FFavouredOne:
Lagos.
I'm unable to reapply cos all the dates i'm seeing now are past my EDD

Just put Lagos address there, where it will be processed is not your concern.
All you want is the out come should be positive. QED

adel3951:
Please can you clarify on that is it that they don't process in Ghana again just Nairobi and Lagos. I'm confused please?

Go to the closest national population commission to you and get a birth registration document also add age declaration in all these your mum should use her maiden name on both

sontelme:
To be honest there is no document to show, marriage certificate, birth certificate nothing! Don't know want to do please advice

Does your birth certificate carry her maiden name, does she have death certificate of your dad
She can get affidavit if the first question is no.
Add a copy of marriage with the 2nd all these to prove she is your mum.
I stand to be corrected and educated.

sontelme:

Please I really need help here as I am confused right now! I'm looking for a school in Canada that I can apply to against Fall 2018 admissions. I saw one but it's a research based course and I don't even know how to go about contacting the supervisors and indicating false interest in research when I kno I'm not interested in research. I wanted to do an M.Sc in Public health in Canada but the deadline to upload documents has passed already for most schools meaning I have to wait till October to start my application again and I don't want that. Please is der any course I can do first to get accepted and then when I get der, I defer my admission and apply for public health instead? I studied biochemistry

Ok I thought as much too.

Good question. As I have all along maintained, the presentation of company bank statement is not a categorical denial of one’s visa application. And depending on an individual’s circumstances, presentation of a company’s bank account as the primary proof of support is actually be the right thing to do. Not all cases are the same. If you sponsored or been trained by your company, showing company bank account is the right thing to do and who is signatory to the account redundant and not necessary. CIC would only need to determine the reputation of the company and why they are expending so much money on you, in reaching their decision concerning your eligibility.

What if it's a company that has training as one of its core values for its staff and had mentioned it in the appointment letter given at time of recruitment.
Do they still need letter of sole signatory from any board member.

Frankrobbn1:
Quote me anywhere! I stand yes!!! and I'm 100% certain that Canadian embassy don't regard Company bank statement as primary proof of funds to applicant for a study visa. Reasons because in each company there are board of directors that foresee the affairs of the company and the visa officer knows that sponsoring applicant from company's account will require you consulting the shareholders of the company, of which they know that the shareholders also have some share from the business finance, with their dependants to cater for.

" I have seen applicants that submitted their application with 150M company bank statements and got refused for insufficient funds. But in their second attempt they changed it to their sponsor personal bank statement and got approved. As I said earlier, you can use company bank statement but make sure you add it up with sponsor personal statement to evident proof of his/her financial establishment.

Note: Applicant that chooses to use only company bank statements for the visa application must provide proof that their sponsor is the sole signatory to the account before such application will scale through and the shareholders of the company won't be a hindrance to this . If not its an automatic refusal for insufficient funds.

Thank you!

Endorsement stopped long ago
The email to write to is here in the thread I have seen it a lot of times. Just type in the key word in the search bar it will be in your face before you say jack

Austinjeffy:
Pls can u tell how to go about the visa on arrival ? I don't know if they still do endorsement of baby visa on mother's passport .

Answer
1) your passport should be valid at least 6 months from the time you land at POE but we have 5 months to expiry date here

2) if answer was yes you can go and return with the same passport no body will stop you from entering Nigeria even if it expiered over 5 years.
In 2014 I came back with a guy who had the passport before this current E passport we are using now from a country in Europe.
I also witness a girl who came to renew her passport in PHC immigration office .her passport was still valid for six months after she got to school in the country she was going to, this no booklet issue too was the case so her dad asked same question
the no.2 answer was what he was given.

Kween2014:
Hello People,
Please I have a few questions, forgive my ignorance;

I currently have a B1/B2 visa expiring in June and I intend to renew via drop-box. However, my passport expires Jan 2019 and my planned trip is in October and I may not be back before the passport expires.

1. Giving the current trend of ‘no passport booklet’, can I travel with my old passport in October even if I have started the process of passport renewal? Just incase it is not ready before I intend to travel. Is this allowed?

2. If yes to my first question, what happens if my passport expires while I am still in the US? And I still haven’t received the new passport.

Thank you.

I saw same but I will play safe and fill all when I get to VFS they will chose if all is not needed.

goingforward:
Thanks for your response. We would get it right away.

One more thing i saw two types of forms, which do i fill. I am a bit confused on the particular one.


Please see attached and help advise on which form to fill.

Goingforward

Dear all,
My friend who is about to apply for visa too tried severely to get a master's degree or post graduate diploma admission but did not get any due to low bachelor's degree CGPA in all the not for refusal sent that was the reason stated. One of the schools advice to go and do another 1st degree to increase CGPA and improve chances. But he now got an academic advance diploma course which is 1 year and very relivant to present job role. His company has agreed to sponsor since it will add value to it's profile.
He said they will give him the following documents
1) bond letter to ensure he returns which states he must return and work 2 years before he can leave them with some many conditions.
2) Introductory letter stating they will pay all fees air ticket monthly upkeep and accommodation
3) A percentage of salary will be paid through the training
4) with other documents

I can't remember all right now

The question is does he stand a chance of getting a study permit.

He is a family friend started it because he saw my admission for masters and my husband's for PhD.

I dont know lagos state very well from the little i know just Find your way to CMS or obalnde then take bus going to VI or Ajah stop at Law school it is very close to there or take a cab from there.
I am used to the Island

omisyk:
I applied to attend conference at Montreal, in the application form i filled MSc as my highest degree but i already have admission for PDG at Brandon. My question now is, will the qualification filled in my application form for visiting visa affect my application for study permit. I intend to apply for study permit with my BSc.

Also i want to find out how to get to Canadian embassy from ojota

Why not take out time to read the cic website. If you want to go on such an adventure the least you could do is read.
It is clear a lot of us just want to be spoon fed.
To your 2nd question it is better you say it as it is.
This is 2018 and you finished service in 2016 so why are you talking of 10 years work experience.

samo50:
thanks JJJV.... pls kindly assist me m applying for a study permit do i still need to fill d questionnaire??
I graduated 2015 nysc 2016 currently unemployed.how do i go abt my employment history for d past 10years /can i fill in NA?

I just sent you a PM please reply it.

jacintaflavian:
i will be applying for visa by end of may.
Memorial university Newfoundland

If the 30 days has not elapsed please pay the discounted rate or a little over to the account sent to you so doing you will lock it down and now have hard evidence to talk with.
That's my take.

CheeseMama:
Pediatrix is just horrible! I called them prior to delivery and was too i couldn't pay in advance as there was no account to apply the payment to since my baby would be the account holder. After delivery i called practically everyday and they did not have my billing information. The HBP rate is only allowed if you pay within 30 days. They just sent me a bill with only account number, the amount isn't stated. After almost 3 weeks, I kept asking if they will honour the discount if i haven't received their bill 30 days from delivery. The payment rep I spoke to was so clueless. I will call them tomorrow to find out what the charge is and also to insist that they honour the HBP rates.

Hello house good day to you all I have a few questions

Na wah to you oh. Are you a learner

Please which school is it my husband and I are looking for such.

Josh1996:
My people sorry for the questions. Pls I have one more last slot to apply to one more school out of two..but am confused
The first option is a school that doesn't require u securing a supervisor and could offer me an admission scholarship
The second option is a school where I have secured a supervisor already but no scholarship or funding .
Which do I pick?

What i would do;
I will make them renew their vows at the registry.
Then apply with pictures from the first marriage and the new certificate and it's iv stating renewal of vows don't forget the pictures too.

My idea is funny I believe.

sheriff88:
Guys. Please what can I do in a situation where parents can't find marriage certificate?

Thanks always.

It means go to the nearest VFS office for biometrics go with your passport that's all I can remember now

omisyk:
After submitting through online route how long does it take to get invitation for biometric.
I got this in my page after submitting. What does it mean

VOA print out and USA passport is ok.

Ehimeomo:
Quick one please, while traveling down to Nigeria with baby, does the baby's US passport need a Nigerian visa on it if the Nigerian passport can't be gotten (probably due to booklet shortage) or will the VOA suffice? Donno if I'm making sense tho or asking the right question or "we" are just returning with US passport & VOA acceptance printout?

No. Besides the transit time is usually between 4 to 5 hours as in you land Paris at 5.3o am local time by 10am boarding has started for US

doyin2me:
Do you need a Schengen visa to fly Air France?

Go to the web page of choice put in your dates as in one week and above and compare it with the rates for less than 7 days on same site. If you like what you see then book then you get there at check you can give up to 1 month date.

swanky6968:
please how much is the weekly or monthly rate

Close to Harris county which Houston spans.

DadiKamC:
Many thanks for your response, very highly appreciated. All those counties are in Houston right? God help us... awi be serious JJC there

I did at 36 weeks went with fit to fly from my ANC Dr. Port health fit to fly was not requested. Go to the airport of choice for location of port health there.
It is also quite easy to get ticket for baby.
Finally check their website for the most up to date information and possibly print it and take along on date of travel.

Aibisoye0:
Hello house,
Please who has flown airfrance to us for birthing. Any idea what is needed to board and can DW fly at exactly 36 weeks?
Will doctors fit to fly be okay or just the port health fit to fly?
Where is the port health located and how much to get fit to fly?

Thanks

Some people do it but yet did not get visa. So it is not a guarantee

swanky6968:
Please I have a question I was adviced by some one to pay the doctor upfront of about $500 and get the receipt thag it gives me a better edge at the interview. Is that true.

Congratulations

elohim24:
hello house, after our denied application last year, we decided not to re-apply as changing data within a short period of time might raise red flag. DW gave birth to a bouncing baby boy in Abuja... mother and child in good health. Baby weigh 3.92kg at birth. we all hope to apply for tourist visa when the baby is 6mnths. thanks for everyone that contributed.

Not true you can use a hotel. That's what I use all the time

DFmum:
Thanks for your response.
please how can one book for an accomodation, i learnt you have to present proof of where you intend to stay at the interview, not hotel. Thanks

Between 180 to 200 USD but it depends on the area.
Those in Katy are cheaper than those on westhimer but there are a lot of them around Harris county don't know about Richmond.

DadiKamC:
Any ideas on the weekly rate? Any specific one in mind? Thank you

If that is how you want it then it is ok

DFmum:

Also include the long stay hotels. It is usually a furnished self contain apartments with Kitchenet the weekly rate is usually discounted and it will be cleaned once a week with replacement of toiletries, you also have a phone to make local calls for free.

DadiKamC:
Good morning Beautiful family.
A colleague introduced us here a couple of months back and I can say we have received invaluable insights from this thread. I wish to thank everyone who has contributed to this thread.
We went for our visa interview and it was successful. Nothing spectacular from the interview that isn't here on this thread. When the VO asked us why we going to the US to birth, why not UK, SA, or anywhere else? We responded we didn't get referral for those other places. He (VO) interjected and said he can tell us the UK is far cheaper, more convenient and has even better healthcare service. In my mind I am like just give us the Visa and leave where is more convenient for us to decide (Lol). Long story short, he granted us the Visa.
Now we will be going to Houston; Oakbend Medical Centre to be precise anytime from late June to early July. Can anyone please assist us with decent cost effective accommodation which isn't too far from the hospital? We are planning to stay between 8-10 weeks. How much should I budget for our accommodation? Wifey will be going first while I and our 2yrs old LO will join her shortly after. We do not wish to share toilets. A room should be fine for us. Anyone with info should please help us. Thank you all for the guidance and God bless you all immensely.

This is why
