How long is the reservation valid for? I tried holding a reservation with Ethiopian airlines but the reservation is only valid for 2 days.
Which won't be valid anymore if VO is reviewing application.

It is usually 2days, that is why I said you should do the reservation a day before you submit the application. If possible it can be the last thing to do before submitting your application. The validity at the point of application is what they look at, and not after the application is made.

Hi Passe,
Congratulations on your mom's Visa! I am a student in Alberta and I will be convocating in June. I want to apply for my mum to attend my convocation. I have gone through the documents required online but I am having a hard time with the requirement of flight itinerary. How do I get a flight itinerary without having to pay for booking the flight because is not advisable to book a flight when Visa is yet to be approved right? Please I will appreciate any guidance, thanks!

Just go to the KLM website, do the reservations and at the point of making payment, select pay at KLM office. This allows you to get the flight itinerary sent to your mail. That way you don't have to make payment. It is usually advisable to do this a day before your application so that it will still be valid at the point of submitting your application. The whole idea behind the itinerary is that they want to make sure that you kmow the cost of ait ticket and that you have also included it in your financial provision for the intended trip.

I want to use this opportunity to encourage others. I have been begging my mom for the past 5years to come and pay us a visit in Canada, she wouldn't give in......fast forward to October last year,She agreed and was ready to visit Canada but told me that she won't spend more than 3 weeks. Below are the applications timelines;

1.Invitation & sponsorship letter for self

4.Paycheck from my wife for 6months
5.Statement of account for self for 6 months

Don't you think your inability to obey simple laid down rules in this forum tells a lot about the kind of services you will eventually offer to your "supposedly"potential clients? Several people have warned you at various times,yet you still exhibit this unwarranted attitude. Please do note that many people may not say anything about your behaviour here but you have however lost most of them,as a result of your persistent non-compliance of a simple rule.

You can't give what you don't have anyway.

Please kindly calm down and don"t be quick to judge people you don't know one on one.
Kindly go through his moniker and check through his post,perhaps it will let you know that you are not better than the person yor are already condemning financially and otherwise.

We that are constantly on property sections know where most people like him and others and have invested heavily and moving forward.

By the way,who told you that other people here are not sending more than your $1200 monthly to their Niaja accounts?

That is why i rarely comment here.The next thing you see now is insults here and there.Just for saying the truth.

@Oluwapelumni87

For some personal reasons,I only read and appreciate the contributions of members of the forum. I don't usually get involve on issues personally to avoid unwarranted issues on a faceless forum, I am not someone who who likes to make assumption on people I have not met in person.What works for someone in a particular province in Canada may not work for the best of brains in that particular province. So the idea that Toronto is not a city where one can make it is a total fallacy that can only be made by Nigerians.

If you can make it in Nigeria and Europe, you will make it anywhere in the world.It is all mindset. Please don't allow anyone to tell you that you can't make it in Toronto. If for any reason, you decide to move to another province on your own accord,that is fine by me. I have gotten offers from the same Alberta and refused them,yet I have still survive Toronto till date.We are all products of our imaginations,which sets our limits and otherwise.
I have worked in Financial services in Nigeria,UK and recently in Canada(with Scotia Bank) and still ended up dumping the Financial services job and acquired education on a "Recession Proof field", where I am presently working and also doing my business along side.

If you are business minded,you will make millions of Money out out of nothing In Toronto, based on your ability to see things others don't see.

Please try and PM me........you should be able to start something within the next 6weeks after few days training ,which csn give you financial stability to get your desired job afterwards.

Many thanks.

Here you go Sir.

Most likely going to wrap a major part of the house in same profile but in silver.

Lessons learnt: give the total job to one outfit to remove fingerpointing. Definitely going to give the main house roof job to one of the Lagos top dogs on here. No room for error.

Hi Sir,if you don't mind! Could you please share the source and price for the long span aluminium? You may share same with me @ wallex032003@yahoo.co.uk

agarawu23:
e go pain me if you know gv Oga gbadexy your job after all these your questions.

I have seen his jobs.To benefit from his good paint productions,It will only be wise of me to patronise him sir.He has a recommendation from someone that is highly respected in this forum.

Regards.

gbadexy:
2 and half drums of textcoat for each sitting room. 10 drums for the 4 living rooms.
The rooms would require 4 gallons of emulsion each. I don't know the total number.
Make 3 gallons for the passage. A gallon of matte emulsion for the kitchen and bathroom per flat, bearing in mind they are semi tiled.
The number of rooms would determine the total white required for ceiling.
Textured paint for interior is old school.
People look to make statement with the living room.
I'm certain you have your reasons though.

God blessings sir. You are on point sir.Your professional opinion well respected.What will be a pocket friendly paint to be used for the sitting rooms sir.The property is purely for rented purposes and I am also working on strict budget.Each of the units is 3 bed rooms all ensuite.Kindly help to estimate the total no of white paint required for the ground floor deck painting.The ceiling will not be painted as I will be using PVC Ceiling.

gbadexy:
18 drums for the building, 10 drums for the fence.
I could give you a good quality textcoat for N6500 per drum.

Most appreciated sir.

And finally,what will be the Textcoat quantity requirements for 4 sitting rooms,each sitting rooms having a dimension of 16 by 24,rooms are 12 x 12 and Kitchen is 12 x 9.what other information do you need from me? Just need you to furnish me with the internal paint quantities for the building,given all the information above.

In summary, all 4 sittings will be high quality Textcoat,while every other internal area will be high quality emulsion,apart from kitchen and wash rooms(Toilet and bathroom).

I need no of drums for Textcoat for the 4sitting rooms, emlusion for all the internal areas and is it gloss or so for the kitchean walls,paint for bath rooms and toilets.Do consider that there are tiles in d kitchen,tiolets and bathrooms when estimating d quantities of paints required sir.

gbadexy:
Texcoat too can be very durable when done in very good grade.
It's really a tough comparison, bearing in mind that there are houses painted with textcoat over 15 years and is still good.

What quantities of Tescoat will be required to achieve all the exterior painting highlighted above and the fence walls inclusive?What is your best price for drums of Tescoat?

I will call you soon sir.All the information provide so far have been so helpful and will go a long way in helping me in my financial planning and budget for this work.

Sincere Regards

gbadexy:
The next best would be matte emulsion and you would require 18 drums total.
A drum is N14000.
It's a low sheen paint that is weather proof.

Many thanks for your timely response. Is the Mate emulsion better than tescoat?

gbadexy:
Graffitex expectedly requires much higher quantity due to the low spread.
I will give you a drum for N6500 though.
Are you applying it for the outside of the fence round or just the front.

It will be the internal walls of the fence only.The only external wall will be the front of the fence(Note there will be 2 standard gates at the build,at both ends).

If I may ask sir,if I decide to go for a cheaper option to grafittex,which other paint may last long but still stand d taste of time like d graffitex,and what will be d quantities required to paint all d exterior and fence.given my explanations above.

gbadexy:
54 drums.
I can recommend painters that can apply it satisfactorily.
The quantity given is based on the dimension provided. I didn't include the fence.

How many more drums will serve for a fence of 10 coaches of block on a 60 by 120 plot of land? I want to avoid a situation whereby the supplied paint may not be enough for the job when painting commences. what is the best rate it will cost me to pay for each drum of graffittex ,given to the nos required sir?

KolaShangOne:
Let's discuss your roof plan

Oga Kola,

Good job you are doing here sir. I have personally benefited a lot from thus thread. Could you please provide me with your email address? or you send me a blank message with the subject heading as" NL" to wallex032003@yahoo.co.uk,I need to get some clarifications from you sir.

Sinecere regards.

gbadexy:
They are silver grey and a shade of pink. They are off a chart with some fancy names.
You can't use traditional satin for outside but you can use something close to it with modification to adapt for exterior use.

Please what is the estimated no of drums that will be required to paint exterior of a building with a dimension of 27m by 11.8m(88ft by 38ft) using graffitex paint.Please do also consider the walls of the fence should will be painted with graffitex.I am considering using you for my project very soon.Can you guarantee that your painter will do d job when needed to avoid getting a bad finishing?

Please note that the building is a 4 units of 3 bed room flat ensuite.

abdulwastecx:
You have a good point sir... But you are still talking about the causes.

Let look at for an individual developer planning to build a house in this high prone area, what method of construction would you advice to save the building during time high flooding ?

I would suggest that all building in this area should come with a basement, where the ground floor serve as car garage and the first living space is raised at least 3m above the Natural ground level. During flooding period, nothing will happen with your properties inside the house.

The ground floor with only columns will support the first living space. These columns will be designed as unbraced column, with water resistance paint to protect them against constant contact with water.

Hi Abdul,I sent you an email ealier today. I will appreciate it if you can spare few minutes out of your tight schedule to respond to it. Regards

Nihilist:
Is 5m the cost of labour? Or does that include building materials as well?

I find it extremely difficult to believe that a house can be put together for 5m

You just have to get yourself more informed about building processes through the property session on NL and you will soon realize that it is doable.

In addition,many people work with the illusion that they need to have Millions in their account before they can build their dream home.You have to take the bull by the horn and start somewhere.The first step is acquiring land that is free from any government encumbrance.

Best wishes.
