Bayo Onanuga should shut up his dirty mouth ! Is he knowledgeable than the US appeal court that threw away Nigeria's submission as trashhuh Federal and State governments in Nigeria are used to breaking contractual agreements, even when Nigerians approach our corrupt courts, the corrupt judges deliver judgement in favour of the FG and SG....That's not the case with the international community... Instead of them to approach the Chinese and settle issues amicably, he is opening his sewage mouth blabbing..... We no reach China anywhere oh
He thinks he is talking to his children or Peter Obi.

Does Ontario PNP not accept anything less than a Bsc. for nurses? My wife has a diploma and post basic diploma certificate that was evaluated as two or more certificates by IQAS. I would like to know if it’s safe to go ahead with accepting their NOI?
Ontario needs Canadian B.Sc equivalency most of the time. I don't know if there is an exception for healthcare folks. Send them a mail or/and go through their website.

When you come first
Each career choice has its skills certifications
Some just require you to have GED which is actually easier than WAEC.

So for example Trade skills have certifications, e.g electrical work, welding, plumbing , general labor etc. These have different certs and some have apprenticeships. Occupational health and Safety certs.
Health sector has different career choices , you can be a medical biller, a nurse assistant, home health aide many of these don't need a university degree.

Hospitality sector , etc

So if you have a sector you're interested in them you can look at the certifications in that area and you can get them to move up in the that sector.
Community colleges give different certificates, some certifications come from the training body so it may be online.
What about mechanic?

Listen carefully ur turn to get interview letter depends on ur documentary qualify date, if ur priority date is current u are only qualify to received 60 days letter from NVC until NVC reach ur documentary qualify date u are not entitle to received IL. NVC Schedule IL base on documentary date Not priority date since 2020 convids-19,der is a lot of backlog for every cases. for example my priority date became current August 2021 last month i received my IL 3 Years of waiting, ur own might not up to that just sample. Dont prepare yet oooo wait till NVC send u IL u will still have enough time to do ur preparation .
Wrong quoting. By the way, my friend and his sis never got the 60-day email post currency but their other two siblings did. The former got ILs straight up and that was a surprise.

You have to check the DMV site specific to Texas.. Each date has its own regulations. I doubt you need driving transcripts sha, just your FRSC license is enough

They would usually have a section on that site with regards to using a foreign driver's license and for how long. Eventually you would still need a state license.

A car is a necessity in Texas, I do not believe they have trains , and considering the land mass of Texas is just slightly smaller than Nigeria then driving is a necessity.
This is so cool. I'll let him know and his bro is there too.

Congrats to everyone who has gone through interview process.

Lots to do and think about right now.
Air tickets
USA is really large, treat every state like a country. One person's experience in Minnesota is different from another's experience in Alabama.
I know it's expensive but do try to get flights as close to your final destination as possible. It might be tempting to do some journeys by coach(luxurious bus) but if you have a lot of luggage then it's not a good option. Coach station maybe a long distance from airport.

Soft landing
It's okay to do soft landing..arrive in the US and stay for 2/3 months and come back. It might give you time to regroup, understand what you will face and how better to prepare for your new country. Just make sure you return within 6 months.

Transcripts and Certificates
Please take your original academic certificates with you. Reach out to your universities to get your student copy of your transcript.
There are jobs that will require your to have your foreign certificates evaluated and although they may need your institution to send it directly to them, they will also require your original certificates so bring them with you.

No academic records? No problem
No worries, USA is a country of certification. Lots of jobs require us based certification to qualify so you have plenty opportunities to learn something new and earn income.
Take advantage of learning opportunities around you.
USA has a lot of job specialisation..what one person would do in Nigeria is split into what 5 people would do abroad.

Living with your host
Lowe your expectations, it's a different country a different culture. Paying all bills on a monthly basis put pressure on people no matter how much you think you know them. Be grateful for whatever they offer and quickly find ways to sustain yourself and contribute to household chores and expenses even if it's a little, always contribute regularly. If all you can afford is buying the type of bread the family eats then make sure that's what you buy regularly.
Lastly
SSN and Credit cards
Don't get carried away by credit cards, research online how to use them to you financial benefit. Don't just listen to what people tell you about using CC
Guard your SSN, it's not uncommon that even some hosts will use your SSN to claim tax returns, sell to those will use same to give those who can't work those details to find work, or use them to apply for CC with your details.
Asides from opening an bank account I don't think there's anyone else who needs your SSN.
When in doubt ask whoever it why they need it and if you're not satisfied just go online and see what you get.

Shine your eye..there are many scammers in the US.
text scams , phone call scams etc

All the best in your new life
Nice input! What do you know or say about folks from Nigeria, moving to Texas with respect to driving? They have been driving for years in Nigeria. What applies? I know in Canada, Ontario may allow you to challenge G or G2. Getting believable extract from Nigerian embassy, Ottawa may waive some wait time to challenge the G. I don't even know what is obtainable in other provinces. Everyone does G1, though.

thegagoman:
The media will do everything before the election to make Kamala look like she's going to win.

Just like in the case of Tinubu vs Obi, the Obi supporters won online and BAT won on poll. I see the same thing happening in America. The MAGA fans are afraid to talk. They are being bullied online.

PS:
I only used Obi vs Tinubu as example, I don't give a flying fvck about the two of them.
BAT won on polls and you're protesting on the streets.

Lordcrixus:
I think this is how you calculate the CSPA age, the number of years it took USCIS to approve the petition is the pending time. That is, how long is it from filing date to approval date. Therefore, the age of the child at visa availability minus the pending time will be the CSPA age (this value must be less than 21 years). This is why it is better a petition takes a longer time to be approved. And the child must remain single, until he/she gets to the US.
There should be an APP for this.

Thank you for this platform. My case is F3 priority date 22/4/2010. Became Documentarily qualified July 2024.
How long do I still need to wait for interview and are there any backlogs at Nigerian embassy presently since that my affect my interview date if my case becomes current anytime.
Wait for your PD to be current. They are currently at 01 Apr 10. After that, embassy will deal with NVC and select the batch to be called for interviews (depends on Lagos embassy's capacity and your DQ). Overall, the bulletin may start moving from October. There has been no movement since last July in most family-based categories. Finally, after you become current, you wait for like a month (my friend's experience) and you are scheduled for the interview (interview letter sent to you). You may start getting your passports valid and ready, attestation to births, police character reports etc.
