Hello everyone, please i got adr for spouse's travel history. Form IMM5562E.
the form states that principal applicant must complete the form and that there is space for principal applicant and spouse and kids 18yrs and above.
Do i have to fill up everything or just fill spouses part since the ADR is for him?

Dizzy007:
Hi, you could simply ask your contact to give you the UPS tracking number so you'll check on UPS website to know when it reachs WES. I doubt if this was done though, my WES verification has been pending since Dec 2017 because of the NASU strike. They told me till they call off strike, nothing can be done.

ArabianRose:
Hi, i was forwarded the tracking number, and it has shown movement this morning. However the transcript process started in mid-December during the strike, i don't know how he pulled it off but am waiting for WES to tell me the have gotten it and perhaps send mail for verification before i believe, because for all i know he can as well package tissue and newspaper in an envelope, send out and pocket the 20,000 i sent him. people are so ambitious these days.

Emmasonic4me:


You can combine all. You first became qualified to teach when you graduated and not after NYSC. Don't forget that you might even skip NYSC based on age. So claim from the teaching experience from primary school all the way to current one.

On the other hand, primary and secondary school teacher and university lecturer all have different NOC codes. So while choosing the ones to use, bear in mind that 3 years gives you the maximum point, unless you needed the extra years towards FSW eligibility.

Please send me a PM ma'am.

I have paid for my IELTS, can you please help me with resourceful and useful free online materials or links to prepare for the test. Please i really would appreciate. Thanks.

I am using my former job which i did from 2012 to 2017 as Admin/HR manager which falls under both noc 0112 and 0114 to claim points for work experience. Is it right to input both nocs ?Has anyone had such experience? My former employer won't issue reference letter as well but I have employment letter and other proofs of employment so I intend getting an affidavit that will state my duties.No other senior person who can testify as to my job roles except for the Md/Ceo who won't issue the reference letter.We didn't have payslips as well but rather credits into bank accounts and I am thinking attaching statements from 2012 to 2017 will be too bulky.Any tips on how to get around this?what are your thoughts on attaching maybe 3 months statement from the beginning and end of each applicable year?
Thanks in anticipation of your responses.
Inputs needed pls.

Hello all, I'm sharing this to encourage others.

I started my journey by considering both Canadian and Australian Immigration but made up my mind to drop Australia movement for that of Canada due to the cost involved, also Canada PR process looked more straight forward to me.

ECA
I decided to use WES for my assessment because I'm an Engineering professional and WES is needed in processing future professional engineering qualifications in Canada, as well as sending transcripts to Canadian Universities in the future. Also, I took the pain to assess both my BEng and MSc degrees (both from Nigerian schools) because of the above reasons.
I started processing my WES application in August 15, 2017 and my WES E-copy report got ready in Nov 30, 2017 (timeline 2.5 months). My WES hardcopy report got to my apartment- delivered by NIPOST on January 4, 2018 (used standard delivery, $7). Although, I have never used the hardcopy.

IELTS
Took my exam on October 14, 2017 and passed on first attempt LRWS 8.5, 8, 7.5, 7.5 (Max point for Express Entry)
-My study tips
I studied for two months (1 month intensive).
I printed the test answer booklets for reading, listening and writing test (got them free online). Reason is because I wanted to simulate typical exam conditions and I also practiced using a stopwatch.
-Listening
I practiced using the Cambridge material from 2016 to the end. A week to my exam, I did two listening test everyday in order to stay sharp. To be honest, I hardly scored 8 during practice and multi choice questions were my weakness so I spent more time at these. During my exam, I followed the audio recording by moving my pencil beneath the sentences on my question sheet in order to constantly stay focused. I ensured I read all instructions carefully.

-Reading
I practiced using all the past questions on General training reading that I could lay my hands on. I ensured I timed myself to finish in 45mins and checked my work with 15mins. I rarely scored 8 during practice. During my exam, I finished under 50mins, checked my work with 10mins(very helpful because I discovered some mistakes, which I corrected).

-Writing
www.ieltsliz.com was a great companion. I adopted all her different essay and letter formats(very helpful). I wrote at least 1 essay per day (most times). I read using a digital dictionary (for looking up words). I practiced with a stopwatch and tried to finished both parts under 50mins so that I could use the 10mins left for checks. During my practice, I knew how many lines I needed to write, to achieve the required minimum number of words (since I used the IELTS answer sheet). During my test, I finished under 45mins and used 15mins for checks.
-Speaking
I practiced using a voice recorder, which made it possible for me to assess myself. Sometimes I practiced in front of my wife (she acted as the examiner). During my test, I had a relaxed conversation with the test official. I tried to expand my speech, such that the examiner always had to stop me.

I noticed that I was more interested in learning/improving my English language skills than just passing the IELTS test. So it turned into a stronger desire for me. I also realised that passing IELTS can only be done by understanding the test (tricks, structure and rules). To understand IELTS one has to learn from tutors such as Liz and then practice what they have learnt.

I spent more time and resources practicing for IELTS because I needed to overcome my weakness. I gave it my time (despite my 9-5 job) and studied as if my life depended on it. I prepared and wrote my test such that my wife (a nursing mother) won't have to write and also save the money.

My CRS is 454 (lost 27 points since I'm married and my spouse didn't write IELTS or did ECA, but it didn't matter)
Created my profile Dec 5, 2017 got ITA Dec 6, 2017.

I'm presently on AOR stage- Jan 12, 2018.
I'll give detailed update on how I packaged my application for submission on a different post.

Special thanks to God for His grace, and everyone who took out time to contribute on this platform.

Godspeed also to all those preparing for IELTS, waiting for ITA or expecting PPR.

It will end in praise!

coolangel54:
I AM WOWED!!! I intend adopting your method because we need to preserve the cash and stress of IELTS and ECA for my hubby. I intend writing the IELTS alone and coming out with flying colours. I REALLY NEED TO PRACTICE INTENSIVELY. My fear though is the POF for two people; a whooping fee of 15,530 Canadian dollars. Only God can help us. It will definitely end in praise!

Don't be bothered about the money, there are so many hurdles to cross before you get there, start, I haven't seen anyone who didn't make it cos POF is not available (Not necessarily saying there'd been none, I just haven't seen). Focus on the immediate hurdles to be crossed, I tell you those are more than POF, the WES struggle, the IELTS, when you get to POF bridge, you'll cross it. Fear not Sister.

Waiting for the CRS score of Today's draw like

Can I claim CRS 15 points for my hubby's sister who lives in Ontario. Their relationship is not direct but they share the same Grandmother. The said Grandmother gave birth to my father-in-law's father and the woman's (in Ontario) grandmother. They donot share the same surname because she is a woman and you know women change their surname once married. PLEASE IS IT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO CLAIM THE 15 POINTS? We have told her and she agreed to do it. What are some of the documents she is required to fill or provide?
