Thanks brother.

We also received immunization records each on a single sheet of A4 paper(apart from the one in sealed envelope for embassy)from the doctor who conducted our medical tests for us at Ikoyi, Lagos.
The doctor told me its for Point of Entry. It was not asked for at our POE (New York JFK). We have the records with us.
I hope this does not matter much as to affect our records.

To anyone who knows about New Jersey, kindly let me know the best part of New Jersey to stay with kids.
We are presently in Newark, but its all blacks (not being racist here pls) and we'll like to live where its at least missed race.

Thanks

Greetings to you all and compliment of the season.
I'm yet to be interviewed but while I wait, I decided to keep my brain a bit busy by reading Drivers' Manual. I'm reading for the State of Connecticut and I came across something that got me confusing. I quote;
" Applicants who successfully complete driver education through a commercial driving school school MUST wait 120 days after issuance of the learner's permit before taking the road test".
Please can someone shed more light on this because I can't seem to understand it. Does it mean one will have toi stay for 120 day aftr d issuance of learners permit before taking the road test?

the interpretation be say;if you pass through driving school,and you passed the computer base driver's test, you have to wait for almost 4 months before you can go for the real practical driving test.

@akaniman:
Yes, it doesn't matter who made the payment. All you need is the confirmation or reservation number, otherwise known as the PNR and your travel documents.
Good luck.

My broda, qatar airline is not interswitch or wateva their use over there that will verify the account or payment. If her account has not being debited, she can still re-book the ticket. @MMIA, they don't verify ticket payment bought online. The only thing if ur name is in the system then u are go to go. So ask her if her account has being debited and once she book the ticket again. All she need to do is either she send d copy to ur mail or she sends u the booking reference as called PNR number.
