Hi guys,

Apologies for the MIA with the TRV update. I’ve been prepping for my professional exams due this week plus I’ve also been traveling.

Hoping to resume once I’m done with my exams.

I wish all TRV hopefuls all the best!
I wish you success in your exams.

Sorry for the delay in your application... and from your time line it's been more than 9weeks.. have you sent webforms and mails to them since to enquire why the long delay... have you ordered for your gcms note to give u a better understanding of why it's still being delayed...if no, I advise you start doing so immediately...

Guys , Good morning all .
Quick one pls. My Bro wanna book KLM for me, he said Ethiopian airline and Egypt air maybe very frustrating for me being a first time long distance traveler .

He's not concerned about the cheap aspect , but comfort . He said those middle East airlines will first fly a long distance to their country and the embark on anothe trip to the main destination. He said it can be frustrating and annoying

Transit (C) visas are nonimmigrant visas for persons traveling in immediate and continuous transit through the United States en route to another country. You will definitely need a transit visa if you are passing through USA. I will recommend using Lufthansa* layover in frankfurt and then straight to Canada. You don't need a transit visa to transit through Germany. Save yourself the stress. All the best and safe journey in advance.

Hello FAM!!!


Please any idea about schools in Canada that take 2:2 grade (around 3.2 cgpa) for MSc..... Bsc in Accounting.....have searched and searched ....
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 16 by Mudicua: 11:03am On Jun 10, 2019
True. Any international flight will leave Nigeria and go their hubs first before going to the final destination. Except it is a direct flight to the country (e.g BA to UK direct, Delta direct to US, Canada Air direct to Canada).

Ethiopian will take you to Addis first before going into Canada, with a brief stop in Dublin... (but you will not come down)
Same applies for Emirates.... first to Dubai, before transiting you to Canada.

Truth is you will not get any direct flight that comes cheap. KLM will go to Amsterdam first before transiting to Canada. I am surprised the flight will have to go into US. I do not know how that works though or why it is so.
But if the funds are not a problem, KLM, Lufthansa is nice. Air France (not so cool), Ethiopian air is also cool (if you do not mind the distance). Same with Emirates and Qatar. (comfortable, but very long)
Some people I know have used Ethiopian, Egypt and Maroc (for the price)... cheesy cheesy cheesy (Ethiopian is still more favored amongst these 3).

But if it is comfort, then KLM, Lufthansa, BA. (with plenty money) grin grin grin

If you said you have been working for a year now that means you started work in 2018 right? And you said you graduated since 2013, did you make effort to explain in your sop what you have been doing from the time you graduated to the time you were employed? That is about 4+yrs gap. There should be some activities between this gap, either academic or work.

I was working from 2014 as a personal assistant, to work as recently stated as a consultant II. I think I’ll have to knw more trick on hw to write a powerful sop, I’ll keep the house updated whe I have my note to know which area to tackle
. I’d appreciate if you can as well help to construct a convincing sop. Thank you for your time

Can I do an MSC with the pgd
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 16 by Bracha: 11:47am On Jun 10, 2019
For the UK, you won't be needing a transit visa if you won't be leaving the departure lounge of the airport. For the US you WILL need a transit visa. Please don't go through the US for any reason.

You could use Ethiopian airline Economy Flex, or whichever you choose. Just tell the agent you use that you don't want route through countries that require transit visa: US, Switzerland etc.
Modified: I'll suggest Emirates, their service is topnotch; and Lufthansa. Or you could still do Ethiopian airline Business class.

Please leave Royal Air Maroc. Their racism and unprofessional behaviour is on another level. If you want cheap, use Ethiopian airline.

You need to research for samples of SOP/LOE online and develop something on your own, afterwards you can ask someone to peruse it for you and make corrections/recommendations, no one will develop an SOP for you, you wear shoes and of course knows where it pinches.

Tlontin, OptimusPrime21, Mudicua, ralfudoh, guys I forgot to include this in my email:

if you're going to the colder regions of Canada e.g Winnipeg; some parts of Quebec, Ontario, Saskatchewan, & Alberta, you'll need thermal clothing (read underwear). Please endeavour to buy them, bargain well o.

Cheers.

Hello guys, in new here, pls I need your urgent view on this, my sponsors account has #27M, but the statement of account is not more that 2 pages, I asked him why he said because he doesn't really do any business transactions on that account. Please I want to know, is there anything wrong in using such a statement. Just 2 paged.
