Well, I paid ICES with my stanbic debit card. Someone else did theirs too with a debit card.
Just proceed with the payment and enter your card's details. I received the debit alert 2 days after my payment though.

LONG POST ALERT.

I promised to get back wt my story and here I am.
My Canada journey started August, 2016.
I used WES for my ECA and it was smooth.

IELTS JOURNEY:
I sat for IELTS 5 times as below
1st attempt BC, 04/03/2017: L7.5 R6.5 W7.0 S7.5
2nd attempt BC, 08/04/2017: L7.5 R7.5 W6.5 S7.0
3rd attempt BC, 11/11/2017: L7.5 R9.0 W7.5 S6.5
4th attempt MOD, 03/03/2018: L8.5 R9.0 W6.5 S7.0
5th attempt MOD, 12/05/2018: L8.5 R8.5 W7.0 S7.5

I tackled the first one with maximum confidence but I lost the confidence after the 2nd attempt couldn’t yield 8777. At that point, I ran to nairaland to seek for assistance. After BC spoilt my result the 3rd time (Speaking =6.5), I resorted to MOD. I tried my best the 4th time which yielded almost a useful result except for writing. I paid 46k + for remark but it came back same way. Unfortunately, I hardly had time to prepare for more than 3 weeks cos of the natural of my work. At this point I was already getting discouraged and asking if I’m destined for Canada or not.
I wrote the almighty and popular 12/05/2018 MOD IELTS exam which wasn’t well organized. After all the efforts, I lost courage and at that point I felt I should look for a lady that needs a guy so that we could … so I got a lady’s nos after d exam. When d result came out, I cried cos it was the truly the worst of all I wrote but God turned it to be the most useful of all. At that point I knew God is involved.

POF
With the help of God, I worked on this smartly, and I made sure no fund more than 250k was deposited into that account (at once), in d last one year. Thus, I wrote no LOE, Gift deed… and I wasn’t questioned. I submitted Acct Statement, general reference letter from the Bank and also the Bank reference in CIC format.

MEDICALS
I used IOM at Ikeja and it went well.

ITA TO PPR
My M.Sc Certificate wasn’t ready cos Unilag kept shifting the Convocation ceremony. Though I had used Attestation for WES evaluation, I needed the Certificate after ITA. As they always say, delay is not denial. As at the time IELTS was delaying me, Unilag refused to do Convocation and the same month Unilag had the Convocation ceremony (I guess), the same month I passed IELTS. After then, everything happened so fast. Little bit of delay gathering my documents, but God surprised me.

I got the Biometrics letter on the 12/09/2018 and I captured it on Monday, 17/09/2018. My people, I sent a mail to my agent on 20/09/2018 to update me on the Biometrics, and what I got was d PPR letter. The letter was actually dated 19/09/2018, meaning I actually got PPR after 2 days.

My people it could only have been God at work. Many other challenges, many aspects I won’t be able to touch. Pls do not be discouraged. Cast all your cares upon God. I fasted and prayed and God delivered me. I trust God for u also. I lost days and months through IELTS but God made the last part a testimony.

For those preparing for IELTS; Study, study and study hard. There are many materials available on this platform. Youtube is also there for you. I will also suggest u use ieltsliz.com. Wonderful website.

Though I used agent, I had been on this thrend from Part 1 till now, quietly reading everything possible. I learnt a lot from here and wondereful people are here to help.

I thank you all for your love and support. We will all triumph.

TIMELINE:
IELTS = 12/05/2018
ITA = 13/06/2018
AOR = 11/08/2018
MEP = 12/09/2018
Biometrics Captured= 17/09/2018
PPR letter = 19/09/2018

This was his quote

2016

------

In 2016, the lowest CRS score drawn was 453, and more than half (55 per cent) of candidates who received an ITA in 2016 had core CRS scores of less than 450.


Approximately 6,000 of these candidates had core CRS scores lower than 300.
Cohen is a law firm with integrity. But then again it's a business and a law business at that, so they present the truth to you and sometimes leave it in an ambiguous form.

Note that he used the bolded......CORE CRS. So you should understand what a core CRS is.
Example core CRS is 300 and u add mpnp nomination of 600 points, that makes u to get an ITA even with a low "core crs".

Hy, do WES accept WAEC only I asked because i used my NECO for secondary school evaluation & am done with the form filling. Intend paying the cad $207 tomorrow . $200 evaluation fee while $7 to send the report to me here in Naja. Although i saw an option of cad $85 to send the report through UPS, that will be faster but high so i opt for $7 delivery fee. Plz huz i hope there won't be any issues to that effect. Thanks
veleta:

Ok thanks but how long did yours take for verification?

I was just thinking,why can't WES borrow a leaf from German Consulate,what they request for is WAEC or NECO scratch card/pin from applicants instead of this back and forth verification.
I don't think it's age discrepancy that they are interested in,I think it's the authenticity of the result because some transcripts don't have date of birth like Unizik.

Hy everyone, still wish to asked this question here. The date of birth i used getting admission into higher institution some years back isn't what i am using presently in my international passport and other important official documents, although i hv document backing the current age. Like birth certificate from national population commission & age declaration affidavit. My question is this during evaluation of my credentials with WES, won't the date of birth i filled on WES online form contradicts the date of birth on my transcript to be sent to WES. Although i don't kw yet if my school includes date of birth on transcript. Please what measures do i take to clear myself on this issues.

My own thought is this, may be while sending my photocopy certificates to WES I may also include court affidavit of declaration of age stating that any other DOB sent contrary to this here is a mistake & i will also includes the photocopy of national population commission birth certificate.

Please hus i need,ur own professional advice & procedure on how to tackle this issues.

Thanks,

Good day Peeps, pls I want to get clarification on the best agency(IQAS, WES OR ICAS) to use for ECA for a polytechnic graduate with ND and HND in Mass Communication.

Thank you very much

If you use WES, you will pay $207 for the 2 certificates but you must also evaluate your WAEC/NECO.

WES also needs to send verification email/mail to your school & WAEC/NECO. This is where the time wasting lies.

If you use ICES, you will pay $200 for each certificate plus $75 for international shipping, making it $475 (in your case).

ICES doesnt request the evaluation of your WAEC/NECO. They dont send verification email like WES. They also allow your school to send your transcript to them via official email address.

Forget IQAS & ICAS...they are time 'wasters.'

NECO is accepted too, it's right there on the WES website. Standard delivery is fine, you'll not even need the hard copy. The soft copy you'll download is sufficient for the EE process.
