Nuendo: happy bday to The One and Only Onye Oma . Wish him many more prosperous years ahead.

Today is Operation Storm CDHC. I did my medicals on the 25th and resubmitted on the 26th of July . Resumption is Sept 3. So moved by the spirit, I want to take proactive steps so that them go remember say pesin never buy Tickets and Schedule accommodation because of the wait. I wasn't asked to pay for tuition or board (although about 3 other individuals in the house who are going to U of Calgary and applied earlier weren't as well and they have been issued TRV) So i want to go and remind d busy people of CDHC that I still dey line.

I hope to return to the house with good news. Would keep everyone posted.

Good Day.

alright bro. best of luck

kjbobo: Sent the mail. .lemme know if you got it

seen

lucky Don: Nwanne mmadu,thanks so much for the encouragement.God will perferct ur struggles and all of us here too.

Am really sorry to hear about this bro. I misplaced my bb today so I couldn't get in touch with you.
please don't be despair. Prepare to fireback and by God's grace, you will get it right this time. This delay is gonna be for good In sha Allah.
I know you have a strong heart, just keep the hope live. love mucho bro #nohomo.

kjbobo: I doubt oo....you can ask the consultants practice people. ..They detailed me they don't send it directly to CDHC. ..
Reply the p.m so I can also forward the mail CDHC sent to me..although they said it takes 3-4 weeks in the mail...I agree with you that it doesn't take more than two weeks to get to them from France.
Like you said....every stage with its "challenges"....My resumption is next Monday. ...But I am just at peace. ..that it is settled!

pls 4wd the email to me. I sent a pm but u didn't send the email.

anabor: Generals in the house(@Gboyega,@kjbobo,@Fhemmy,@Siga,@dommakavelli, e.t.c)please I need your advice. My TRV was turned down on the basis that my sponsor was not CREDIBLE, even with the fact that my sponsor had an account balance of 6million and CoO of two properties. Do you advice I send a mail to CDHC to explain further on what they mean by my sponsor not being "Credible", to enable me know where I went wrong in my application, or should I simply reapply for another TRV for Winter?

Am sorry about that bro. You don't need to mail them.
Let's do justice to those questions mr Phemmy asked you then, you can refire.
You'll get it this time by God's grace.

greatheights: How long wud it take mi to process a police report @alagbon...

30mins-3hrs

greatheights: Where re the generals in the huz

Don't worry, VFS go settle d arrangement for you.
bar code is dat image dat u generate wen u validate ur trv form.

oghenet: I can do that rightaway, but all modes of payment will take at least 5 business days to reflect in my student account. I''m just thinking of the fastest way out of this.

If you pay with your credit card, I think you'll get a transaction receipt immediately. You can print that n send to CDHC while you wait for original acknowldgement from your sch.
On d boading issue, You should be ok wit what Mr Phemmy n Mr siga advised. As a matter of fact, that was the advise I got from the international student advising dept of my sch.

ceo mr ca$h:
I only paid a deposit to secure a space. Besides it seems dt i contacted them b4 you.

Ok bro. That means you've been given an offer for accomodation.

So, wot r u preparations abt d off campus accommodation. Any luck yet?
Are you on bbm? Yahoo messenger or gtalk.

DrNeoCortex: Hi all,

I am quite happy i stumbled upon this thread while trying to figures out what to do with my plans. Apparently no one here seem to have a similar issue as I do or at least the few I read.

First, i have been working in Nigeria for like 5yrs and presently earn about N380k monthly minus bonuses and all. Through must of these i have been able to save up for my MBA and written GMAT. I'm applying to the University of Victoria (sept 2014). The tuition is about $33k (N5million). My issue is that i do not have a sponsor to support my visa application. However, i hve been able to save about N6million so far for tuition and living expenses. Another N1.2million in my retirement savings account. Kindly advise if I still need a sponsor as my parents are retired and do no wish to start disturbing Uncles and Aunties for sponsorship.

Is it possible for me to be my own sponsor, considering that i have my tuition and living expenses in my account. Your response will be highly appreciated. Thank you.

You can sponsor yourself provided the money in your account is not a lumpsum deposit.
Include your payslip, employment letter and a leave of study from your employer.
The leave of study should indicate that your job is safe in the firm while you are away. That will serve as home tie for you.

ceo mr ca$h:
M.sc (MATHEMATICS). Bro cdhc instructed mi to pay 4 tuition and board. But i paid for one year tuition and a smal deposit to board. Thou wil eventualy stay off campus wen i get dia. Wad program r u goin for?

Mine is economics MA.
How did you manage to pay for board? They told me the hostels are full already.

ceo mr ca$h:
Nope! Wil lik to stay off campus. Wil secure accomdatn once the trv is issued to me. How ur syd bro?

Am good sir.
Lucky you. I guess CDHC didn't bother you with d boarding tin.
What's your course?

ceo mr ca$h:
Ma schol is Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN)
Program : Masters Degree

What Course?
Have you gotten accommodation?

Congrats bro.TRV on the way..
Were you asked to pay tuition b4?

kjbobo: I think you have a ground to probe why you have not been contacted (especially if you weren't given further instructions)
The mail they sent to me yesterday clearly states they get medicals within 3-4 wks.
Yours is a lil over..I will advise you visit them especially if you are within lag and resumption is near.
You can p.m me..I will forward the mail to you.
All the best bro

Pls 4wd d email to me too.

kjbobo: Yes boss..you right..but lets brainstorm. ..How do you explain online applicants being told to bring their passports immediately their med results got to the embassy?
That suggests to us applications are attended to based on when med results get to embassy (assuming there arent further instructions) not necessarily when you submitted your passport.
Lemme paint this scenario to you.
Assuming I was called on 10th and you called on 15th...if u did meds on 18th and held your passport and could not submit till maybe 25th.And me, even though was called before you but did meds 21st and submitted 22nd before you.
All other things being equal, your results will get to them before mine and your application attended to before mine even though I submitted my passport to vfs before you!
Do you agree?

Ok, I agree wit u, but let's wait for CEO's TRV.
Online is diff from paper route tho.

ceo mr ca$h:
Bro i returned ma passport on july 31. But wad matters is de time the medics was done.

Ok. Let's c if u won't receive ur trv b4 d week runs out or first 2 days of nxt week..*cos of sallah holz*
My calculation is 3 weeks n few days after submission of passport.*all tins bin eaqual*.

ADEMOLA AAUA: I applied to a university in Canada for my PG,i asked a friend in Canada to pay the processing fee on my behalf,i would like to knw whatelse to do?

Have you submitted your supporting documents such as transcript, results, reccommendation letters, letter of intent, writing samples etc?
Is your course research based? if yes, Were you asked to search for a supervisor?

kjbobo: Don't really think when passports where returned matter after medicals
.
.
What really matters is when the medical was done!

Ok bro.
But From my experience here, I think wen u returned ur passport n oda docx matters.
Even CDHC advised that Passport should be returned as soon as you're tru wit your medic.

ceo mr ca$h:
For my fellow peeps who did their medics btw 22-26 july, pls wads causin dis delay n when are we expectin to get our trv? Cos dis wait nobi moi moi#
May JEHOVAH help us all...mor gudnews Loadin...

Bro, When did you return your passport after medic

kjbobo: Yea...samples are interpreted in their respective countries and results sent. ..but the e-medical software is centralized for collation in France and sent to respective clinics.
In a nutshell, no hospital has a direct link with CDHC. .but with France. .then France (which I believe is a Med centre) has the direct access!
And as we have been able to observe, seems as if guys that went through the online route get notification in their account when their results are sent to the embassy(another positive for online) as we observed in Aduke02's case, she said she did medicals July 11 and got notification in her account on 25th that her meds has been sent (exactly two weeks).I stand to be corrected, dont think vfs route gives this notification!
Dommakavelli. .u clear now?

Yea bro..tanx for d clarification

kjbobo: @ Nuendo

For the record...I will like to clear the misconception I had..you were right on the "France story"..As I thought that they were saying samples were sent to France for interpretation(which I found difficult to believe). ...but what was being said was that results (e-medicals) were usually sent to France from all the approved clinics across the globe... That's the Central collation point then decentralized to respective embassies.
So you were correct.
For the records friends. .the next time you call clinic for your results and they tell you its been sent (they are saying sent to France not Embassy).

If I understand you well, Do you mean they send test results to france not samples for test?

nas-jay:
no, USD get more weight. 1 US Dollar equals 1.03 Canadian Dollar

Kk bro, well conversions are not stable figures...just like I said. "The last time I checked"

Chatters: You can't eat your cake and have it. You have to pay for services rendered. Abi you want make them do everything for you free? Whichever way you look at it. They re there to make moni nd not some charity org.

Bros abeg no vex o, I dn't mean it that way o. N I tink we re here to learn.
Well, Am just trying to tell you that CAD has more value than USD. This is not about charges. It's d int'l conversion rate.

Abeg, am sorry, I won't make further corrections/comments on ur post.

Chatters: Yes Canadian dollar and US dollar are different. But you have d advantage with US dollar because it is an international currency accepted almost anywhere. Again the US dollars have a higher value than Canadian dollars. That means you won't notice the conversion rates much. The problem is not really with the conversion rates per say as you will be charged the current value of the currency you are withdrawing. The problem is with the bank charges and visa/MasterCard charge you incur as a result of using your card outside Nigeria (for naira MasterCard)or using your credit card outside the US( for visa credit card). By and large the charges are not that much. I think visa charges you less than 2% of the transaction worth. Which is not much if you come to think of it.

Hey!! I disagree..0.01 na sumtin o. CAD get more weight.
The last time I checked, 1usd=0.99cad.

ChriGo: oga bumdish...i hail sir...canada biz na serious biz...buh we still nid sumtin cheer up noni.....admire ur gud work here sir and i hope i jam u 4 canny make u talk wetin u talk now .....hehehe...tanx sir i don reduce d smileys...i dy even tink of telling sean osewa make e remove am totally on my account alone so dat yawa no go dey again....i salute u sir....all d best

ChriGo: well oga siga u have spoken well but d fact still remains dat we're all humans and we have one feeling or the other which we tend to ease off wit sum form of comedy or music......if weren't human then there wont be jakie chan,chris talker,basket mouth,chris rock,alibaba etc...this are guys that av travelled far and wide with dis same comedy alot of peeps ar complaining and are taking serious for not just comedy but every oda tinz dey do....there is tension in d house which falls in a category of feelings.... Am sure if i had posted dis same comedy thin without d smileys sum natural hating peeps will still complain...i typed dis without any smileys sha hope u wont b distracted dis time.....

Yea, this is interesting...no smiley.
