pyzdan: @Dfodio, it is the school that gave me the option
Since the school gave you that choice. Then I guess it's fine to pick any of them. But if I was in your shoes. I would pick Regina. I won't want to be far from major activities since the main campus is situated there. Just an opinion brother. Good luck in your choice.

Ok, please I'm back with my weird questions again, but I need ur answers please smiley

Do the embassy call your previous employers?.... I'm kind of worried because I want to include my present employer as a past employer, and my dad's company as my current employer. If you understand what I mean undecided

Reason:
1) I'm not yet confirmed, therefore getting a reference letter and study leave letter from my present employer will be impossible.
2) I'm supposed to be sponsored by my dad's company, and I can easily get a reference letter from them.

Why am I bothered?
I'm scared that if they actually call previous employers, they may find out I that I still work with the organization.


WHAT DO YOU THINK?

cman4good: please, my sponsor is my uncle with different surname, are my to fill his family details in my family information form.
Secondly, are my print my family inform, Letter of Explanation and sign before uploading.....
please i need your urgent advise....


The family information form is meant for your immediate family members so you are not expected to fill your uncle info in it. I think your uncle is from your mother side, so u will need to get birth certificate of your mum and that of your uncle as part of your supporting document.
You are advise to fill your visa application (including the family information form) on a computer in order to minimize the likelihood of error.
If you are submitting online, you are not required to print and sign d documents except if you are submitting via paper route. Success in your application.

YES, you need a transit visa to pass through the US even if you will be seating in the airplane all through your layover.

Just keep off the US route if you don't have a US visa except you want to return to naija before you reach Canada

You can apply from any country, where you reside. No need to return to nauja before applying except you are just visiting that country and/or may need to leave your present country of residence before the processing time runs out

. I got mine when I got here. But I'll advice you to use Google map. Search for home stay around your skl. You'll see their number on the internet, call them and book. Tell them you coming so so date. So when you land, you just take a taxi to the place. Them no dey price taxi here. As e dey drive dey go, e go dey read for the screen. You go see for yourself. They have a map paper where all addresses and prices to drive to there. Safe trip in advance
