All this while, I thought the Evaluation report was supposed to be sent to only me and then I upload when CIC requests for it.

Now I am reading about sending to immigration.

So confused.

Hi, there's nothing to be confused about... Once you're doing ECA which is for immigration, your report will automatically be sent to IRCC electronically. You don't pay for it neither do you fill any address for it, WES knows how they send it to them... I think it's this report that IRCC uses to confirm the one you upload after ITA.

All the best.

In the spirit of Christmas guys,

anyone with a QLIFE spot for 30th November willing to swap with January 29th, kindly PM me and if you are a single applicant, I am willing to pay the extra charge for you to take yours at IOM so I and my family can use your spot at Qlife to save us some.

I am married and i got my degrees before i got married. So am i meant to use the name on my passport(husband name) to register for ECA or the name on my certifcate (father name). thank you

Register with Married surname NAME ON PASSPORT for anything you do, you are female and married - maiden name or previus surname would always be asked (Its universal. There is a place WES will ask which name is on your certificates (DO NOT FORGET TO FILL IT) there you put the names as it appears on your cert (Maiden name)

Je m'appelle Ramj

On this IELTS issue...my two cents.

1. Stick to a FEW practice materials! The number of materials for IELTS that we see on a daily on this thread can be overwhelming. Try out only a few and stick to the one that resonates with you. Don't use ieltsliz, Jay, Cambridge, ieltsadvantage, road2ielts etc at the same time (some of these peope don't agree on the same approach and reading all can get really confusing). If you try one and it sits well with you, ditch others. Focus on that one and be a master of it. I almost got overwhelmed at some point, because l wanted to open every link or try every material l saw here. But l had to give myself brain oh.

2. Practise everyday. No excuses. Create the time. Even at work, you can use your lunch break to practise. Instead of listening to music or radio on your way to work, listen to your downloaded tips on writing, speaking, reading, listening. When walking down the streets, have an earpiece on (l hate this, but we can make sacrifices for one month abi?) and keep LISTENING. At weekends, practice speaking with your wife/husband, friend, son/daughter etc. Write out questions and tell them to ask you (under exam conditions). I finished a WHOLE 30 leaves notebook for listening practice (yeah l work an 8 to 5 and live on the mainland with my office on the island -remember, no excuses!). Always check your wrong answers and replay those portions and find out what you didn't hear properly. I used youtube for listening/speaking/reading.

3. There's this ielts expert too, one Ryan (cannot remember his surname) that l think is underrated. I used his tips for writing. He talks about 15 sentences max for writing. 3 paragraphs with 4 sentences and the closing paragraph should have 3 sentences. This keeps you in check and you already know what to write before the exam, all you will be waiting for on the ielts day is the topic given! I can share his materials if you drop your email address.
For writing, write letter and essays! Don't read what someone else wrote. Write yours too. Some people practise writing by reading another's work -WRONG! write yours too and compare. Minimum letters to write on different topics - 10. Minimum essays - 20. Revise your work and look for better ways to reconstruct your sentences. I suggest you write with pencil on your exam day so you can erase if need be.

4. For reading - use youtube. It also has a timer, so practice using the time and don't stop the timer or pause the video. The easiest comprehension in reading are the first two. Spend less time there. Say 5 mins tops for each. You do not need to UNDERSTAND nada. Just look at the instructions (very important), then the questions, then scroll through the passages for the answers. You need all your time for the last two passages. They are more technical.

5. For speaking - Be confident, relaxed and know your basic english and introduction (see ieltsliz). See this as an interview. We all attend interviews don't we? I got a list of 42 likely cue cards from ieltsliz blog (l think she said they change it every 3 months but she always update the cue card questions) and l practiced the 42 different topics and l always set my two minutes timer with my phone. You can be in the BRT or your car and practice this one, or when walking down the street or whilst doing chores at home, or lying down in your bed doing nothing (l did this. Some days, people will think you are going crazy because you are talking to yourself, but...who no go no know). One of the 42 questions l practiced was my cue card during my speaking test -something on my pet animal (l was wondering "madam why me? Animal kwa?" but because l had practised earlier, the examiner had to cut me off when it was two minutes. I just went on and on.

4. Lastly and certainly not the least...the place of PRAYER. I'm catholic, so when l saw the prayer to St. Joseph of Cupertino here, l made a mental note to say it. I started saying it every day from September till i wrote my exam on the 1st of November. I even added a 9 days St. Joseph of Cupertino novena with prayer and fasting which ended on the 31st of October (l'm that extra oh. I left no chances). I asked my family to add me in their prayers too. So, pray, pray and pray. Whatever works for you. Someone dropped one St. prayer here on financial assistance for POF, best believe l'll look for that prayer and do it too!

5. People have done it, you too can. Don't be discouraged if you have tried more than once. We don't give up on this thread oh. Being here has taught me a different level of selflessness and never say never spirit. People you don't even know are quick to help and empathise and l am still in awe of you guys.

6. Please drop your email address so l can send the Ryan materials to you.

This too shall pass!

All the best everyone and my apologies for the long post.

For the Ryan materials pls,

Newmum0615:
How many agents know anything?

Newmum0615, please I am trying to reach. I have sent you an e-message please.

First time here and I have tried to read all the way from 2013 threads, it is really interesting.

The core question I am having is that how much in naira must one have to process all stages and land in Canada. All the way from international passport to the destination in Canada, how much in total as at 2018

One have to know the financial aspects then compare it to his financial status.

This is my first time considering traveling out of the country after Bsc. In economics, NYSC and all the ordeals I have experienced searching for jobs and attending several interviews but only not to be offered based on who referred you here.

And to make thing worst, I was offered 15k salary + 800 daily for transport as a Revenue collector that majorly involved going from local govt to another to collect due and levy. It doesn't worth it.

I know nethier me nor my family is capable to sponsor this dream. I just want to know beforehand, who knows, a messiah may come my way that will sponsor or borrow me and I pay later.

As I am still hunting for the job, please consider me whenever anyone here is referring a potential employee to a prospective employee.

Thanks.

So so sorry my most admirable senior. It won't happen again......smiles

You can create your EE profile if you have your IELTS results (without the trf). But you will need to upload the TRF in your application (i.e. after you get your ITA).

Trying to create my own profile. But it's asking for the certificate number. Can I just input my registration number. Then update it with the certificate post ITA.
