El oh el

You must chop your first winter "carless".
You can not drive until you pass a road test after one year. You can start studying for your class 7 learners so that you can take the test as soon as you land.
You should be driving next year May

Send a pM if you want the study material...Alberta o!

Good day people.
So for people that never got a driver's license in Nigeria, what is the procedure like to start driving in Canada? Should I just go ahead and get one done since I am landing in May?
Will I be able to just take the driving test and how soon Will it be possible to start driving?
I am looking to getting a car in winter.
Thank you

Thanks, when they asked for your address, where did you say you were calling from cos I read online that they only take calls from applicants in Canada.

That is not true at all.
Call them at 12:55pm Nigerian time, follow the voice prompt and wait to talk to an agent.
The wanted my address which of course is the address on my application.
Have all the information you used in your application handy. Mostly your full name, address, application and uci number, date of birth.

pejuhazel:
Did they ask where you're calling from and if they did did you say Nigeria?

They asked what they could do for me and I said I wanted to find out about my application and then they asked different questions like my address, application number etc.
I have called them 3xs and each time, it was a different set of question.
Just call them with your application information and questions ready

Each province in Canada has its own rules and regulations when it comes to getting a driver license.

Maybe you should start by telling the forum where in Canada are you planning to live.

Thanks again.
Another question please.
The diploma in law and some other departments have been scraped in uniben due to the crowd according to her friend living in Benin.
I don't know much about WES as I used PEBC.
Would it pose a problem? We are trying to know if she should even go to Benin for the processing.
Thanks for your help so far.

Ifeoma77:
1. Since we've established that your wife has work experience, this option is no longer necessary. Make her the PA.
2. That's great, she should ensure that both workplaces provide reference letters. Also, if she can get another teaching job to make it up to 3 years, it would be awesome. It doesn't matter that the work experience is not related to her degree.
I also want to clarify, is the diploma part of the BSc? As in, did she use the diploma to gain direct entry admission? Because if that's the case, the ECA might come out as Bachelor's and not 2 or more certificates.
4. Absolutely

Thank you for this ifeoma
My sister has a diploma in law from the university of Benin. And went on to study in lead city university on a fresh note. Do you think it will be counted as a 2 or more certificate?

Hey guys, if I have 6000 US dollars + 1.7 million naira, do you think is it enough for POF for a single person?
I have done my calculations, but I need you to confirm/advise.

Yes. It is enough

Sure u will get d PPR beforeJune? If not sure, I think u can apply

Thank you. I am honestly saying that with faith. My AOR is December 31st.

Also, when one is granted this kind of visa, for how long is the visa normally for if granted? Will it be up to 6 months and will I have to leave the country when PPT comes to finalise issues? I am asking because flight fares don't come cheap at all. And if I don't write the exam this June, n.a. till January and babes ain't getting any younger.

Good day all.

I have a licensing exam(phatmacy) by June and the

website says international graduates of pharmacy can

apply and will be given a letter as it pertains visa. I am

also awaiting PPR(express entry) and believe I will get

it before June. Please what are my chances?

I am 30, single, i just resumed work in a pharmacy and

my salary is 250k. I was without a job for 3 months

and I have 10k USD

in my account as POF from express entry application.

Zero travel history or visa refusal.

I can only write the exam in Canada or London.

Please help me.

Can a diploma in law be seen as a different certificate? It was post secondary and pre bsc. It wasn’t used to gain admission. She went ahead to study a different course for BSC

Pls how should I go about it and hope my grade will not affect my chance of getting a student visa
If it permanent visa, wat requirements will I need?
Will be looking forward to your reply

Go for permanent residence. It will make studying cheaper and it’s easy to get if you have all the requirements. It’s very straightforward. Go to page 1.
