Bro, how did you get accommodation?

I have been living in Toronto for a few years now. I'm reaching out on behalf of my sister.

Is there anyone here leaving Lagos for Toronto on July 27 via Egypt Air? If so, I would like to connect.

Thanks

Hi,

After submission, how long does it typically take to get back one’s passport from VFS LAGOS?

Thanks

navidennis:
Did they inform her on when it would be uploaded?. I should have used qlife

They said 7 - 10 business days.

navidennis:
Can't seem to login in to my profile. It's currently on maintenance

My sister did hers on the 2nd of June at IOM Ikeja, and no update yet. After calling them on several occasions, they told her the result is not ready yet, and her deadline is on June 16.

Glock22:
The E-medical form they gave you

Thanks. I really don’t know much about this stuff. I’m asking on behalf of my sister. She said there was no form given to her upon completion of the medical exam.

Army2022:
Send your medical sheet to ircc through webform, they'll update it asap.

It wasn’t an upfront medical exam. What medical sheet are you referring to?

Hi guys,

How long does it take to get an update on one’s medical status? Medicals was done at IOM on June 2 upon request, and I’m still waiting for an update on my portal.

tenderjunkie:
Read back 5 pages

Thank you. I have done all what was suggested on those pages already. Despite sending them an email, they still haven’t been able booked a time for me. I have approximately 2 weeks left to get the medicals done.

Hi guys,

Please how do one make an appointment for medical exam? I tried to book online, but I was unable to create a schedule for the appointment. All attempts to reach out to them via the phone has been unsuccessful. I sent them an email with my passport photo page and necessary information, they still haven’t gotten back to me. IOM Ikeja.

Please what can I do?

I wonder how many strokes of cane I would have received for sleeping with foreigners if I was in her shoes.

“He didn’t bend his head.” What nonsense is this?

Tadeknkeepcalm:
Abeg shut up with your woke brain.


Would you support him if he was a pedophile?


Woke people should be rid off of nairaland. They should keep to twitter

This confirms that you’re a dimwit. What’s the correlation between homosexuality and pedophilia?

You don’t have to accept gay people, or even try to comprehend what we do behind closed doors, just f**king mind your business, and focus on how to make you life better.

The positive thing is that they are able to earn well. I met one that was working in first bank back in Nigeria and earning about 120k a month. Now she earns a little over 3.5k canadian dollars on the average working customer service after a lot of overtime. She is always stressed out sha. 3.5k is about 980k.
It looks like she is on course to save a lot of money before mid-year, and plans to visit Nigeria by July. She didn't tell me explicitly, but clearly she's going back to see how she can revive a few friendships back home that may lead to marriage. She is soooooo lonely. She cried sef. Eyah!

3.5K in Canada is actually small, especially if you live in cities like Vancouver, Montréal or Toronto. Her 120K in Nigeria can do much more than the 3.5K$ in Canada.

pulsa:
Are you guys still together?

Unfortunately, no.

I left the country with the intention of not coming back. We are still pretty in touch though.

Thank you!!! We are on our own, and we are fine.

cRobo:
They are on their own (O.Y.O)


I won't say a word

I’m surprised you had to delete what you typed earlier. I guess you didn’t read through the post well before you made that comment earlier. Does my lifestyle threaten you?

Bulletproof:
Na Gay you be?

Why can't I be?

nengibo:
Why are you gay

Yes, amongst every other thing.

Fountainofyouth:
I'm sorry are you gay?

Yes, I broke up with my boyfriend almost a year ago. He was the most amazing human I ever came across and still is. The reason why we broke up is still a bit vague to me (partly because, I was to leave the country and I felt he still had amazing years ahead of him), but I initiated it. I trusted him to the point that it never bothered me whenever he immediately snatches his phone from my hand; I never really had to bother about anything I find strange in his phone (not that I found any). He was loveable, caring, smart and the most handsome human I know.

After 4-5 months, we reconnected, and I have never experienced that level of pain in my life during the time we got talking. I was hurt that he wasn't mine anymore, and I could sense that he was hurt too. Each time we talk, I end up shedding a few drops of tears. I was almost acting like a maniac; stalking him on all his social media handles, connecting with the people that were his friends on social media, looking up each of his friend's bios, reading his diary on NL with the hope that he says he wants me back, or at least he misses me. I'm not the kind of guy who likes to express my emotions with him, and he never knew what I was going through at that point. I try to talk 'normal' and try to act like I care less about the whole situation. I was mad, I felt I was losing my mind and I had to see a psychologist. From what I got to learn from the psychologist, I realized that as long as we hold onto each other, as long as we are still in touch, we wouldn't give room for healing from the hurt. The psychologist said, "Sometimes, you meet the right person, it's just the wrong time." Sometimes the strongest thing you will ever do will be to let go of someone. It will be painful, you will suffer guilt, and you will second-guess yourself, but for your own sanity and quality of life, you just have to let go.

I had to delete his number and blocked him thinking I would heal, I was wrong. I'm sure he is over me now (I can tell from his diary), and I'm happy he's not hurting anymore (I remember him telling me how sad he becomes whenever I don't talk to him in a day, and instantly I became sad). The hardest part for me right now is getting along with any new guy. I have set him up as the standard; it's not like he had it all, but he was just perfect for me. Every guy I met, I end up convincing myself that they aren't a quarter as good as him. The metric I use to scale them up is something I cannot still figure out. We are still pretty young, we've got a lot of years ahead of us. This phase for me might take long to fade off, but I hope that someday it gets to heal and I can meet someone who's half as good as the man I truly fell in love with.

Unrelated : Since we stop talking, "These days" has become my favorite song--"I hope someday, we'll sit down together and laugh with each other about these days, these days."

I ended stuff with my boyfriend sometimes in April last year. At that point, things weren’t pretty alright between us, but I was ready to compromise for him ‘cause I couldn’t just do without him. I reconnected with him long after with the hope of being in his life even if we don’t get to tag what’s going on between us as “love”. But along the line, I realized that we were still feeling hurt from the initial break-up, and we couldn’t just move on, yet, we didn’t wanna get back together. After realizing this, I stopped responding to his messages and blocked him on social media.

It was a tough decision to make, but I know it’s for the best. I haven’t heard from him for months, and realizing that hurts me a lot. A day doesn’t go by when I don’t think of him. Even if we don’t get to be together, I still want to be involved in his life, but then, I figured it’s not the best decision for the both of us.

I have met few amazing guys after him, and as much as I don’t wanna compare them to him, I find it hard not to do so. Right now, he’s still the most smartest, honest and cutest man I have ever come across. I wish things were other way round for the both of us. I hope some day, when we are fully ready, we get back together and marry off immediately, and I hope he remains the “him” that I knew him to be.

Let's see oju awon ole.

Whichever you call it, I am.

NiRfreak:
You must be an homo, cos ain't no way this will disgust u if ain't homo.

You sound disgusting.

NiRfreak:
There's nothing bad in female homosexuality as compared to the demeaning act of buggery that men partake in. I mean, how can a man go so low and allow a man like himself degrade him so much as to bugger his anus.
That should be enough to crash a man's self esteem and identity. For a straight guy, its quite disgusting and irritating when a man is usually seen as the symbol of strength and power, not as a degraded wussy in homosexual acts.
Two women performing homosexual act isn't as disgusting as in the case of men. Female homosexuality befits the tenderly and erotic essence of feminity, unlike the way it degrades the masculine essence and dignity.

Peacekid:
Thanks for this info

What about UoE,
Is the process same?

I'm not quite sure about the process, but I know it's much easier than that of McGill.

nuellab:
OK.. Thank you. So for McGill, will I apply to the school directly or to MasterCard first.

And what time of the year will applications commence please.

You mail a professor in your department that you want him/her to nominate you for the scholarship first. If he/she agrees, a guide to applying for admission and the scholarship would be sent to you. You can look out for the scholarship in early October. Good luck.

Montréal!!!

So i just got a notification on my CIC portal. Logged in and saw that the final decision column which had just "your application has been approved" now has yesterday's date added to it, and there's a new column "document status" wich has the following subheads - Document, Document numbe, Status, Expiry date Status Updated, Date, Travel document, Number, Country of Issue.
In addition to the above,another correspondence letter has been sent indicating details of the approval.
Can someone kindly explain the significance of this to me? Does it mean that passport has been stamped? What's the use of the additional letter - is that the letter of introduction?

Yes, your passport is ready for collection.

ghabrhiel10:
Congratulations man! Still waiting for my letter of introduction

You would likely get that soon. Got my stamped passport on 16th and the LOI came in on 17th.
And if you don't get to see it, send a mail to Nairobi immigration.
