Queencyco:


I tried to solve this verification issue with ICES by persuading my school to send my transcript / statement to ICES via email. They received my documents way before the hard copy got to them. I am hoping that with this, they won't need to send any verification email.i did this for hubby's ABSU degree and my Uniport degree.

My advice: If you're using ICES, lobby the issions officer in your school to send your documents via a valid email and still do courier. This MAY save you from verification.

If the school send both ways, how long did it take for the ECA to be completed?

To be or not to be, that is the question.

If you choose to inform, you can use either. See email: [email protected].

Hello Ifeoma and Joo,

please further to your response below, I have decided to inform CIC. My VO is ottawa. Should I mail them directly or use the web form? Also please could you help with ottawa’s email address too? Thanks

Dear Ifeoma and Joo

please in view of the mail below, I guess I should hold on regarding informing CIC about the change of employment? I don't want any further delays.

Good day everyone am new here and I just want to ask my elders here what our chances are.

I am female, 36years, married with two children
My IELTS is 7band overall scores
Worked for 5yrs in d past but stopped working 4yrs ago
I have a master's degree

My husband is 38yrs has about 15yrs working experience in the banking sector, has his master's too but yet to write his IELTS .

Pls my elders what are our chances and the best option for us

You have a very good chance but it all depends on IELTS. If you max out and your husband gets the standard 8777 LRSW, you'll be sitting comfortably at 449.

1) Has ****, and if applicable, **** family taken any trips outside their country of origin or of residence in the last ten years (or since their 18th birthday if this was less than ten years ago). Include all trips: tourism, business, training, etc.

Am I supposed to include my parents or my siblings trips?

2) I did freelance work as a writer for a friend's company. Do I include it in my personal history? It was voluntary initially but he started to pay me later on
3) I am using NYSC as part of my work experience. So it is already part of my personal history as employment activity. Do I still need to include it as a paramilitary service?
Thanks in advance

1. Just spouse and children
2. Yes include it in personal history
3. No

Eeyah.

Has anyone experienced this before and what is the way forward?
Thank you.

Hey Guys! I need advice...The employer I intend to use ( A secondary school) as proof of work experience paid by hand (cash). As a result, I dont have payslips so all I can get is a reference letter. Will this be a problem?

Try to see if they can agree to giving you payslips.

Finally, Unilag replied WES’ verification mail. They have updated my status thrice showing “we’ve received your documents. We’re processing your documents”. The dates for each of the updates are 02/06, 02/07, 02/08.

I’m evaluating only MSc. And my NECO has long been accepted since October.

My question is, when do I start counting the 20 days for ECA report, please?

I just sent my degree certificate to WES via fax using Hellofax after receiving a notification from them yesterday. My concern is that it took WES over a month (about 40 days after receiving my transcript) to notify me that they require my degree certificate. All along, the status of my evaluation had been "Evaluation in progress; you do not need to do anything at this time". So now I'm wondering if the 20 days are already counting. Also, I have still not received any message from WES that they sent my transcript to my University in Nigeria for verification. Do they skip that process sometimes?

Ifeoma77:

It's not about that, is your school very proactive in responding to verification requests? Do you have a ? If yes, then WES is a good choice and definitely faster.
Also, since it's a Nigerian degree, WES will require WAEC.
If not, better go with IQAS/ICES to avoid verification issues.

I think we need to take a closer look at WES and its recent delays, even before the verification stage.

Transcript finally delivered to WES on Feb 19, I followed up with a call and was updated to "We received your document(s). We are reviewing your document(s)” on Feb 23 & same again on Feb 25. Now up till this moment, no email or update about verification being sent to institution. I've called a couple of times and sent messages through their " Us" form, still nothing.

Another instance is that of @amoskitto quoted above. So, I think this should be considered when advising people on which evaluation body to use.

Any advise on what to do please? I'm considering the Facebook messenger suggestion but I really don't know, maybe I'm the one being impatient.

Hmm!

Just play around with the CRS tool to determine your scores. But you should be the PA since you are younger. For sure there is hope

Nigeria which way? Must we always be associated with fraud? Soon they might start asking for SSCE and verification

Its a shame

I don't think they've ever skipped verification for a degree obtained in Nigeria. It is well.

I’m sorry, I don’t have any .

I had to strategically send one epistle mail to records.

We are really enjoying on this thread.

Someone I know paid David Cohen..he didn't even breakdown the process to them. Just collected first payment and asked them to send IELTS result and Evaluation report. They didn't even know about them. Next thing they are asking for second payment.
Cohen even told them their CRS is 462
But its 435 using the wife as PA at age 29,3 years work experience and only a Bsc

Husband has HND with age 42 so he can't be PA

I calculated 435 but I have no idea why Cohen is telling them 462

You can call them via Skype: +1 (800) 361-6106
