Depends on what you are comfortable with and how high your crs score is. If your score is high enough, you can decline and re-enter.
But I think these mistakes can be explained.
Name: Same person affidavit.
TRF: As long as it is just number and not also date issued. You add a LOE and ensure that your TRF is included in your application.

Hallo! I just discovered that I didn't type my full names and my TRF number is also wrong on my EE profile (I guess I was too excited). How can I correct the errors? Should I decline the invitation, as I am post-ITA?
Wishing you all a blissful night!

Hi!

I just sent you a message about your - please share.

khinde:

OK please send a pm

Hi guys,
Please I have a question. During application do one have to state all our work history for the purpose of EE or can we choose to be silent on some?
For example if one is not able to get reference letter from some place of work, should one still sight that organization?

jmnsimone:
Hi!

Could you please share your ? I'm stuck on this stage too

Hi, I need the pls.

Work history is to get points and should be backed with reference letter.
Anything else will go under personal history post-ITA.

Happy Sunday house.

Please help me. I went to take port photos for the EE profile and I want to be sure about somethings.

I read somewhere that the photos must not be edited in any way and must be taken against a plain white background.

Mine was edited a little, not so much, just a little touch here and there and then the guy put the picture on a whiter background than the original one.

Will this have any negative effect please? Or do I need to go and take another one? Are they very strict with these conditions? Please help

Dear all, I have this question. For someone like me that stayed in China for 5 months and 13 days in 2011 and for 19 days in 2018. Making 6 months and 2 days. Do I still need police certificate report ? Despite traveling to China twice in two different years.

Yes I think you do. I have a friend...similar situation...UK...diff times...both more than 6months in total. She was asked to add a PCC via ADR.....

to avoid plenty story and LOEs, and maybe ADRs ..why not decline and re enter the pool, it's just an extra two weeks...and for ITA once u are above the cut off its a sure thing....so two extra weeks and do it right and have peace of mind......

In view of this I don't think an application should be rejected on that ground.

*Also during the filling and ing of documents, I noticed no place , where IELTS is requested , and ECA. They only ask for Education and degrees* merge these three docs and in the education and degree folder. U can "I love PDF" and use it to merge the files....it should not be more than 4mb the merged file

What I did was this...I took a screenshot of all the pdfs, inserted and arranged them in a Word document and saved the document as a pdf

DonTee07:
Whew! I'm up to date now. It's not easy reading pages to catch up.
Okay, back to my rant I wanted to give.

A couple of weeks back, I and my spouse wanted to submit an app and do biometrics. We went to Abuja VFS and to our surprise, we were turned back and told to go submit in Lagos. They further said...any applicant from South South, South East etc MUST submit in Lagos.

I insisted on seeing the Manager, expressed my displeasure and asked why this development wasn't on their website to guide people accordingly. He just apologised and told us, it's directive from the embassy.

I dont know if its just me but the -of-staff at VFS are extremely rude...even to the gateman.

Also....who knows, they might want to introduce same measure for Canada biometrics....

Peeps coming from outside Lagos or Abuja to submit should call them to ascertain they wont be turned back.

This is probably application for a Dutch visa? Sorry bro it's very strict. Belgium handles north, handles south. VFS Lagos and Abuja are simply respecting that arrangement. And the rules have been in place since 2013 or so.

Won't apply to Canadian biometrics because it's the same canada handling entire Nigeria.

Hello guys is it necessary that the police

clearance certificate must be from CID Ikoyi

(address on CIC) what if I get police clearance

from CID in my state?

Yemsot:


Can we actually do that? Will sending scratch card to WES replace the verification they do with the examination body?

Yes it will replace it. I guess thats why they now request for scratch card

Is there no one that wishes to send Waec scratch card to WES? Hoping to get mine done this morning

that might work also if it's clear...but won't it look weird....it would be obvious u snapped a pic...eg my phone when I take a screen shot it shows the lower buttons .....well I think merging the original scanned docs is better....use the 'ilovepdf' app. It's on play store and iOS....and also on the web.

Good morning all..Good work from this thread helping people out with applications.I am the principal applicant and have gotten all documents ready but there is a little snag.My spouse who works with one of the banks in Nigeria has found it difficult to get a job reference letter in IRCC format..pre-ITA I entered her job history as s officer.I have looked at page 1 of this thread and some of the requirements in this scenario are difficult to get.. Currently she has her letter of employment and pay stubs since last year may from when she was employed till date..Their HR offered to write a letter of introduction addressing it to the Canadian embassy and probably state her designation in the bank but will not outline her duties nor her annual salary.We initially intended to the employment letter,pay stubs/bank statements showing monthly salary and even a picture of her at work and also the letter from HR though not in IRCC format.
I wanted to know if we are in order...is there any other thing that should be done?We didn't use her job experience to claim points pre-ITA but since we filled it we just have to provide evidence..Please help a brother .Thanks

Debsify:
there's someone reliable who can help get it done as soon as possible.. Jasmine is using him for verification , and I used him for my transcript.. he's reliable.

Hi Debsify. Please can you send me details of this person. I'd be most grateful. You can email me �. Thanks

Your spouse experience is not counted for score hence you don't need reference letter .You can put in work history but just show in your Letter of explanation that the work is not counted for score since you're the primary applicant incase ircc is requesting for it or remove her experience from work history and move it to personal history post ita.

Do not try it. IRCC has specifically listed CID Ikoyi on their website.

I think the major thing is for your work experience to be up to 3yrs and most advisable you get reference(s)
from d most recent. Especially in this ur case, if d employer is ur former coy and u think u've got others to make up for it(including d most recent) to make it atleast 3yrs, then you good to go.

No, you don't.

Because someone said I need it. Am really confuse on what to do. Getting such cert from China is a challenge.

Don't decline... Just start over the whole process...

There's a start over button just above your profile... once you decline it might take up to a year to get ITA back...

Its a Application. Yea, they said its the rule but why not inform people?

They should put a caveat or something on their website to guide people accordingly. Its unfair that its at the point of submission that one will be told such. Luckily my children dont need it, I can imagine the stress if I had gone with my whole battalion.

Time is money my brother and such info saves time and money by extension. May God help us in this country cos the see Finish is appalling.

Precisely... what months were in China... example... March to August...

That's how you'll know if you'll require a Chinese PCC...
