Not sure you can get a direct flight from Nigeria to Canada, unless you need a PRIVATE JET!.... To get to Canada from Nigeria, you would have to deal with stop overs either in US, Ethiopia, etc...... Thanks brother. But the ticket payment will just be once from Nigeria, right? |

MrGoogleHead11: Hey guys I just installed Ubuntu 16.04 as the single op system ( cleared window 10), now the WiFi and bluetooth are bad and also no sound is coming out of the laptop at all.
I'm using HP Pavilion x360 m3 core i3 convertible.
There's no Ethernet port on the laptop and I couldn't get its USB adaptor to connect to internet and perform drivers update, I'm stalk here pls help me. You simply having drivers issues. You should have partitioned it with windows 10 so as to be sharing the windows 10 drivers. I partitioned mine. No issue with either bluetooth or wifi. Go to "softwares and updates" then "additional drivers" if there are drivers available to install. |

I just got this on ustraveldocs.com: Students or exchange visitors Purpose of travel is to begin or resume a valid program of study in the United States within 60 days when no regular visa appointments are available. This option is limited only to students and exchange students who are within 60 days of their start date. It is also limited only to applicants who have not been refused a visa within the last six months at either the U.S. Embassy in Abuja or the U.S. Consulate General in Lagos. I was refused a visa 20th Dec, that's within the last 6 months like stated above. What shall I do, please? Book for emergency appointment |

Olasunkey: I have been a silent followers since over 4 months now and I came across nairaland when I was making research on some visa stuffs and I just continuing reading it every day…. Special thanks to olumighty who help me paid my sevis fee and so to those who transcript I read here. Visa Delayed…..: Dec 7th 6:30am Visa Approved…..:Dec 29th 9:30am
My story goes like this, I choose La Roche College as my school of choice and my major is Biochemistry with the aim of goin for forensic courses…. I applied for interview on the 7th after which I was denied by the Vo all she said first was this school has an acceptance rate of 94% and denied me I was confused and I promise to refire after 3 days I paid for another appointment… then the earlier date I saw was Jan 14th so I book emergency appointment and got Dec 29th ……….. lets go to the main deal.. On the 29th I woke up in the morning around 3am and go through my points and I prayed … so by 7am I got to Orile by 7:30 and I enter CMS I got to CMS by 8:10 na so me and my dad drop as we no know road to embassy with the hope of asking for road and we my dad dey ask for road na so one man come met me show me ID card say let me see what you carry I was like shey this one mad nii I quickly call my dad he con say he be police after 5mins of argument we give am he con check and he saw my dad SOA and he was like this is OLUWOLE DOCS, all my brain don scatter I forget everything I read becuz I no cram and its going 9am already and I have appointment for 9:30 no time to go bank go dey confirm… so my dad settle am like 1k after making calls……… got to the embassy by 9:15 I enter… thank God people Plenty so I just organize myself …. After all so we cue for line and we remain like 15 people to be interview the day was a blue paper day … so the CGI guy just direct 2 guy and me say make we go new window , the man doing biometric was the one who want to interview us………. The man was very very friendly and lively .. the 2 guys b4 me he approved them both but he can type for Africa … so he remain my turn.. Vo: Good Morning, How are you today? ME: Good morning sir, I’m Fine and how about yourself? Vo: I’m good, pass me your docs and I did Vo: then he type for like 2mins and said where are you going to? ME: I’m going to La Roche college, Pittsburgh Pennsylvania to pursue my bachelor’s degree in Biochem Vo: then he type for like 3mins again and said Major Chemistry and I said No sir it’s Biochem Vo: I see you just finished High school and I said yes sir, let me see your Transcript Me: I shocked and said I don’t have my transcript here sir, I have my WAEC Cert and he said just show me something and I gave it to him a then he types again.. Vo: what will this course do for you? Me: It will equip me with strong foundation in chemistry and it would give me the hands on experience required to be a forensic sci and he types again Vo: what does your dad does sorry who is paying for this ME: My dad Vo: what does he does Me: he’s a fluid and pipeline Engr he works as a contractor to NNPC and Mobil then he types VO: is it Excon Mobil I said No Mobil oil & gas and he said here in Nigeria I said Yes and he said so you have anything tp show me you have the amount stated on this i20 Me : yes and I showed him.. my dad SOA and he checked for like 2mins and types then he give me bak my Cert and sevis and i20 and he continue checking the statement and I begin pray for mind say God pls no make am put me for AP because I heard it can be frustrating and he types again ….. Vo: he gives me back the SOA and said sorry give me the i20 back and I did and he just dey fold the i20 inside my passport and begin dey say the magic words your visa is approved and you would receive an email on where to pick it and tell me I would be needing my i20 at the Poe I should keep it with me but he no give me the i20.. so I just collect my white paper and said thank you sir and leave… But Gurus since then if I track am I dey see Administrative Processing and I’m worried and confused as my i20 resume to Jan 8th but I have a letter from the school saying I can enter up till Jan 16th ………

temitope2598:
I share the same opinion. There was a transcript here some weeks back of a lady who had her first degree(Bachelor of Arts) in English and literary studies I think. She's was switching careers to Computer Science and going for another Bachelors and she gave her reasons to the Interviewing officer. Ofcourse, she got her visa approved.
This doesn't mean it's impossible to get your visa approved if it's still in the same career path, but like imperioux (one of the few people I regard so well on this forum said). You've got to have strong persuasion skills.
Exactly |

Really, it’s not to spite anyone. It’s just to show that we are not better in any way. But we got it by the Mercy and favour of God. That hall is really a lion’s den. I could recall I entered with boldness, but seeing how blue papers were flying all around I was almost fidgeting but I started singing and speaking in tongues in my mind. I encourage those that were delayed here to refire, and they will surely come back and share their testimonies. The race is truly not for the swift but grace and favour caps it all. That’s my own humble submission. You are right, man |

Pls Mr twoods, am going for undergraduate course in sonography in Lincoln University after I did zoology and majored in genetics... Have been thinking of something to say as my answer might be too lame for the VO maybe to consider... VO: why do you still want to go for an undergraduate course after you had one? Ans: I was fascinated by the work while I was doing my industrial training in part and that has really changed my thought and moreso, the need for sonographers is on the rise in Nigeria to 26% and that's why I really wanna go for the course... Pls help my life people... Everybody's suggestions is wekcomed pls.. My interview January 10..thank you If you have been reading the transcripts in this room, you would have seen many approved BSc to BSc, so far they are of different fields. Just have a good presentation on why this course? And why another BSc/ or change of field? |

Mr man, why are you so averse to knowledge. Stop displaying your high level of ignorance in the public. A simple google search is all you need. I don't understand why people find it so easy to just talk to anybody anyhow behind their phone... what have I said that warrant such from you... was only asking if a visa fee is still valid after a delay... All you could do is talk anyhow to someone you don't know. It is very wrong, mind the way you talk to people... No one knows tomorrow. |
