I used ICES too and got my eca in 3 weeks. Was stuck with iqas like forever. It took them 5 weeks to acknowledge my transcript reciept after courier delivery confirmation, then i had to wait another 9-10weeks for the eca proper.
I canceled and reinitiated with ices, thanks to @folar . eca came through after 3 weeks. Am already in the pool with crs 441, meanwhile my eca with iqas expected to be ready around 2nd week in November.
I paid with a dollar debit card for the ices application .

Thanks @mummyjaygirls ànd @rebarobyn

IOM is not cheaper if you have kids. Hence folks go with Abuja Clinics. IOM na for single people and non parents.

Please wats abuja clinics bill for kids

MummyJaygirls:
Preferable? i do not know, but i used abuja clinic

Thanks @mummyjaygirls
Please do i need to pre-book?

elfmann:
You can fix the whole cash after receiving ITA. Only the certificate!

Thanks alot

elfmann:
Fix the cash for six months, maybe jointly.

Thank you @elfmann
Please can i use it for my applications one week after fixing? In this case what documents do i neee from the bank? Any need to statement and reference letter?

Hello people, 
With the hope of getting ita in the next draw, I am having some confusion with my pof, my spouse is supposed to transfer the full amount to me but the account from where he will be transfering from is a corporate acct (he is the sole signatory). I learnt this isnt acceptable.

Can u advice the best way to go with this as i intend submitting application as soon as ita comes.

[quote author=hayor2014 post=60540755][/quote]Hello @hayor2014
Depending on ur method of communication with ur former employer.
I wrote a mail to mine requesting for a reference letter addressed to CIC, I stated the informations I would need them to capture in the reference letter as advised by CIC.

tollu:
Perfect! All the best sis.
That business account part though, I'm not sure how that will work. Hopefully someone with experience in that area will chuk mouth.

Hmmmm. My dear , he will transfer the whole sum to my account and then we write LOE. What do u think? He is a biz man and won't want to lay idle that amount of money for 6months(family size is 5).
The plan is to transfer it to my account wen we land ITA (am really hoping that with LOE, that can fly).
Other seniors abeg make una chuk mouth.

tollu:
Congratulations dammysanmi!



Chei! IQAS falling hand big time. Don't worry though, it will all fall into place.
Have you gathered everything else? So you can submit in less than a week after ITA.

Thanks for the good wishes

Amen to ur prayer.
Yes I have my employer reference letter already, I also have ielts. the remaining docs (pcc and medicals) have to be post ita. Pof will be from spouses biz acct so the transfer will be done post ita (I hope that will fly though). Hopefully am looking at submitting within one week by God's grace

tollu:
Hi superdoll
Recently submitted. AOR 2nd September. Not far at all.

Oh really! The count down begins.
Wishing a speedy PPR.
Am still @the awaiting IQAS level. Lol

tollu:
Yay! Congratulations Zaragirl

Hello @tollu , how far with ur application . Kindly share ur timeline so far

Please any idea if I can pick up my trf from BC abuja on Fridays.......what time please?

elfmann:
I will advise she does it before going into the pool. I mean the adoption papers!

Thanks @elfmann

MummyJaygirls:
Yes u must submit docs, if u can get adoption papers before submission, go ahead

Please am following this conversation.
Can adoption papers be processed after ITA? Because I have a similar case too but plan to process the adoption when I get ITA(her parents are both alive and i want to make them the offer post ITA so i dont give them hope and den crash it ) Am aware that when creating profile pre- ITA, am supposed to fill up my number of dependents.
So if I exclude her then and suddenly add her post ITA will it cause me any wahala?

Do I have to wait for their payment request before my school dispatches the transcript? Am planning to get the school to send the transcript tomorrow even though I am yet to make payment .
Finally do drey accept statement of result

yimiton:
441 is a very solid score. I don't believe you have any reason to worry at all. It will definitely be your turn soon. Keep the hope alive.

Thank you so much. Amen to ur prayers.

cochtrane:
I don't think you should be worried. Indications are that, given the current rules and trend, the CRS cut-off will remain as low into the new year. And if there's gonna be rule change, IRCC will provide notice. If I had or I'm gonna have 441 by September I wouldn't be worried at all. Even down to December.

Thank you @cochtrane. I feel comforted. Congrats on ur ITA. ......Sure deserved

My dear I have called and sent messages severally. It is well with us iqas clients

Iqas don scatter o, sorry. Have u tried calling and sending a mail? These guys are not serious o [/quote

1 month (4 weeks +2days) after transcript deliver to IQAS and yet no acknowledgment. To tink that I still have another 9 to 10 weeks to wait after der confirmation makes me want to start this ECA process afresh with ICES or WES.
CRS score will be 446 wen ECA is recieved but after my birthday in sept it will drop to 441.
Now I can't afford to have these guys (CIC) draw at higher scores. Seriously praying that the scores temaim low through the rest of the year.
Can I really wait till November to get my ECA from IQAS.
I am really worried...........

DereI:
Did you mail them? They have it stated on their website;

I tracked items I sent to IQAS by courier, but I did not receive confirmation. What do I do?
Once your courier confirms delivery, please allow three weeks to receive confirmation. If you do not hear from us within three weeks, please contact us at 780-427-2655 or one of our additional contact methods.

Hmmm. Mine was recieved on 24th of last month. No acknowledgment yet. I called and dey told me it's not been updated. I asked wat I shuld do dey asked me to wait it out that if I haven't got an email acknowledgement it means dat dey haven't reached the date which my docs were recieved. Infact dat dey aren't in the same building with people sorting out mails so can't even confirm for me. I tire for iqas...1 month no acknowledgment. I never even start to count my 6 weeks

phf2be:
Hello friends, anyone here successfully used WES or IQAS to obtain ECA for a Kogi State University degree? Please share your experience I beg you. The thought of going this route is so scary.

Yes.... mine was post graduate school though. Have been waiting since January for them to call off strike. Had a contact person in Business Admin. So he helped me processed wen dey called off last month. It's 10k officially but the PG admin guy insisted on 20k (in his words "20k for 2 days turn around time and 10k for 4months, the choice is urs" ......ofcos u knw wat i chose Lol and truly it was ready by the 3rd working day after dey got my 20k alert). They do nipost and I don't want stories so paid another 16k for UPS. And den sorted my contact person 5k. In all I spent about 41k.
PS: am still in the process of verification with IQAS though. ECA not yet out. I will advise u use iqas cos WES is gonna be a long tin with them. And remind the person processing d transcript for u r reconfirm ur date of birth in their document. I asked as dey were preparing mine and found out dt dey had a wrong date. I gave dem the correct one

Ielts result LWRS 8.5, 7.5, 7.5, 7.5
Glory to God.
Awaiting IQAS

Wura27:
Hi,

Mehn this post is rather long! Surprised you are writing to complain about it here when you should be complaining to your bank HR.

I've worked with 3 banks and used all 3 as work reference. I did not have any trouble with any of them, most bank HRs have written letter to CIC for their staff so they are usually helpful.

All 3 banks asked me to write my job roles and responsibilities and send to them.

Don't talk to one HR staff, send a mail to your HR group. Do u mind telling the bank? Might be one of the ones I've worked with....

Well, I have done mails to them but all seem to land on this same guy's desk. He isn't forthcoming with solution. Claims that it's what he is seeing on my profile as well as my signature.
Can I pm u pls?

Goodevening pple. Long post alert!!!!
Please I need some help:
1. Hope I can get reference letter prior to ITA (as am not yet in the pool sef). I left organization some yrs bak so wanted to start early but surprisingly they were swift.

2. Organisation did not give me reference letter in exact same format. They letter seemed a bit complicated and they aren't forth coming with correcting/simplifying it. Let me explain: I served with dem as a marketer and was retained also as a marketer for 3 yrs. So wanted the entire 4 years reference(I ran a masters programme while working so incase the masters yrs is assumed as part time, the 4 yrs will still make up 3 yrs max point fr me). Now they wrote; Nysc marketer 2008 to 2009.
Account officer 2009 to 2012, team member commercial banking 2012 to 2013.
All the above job titles are exactly same in the bank, they would have jst written marketer or acct officer in all rather Dan separating it to seem like diff job functions in same organization.
Den on job functions dey wrote " account officer/team member commercial banking" (den listed all the job function) they did not incluse the marketer (job title the letter gave me for NYSC. Even though all of the job titles are same with exactly same function, VO might not knw this and may assume they shuld represent different NOC. They also did not include my salary for the service year.
Meanwhile my 2 supervisors then have resigned with the bank so can't get any to write me a supporting reference with his complimentary card.
Can I write an LOE and perhaps attach the statement where I was paid salary for the nysc job. Won't the VO believe that there must be something different about the job titles to warrant the employer list all 3 of them it at different times dt i worked wt the bank.
I have called the guy that prepared the letter to save me all the stress by just capturing one job title to avoid confusion since we both knw that dey are exactly same but unfortunately he is adamant.
Kindly advice me
