Can someone who's done their medicals with IOM please give an insight on how long it takes from start to finish?

Gummygummy:
Hello house,
Please who has a valid number for reaching IOM Lagos to book an appointment. The numbers on their website is not connecting and they’ve not been replying to mails. Also any idea on the present cost would be helpful. Many thanks.

You can book the medicals here https://mymedical.iom.int/apps/omas/#_frmHome

After you complete the booking, they will send you their bank details for payment. You can send the money to them and hold the transaction receipt or pay at the premise.

Regards.

Hi All
For the proof of work experience; what if the letter just says full time without saying the number of hours worked? Is that acceptable?

not acceptable

you can calculate it yourself
For example, I work from 8am to 4pm. thats 8hours daily.
so this means i work 40hours a week.

I'm not sure I understand. Do you mean I can include this on a separate document to IRCC? Because the reference letter from the employer does not include this.

Wow, okay.

Tell the employer to.

I was suggesting you calculate it yourself and ask your referee to add it for you.
If its possible, let the person do another reference letter and include this information for you.

ladykilllar:



It all depends on the school. Etx's job majorly is to either send only (you source for the transcript in school yourself) or request and send (etx will ask the school for your transcript and send it). Now it takes a very long time for some schools to get the transcript to etx and etx only sends what they get.

So for you not to get your transcript sent maybe in year 2023 or 2024 try to get an insider in your school to help you monitor the process and makesure it gets to etx.

is it n't possible for her to get the transcript from the school and send it her self to wes?

isaacola57:
it will be merged and it will also be seen as an undergraduate certificate of one year.. that's wat my Wes report says

so you are saying your one year diploma in a course and 3 years bachelor's degree in another course even after being merged as a 4 yr course was evaluated by wes as 2 certificate?
was there a change in your crs scores because of this?
if this works, that means I won't have to do advanced diploma then.

PS. I entered through foundation to study physiotherapy but I finished with botany.

thank you

isaacola57:
yes it will.. wu said it will be merged

I was told it will be merged because botany is a 4year course and not 3 years, that's why they will merge my foundation result with my bsc to make it 4 years

Hi All

The definition of full-time already means u worked at least 30hrs/week. If IRCC is not satisfied, they can call your employers themselves.

Not every job is easy to calculate hours worked. Not every job starts n ends from 8-5. Most lecturers /professors only teach for 8 hours per week. Are we now going to say they r part time?

But if in d same letter, d lecturer said he/she runs a lab, attend conferences n write papers. The hours you can actually track is 8 hours. how then can u say such letter doesn't meet IRCC standard?

Even if the letter said the Prof worked from 8am to 4pm weekdays, that is still an inaccurate information. Some conferences happen over the weekends. If he is editing his research paper by 1am midnight or marking scripts, that is still part of work not covered in his regular working hours.

If you can get them to include d hours, please do, but if your case is different, write a letter of explanation at best.

It's wrong to just conclude that a letter will be thrown away just because it doesn't include working hours.

And yeah, I have seen two letters where they didn't include working hours (still hv d screenshot of d letters). Both of them are in Canada now.

good morning everyone,
I will like to ask if I can do an advanced diploma in business management though I have a science background. I have a bachelor's degree in botany, although I entered through foundation to study physiotherapy but I was not able to meet cut off so i was given botany..

thanks in advance

Please I have a general question. Do all the processes (BG checks, and all) happen at CIO first and then the CPC starts all over again when they get the file? seniors please help respond to this.

Influential101:
The ECA will bear a new date and her application submission date will precede the date...

but hey, she should still reevaluate regardless.

Yeah, that's where the LOE comes in.

Good morning,

Please I would like to find out if I worked in a family business in the past, do I need to submit a letter of explanation, payment receipts/payslips to support my claim. I have letter of employment and I can only find evidence of two payments in my bank statement showing my salary in my last two months at the business.

Isha113:


no, I don't think I can use my diploma because I was told my diploma statement of result will be merged with the remaining 3 years I spent at the University .
my main concern is if I can do advanced diploma in business management since I graduated with a bachelor's degree in botany.
will it be accepted for PR?

Mr. Isha, Isaacola57 has told you what to do. Please evaluate your diploma and Bsc with Wes, it will be evaluated positively as two or more certificates. Just yesterday two of my friends who has had their diploma merged with their bachelors in previous evaluation got their positive evaluation after I encouraged them to try again. Isaac also did the same thing. I don't know why you decided to be a doubting Thomas. Go and evaluate your certificate jare.

Isha113:

My cousin did a four years course including the diploma. She got two or more certificate. Stop being a Thomas.

cruzydal:
Hello pls I’m new here , will taking ACCA boost my profile ?

What's your highest educational qualification?

Easykay2020:
Hello, I have someone who has OND (3 years part time) and HND ( 2 years) certificates, are these certificates accepted and if so what will it be evaluated as? Just bsc or does it qualify for two or more

If you had read part 1, you would have gotten the answer to your question. I can't believe that we are still dealing with this question in 2020. The answer to your is YES and it qualifies for two or more certificates with Wes.

BFWestAfrican:
Thanks for your advice.
A question on WES ECA cost: After evaluating my current diplomas, when my masters result is out and I want it evaluated, do I pay additional 200 CAD?[

At the moment, the fees still stands at $100 to add an extra certificate.

sir, I know ppl from faculty of science that did it oo.. the program is 4 years botany is 4 years.. diploma is one year.. for diploma u will be verified twice from unilag 1) for the merged bsc award.. secondly for just d diploma.. ur adv diploma u Wana do starts next year anyways so u can just try this our route.. I understand ur situation u are scared of the outcome.. just give it a try

Hello Good Morning
i intend using two different Noc's my present place of work; my current and former.
My current basically is customer service but its tilted towards some technical aspects i was able to come up with a certain job description which aligns with a technical aspects of my job which actually is what i do at work,i requested a letter of reference and pleaded with them to include it as my job description but they said that they have their own template as to what a customer care rep does and that is what they'll work with
As for my other place of work i resigned 2 years ago i can actually use that and provide them with payslips but just that we were paid in cash for the whole time i worked there and my fear is that if the visa officer should ask for bank statement showing salary deposit i wont be able to provide it just pay slip and a letter of reference which they have promised to assist with

For people that did jupeb with diploma I still haven't gotten clarification whether it is seen as two certificate with bsc..

I did mine back in February and it took about 5hours. Though they usually advised the average time as 6hours on the minimum. Due to the ongoing pandemic, it might take longer now

TemTon:

I can't say. Six months should be fine or write an LOE
