better chance of getting your 15k back...

Well, what the writer earlier said was that it is easy to your HR directly from that letter head than ur line manager, especiallly when they are not fully convinced. And i believe we both agree your HR will definitely deny knowledge in such situation. Hence d reason to rather have it on a plain paper notarized, with his details and ID card attached. The essence of this is just to avoid unnecessary delay in ones application. Better to just play it safe u know.

Thanks for the . I submitted my application before knowing about this thread. My AOR is early December. What would you advise in this case.

I also submitted a LOE for a change of NOC post ITA.
I added the LOE, Line manager reference on Company letter head, and pay slip for each year I've worked.. About 4 years..

Don't know If I should be worried. Only God knows how much I want my golden PPR email..

Chicagomum:
I dont understand. Please explain. Thank you.

I think the idea is that if anyone of them is upgraded, you will get your money back, so 'people' choose to remark the 2

It is usually advised to add speaking when remarking writing so you have an increased chance of getting your money back... incase writing comes back unchanged..

Guys this is my first time writing I’m so broken inside I don’t even know what to do again. Writing ielts for the 3rd time and still not making it is devastating. especially for the fact that I’m unemployed and I have to save the money everytime on my own. It’s really devastating.
1st try with BC. LRWS- 8.5, 6.5,7,8.5
2nd try with IDP LRWS- 7.5,8.0,6.5,8.5
3rd try with IDP LRWS: 8.5,6.5,6.5,8.5
This is demoralizing I have done my ECA since August just waiting on this IELTS and now I was really hoping this would be the last time but I can’t believe I have to continue this again next year. I prayed and prayed and I studied and studied still nothing. This is almost 300k wasted. Having to watch my friends that I even told about the program move on and get PPR and I’m still stuck here. � lemme just stop typing I’ve been crying since morning.

Finally gathered enough strength to post my result.

Listening 7.5

Speaking 6.5

Reading 7.5

Writing 7.0

Would have risked a remark if I had 8 in listening as I'm highly optimistic my speaking would come out positive. The writing I thought I messed up with came out fine.

Uhmmmmm. Different strokes for different folks.

Na to refire, no retreat.

joo2018:
Lol.
Na to look for other things!

Is there any Provincial Nomination Programme you can direct me to? I've been reading up Alberta and Manitoba but what they are saying is making my brain heat up. Simple question, how can I check eligibility and they were telling me many things.

Its ok to feel this way. Can you at least apply for a remark of your writing? Say YES!!!!
As we rightly say, It will end in praise.

Mummy chichi you can do it. Yes it hurts so much, most of us have ed through that stage. You will IELTS, get ITA, PPR and testify here. Your Testimony space has been created already on this thread so you must fill it.

When I started this journey I told myself that I must this exam even if it takes me 10times. I will just beg/save up for the next exam.

Please aim at the price, save up some money, write again and/or remark your writing, you are almost there.

It will end in praise.

Oh I see. Thanks alot for this vital information. I will include it immediately.

I heard writing ielts with IDP is easier to instead of British council. Its like british council does random marking coz of the imcreasing number of people writing these days. I know someone who had been getting low ielts score after many trials and then tried that of IDP and finally got the scores he wanted. check out their website.

Are you a female? Are you based in Lagos? Let's chat.

Sorry, but the Q is best answered here: https://nairaland.unblockandhide.com/4180147/all-canadian-provincial-nominee-programs

The main requirement is generally if your occupation is in demand.

When I read post like this, i comment because I feel your pain. You did well by coming out. The 300k is not waste, do you know some people travel to Dubai to gate crash job fairs for provincial nominations? Though yours is more painful because you are unemployed but you have the INTEREST and DETERMINATION which is the key. Since it is only IELTS holding you, you must it.

You are almost there, don't give up. Continue practicing till you get funds for another exam. In addition, continue praying and fasting for financial favours from God for this process. GOD will not give u a Cross greater than you.

Your Canada dream cannot be stopped by anything. Your testimony date has been fixed here.


It will end in praise

I know someone that went to dubai for NB job fair and didn't get the nomination, he has also written IELTS like 5times, so my people please don't give up o, lines will definitely fall in pleasant places for you.

Sending you a mail asap

Well I am not good with English but I used Jay all thru. I watched all his videos on how to write an essay. I followed all the guidelines even paid for marking. On the test date, I wrote with pen, my writing was so rough that u wanted to rewrite it but there wasn't enough time. But I touched all the points and conclude the way Jay thought us.
I will advise to stick with one material, the one that u can easily understand.

Dealkid:


Oga / Madam Compu001, how? WRITING? 8? Please what materials did you use?

Zinggi:

Okay thank you

Mama, you can't give up now. Double up and do it again. Change the material you were using before and use another one that u can understand.

Ok guys, i think na fear no let me see road, i was the one not inputting my 2nd name so as such result didnt show.

IELTS FINALLY!!!!!!

1st Attempt BC- LRWS - 8.5, 7, 6.5, 7 I asked for remark for Speaking and Writing, Speaking moved to 8 but writing didnt.
2nd Attempt MOD - LRWS - 7.5, 7, 6.5, 8. This listening on September 29 was mad i lost concentration
3rd Attempt MOD - LRWS - 9, 7.5, 7, 8.5 .....

This day was so God ordained, Baptism was scheduled for this day, i had already ignored the Baptism that I can make cos I had exam but the day before my Pastor called me and said we will be quick that I should come. I left for Baptism like 7am, got to centre like 8.30am, everyone was already seated. I sha sat down, during the listening my hands were shaking, the fear of writing this again, it was towards end of Reading i became calm.

My speaking nko, the woman asked me about sports i was just blabbing, i thought i did poorly, though i made her laugh a little, told her about how people died coos they bet all their money

Enough Story, God came through for me big time!!!!! Let me go and look at it again

If you are still on IELTS dont loose hope

Do not be discouraged. Maybe you should consider remarking your writing.

the tunnel may seem dark now but there is always light at the end of the tunnel.
