Yes that's the latest format and it makes things so much easier.
Excuse me, you mean we don't need to go to waec again? Sometimes when we read good news in English, we don't seem to understand, please try to understand me and break it down. Thanks

You need to get your WAEC scratch card and send it to WES, no need to go to WAEC office again.

Good morning everyone. Please I have a question and with the all the knowledgeable people around I know iwould get the appropriate answer.

So here goes-

My international passport carries a compound surname while all my other documents have just my maiden name. I have a newspaper publication of my change of name which was done while I was still married. I am currently divorced and have a child whom I have custody of. I kept my passport with the compound surname because of my child then. Now I am thinking of changing back to my maiden name before taking the IELTS and starting the entire process for my child and myself.

Is this required? Can I just do an affidavit to this effect? Please advice. Help a sister.

Many thanks.

Do you have the divorce and custodial documents? If yes, you could write your IELTS with your current passport, after its expiry, do another passport with your maiden name and do a one and same person affidavit attached with your post ITA application.
If you don't have the documents, you should work towards documenting officially, this would make your application straightforward.
Good luck.

Hi @shyee, thanks for you response, it isiappreciated.

Yes I do have supporting documents for the dissolution of the marriage and custody of my child. My passport expires in July 2019 so I was thinking of renewing in January before my test. Would it be advisable to just apply for a change of name and do a new passport altogether?

To make your application straightforward, Yes, do a change of name or do a one and same person affidavit; do a new passport. Write IELTS with the new passport to make your application straightforward again.
Although, you may use your old passport t write IELTS and later change your name which if you do, you'd just explain what happened in a letter of explanation.

Canadavisa is not as moving as Nairaland, or so I think. Ask your original question following this link, though you'd need to register to be able to ask questions...
