Thank you so very much.

But this is s clearer position of my situation.

I attached two reference letters to my application ( my former employer and current ) where i performed same duties and it falls under the same NOC. My previous employer stated the number of hours worked while the current employer did not state the number of hours worked.

I spent 3 years & 4 months with my previous employer which gives me just 11 points.

It is possible that i can be assessed with the previous letter only?

This would drop my over score to 68******.

PLease throw more light.

Thanks,
If you're sure you'll score 71 without the marks for your current experience, then don't bother

Hello,

Apologies, my overall score will be 68points.

Details:
My score was 72 points. To discount the points score with my current employer, i might loose 4points which drops to 68 points.

Do you understand?

Also can CIC use only my previous employer?

Previous and current duties = NOC: 1114

1. Confirm from GTB which of your accounts is d default and check what the POS limit on the default account is to be sure it exceeds the naira equivalent of your application fees.

2. Follow the activities on the global thread. Once the first charging is done on any application that shares same submission date with yours, do a mail to cardservices@gtbank.com, authorising the debit.

3. Do num 2 above n go to a branch to check if any attempt was made every 72 hours.

The options look strenuous but ain't nothing ...

You actually do not have a problem in my opinion. What you need is a minimum of 1year of full employment in the NOC you applied under. I did not get a reference from my previous employers but in included a cover letter (with employment letter, promotion letter, etc at the previous job). My current reference letter did not also state number of hours, but mentioned "full time employment". I do not think you should sweat it.

All you need is a valid 67 points. If you can get that with a suitable JD experience letter, the rest points is irrelevant.

In my case, my self calculated point was 67 on d dot and God made it worth 100 points. I got my PER and waiting MR et al any moment from now.

Relax, you are good to go.

Hi Toronto raptor, just want to ask a few question concerning what u said, were u awarded marks for the previous job that u didn't get reference for.

Dear all,
Congrats to all who got updates. I kept checking and tried responding several times but will change my mind as depression wan finish me. I did medicals in Nov, Accra asked me for update in Dec instead of PPR because the birth cert we sent for our first child wasnt the one at birth (infact one issued 4 years later) because we changed her name. I started imagining all kinds of problems, that they will ask for DNA, Paternity etc. I was imagining how our savings will be depleted and application delayed for MONTHS because of a seemingly harmless action we took 6 years ago! No be small tin.

Not 1 minute ago, I recieved PPR. PRAISE GOD. :D In other words, guys, get ready. Accra has woken up for PPR and MR folks.

Congrats to you Zoze. Accra has resumed back to work. Let them keep it flowing.

I pray we all receive update soon

1. Leave your account funded and advice your bank of the transaction, giving them your authority to let it go through
2. Don't use the card, lock it up at home till it is charged. Open another savings account if you need an account for your daily activities, avoid using the account linked to the card whose details you sent with your application till further notice.
3. You can check activity on your account with your internet banking access. Some banks send alerts when there is activity on your card, monitor these as well.

With the above and prayers, you should be fine :)
