But Iru is allowed na, what poster is asking for is how to mask that smell. I've been searching the tread but I was told it has to be well dried and blended.

wholesomegrace:


Lol, you are right, but I don't think its everywhere. I still got a call recently from a friend telling me the only thing she needs from me when coming is iru

Hello Everyone,

I must say that I have learnt a lot form this group. Thank you all.

My Family and I are relocating to Canada next month, Calgary to be precise and I have been looking for job opportunities and all.

Please, can anyone recommend any app that I can link to my number to get a Canadian no to put on my CV before I arrive?

Iyamefa:
Just wanted to say Thank you to the contributors who led me in the right direction.

I checked CRA’s website for volunteer services and was able to file my taxes with Intuit.

Meanwhile I thought they said Rent is no longer part of the refunds one can claim from the government? Or did I hear incorrectly?
I got rent refunds

Landing Update

So, we finally traveled last week in March. Destination: Ontario; Airline: Lufthansa/Air Canada; Family of 4; Total Bags: 8 Checked in- 4 hand luggages. Nnamdi Azikwe Airport was totally in chaos as there was a huge crowd at the airport entrance door waiting to go through the security bottleneck. Quarrel and fighting all over the entrance made it difficult to get bags through. Once we got our bags through, 2 of our bags were called for screening by the customs or so - they removed our frozen palm-oil which we had packed in ribena bottles . we had 12 bottles, but they managed to only locate 5 of the bottles.

I was asked if these were all the goods, then i said no, other goods are coming (Since we are allowed to bring in our goods within a year na). So the customs lady wrote on it that good still coming and gave me my document back. Will ship in some more food in due time for winter later in the year ). Picked up my bags and home we went.

Congrats on your landing,

Does anyone know how to ship things from Lagos? Please help, I am leaving next month and I am using British airways/ American Airlines to Calgary. They seem to have the shortest flight time and short layover as well. However I read somewhere that British airways are very strict on excess luggage and quite expensive too (I have 4-5 boxes). Please does anyone know how to ship stuff from Lagos? And how much? please help.

ps: if you have your COPR and haven’t landed yet, please make use of the various pre arrival services. They help, I am presently running online courses with two of them and I was also linked with a mentor in my field and an employment consultant.



Thanks for this information. May the land favour your family.
Got quick questions please:

1. For the goods following, did you send via airline or how? I mean how can i know the cargo service to use?

2. You mentioned a year to bring in other goods that follow. Are all these items duty free? I mean apart from the 120k you paid in Nigeria, did you have to pay anything else in Canada?

Thank you!!!

I started my career in HR, but when I got to Canada I realised there is more opportunity in Accounting. So after I did my research I registered at a community college here in Winnipeg for a Diploma in Business Administration with a major in Accounting. By the grace of God i only have 4 months to complete it. Then i continue with my CPA Prep courses.

I'm writing this epistle because I have something I want to share for people who are interested in accounting. Seneca College Toronto have a one-year graduate certificate that covers all the CPA Prep requirements, whereas after my 2 years course I will still have to write 6 Prep courses. In essence, after one year you can move to PEP.
Here is the link to the course: http://www.senecacollege.ca/programs/fulltime/PRA.html

They also have a professional accountancy course that covers the first stage of the PEP; Core 1 and 2 and Elective 1 and 2, so you can start from capstone. http://www.senecacollege.ca/programs/fulltime/ACY.html.

I hope I have been able to help someone.
