Prooudly afonja but let's know and agree that we as tribe in Nigeria have a specific place we are very good at...no gain saying. ..ipob are representing wella...the few afonjas there are like phyno nd the rest few ipob in the music industry...

Yorubas doing Nigerian proud in entertainment industry whist igbos are giving Nigerian the much needed exposure all over...

While the hausas...I swear to God I don't know what to say concerning them. ..I'm terribly sorry no hard feelings please

Stop being tribalistic! Young generations of this country seems more tribalistic than the older generation

Good evening people

Please my wife was denied the Canadian visitor Visa on Thursday, The reasons they gave in the letter was that she might not come back to Nigeria

I would like to find out if we can appeal and the procedure to follow.

Was she the only that applied?

Ronkfash:
Today i was denied. A very sad and disappointing experience.
Hubby and i were very confident we would get visas. Unfortunstely the blonde lady had other plans for us.

I answered most of the questions because hubby was holding our 2 year old son who was fast asleep. All our documents were with me. Neatly filed.

This happened in Lagos, today in the morning. We came into town from PH lastnight and were right on time for the interview.
I wore my best pants and jacket, did my hair and makeup( as advised on here)lol

VO: goodmorning
US: goodmorning. How are you doing today? (Smiles) i passed our passports
Vo. No response

I have noticed that sometimes, when they have made up their mind not to give you, they wont want to see your documents. But when they want to give you, that's when they ask for document
Vo. Where will u be going
Dw. Houston texas
Vo. Why?
Dw. Im pregnant and will be taking my maternity leave to go have my baby ( stole this exact response from here too).
Vo. Nodding.
Dw. By the way i work with xxxx as yyy. However my husband will b sponsoring our trip
Vo. And where do u work? Referring to hubby
Dh. I work as a Bleep in xyz (a well known agency known to pay good money). My husband kept talking. I almost asked him to chill out. My feet were killing me. My killer heels werent helping. Well, he finally did. Lol
Dw. I quickly chipped in. Here are our employment letters.
V.o i wont be needing them
V.o how long have you worked there?(looking at hubby)
Dh. 12 years 5months
I almost told her mine too but i decided to not let oversabi get us in trouble.
V.o which hospital will u be using?
Dw. oakbend medical centre and my doctor is dr F. Here is my doctors correspondence and acceptance letter.
Vo no gree answer. So i offered to show her again. She declined.
Vo. How much will this trip cost?
Dw. Medical bill is 8k and A total of 17k for the entire trip. Would you like to see our budget sheet?
Vo. Ermmmmm.... no
Vo. How long will you be staying?
Dw. 8weeks
Vo: including you? To my husband
Dh. No, my annual leave is 4weeks. so 3weeks is all i can spare.
Vo. And ur son will be with you the entire 8 weeks?
Dw. Yes. Although..... ( she didnt let me finish)
Vo. Im sorry blah blah blah.....next thing blue paper.

Paper says we dont have enough ties. *SHOCKING*

MY Edd is in june, thats next month. Id love to apply for expedited interview. Perhaps ill apply alone. Hope say my husband son job and properties will be enough "ties". Roll eyes.

Please my people. How do i go about this. Please im tired of reading. Dont tell me to read tvrough and search button. I hv been reading for 6 months non stop. I need someone who can pity me and tell me exactly how to go about it. I am very sad oloun. I'm trying to keep it together.

Africans and their mentality. Even in the midst of challenges like war and hardship, people still de born. I am sure most of them took in and got pregnant in order to get help or favors from NGOs knowing fully well that pregnant and nursing mothers are usually assisted.

Poor people and wickedness!! Some people believed that the rich people are the wicked ones that would not make heaven. But I have noticed, especially in Nigeria, that wickedness, greed, envy and killing are more common among the poor in the society.

Career › Re: Stay Back In Nigeria Or Travel To Canada by Focusmind: 8:16pm On May 01, 2018

I will advise you stay back and continue with your high-paying job. As a single lady, boredom will "kill" you over there. This Canada immigrant thing is always good when you are married and probably with kids. Your situation in Nigeria is far better than that of millions. Go on vacations, treat your self well, continue to grow and develop on your job. You can always reapply for the Canada immigrants program. Don't just rush into uncertainty. Many people that were successful in the immigrant program are still unemployed even after more than two years. Some are into what they call "finishing " school just to get accustomed with Canada way of life and how to adapt. Is not a guarantee that you will be successful. Some are doing jobs far below their qualifications and below the jobs they had in Nigeria. Think please!

When AGIP moves the headquarters to Lagos now, they will start complaining. I have said it before, Nigeri- Delta is their own worst enemy. Youth organizations are destroying businesses in that area. My friend couldn't establish a common barbing saloon because community youth wouldn't allow him do anything.

Trust me, it is a matter of time before AGIP moves back to Lagos

Bro, they are not greedy, rather they are very uncomfortable with poverty. People seems comfortable with poverty in Northern Nigeria unlike south where people do everything, though sometimes through good or bad means to extricate themselves from poverty just for the sake of their unborn children

If it's paper, they collect your passport. But if online, you hold your passport till visa is approved.

Thank you Omodadi

One more clarification please - If I apply online, can I still go to VFS and pay for the visa and biometric fees in naira at their office in Lekki or must the payment be online through card in Canadian dollar since the application was online?

Omodadi2:
If you had clicked in the link, most questions you asked here would have bin answered since she said all you need is there. However, yes for paper route, download, complete, submit at VFS and do biometrics. If you submit online, you can also pay online with your card, then go to same office for biometrics with a letter that will be sent to you after application confirmation. Hope this helps

Well done! Omodadi - you answered well. Will they collect my international passport at the VFS office as well or is it when my application is approved that I bring the international passport?

Hello Hotstepper, do I need to download the forms, fill them and submit to the VFS office in Lekki?

Do I fill the form directly real time online and submit - if going through this route, how do I pay for the visa fees and biometric? Do I still need to go to the CVAC/VFS office in lekki for the visa and biometric payment?
