Go to https://app.hellofax.com/ and follow the instruction. It's pretty straight forward. Use the free version.

Tdadz:
My good people of this great forum, pls I need ur help regarding my ECA... My transcript from my School just arrived WES in Canada and I need to quickly send my certificate as well. I read sometime ago that a nairalander used fax to send documents to WES, I will need your help on how to go about using the fax app to send my certificate to WES.

Also pls, does one usually get an e-mail notification when the verification is sent to the school and when ECA is ready?

Thanks

I think it was updated sometime in July this year.

Hopefully, it won't delay the process being that we sent the document almost immediately after AOR before they start processing the application, but again, it's better to delay than to be denied because a result that wasn't attached.

When was your AOR?

geebaby10:
Funny thing is that before I got ITA, in April I spent hours reading the website to know the requirements first hand and I didn't see this. Maybe it was an update in the last couple of months or I just skipped that part. We really need to keep studying that site to the tiniest detail.

I raised a CSE to add mine as well. No response yet. I'm waiting for the ten business days to elapse before I begin to over-worry. I hope it doesn't delay my application too much.

Hello guys, remember how we went on and on about uploading or not uploading IELTS result being that there is no place holder for the requirement?

I just stumbled across it on the CIC website that you are required to upload the result otherwise, your application will not be processed.

Thanks to everyone that advised that I should raise a CSE, otherwise, I might have been telling a story that touch at some point.

bbaby84:
Hmmm.... I didn't claim points for my degree too as I didn't evaluate it but I was required to still upload my certificates and IELTS.
Please explain while filling your EE there's a part where they ask for your spouse's degrees then there's a drop down if evaluated, I chose not evaluated so we didn't get points for that but there was still a place holder to upload degree certificates. Was that the case for you?Perhaps raise a CSE with all the degree and IELTS cert and explain.
*or maybe you should have added to to your LOE slot.
What's your AOR?

My sister, i am still on it oo. Infact coming to this thread now is depressing. I called the CIC contact center again yday and was told they cant view my checklist documents although they can see i made payment. so i was asked to fill a web form and submit that there is nothing they can from there end.

i have submitted the web form and i got a message saying it takes 10 working days for them to get back to me. They should just cancel it and i will fill everythg again if they cant find it.
Its some sort of technical glitch or something

Hello Babes, how's it going? Any update from cic? If you are required to start all over like you're proposing, I hope they won't expect you to pay another application fee.

Sorry about this, even this shall pass and we shall sing a song of praise. Soon, we shall be watching Game of Thrones in real winter �

IELTS buddy http://www.ieltsbuddy.com/, Youtube for listening, use the study package that IELTS will send to you after registration, you can actually google it and see the same materials online, http://ieltsliz.com/ and so many other resources you can google online.

Yureyes:
Please I am interested in the Express entry migration. however, I learnt the first thing to do is to write IELTS exam. Please can someone help me with IELTS General practice questions? and how best to prepare for the exam. I intent to write as soon as possible.

Interestingly, I checked my family travel histories and my husband's and son's (who has always travelled with me oh) are there but mine is not there.

To worsen the matter, my Most Recent Travel shows only 1 entry without exit.Still showing that I have till Dec. 23rd 2017 to return. I hope this website without accurate information does not delay my PPR. Hopefully, this is not all CIC relies on for verification.

I got mine in April and just below date at the right side, there's an ECA number that ends with IMM.

If you don't get a response from them, send them a private message on Twitter and also, use their online contact form to contact them. They hardly respond to regular emails.

Raconteur14:
Good evening all,

I have been following posts concerning WES evaluation closely and I have been quite fearful. Clearly stated that my purpose for ECA is immigration and I have a saved copy of my order page. However, my reference code does not contain the IMM everyone has been saying it should have.

I sent a mail to WES Friday evening and await their clarification but is there really any serious implication if the ECA doesn't start with IMM? Has anyone gotten their ECA from WES in recent times? Mine was gotten July 11th.

Seniors in the house please help.

cc @yimiton

Yes, I did. Thanks for the advise. I've raised it already.

40manlappy:
Nice move, especially if you have claimed points for language proficiency. Did you?

cc: bbaby84

upload the soft copy that was sent to you. It's the same as the hard copy.

primeson1:
Wait I, I don't have hard copy of my WES ECA o since last year

I'll just raise a CSE. AOR is 23rd of August.

cc 40manlappy

My spouse didn't assess his degree so, there was no place holder for education for him, which means there was nowhere to upload his IELTS.
How do I submit his IELTS result now that I've already submitted my application?

bbaby84:
Just because you were one of the lucky ones that got away with not uploading your IELTS and ECA doesn't mean you should mislead others. You could have just written your experience as opposed to discrediting other people's advise ( calling it false).
New comers please always try and refer to the CIC website as they constantly update what documents they need from you. Please attach your IELTS and ECA to your degree certificates, it's what IRCC requires.
There's no point in being refused for something you could have done right.
This journey is draining enough....

The number is clearly written on the soft copy. It starts with IMM...

donrabii:
I just got an e-copy of my ECA from WES, expecting the hard copy through NIPOST in a couple of weeks. I would like to get into the pool immediately. Please, is there a way I can generate the ECA number from the e- copy and date of issue. Can I also upload the � opt in my EE profile.

True, very true.

funshobabs:
He/she might not have done everything right. Just Gods favour that's all.

Congrats. This your timeline is very impressive. I''m beginning to wonder if there are some criteria for allocating applications to Ottawa.

Did you choose Ottawa when you were asked where you intend to live in Canada? Do you have any ties in Ottawa? Do you have any ties in Canada at all? What's your NOC?

I think it will be nice to find out if there are some reasons why some people's applications are processed with the speed of light while some snail speed.

Congrats again.

soja84:
Thanks Boss. CPC Ottawa processed my application.

teebaeby:
PPR Mail just arrived! Thank you to the active members of this forum. Canny Christmas loading!
Timeline below:

AOR AUGUST 1
MEDS August 14th
NA2 August 23rd
PPR August 25th

[quote author=dtush post=59826862][/quote]This is an amazing timeline. Congrats!

By post secondary, I want to believe you mean BSc. Note that if you have a Masters, it will be better to assess only your master's degree. Having said that, it's advisable that you use WES or ICES https://www.bcit.ca/ices/eca/. ICAS takes forever but we've received some very positive reviews about ICES' timeline; so you may want to use them.

Marc0110:
I feel really happy to be enlightened by all the information above.
Please I need information on the likely duration for postsecondary assessment by ICAS. They stated 20wks on their website. I was hoping it'll be shorter.
Thank you to all members and admin team.
Any WhatsApp group that one could join

Add your marriage cert + newspaper change of name when you're sending a copy of her certificate. They'll include her maiden name and her married name.

funshobabs:
Now I want to get my Wife's ECA done, I don't even know what to do. She obviously has a new name now. What can I possibly do?

It's usually the same. If there are variations, you must put have put in some different information (no matter how slight) information.

ehix89:
A quick one and i beg for your swift response as usual...

The cumulative score one gets when using the CRS Tools assuming all inputs are correct, is it same with the actual score one finally arrive at. If there are variations what could be the cause?

21 calendar days. Na wa, that guy needs to come and tell us what he did right on this platform.

I just saw a Nigeria with AOR 31/07/2017, PPR date 21/08/2017

With your current status, you have only 326 points. This is very very low and won't give you an ITA but you can do the following to take the points higher:

1. Re-write IELTS and aim for L 8.5 S7.5 R8 W8
2. Your spouse HAS to write IELTS and try to get 8777 and also assess his degree for more points
3. Look out for PNP and give it a try.

By the way, if your spouse is younger, has a masters and better IELTS scores, you guys will stand a better chance with him being the principal applicant.

domvic:
I will be 36 in December dis year
evaluated bsc
have 6years work experience
L 6.5, S 7.5, R 7.5, W 7.0
I don't have anybody in canada

Not true. You'll be asked if you're pregnant and if you are, you'll be given a protective gear during the x-tray examination

Olha:
Thank you. I asked because someone said a preggy can not go through their medical preocedure

WES' assessment can be used to apply to CIC for immigration purposes (which I believe can also be used for job) and if you assess your degree course by course, you can use it for academic purposes.

Tdadz:
Pls need to clarify this : is it true that WES can only be used for academic processes and not for employment?

Yes, you do. Call them to ask if you'll accept a copy or a scanned copy. I doubt that they would sha but you can give it a try and hope you do have a copy?

cochtrane:
Guys,
Do I need my passport for medicals? Passport dey another embassy o.

Cc: boldinc

To answer your questions, we will need the following information:

1. How old are you now and when is your next birthday?
2. what level of education did you assess? (professional course, Master or BSC)?
3. What did you get in IELTS' SLRW
4. Do you have a sibling (sister or brother or brother in-law or sister in-law) in Canada?

With the information above, we can tell you exactly what your points will be.

Meanwhile, you can also do that yourself using this tool http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp

domvic:
congratulations to all that received ITA,
house please I need help with what my score will likely look like
I v done wes and ielts but my hubby didn't do wes and ielts
what will my score look like?

I need help please

cochtrane:
Where did you do your medicals?

cochtrane:
Where did you do your medicals?

quote author=TBDL post=59797448]


Basically entails:
Urine test
Blood test
X-Ray
A little Chat with the doc
Height, weight etc

All in no particular order ..[/quote]The eye test is very important. You need to get your new glasses if you can't see well with the old ones. I don't know at what point it will be regarded as failed but I believe no one wants to find out.

It means you haven't signed it. Did you see a page where you're required to write your full name and sign? If no, you need to return to your account, after updating, click on transmit. Make sure you see the page that'll request for your name and online signature. Once you do that, it will be updated.

Raconteur14:
It showed that it was updated but not transmitted. Where am I supposed to do the transmitting? It took quite a while for it to even reflect that it had been updated and afterwards, I thought it would be transmitted. Only to notice that it wasn't when I got an ITA. If the draw had been less than 433, I would have applied but as it was 434, I can't afford to risk it.

Try to book immediately if you have kids. Q-Life is cheaper with kids but it's not always easy to get a date. If you don't have kids, you can use Children's Practice, it's the same price and you don't have to book down. You can walk in from 8am to 10am any day from Monday to Friday. You can even do it a day to your submission.

kissoflife:
Thank you, but is it wise to wait til few days to submission before I go for medicals? Reason being my pof is still pending

There are specific medical centers that you must visit.

One of them is Q-Life in VI while the other is Children's Practice in Ikoyi. (if you're in Lagos that is) They'll give you the form when you get there.

Call them to schedule and get the list of necessary documents that you'll go with.

For an individual, it's N28,000

kissoflife:
Thank you very much for this info. infact i never knew all this.

I plan to go for medicals close to when i will submit the application but How do i get the medical form that I will take to the Hospital/clinic?

And please what is the format for a gift deed

If the new score still hasn't been reflected, check to ensure that you transmitted the updated portion and signed your name.

Raconteur14:
Congratulations to all those that got ITA. @cochtrane and all the senior gurus, please don't leave us here.

I got an ITA but I might have to reject it yet again. I used a professional certificate that made my score high (two or more degrees). I initially got an ITA but declined it and removed the certificate. Now I have removed the certificate but my scores had not been updated to reflect the true nature and now I have gotten another ITA that still reflects my score with the professional certificate.

I tire to reject ITA o. Haaa... And my CRS will reduce in September because of my birthday. ITA better come out in the next two weeks and be lower than 433 o. #team433

God shower your favour on me

I hope

I hope you've received your AOR now? If you haven't, I don't think you have any reason to panic. It's clearly written on CIC's website that it might be late and if in 5 days you still haven't received it, you should contact them here and report a technical issue. I pray you don't have to.

I hope you've booked medical and taken your passport photo? http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/web-form.asp

Hi, I just checked again. Nothing. The payment was successful. Infarct gtb don debit me .
