@Drcynthia,you forgot to mention that he should include his TRF alongside the EOR form and bank draft.

@DKM123,for BC,once they are done with remark,they will send you an email stating whether there was an upgrade or not,if there was an upgrade in any of the modules let's say 6.5 to 7,they will state it there but you have to pick up your TRF from their office or you can call them to send it through courier.Their customer care is very efficient now unlike before so,you can call them for further clarification.

Thanks veleta. So once I pay and upload my Master's Certificate, I would just go to my school and request for my transcript to be sent to them.

Thanks again

I will advise to get your transcript ready from your school first because there is always delay in processing transcript from school except your school is very fast with that.Once your transcript is ready from your school,create an account with ICES and make payment then submit.Then send your school your ICES reference number the next day to forward your transcript by email or through courier.
Remember to upload your international passport and marriage certificate if you are married for clarification for name discrepancy.

Good afternoon, Pls after applying online, on their site Nd paying the fees. What else did u do? I want to verify my master's Certificate....

Your school should send your official transcript to them either through school's official email address or through registered courier.Official email should not be yahoo or gmail.Subject of the mail should be:Transcript for xxxxx(Ref no).Send the school the reference no you got from ICES when you created an account.It starts with A00.....

Please is it only transcript that ICES requires, what of certificate?

Your school will send your transcript only
You will scan and upload your international passport and your certificate.If you are married,upload your marriage certificate too.

Please how much did you pay for d delivery? And is it advisable for my school to send my transcript via email to ICES and finally what address did you use as second recipient? Thanks

Recorded /special mail which you can track is $26.They use UPS.
Your school can send your transcript through official school's email address not yahoo or gmail
Second recipient can be IRCC.

damzy88:
These days, people choose to get married and have children in their thirties,rather than at a younger age. Is this a positive or negative development?

This is today's Task 2 writing. What is the best way to approach this?

Thanks

You can either agree that it's a positive development by saying settling down in thirties helps people to gain financial stability,career establishment as well as prepare them emotionally for commitment that comes with marriage.This should be your thesis then,you support these ideas in subsequent paragraphs.

You can also say it's a negative development then give reasons why you think so

@Vanillawafers,Personally,I would answer 'yes' to that question and then explain in loe that I have sufficient point hence,not claiming points for sibling and also state that my siblings are not willing to give out their personal details ie PR card,utility bills,etc.In western world,they respect privacy a lot unlike in Africa where we are too sentimental.You can be my sibling but I still deserve my privacy.So,it's not a big deal to a VO.

Saying 'no' to that is risky and remember,VO's discretions are not the same,some may be lenient while others might be over zealous.

@Lexus430,and other experienced guys,please I would appreciate your input here.
We were hit by someone couple of months back and the lady that hit us accepted liability,thanks to CCTV.We got her details then forwarded them to our insurance guys(Admiral).The car was towed to garage for fixing then Admiral linked us to Auxillis which is a Car Hire Company as we were entitled to courtesy car.

We signed the agreement which included releasing our debit card details with them while waiting for the car to be fixed.After 3 days,we got a call from Admiral that the car was a write off hence,we would be reinstated and that once we get the cheque,we would have 1 week to return the courtesy car.We went ahead and bought another car even before they sent a cheque.

When we got the car,we called them asking for time and venue to drop the car but Auxillis kept on saying they would get back to us for the date and time.After delaying for 5 days,little did we know that it was a delay tactic to make more money,they eventually came and picked the car.

We got the shock of our lives when Auxillis sent a mail to us saying that the insurance company of the woman that hit us refused to pay for car rental which was £2,500 for 3 weeks which was obviously inflated by Auxillis hence,they appointed Principia Law firm on our behalf to recover the money.

Their argument is that we should have mitigated loss by paying for car rental upfront with cash as it is cheaper as opposed to agreeing for credit.Meanwhile,this option wasn't mentioned to us and the insurance company of the woman that hit us didn't offer to give courtesy car as they were the ones to bear the cost.

It's really frustrating knowing that we even got a new car even before we got cheque from them yet they still came up with this fraud.They sent a letter asking us to submit our debit and credit bank account details 3 months before and after the accident occurred.Their arguement is for them to ascertain whether we could have afforded to get a car by paying cash instead of agreeing to hire a car by credit and obviously,the account balance is very healthy.

What's your advise please?

Please guys what's the best ECA evaluation body right now in terms of speed of service? I'm using WES (Still waiting on FUTO to send transcript) but I want to use another company for my wife's bachelor's degree, because I don't have money to throw on verification and WAEC.

I just mentioned few pages back that ICES is very fast,that mine took 5 weeks for the entire process.ICES does not do back and forth verification like WES.Let your school send your transcript through their official email address or they send it through courier to ICES then on your part,you scan and upload your coloured certificate and international passport to them through email.

Pls i need help with it.

Type ICES ECA evaluation and detailed process pops out.However,click on *apply now*, fill in your details,your reference number with A000.....,will be displayed,take note of that then after filling it,scan and upload original B.sc or whatever degree you have in coloured as well as your international passport.There is a placeholder for each document.Of you are married,upload your marriage certificate in the placeholder for*others* this is important to prove the reason for discrepancy for the names in your certificate and international passport.

Go ahead to make payment with debit card as it is accepted notwithstanding their website specifically said only credit card is accepted.Courier fee for Canadian address is $26 while international address is$75.

Then for official transcript,your school *must* send it to ICES through the school's official email address or they can courier it to ICES.Official school email address should not be yahoo or gmail.

I would suggest you follow up with your school so that once the transcript is ready,you can create an ICES acccount,submit then send the reference no to your school to submit the next day or so.

They only send acknowledgement of documents,and completion of ECA to your email or you can log in to your account to see it too.

Once your school sends your transcript to ICES,send them a mail to confirm receipt and you will get response within 48 hrs.Goodluck guys.

The whole process was 5weeks.
