Yes,they use headsets

Exam venue is Vine International school,Tombia extension,GRA.

Justice179:

I want to know if they use headset for their listening@MOD center Ph. As for my writing, I was expecting a minimum of 7.5 or worst case 7. The exam coordinator wrote my candidate number on a paper during writing because he said I was holding my pencil after he said pencils down. However, he told me I won't be penalised when I meet him later after the test. I can't tell if I was later penalised

So what can I do? I just got married in May. My IELTS results is S-7, R-8.5, W-7.5, L-8. I have gotten my report from WES for B.Sc.. I also have 3 years work experience and I am 28 which automatically makes me the PA. But hubby's highest qualification is WAEC and his IELTS is extremely bad...Our CRS as a couple is 413 but if I apply as a Single lady, it is 435. We were contemplating me applying as a single lady. Please can anyone advise on what we can do?
Thanks

Try to get a PGD by the time you done you will still be under 30,and CRS would be above 445
Or you can decide to take TEF

Only advice I have for now is don't apply as single when you're married.

These days, having only BSc won't get you to the cut-off scores. Do you have any other qualifications you can access? ND, NCE, PGD etc. If not, you might want to consider enrolling in one asap.
You're 28, you could be done with it by the time you're 30.
Or if you guys are loaded, sponsor one of your/hubby's siblings and then claim the 15 points
Re: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program- Connect Here Part 5 by jelmusboy(m): 12:25pm On Nov 10, 2018
Apply as a single lady and get banned or if you sail through, say bye bye to your husband

Mm. Don't think so. I think you can easily explain moving money around your accounts to get higher interest.
But calculate the difference in interest, is it worth the hassle?

Hi Guys

I have a question.
I discovered Sterling bank has a higher interest rate than the bank I use. Would it be a red flag if the bank i use is diffrent from the bank for fixed deposit ?

In addition to the above, the option you are looking for is called "spouse unaccompanying", it calculates your points as if you are a single. However, 435 is still not enough to get you to the promised land. Do as others have advised.

In addition to the advice you've been given, you can try the PNP route. I don't know so much about it but o know you qualify with your CRS of 435
Re: Canadian Express Entry/Federal Skilled Workers Program- Connect Here Part 5 by Hephgirl: 12:46pm On Nov 10, 2018

Although it's not sending matter o.
TEECANN:


Send both but I doubt it whether the visa vignette will be stamped into any of your US citizen kids.

The US citizen kid will most likely be issued CoPR and eTA approval.(as US citizens don't need visas to enter into Canada except filling of a simple questionnaire called eTA)

Whilst you (a Nigerian citizen) will be issued a 1 entry PRvisa and CoPR.

You don't have anything to loose, send all passports in and come back to educate us after you receive your CoPR.

It will end in praise IJN!

Below is my timeline
Decision to travel August 2017.
Family of 5
Visa office: initially London, moved to kyiv in August.
IELTS: September 2017.
My IELTS was written once and was perfect 9,8,8,8.
Spouse IELTS 7.5,7.5,7,7

Then silence. Not even a single ADR.
Ordered 1st GCMS notes April 2018 everything looked perfect.
Then complete silence.
Ordered 2nd GCMS notes July 2018, this never arrived
Wrote Raplh who confirmed Eligibility and Security not yet started.
More silence, not even a ghost update
October 3rd 2018 ordered 3rd set of GCMS notes. Arrived Nov. 1st. Still same as April notes. My file had not been touched since March 2018. Eligibility and Security not yet started.
Wrote a 3rd mail to Ralph on Nov 4th who was gracious enough to respond (Ralph responds only once). He confirmed that my eligibility and security was not yet started and my application cannot be expedited.
Nov 8th, like a dream ! my PPR!

Checked email and profile this morning and saw nothing.

By 2pm during my lunch break, I saw a mail notification, I wanted to ignore but decided to check.

I saw a mail from donotreply@cic.gc.ca that I have an update on my profile. I was excited, that finally I am getting a ghost update / adr.

I logged into my cic acct and saw my profile was updated. I was so excited,thinking it was just a ghost update and that finally my file was receiving attention. I wanted to log out but I felt the nudge to proceed and click on view complete application which I did.

Nothing seemed to have changed, my background check was still in process, I was about to log out again, when I felt that urge to scroll further down to the mail section.

I saw I had a new mail, titled request letter. I already concluded that it was an ADR for fresh bank statement. Love and behold, it was the almighty PPR.

I wasn't expecting it to come without an ADR for updated POF since my application had been pending for almost 10months. I lost appetite immediately, and was was just screaming. I couldn't share the news with my colleagues, so I just lied to them that my husband got a new job!�.

I am immensely grateful to God Almighty who did not put me to shame. Delay is not denial. Though it tarries, it must surely come.

Thank you all for all the love and support.

Off to take my pictures and submit tomorrow.

This year has been so challenging. hubby and I lost our jobs, all our money tied at POF, we were feeding from Hand to mouth and struggled to pay school fees. Infact this September, we had to change their schools to a very cheap school.

God bless you all.

I just called WES now because of this argument and the lady made me understand that the ECA evaluation package comes with the ICAP advantage automatically. This means that WES will store my verified transcripts in their database for life.

So if i want to upgrade to a course by course evaluation, i will pay 100cad after now and my evaluation will be upgraded but that WES can ask for my WAEC if i have not submitted previously.

She also said i should not have sent the scratch card as WAEC is still required to verify the results by email before WES can accept it. Its like the scratch card policy has not been finetuned.

@ Canadianxmas. After an upgrade to course by course, normally the system would require all docs - previous certificates and transcripts would be listed as awaiting. All you need to do is send a mail through the "contact us" quoting your previous reference number, where your docs have been stored, requesting for the docs to be attached to your new upgrade. You can also put a call across to ensure it is done without delay. Remember, you'd be required to add waec since it's a new policy and scratch card doesn't replace verification mail from waec yet.

Hi All,

I took the IELTS exam on Oct 27th for the first time and below are my results:

Listening: 9.0
Reading: 9.0
Speaking: 9.0
Writing: 7.5

I spent less than 5 hours in total preparing for this exam and I focused only on speaking & writing as I was told those were the difficult sections.

I only watched YouTube videos and recommend the IELTS videos by Jay for writing & IELTS videos by Liz for speaking.

Also for writing make sure to use FANBOYS (For/As/Nor/But/Or/Yet/So) in addition to the complex words Jay will give you.

Good Luck!!!

I guess you mean going alone that's spouse unaccompanying, then sponsoring your husband later... It's not a bad idea IMO seeing your husband's highest qualification is WAEC and his IELTS so bad... But the problem is that 435 may not get you ITA going by the current trend...

You can retake ielts to know if you can max out the scores thus putting you at 441 (then you apply as spouse unaccompanying) or you get an additional certificate or diploma to get marks for two or more cert or masters too (with this you can get enough marks to cover you and your husband )

I wish you the best
