Claire40:
Have your sorted this out? I think 4112 fits. My reference letter(NOC 4112) did not have a long JD. It simply stated that her duties include advising the organization on legal matters, drafting and reviewing of contracts and other documents and giving of legal opinions. On my GCMS notes, the case analyst wrote letter appears to confirm employment and provides a job description that is consistent with the lead statement and main duties as set out in the declared NOC category

Thank you so much Claire, I appreciate the response. I will go with NOC4112. I sent you a pm, if you don't mind.

Thanks,will do that.

Are you sure you calculated this well including skills transferability? Age is on your side and you scored a clb 9 in 2 aspects and a clb 10(speaking) and 12 (reading)

https://www.centennialcollege.ca/programs-courses/centres-institutes/ielts-test-centre/test-results/canadian-language-benchmarks/

Use the above link to know your clb score in each aspect

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/criteria-comprehensive-ranking-system/grid.html

And this link to manually calculate your score. The crs tool I don't think has the skills transferability mark and that's like a 100 extra. This is where the importance of having a good ielts score comes into play.

Congratulations. I thank God for you.

I needed to please ask how long it took IQAS to evaluate your credentials and got back to you.

I can’t use WES also because they do not accept the institution where I did my HND even though I have a BSc. (1year top up)

I’m trying to gather as much information and help to aid me on my application.

Many thanks

The full story.
I did my ielts in October 2017 with LRWS 8.5,8.5,7.5,7.5.
I evaluated only my MBA from Uniport with Iqas because I did not want to pay the school 100usd for Wes verification.I was already annoyed at having to cough out about 50k for the transcript itself.
I created a profile and entered the pool same month with a score of 434 hoping that scores come down like in early 2017.I applied with accompanying spouse.When after a couple of draws and no luck,I spoke with hubby about writing Ielts and he willingly accepted but wouldn't prepare.I needed to get the ITA and submit my application as soon as possible from Nigeria cos I was leaving soon for my research and I wanted to get done with it and face other stuff.He did his exam in January 2018.I can't remember his exact scores but he didn't do so well as per maxing out but he was able to add 12 points to my score and I was at 446.We didn't need to evaluate his credentials because I knew that ielts alone would boost crs scores going by the trend.
I started gathering docs and getting ready for the next draw but I couldn't get employment letter in Cic format or any format from my last employment.My boss blatantly refused without a good reason.i had my employment letter and disengagement letter and a few other corresponces my name was on during my stint with the firm.Salary was also paid into bank account with company name.I did an affidavit outliningy duties.I also got a former colleague to attest for me citing my roles and he did.I ran with these docs,highlighted my salary credits and also got salary schedule from my contact in the firm where my name was on.I also did a letter of explanation stating I was unable to get reference letter in their format
Pof was two treasury bills which I used without any other letter neither did I include bank statements.
We did our medicals at Prime hospitals in Ph.
Hubby's work experience was outlined in personal history.
Aor was Feb 14th.
Medicals passed was noticed on Feb 23
Ip2 was on the mass movement of Feb 27
I also thought like others that ppr was very close. I made enquiries on my application office and it was LVO.I knew I had to take a chill pill and sit back.
In April,i ordered gcms notes of about 190 pages and everything was fine.Even my employment record that gave me stress was noted as "letter appears to confirm employment".
However, at the beginning of July,I decided to inform LVO of my change in address and informing them my dependents were still in Nigeria for them to take note of when asking us to send our passports.I also decided to inform them of a peculiar problem my family face and my desire for us all to leave soon and not face the problem again this year.I also attached evidence.When I was writing them,i informed my hubby and he wasn't so sure I should tell them because it might seem like we are running away or something.I told him we are economic migrants and economic migrants are running to a better life, so they already know most people are desperate to leave.He said OK.I was convinced to tell them because I understand how they work and what I was telling them was verifiable truth and is reason enough to make them look into my application and make a decisuon.
I got a mail a few days later acknowledging my change in address and stating my application was awaiting review.On the 11th of July, I got adr for rprf,hubby's proof of employment even though it was in personal history but una sabi LVO things nahhh,provenance if funds in investment account and account statements dating back one year,and what my research is on and when I left the country.
I sought help here after having problems making the payment which was rendered by you sweet souls.I made the payment and supplied the needed info.
For provenance, I only supplied the one year statements and explained I had collapsed my TBs on maturity and invested into fixed deposits as it had a higher interest rate then.i also supplied the fixed deposit certs.I supplied these on the 13th if July.My research is also related to the problem I told them about which I don't want to share here and I believe that convinced them further even though I had already supplied evidence.
I was about going to bed with a headache and my sister on the bed with me was snoring frustrating my efforts to sleep and I asked her to change position in order to stop snoring.I picked up my phone to check the time and I had a mail from Cic.I knew it was ppr but one mind was skeptical saying let it not be another adr or something and I managed to log in and it was the LETTER.
I informed my family and told u guys.I was to go back to sleep but my sister encouraged me to finish reading and managed to finish reading it.Guven that we are now submitting via VACs,i will simply submit at the vac here while my family will submit theirs at home.
I encourage all of us not to despair no matter the obstacles as most obstacles are surmountable.
I will submit my passport within the week and update you on how that goes.Good luck to us all and excuse any typos.I am rushing to type this and leave as I am already running late and I don't want to keep those awaiting the gist in Limbo.

Uzoreen:
Thanks everyone for your kind words. God bless you all.

.

Thanks for your response.Yes,his NOC falls under one of the accepted NOCs for skilled experience.

smslive2:
Yes he can use it as long as the work experience falls under NOC Skill Type 0, A or B

ysteph:
If the RC No. of both companies are different, then it is two different companies.
What this means is that you didn't start working in the 2nd company in 2011.(Hmmm....i hope this is not taken as misrepresentation.)
I don't know what CAC document the company has presently.
Check to see if it is evidence of change of name or evidence of Registration.
Just explain accordingly.
Normally when a company changes from Plc to Ltd, the RC No. is not suppose to change.
If a company changes its name, the RC No. will remain the same.
Your explanation should be based on what documents you have.
In addition to either evidence of registration or change of name documents, the Board Resolution where the directors agreed to change the name of the company or re - register it for a reason should be given to you. That will show that, it is the same alter ego.
Meanwhile, there is what is called re - registration, i don't think that is what applies here.

wow, this feels somehow. so are you telling me I could have collected 2 different reference letters from the same company because they re-registered and upgraded their CAC Registration. This never occurred to me while filling the ITA and submitting my application. I have ordered GCMS note though. thanks

I believe an explanation should suffice. There's really no big deal. Except the VO just wants to be difficult. However, take every document you can when going for the interview. You'll be fine. Fear not.

joo2018:
The international passport is your primary means of identification.

Either you raise another passport or use it as it is. IELTS only accepts international passport.

Thanks for your prompt response, I have gone through allvthe links above,I must confess it was really helpful, but do you feel it's needed to change my surname on my international passport if I have the opportunity to do? Cos am so concerned, my marriage certificate reads another surname from the international passport,I just wanted a smooth application process. Your personal opinion now. God bless

Hello House,
Please enlighten a sister.
I have a work experience from 2015 till date which is over 3yrs experience and that’s my required NOC but my challenge is that I have worked in 2 different places pre-university from 2011-2014, do I need to state the pre-university work experience in my work history? plus I can’t get any documents from my pre-uni jobs. Please note that this jobs started full time during university strikes (u know as naija be) and ended up switching to part time whenever school resumes...
Please help!!!!!!!!!

Ps: I have used the 2 pre-uni Jobs to apply for a US and Canadian visitors visa before, the earlier was issued and the later was denied.

Thanks

Newmum0615:
Congratulations. Good news flowing again this morning.

Yours is coming soon newmum0615
We will throw party here.

Any job you list you should be able to defend with evidence.
Since you have gotten your 3yrs and the jobs are pre-uni,
I think you should leave it alone.

Newbie, pls who knows the best body for credential evaluation for Optometrists. Is there any Optometrists on the thread or any other link I could use to come in contact with Optometrists on this Canada dream.

Their turnaround time then was about 12 weeks after receiving all the credentials and transcripts. It took about that.Their website will have the current info.

No but on CIC Web site, precisely on the this link

But to be on the safe side sail with the tide

deesmama:
Hi Medal,please Did you get this info from your GCMS notes?

pilarnig:
Please how did you go about the payment
?
I also want to pay and evaluate my mac and my wife's bsc

paid via gtb master-card.

Phantomcole:
Hi guys,

I’m new here, great input from everyone...God bless you all - Heroes without capes

I’m sorry, I posted earlier but I did not get answers, is why I am rephrasing because I need urgent help.

I finished from Aptech with an Advance Diploma with is equivalent to an HND and I got an admission into Middlesex University final year (A 1year top up to get a BSc) of which I’m through with and have my degree certificate.

I wanted to start my evaluation, whiles I do other things like IELTS and the rest.

I sent an email to both schools demanding they forward my certificate to WES and they are ready to do that. Then, I got on WES to create my profile and get my reference number for evaluation but they did not accept Aptech and I’m not sure if they can evaluate only my Middlesex certificate because they will demand for previous education.

Do I go through IQAS - Has anyone here with an Aptech and Middlesex Certificate used them before?...so my application is not rejected. Wasted funds and time.

Or

Which other accepted evaluation body can I use for EE?

Or

What can be a recommend thing I can do, or how can go about this...

I need to clear this before I can write IELTS, and then create my profile, so I’m pretty just starting.

I have read almost all the Part 1-4 my eyes and head hurts to be honest please I need help.

Thanks everyone, I will be most grateful.

They don't ask for previous education.
Your certificate is Bsc they don't want to know if you did 3 years in aptech . I did same with you too and I have completed my ECA with WES. If what you are trying to know is whether you can claim 2 or more certificate with aptech, the answer is NO. because aptech is not on WES

Personal opinion:
Use the passport as it is and raise an affidavit if any of your other documents bear the other name. Replacement of name on passport na another project with NIS.

Good Morning all, please I need some advise regarding my POF.

According to CIC the POF for a family of 6 is approximately $30,000 cad ( *300 = it should come up to 9,000,000).

I have a treasury bill of 10,000,000. Is it safe ? Or i should include hubby’s dorm account statement where he have some dollars?

Thanks

Your N10m worth of Treasury Bills is just more than enough. You are good to go.

You are cool with the 10M TB @ 300 naira per CAD, unless you just want to add the extra hubby dorm account for adding sake.
Enjoy.
