I paid 172k for extra and overweight bag on lufthansa from Lagos to Moncton NB. The bag weighed 29kg

Oh, really? Thanks

Idamsel:
You don’t need to pay for seat. You can choose your standard seats during your check in which is about 30 hrs before your flight.
As per baggage, please check your ticket very well. Your hand luggage is 12 kg in total. Confirm on your ticket if you paid for the 23kg baggage. The information is all on your ticket.

Marpol:
That only happens when you wish to reserve a seat. If the airline assigns you a seat on the day you're traveling then you won't pay. They do that to make money especially if the ticket is cheap.

Hello, do you know how much I'll need to pay for extra baggage on KLM pls? I have the allotted 12kg hand luggage and 23kg check-in baggage allowance. I'll like to know how much it cost for extra 23kg. I saw $90 online but i'll like to be sure. Thanks

I did. I thought the bag they indicated was the 12kg hand luggage. Thanks for clarifying

Thanks, I found out I didn't need to pay for seats

Oh, thanks. I'll check right away

Hello, pls anyone use KLM recently? I booked one and after booking I discovered I need to pay for seats again. But that's not worst issue, now I see their baggage allowance and it says 12 kg for each passenger flying economy class. I'm I mistaken pls? I'm so unhappy right now. If you have any information that can help pls let me know

Thanks, although the link isn't going through. Can you check it out?

Icicles:
Please can someone explain what sponsor approval is?

It means after carefully reviewing your sponsor, the immigration officer decided he is eligible to sponsor you.

Zeus04:
I agree with obtaining certifications to boost your chances which is the same in all parts of the world. The circle you keep will always determine your success anywhere.

Hi there, good day. I just saw the youtube video link you dropped, and I wish you had more time to share what you know about the recruitment process. I sent a mail, wasn't sure you were going to get it, so I decided to reach out here. Can I have your LinkedIn? My mail is iketemmy@gmail.com. Thanks so much

Kenn55:
I'm in Canada but it seems our experiences are different. It seems you are battling with low paying jobs. I and people in my circle are doing high paying jobs. I have changed jobs 3 times in 4 years and each movement increased my pay considerably.
When I came to Canada newly, it was rough. I had to go back to school, pursue an in demand highly skilled career and after my first job, I acquired hard core experiences and boom! I became a hot cake.
The summary is if you do your homework well, have a nice plan, with time all man go dey alright.

Hello, happy weekend to you. I'll really like to connect with you concerning courses you took over there and jobs in high demand right now. I'm aware of recruitment and tech, however I'll need a more specific focus on each by someone over there already to know how best to focus my next actions. My e-mail is iketemmy@gmail.com. I'll be grateful if you'ld be gracious enough to reach out whenever you can make the time. Thanks.

It's PPR!!!

This Canada journey started 2016

Special thanks to everyone who contributed in one way or the other to this success, especially @Graciouswords and Mr pein.

Congrats brother, and so sorry for your loss. May God comfort you and your family in this trying times.

Enjoy your new home.

GraciousWords:
Congratulations sis! 26 months.......

Thank you

Dimple10:
None…my friend paid through gtbank here. International transfer but bear in mind that they may not have exact rates so use online rates and add extra for fluctuation buffer.

Thanks

Dimple10:
473 ghc is the what you pay from Nigeria

Thank you. Do you have any verified agent I can use to pay? I don't have anyone in Ghana that can help me?

MrPein:
Hi. I understand you completely. Congratulations on your PPR.

This is the process to send your passport to Accra:
Submitting passport(s) to Accra VFS without using Lagos VFS.

Thanks you, and I appreciate the detailed response. I'm seeing disparities in prices, pls which is more recent? Do you know?

MrPein:
The processing time for Vfs Lagos is about 6/7 weeks. Vfs Lagos sends to Accra vfs for processing. So by sending directly to Accra, you're reducing the processing time by about 2 weeks. 2 weeks being the time it takes Vfs lagos to send your file to Accra.

Hi there, how do I send my passport directly to Accra Vfs? I'll like a detailed explanation if you don't mind the stress. Almost 2 1/2 years of waiting for this so I don't want to make mistakes if you understand. Thanks

Just got RFV mail about an hour ago. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it.
AOR Jan 2020. The long wait is almost over and the feeling is overwhelming right now. Don't expect the gist now o, it's possible my story won't even be coherent. To all my fellow Nairalanders in this forum especially, twale for you guys. This forum is truly family...

JudiTee:
PRAISE GOD!!!!the God of seasons has done it!!!!

PRAISE GOD !! ����������������
@graciouswords you are just a beautiful soul…. God is working it all out for your good. He never stops any project half way.

Congrats sis, favour in your new location in Jesus' name. May this kind of great news locate all that are waiting in line too.

MrPein:
Hi. I did my remed at IOM.
Since the hospital didn't call you back, I am sure everything is okay. Just a little more time and it will reflect on your profile.
But you can call them or email them. Just to ease your mind.

I'll mail them, thanks so much

GraciousWords:
Check with Qlife if they have uploaded it on the IRCC eMedical portal. Did my remeds Jan 17, Qlife didn't upload till Jan 28 but my remed was passed by Jan 31. It will be done. Hang in there.

Oh really? I was actually thinking the fault can never be from q-life as they've always been so efficient. Thanks so much for this!

ayandee:
follow up with qlife to confirm if they have uploaded your results. If they have, send the e-medical information sheet given by qlife to ircc via webform.

Ok, thanks. I'll definitely do that.

MrPein:
Sent a webform 3 weeks ago. No response.
Just got PPR

AOR: Dec 28, 2019
Remed: 13 Nov 2021
Med passed: 23 Dec 2021
VO: Ottawa

All thanks to God for His mercy and grace.
To all those waiting, be steadfast. God hasn't forgotten you. It will all end in praise and smiles.

hello good morning, I had remedicals done at q-life about 2 weeks ago, and since then, no change in the profile. I see we are awaiting your medical result where the medicals is and I know it usually dosen't take them this long to upload. What could be the problem? I'm a bit concerned.

truthsayer009:
My brother, dem no dey tell person. Now that I moved abroad myself & I can now see reality with my own eyes. Person earning 5,000 Pounds go dey keep 1,500 Pounds after all expenses and costs have been subtracted from your revenue. The money is very big when you bring it to Nigeria to build or buy a house but can barely fund a comfortable lifestyle abroad especially when you live in major cities like London, Toronto or Berlin/Munich, your money go just dey disappear.

Husband and wife have to work to pull funds together because rent for 3 bedroom apartment is not beans, In Nigeria your wife doesn't need to drop shishi. My friends are paying 2,300 pounds per month for 2 bedroom.

If you want to explore, do it when you are young. At the age of 40, people should sit their ass down where they are.

This isn't fair, narrate your experience, give them in-depth recount of what they might face over there, profer your advice, but, for heaven's sake do not discourage anyone for wanting to experience a better life. If Nigeria is this way now, how will it be when his children are growing? If you so believe in your post, I dare you to go raise your children in Nigeria!

The standard processing time is about 30days. I dont think using a family member in canada makes any difference.

Hello, thanks this is really helpful. I'll like to know if its better using a family member in Canada in terms of processing times. Can I get the notes in less than 3 weeks?
