I think the French security diplomats breached security rule by not identifying themselves. Who does that in a security conscious country like Israel for that matter.

How many people here pay their light bill regularly and genuinely?

We abuse the system yet we still have many power thieves by passing power, some prefer to settle disco staff than to pay to disco account.

Power has improved more than the days of NEPA but we still have a lot of people defaulting.

A lot of us can't live abroad without defaulting. Default is our default setting.

Sadly enough we have lost our sense of patriotism. Everything we do now must be looked from the eyes of tribe, religion and nepotism.

I saw someone said how does the position help us because you never got any money from her holding the role. Its high time we stopped thinking like 9ja policemen. Have you ever dreamed in your life thst one day you may find yoursekf in the USA and when you say you are a Nigerian a foreigner will draw reflection from NOI and say oh Nigerians are bright and smart people.

Pls let's not allow our poor mindset to affect us. Everything in life is not tribe or garri and beans.

You can be struggling or broke and still have a great mindset. That is very key for success.

You guys have brought your tribalism, nepotism here.

If the whites are all qualified then what is the issue?

Why can't we see things from the eyes of competence for once?

9ja mentality die by fire 🔥.

No need to argue, i know the brain/talent drain in Nigeria is massive. When we will eventually find out, it may be too late.

Not true.

Take it easy, it's an election not a war.

Congrats your wish came to pass.

Shame on all Nairaland anti-Trump. Those people were so convinced that Kamala would win as if they would rig the elections for her... Trump seems to know how to beat women in elections 🤔

Now this is why elders would say don't burn bridges, you'd be surprised how often you'll need to cross the same river.

Imagine Zuckerberg, google and those social media/tech giant companies that blocked Trump back then across their platforms forcing him to start his own truth social. Now what goes around has come around.
Like my Nairalander elders would say "The chicken has come home to roost!"

Righteousness might be right after all. These things are not ordinary, Imagine that Trump is always the one coming around each time Israel is in the middle of a war. And the guy no like Iran at all. 🥵

I always laugh whenever I watch the clip of his infamous boasting of how he killed Iranian IRGC general Qasem Soleimani

"He died like a dog"

Don't forget, Trump is so bold that he is the only world leader that challenged Buhari over the unnecessary killings of Christians in the South East and Southern Kaduna. He said to the old hag "Why are you killing Christians in Nigeria?"
Baba almost piss piss for body.😀

Okay... Thanks for the advice.
I will prefer the PR. Can you refer some group for me.

If it is real visitor visa expiration you are talking about then you can apply alone since your hubbys and child own are active. You are likely to be given if you havent abuse the visa given to you earlier but you must meet every requirement for visit visa by Nigerians.

The reason for your application can be family vacation or better visiting a foreign worker/student/PR/Citizen in Canada. You will have to share the active visit visa stamp of your family members and with proof of relationship with them.


Goodluck.

[quote author=larrybam post=132718175][/quote]

Exactly, Canada is not ready to give common men visit visa now. Most people that were given abused the system and are claiming Asylum.

I dispute your thought that it's hustlers who are migrating. How many hustlers can have 25m in their bank account for vacation, show they have strong business or work ties in Nigeria. It's the people who have that are leaving in drones or the hustlers who have...I mean that can invest millions.

Even some of us with spouse studying in Canada who have spent tens of millions in tuition and living expenses are finding it difficult to get visitor visa to visit our student spouse.

clayfounder:


With all these requirements you listed, if I am well-established in Nigeria, owning a viable business or working in a high-profile company or role, I would be crazy/foolish to be thinking of japa to Canada. It’s mostly hustlers who seek to japa. Please suggest something more realistic because your requirements seem too extravagant for a common man!!!

You will not understand now, bookmark this comment and revisit in the next 10 years...allow 9ja politicians to decide the future of your family at your detriment.

Oga,l dnt know for you, as for me if l have a good job and business in nigeria ,am not going anyway to enslave myself working like a donkey abroad.l talk to my friend in london and he complain of how things be but he no get choice na to keep doing his factory job nd l pray he no drop dead due to high blood pressure but poor man no get alternative.GOd help us

That's you...the people japaaing most are top staff of Nigerian elites company.

There is a community of mtn Nigeria ex staff in Canada. Dey play.

If you don't have a very high profile they consider you a refugee seeking risk.

You must be talking about IRCC application expiration if I should understand you well and not Canada visit visa issuance expiration.

Just delete all and start with everyone afresh since you didn't submit the applications. This may help you review your circumstance afresh and make the application more effective.

You can delete a created account as many times and create back.

larrybam:
Good evening everyone. Please I have a question. Last year, we applied for canada visitor visa as a family using my husband's ircc account. My visa has expired while my husband and daughter's own are still valid. Can I still use my husband's account go reapply or I create my own account? Thank you.

You are getting wrong. Was Chidinma an adult when it happened that should account for identity theft? The case against Chidinma is Dead On Arrival.

ednut1:
Nawa. But lets be honest here if a Nigerian with South Africa origin was found to have used fake documents to get Nigerian citizenship. Same treatment would be meted on her.

Be well established in your country. Own a viable business or be working in high profile company and role where you can show proof.

Have decent money in your bank account which can be proof beyond doubt. Have family members like wife, parents or siblings who you re responsible to and then have properties and investments. And then have involvement in church or any reputable social group.

At least travel to Egypt, Kenya and SA.

Ghana and Benin Republic are way to cheap.

clayfounder:

With the alarming high rate of canada visa refusal now.what will you advice a person that want to reapply and have no usa,shengen,uk or australia visa becos one of my friend reappply and added more money and more document and they still refuse him and he lose money again but an agent suggest if l can go togo,benin or ghana like weekly for 6 weeks,then reapply it will help and increase my chances as a frequent traveller with travel history .am just worried to lose money in this reapply.what do you suggest?

If those children had murdered your son or daughter, would you also clamour for there release?

There is a reason there is consequences for crime, to check impunity.

We can only ask that they re punished as juveniles for the younger ones.

They looted and burnt computers and others. Is that part of protest?

iamtoofan:



you can keep decieving yourselves ... we all at the recieving end of bad governance, if you escape your family might not


Those children are innocent, posterity will serve each one of them.

If these kids were to kill our relatives, how many of us here will clamour for there release?

We like judging from a point where we are not affected but if the tides change you will see there judgement change too.

The clamour should not be pardon but punishment of a juvenile.

If there are no consequences for crime, it will only create impunity and more crimes.

This is bitterness taken even too far. How can she be liable for a supposed crime that happened when she was just a baby? Petition is Dead on Arrival (DoA), it can't fly. It's even a stupid NGO championing the nonsense not even SA Govt because the SA Govt knows the petition can't fly.

No need, we are a more matured country. Those companies employ our people.

I hope it is any of USA, Shenghen, Australia or UK that you travelled to and returned back within immigration provisions else you don't have any.

NowisGod109:


Lol
I get one

Why are South Africans so bitter a people? The blacks especially. You gave many Nigerians scholarship to do Masters and PhD and when it was time for them to give back to your country you deny them of PR to work. They always complain of people taking their women and work when they don't have academic qualifications.

Most of these guys you gave scholarship (including my spouse) have relocated to Canada, US, UK, Australia and Europe. SA lost resources that should be contributing to research work that will better her country.

Even the whites SA are leaving in drones to UK and Europe.

Hatefulness kills. Soonest you will be fighting against yourself when there is no more common enemies to fight. Tueh.

Thanks, a lot has changed recently then with the intro of PAL. Thanks.

I believe you are an educated individual who can read and write. You don’t need a YouTuber looking for followers to interpret a simple instruction for you, especially since most of them are not immigration lawyers. You can apply for a student visa from within Canada on a visitor visa. You simply select 'No' to those conditions, and it allows you to apply from inside Canada. I have seen someone apply and get approved, and another get rejected, with the rejected applicant regretting it because they ended up spending much more than if they had applied from outside Canada. So personally, I don’t encourage it, as not all applications are approved. However, as of today, you can apply for a student visa while in Canada on a visitor visa if you have your Letter of Enrollment (LOE), (PAL), and proof of funds (POF), though approval is not guaranteed!!

You meant top 30 comedian?

viqSmallz:
Nice one for Lookma, I expect Victor Boniface to make top 30 in 2025

I think the second you circle red, is after any of the first condition above has been met e.g having a spouse who has work or study permits, completion of a prerequisite course for a full-time DLI etc. Chokor Millonaire has even done a youtube video on it. Countries used it to control student immigration to their countries just like Canada's LMIA work permit application that is now mandatory to be from outside country. Some countries do not even allow you to convert your visit visa to a study visa, you have to apply from outside country. You can even try applying through the link asa a tes, you will see if any of the condition above does not apply it will tell you...you dont qualify for a study permit from in-country. You can practicalize the process as a test.

The person involved can consult more maybe an immigration consultant cos its really tiring going through this application ONLY to find out you didn't meet the conditions.

I used to think the condition is same until recently. Canadian immigration law encourages intending Intl students who wish to apply for Study Permit to apply from outside Canada except they meet certain requirements/conditions aside the regular requirement of the general study permit application. See link and attachment below.

Yes, if you receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residency under Express Entry while in Canada on a visitor visa, you can complete the application process from within Canada without needing to return to Nigeria. Once you receive the ITA, follow the necessary steps, submit your documents, and proceed with your PR application. However, you must avoid overstaying your visitor visa unless you apply for an extension.

As for studying in Canada, applying for a study permit while in canada as a visitor visa holder, has the same requirements whether you’re applying from inside or outside Canada. You’ll need to provide a Letter of Acceptance (LOA), Proof of Funds (POF), PAL and a medical test, which can be more expensive within Canada. Also, remember there’s no guarantee of approval or rejection. When choosing a school, try to avoid institutions that don’t offer a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) to keep your options open.

Correct.

In addition, diversify by getting certified in other skills like Cook / Care giver to position yourself in the hospitality / Health industry since every African mother or woman is both a care giver and a cook by default.

Given the current numbers and situation, obtaining PR will be a matter of survival of the fittest, as competition is intense. Many students currently in Canada may not secure PR after investing so much money and accumulating debt. I would advise any student to start learning French as an additional skill to gain an advantage, as the path to PR has become very narrow

It's still not going to be an easy path for Temporary Residents. Reason they introduced measures like English Test and many province are shutting down Intl school completion route or modifying it to Only Masters or with 2 year Diploma courses in long term shortage labour.

As it is Canada is not for the faint hearted. Being a student or worker is not automatic to PR.

ednut1:
in summary 240k slots for over 3m temporary residents 🤭. IRCC should keep deceiving themselves lol

If you are already in Canada as Temporary Resident (Student or Worker) or will soon be joining a spouse as student or worker, then good news.

The cut down of PR will favour those already in Canada as Temporary Resident.

Canada Experience Class and Provincial Nominations for residents (in-country) will be prioritized for PR than out-country migrant.

Thank God for social media and most of our guys would have roam their data service, if not we would not have seen their despicable act.

They will never try this with a Nigerian team either club or country.

Long overdue.
