Hotstepper:
Even 1 day, just go to hospital if not time to get a gynea...at the hospital, dr on call will deliver ur baby simple

Thanks for responding.

What if someone has an emergency say delivering via C-section especially elective CS? I guess specialized doctors I.E obstetricians will have to handle, how fast can one be referred given the few days constraints?
Before leaving Naija nko, won't airlines pose a hindrance with fit to fly wahala?

No vex o.

My questions stem from so many landing gists and discussions I have read especially the old thread from 2017, one needs to be aware of what one is getting into make person no enter one chance. I read on the old thread about the wait time at hospitals for emergencies and fear catch me.

If anyone had same situation and will not want to give details on a public forum, kindly PM me biko. Thank you

Dessdess:
Hi, I might be able to help you as I delivered a baby 1 month after landing in Winnipeg

Thanks for responding.
One month is long enough to get the necessaries.
I'm looking at the possibility of someone delivering within a week of landing.
Advisable or nah?

Good morning all from Nigeria,
Please is there anyone that delivered a baby immediately after landing in Canada? Say, within a few days to a week? I need some walk through on the process from boarding/fit to fly and getting a GP/OBGYN in a very short period. Thank you

Do you have a source for this information you've given?

Canada: All forms of polygamy, and some informal multiple sexual relationships, are illegal under section 293 of the Criminal Code. Bigamy is banned by section 290. However, for a long time, the law banning polygamy has not been efficient. Source, Wikipedia

If poster is a Moslem, he should research well if it is allowed as per religion and how well to go about it.

GBSS:
I think the monikers statement is ‘a child less than one year’.

I agree that the question does not give information about when the child was born, before, during or after the PPR process. But it would be a safe assumption to make, that the question is being asked because the child was birthed after AOR.

Making an assumption that the child is almost one year would be a long assumption that may not follow directly from the statement of the moniker as one can argue that the child could be 2 months old, which is far from your assumptions.

We all are making assumptions based on the limited info hence my seeking further clarification from the poster and asking him/her to pardon my intrusion.

My brain interpreted less than one year old as a child (infant) in the neighborhood of 9-11 months. I personally would have used a few months old for an infant of say 2-4 months.

I also wondered if people would wilfully withhold info of adding their newborn after AOR, during the wait for PPR or after PPR. Been on the journey for a few years but recently joined NL and I have read quite a lot here. Generally, families declare a newborn ASAP, irrespective of what stage they're at.

Your perspective is noted... Thank you

I hope the poster will be able to make informed decisions based on all the rejoinders.

Am new on this forum and i appreciate so much information shared and have been helpful but l have a question ....am the principal applicant as Master degree holder with 2 wives ...am currently in the pool with one of my wife but can l add my second wife after Invitation to Apply (ITA).. my 5 children and 2 wives all bear my surname and 2 traditional wedding certificates..we have travel to London Dubai, Ireland and USA previously as a family but we all apply independently for visa attaching copy my own passport with visa and travel history to their own visa application..please l need suggest and advice on how best to go about with the application

Canada doesn't recognize polygamy.

Swtibogirl88:
Please i have a question
A friend of mine wants to get married geniuely with another man, she is no longer with her husband but they have not done the divorce yet. Now the guy wants to marry her before creating his profile to avoid writing LOE after getting PPR or ITA. What are the circumstances and will this have any effect? She has 2 kids already. She bears her formal husband's name in her passport which has 2 yrs to expire and her ECA. Please advice guys.
Thanks

Let her file for divorce. Timeline for divorce to be final can be long and cumbersome. Takes years for some people.
After the divorce is final, she can change her name to her maiden name evidenced by newspaper publication, then request for a new international passport.
Her kids... Hmmmm, if the ex-husband agrees to her having full custody of the kids, then there has to be relevant documents to that effect.
AVO will eventually request for interview sef.

GBSS:
You need to raise a CSE informing IRCC of your new baby.
You will be required to do medicals, provide passport and update your POF.
I think you would be given a limited time to do that, so it’s wise you commence the passport before you inform them. You know how to get passport for Naija be.

Pardon me,
Is it possible to add an almost one year old baby to an existing application awaiting PPR or after PPR?
Is that not misrepresentation?

GBSS:
@ embolden line, na wo!
Ahhh see kwezion!!!

It's a strange question so I need to question the question.

Thegirl2019:
Good day house,please I would like to know the requirement for adding a baby less than a year old while waiting for PPR or after PPR

The documents please and how long would it take
Thanks

I'm curious so pardon me
Is the baby yours?
Why didn't you add him/her during your application?
The only category I know of that you can add after PPR or while waiting for PPR is your spouse, means you got married after your application was submitted. Also new born babies, given birth to while awaiting PPR

Hervoice:
The person who got pr from avo, what was the persons timeline, had it exceeded the 6 months frame?

I have no idea whatsoever, but Accra waiting timeline is crazy mehn. I learnt they work massively around this period and dish out PPR enmasse irrespective of your timeline. Fingers crossed and hoping on God for a miracle. Our medicals expire April

Hervoice:
Its four more days until my 6 months processing time is up. No update whatsoever, has Accra office been giving out PPR this January? Pls does anyone has an update on what is happening in Accra office? I want to request for my Gcms note

We've entered our 10th month post AOR. No update whatsoever. Response to mails sent was the generic "your documents are on queue for review". I saw a timeline of Dec 2018 AOR. I just weak. Order the GCMS notes so you can know how far. Someone got PPR this week, had an interview with AVO I learnt. I'm not aware of any other PPR from AVO.

Prisscindy:
I have sent you a DM. Kindly reply so I can send the number

I can't seem to figure how DM or PM works. Still very green on this platform. I replied via my mail. Did you get it please?

Prisscindy:
I do. It can even be possible in few days, depends on your pocket, it's about 45k fast track for adults and 35k for children. My friends did theirs December and got it next day. But I don't know how much it costs without fast track.

Please can I get this contact too? Thanks

MJKJ:
I was worried about re-medicals in December but I've come to terms with it.

I'm sending my own 'how far with my application' email to them on Friday even though I already know what the response would be, except I get the PPR mail before then. LoL...

Wetin we go do nah, it's just too depressing, the wait, your "life" on hold. At least AVO should respond to mails sent, not the generic response. It will end in praise by God's grace.

MJKJ:
We are here o.
8 months 2 weeks post AOR.

We sent a mail and got the generic response, "your application is on queue for review". It is well o. I'm just worried because I can't imagine spending so much to redo medicals again. AVO needs to sit up biko

My AVO people, when will the rain abi is it flood of PPR come? 9 months post AOR... Medicals expiring in April.

Datevilme:
Hello guys,

Concerning uploading statement of accounts, is it compulsory I go to the bank to get a printed copy, or can compile the ones my bank usually sends monthly via email?

You can get a six month statement of account from your bank. It is not expensive, maybe N50 with vat per page. The statement varies in number of pages due to the number of transactions you did.

smartkester:
Aww!! So no one can help me out with the difference between AIPP and express entry??

Please, anyone who has a rigid knowledge of the both programs should help clarify a brother na.

Have you googled the difference? There are so many information online and on different forums. Cheers

Royalty1:
Thanks Sunshine. But I hear the dried ones might get crushed into powered form. Will that still be useable?

I don't know about been crushed into powder form but the possibility is there. It should still be useable. I have so much dried bitter leaves that I have commenced using some. It is very nice, same with uziza. I haven't tried using my dried Ugwu leaves though

Royalty1:
Hello House,
Did anyone successfully travel with Ugu leaves to Canny? Was it fresh or dried? and how was it done?
Please help out.

Thanks.

I am still in Naija but I have prepared my dried ugwu leaves, uziza leaves and bitter leaves since last year. They are all chilling in zip lock bags and would be cling filmed and wrapped whenever we are set to go.
Get a large amount of ugwu from the market, say 2000 worth or more because it is very expensive now because of the season. Let the market women slice for you. Spread in trays or sacks spread in a shaded place because direct sunlight will wilt it faster. Thank God it's harmattan period, so you are covered, it should be ready in a few days

kiari:
you can't use your cousin. only your sibling, or your spouse's siblings. that's all...

I know of someone expecting PPR that went through the family route. He and relative don't have same parents, neither do they have same surname. The only common link is that the intending PR's mother and the Canadian PR's father are siblings, having same parents. The PR was able to supply needed supportive documents and he was nominated under PNP. He also got added 600 points

Teemez:
Good evening sirs/ma, Please I can use a cousin for prove of family on Canada bearing in mind that we dont bear the same SURNAME, before she got married and now that she is also married we still cant bear the same SURNAME. Your prompt response is highly appreciated

You should be able to prove that you are related. For example, same parents so the surname will be same. That is your dad/mum and her dad/mum have same parents and bear same surname.
Some other people might throw more light on this, so be open to other people's feedback

Hello ma'am,
I guess you must be long settled in Brandon Manitoba. Can you give me an insight on Brandon? You know, stuff a new immigrant should know about... Health care, jobs, apartments, where to rent, schools, daycare, recreation e.t.c

Lag202:
Just want to find out what living in Brandon (Manitoba) is like. Moving there soon as a professional Nurse and hubby a Pastor. Thanks

Good evening from Nigeria,
Anyone in Brandon, Manitoba? Do share your experiences please �

Hello dear Landed Seniors,
Anyone in Brandon, Manitoba? I'm yet to see/read any relevant information on Brandon from a Nigerian immigrant living there. It'll be great to read about jobs, housing, transportation, schools, childcare/daycare, where to get Naija food stuff and any other relevant information the responder is willing to put out.
Thanks

Hello all,
My fellow AVO pipu how una dey? I heard from a little bird that AVO's output is usually in the first quarter of the year... Na true? My spouse and I are currently 8 months post AOR. I'm beginning to understand the term patience is a virtue better everyday. May God touch AVO's heart and release a rain of PPR as Ottawa is doing currently. Meanwhile congratulations to all that have made it.
