[quote author=iwinosajack ]If u carry $10,000 & above and u nor declare & u are caught, na big wahala b dat ooh! My advise b say if u must carry big cash wit u, let it b around $9,500(u can always transfer d remaining cash from niaja wen u get to canny). Keep like $500 in ur pocket & keep d remaining $9000 in a safe place in ur carry- on( your carry-on bag should always b with u). If u must carry $10,000 & above, declare it! You will b given a slip on d flight to canny on which u ought to declare cash in excess of $10,000. Best of luck[/quote]Oh nice 1 oga iwinosajack....i dig ur info....but it would be preferable to stay within $10k just like my papa Fhemmy said....i guess d oga wey need dis info go don see am.....tanx and God bless |

[quote author=mistur_chris]thanks Ceo cash.my only problem now is that im far from owerri.and i dont know when i would be free to go back there.i was there last week to start processing my transcripts and didnt even see anyone thee because of the strike.and i wanna apply as early as september. this thing is harder than i thought.i wish there was another alternative[/quote]Are u targeting winter 2014 session?...if so hmmm!?...i dont knw how long it takes to process transcript in ur uni but as for my own great uni it takes almost 2months to process transcript...pls put into consideration that after getin ur transcript u will still send ur docx to MUN.....MUN will still take anoda 3 - 4weeks to grant u admission if they have space available for u...my point here is why not apply to any canadian college or at least keyano college(no tuition required)  to apply for ur visa and while processing MUN Admission underground switch to it wen u get to canny.....am just saying noni.....dis late submission to embassy is becoming much oo and i hope u knw there is no emergency visa..am nt ceo mr cash so dis is my 1kobo..lol...... |

I stole this info from my Past oga jokzoh from previous part of this forum……I noticed reading the thread from part 1 – 4 is really eyes frying so I resolved to paste some of the useful and helpful posts again to make life easier……… This info is mainly for winter applicants looking for ways to package their applications efficiently…. From: Jokzoh TO ALL INTENDING APPLICANTS; It wud be very helpful to you if you can take the pain to read through the thread. YOU NEED to understand how the VOs think so as to know how to prepare your application. There is no one particular format for Visa application packaging- all you need is to understand what they want and present your application with no loopholes in it. However, this is what I have learnt from my experience so far..... 1. You NEED to show that you have enough money to come to Canada, pay your fees, bills & living expenses and eventually return home. You don't want to tell me your distance cousin who had been conspicuously absent in your academic life is suddenly offering to sponsor you to Canada now. You have to be able to PROVE why and how WITH evidence. 2. Show them why you can't wait to return to Nigeria. Please don't tell them you are coming here to study Msc Wireless communication but plan to return home after your studies to manage your Dad's poultry farm or cement depot. ... Not smart! 3. Present a simple application. When too cumbersome it's becomes boring to the VO who probably still has a ton of other applications to treat that day and Don't present unverifiable docs especially as your vital docs. (In this case, A 500 hectares of land in Ngwo Enugu may carry a LESSER weight than an easily verifiable 500k Dangote sugar share certificate at CAHC ~I might be wrong but if I were the VO It would.) And finally, The SOP is for you to win the heart of the VO. Let it tell a good story about you and dont tell UNREASONABLE lies. Just like you could win a girl's heart with skilful writing, I believe you can also make a VO want to show interest in your application with a nice and concise SOP. I'm going to use American Idol show to buttress my point here: some of the applicants actually scaled tru the initial screening not cos they could really sing but cos of their magnetic personality and their applications (their brief video profile) tell an interesting story about them. And above all, be prayerful.....Cheers! To: Wonderful Readers of Travelling Canada Nairaland Forum…... Regards ChriGo Medical Hopeful for Winter Session 2014 2 Likes |
