Hello everyone, is there any family out there in Burnaby/Vancouver? My teenage daughter is looking for other Nigerian teens that she can connect with as she's there alone. Any suggestions?

Good day all

I have a pending PR application. VO is Accra but I've moved to the UK now and sent a webform and email to update my contact info but no response since September.
By the time they eventually change my contact information, will my file be moved to another VO? Perhaps London VO
Thank you in advance for your input

Dollywood:


What do you do about the long dark winter that keeps everyone isolated?

Greetings!
Trust this meets you well.
Thank you for all the great information you selflessly disseminate here.

Please, I'll be coming to BC in a month on a student visa What I would like is a list of all the things I need to have in place before leaving Lagos e.g. driver's license, etc. All that will make my settlement in Canada a breeze.

I look forward to your response.

Thank you.

This is my first winter - and it is truly depressing . 4:30 p.m and it is already dark! Na wah.

Luckymama:


Hi biko please let's connect . Whereabouts in BC are you coming to?
All you need is your valid drivers license. You don't need the FRSC letter or international drivers license. When you come depending on your length of driving time will determine what level of drivers license you get. you will still have to write a driving test and do the driver's test. If you can get a letter from your insurance about how long you have driven without incidence that will help reduce your car insurance costs.

Besides as a student you can drive with your valid Nigerian drivers license until the end of your program.

adexyone:
she should look for any RCCG around her and join the teenage church. I believe their should be one not too far from her. That's a good start. Except you guys are not Christians. If she's an international student. I want to believe their should be other Nigerians in her school. Let her join the international students group. Even if they are not Nigerians she can connect with other international students.

YinksXO:

Thank you but we are Muslims, she's in high school and unfortunately her school doesn't have any Nigerian there and other int'l kids have their own group. I know she'll sort it out but just wanted to help as mother hen concern.

Hello everyone.
I want to say thank you to all the contributors on this page even though sometimes it's as if it's derailed. I have enjoyed reading from part 1 to this part. I have gotten so much information from mechanic to hairdresser to when to change your tyres and where to get a lot of things . Been reading since last Yr and it's been worthwhile. I've actually been waiting for some wonderful landing gists but so far it's as if no one has travelled recently or all the people getting ppr recently on other forums are not on nairaland.
Ok house pls I need some clarifications on my questions.
Has anyone landed in a different province for like a day or 2 before proceeding to another province for their 14 days quarantine.
I intend landing in January by God's grace with 2 teenagers and 2 under 10. I know the teenagers need to quarantine for 14 days since they aren't vaccinated. Now my concern is that I want to land in BC for like a day or 2 just to see my investor and pick up some few documents but I would love to settle in calgary. Will it be OK to put calgary address as their quarantine address even if I stay 2 days in a hotel in bc before moving to calgary or will that amount to violating any law. I wouldn't mind them staying the 14days in vancouver honestly, but we would be using their quarantine period to sort accommodation in calgary and getting school for them.

My second question is if we are still required to get the FRSC extract for drivers license in calgary. Not sure if this is what they call it. I still have other questions though will ask them later. Thank you.

You don't need frsc extract for Alberta

capsule:

I was asked for an extract late 2019 when I landed, I don't know if is still a requirement currently.
