Travel / Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 18 by oluwabishop: 11:04pm On Apr 13, 2021 |
good day all. Thanks to everyone for sharing useful information. please I have a question about nature of flight ticket. Are there any concerns about a student going for a one year program and booked a one-way ticket? does this affect the issue of study permit by the CBSA officer at the airport? Please, if there are any persons who recently landed from last year till now, kindly share your airport experiences, or if there were questions concerning one-way ticket for a one year program. Also, those who did the mandatory 3 nights quarantine, kindly share your experiences from booking to payment and what the stay was like This can be very helpful. 1 Like |

dishydens: Use CIBC, it will take between 7-10 business days. You fill the form A with your bank and they will move the funds to CIBC who will in turn confirm the payment and settle same into the school account, after which your payment will reflect on your account with the school. 1 Like |

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) invited you to apply for permanent resident status based on the qualifications you claimed in your Express Entry profile. In your Express Entry profile you indicated you had a relative in Canada who was a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident but have filed to provide sufficient proof of the relationship. This change in your qualifications resulted in a loss of points that brought your rank below the lowest ranking person who was invited to apply in your round of invitation, under the Express Entry Comprehensive Ranking System. As I have found that you no longer possess the qualification on the basis of which you were ranked under an instruction given under paragraph 10.3(1)(h), you no longer meet the requirements of Section 11.2 of Act. Following an examination of your application, I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of the Act and Regulations for the reasons explained above. I am therefore refusing your application. cutiep: |

Good Morning all. Some couple of questions, input needed from experienced views. 1- application refused 6 months post-AOR. Reason- 'failed to prove sibling relationship, hence lost points for the round of ITA at the time of draw'. No ADR was requested, hence no idea nor opportunity to rectify the misrepresentation. there was a clerical error in naming on sibling's birth cert, but every other documents had the appropriate representation of names. Took a month after the refusal letter(was out of state/town) to gather further evidences of sibling relationship, raised CSE, and sent email seeking for reconsideration. Been some days now but no feedback yet on any of these. Any suggestions on an alternative/efficient approach? 2- created a new profile and answered YES to the questions about - 'previous applications to IRCC', 'previously applied to EE', and provided the EE application number and UCI from the former/refused application. Does this qualify for the category of Schedule A/as having being denied visa before? will the refusal (letter) feature in completing the new application? 3- with the new profile and back in the pool awaiting draws/ITA, need to know which of the previously obtained 'requred documents' will still be admissible/valid for the 2nd application. Is there need to repeat any of these - WES, IELTS, PCC, Medicals, Biometrics, etc ? concerned about medicals, if it has to be repeated, how advisable is it to seek an appointment even without having ITA yet? bearing in mind the length of waiting period for PPR, and the fact that one needs to Land in Canada before the medicals expires ? looking forward to helpful reponses. Cheers Everyone 1 Like |

temifox: If you had informed the landlord that you will do the repairs with your own money, then you need to furnish him with the receipts of every expenses including the labor (be honest in the receipts and avoid bloated amounts, landlords still know the costs of materials and labor and can verify). Then ask him to allow you stay for the pro-rated period of time that the amount you spent on the expenses covers. Since you have intentions to move out. You can also get help from a lawyer if you have any Grey areas |

Edimpaul: This advice, along with the other advice to negotiate with the landlord for a pro-rated rent of one month for the period of January, are the best responses to the OP I've seen so far. Because they're guided within the law. Wisdom is profitable to direct, and he who has ears, let him hear. The landlord as I see it, is simply playing within the provisions of the law by serving formal reminder notices ahead of time because by the expected expiration date, tenant isn't expected to have any extra day in his property for free and can't claim that he hasn't been adequately reminded. Being a lawyer doesn't mean that he'll bully his tenants anyhow because they can easily find a counsel to represent their interests. Even if the tenant could not afford legal services, they could be lucky to have their case handled as pro-bono. And if the landlord were to be in violation of any laws, his position as a landlord and his practice as a lawyer would be disgraced. 4 Likes |

mfm04622: The imaginary 3 months is coming from the fantasies of those who haven't bothered to read the details of the so called tenancy laws they are always quick to reference. They dwell and reign in their ignorance until they are lawfully evicted within the proper interpretation and provisions of the same tenancy law, then they repeat the anthem - 'All landlords are wicked' 2 Likes |

If it's brand new, go for it but confirm that it is original by checking for the engraving of the name on the engine block and coil casing. If it's fairly used, do ask a generator technician to help you verify the engine and coil conditions. Yes it sounds nice, but your own story will be drafted by how you pay attention to its maintenance. nonny400: 1 Like |
Car Talk / Re: Moment Of Truth: Which Of These Throwback Cars Did Your Family Have? by oluwabishop: 9:16am On Feb 28, 2017 |
We had A, B, C and Volkswagen Santana. (there was also a Volkswagen Vanagon bus) A' was dad's ride in his youth, C was bought during the build up to his wedding, B was his gift to mum after wedding (for a special reason and virtue he only discovered after the wedding), And the Volkswagen Santana came when A was shipped out. The Vanagon was used for business runs. I still love Peugeot 505 as a Vintage. Maybe someday I'll be speaking with Ikenna351 about it 1 Like |

"Generally I will raise this once at the beginning of the interview and if you are within the range for the role we can move on and talk about other things" So if the candidate isn't within the range the interviewers expects, what happened to benefit of doubt and probably negotiating along the range, albeit succinctly? Or a candidate simply loses the chance because they don't know what their interviewer has in mind as a particular range of salary expectations? Mind you that in Nigeria, making enquiries about salary of a role is difficult. Staff aren't forthcoming with the actual facts. 3 Likes |
Family / Re: How To Deal With A Workaholic Man by oluwabishop: 1:55pm On Dec 17, 2016 |
Dear OP, kindly permit me to point out corrections. There is no proper adjective called 'workphobic' or an English word called 'workphobia' in the context used above. If you are talking about a person who loves and indulge in their work so much, they are called "workaholic". Besides, the word/suffix 'phobia', for absolute clarity, translates to mean a fear of something. Hence the etymological meaning of your new word 'workphobic' would be a person who fears /hate their job. And this does not apply to the context of your passage. A high sounding word isn't always correct. 1 Like |

I usually pass on any Linda ikeji topics, but this one... She's contradicting herself. I remember when she said that with all her money, she can buy any man of her choice? Why is she still praying for a man when she should be out there shopping for one? After all these years of badmouthing her people's customs about marriage and it's importance in a woman's life, she's back to her senses bah. When some of her mates /contemporaries are enrolling kids in JSS 1 today. Lessons learned - not every rubbish the west brings that we should copy hook, line and sinker, even campaigning about it more than those westerners whose culture it is. When it comes to feminism and the whole women's rights and equality, ladies should know which aspects of it to advocate for and which aspects of it they should concede to their native cultures. Now that Aunty Linda is praying for a good man, bad guys out there would ridicule her to scorn while taking turns to try and play games with her emotions. I simply wish her Goodluck, warris my own inside? 4 Likes 1 Share |

Apparently, nobody has posted something to show that they went there. Those who went may be keeping quiet and those who are expressing their opinions, majority of which are saying it's a scam/GNLD, haven't physically been to that address. How then can the question / confusion be properly cleared? Enough respect to everyone who knows a thing or two about them, but who has actually gone? The ones who said they'd gotten to the place, they didn't come back to write what they saw or experienced there. |

chronique: OK I get your point. Solid point too. But if I appear to be exonerating basketmouth, it's probably because he was operating within the latitudes of his self-boss status. He owns his brand and can mouth out any content at any mood or moment. The repercussions may come in the form of fans boycotting his shows till he publicly apologises. But Mr Freeze, he doesn't own himself at the time of making those posts about basketmouth. Remember this picture of the wife wasn't the first anyway. So if freeze were to express any opinions about him he should have considered how such opinion sits with his employers. Or he could do that when he's his own boss, through his own public address media, take nnamdi kanu for example and see how he released his corrosive views about Nigeria. Through his radio station |

chronique: Look at it from the business perspective of both brands. Basketmouth owns himself and can choose to speak anyhow on stage, some fans may not approve and he may apologise and move on with his entertainment. But freeze is an employee of cool FM, and they're regular organisers and promoters of entertainment shows. Basketmouth is one of their valuable business prospects and they won't like any sour relationship with him which is just what Freeze is instigating. Let's just say that Freeze is hampering future smooth transaction of business with Basketmouth and his colleagues in his circle of interest and Cool FM acted in solidarity with their business prospect. There are climes where your personal opinions and orientation can't ever be used to ascertain your relevance in your job, where there are stringent laws that can address the terms of your disengagement from employment and see if they're related to your terms of employment. An employee like freeze should have checked to know if he's in such a clime and if his management isn't concerned in any way about his various social media tantrums before going about freestyling like Piers Morgan. 3 Likes |

Mr Freeze knows he has a fractured relationship with Basketmouth stemming from his previous remarks about him, yet he felt so invincible and untouchable that he went ahead to post a picture of him cuddling the man's wife under the dumb caption of throwback pictures or family friendly whatever . If that isn't a sublime shade on Basketmouth, what is? Who send am? Quoting a lesson from Dominic Torreto in Fast and Furious "you can joke with a man in any capacity, but never ever attempt to play with a man's family" . That could get you in more trouble than you could ever swim out of. This move was long in coming for the man who feels he's a Lord of the social media space and can say anything about anyone and get away with it. The man may get into entrepreneurship or another offer elsewhere but nothing like his historic status with Cool FM and even if he gets reinstated, this will be a dent on his record. It should teach him a lesson or two on keeping certain unsolicited opinions to himself. Our forefathers were really wise when they said - "who the gods want to kill, they first make mad" 4 Likes |
