Hello people,,
Congrats to every that has concluded their landing formalities.
Quick one please: Can anyone recommend a good hotel in Calgary to spend 2/3nights that can offer free airport pickup too.
At least to help me with accommodation troubles before I conclude with any rental property.
Kindly advise.

cc. V-cole (queen of Calgary) and any other person familiar with Calgary and its environs.

Many thanks...

Use airbnb..it will save you money..and as for airport pick up, it may not be necessary as long as you have the airbnb or hotel address, cabs should be able to take you there. Cheers!

Thank you guys for your input. My wife and I are already adjusting to the realities of a possible denial. we are trusting in GOD and just wanted to give it our best shot. She started Speech therapy and Behavioural Therapy and She has improved a lot. As for trying other Countries, we are weighing all our options too

I pray for you from the depth of my heart that this road that presently seems long and hard will become short and easy for you as you are led to the best decision and destination to provide a wonderful life for your daughter in Jesus name.
@happytbaby nailed it...strongly consider the USA. Stay strong sir and i pray God strengthens you to help her achieve His purpose for her. Cheers.

I have been a silent reader for sometime now. I want to start the journey ASAP. For now, my only push back is the bank statement that will be presented which should show a minimum of 13k CAD. Please, I want to know if there is any financial institution or money lender that can deposit money into my account. An order could be put so that I wont have access to the money. Anyone with information about any company or individual that can do that. I will pay for the service.

..you shouldn't post things like this here...

HAs anyone here who has gotten PPR split the application and RPRF fee before? If you did, kindly share your experience and state at what stage you were notified to pay the RPRF. BG check has changed to NA and based on Canadavisa forums, the RPRF can be requested anytime before or during IP2...anyone here with experience should please lend a voice.

Honestly i cannoy remember...its been a while. But i think the account number is formed based on your information so its unique for every individual. I'm not sure i used any references. Sorry i cannot help more.

Hello house, kindly help me with some clarifications. I sent my result to WES for evaluation by courier and it was delivered on 17th January 2018, but WES didn't acknowledge receipt until 19th January 2018.

Even after acknowledging, they said they're working on the result. Up till now, they haven't shown any update let alone send the result back to my school for verification. I learnt that this stage is supposed to be for 2-3 days after which WES will contact my school to verify the result.

I need insights into what could have happened as this delay is confusing to me,help out.
Thanks for your help.

Relax...Its usually like that for most..they will update it soon. You need to get busy with other things on this journey for the wait (which is inevitable) could wear you out. At your leisure time, you can also reach WES via Facebook. Cheers!

Please what is the best way of paying for this IETLS exam. I was at GTB today to pay to do a transfer to Standard chartered as described in my confirmation email using my reference code but the bank says that the account number is wrong. And i used the 6 digits provided with my month code and last 2 digits of my passport as account number. Please i need to make this payment

I may not be able to help much. I paid for ours via transfer and had no issues. Had to calm down to read the instructions well, then followed them to the letter...if the bank said it was wrong, something must have gone wrong from your end. I used GTBank app for it. Try do it online. Cheers!

Hello @FrankNetter and other US based Bigerians. Pls I wanna ask, how do u guys send electronics and other stuff back to Nigeria at a cheap rate. I recently got to the US and want to send a tab home but Fedex and Dhl are cutthroat.

Thanks

You can pay as much as 20k sending a tablet not to talk of a laptop. However, we provide such services at much much cheaper rates for Nigerians in the USA along with our procurement service. Check the link in my signature.

Hi nairalanders, I urgently need advise on my transcript to wes. I was given my transcript sealed and stamped across the envelope last year November to send by myself to wes. I'd like to know which is preferable sending it from ogun state the location of my university or sending it from lagos where I reside via ems,ups or dhl. I want to know if this won't be questionable by wes that I am sending the transcript by myself instead of the school sending it directly. Your prompt response woukd highly by appreciated friends. Thanks.

This is a decision you will have to make as you are convinced. I've seen many folks say it must be from the same city while some have said it does not matter but i think i stand with what someone said about the document remaining sealed and meeting WES' requirements, you should be fine.

All I did this morning was print and fill out the form from WES, sent it as an email attachment to the Registry office in my former Uni, got response within 15mins, transcript has already been picked up by courier service and on its way to WES (the school emailed back to inform me).
I am sure all diffrent departmental contacts will be on the 'Contact us@ page of the school's website.
I am sure it is the same process for online Masters, after all na the same certificate classroom based people collect grin
Hope this is helpful?
Cheers

Same day! smh for Naija schools...

Guys please help o. Don't know why I can't log in to my profile to continue my application this morning. When I click on "my application" tab or eventually access the GCkey login fields on CiC site on my browser, it keeps telling me that login session has expired. I fully logged out yesterday before my system shut down. When I even get to type in my username and password, it tells me the same login expired ish. Who know what is happening please? I hope all info I entered yesterday is not lost? Thanks.

start from the fresh home page in a new tab. Mine did the same this morning and that was what i did.

Hello guys I have a concern, I am evaluating a MSC FROM Federal University of Agric Abeokuta.
The email address on my statement of results is for the PGSCHOOL. Please will WES forward my verification email to the PGSCHOOL email or THE REGISTRAR email?

Hi man. I thought you already resolved this. They will forward to the registrar's office not the PG school. The PG school can only send the trancsript out...confirmation and all that will be done by the registrar's office...to the best of my knowledge using Unibadan as the case study. If you can get to the registrar's office to make inquiries for first hand information, it would be best. Best of luck man.

Thanks so much for your response and I am a sister o grin. I was just overwhelmed with all the many pages grin. But I am on it already, I have now paid for WES verification and sent the form to my school so I am sure they will get on that once they resume this morning, glad I can use only the Masters as the stress of dealing with Nigerian Registry offices is better left to be imagined.


oh, apologies Sister Nat. You can't imagine how lucky you are with that foreign masters degree. I will not be surprised if your school sends transcript and verifies within this week. Wish you the best ma'am
