In 2007, a Nairalander @ vicjustice was kind enough to share his experience about the hustling life in different countries. It's over a decade now, lot of polices changed, border tightened, asylum rejected, deportation increased, xenophobic riot in jo'burg, modern slavery in Dubai ( travel documents siezed) ,USA rarely grants visa this days blah blah blah... Despite it all, Nigerians still intend to leave the country in droves due to unemployment, poor standard of living, safety, quality of life, no credit facility to startup a venture, degrading infrastructure, mentally bankrupt government etc. Even if you tell intending immigrants to stay put, it still won't change there mind. Hence, for those who have been around the block hustling in different countries and continents kindly come in and share your first hand experience ... 1 Like

I once lived in Nigeria, a great county I must say. Blessed with corrupt leaders who have nothing to offer except stealing. But I'm hoping things Will get better with the likes of pointus Pilate, heavy pocket gadollar, ajala the traveller, Nigeria shall see the light again. |

Your interest and emphasis seem to be only on the negative situations, development and changes: I quote you "It's over a decade now, lot of polices changed, border tightened, asylum rejected, deportation increased, xenophobic riot in jo'burg, modern slavery in Dubai ( travel documents siezed) ,USA rarely grants visa this days blah blah blah... I put it to you that within same decade, alot of great and favourable immigration changes and policies came on board example is the U.K recent residence allowance for foreign students after graduation, Canada's more enhanced skilled migration, Canada's high percentage approval of asylum seekers, Germany's recent open hands in skill migration Etc!!! So you should be expecting only the people in those negative circles you mentioned to reply to you. |

Ugoerico:I won't classify the percentage as high- less than 35% of Nigerians got asylum based on statistics released. The ones that got rejected will keep appealing until the exhaust the number of appeals or choose to stay illegally and find work here and there. The I am 'gay' facing religious and political persecution and fleeing from genital mutilation is not working anymore. |

Vanhooijdonk:"less than 35%" is greater than less than 11% of Germany's approval for Nigerians, greater than the less than 5% of Asian countries' approval for Nigerians... So I put it to you that the "35%" in Canada is relatively HIGH!!!!!!!! |

@Vicjustice I run a small business with SOA of more than 10 million (6 months) but business not registered(use savings account). Can my savings account be used for visa purposes? I have a tax card and all my business receipts, can that be used for visa application or I must have a registered business? |
| Re: Life In Various Foreign Countries: Share Your Experience by Vicjustice: 10:42am On Jan 12, 2020 |
roughdiamond:You might not like to hear this, but in the view of visa officers, you are a corrupt business owner as your unregistered business is illegal therefore, it is not a legitimate occupation to be used for visa application. |
| Re: Life In Various Foreign Countries: Share Your Experience by roughdiamond(m): 3:39pm On Jan 12, 2020 |
Vicjustice:How do I go about it then? I am not based in Nigeria but do all my purchases in Nigeria using my Nigerian bank accounts. |
