Hello seyewest,

So for domestic connection in US for international flights they will not check weight nor will they bill you extra when you buy your ticket from one airline. In my instance, i bought LOS - IAH from BA, so if they want to collabo with AA its their business, my own is that i am a BA international customer and all the luggage allowance for international travel applies to me till my final destination.
There was no stress along the way. Everyone understood the rules. To be honest, i was worried about the domestic leg of the trip, as i know US domestic airlines have very limited baggage allowance.

Anyways lets see how the return leg plays out.
It will go the same way of the first leg.

A person with legit intent has nothing to fear, my brother entered through JFK going to Seattle no issue whatsoever at the POE. Only the guilty have something to be afraid of.

You can as long it is the same type of conference.

Is it only through VFS that one can apply for the French visa. Also is flight booking compulsory.

Hello House. I need your assistance. My spouse was busy with studies when my child and I visited US and Canada for Vacation in 2016. Although,my spouse now has valid US visa but hasn't travelled with it, been to UAE and Ghana. We plan to go to Canada on vacation this year in end of July. I earn more so will include my financial statement with that of my spouse.
Meanwhile my spouse's passport will expire March 2019.
When I checked visitor's processing time it was 31days so I believe there is still time for my spouse to apply for visitor's this may.

My questions are:
1. Is it necessary unconfirmed air ticket is included in my spouse's application?
2. Will travel insurance for their whole family be required?
3.What will be compelling to put up as a motivation in the statement of purpose if required.
I welcome everyone's input as the application will be submitted next week.
1and 2 are not necessary, I didn't submit such.

My God. You don't need to insult me. I only asked you a very simple question that i don't understand. I did not accuse you of anything in the above. Take it easy Ok, you don't need to take it personal. I want to know more about it and that was why i asked before you to explain more info about it. Read my post again i even thanked you at the end of my post. Chai.. Is it now a crime now to learn and know more details about something from other people? Nawa for some people sha! Heyyyyyy oga oooo! Smh.
Read well, i only posted the OP response to an earlier inquiry to how he got 10 years. Its not an insult.

There is something I don't understand. I note that US visa B1/B2" reciprocity for Nigerian Passport is 24months (2 years, validity) irrespective of your country of residence.

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Nigeria.html

So how come across US issued you 10 years B1/B2 visa? Can explain better or you mean they have changed it? Thanks

gentleiphy:


Please check my handle bro,I live in Canada,and the 4 months you saw was 4 months arriving Canada as a permanent resident.Not every body has a crooked story like you..take time to search my handle name here in all Canada discuss and then you will know better,you can as well read from page 1 of this same thread and you will know better...also take time to visit the Permanent resident thread of 2013 and then you will know me better. if 10yrs US visit visa to Nigerians in Canada to you is new then you know nothing.

I actually had this question in mind too, would be nice if someone with experience could answer... Thanks!
depends on the validity period on your passport. So if you have one year validity you get one year visa and if it's five year validity you get five years visa, that's the maximum Nigerians can get.

Thanks Olumig.

Does she need to wait for another e-mail specifically saying "come and collect your passport" before going to VFS?
You can track your application on the VFS platform to know the status.

Hello

Please I applied for a TRV for my mum and she got this e-mail last week.

"We would like to inform you that your processed passport has been dispatched from the Canada Visa Office, on 03 May 2018 to the Canada Visa Application Centre."

Please can anybody assist to explain what this e-mail means?

Thankss
Simply means come and collect your passport, but you wont know the decision until you collect your passport.

Omooba77:
It is common these days to see people making mockery of men of God due to one thing or the other. If you know the Bible; even when a man of God err, it is not appropriate for people to speak ill of them. Rather pray for them and leave them to God for judgement.
We can all learn from 2 Kings 2:23-25. Have a blessed Sunday.
But Paul rebuked Peter when he did wrong.

Gurus in the house. Please a quick question. Applied for visiting visa to Canada via paper on May 5th and got an email yesterday that “your processed passport is ready for collection”.

Please what does this mean. Denial or successful. I guess I shouldn’t expect a medical email since it’s visiting but will they send me an email if it is approved?

Help me Gurus.
