I recently got admission to study a 2 years college programme in health, in ontario. I'm in my early 30s, highest level of education is secondary education, WAEC. My sister who lives in Canada paid my first year fees fully and is happy to sponsor me fully.
I have received my PAL, attestation letter, acceptance, to resume this coming September.

I am the last of family of 5, and the only one left in Nigeria. How do I prove ties to home country. Will proof of funds from my sister be enough. I have been working in the same company for about 10 years where they pay us by hand, money is very small and I don't have any savings in my account.

Any ideas on how I can prove ties to my home country, sort the proof of funds and write SOP?

SOPWriter:
I believe his questions are already addressed.

I'm just curious, do you write SOPs?

Great Ife. This should be moved to front page please....

Hi,

Just wondering, how did you arrive at a diagnosis of impetigo?
Where is the yellow crust?
Are you a medic? A dermatologist?
Have you heard of inflammatory dermatosis and the different types.

Best is to advise the young man to go see a qualified medic. You can't make a diagnosis by looking at a picture. You need to take a detailed history, examine, feel the lesion and sometimes take a closer look with a dermoscope if indicated.

APOPTOSIS:
There's nothing airborne about it.
In Nigeria everyone is a medical practitioner.
The Lawlessness & recklessness cuts across every field.

Meanwhile, That's an Impetigo.
It very common, & its contagious by touch.
Ordinarily I don't support online prescriptions but I will renege on such & recommend something.

Go & get Mupirocin cream.
Use it thrice a day. Make sure you clean surface before applying it. Remove yellow crusts from surface before applying cream.
Oral antibiotics are not necessary at all.
That's like using a sledgehammer to maim a fly.

It does, for the sake of your kids, have a unified surname

You are using emotion to say it does.

It doesn't at all. My brothers wife did not change her name. It's been 15 years, 4 kids. She's traveled everywhere with kids alone. Done stuff on behalf of her husband. No single issue.

I don't understand o.
Was he 18 years old then? He looked like a 40 years old man

For me overall- Brainjotter.

Where is Mr Macaroni on the list?

Thank you very much for your response.
The wife's company give 6135. The husband came in with 6136 which is the current visa that was revoked.

Thankfully he has gotten another sponsor that just gave him 6135, not the initial 6136 he came with. Will this cover his wife?

Thank you once again for your swift response.

AetA:
This is dicey, if it was the husband switching it is easier and because the application his wife would put in will be treated as a fresh application, if the SOC code is 6135 most likely the husband would be denied because from the trend they approved couple with kid(s) under 6135 but reject couple without kids, the tweak to it might be if the wife's company have a COS slot for 6136 (the senior HCA) they should give her that way her husband's dependant visa will be approved or if she can get an NHS to sponsor her under 6131. I hope this helps

My question is about the tier 2 visa switch.

I have a colleague who was principal applicant and his wife was dependent. They don't have children yet. Recently my colleague's VISA was revoked and given 60 days notice by home office. His wife's company plan to give her COS/sponsorship.

Can my friend switch to become a dependent under his wife under current visa rules or would he need to find his own COS asap? Anyone with similar experience recently who can share how they navigated the switch.

Lol..

lapazi:
why?

Canadians don't need VISA and don't need to complete the ETSA form.

Mexicans need VISA usually.

Will.play with it.

PDP will always win delta

This was what they said about Edo until it happened.

Fair shot. PEJ was something else, her use if English and charisma. She was very brave in spite of all the challenges GEJ faced.

The fact that he didn'task for money makes it even worse for the naija based guy.
Not asking and receiving 20k, shows the guy get you for mind. Person wen send you 20k na him go fit send 200k later or even when you run into challenges would be willing to help.

He can politely ask his friend nit to ever send him money again since he didn't ask and return the 12 dolars

Timoleon:
They said 18 years wrongly. The body of the article says the person left in 2008. To the matter of 'his poor friend' nowhere was it said that his friend was poor. Like it was said in the OP and I have reiterated, the Nigerian based friend didn't ask him for money. The abroad based person messaged by himself to say send you account number. If he was struggling abroad, he should have simply maintained status quo. No harm in that. If I am struggling, my priority will be receiving not giving randomly even to people that didn't ask me for anything.

pussyeater:
Ogun keee your neighbor. Na people like your neighbor dey stingy pass, werey. You know how many other people he send N20k to, within the same period. He fit be say na 20 people he send N20k each to, which fit equals N400k, but your werey neighbor is an ingrate. Thunder fire your neighbor, tell am say na me talk am. Also tell am make I no catch am for street

This is very valid. Once people in naija can access someone abroad, it's one request or the other.
On a good day, one can send money to 10 to 20 people within a month. If you begin send 200k each to 20 people, you can imagine what will happen to the abroad guy.

We just need to stop being entitled.

Its just unfortunate that some people reason like this.
Do you know what people pass through abroad. The fact that he reconnected with hisnfriwnd is enough. If he sent him 20k, thats just an extra for him to do something no matter how small ut may be.
If the guy sent 20k now, he may be able to send 100k at another time, he may also be able to help him in other ways.

By the way,friendship should not be parasitic. This guy in Naija can also send his abroad friend a gift. It does not matter who is abroad or who is in naija.

Timoleon:
Lol...this is worse than insult. It's better to not send anything than ring someone up after 16 years in the abroad just to send 12$.

Some people will say it's 'entitlement mentality'. But if I see you for road, you dey mind your business I come hala say I know say life hard, take 50 naira go find biscuit chop, before you die for our neck. You go reason better blow for mouth. After all, you no beg me for food or for money. Despite the fact that I just gave you my 'hard earned' money, you'd know in your heart of hearts that I just undermined you.

For 16years, bro has been managing to survive, How would you message him out of the blues to send him 12$. One carton of indomie.

He appointed his son in-law as CEO federal housing authority.

Na wa ooo

Welcome to Nigeria

There is no tight race. Election is likely rigged already.

It's very sad what the current INEC has reduced our democratic process to. It's now more of selection than election.

May the best man win.

Atiku sold out his ambition the day he supported Buhari vs GEJ. Tinubu saw the future and knew it would be coming down south after Buhari. Atiku is not smart.

Judolisco:
Atiku can no longer contest.... It's over for him politically.... If he had allowed Jonathan to run once more.... He would have succeeded him.... How on earth would he think, he'll take over for buhari another northerner after 8 yrs?

I am not saying i support whats happening to Tinubu, but this was exactly how they treated President Goodluck Jonatha, and Tinubu was at the forefront of all the insults.

Rostikol:
Tinubu is being too gentlemanly for my liking.

He is acting like he's the president of Sweden or Canada.

Gentleman presidency.

This is NIGERIA, not Sweden or UK.

You have to be ruthless here, because people here are not gentlemen.

They are very rugged, rough people, with no conscience.

PRESIDENT TINUBU needs a reality check.

I don't think he fully understands that he is the PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA, AND COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC.

Every Tom, Dick, and Harry riffraff (from the East mostly) goes online to abuse him and call him all sorts of unprintable names on a daily basis.

How long before he says ENOUGH?

How much abuse can one man take?

Dragging his name all over the whole internet and abusing him daily!

Enough already....

He should start by ordering the SS to go after people making incendiary, unproven allegations against him online, and drag them to court to testify and prove their allegations, or sue them for libel and defamation.

A couple of lengthy jail sentences for the culprits will discourage the rest of the online mob of imbeciles insulting him daily because of free internet access.

Mr President needs to understand that this country is filled with ASSHOLES who will take advantage of his gentlemanism.

He needs to start acting like a damn PRESIDENT.

He must become at least as strong as Obasanjo was in his time.

Personally I think he should be far stronger and more mean, because this new generation think they are wiser than everybody, and so require some HEAVY discipline that will shut them up and teach them manners.

He had health challenges and non of his big men friend could help him?

He has gone to rest now, may God rest his soul, amen.

Gettipro:
Good morning Nairalanders. I got this email yesterday. How long would it take for me to get a mail from TLS after this email below? I didn't get a mail to know if the visa was approved or refused. What could be the likely decision?

Dear..

Thank you for contacting UK Visas and Immigration International Contact Centre.

With regards to your enquiry about the status of your application, our records indicate a decision has been made on your application. We cannot discuss the outcome of your application on-line or by telephone.

If your visa has been granted, a visa vignette (sticker) will be stuck inside your passport with 3 months validity (from the start of your visa) to travel.

You will be contacted by VFS/TLS when your passport is ready for collection, or delivery of your passport.

Please do not attend the VAC until you have been contacted as you won’t be able to collect your passport until it is ready.

We strongly recommend that you do not buy a non-refundable, non-flexible ticket to the UK, until your visa application has been approved and you have received your documents.

Please note the information given to you on the progress of an application is dependent on the details you provide, and we can only provide the progress updates based on the application reference number given.

We do not have access to specific case information and so progress updates could be subject to change. Please wait for formal contact or a decision letter before taking any further steps.

Did you get the visa?

Jobakemz:
Hi everyone,
Please I have an issue here. My dad's 6 months visa was just approved and collected yesterday after almost 3montgs of waiting.
However he received a refusal mail also yesterday.
The UK vignette is already on his passport and shows 25-09-2022 till a date in march.
The date on refusal letter shows 10-10-2022. Which probably means someone else checked the application. Errors were also noted on the refusal letter, such as account balances.
Please any ideas on way forward or do we just ignore.

How did you resolve this issue??

oriazowan:
Thank you very much I ll do just that.

Have you received your passport? Were you able to track on UPS?

I honestly think it's the real Tony. Welcome sir.

Time shall tell.

Ceenaija:
We are tired of eating the soup prepared by the APC .The situation calls for a change and change is now or never. The change we need now
Is the labour party if labour party fails we will never hastate to push them out.

Same thing was said when APC won vs Jonathan. Guess what, they have done 8 years and another 8 years loading.

Until we have political parties with strong ideological leanings, Nigeria will not change.

AbdulMagaji:
The last shall become the first and the first the last

You're right, just like it happened in Imo state.

What happened to David?

DaddyFreeze2020:
Results from the Northern parts of Nigeria shows Atiku in maximum confidence of victory.
These are the most populated States that have given almost 90% of their votes to Atiku, despite Kwankwaso another contender from the North being on the ballot.

Kano
Jigawa
Gombe
Kebbbi
Yobe
Sokoto
Kaduna North

Big lie.
