ChriGo: ......I know u never meant to embarass him...all i felt was his question wasnt based of the amount but the currency....i was once confused too if one is to change naira to canadian dollars but learnt on this forum that its US dollars......i av really learnt and gathered so much experience type info on this forum from u and sum oda great peeps....tanx....

Siga: ....They both are good banks with International Student plans .... If u dont mind... ask both banks what they have to offer an International student.... the monthly charges if any and compare.... but I go advise CIBC

Fhemmmy:

I am Galally happy oh

GboyegaD:

He was over stressing the issue. He's been advised not to take more than 10k and he is asking which of them? Wetin dem dey spend for Canada? Isn't that the country he is coming? Besides, life has been made so easy with the option of the naira mastercard which means you can spend your naira from anywhere so why the worries. Anyways, it wasn't meant to embarrass him.

@ SIGA, i nor forget u ooo.ur head they there.

ChriGo: Bro...concordia language of teaching is English....so u can go with it...buh d waterloo 1yr masters program is also good...canada gives preference to those going for masters course than those going for a postgraduate diploma course...in terms of work permit and Permanent resident...so i would rather prefer the waterloo to concordia......bro still hopeful on my trv oo

Wow, so CDHC never answer you? God will do it.

Yes, I saw that on the website. My problem is: how do I relate with the folks out there (they speak English but they are more at ease with French speaking foreigners)?

The Concordia course is an Msc, too. I'm just trying to weigh something: what's the advantage of an Msc of 2 years over that of a year?

1stcindy: Please who has ever tried sending an email to CDHC since thursday. Since yesterday, if my friend try sending email to CDHC the email wouldnt go through and the reason given is "Remote host said: 550 5.7.1 Error: Rejected [BODY]"
Looks like CDHC has blocked their email address

dommakavelli:
Thank you so much bro. I really appreciate your supports. May the Lord continue to bless you. see you soon in canny

efewhoa: @Sir siga, Which of these banks would you advice me to open an account with TD canada trust or Canadian Imperial Bank of commerce. They are the two closest banks to my uni.

iwinosajack :


Amen. Wish u d same bro. Make hast to land canny, once sch resume classes get full fast & catching up isn't easy! Wish u a safe trip

dommakavelli:

Thanks bro.
What do you think about using my GTB card over there. is the exchange rate ok

dommakavelli: Hello Family,
Please I need a college for Public relations or any law related courses with may start date for my sister.

ChriGo: Bros...humber college offers a cource in public relations and its a post graduate diploma but the problem be say na just two semesters which is 1yr......but dis 1yr courses dey get repacaution wen it cums to work permit issuance.....please check this link m.humber.ca/program/public-relations-postgraduate ...this is another link for cenntinal college www.centennialcollege.ca/Programs/ProgramOverview.aspx?Program=6417 but dis one too na 1yr duration....but the best bet is to go for a 2yrs course to avoid work permit yawa!!....but the way out is if ur sister take up the 1yr course after completion she should not apply for work permit yet but take up another 6months or 8months course...by doing that she has breach d gap of 1yr and wen she applies for a work permit she would be given a 3yrs work permit gbam!!....please note that work permit can only be issued once oo...if after that 1yr course ur sister go apply for work permit and dem give her penre!! Den na going gone for postgraduate work permit for life be dat oo...so dats why peeps kuku go for two years course straight up to get 3yrs pgwp just like ur boy chriGo is doing.....

ChriGo: Mehn!! I tot Cdhc said they are working on may 23 /24 application...cdhc bobolization..na wa oo...onye oma,Huzzie dey are almost close to u ogas oo....Good news cooking...

thewayz: Thank you so much my brother and believe I was not segregating by asking for help from those who have their TRV already but anyways its all good and I guess I understand better now. I dont plan to go the school way. I work and my company can sponsor me so I just want to go with a holiday/tourist visa. How best can I do this? Thank you....

dommakavelli:

@Chrigo...my prog last for 4semester(1yr 4months), what do you think about that?

ChriGo: ...I say amen to that my brother.....1) the difference between the 1yr and 2yrs is simply the issuance of work permit....with 1yr course u only get to have an 1yr work permit but wit 2yrs course u get 3yrs work permit....2) but like i said wit a masters degree ur PR cums faster.....3)like in ontario province with a masters degree u do not need to have a job offer before dem nominate u for provincial nominee program.....u can just apply straight up and get ur Permanent resident permit....i dont know about the package in the province u'r heading to but like i said earlier canada gives preference to individuals with masters/Phd degree....you can go for the 1yr course...4) but bros are they not going to give u funding ? .....do some little research about the province u'r going to if it favours u or not......

Amen, bro. Did you defer your admission to Winter?

1) From what I've read from you and others, 3 years work permit is advisable if someone wants to get PR, right? If so, then the 1 year Msc isn't advisable, except if I finish the first, I'll go for another Msc in another province. This is what I'd like to do if I don't get to see a 2 year Msc that appeals to me.

So, is it possible to run another Msc in another province after the first Msc and would it count as 2 years Msc in order to guarantee 3 years work permit? (I want to experience 2 provinces, culture, et al. before I settle down to work).

2) I understand that.

3) Do you mean that in Ontario, after any Msc, be it 1 year or 2 years, an international student will be given a PR or do you still need the work permit?

Concordia is in Quebec; Waterloo is in Ontario. I prefer Vancouver but their business courses are mostly MBA (I need work experience of 3-5 years; I have hustle experience of 4 years but I don't know if that would count because the street gave me no certificate). Those that aren't MBA can't fit into what I have passion for.

4) If by funding, you mean scholarship, in Concordia, they give funding between $3,000 - $10,000 (for those with 2'1 and above).

Thanks for your response so far.[/b]

iwinosajack :



I think CIBC is better. TD will charge u if u do more than 25 transactions within a month (cash withdrawal & POS payment). But nothing wrong if u visit d two to check which is better for u as prof SIGA said

iwinosajack :


I don't really know hw it works. D only time I tried it, GTB deducted #5000 from my a/c wen I bought goods worth $35 CAD here (POS). But if u withdraw cash frm ATM here wit ur GTB MasterCard , na anoda story ooh!, GTB go charge u #1000 extra back home why dey wil charge u $2 extra here. I think ogas dem SIGA & fhemmmy et al are in a better position to advise u
