silentone:
A family friend is about submitting their application, however, the husband has a child outside wedlock who lives with his mum and won’t be accompanying them. Also, my friend and her husband are yet to have a child. Should she select family of 2 (since it’s just her and her husband) or family of 3 to include her stepchild who doesn’t live with them and isn’t relocating with them as he is still underage and with his mum.

Would declaring funds and filling in family of 2 be deemed as misinterpretation?

What are the pros and cons

Family of 3 please. All children (biological or adopted) must be accounted for, if not, theyd be joking with misrepresentation ban.

Thanks

Persephone1:
[i]"Marry a typical Nigerian Man at your own peril"

When I type these words, it's not from a place of hate towards men ( I don't hate anybody) It is from careful analysis of marriages to Nigerian Men which mostly lack genuine love, empathy and kindness. Nigerian Marriages are mostly driven by "needs" and "means" to an end. Too systematic and unnatural and the one with the highest bargaining chip gets the most benefit.

Our mothers didn't teach us enough about Men. They didn't know either until they got married, unfortunately they are still learning about Men too. That is why the popular saying "Ile oko ile eko ni" (Your husband house is a school) is usually the soothing balm to unfavourable experiences a wife has with her husband. One question I always ask myself when I hear these words as parting words of advice for young wife is. Does that mean she is getting married into a strange,unknown and possibly unfavourable world? Why represent her husband as an unending course? And will she ever graduate and be relieved of painful lessons?. Ask these women these questions and they will shake their heads in mockery but the truth is, They weren't taught enough about the Men they are getting married to. How would they when they didn't know who they are either. To understand another person there must be a certain level of self awareness you have reached yourself. This way you have enough level of intelligence to be a perfect judge of character. But when a woman believe all she needs to be is a good cook and good konji reliever then all she will seek is a man who has Kitchen and bed.


Men are the worst in this joke of an institution. Configured to believe all they need to posses is Financial ability to provide. The upbringing of the typical Nigerian Man is very very wrong. Trained with little to no empathy,kindness, self care, sense of belonging, self love but burdened with sense of responsibility brought up like a robot to "provide" only. Most Nigerian men are robotic minded, unable to connect emotionally without aide yet this men are expected to naturally see their brides as a part of themselves. Wishful thinking if you ask me. And when some men luckily achieve this, the society (Men and Women) mock him. Aside this, they don't readily know what they want and are easily tossed by the society.

We create a society devoid of emotional engagement but want the benefits emotions birth. Compassion and affections brings liberty, a man who lacks these will see his wife as his slave and property, he gets to do with her what he seem best and not what is good for her. We really have a long way to go as a Society.

Nigerian Men make terrible horsebands

Baba, your account was created barely 15 minutes ago. I have a thing against new accounts with no activity on Nairaland.

You can follow the steps which are pretty straightforward. I will create a link where you can download some of the documents. For the payments, you can actually make them yourself without any proxy. You can also simply contact DHL for the courier.

Hi!
Have you been able to find a way to post your passport to Kenya?
I would Like to send mine there also.

To send your passport to Kenya, here are the steps I followed.


1. Passport request letter
2. 2x Photo Passport
3. International passport
4. CVAC form
5. Receipt of transmission fee payment.
6. DHL Return label
7. Eye and height chart
8.(optional) two photocopies of passport data page with email address and phone number.


You need the 7 documents above

Step 1: print out PPR letter, consent form (CVAC) and eye & height chart.

Step 2: make a passport according to the specifications (it’s on your PPR letter, also try to look fresh, I heard that picture will be used everywhere for a long time)

Step 3: Pay and get Kenya VFS transmission receipt. (It costs 32k now, but dollar rate might say otherwise). You can reach out for the contact i used, as I cannot just put the contact here.

Step 4: Have a DHL 'to and return' waybill documents (it costs 78k normally, it might cost more currently). You can reach out for the contact i used as well.

Step 5: put all documents asides the DHL Lagos-Nairobi waybill inside an envelope

Step 6: go submit the documents at any official DHL office close to you. ( they’ll ask for the DHL waybill document (Lagos-Kenya)

Step 7: buy coke and 3 puff puff, you deserve to spoil yourself.

You can get away with a lot of things in this country. One of the reasons I love Nigeria so much. Just have money and some influence.

Kenya should have been your best bet not Accra. Redo Medicals and start contacting IRCC back to back. People who use Lagos vfs are those who aren’t in a hurry or have deadlines to meet.


Even one isn't in a hurry, the length of time Lagos VFS take is unsettling, up to 8 weeks!

I sent my passport to Kenya on Wednesday 11th last week and it is already on its way back.

I blame it on lack of information.
