Do you still need the number?

Please what and what is the required for the passport thanks

When I was preparing for ielts, I subscribed to roadtoielts and I found out that in informal essays they only want to see abbreviations like I'ld for I would, I'll for I will, infact it was stated that you will lose marks if this abbreviations are not used. That's what differentiates an informal essay form a formal one, as the addresses also reflects the type of essay you're writing.

Even after typing it, I knew it looked wrong. If you could kindly provide the correct abbreviation, I'll modify.
Thanks

Share the question you're answering. The question is as important as the answer.

I wasn't particularly answering a question. I just used the informal letter style to describe my need for a tutor on the forum for my writing.

You can evaluate only the PGD and combine both reports.

Thanksna lot

When I did mine in Abeokuta last year, they only requested for some passport photographs, my birth certificate and a document that I can't remember, but I didn't have it and they still did it anyway.

Don't look at it that way. PGD brings in extra 33 points when evaluated alongside B.Sc while masters as a standalone or otherwise brings home extra 40points when compared against B. Sc only.

Some first degree of holders aren't allowed to start masters straight up. Eg if you have B. Sc in Biochemistry, you only go for PGD in Information Technology before MIT, it is only 7 or 8 points you will lose.

This example you use is very wrong except its peculiar to the school you intend to do the masters, I have a BSC in Biochemistry and I have my masters, likewise I have friends from my department with masters in public health in Unilag. So the analogy is wrong. Although, am aware that there are courses that wont allow you go for masters straight away but I strongly feel its applicable when it's a HND course, I stand to be corrected.
Let her carry out more researhes, she should be able to have a headway. ��

Goodluck

I guess you missed out the Word "SOME". Moreover, he was only giving an example. To say he is wrong is wrong in itself

Go to modify family information at the top of the page,u can edit from there

Thank God, you finally made it.
Trust me! Your PPR will come in a month. Amen! 10x

I just want to thank everyone who encouraged me after my emotional outburst last year, in part 6, about being frustrated after writing ielts unsuccessfully and was stuck in 6.5 writing after six attempts in nine months. I was encouraged to give it a break, practice well and take the exam again, which I did (someone even volunteered to contribute to my registration fee). Thankfully, I passed this time around! L:8.5, R:8.5, S:8.0 W:7.0.

I am so grateful to this wonderful family, it wouldn't have been possible without you guys!


That said, please I want to ask, how can someone claim points for an employment he was paid cash? I worked in a small company where I was paid cash. The employer didn't issue any pay slip and I don't have any proof on my end other than my employment letter. How do I go about it? Because this job is crucial to my eligibility in terms of continuous work experience.

Once again, thanks every one!

Please help out here, I want to use my NECO result, have 8 Credits and 1 D7 in Chemistry, does it matter?

Your grade doesnt matter. Age doesnt matter too because NECO won't send DoB. I think WES wants to know if you finished secondary school. You can PM me for the NECO official's contact in Minna.

I think you wanted to write IT Diploma programs organized by BCS

Hello house.
My ex employer gave me pay slips for an employment that I was paid cash. However, there is no deduction on the pay slip as my ex employer didn't deduct anything from my earnings (not even tax). I recall him telling a tax official that I was an intern then, so they didn't bother about my tax payment.

I just want to be sure this won't count against me if IRCC asks for pay slips

I served in a state ministry which I'm using as work experience. I only submitted the ref letter in cic format and account statement showing salary payment. I wasn't given any payslip. Hope this won't be an issue cos I'm seeing some payslip request from applicants by cic

The responsibility for tax deduction as a full employee lies with your employer, not you. You would not be penalised if your employer does not make the necessary deductions. The issue with taxes in this process occurs mostly with self-employed individuals or freelancers who are required to file taxes themselves with the tax office. At least that is how their system works here (which the VO might bear in mind).

Also the issues I have seen with respect to taxes are those of inlanders because IRCC have access to their tax information, on request. They do not have the legal right to request yours as a foreigner to begin to investigate.

You do not need to worry. But if it will give you peace of mind, you can write an LOE (although it is not necessary in my opinion. Explaining this makes you look guilty and makes them focus attention on something they might not even have thought of).

Pls I need help o. Been following this thread since last month.

1. I urgently need a passport for my new born baby. Lagos,no booklets ever since. I have been hearing about Abeokuta... Anyone with contact should have mercy and send me the contact via email. scapular4africa@yahoo

Pls help.

I’m in the same shoes. Applied since mid February. I wonder if it’s possible to reapply at another location. Did you apply in Lagos?

vickyehi:

yea

Hello, Pls I sent u a pm.pertaining to the Canadian address for ices assessment.

I think it won't be an issue for you. Account statements are the best as POP. Payslips and salary certificates are alternatives for people who were paid in cash for the period of employment, in addition to LOE, since they cannot manufacture bank statements.

I think that person did not provide any proof of payment at all, only reference letters, hence the request.

Oh okay. Just asked because a big part of hitting the right score lies in if you actually answered all aspects of the question. All the best!

IRCC only requests for reference letter and payslips (if available). This ranks payslips higher than all other forms of proof and makes them relevant for everyone regardless of how you received your salary.

ladymarshall:
In addition to previous advice, see further corrections below:

Beware of contractions (I'm, you're etc). You over-used them. Try not to get used to them. I understand they are ok for informal letters, but many times, it is not easy to make the conscious switch from contractions to writing them in full when you have to write formal. Stick to non-contracted verb forms and it will work well for you in both formal and informal. The way you used them here would give the impression that you do not know how to use verbs in non-contracted forms.

How is the new job? (remove "coming along" )

"Platform" is incorrect here, I think you mean "location" (maybe "branch" could also work)

Write MOD/IDP in full. If you are to use abbreviations, the first mention of it should be written in full. Subsequent mentions can be abbreviated.

Good points for using "feverishly" appropriately. Continue in that manner. Do not keep it simple. Use big grammar, but use it well. Show the examiner that you can write comfortably using uncommon words.

"writing", W should not be in caps (or "Writing Module", so we know you are referring to a proper noun)

Your 3rd sentence, paragraph 2 is great. That is complex sentence (mixed with a question). Please write more sentences like this one.

I am assuming you meant "halt" not "hilt", but remove "to a halt", it sounds colloquial, just write "you're busy"

Technically, "targeting" is correct. But it just does not sound nice when it is written. It sounds better when speaking (Mind you, you must be careful not to write exactly how you speak, some words/sentences sound great when you speak but less desirable when you write them). Maybe it is just me overthinking it. Personally, I would write "I strongly desire a 7.5 score"

paper-based (with an hypen)

handwritten (in one word)/hand-written (Be careful of words like this)

"it's", not "its" (the apostrophe makes all the difference in both words, again, avoid contractions if you can)

I think what you mean is "electronic devices", as against pen and paper. Keep in mind equal comparisons/weightings in comparative sentences.

Avoid simple sentences as much as you can. The last bolded parts could be rewritten as "I hope you understand but I would make my handwriting as legible as possible, although it would take a great deal of effort on my part. I am really counting on you to assist me because this exam is a make or break test for me, especially since passing it would make my dreams of migrating to Canada come through." (flesh up your sentences so you can make them complex)

Your last sentence has a weird construction and is not good. You can rewrite it as "I woud like to send you my practice tests on Whatsapp, however, if you consider it too personal or inconvenient, I can send it via email or other messaging platforms suggested by you" (Note I ended the sentence with a passive noun clause). Combining different types of sentences proves to the reader that you have a good grasp of the language. Using transitional words transforms your sentences from basic to complex which would score you points.

This link has a great repertoire of transitional words which I still consult when I write in my job http://writing2.richmond.edu/writing/wweb/trans1.html

"Thanks a bunch" is too colloquial even for spoken English. Just write "Thanks in advance" or "Thanks very much" or "Thank you".

Also, do not take punctuations for granted. There should be a comma in front of "Dear friend" and "Best wishes".

I got an 8 in writing, so this advice is not the best you can get. Perhaps there are those who got 8.5/9 in writing that can give superior advice. Also, when practicing, target scoring 9 in all the modules and practice hard for those scores (lol, I used the word "target" ). Usually, we tend to score lower than what our targeted scores. If you practice hard for a 9, you might end up getting an 8.5 or 8 in writing. In addition, please spend more time, thought and mental energy practicing task 2 and write impeccably even during your practice tests.

Kudos madam, please would you be willing to help critic my essays. If yes please do help me with your email address.

Wasseynewest is doing a tremendous job but he is busy with other things so might not have extra time for my personal essays except for the group assignments.

Thank you for a positive anticipated response ��
