I presume you are asking concerning the FRSC letter. However, I don't know anything about the cost. But all I can tell is it took 4 days to get delivered from ABJ via DHL. Regards Lalaska: |

Hi Adeza, Congrats on your bundle of joy Please what was the process of applying for child benefits? I thought one is only eligible after filing tax returns. Did you file tax returns immediately you landed. I'll appreciate if you can give a little more detail on this. Thanks. adeza: |

Hi Rocorleone, How long does it take to get the international driver's licence in Nigeria. I renewed my Nigerian driver's licence since June and up till now its not ready, so I'm thinking of getting the intl licence if it is processed faster. Rocorleone: 1 Like 1 Share |

jyteman: Well, the first thing you have proved is that you have a working resume which got you this recruitment opportunity. The downside to your situation is that you don't have a PR visa yet. This situation is similar to what my relative passed through who got his PR visa and then began to apply for jobs while in Nigeria. He put my wife's Canadian phone number on his resume and when my wife received the call for phone interview, she responded and told them he was out but would call back. She sent him the number and he called back from Nigeria, passed his phone interview and got a date for his face to face interview. He then bought his ticket and landed in Canada on the day of his interview. Came to my house, changed his clothes, got a taxi straight to the interview and passed it! He got a job the day he landed and started work the following week. In your case, there's no phone interview, straight to in-person, hands-on skills assessment and if you perform well, you get face to face. Since you have no way of knowing when you will get PR, they will not keep the role for you indefinitely but proceed to the next person available for the job. At least, you have assurance now that you have a good resume. So you may consider sending a polite response that you are unable to currently pursue the opportunity but are thankful for the consideration given to you. This is a great way to keep the door open and for them to remember you as a thoughtful, considerate person. It's possible they will keep your resume in their database for future opportunities. More opportunities will come your way, all the best ahead. 56 Likes 11 Shares |

Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant by SlowlybtSurely: 10:55am On Nov 24, 2017 |
DatechMan: Why are you not getting rooms on kijiji? Landlord's employment/credit history requirement? Use a USD dominated card. |

I was passing through Nathan Philips Square in Toronto this morning and noticed preparations for the annual Cavalcade of Lights festival. The Cavalcade of Lights is an annual holiday tradition featuring the lighting of Toronto’s official Christmas Tree, live musical performances, a spectacular fireworks show and skating parties on the iconic outdoor rink. All free! If you're in the Toronto area, you might want to be there. https://www.toronto.ca/explore-enjoy/festivals-events/cavalcade-of-lights/ 8 Likes

MysteryBud:I am sure the Express Entry thread is better place to get the answer you need. I used Statement of result for my WES ECA and even also my e-APR. I don't even have my certificate yet and I am on my way to Canada already. Employers don't normally require ECA for your certificates. ECA are mostly required for Professional bodies registration such as APEGA etc. This may be unavoidable if you fall into a regulated profession. 4 Likes |
