Apologies for posting off-topic. But what is the current issue with all the colleges in Ontario going on an academic strike?
It has been going on for quite a while. I know some of us are leaving Nigeria just to escape issues like this. Like oyinbo sef dey do like this?

Is there anyone here that can give firsthand experience on what it is like there? Let me know whether to ask for a tuition refund.

Lol, wanted to play it cool and casual like it was nothing and be like "TRV approved", but i know deep down this was really God. I'll update my documents shortly and for those still believing in your canadian dream, hold on to God tightly. It is well

Thanks a bunch,yes there is a way via scotibank but they do not have representative in Nigeria i believe. I am not in Nigeria tho, currently working right after uni (1 year and half) but i will be applying from Nigeria i.e online application because that's is where i have proof of my ties i.e my properties. Similar travel history as yours as well. I might be asking few other questions as time goes by if you really do not mind.

You're welcome, sure you can do that!

Ace2013:
Thanks for the response. So the estate surveyor stamped and stated the price right? What is the cost implication, the surveyor charged certain percentage? How about where there are multiple properties, same could be done for all right?

Additionally, which bank did u deposit your funds in in canada, is it scotibank? Is it advisable as well as i am my sponsor in this case?

It has the stamp and the estimated valuation on the survey. There might be additional costs apart from the surveyors fee, it depends on the location of the property, size, aesthetics etc. Yes, the same can be done for multiple properties.

No, my sponsors already have an account with BMO. If there's a way you can open an account with them from here and transfer the money then, that'll be great. Not sure about that though.

Ace2013:
Hey one quick question,

How did you get the property valuated to be worth 66M naira. Are there real estate valuators in Nigeria?

Hello,

Yes, I used an estate surveyor.
