Green card.

Even animals can be neat and orderly but some humans choose not to. If you are reading this and you are one of those humans, SHAME!

Oh! My PM is not working, I can't remember the email and password for this account. However, @koonlay5 gave it to me. I contacted him and he wants 20k, is it what it is?

Apparently if you try get it from the Nigerian embassy it will cost $50 excluding postage. That's just under 20k.

salford:
U can land with like $5k. Then transfer the rest in bits if that would be better.

Registered Nurse is usually 4 years i.e Degree in Nursing, but some Universities offer programs that lets you complete it in 2 years if you have a degree. You would be required to pass some biological sciences courses before class starts.

Licensed Practical Nurse is 2 years. Offered in some colleges.

Personal Support Worker/Health Care Aid: 4 to 6 months

Some smaller cities or provinces would employ and train people to become psw without the certificates e.g this is common in Winnipeg. Previously common in Calgary too, but now competition is fiece for psw jobs in Calgary and employers often ask for the certificate.

You can also try apply for chemistry/chemist jobs when you land. There are a few around on jobsites. My organization (a Provincial Government) for example has a vacancy for an Entry Level Chemist currently posted on our internal job site. If no one applies by the 15th of next month, it would be thrown to the street. Starting wage is $39 an hr with lots of benefits and healthy pension plan. Requirement is just a Bachelor in Chemistry or a diploma in Chemical Technology. If it's thrown out to the street, I would send you a pm.

Wow if you don't mind abeg PM me too.

For people in the Oakville area interested in becoming PSWs.

A man identified as Funmilade Adeyemi that was earlier declared wanted by the EFCC, has finally been finally by the anti-graft agency.

Funmilade Adeyemi, with the fake name Prof Alexander Moses of Ghana had had so many petitions filed against him at the EFCC office, by the people he defrauded up to the tune of N27 million.

One of the people he scammed took to her Instagram page to notify other victims of his arrest and implored them to go to the EFCC office to submit their petitions against him.

Read her post below:

Hello all please I would like to know the risk of applying alone without my hubby(unaccompanied) this is because my crs score it's 444 and with hubby it's 437...what are the procedures for sponsoring once i get to canada?

The procedures are pretty simple. You fill out the application and submit proof of your relationship. The problem is that it can be quite a wait before the application is fully processed. You can expect it to take at least 10 months and up to 16 months and even beyond.

Really,

I came in in Jan. Went for my test in March and went with the letter. I already had about 9 years driving experience from Nigeria and it was not accepted. They (Drive test) told me; they only accept letters from the embassy.

Well you can shoot your shot, it could swing either ways.

Yeah it sounds like a hit or miss. Or it might be dependent on the drive test centre. Someone told me they went there with the frsc letter and they were told to get the one from Ottawa cos the frsc one was "fake".

zengurl:
No it is not.

Forget the shortcut. Just come and do your G1 test and then schedule the G2 Driving test afterwards, you can get your G2 in 2 months after writing the G1. With your G2 you can drive anywhere and anytime. Only restrictions on Alcohol level. 0% alcohol at all times while driving.

I have a US license which after self declaring 1yr experience, should get me the G2 license without a road test. Then I'll self declare another 1yr experience from naija so I can take the G test whenever I'm ready. That's the plan.

zengurl:
Do not bother yourself with the DL Authentication letter from FRSC, they will not accept it at drive test centers. The only acceptable form is a letter from the Nigerian Embassy in Ottawa. Well, I do not know of other provinces but I can speak about Ontario.

Do you know if the letter is still required if you choose to self declare only 1yr driving history from Nigeria? Their website says no, but I just want to confirm. I plan to self declare 1yr from naija and 1yr from US.

Is this not where insurance comes in? Or am I missing something?

Yes insurance comes in at severe consequence to you in the form of a deductible, higher premiums or both!

The visa your agent gave you will land you in trouble if you approached any airport with it.

You are not a Norwegian, you never traveled or lived in Norway before but you are holding a visa with a Norwegian document?

Advice to noobs like me. No jam anybody for America o. Dem go try use you chop. You just kiss their car small, dem fit try sue you and claim shey na personal hardship and other spurious medical expenses.

luffyhaki:
I don't think there's anything to worry about though..But let others weigh in given I have not gotten PPR yet.

I agree. Shouldn't be an issue. Plus there's a valid explanation anyway. I also don't think there's usually an in depth review of the file after PPR.

This is really interesting. Do you (or anyone seeing this), know if there is a comprehensive listing of all free courses available to immigrants?

For those coming in soon, RBC is giving out iPads for the promo this year. It ends August 31st though.

What's the criteria?

Bykins:
Chai, people sha. Oga, whether he used human beings parts to get the money. Can you just please appreciate his gesture rather than ranting about what's not at all important?

So if he used human parts to get the money, that's not important? The human that died to supply the parts doesn't have a mother? The person that was swindled out of their last card that they wanted to use to buy their own mother a car is not important? The person that commits suicide after losing their life savings to Yahoo boys doesn't have a mother?
