Online booking seems to be the surest via their website
Try another Browser (like Google Chrome)

HOW TO BOOK FOR MEDICALS at IOMHAC Lagos or Abuja Center (Upfront Medical or if u got a Medical Invite)

1. I used their website and it worked fine for me. - https://mymedical.iom.int/apps/omas/

2) Go with your International passport. However, if you currently have a medical condition, go with your report and prescription.

3) If it is medical request, they won't give you anything to upload. If upfront, you will get a slip to upload.

4) Please do well to go there with proof of payment of medical fees.
I did not print my transfer slip and that caused a little delay for me. The officer wanted to send me out to print it but I had to practically force him to print it with the printer in the office.
This method may not work for everyone so please go there with the print out of your transfer. Also try to do the transfer two days before your appointment date. It'll make confirmation easy for you. In my case, the officer wrote "Pending" on my progress slip because they were yet to confirm transfer. Save yourself that hurdle.

Further advice:
- Go early. Book for 8am.
- Drink plenty of water before the medical screening.
- Relax, It takes approximately 2 hours 30 minutes. If you are healthy, you will be fine

Please monikers I need help
An agent helped me submit the admission application and also sent me the acceptance letter when I was offered a space in conestoga college, before I discovered Nairaland.
Now today he sent me this page on Ontairocollege board that stated that my offer was revoked in July because I did not accept the offer.
I actually did pay the money to secure the space before the said time.
I believe the agent did not accept the offer in the board page.
Now my question can I redeem this now.
Is there anything I can do about it.
Offer was revoked in July�, going for fall 2020 programme.
I will really appreciate your inputs


The email correspondence from Conestoga College stating that admisson has been revoked is a general trend and almost every international students seeking for a deferment received same mail from the school. Please kindly resend the email and inform the admission office that you would like them to reinstate your admission and defer your acceptance till the next available term. Do this as soon as possible.



It will end in praise

Hi Honorable

That I can't tell,

I don't have experience of Q-life or know anyone who did his/medicals there

Some people might decide to choose Q-life cos of the quite Cheap Price (35K) instead of IOM (46,500)

I guess people who used Q-Life would be able to talk about their medicals

But for me, based on my own experience,I will choose IOM anytime, any day

Based on my experience with QLife, I will choose them again and again. Unlike what people say about their services. They respond to email and booking very fast, their in-service is fast and professional, and they updated my account in 3days, even though I did my medical on a Saturday. And above all, they are cost effective.

My experience with IOM is not impressive, it took them one week to reply my email message for booking.

It’s a dicey situation. Some people have succeeded with their children while others haven’t. Personally I choose not to apply with my kids. I know of two families who did the same.
1. Scenario 1. Mum applies alone. Gets her visa and travelled. Once enrolled she applies for permits for her children and husband (study for the children, work for the husband.) The entire process took about three months.

2. Scenario 2. Entire family had existing Canadian visitors visa. Mum applies for study visa and the entire family travelled. Husband and children were given permits at the border.

I would believe Scenario 2 might work in your Favour. You can travel with the three kids who have U.S passports. Since they do not need a visa to get into Canada you can ask for a study permit for them at the border.

If you are too nervous about being turned away, just enter with them as if they are coming on vacation. Then you apply for permits for them from inside Canada. The process will certainly be shorter and more likely to succeed. Besides, children of parents who are on study visa are entitled to attend school (1st to 12th grades) without any papers other than your study permit.

@Faithyyyyy and all,

Please can you clarify something and point me to the full list of exemption criteria. If an international student with SP approval and TRV has a sibling who is permanent resident in Canada (whether within the same or in a different province than DLI), are we exempted from the travel restriction?

Thanks

You can't spend more than $100 per month for an international transaction using GTBank's Naira MasterCard.

Either get a Dollar MasterCard, use another bank's card (@ a ridiculous rate ~N455/usd) or ask someone abroad to pay for you if possible.
