Congratulations but what do u mean by less points?

I am a lawyer too are you saying if I use WES my points will reduce.Please clarify so that I can know the best step to take bearing in mind that I also have masters.

Thank you

adeji2001:

I've been following this thread since 2016. IELTS has showed me pepper i have written and lost count my writing was always coming back with 6.5, But i could not retreat with all the testimonies here and there. I also contacted @Johnnybravo when he dropped a line to encourage someone that was down with the writing syndrome he said and i quote "BY THE TIME AM THROUGH WITH YOU IN YOUR WRITING YOU WILL NEVER BE THE SAME". Mehn this guy is a Guru immediately after my 1st session with him, he was able to identify my issue in writing.
Lo and Behold i scaled IELTS this time
L - 8.5
R - 8.5
W - 7.5
S - 7.0
CRS now stands at 463. Thanks to all those testimonies that kept me going and not to retreat.
@johnnybr.avo@vc.ole@ifeoma,@joo,@Topsm.amen,@wasseyne.west...+ silent readers wishing us well...THANK YOU,THANK YOU, THANK YOU....May we never stop rejoicing.

Today is the happiest day of my life. After 6 attempts of not being able to go through ielts, I got my result today.

L 9
R 8.5
W 7
S 7.5

Recall, I complained here of not being able to pass
listening, some months ago. God has done it. Though crs is 447.

No one is permitted to give up. It's very possible.

Dedicated to all those who encouraged me. God bless you all.

firpemi:

For ADR payslips/bank statement - I printed 6 months each even tho I have over 10years work experience,didn't see d need to overburden the VO with proof,I also had loans showing on my payslips.

GCMS notes showed my pension wasn't considered maybe cos it was just a buffer to d POF.

INITIAL POF - used Tbills certificate and an Investment in Leadway. Added about 3 expired Tbills certificate which I was rolling over during my 6 months wait for ITA to the LOE session.

PASSPORT PHOTOS : Scanned the photos i carry around in my wallet and uploaded for eApr

PCC : My PCC was 4 months old at eApr,i decided ro follow what was written on CiC site as per 6 months validity

AlhamduliLlah its PPR����������.
It was in Oct 2017 that i seemed to have had an epiphany;this country wasnt getting easier to live and relocation came to mind. I had a friend that was having a hard time in naija whom i always encouraged to try Canada,she chatted me one day to say she had landed in NS Dec 2016. I also remember another friend using my card to make WES payment early 2016,so i called her up to send me d Nairaland link to the Canadian thread cos i was sure it would exist! She did and also sent me the A-Z of express entry..i went through it and i couldnt believe how easy it seemed..so i had been sitting on a long thing i thought,when i could be in Canada in a year.
I immediately went to Unilag to start transcript processing and collect my certificate that had been laying there for donkey years,they said i needed my undergrad cert,i proceeded to Lasu to process this,this took me another 2 weeks to get out,upon my return to Unilag,story started,they couldnt find my results,they advised i go to PG school from Records office,Pg school said Department didnt send mastersheet,i should go to them,however my name was on d graduating list o,see village people,thats how they were tossing me up and down till they went on that long strike. Mogbe�� one day during d strike,i decided to call the hanty in records office,thats how she told me they were outside the building under the sun trying to go in but the union guys wouldnt let them..i said heya sorry o,send me your account no lemme send u money for pure water. 2 days later i get a call from Hanty that 'is my name so so so' i said yes,she said she just found my results and was already preparing my transcript i shouted wonderful,this same result we searched and searched for in the cabinets in records office and we didnt see..pure water has brought it out. I thanked her and sent money for Fanta to encourage her to send my transcript to ICES asap,they did this in february and ICES acknowledged receipt 2 days after..Woohoo. I changed my mailing address from naija to a Canny address as my body was hotting for ITA. ,i got a cheque for a refund for $46 courier fee,cheque is still cooling in Canny till now.

I had written.my first ielts in Dec 2017 and 7.5 in listening made me retake the test immediately in Jan,this one came out alright. LRSW 8.5,9,7.5,7. My ECA was ready in March and i dived into the pool with a CRS of 440,i thought i was going to be swimming out almost immediately either by direct ITA or nomination from ontario but i got another think coming! CRS kept roving around 441,442,443. It went on like this till sept when i was about to lose points due to birthday. Somewhere along the line,in june precisely,hubby who said he wasnt interested in being a PR but would rather procure TRV for visiting,started feeling for me and asked how he could help. That's when it occurred to me to evaluate his masters. and if he also did Ielts or TEF, CRS would jump to 446. So i swung into action to evaluate his Msc,this didnt turn out well because cos even though it was a foreign school and WES would evaluate it very fast,the school said they couldnt send transcripts to a third party,that he should come to campus to pick up and send to whomever he wants. Shuo�apparently people in France dont go studying abroad so frequently hence they were not used to such requests,as i could not speak french na, i had to be on hubby to follow up with them and that itself was an herculean task cos oga dey too busy .a lot of time passed and the back and forth continued,i gave up on them,by this time i has also persuaded him to write ielts,cos the next test dates for TEF was 3 months away,He had the ielts in PH,after I toasted him that PH MOD was a VIP centre. (He is crowd ~camera~ shy)luckily they were just about 15 at the test centre ;Dso my lie went undetected We got 18/20 from his ielts However this wasnt going to be of any use without his ECA. One day,i decided to check our WES profile and i saw a completion date...Hurrayyy,then i looked closely and realised it was 2 days after by birthday,i would have lost 6 marks(yes at a certain age,u lose 6 marks,not 5 and d CRS calculator doesnt reflect this) Anyhoo hubby encouraged me to change back to unaccompanying and CRS cut off finally dropped to 440 on sept 5 and iTA landed. There's a myth that if uve had so much hurdles pre ITA either ielts or ECA wahala,ur app processing will be fast..i wish! Submitted in October,heaved a sigh of relief and went about my life,got request for rprf in Nov and thought my application was gonna be fast. first week in January,i decided to raise CSE to request for vO and i got the dreaded answer: ACCRA. I couldnt laugh or cry,i had been planning an april landing,i immediately readjusted my plans and mind to 2020 and went about life,i also sought and found d AVO group and joined early January,they confirmed my fears,they had not seen up to 3 PPRs from accra in 6 months. Everyone was very accomodating and were always rooting for each other,no regrets joining the group at all.I requested GCMS in March and received it early April saw RR for stat questions,Age drop btwn ITA and AOR...but i wasnt bothered about this at all.

Thereafter,AVO started raining ADRs for famous 5 in march i got my share on the 9th,submitted 12th.Another month of waiting,then the ghost update came and still nothing happened unril 10 days after.

In all I wrote Accra to find out whats up twice,the first time,i got an ADR later that day while the second time was yesterday,they never reply my mails but i usually see action thereafter,so u guys can give that a shot. One more thing,i start my letters with 'Dear Visa Officers,thank You for all the work you do' lol,i dunno if that helped.

I cannot conclude this write up without giving a big shout out to both @newmum0615 and stonecoldcafe. Both sisters heard 'wen' in my hands,i will call or write them just to rant,from waiting for ITA for 6 months,to my hubby school issues to finding out file was in Accra,i cant thank you both enough.

Before i forget,my special appreciation to the AVO group,from the admins that have to keep adding people daily,to the friends i made there @cutieplum, Obi1conte and a host of others

Utonne:
Guys, Please I need your help. Med expires mid Aug. Passport expires December 30. Do I need to travel before the validity of my passport is less than 6 months i.e June 30th or I can wait all the way out to mid Aug when meds is expiring. I'm vaguely aware of some airlines with the policy of 6 minimum validity travel. Please help...
@Topsma.men @Stepha.nie09 @Yout.ook @ifeo.ma77 @ra.phrulz @ladyma.rshall, Anyone? Thanks

GozyNA:

Thanks £-sis for the words of encouragement.
Congratulations to Oga o.

Now you've been reading testimonies of how God showed up for people as regards POF right? My prayer for you is that he'll show up strong for you too. Don't lose your sleep over money (paper) sis, trust God, do what you have to do and take it one step at a time. I await your testimony when it all ends

electroTech:

Congrats bro!
You registered with IDP or BC?
Also, I never knew it is possible to move exam date. Please tell me how you did it.

ENGRAGHA2:
@johnnybravo@ifeoma,@joo,@Topsmamen,@wasseynewest... I need your advice. I just checked my IELTS results. Firstly, I thank God for success.
The thing is with my score of L9, R8, W7, S7 my CRS is 441 based on age. but i believe my writing was good enough for a 7.5. Should I remark? if it goes to 7.5 CRS BECOMES 449.
How long does it take IDP EOR?

Thanks
