Hello everyone. Please does anyone have the contact information (phone number/email) for the admissions office in Babcock University to process transcripts pls?

Also, I have a few certifications in Logistics & Supply Chain Management and also in Economics, do they count as additional certificates to be evaluated at WES?

Anticipating a reply. Thanks guys

@Flgd and @DonFreshmoney congrats on your ielts results. What great testimonies!!!

Debsify:
With less than 40000 invited so far, it looks short of the over 330,800 people they said they'll invite this year

naaa doesn't work that way. have you forgotten refugees, international student,those on work permit visa, spousal sponsorship, entrepreneur program? e.t.c they all would amount to that said figure.

Halleluyah!!! Congratulations. I am so happy for you. All the best in the rest of the process

captainhoo:

You need to read page 1 under The Basic Process. It qualifies as two or more certificates

Fantastic Story! "Coke-astic" PPR gist.

MY STORY
The journey ALMOST started in 2016, I was duped by an agent who told me he will get me a job offer, and after I had coughed

I will like to appreciate those that have walked this journey with me, For my Nov AOR people I apologize for the abrupt manner I left the group, I was just too heartbroken to stay. @Ramj told me one day, once a Nov AOR member always a Nov AOR member. Chai, It touched me eh!!!

Then for my Jan AOR people, hmmmmm I should reserve a FULL page for you guys. You are just something else. Characters Eh, wonderful people, so warm, funny and giving. I have already met great people in that group and I just know we will be lifelong friends. Thank you for all the encouragements, the journey is not over yet, but with you guys by my side I’m not afraid. For those still waiting on PPR it will surely come just ready your shoulder pads…

Thank you my Nlanders, This forum gave me a wealth of information that made this journey successful, all the prominent contributors that keep this thread alive thank you for all the good that you do….

Help please o

PreciousRuby:
Hello house,

I have a Masters degree and I have requested for my transcript.

Please do I need to also send my BSc transcript or just the certificate as my account is showing that the transcript is being expected. Kindly assist so I can attend to this asap.

Secondly, I urgently need a contact in Unilag to assist with my transcript processing. Thank you ahead.

Hello, what’s your AOR, as Accra seems to be my AVO too

Scbhoviv:
Hi, people so I received a mail from AVO this morning saying that my application is in queue for review. Abeg people this review does it take long. ?

Thanks my lady. What’s your AOR?

ladymarshall:
I just added @bolded to my wise sayings diary

Thank you for this encouragement. Even for me during this wait, my brain plays unrealistic mind games and mythical permutations on why I might not get it, but I slap myself back to positivity, knowing others have gotten and mine won't be different.

Thank you. No I didn’t attend classes. I used Jay‘s videos , tips from this thread, reminders to practice and preparation materials from my friend. I shared the tips here

https://www.nairaland.com/5031893/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled/32#75990922

I focused more efforts on listening and writing due to the high failure rate. While you practice, if you like, you can send me your writing drafts of task 2 together with screenshot of this post as proof of my commitment so I can remember, I can help you edit them.

All the best as you practice. It will end in praise.

abulude:
Wow! Your IELTS results is so good. How did you prepared for the exams? Did you attend any IELTS tutorial class?

Congratulations WhizzyG.

Journey started August last year, my ex and I broke up 2 months before and I remember seeing one Canadian agent’s cArd in his wallet. I sha snapped it and never bothered about it. He wanted to go to Estonia as he was into IT and hoped to get shengien visa. I did my research on Nairaland too and sent him the link, we both read. My dumb ass really wanted to go with him as per the “LOML” when I knew fully well Estonia was never in my bucket list � after the breakup I realized I wanted Canada or Australia instead of the Estonia I was researching on. I carried myself to Nairaland and read the express entry thread for both countries and concluded Canada was easier and left Australia. I called the agency guys and went to their office, I paid 10k and captioned it “Mumu Money” they asked why I did that I said I’m scared if it would worth it. Long and short, all what they told me was what I already knew with the exception of the fact that if I had National Diploma it would earn me extra points (I didn’t know this before that day). I figured it wasn’t a waste afterall as I had gained some confidence in what I already knew And Nairaland wasn’t selling crap to me.

My cousin in the US suggest I come to there as that’s where the money is and leave Canada. I was stucked in a limbo as to whether to chose US and go on a student visa or go for Canada as PR. Canada far outweighed US as this Trump ish was becoming a pain in the ass.

Sometimes in September 2018 or there about another bobo waka come that wan said it was Australia he was going to that he preferred it cos of distance and he won’t have to look back to naija again. Omo na so I borrow myself brain sharp sharp I told him I’m not doing oh before another boy comman ruin my career for me �

WES account created on 27 July 2018, paid August 1 and this was before the WAEC saga but somehow they managed to drag me back to be among those that must verify WAEC. ECA was the longest wait time! Took over 5 months to get it all sorted. My friend in ilorin helping me had exams to write so he couldn’t give it his 100% time, I can’t blame him. asked him to tip the guys in school. Total cost for ECA was N140,285 started 1 August 2018 ready 14 January 2019. I used nipost to send my certificate and AAT Transcript(sent separately it was 4k, the lady use scope to corner my change), my Bsc was delivered but my AAT wasn’t I found out after 2 months wait and sent again with UPS, paid N14,500. Waec cost 10k and paid 9k for courier through UPS. I got the UPS woman’s number begged her to let me include my ATS transcript(which was ready in less than 3 days) alongside my WAEC transcript. She no gree, I tipped her 2k and she was extra nice. I had two or more certificates (BSC and AAT)

IELTS
So I wrote twice both were MOD
First one was for AUG 18 LRWS - 8, 8, 7.5, 6.5 �
Second was Oct 27 LRWS - 8, 8, 7.5, 7 �
My first IELTS experience, I prepared for a month and used mostly Jay’s video from E2 language , I didn’t like Liz then Cos I thought she smiled too much � and I couldn’t concentrate but laugh at her smiling face �

After them nack my 6.5 I paid 46k for remark but “Result remained unchanged” ewww my chest ahh. I wanted to register for another one in that same September but it was too short and I didn’t want to take chances. I registered for October 27 immediately before I left their office. My lazy a$$ didn’t read until 20th of October, reality hit me that I can’t fail this time o. I was to resume a new job, I begged for a month grace and my one month was spent enjoying life and restructuring my new house. I started reading and I visited the ielts thread and saw most people recommended Liz paid video! I mentioned codedplace taya to send me link he say send mail. That was how I left him and resulted to LIZ videos on YouTube, I subscribed for IELTS advantage by Chris Pell. It’s a 5 days course but I took it in 2 days as my exam was already in 3 days time. I went back to the ielts thread the night before my exam and check codedplace profile, his old posts found out he had previously dropped the link. Naso I open am, saw 3 videos of 1 hr plus each. Grim!! My goodness! It’s past 10pm already and I need to sleep. I downloaded the 3 videos and turned off my internet to avoid visiting WhatsApp and Twitter every minute. I was stucked with Liz smiling face for another 3 hours , Took my earpiece and watched the videos till 1am and I slept. I must say, those videos really helped me. I took less water as I went into the exam hall for my paper. The fact that I had to pee in my first attempt and spent 15 minutes been restless before I was allowed to go out was part of what accounted for my poor performance the first time, so I didn’t let it happen again.(lesson, reduce water intake before going to the hall) Result turned out as expected. Glory be to God.

PCC inspector moshood was 4k. I think this was the easiest of all.

Medicals was IOM on 30th January paid 41,400. I had earlier called Qlife to book appointment but they told me the earliest available period was April kilode! Na medicals I wan do, I no kill person. I used google and landed on IOM website. I called to book an appointment then I was asked to send my email. I was booked for the following Wednesday (30th Jan)

POF I uploaded 6 months statement of account with savings.

Work experience
Letter in CIC format, 3 months pay slip and 4 months account statement. I didn’t highlight my salary. I had no idea that was a thing as at then.

Called twice to enquire about VO and if eligibility has started. The last call was 9th of May and was told Eligibility has not been completed. I asked if it was started she responded again “Eligibility has not been completed” if it’s me that don’t understand English or it’s she, I ended the call and swore not to call back till 6 months is passed.

ADR May 11th was for copy of Education degrees. This is when I would say God stood for me. When. I got request letter I jumped out of joy that PPR was here alas it was ADR goosh! I wan slap person. I just said to myself seems this CIC people just want to see my finesse certificates again but unknown to me the fault was from me. I uploaded my passport and captioned it EDUCATION + ECA when I submitted my application. This I only found out when I was to upload the new one, I opened the old one with the intention of seeing what I did wrong to correct it this second grace period. Lo and behold I found my passport all pages inside!!! I uploaded Degrees, IELTS And use Ilovepdf to join my ECA with it. (Lesson here, always double check before uploading)

May 17 about 3am, I found myself awake. I said to myself lemme pray. I checked my work mail like 5 times already and didn’t check my personal mail. I went to IG and spent almost an hr. I wanted to sleep back, and I was feeling guilty that I didn’t even pray, I hope Social media would not be the end of me. I hoped to check my mail before saying a 2 minutes prayer and closing my eyes. ...It was there, the long awaited email has been waiting for me since 11.35pm on 16th May.

Right now I don’t have a passport Cos my dog ate it, and no! I wasn’t careless. The dog picked it from my opened bag on the floor in my room. (lesson here, be extra careful with your documents) and the new one isn’t ready yet but it should be out before 15 days I have to submit my passport for VISA.

On first of May, I made a declaration that my good news was coming this month. It finally came. It has ended in praise! Glory be to God! Thank you Jesus! Alhamdullah for everything!!!


PS I’ve been a very active nairaland user since 2011 but I had to create this dummy profile so that my village people will not trace me on my main account. God bless you all, God bless Seun Osewa for this wonderful platform. God bless God for been God.

Philips49:

Your sense of humour is goals

Ifeoma77:

To consult the ancestors, you need to provide;
1. a black hen with exactly 3.5 spikes in her comb.
2. The liver of an alcoholic mosquito
3. One fang from a 7 years old cobra and
4. Schnapps brewed in the year of your grandpa's birth
The ancestors await your sacrifice

Sure, send as many dms as you want

TemiGee:
Congratulations @demshy...

I don't think there is usually an ITA whatsapp group, I think it is AOR that has a group. I am not 100% sure anyways.

Please O, elders, ancestors, guru's, Mi Lord's and Mi Lady's, If I DM you for guidance on this ITA matter, kindly respond ooo, unless... I will come to your house. please help a Family. Lol

@Ifeoma77, @topsmamen @ladymarshall @joo2018 @iaatmguy @etrange @Adunee @ GozyNA @ DonTee07... Etc

Good day everyone,

I have a question and I will appreciate your response.

I got a reference letter from my old place of work, and although the letter head paper has the phone number and the PMB of the company, the person that signed did not include his contact details.

My question is if this matters.

TIA.

Thanks a lot

teemaralli:
No, you wont have more points. its either 2 or more certs or masters/ professional degree

If the reference letter will be written on a letterhead, it is best to get the approval of HR to avoid misrepresentation.

Scandinavian02:


IRCC never mentioned HR but your immediate supervisor.

Guys, please need some advise on behalf of my brother. His application was previously approved and then cancelled so he could include his spouse.

On may 27th, He submitted forms required for adding spouse and paid all fees stated including biometrics as his wife is accompanying him, his wife's UCI was updated in his profile after a week. He sent an email after another week that he is still waiting for BIL for his wife. They replied that application is in process and VO will send request for any documents required. Last week, he got a request letter for PPR in his cic account that visa is ready to be issued for them.(this is good news in a way cos of the speed but what about biometrics fee they have paid for)

He has not received BIL up till now, they have until next week to submit these passports. He emailed again last week asking for BIL, no response.

Is there a direct contact for accra office or a more direct way to get their attention? he is trying to avoid any future issues here. . Its frustrating cos these people do not seem to respond to specific questions, just generic emails.
If they do not want her to do it, they should let them know and I guess the $85 will be refunded?

iaatmguy:
naaa doesn't work that way. have you forgotten refugees, international student,those on work permit visa, spousal sponsorship, entrepreneur program? e.t.c they all would amount to that said figure.

Yeah figured

Congrats @Melochic on your PPR, it has ended in praise! All the best in Canada

Congrats in arrears to all ITA clinchers Temigee , Demishy, tolfa, Dontee07, Ednut1, godG, speedy processing to you all.

I and hubby did our NECO PROCESSING yesterday and below is the details

NECO PROCESSING DETAILS:

1) Go to www.remita.net generate a remita code using your exact name on your NECO certificate. NOTE: when you click on the remita link you would see a search button type in NATIONAL EXAMINATION COUNCIL it will take you the next page where you will be asked for

Thank you

Congratulations on your Ielts. You did well.

While we wait for those who have encountered the same issue as this to respond, perhaps you can send ICES an email icesinfo@bcit.ca letting them know you want to add the courier option, ensure the email contains your application number and other personal details so they can check your file.
