Good morning Topsmamen, i just creasted an account with Wes, but i got a pop up message, saying WES doesn't evaluate academic records from my school, that if credentials is included it may will cause a delay in processing my evaluation report.
Does it means i cannot use WES or any other evaluating body for the evaluation

I had to create an account there.

But I'm confused.

Good evening guys.

Congratulations to all PPR clinchers.

For those of you intending to use WES and would be needing WAEC evaluation, ensure you do it between now and Easter.

Waec starts after Easter and 90% of the staffs will be going for invigilating and wont be back until May 29.

This will mean a slow down on the application processes.
Something that takes a week could turn to three weeks and beyond.

But if you are not in a hurry, then this isn't for you.

LONGEST POST ALERT...........PPR GIST PART2

Thanks my "DESTINAMBARI" for the Part1 of our story. Am glad i finally convinced you to come out of that shell.
Boss Ifeoma, if you looking for your number one fan, it's xplorezee i tell youuuuuu!

Ok my people, this is the REMIX..........

Decision to travel has been since after my OND days. Actually delayed HND for few years as man had to hustle. This was born out of the advise from one of my lecturers back in 2005 at MAPOLY, that as a prospective Engineer, it's really important one go in search of core practical experience. And today, i thank God i followed the beautiful and life saving advise. More so, I have always learnt from my DAD that a man needs to be self sufficient.The support of the wifey should only be an added point .
This two reasons really made me work hard to gain experience and at the same time gather some funds.
Fast forward to 2009 while i was contemplating on going for my HND, i actually calculated how much i have been able to save and decided to give YANKEE a try. I contacted some folks i believed could help but they all turned me down one by one.
Without wasting much time, i enrolled for my HND and continued working by the side. After completion of my HND+NYSC in 2012, I decided to reawaken the Yankee dream in me once again. With more links to the Creme de la Creme people, surprisingly, they all turned me down one after another despite having my fund to finance myself o! #WinkedWorld
It was here i forgo the dream and face naija hustling reloaded. With much experience in the bags already, i was changing one job for another in the Engineering/Telecomm Sector, not even the B.sc/M.sc holders could compete with me at interviews. But sincerely, i kept on thinking and reevaluating my OBODOYIBO dream because i saw a lot in the line of duty. Toured all the states in the entire Naija since 2009 but the merciful God has really protected me from some horrible accidents. Talk of Bike, Buses, Luxirous(Ezenwata, Agborfure and co.) etc, the nature of my job is one that exposed me to all this things. Likewise, the struggle for survival never seem to END.
2014 came and this boy decided to get married to Ma'am xplorezee .
My Golden Son arrived in 2015 and from the moment I saw him at the hospital, I just knew my boy & family doesn't deserve a life in Naija. The thing wey my wife eye see for labour room na him dey go for front so .
Codedly & Calculatively, I began to restrategise again. Found out about YANKEE Visa interview and noticed that we were gonna be qualified with luck on our side. Talk of the conditions such as home ties, savings etc, I have got it all. But one thing lead to another, the urge never materialise.

Fast forward to Feb. 2018, I was strolling on my FB page when I saw the status of my Surest BOSS from my former coy i had worked in 2016. He is "ebho" here on NL with the fastest PPR record ever liveth (i believe) The Holy Ghost just shine my eyes onto his DP & I observed that his Profile Picture no be for here. I clicked on his profile and voila, it reads Winnipeg, Manitoba. I buzz him immediately and my boss that never disappoints answered sharperly. I inquire about how he take do am and it was there he told me about Canada Express Entry.
See me see as I almost hit myself say where i dey since, but don't mind me, like have said, i was busy raking in Millions for Companys with peanuts in return as salary. Na so man begin with d mysterious & adventurous journey to Canny LAND

ECA: This was already set since July 2018. We used WES and thankfully, all this WAEC brouhaha hasn't started at the time. Transcripts processing were also easy 'cos being a popular figure Faculty Treasurer(OND) and Faculty President(HND), I was still recognised and had a breeze

Oct.27th '18: Aced IELTS on the 6th attempt. Wifey too wrote 4 times. I would say two or three major factors contributed to this. One was the believe that wifey would be the suitable Pry. Applicant due to her B.sc, hence my refusal to properly read, we were also looking at the PNP route at the time. So, I was just doing it for fun. ECA outcome came in after our 4th attempts and our eyes opened when we saw that with my WES conversion as 2 or more certs, CRS would be dancing between 441-450 with me as the P.A depending on IELTS. Na so i tell Madam say it's time to rest while i take charge. I took it the 5th time after thorough preparation but my overconfidence in "READING(my favourite)" earned me 6.5. I actually finished in 45mins but was just thinking about WRITING instead of make good use of the 15minutes left to go through my answers.
I immediately Reload and Refire in the next test of Oct.27th & had LRSW 8.5,7,7,7. CRS come siddon jejely for 444 .

MEDICALS: This was done UPFRONT in Nov.2018 at Q-Life. It was quite smooth as we got to V.I around 5:30am. Fnished well on time around 10:30am and had our PCC on same day with Inspector Moshood.

POF: Was also a breeze, as IELTS between myself & wifey don cost me about 1M+ coupled with some other unprofitable business i had dabbled into; I reached out to my Uncle in the U.S and he gracefully sent me some solid funds with gift deed. Another jolly childhood friend of mine also supported with some substantial amount.

REFERENCE LETTER: Was from my Supervisor on a plain paper, not notarized while i only attached his ID card. 6months payslips and printed Statement of Account. My Employment and Promotion letters were also inclusive while i had 2 NOCs.
COPR passports was at the famous Studio24.

ITA: Dived into the pool with a CRS of 444 in Nov 2018. Na here another hypertension start. Draws that were dancing btw 440 & 442 before we entered pool o, na so CRS shoot to 449 & 445 in two consecutive draws. Omo! See fear!
ITA finally landed gidigba on Dec.19th with CRS cut off 439 for the day. I carry many lucky people for back on this day .

AOR: Packaged all IRCC requirements and send am back to them on Dec.27th and got AOR. RPRF was also paid. No dulling at all as all documents don even ready since JUNE(lol).

MEP/BIL: Came in on Feb.7th 2019 and was done on the same day at VFS Lekki. After this, we were becoming restless awaiting PPR.

On Feb26th: My wife has been saying all day that "PPR must show today after another boss of mine in my current company got his PPR days earlier. At around 11:30pm while still busy with my second family(IELTS CLASS), na so the IRCC mail dropped o! Na him I said, "darling it's like he don show o".
We logged into our account with SPEED and unfortunately, it was an ADR(lol). The request was for why there was a difference in my name on my Boys birth certs and that of my Credentials. My people, this ADR na because of WASIU(present in all my official docs.)and ABDUL WASIU(on my Sons birth certificate o). So please, let's be careful.
Na so my wifey sprang the surprise by bringing out our Wedding Invitation of five(5) yrs ago. My God! I fear women that day 'cos i never believed she kept that single copy all along.
Low & behold! My name was written Abdul Wasiu on it and na so we scanned and write fews words join. We made it "back to sender" that same night .
Adebee dear, i thank you once again for your assistance on this night too. We began to wait again, especially as people were saying don't worry, your PPR will land in three days once they have verified the ADR response. Sleepless nights come start. Will finish with my IELTS people around 11pm and still wake up like 3x in between till day break to check for the Golden Mail. No be small thing at all.

March.29th: After vivi844's comment here on NL on d 28th, wifey decided to call IRCC on d 29th and we received yet another shocking news. The lady that answered said our PPR mail has been sent since March7th and we should have received it since then. We told her we received no such mail at all. Me that i have been checking my mail in & out(Spam o, Important o, Thrash o and even inside my phone jacket to see if he dey hide for there) every blessed day since the day we submitted their ADR. She assured us that she will contact the office in charge to issue us another one.
My people, na this particular waiting period come worse pass. In fact he for better if the lady hadn't told us anything like that. I begin to make a list of the people i have told about this to reason if any Village Pelson dey among them . Wifey was restless, Me the hubby was sleepless. Na so so checking of Inbox every hour for our Miracle Mail. At some point, i be dey think say whether na my IELTS Students take juju hold the thing say if wasseynewest don get PPR, it's bye-bye to tutorials .
We sent IRCC mail, Ralph goodale no carry last and also raised CSE. Two days after, CSE replied and add salt to our injury. Their mail reads we should wait till April 28th and contact them again if we no see anything. Chai! Which kin tin be this Fada Lord!
At this stage, wifey and i have zeroed our mind to the 28th and we were really getting over it.

On April9th: It was around 4:15am when i go "weewee", na him i just said make i check if my phone dey charge as the charger too don contact the IRCC virus and do misbehave at times. I looked at it, saw it's charging and was about to drop it na him i see the google mail alert. Honestly, I wasn't thinking about PPR cos i do wake up to like 5 mails daily. Na so the Holy Spirit told me to check and see the Joy that await my FAMILY. I opened true true only to see the IRCC mail. At that moment, my breath seized for a second for fear of another ADR. Again, the PPR mail wasn't on my mind at all. I summoned the courage and opened the mail. Wawuuuuuu!!! Finally, the Eagle has landed for my domot. I couldn't scream, I was speechless, I just smiled and whispered to the heaven & said "ALHAMDULILAH, God, you finally did this". Went straight up to Madam for room and said, "No shout o. It's like the Mail has entered. She replied asking me to "Say Walahi". I showed the mail to her and the feeling was like that of the very first time i met her at IKOTUN Bus Stop. She smiled at me like it was the very first day she said "Yes" to my toasting........

With Passports already at the VFS office, we have started packing to land "VERY HARD" in CANADA already.

In the end, ONLY GOD MADE IT POSSIBLE.

majamisile:
We recently got a report of someone whose ECA was done by WES but had his completed ECA show that indeed his school is not recognized even though they collected the fee o. So I guess it will be best to try evaluating with some other body like ICES to avoid stories that touch. You can send ICES an email before you start the evaluation. It has also been confirmed here that getting your school to send your transcript to them via the school's official email kind of makes the evaluation a bit faster. @topsmamen na your input remain now o. All the best.

samsonedos:
Hello everyone,
My university verified my transcript to Wes via email last Friday. I contacted Wes about it on Wednesday to know why it was taking so long for them to acknowledge receipt of the email. I was told they don't have any information about the said email.

I Contacted my university to resend the email again yesterday and they did.
Please, what do I do? ECA is the only barrier I have before entering the pool.

Topsmamen:
Actually, WES is not the only accredited body that does credential assessment. I suggest you reach out to ICES/IQAS by sending emails to them and confirm that they can verify your educational credentials from your school before you proceed to send them your documents for evaluation.

Ifeoma77:
There is only one pool. Nothing like federal pool.
And you can't have two profiles as the PA.
The best you can do to have two profiles is if you're the PA in one and your husband is the PA in the other. But to do that, he would have to evaluate his degree and write IELTS...so it's better you get him on board

Good afternoon guys,(silent reader)

Congrats to all the PPR clinchers and thanks to everyone here for information sharing.
Please i have a question:
AOR was January 10th 2019, as at then i had 11 months validity on my International passport.
Based on my cic profile supposed completion date is July 10th but my passport validity will be 5 months by then.
So, since i am not sure when i'll get PPR, i was thinking of renewing my passport and raising cse to inform them to be on the safe side.
But i was told by an immigration officer that i wont be able to renew my passport if it has over 6 months validity.
That means i'l have to wait and hope PPR comes after 15 June, because it looks like i cant start the renewal process until then since the passport is to expire on Dec 15th.
i would really appreciate any ideas on best approach in this case?

Thank you

VERY VERY LONG POST ALERT



I had been feeling down for a week and actually decided to type this on Monday as a therapy and put my PPR date as 10/04/2019 but hey what is one day?
I was jejely taking lunch this afternoon and my second son was fighting me for it, then i got an email alert, saw it was a "do not reply mail", omo, i no know when i drop the food o.
All in all, i am very grateful to God. 9months 18day wait was no joke but hey, the joy of PPR has overriden that. For everyone still expectant, may your joy be full and your expectation will not be cut off.

"For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry".

Pepperb:
Hi all, i evaluated my bsc with iqas but i am thinking of writing CIMA certificate level to claim 2 or more degrees. As we all know, its only WES that evaluates certificate, would i be able to combine both iqas n wes for he claim?

kingspaco:
You could still make use of your current passport if renewal is going to give you unnecessary stress.

Someone on the sister thread said she was able to land in Canada with a week to passport expiry date.
You still have a choice to make though but that's my opinion.

joo2018:
Don't worry about probabilities.

You can get PPR by next week or way after July.

At six months validity, go and renew your passport.

Worst case, you get PPR and submit passport. If you get another passport, you can land in Canada as long as you submit both passports to the immigration officer at the POE.

dexla:
Please who has successfully sent Unilag transcript through NIPOST? How long does it take to get to WES?
I for just use private courier. Now I can't track and the wait feels like forever

Mariesio:
Since when have you sent it

Peece:
Whao!!thanks a whole lot for more clarity.
That means getting a new passport after the former has been stamped doesn’t automatically cancel the former passport?
All I need to do is show both to the immigration officers at POE as adviced.

Newmum0615:
@joo2018 how far? E don show?I came to check up and say congratulations to you. If you want, I can help you storm IRCC office and show them small craze. What are they holding your PPR for?
