Hi,

Please, i need help/advise

My wife and toddler son will be coming on an immigrant PR visa by next month. We have chosen Regina, saskatchewan because she has a friend there.

We need a shared apartment for rent, preferably a 3 bed. 3 bed rooms seem cheaper, when the cost are divided among 3 people (Please, i have no experience, just google searches. Kindly correct me if i am wrong).

Now, my questions are, how will she meet like minds of interested co flat mates, to make payment with, or how can she see other flatmates to join in a shared bed room and pay rent?

Also, please if anyone has any cheap accommodation in any province, we are interested

The best way to go with accommodation is to search for one after arriving in Regina. Hopefully the friend can accommodate her and the child for some days before sorting out accommodation. It will be difficult to find a shared accommodation with a child. It is better to look for a one bedroom apartment, studio suite or something similar. Roommates will not want to have a roommate with a child. My one cent advise.

Hello famz,

I'm trying to bring my mom to canada via supervisa to help take care of my newborn.

Mom is a trader with very low bank activity.

I would like to know if I can apply for supervisa for her without her bank statement. Is my bank statement and NOA sufficient for supervisa application?

Thanks

For nursing in Alberta, it depends on what you want. If you want to be a Registered Nurse with a degree from Nigeria, you can look into 2nd degree nursing program. I know University of Alberta and Macwean in Edmonton offer this program but not sure if any university or college in Calgary offer it. The program is very comprehensive from what I've heard from people. If you want to a License Practical Nurse, you can look into that program. It takes 2 years to complete and the requirement to enter is High School diploma. I think Bow Valley College in Calgary offers the program.

My friend Badadvisor is coming to Toronto for his wedding. He arrived in Canada in March 2024 as a student, and as you know, Express Entry (EE) scores have been high, so he's looking for the best possible way to stay without applying for asylum.

as his brother and uncle gave him the money and he sold all he had without a skill or plan in Nigeria thinking Canada will spoon-feed him

Then there is Mount royal university does 4 years nursing as well.

Hi everyone! Thank you for the good work going on here
I am already in BC, Canada on study permit with my family. I will be done by August ending when i intend processing my PGWP but I submitted an express entry application in February which is yet to be reviewed. my question is will this not hinder my PGWP application approval especially when they will want to still emphasize on whether i will leave country, should i just withdraw the EE application profile.

Hypocrisy at its peak.
You dislike Indians so much to the extent you denigrate them by calling them awon pajeet and you are allowed to be openly Indianphobia but others are not allowed to be homophobia.

You defend your Agege community but you can't defend the Indian community against MAGA. So much for being accommodating.

Anyway, I will take Indian community even with their fault over the Agege community anytime anyday. Anybody wey no like am, make e go chop Apple wey Abacha chop those days grin
Who be this one 😂😂😂 Indians never show u shege before ??

Oga Dem in d house 🏠

A kid bro of mine secured admission at a college in Ontario, for a PSW course.

He has gotten his LOA and PAL.

A semester tuition is 9k CAD

An auntie of his, who is a USA citizen is coming in as a financial supporter, she is paying the first semester tuition and giving him her documents (20k in her bank statement, notarized documents showing she is d mum young sister, her employment letter and ID).
While my kid bro is to arrange about 10-15m POF in his account...

OR

Can our blood sister who is younger to my kid bro sponsor or stand in as a financial support to his application (same surname) and a USA citizen.

OR

Can both our auntie and young sister sponsor him.



Do u think it's fine to secure a study visa?

Or what other thing do u think is needed.....
Na next year in-take..


Oga Dem please kindly respond nor advise
