The milk here is usually liquid. But u can buy powdered milk from african stores but they're usually expensive. Like x3-x4 normal naija price

Landing Gist.
LANDING GIST
LAGOS - FRANKFURT - Toronto - Windsor
Airline - Lufthansa / Air Canada
Date - August 29th 2022.
Time - 11pm.

I arrived Lagos airport around 5PM. Went to join queue to weigh baggage, got to my turn and my bags were overweight. Lagos airport was extremely hot. Thank God I came with extra bag. So I had to rearrange cause they were items I couldn't leave behind. Lufthansa charges 80k to upgrade to 32KG but I decided to pay 132k for extra 23KG bag.
This is because initially I had tried to find a way to cargo the items but I think the price I got was at 5k/KG so I kuku left it. Joined queue again to reweigh again and this time I begged the lady and she allowed me sta there and counter balance( Lufthansa has a rule, you weigh, go and rebalance and join queue.) I couldn't join queue for a third time so I begged her. Done with weighing then I paid those guys to wrap my bag. Cost 1k/ bag. Proceeded to get my boarding pass.Thereafter I went outside the airport to spend some time with family and friends cause they were strict. Only my mum and sister were able to get in.
Went back inside around 9PM and they had already started boarding. Boarded and flight left Naija For Frankfurt  around 11:10. Food was good. Pasta and salad. They also shared fruit salad later on.
Arrived Frankfurt at 6:20. FrankFurt Time. Had a layover of 3 hours. Frankfurt airport is beautiful.
Next Air Canada delayed our flight for an hour.
Boarded around 11:15 AM. And another long journey started to Toronto. Aircanada had movies. Food served mashed potatoes and chicken. They had pasta as well. Later on they also shared chicken pie. And also shared headphones to all passengers. We arrived Toronto At 1:18PM toronto time. Those with connecting flights were given priority while getting off the airplane. Got off and went to immigration. We were told to sit then a lady took us in 60s to another place where you do self declaration. Only our letters of introduction were collected. And they started giving us permit. Rushed to my gate for the next flight to windsor. That one was delayed too for another 1 hour. But we sha moved.
Arrived Windsor went to baggage claim to get my bags. My bags weren't checked at all. Still wrapped the way they were from Lagos.
Well that's just about it. Wishing everyone success in their journeys and applications. God be with everyone.

A friend just got his PPR to resume in September 2022, next month.

But the thing is that he wants to defer to save cost by going to another DLI which is about 50% cheaper in January 2023.

The tuition fee of the current DLI is 22,000 CAD but he has got admission to another DLI with just 11,500 tuition fee.

Is this possible? If yes, how can he handle it without having any problem later.
He has to submit a new study visa application if he changes DLI

I dont even understand this IRCC people. I got a Request letter on my portal yesterday asking me to upload my official work permit receipt when I didn't apply for a work permit. What I applied for is a study permit, I also indicated that my study has a co-op (last time I checked applicants don't pay for co-op work permit). I also applied alone. So where could this be coming from??
Since your program has co-op you ought to have applied for co-op work permit along with your study visa application.
So now they want you to apply for the co-op work permit separately and send them payment proof of the application fee.

Hi Good morning my fellow nairalanders. Please do I need a transit visa if I fly via Lufthansa air line to canada. I saw it now at a cheaper rate but would love to confirm if I need a transit visa as they will be going through frankfurt.
I need a response please!!?
Be careful. After frankfurt is the next flight going direct to Canada? If there is another stop over before canada then you need a transit visa.
And Yes you can transfer the naira equivalent you saw to their account.

Based on ArriveCan, Any of the following test results are valid for entry to Canada, if you have been vaccinated.

Negative rapid antigen test (RAT) result on a sample taken from a laboratory, healthcare entity, or telehealth service no earlier than the day before the scheduled departure, or

Negative molecular (e.g. PCR, NAATs, RT-LAMP) COVID-19 test result on a sample taken no more than 72 hours prior to departure, or

Positive molecular (e.g. PCR, NAATs, RT-LAMP) COVID-19 test result on a sample taken between 10 and 180 days prior to departure

If you do not have proof, you may be subject to a fine or denied entry to Canada. Certain exceptions apply
This is false pls. Fully vaccinated do not require any of the above.

Good morning Everyone,

I was refused 2months ago and I applied for GCMS Notes, it is stated that bank statements not provided was due to my refusal in the note as shown in the notes.
Please gurus in the house kindly advise on the next steps
You submitted an application without adding bank statement?

YES
Then the mistake you made is not showing proof you own the company. Thus IRCC made the assumption that you're not the owner and that a third party company, your employer, is sponsoring you.

What you should have done is attach bank statement of the company account, the CAC certificate, the CAC sole proprietorship registration page(which shows you're the owner), a bank reference letter confirming you own the funds in the account.

HELLO all,

Pls is it possible for one to change their school from one province to another when one gets to Canada?

Do I need to notify IRCC I am changing school to new province
You need to have enrolled for classes in the previous school which could also mean completing 1 term before changing school.

Hi Guys, please need your help URGENTLY. I'm a prospective September student of CONESTOGA COLLEGE. I have applied for form A to pay my tuition since June 8 and still no dollar.

Kindly advise on the alternative way I can pay

Does the school have an account detail that someone in Canada can.pay directly into?

Is there any Conestoga alumni that can advise or someone that has a solution.

Thanks.
You can do wire transfer from Nigeria.
Buy black market dollars and deposit into a Nigerian Domiciliary account. Then initiate foreign funds transfer in the bank with same bank details you submitted for Form A.
If I may, which bank did you process form A with?

hi, thank you so much. so how do i go about it
You can only buy dollars at black market rate. Deposit it into a dollar account owned by you. Then do foreign funds transfer. But I don't think it's worth it because it will cost you 2.45m plus in difference
(Black market - Form A) which can even be added to POF.

oh i really don't know, but it definitely has to be from 10,000CAD and i believe it's only CIBC that does for nigerian students.
And I am using form A to execute mine, but you could ask the gurus on here.
You can't use Form A for GIC. No bank will process it.

If you don't have USA transit Visa, you have no business landing in USA. Avoid stopovers in USA.
Hope you haven't booked?

If you go the legal way, you may wait up to 5 months.
But naija way, 1-2weeks. Or 1 month. Depending on your money.

Hi everyone, my issue is that in 2021, I was denied a south African visa, their reason, Documents and bank statements lacks credibility. Now, I want to apply to the UK for a student visa. But I'm not sure if I should include the previous visual refusal since it's not UK, Canada or US. I feel if I include it, they might want to investigate further and this might reduce my chance of getting a refusal. Has anyone done this before
Failure to declare past refusal leads to 10 year Ban

Good afternoon everyone. Please I've got a question when I was filling the Application online. I didn't see a slot where I could upload my police character certificate for my study permit application. So is it no longer needed? Or I would have to submit it when I go for biometrics? Cause I heard I would also summit some of my other documents when I go for biometrics.
Police report is not necessary. There's no need for it. You can add it to your SOP sha.
