You must do your biometric within 28 days

mirenda:


When you submit your application and you are called for biometrics, within how many days must the biometric be done?

TheBae:
No I don't but Diamond commission is about N250
But they both have about the best exchange rates right now, especially Stanbic.

Thank you @TheBae.

Sorry for my plenty questions, but how much is the exchange rate from the Canadian Dollar to the Naira via the ATM through Diamond Bank.

That information is vital in drafting a detailed financial plan.

Gu2015:
Try Diamond,fidelity,Stanbic Ibtc and standard chatered.

Thanks.

TheBae:
Stanbic
Diamond

Thanks, please do you have an idea of how much the exchange rate plus commission is via the ATM in Calgary with the above mentioned banks??

Please what bank(s) in Nigeria gives the best exchange rate, I intend to use my Naira-based ATM card when I get to Calgary.

Amsterdam/Frankfurt--Transit Visa not required.

Many thanks.

Hello,

Would one require an airport transit visa while travelling to Canada - in case there are stopovers in maybe Amsterdam/Frankfurt, depending on the airline.

Although I'm yet to get my trv, but from my experience with other embassies, it is not unusual for the embassy to first contact you. You got that mail because your visa has been granted. Your documents is still with them, but soon would be sent to VFS, it is after then, that vfs will contact you to come for your documents......if I were you, I would start making preparations for flight and accommodation. But you can still ask the elders who have gotten their TRVs sha.....

To the Elders in the House(that have gotten their TRV), did you get a notification of visa approval prior to receiving your TRV?

ayooluwatoni:


Are you kidding me?? Look at this man?? You dont knw what it means when they say something has been approved? I'm sure you do......you've just been tooo scared that you don't believe it is true.
CONGRATULATIONS OGA!!!

The mail says
To facilitate your arrival in Canada,inform the officer of the reason for your visit (study or work)and present this letter with your passport.

Why I am confused here is that my passport is with them in Ghana as I submitted via the Paper route, so I wonder why they are giving me this STORY.

So therefore, I am asking has anyone got this similar mail prior to the passport being dispatched and visa issued

Hi All,

I applied via the paper route 04 June.
Medical Invite 09 July.
Medical Assessment 11 July.

Now 24 July, I just received a mail from Ghana that my Application to study or work has been approved.
(I am not sure of what that means).

My tracking message still shows being processed in Ghana, and I haven't received any message from VFS.

Please what could that mean fellaz.

dharmmie04:

Hello NLDers,

I want to do my medical examination in Lagos, I applied via the paper route and my Int'l Passport is with the Embassy. I contacted one of the Panel Physicians so as to book a medical appointment but they asked for my Int'l Passport, I told them I am not with it, then I was told to get a scanned and stamped copy from the embassy as part of the requirements for the Med. Examination.

Please, I want to know if any one here has a knowledge of this situation and how to I go about it

Please, it's urgent, Thanks.
