20,000 for 40 hours work = N500 per hour. That's too much now. Why not increase the hours to 200 or reduce the pay to N4,000 ? So that it'll be N100 per hour.

Good evening all. Please, I want to know, what category of applicants are asked to go for IELTS? Or is it for everyone?

The question is, what kind of gun? If it's not automatic (which he doesn't have the power to approve), he's wasting his time. You can't confront an AK with pump action or double barrel. It's suicide.

The ‘final’ and not sole aim of a study permit for most people is to get PR, AFTER they’ve studied and gotten their qualifications. It’s a process.

However, I heard recently that some people actually use the study visa path to immigrate without actually studying. They get their visas, get to Canada and abandon their school and program! I was shocked.

No wonder VOs sometimes write in GCMS and refusal notes that they have concerns about an applicant being a bonafide student.

That's Nigerians for you. We're some of the most selfish humans on earth. As long as we're good, it doesn't matter how our actions affect others.

SweetJJ:
From my little knowledge, you have to show consistency and progression. Either academic progression or work progression. And you have to explain the switch very well in your SOP.

Kindly note that I am an applicant too, and o don't know much. But this is my opinion.

You're partly correct, but the most important factor is the person reviewing your application. If you like write the most compelling SOP ever, if the VO is the strict type or in a bad mood, he'll find an excuse to refuse your permit.

Hello Businesstools,

This is not a concern in whatever way to IRCC. You are at liberty here to make that decision base on your ability to take the risk and to absorb the shocker that comes with it.

If the issue of trust is something of question following the release of the details to a third party to have access to your sensitive information, do have a rethink.

Best of Luck

Thanks for your response. It's well appreciated.

Anon123:


No...

But hope the third party is trusted o!!!!!!!!!!!!

I trust him even more than myself.

Happy Sunday, Friends. Sorry to bother you with another question.

Will the IRCC find out if I share my login details with a third party to access my account? If yes, what are the penalties?

Thanks in anticipation.

Use another browser.

I just did and it worked. Thanks.

Good evening, guys.

Has anyone been able to access the IRCC website today? I don't know what is happening. It keeps taking me around.

"DISRUPTIVE" Could mean disruptive tech. Meaning your product is innovative, that it could affect the existence of other products within same industry.

WRONG! It actually means that the candidate has sound business knowledge, at least in the TEF context.

@ paddyDIGITAL: Thank you so much for all your comment. It was really helpful. After loading N2,000, I tried again, and the same error message, so I went to the bank and it was confirmed to me that it was local high. The mistake was from the lady that processed it. They apologized and asked me to return on Tuesday to apply for another card.

Thank you very much, God bless you.

lekki1444:
wow its amazing what you are doing. i just went on the website you posted. now see that is the kind of brain power that can thrive in the world of creating concepts out of thin air. with this kind of mind you have its only a matter of time before you blow. but you have to admit that many cant even begin to think the way you think. i mean its 2021 and i still see people chasing cars trying to sell their wares in traffic. everyone is endowed with different brain power level. it is what it is. but i love what you are doing. you will definitely succeed

Amen at the bold. Thanks a million.

paddyDIGITAL:

About N1750 to activate the card, and about N950 to link to PayPal account.

The card has been activated, and about that amount deducted. I had more than 2K there it failed to link, but it's N500 now. I'll add some money again and try it. Thank you.

lekki1444:
i like where you are coming from with this. so basically what you are touting here is an IT skilled business or something thats computer based like the flutterwave guys ? the problem with that kind of business is that not many have that kind of brainpower to do it. most people are looking for what to buy and sell or what to make and sell or what service to offer for money. it would be nice to have the brainpower to create a nigerian paypal though

I've updated my post (The one you quoted). Of course, the brainpower has a role here, I am not even referring to the execution part of it, but the conception. All one needs to do is, identify a problem that people are willing to pay for and conceptualize an idea that can solve it. You don't need to be tech savvy. Just know what you want and someone will develop it for you (Of course you'll pay). Take a look at this project I am working on (www.vapatrick.com). I have no idea how to build a site with these functionalities, but I got developers on Nairaland and Fiverr to implement it. It's about 60% complete now. Once all is set, and dollars can be received directly, all I need to do is, advertise for VAs (people to do the job) and clients. Nothing more, nothing less and the money will start rolling in.

lekki1444:
in nigeria today 3 million is how much some people give their oloshos. my fren to formulate a solid business that will not fail you need 10 million naira. remember dollars is 1 to 500. and i dont consider crypto currency as investment. its a glorified ponzi scheme

Wrong! With less than 1M one can start a very successful business. It all depends on the idea and the cost of execution. For most brick and mortar businesses, 3M may not be enough. That may not be the case for a 100% internet based business that doesn't require a physical office or any equipment safe for a laptop. A typical example is a bookkeeping business (Though not popular in Nigeria, one can offer his services remotely as bookkeeper to businesses in UK, US and other developed countries and earn in dollars).

The problem with most Nigerians is that we do not think. Ask them what their idea is about and you'll be surprised to hear that they wants to start a barbing salon, car wash business or one copycat business like that. How will this business be different from others in the industry? Why will customers patronize him instead of others? They have no cogent answer to these and other questions that business success rely on. That is the reality of most Nigerians. That is why you'll see graduates learning baking, fashion design and pedicure, because they don't know how to turn the knowledge they acquired in the university into a source of livelihood.

paddyDIGITAL:

Add money to the card.

There's money on the card. How much should the minimum amount be for the transaction to be successful?

paddyDIGITAL:

What error message do you receive when trying to link the card?

Your card was declined by the issuing bank. Please try a different card or contact your card issuer with questions.

Zankut:
Working

What type did you apply for? International High, Low? Do you have enough funds on it for activation. Some of these CC reps aren't as knowledgeable as they want you to believe.

Thanks for your response. It's International High. I have N3,000 on it, and only about N500 is required for PayPal verification. I think you're correct, the customer care guys at the branch have not been helpful at all.

Your inputs, please.

TonyeBarcanista:

Okay Bros

I just sent you another mail. Please, let me have your response.

I applied for the UBA Visa Africard and was issued sometime in February. The only thing the card does is withdrawal from ATM. PayPal continues to reject my card. I have been to UBA more than to times (No exaggerations), and up till now no solution.

Is it that the Africard has stopped working for PayPal? Please your comments are required.

Thanks.
