BabatundeGPD:
Hello house, my remark came back with no improvement, I was advice to take ielts and get 8 overall. I don't think ielts is fair is marking and may be too strict. So mayb celpip, but am on low budget and I don't believe in write another English exam, because their is no guarantee to max all, and wat if the celpip is low to the 7.5 ielts then money wasted. So considering French, I did a little French in sch as an international relations student since 2016, I have not read or study any French. But now I believe with YouTube videos I can build my self, and take a month physical class a d write the exam. I don't really know wat mark will qualify me for the French category but I believe the French grade will add to my crs plus ielts 7.5, and some pnp will favour French. My crs is currently at 35something will get d exact figure later. Pls I need advice and guidance

Practice writing like a beginner.
CRS of "35somthing", you will need to ace both English language test and French.

Good evening everyone…please I need your advice. I was exempted to write only management and strategic case study. Is it a good idea for me.

If your intention is to use it for a second certificate to boost your CRS score, you will have to forfeit your exemption to take just the first introductory stage (certificate in business ba1-ba4). If not, you can go ahead with the exemption given to you. With management and strategic level given to you, that should take about a year and half or more to complete. For a guide or study material, let me know below 👇

Hello,
I would like to get some guidance on possible ways to improve my CRS score. My professional experience of over 7 years has been in HR with masters. I was also able to get an average of 11 in CELPIP test but I can see my experience is not in any of the preferred NOC categories.
I still entered the pool, CRS score of 454 what are my chances and what can I do boost my CRS score at this point ?

Try to add a second language

Please I need advice/guidance


So I did my masters in Unilag. Finished last month

I've paid my WES fees. I've also paid unilag to assist send my transcript to WES using my reference number

I've also registered for IELTS, to do the exam in April/May


Please what else do I need to do as I practice for the IELTS?

Or what am I yet to do that i should do?

Focus and pass your IELTS.
While you study, you can keep up with your WES ECA for updates.
Check also that your CRS score is enough to get you invitation in the category that you chose. (If not, explore other options to increase your chances).

Good luck!

Nozino:
Thank you. But how do I prove it?

Platform used,
jobs executed and the corresponding payment receipts/bank statements
Hours spent working,
Recommendations from clients (if any),
Job contracts,
Links to find your self employed job (online profile),
Company registration (if any),
Taxes paid (if any)

And others...

Need a more personal guide, reach out via my signature below or send a mail

Nozino:
Hello everyone.

I’m looking at joining the pool and I’m not sure how to go about the job experience part. For context, I will be 29 next month, I will almost be round up my masters in the US in May. And I’m planning to take the CLEPIP exam during summer after my masters.

My main problem is the job experience part, I have always been a freelancer. I have over 3 years of experience as a Data Analyst and around 1.5years experience as a Data Scientist. My Masters is in a related field but my undergraduate degree is in Engineering.



Assuming I max out the English language points, do I have any realistic chance of getting ITA? I also have Canadian tourist visa if it matters.

You can use your self employed work experience.

chimzyblack:
You will not be invited to apply Until you reach the 12Months work experience threshold. The good part is that it doesn't need to be 12months Continuous. If you already have 6months you need to find a way to get an additional 6months for you to qualify for a category based draw...

In the case that the person chose 12 but has 6, they can still get invitation if their CRS score ranked higher in the pool with the information provided (right or wrong). The problem is that, you can't use the invitation because you're going to provide proof to back all information provided (except a ban or rejection is "hungrying" you). Don't create profile if you don't have all the required documents ready. You will deny a legitimate person the chance to receive invitation.

Damolux01:
Is it now either Celpip or Ielts or one still has to write both?

Either one.

azarenka:
Mine is still showing " Application Under Review"
Congrats to those that have progressed to the next stage.

Please how much is IELTS currently

Depends on the type of test you're taking. It's between 285k to 300k naira.

jackspy:
Hello 👋🏿. Is there anyone who has an idea on what to would happen to the BCS and using it as a second diploma now that the exam is being restructured? what modules or courses would need to be taken, would they still follow the biannual exam timeline etc? please, if you could drop a detailed explanation I'd really appreciate.

Take the Level 4 - Certificate in IT. Next exam is in April. You can reach out below for study resources

Aallizzwellwole:
Hello everyone. Just received a message from IRCC that I should go for my biometric, does this mean my application is progressing very well

Lol, it's a requirement you must fulfill

simplyme17:
Good evening and Happy new month. I am a military personnel looking forward to relocate my family to Canada via the Express Entry route. I am 36 while my wife is 35 year with HND in Dental technology with over 5 years experience. My first degree was in Computer science and currently on Masters in Cybersecurity. Please I want to confirm our chances via this route and who to be the main applicant. I’m not practicing what I studied in the army. That’s my main concern. Your advice is most respectfully needed. Thank you

Your wife should be the primary applicant. You can add French to boost your chances. Not practicing what you studied is not an issue.

Thazard:
Good day house.


Please how do I register for ielts?


I don't know anything about it.

You can register with IDP. Look it up

Sheistimiii:
Hello, please I need help with requesting a document transfer from my US WES evaluation to Canada. I’ve tried reaching out through the site by using the “Contact Us”, no response. I sent out a mail as well but the email addresses I saw online are not being monitored. Please what can I do?

Create a new WES Canada account, select "ECA Application for IRCC," pay the upgrade/transfer fee, and request to convert your existing US evaluation to a Canadian evaluation. WES will then convert the US credentials into Canadian equivalencies and transfer to IRCC.

Terrible!

eDokita:
Please can anyone put me through or links to read through on EE French stream.
Asking for a sibling

This used to be on the page one of this thread, but I noticed several posts were deleted. Do a keyword search, you might find it or just Google.

JenC:
Good morning

I have a 3 years paid work experience in healthcare care but have been freelancing for some years now. Does the 3 years count in EE?

You need at least 6 months of continuous, full-time (or equivalent part-time) work experience in a single occupation listed under the healthcare category within the past 3 years.
If your work experience is up to 6 months or more and within the last 3yrs (counting back from today), then you're good. Note that it has to be among the healthcare occupation listed under the category.

What did you do that changed it for you?
What's that door that opened?
If you're going to lift somebody up with your testimony, at least help them get a clearer perspective.

Jovanna1:
Good morning, I did a 1 year advanced diploma course in social work, can it be evaluated with my Bsc as 2 or more certificates?

I'm not sure. Check on the WES website to see if they evaluate that.

Lol, "play by the rules" like they follow the rules

Churock:
Good morning; Pls can someone guide me on the best route for me. I’m an experienced banker, 30 years old but will be 31 this year, degree holder in Electronic Engineering. What’s the best for me to leave this country. Apologies if I’m dragging anyone back

Take a short certification exam to add a second certificate to your degree to boost your CRS score. Take the English language test and join the express entry pool. You can learn French to add a second language if you can.

Hi All,

Please I am a 42 year single father with a son living in Lagos.
What is the best strategy for me for Canadian immigration?
Job, school or express entry (marraige?)
Should i just take IELTS first adn enter provincial pool?

I've been following the theread for a while and just curious the best way to start things out.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Thank you so much

At 42, you'd need a lot for express entry.

But first, Take IELTS, learn French and also take TEF.
If you have just a single degree, take short certification exam to add a second certificate.
Calculate your CRS score to know how you'd rank in the pool.

Good luck!
