Ok.
One list is fine, it can be used multiple times. Just include all the things coming in. ----But wont the paper be useless after bringing items the first time or they do tick what one brings in to know the remaining not brought in yet?
I’m guessing u have someone to send ur load over 2wks after u leave naija abi?------yes, i do

it wont be useless, just mention u still have stuff coming in

Hello, i read up on this ARRIMA process but i didn't see anything that indicates if ability to speak french will be compulsory. Please do you know?

Arrima is Quebec's portal for applying for immigration....french is one of the ways to get points for the Quebec system....not compulsory (i don't think so) but will add to your points....


another thing though TEF for Quebec is different from the general TEF Canada though.

Thank you very much for this Salford. I appreciate. I I tend landing in Calgary so I will do more research on this. Thanks again. But the textbooks you mentioned where can one get them?
salford1:

According to wife;

Federal: Evaluating exam - 2days, and Qualifying Exam: Part I: Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ) and Part II: Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE).max 3 attempts at each.

Provincial: Ielts academic, Internship (applicant would need to apply for job posting for interns), and Jurispundence. Length/requirements of internship and level of difficulty of jurispundence exam vary across provinces.

I believe it took her between 2 to 3 years. She attended a bridging program too. The bridging program helped in connecting her with other IPGs, and they were able to form study groups. Some bridging programs are not free (10k to 15k) while some are also free. She attended the bow valley free bridging program in Calgary. You have to research bridging programs available in your province of choice. Some bridging programs are mandatory depending on province.

Textbooks includes Compendium of Pharmaceuticals and Specialties, Compendium of Therapeutic Choices, Compendium of Therapeutics for Minor Ailments, and Comprehensive Pharmacy review. She also used past questions from an author called Dr. Misbah. She attended another program (pharm achieve) for the OSCE. It's a 2 or 3 day tutorial program (cost around $5k).

She mentioned that over the years, review guides has changed since she got her license. So you might want to double check with someone presently taking the exams. This is where the study groups and bridging classes come in to lead you in the right direction.

All in all. One needs to be dedicated to clear the exams and all other requirements.

They randomly pick those to check their boxes at their Cairo airport and bin their fish. I was a victim last year. This year, i used BA, they didn't pick anyone out when we stopped over at Heathrow airport.

Good morning my good people of Canny land. Please pardon my ignorance. I have come across a few pages where people talk about cargo. I would really like to know, what are these things that are being cargoed? Won’t the cost of cargoing be almost equivalent to getting another one over there? I’ve always had this mindset of selling most of ones belongings and probably using the proceeds to get another one in Canada. Biko I wouldn’t mind being educated on the cargo thing. Thank you.

Colleagues have started running from me now with the kind coldest rate I switch AC on in office. I feel heat at 20C now. I don't take hot tea before but I have started practicing it with the little rain we experienced few days back #creating artificial environment ahead i. e pre-arrival preparation
