The weather suddenly changed of recent. It gets too dry at night and we wake up with uncomfortable sinuses and bleeding nostrils. There is a way I apply the Balm with the humidifier and it gives so much of relief when it saturates the room.
Obviously I would still be needing it till around March next year, so I don't mind December. I assume you aren't a first timer here for you to choose to come in December.

EHAO:

Lol... I laughed hard reading this. I am coming in December. If you can wait, I will bring the aboniki for you. This one you need 5 in October, I better buy a carton for December

Serious question though, if you have a pet, are you supposed to just dump him when you relocate?

Lol, how would you hack carrying him around when you are trying to sort out settling into a new country?

The real question is would you have to buy a ticket for him? grin

To have a pet here no ne beans oh. Expensive to keep especially when they fall ill and need a surgery on the recommendation of the vet.

That’s why I mentioned the option to take him as I’m going or send him later. No, ticket is not full price, pets are sent as cargo except a support animal.

Lol. Thank you. It’s not exactly cheap here either.
Gets expensive only when your dog is not healthy. We have monthly vets visits and basic feeding and boarding. Of course I don’t plan to travel a lot and I also plan to go without my dog first and only send for him if and when things are stabilised. Thanks for the articles though. Helpful.

Good morning all. Please I need your candid advice .

Am planning to move to Canada next year. In using EE I have used CRS calculator to calculate my point and I have up to the point that qualify me to get ITA. The problem to start the process by myself is POF. For now all my life savings is not up to the required POF.

In addition to this, there is a pastor I know and in the process of conversation I told him about my plan and he said his not an agent but he can help me out to get to Canada. He as helped one guy in the church to migrate to canny. This man said I should bring 800k for the whole process. This man lived in Europe before he came back to Nigeria.

Please I need your good advice on which part to follow.

Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by Claire18: 1:10am On Oct 17, 2019

If you have the POF for family of 6. Then I advice to begin the process. Your wife can come with the kids in the "summer". Within two months or less, she will get a transitional job which will help with the rent monthly. The POF will be needed in the earlier months for settlement and feeding. Also, depending on their age; you get allowance for your Children which you will use to take care of them in addition to what you have.
Minimum wage here in Alberta is $15 per hour. Full-time is 35-40hours. So, it's up to you.

Coolmedown:
Hello Everyone,

I need serious advice from experienced people especially those who left Nigeria for greener pastures in Canada. I have a job that pays me little above N300k monthly in Nigeria with additional annual allowance of about N900k. I have a wife with 4 kids. I have been considering relocating to Canada with my family but I am not sure whether I can get a job that can sustain my family. I do not want to take decision that I will regret in future but I really want to give my children good education with better opportunity thereafter. Should I quit my job and relocate or send only my family to Canada while I continue my work in Nigeria and just be visiting them from time to time?

Don't do it

It has fraud written over it

There are no short cuts to these things
It is the typical Nigerian way of seeking short cuts that created the breeding grounds for so many scammers and thieves

Follow through with your process yourself
Try to save as much as you can this coming year
Express entry will always be here
At least for the medium term
All the best

Ah! 800k. I'll do you one better. Just bring 500k, I will do everything for you. Your 'pastor' has only travelled to Europe, not even America.

Me I have read from part 1 to part 9. In fact, even before that sef, when it was not yet express entry. I know everything about this process and for just 500k, you can get an expert handling this issue. Since you have money to spend.

Bros, please follow the express entry thread, read, read and read. Migrating to another country, another continent is not a joking sturrvs. You can do this by yourself, except you have the money to spend, then no problem.
