Good morning my people,
I am seeing people saying visa to Rwanda is free, but I did an e visa online which cost me close to $300! I am confused; hope I wasn’t scammed online. Yet to visit Rwanda



So sad to hear this from you and unfortunately you have been scammed.

Nigerian passport holder can enter Rwanda for free for 30days

He or she (hola55) might be right that the charges are not for first timer.

But he was wrong on the part where he said the fee was introduced newly.

Anyway, anyone who is going for passport submission should go with package transmission fee to avoid any issues.

Yes @Hola55 was right.

It's mandatory to pay for transmission fee if your biometric capturing was not recent.

The fee will only be waived if it's a recent biometric with recent application.

Hi guys, please do someone need a transit visa while transiting from Nigeria to Doha and then to Canada using Qartar airways?

Asking for a friend please.

Thank you for your response.

No.
Transit visa not required for this route

An application that is being reviewed cannot be withdrawn.

Imagine such adviced from SkyView.
Application that as been reviewed with PFL.

Withdrawing that application at this point automatically gives the officer more confidence that the bank statement is fake.

The note the officer will leave on that UCI will be very difficult to even get approval in the nearest future after the 5yrs ban

Longest time Oga Ema, thanks for the swift response.


The account is a tier 3 account nd all KYC is completed oo. Infact it has unlimited deposit capacity but the problem is this lower limit transfer of #100,000 per day. Av called gtbank customer care tire nd I even went to their branch to either change from ussd code to pin to enable me enjoy limitless transfer, all not possible not even hardware token available.

Am stucked right now because I need to move the money out of gtbank as soon as possible nd if am to do it @100k daily, from now till December am still on it.

I regret using gtbank for large sum oo. Am a STANBIC user nd I never encounter this type of problem ever.

This is strange to me.
I'm also using gtb mobile app and I can transfer up to 5m daily if need be.

Seems like you did not upgrade your daily limit

Hello everyone
Please has anyone here with visitor visa status in Canada successfully applied for a study permit while in Canada? A family relative is in a dilemma because she was denied study permit while here in Canada based on insufficient funds and that the purpose of visit is not consistent with a temporary stay based on what she provided in her application. Please note that she had paid the full tuition fee for the one year program plus approx N10M in her account.

One other thing is that she stated her Nigerian address as her residence but someone said she should have used her current address in Canada. The reason she did that was because of the belief that she is not eligible to apply for study permit from inside Canada. Note that she is still within her 6month validity as a visitor.

Must she go back to Nigeria to reapply? We can address the financial concerns raised, it's just navigating this issue on a visitor status that is our main concern. Her husband and kids are back in Nigeria and are worried as well.

Thanks

I would say it is very risky to reapply while in Canada because staying too long on that visit visa is not safe, what if the second application was rejected..... And the 6months is already near, to reenter Canada will be tough!
To even get approval on the student visa will be tough also.

I would suggest she exit Canada immediately and run the student visa from Nigeria.

That Canada visit visa will even be a plus for her.....

On own humble opinion o, not necessary mean she should follow suit

Plz avoid egyp.t air o, i heard from a reliable source that transited through egyp.t air to canada that their immigration do chase people back home at egyp.t sometimes.


Yes they do extra check on passengers and if all your documents are complete and genuine, there's nothing to be worried about.
They have no right to send someone back if everything is ok

Good morning guys! I submitted my passport at VFS Lagos, but below was the information I got when I used the tracking ID to track it. Although, I haven’t receive collection email yet, but my surprise is that the passport is in Abuja. Is this normal?

“The decision envelope for your application, tracking ID No. 2xxxxxx has been received from the IRCC Office on 2023/xxxx at the Canada Visa Application Centre, Abuja and is ready for collection. Your decision envelope will be returned to you via the courier service offered by the VAC.”

You will receive another email later today or tomorrow stating that your passport is ready for collection at Lagos application centre.

Hi everyone. I am supposed to travel to London Ontario for May Intake. I have a few questions and I would really love for someone to attend to me.

First of all, what airline is best for a trip from Lagos to Ontario. Someone adviced me to use AirFrance but the reviews I have seen Nigerians give online is frightening. From things like missing luggage to refusal to board due to a lack of return ticket. Qatar airways is outrageously expensive.

Secondly, which of the airports in Ontario should I choose. I keep seeing acronyms like YYZ, YTZ and YTO. Thank you.

Choose YYZ Pearson international.

For the ticket, check Egyptair/Turkish air

The best thing is to look for opportunities on how to make money from the situation whether it goes up or down.

The people that have the power to make naira to gain value do not care.

Oga I fit tell u 1 or 2 things wey una fit do. This canada visa no hard as people dey see am, I'm not an agent and I won't ask anyone 1 kobo. But for now canada is a bit of struggle because to get a job these days no easy I have been here for 4 months on student visa and never get a job and I have my hommie boy we got here together who is doing 2 jobs now. The truth is, if you be Street I mean one that can endure and have cash to survive for some times till u get a job, yes u can come to canada but if not, I go advise u stay back home. I never see work and I don spend cash over 3k self. Whatever u wanna know about d student processing routes ask me. I don't know about getting an admission ooo, but when u get ur LOA I can advise u on documentation n SOP.

But there is survival/menial job everywhere in Ontario.
Warehouse, bakery etc thou it's tough no doubt.

Chief we are still far off o. We never even reach sub 900. It is my prayer that I comes down to 700 and remains stable there. The instability of naira is not beneficial to anyone because it makes planning and projection very difficult

Naira might not be stable this year no doubt but I'm sure of next year, by February... I believe we will have a stronger naira!

Dollar will still rise a lil bit soon but by mid next year, it will stable at 750 or so.

The man with the $1 equals ₦700 hypothesis has come again cheesy

Since the time you claimed the true value of naira is ₦700, the value of naira has gone down by 30%

Yes the rate is really high at this time and it appear like it is risky to buy now. Nonetheless, any pull back will only put the rate at around 1k. Even if you buy at 1200, chances of making a loss in 6 months time is very slim. there is a high chance dollar will exchange for 1600 in six month times

Without obvious cuts in cost of governance, naira is not going to appreciate. Bulaba and his crew to still went to the US to waste $500k not too long ago, even when the country is cash strap.
That's the one we hear of, what of other frivolous spending we don't get to hear of

Oga

I predicted 700/USD

Are we not getting close?

What do you have to say now 😊
