Hello house, I am a little bit confused on how to handle my POF.

I intend to use the estate account of my late dad as the money is domiciled there. The name of the estate account goes thus, THE ESTATE OF ADETOKUNBO,....... and I am a signatory to the account.

1. Should I use the Estate account for my POF? If yes, would I need to back it up with a LOE?
2. Should I transfer the funds to my own personal account?
3. If I transfer the fund to my own personal account, do I need to write a LOE?

Pls pardon my ignorance.

start the process and get ITA first before worrying about all this. Its your daddies money not borrowed fund. This is not an issue to be worried about

Whats the best noc code for someone with BSC in pure and applied physics, BCS certificate.

Good morning fellow Canadians. For those of us that haven't started the process of getting university degrees/transcripts to Wes and other Evaluation bodies please start now because SSANU/NASU are threatening to embark on an indefinite strike nationwide.
I pray government meet their demands in time so as not to disrupt our Canada dreams.

happened to me in 2018. 4 months NASU strike. Nothing man fit do than wait till they call it off.

Your NOC depends on your work experience, not what you studied.

Hello house,
Pls I am new here, I have my ECA report for M.sc ready, I am preparing for IELTS( Aug). I want to ask if evaluating my B.sc too will increase scores eventually or just the highest degree (M.sc). Thanks

TemiGee:
I used CES and I didn't send any student copy of transcript. Unless things have changed recently, I believe the only transcript required is official transcript and it should be sent directly from your school to CES via courier.

Good morning ma'am, does CES accept statement of result/provisional certificate because my MSc certificate is not ready!

Please help!

Good day

I made a promise that if I passed my ielts the first time I would reach out to a maximum of 10 persons struggling with ielts writing. My Overall score was 8.0. Writing 7.5. So if you know you want brutal honesty as regards your ielts writing.

Ps: it is totally free.

Hello all, you guys are doing a great job here I must confess.
I have some concerns and I will be extremely glad if anyone can help put me through.

1 I want to apply as the PA for my family, I already have an Msc while my partner has a Bsc. We both agreed to take the IELTS exams. My worries is the BCS exam, we would love to take it to boost our scores as age is not on our side. The dilenma is we are unsure of who is the best person to take it. Will it add signify points to my Msc or its best for my partner to take it to add to his Bsc. Is it possible to evaluate both my msc and bcs?

2 I'd also like mor info on the bcs exam, If theres any whatsapp group, I will be glad to join

3 Does anyone have a link in the university of Ibadan, i dont know how to go about the Wes thing?

4 Is anyone gracious enough to put me through step by step procedure on how to go about evaluating my WES as I intend to start this week. I know some persons have talked about using Fax but I dont know how it works

Thanks guys

Good morning ma'am, does CES accept statement of result/provisional certificate because my MSc certificate is not ready!
Please which one is CES?

Hey Fam,

Since I am still basking in the euphoria of my PPR, let me shed more light on how it came through.

Decision to Migrate: I have always been a huge fan of the Nigerian dream (If there is any) so I never really considered trying to relocate to the aborad. In view of this, when I finished from the prestigious department of Economics, Obafemi Awolowo University Ile-Ife in January 2013, my desire was to build a successful career in Nigeria and contribute to Nation Building. Lol.

However, I was privy of this Canada Express Entry stuff in 2016 when I was running my Masters of Science Degree in Industrial Relations and Personnel Management in University of Lagos (Maulag) when a friend of mine hinted me about the process. I wasn’t really interested then so I didn’t move an inch about it. I was hell bent on finishing my program and so that I can start a 9 to 5 job in Nigeria but I got to know about Fiverr on nairaland (Dec 2016) so I started freelancing which gave me the opportunity to work from home and earn some dollars.

In March 2018, I started nursing the ambition of leaving Nigeria after seeing that majority of the haves (awon scammer)in Nigeria have either a second passport from theirselves and their children. I took my destiny into my own hands and joined a GRE group of students planning to study in the United States. After much deliberation, I registered for the exam with BY Mafit(#45,000) and took a 6 weeks tutorial. Truth be told, the quantitative and verbal aspect of the exam looked like arabic to me (lol) so I started to wonder what prompted me to register for the exam (who send me).

On April 14, 2018 I ran into a childhood friend of mine at a family friend’s wedding. His mom left for the UK about 10 years ago so he followed suit few years later. He told me that I should give immigration a shot and that he would recommend Canada because of the seamless immigration process. He took me to his sister who asked about my work experience, age and academic qualification. I obliged by giving her a low down of my profile and she encouraged me to try this Canny package.

On hearing about the perks of moving to Canada, I quickly jettisoned the United States plan (the fear of Trump). Moreso, with the way the Visa shit be these days, e no go make sense to focus solely on God’s own country(lol.) Also, I will have to take a student loan to go to the US, hustle for H1B Visa, and start the laborious task of getting a green card( E de take over 10 years). E no just make sense to me. I just dashed the institute the 45,000 jare. Till today I never write the exam.(lazy boy). All was set for the tupsy-turvy Canada journey.

IELTS - Hehe. First test of my resilience. In May 2018, I started following this Canny thread with consistent regularity. I quickly registered for the June 30, 2018 BC exam with the believe that I will ace it once. The crowd I saw in the 2 halls on that day blew me away. People wan japa oo. When the result was released, I thought I had passed because of the general idea that a M.SC will increase your points. Naxo, I relax begin de chill oo. Mehn, when I spoke with the elders on here, they calculated my points and told me that I will need to rewrite the exam. I came short again in the second BC IELTS exam (August 18, 2018). I thought I should have passed this exam. Furthermore, I quickly followed the school of thought that it is good write the exam almost immediately. Naxo, I gebe my body go do Sep 8, MOD exam ooo. My performance dropped.

First IELTS BC June 30, 2018 – LRSW (6.5,6.5,7,6)
Second IELTS BC August 18, 2018 – LRSW (8,6.5,7,6.5)
Third IELTS MOD September 8, 2018 – LRSW (7.5,6.5,8,6.5)

After my consistent struggles, I started to think that maybe this Canny dream won’t come to fruition but when I see the shambles going on in this clime I gave myself sense that it is too early to give up. If this is what I can do for my future generation, so be it. I did a self-assessment to identify my weaknesses. For listening, I struggle with map, the last passage in reading (28-40) wears me out easily. Once I hear 5 or 10 minutes to go, I lose concentration. Fam, naxo I take 3 months break ooo. I can’t dash these people my hard earned money again. I practiced everyday till Novemeber before I registered for the Decemebr 1, 2018 MOD exam. Ladies and gentlemen, inside the exam hall, I had the feeling that one of my legs was already in Canada. It looked like it was over. When the results was released, it was as if I won a jackpot.

Fourth IELTS MOD December 1, 2018 – LRSW (8.5,7,7.5,7)
CRS – 450
ITA - Jan 10, 2019

ECA – I contacted some people on here who studied at Unilag on how to go about it. They came through for me by telling me to apply online and follow up at the Senate. I paid about #22,000 to Unilag to send my transcript to WES. Also, my Dad’s friend works as a Senior Staff so he helped to fast track the process. A friend of mine used his Paypal to pay for my WES fee and I paid for his him in naira via my Union bank account. On September, 25, 2018, I received by ECA report after several back and forth from WES and Unilag.

Reference Letter – My only 9-5 experience after finishing my Mandatory Nysc was a 3-month stint as a Human Resources Assistant at a Company on the Island so I could not use it to claim points. As a fresh graduate with no huge responsibility (smh), I got tired of the environment and resigned abruptly. Fortunately, Glitteringstar was still very active on this platform then so she encouraged me to use my Nysc experience but I knew it will be difficult to get the letter considering the laid back attitude of employees of government establishments. After much pleading, I got it after a month in August 2018. I knew something was not right about the reference letter ever since then. I pleaded with them to change my Job title from Corper to the my NOC title but they forcefully refused. Many thanks to Ifeoma77 for coming through. She said I should use the Corper title and shed more light on it in my LOE.

ITA – After seeing my IELTS result on December 14, 2018, I was so confident of getting ITA that I did not create profile immediately. Also, I didn’t know where I would get the POF from so I just relaxed(I no fit try am again ooo). ITA na like diamond). Eventually, I created my profile on December 24, 2018 and I got the you are not eligible mail like so many other people on January 1, 2019. I was terribly saddened that all manner of thoughts struggled to gain the first position in my mind. I followed a compassionate person’s advise on here by increasing my POF to create a new profile. On Jan 10, 2019 (the first draw of the year, 449) I got my ITA with my 450 score.

Medical – I sent Qlife my ITA in January and I was scheduled for a Medical on February 12, 2019. I arrived early, submitted my passport and chilled before I was told to go and urinate inside a small plastic. Did my blood test, saw the Radiographer and the Doctor. Very courteous Medical practitioners work there. The Nurse just de smile.

PCC – I walked into alagbon and saw a man that took me to a woman. She wanted to charge me #8,000. Mehn, we had a heated argument about the price that it took the intervention of her boss and some of her colleagues to calm us down. I politely told her that I had #4000 on me( Omo boy don get OT for here naa). I guess she wanted to take advantage of my boyish look. I no greeeeee oooooo. Las las, na them settle am for us. I collected it, paid my #4000 and left. She said she won’t give me her card. Who card epp?

POF – I had some substantial amount of money in my account so that I won’t look like an unserious person to anyone that was willing to help(No be you wan go Canny nii). Some of the people that promised to assist later reneged on their promises (abeg no put all your eggs in one basket oo). In fact, some denied ever promising me. Naxoo, I weak ooo. I already thinking of rejecting ITA but alas my brother came through by helping me with a POF that was more than the required amount. I quickly contacted my account officers to help me use it for treasury bill (6 months), did a gift deed, notarized it and got the receipt showing the transfer from my brother’s account to my account.

N.B I only uploaded GTbank TB certificate (6 months), gift deed and transaction receipt.

AOR – I started the processing of uploading my documents on February 17, 2019. Mehn, it was not easy to answer all the questions oo. I scanned all my documents in separate folders and uploaded. I also asked some of my ogas on how to answer some complex questions. I eventually submitted after 48 hours, paid for RRPF, biometrics and other fees with the help of a kind lady on wasseynewes’s whatsapp group (God bless you sir). Sterling bank things, hehe.

Post AOR- I woke up on February 20, 2019 with the feeling that I didn’t upload all the required documents. Naxo I remember say I no upload my TB certificate oo. Can you imagine? I sharparly receive sense, raise cse ooo. I even followed up with a call to confirm if it was received. Then the long wait for MEP/BIL started. I asked my colleagues that we submitted at about the same time about theirs to determine how soon I will be contacted. Then news filtered in that some people got rejected as a result of the fact that they didn’t upload the right document in the right place. I started worrying again. Where I wan start from?

Thankfully, I got MEP/BIL on April 8, 2019. I ran to VFS, filled a form, picked a number, sat for some hours before I was attended to. I saw the email and notification in my account later in the day. Then the wait continued. I couldn’t stop worrying about my application. I started hearing people that got rejected because of wrong NOC (Nawaooo). I checked by reference letter again and I decided to contact my supervisor to help me alter the responsibilities. It just did not align with my NOC. I printed out my NOC (NOC 1254 and wrote him a passionate letter about this canny stuff). Thank God, oga change am oo after much bureaucracy. I raised cse on May 2, 2019 and it was acknowledged on May, 9, 2019.
At this point, everyone was trying to know their VO, as an oga in cse matters, I raised another one and got notified that my file is at Ottawa. Well, Ottawa peeps get PPR around the 5 to 6 months mark so no need to raise unnecessary GCMS. During this period, I tried getting a volunteer/intern role in the kind of job I intend doing in Canny but I was not successful (getting a job is a job).When people started getting ADR’s for that funny clause on their GTB TB certificate, I started getting nervous but I later relaxed jare. Las las na ADR.

On June 21, 2019, I received a cse and sent a mail to Ottawa about the latest on my application. I received a mail from CIC(June 27, 2019) and Ottawa (July 3,2019) that my application is currently in queue for review and that my status is unclear. Omo boy just go back to him lowkey state.

PPR – I woke around 2.30 on July 13, 2019 (My parents weeding anniversary and a week to my birthday). As a daily ritual, I checked my mail and I saw a mail titled CPC0-Final request (June 12, 2019 at exactly 10.02pm). At first, I thought it was an ADR as my application was not perfect. Also, many people that submitted before me are still hanging in. I checked my profile and saw nothing. I called Wasseynewest e no answer. Naxoo, I chat baba up ooo. In his usual joyful mood, baba said the golden mail has landed. Tears of joy rolled down my cheek. I notified my younger sister and parents. Immediately and tears of joy was flowing everywhere.

Things I did while waiting:
- Networked with people in the Canny work environment on linkedin.
- Checked the prices of houses and cars in Canada occasionally.
- Followed developments in the political and economic space in Canny.
- Compared the different provinces.

Abeg, who sabi where Vfs Lagos office de?

Isn’t it funny that many of the great things that have happened in my life came as a result of the wealth of information on this platform. Fiverr freelancing and now Canada. Thanks Seun Osewa. Thanks my fellow Canny people.

Conclusively, permit me to step aside by telling everyone in the race to hang in. You’re a champion. I full ground for any assistance oo. God bless us,Canada and Nigeria.

Hi.. pls I need your help with how to start this Canadian express entry process .. thanks

olutoyiin:
Hello all

Thanks guys

it will do you a lot of good I'd you take your time to read page 1. Also, type your questions on Google adding nairaland, you will be amazed at how much info you would get.
Anyways, it is better I'd your spouse does the BCS because you already have masters. Applying for transcript to WES is as simple as applying for any official transcript. Go to pg school's website (I am assuming the masters if from UI), go to transcript section and apply. You can as swell just go to pg school, the courier lady will guide you...
