PTA IS PERSONAL TRAVEL ALLOWANCE. YOU GET DOLLAR FROM THE BANK WHEN YOU HAVE A VALID VISA AND RETURN FLIGHT TICKET FROM THE BANK. FEW DAYS AGO SOME FEW BANKS RENEGOTIATED THEIR CONDITIONS FOR PURCHASE OF BTA OR PTA AND NIGERIAN STUDENTS CAN NOW BUY PTA WITH A SINGLE TICKET BUT FLIGHT MUST BE MORE THAN 5 HRS.
PEACE

PTA-personal travel allowance- needed when you want to travel .

I supposed there will be a receipt after using it, So
Is it cheaper than using Bureau De change ?
Is it compulsory one uses the PTA ?
Will Immigration at the POE ask for the PTA ?
Can I show cash I got from Beareu De change as my Travel allowance ? (you know it doesn’t mostly have receipts or recognized receipt)

Good afternoon, Nairalanders,

I have a quick question. While filling out the consent form for GCMS notes application, is one expected to fill the parts that are in three columns with the figures and headings: "2.1-2.3 Related Individual's Information"?—that is, after filling the required details of the applicant and those of their representative in Canada.

Please, I need an urgent response from the gurus here. I want to apply for my GCMS notes right away.

Thanks in advance.

PTA/BTA is a foreign currency product that ensures customers who are travelling out of the country on personal or business trips have access to foreign currency at approved CBN rates.

They will only ask for the cash you are carrying. They don't need receipt for the exchange you made.

PTA: Personal Travel Allowance

It's access to 4k USD to travellers at CBN rate (usually way cheaper than buying from Aboki). You apply with your stamped passport and tickets.

Before this recent news (I don't believe it yet ), you can only access it by booking a 2way ticket.

I don’t understand please.
If I did something wrong, atleast you could spell it out and then I’d take note.
You haven’t complained about anything I hv done before and now feels like you’ve been warning me and I refused to listen. I feel embarrassed and less of myself right now but that’s okay.

By the way there won’t be a next time, I’d stop saying anything on here. This isn’t my office or my father's website either ways.

Thank you and thanks everyone, I really learned a lot on here.

My PPR is coming next week and I need you to congratulate me so don't stop posting mbok.

Hello,
I’m seeing the discussion concerning PTA.

The best option is to have a family member open an account at globus bank when you have travelled. Then they’d request for pta for a relative , they’d act as your sponsor. They’d get it at CBN rate.

I know many people that have done it and I am in the process of doing it.

I also her that keystone bank does something similar.

You should have caution me than sound like I knew this before now.
I mean I would have stopped or ignored questions I didn’t have answers to.
What advertisement? Someone needed help with sop and I recommended because they helped when I needed assistance , if I knew how to write a good sop, I would have shared a template for the person .
You should have told me I’m stopping the growth of the thread!

Oh please moderator of nairaland, Don’t get me pissed, it’s better you delete my moniker than annoy me further !!!

Don't leave and don't get deleted on the platform.

Hello Lianna2020, i understand you perfectly well. But let's keep assisting ourselves here.

@Justwise, the people mentioned by lianna have been helpful in various ways. One of them even did free SOP for three people recently. We all know that this platform does not encourage this agency thing. But mentioning people who have helped on this platform will go a long way to make more people want to help.

Abeg, let's keep helping ourselves. A a ni damu ooo!!!
