Hi all,

Please I intend to travel to Ottawa, Canada for the Xmas & New year. I discovered that Turkish Airline from Lagos to Toronto is the cheapest fare.

I want to know if I can fly Turkish Airline to Toronto and book a local flight ( Air Canada) from Toronto to Ottawa . This would save more than N50,000

I want to know if I would have any problem at the Point of Entry since in my Visa application I stated I was going to see my brother in Ottawa

saxywale:
Thebaft is actually correct. if you apply online, you do not need to submit your passport to vfs after or before biometrics. You will receive an email on your "myCIC" account advising that your visa is ready for collection. You would be given 30days to submit your passport to CIC for visa.

I don't have an idea on how paper application works though. I have never used the paper application system.

kkokoma:
Please be careful when making statements that may be misleading. How do you get the visa onto your passport? do you think they send it to you. Be very clear, you submit your original passport to the Visa Processing Centre and do your Biometric in person after you have submitted your online application. At least for Canadian Visit Visa which this thread is all about

hopefulme:
Please, should the statement of purpose for visitor visa be addressed to CIC,Lagos or not addressed? Thanks

richardquest:
The problem is what if one submitts his original passport and wait forever without reply the reason is one needs to be mindful because there other valid visas on the passport thats why one should be scared of dropping original copy .........what if if the passport gets missing?

richardquest:
Sorry if this sounds stupid but when applying for Tourist Visa is one expected to submit original international passport.

Thank you for this question, the annual ground rent is a requirement in land lease, and we have been trying to arrive at a favourable amount all these while. The community are asking me to be paying N100,000 yearly for the land but I refused, the going rate in Enugu seems to be N500 for each plot. We agreed to hold another meeting on this with the heads of each family. The matter is still inconclusive, but I made provisions for it in the land documents I will hand over to each buyer, now waiting for what they will charge me.

spyder880:
I have another meeting with the owners of this land, we plan to agree on a few things like annual rent as is the norm in deed of lease.

I am also supposed to pay the second and final instalment of the land today. All signatories are supposed to attend this meeting and all must sign before I part with the money.

I am also supposed to pick up about 17 documents from my lawyer for distribution to buyers who have completed their payments. We are moving on.

spyder880:
Please, the voting is over. I am therefore consulting with our members here to come up with a decision. More of the buyers of these plots who own up to 3-4 plots favour the old zoning pattern with which they selected their plots and paid. I am going to respect their choices. These people own a combined majority in this land.

The decisions we reach will be communicated to all by this night. Thank you all.

spyder880:
Rule 10. That all cars must be parked inside each compound. All vehicles left outside on the roads or sidewalks will be towed away and the cost of towing borne by the owner of the vehicle.

spyder880:
Rule 9. That the official time for opening the estate be fixed for 5.30 am, and closure of the gates be fixed at 9.30pm, except on issues of emergency. Such emergency must be communicated to the estate manager.

spyder880:
Rule 5. That no plot owner allow their plots to be overgrown with bush, and that a penalty of N20,000 be collected yearly from landlords who cannot make arrangements to clear their plots as at when due.

spyder880:
Rule 6. That a monthly maintenance fee of N5000 be paid by each plot owner. This money will be used among other things to pay an estate manager, a security outfit to man the gate and patrol the grounds, there will also be gardeners to tend the flowers and mow the lawns.

spyder880:
Rule 4. That all plot owners who wants to fence their compound must erect a frontal fence which will be 1.5 meters high, there could be extensions built on top with metal or wire gauze, but the blocked lower part must be 1.5 meters high. The back and sides of this fence could be as high as needed.

spyder880:
Rule 1A. That we agree to have a uniform height of buildings, not exceeding 6 meters tall for the final height of all the houses, before the roof. This will mean that all buildings in this estate will not be higher than 1 storey building. We also agree that there will be only a maximum of 4 flats, where the owner chooses to build a block of flats.

spyder880:
OR

RULE 1B. That we allot plot numbers 22-33, 34-42, 43-52 and 53-55 for those of us who might want to build duplexes.
Plot numbers 10-17 for those of us who might want to build bungalows
Plot numbers 1-9 for those that might want to build multiple blocks of flats.

Plot numbers 1-9 for those that might want to build multiple blocks of flats.

The deplorable nature of Eket - Ibeno road is urgently begging for attention. The FRSC Eket Unit Command is calling on the appropriate authorities, the Akwa - Ibom State Government, Federal Government to please come to the aid of motorist plying this route by providing succor on this road or reconstructing the entire length of this road that leads to Exxon Mobil Producing Unlimited (Qua Iboe Terminal)

solomonwis: You see the thing is, in this part of the world (Nigeria) it is not advisable for anyone to go for upfront medical as the outcome of your visa application is dependent on a number of factors and given the visa refusal rate, it will be a waste of money, time and energy. Again, the duration of visa processing (especially with paper application) does not encourage for upfront medical. (This is in respect to TRV)

I know for certain upfront medical is not advisable for FSWP (with the exception of some family class permanent resident applicants).

Bottom line: Medical ought to be done after an instruction is issued to undergo and submit medical result (by applicants from Nigeria).

solomonwis: Oh I see! No wonder....Please before you confuse the guy, refer him to the thread for people with Study Permit application experience and If he's interested in FSWP (as I'd want to believe) please do not advise him to go for "upfront medicals".

It is a complete waste of money and energy!

solomonwis: Bottom line: SUBMIT QUICKLY WITH YOUR APPLICATION (As you'd be given further instructions). Ask those who apply for Study Permit!

solomonwis: OLD MAN, there was nowhere in the link where medical was to be done prior to instructions being issued. You were only advised to get your medicals done QUICKLY(as soon as possible)!

solomonwis: I disagree with your submission here.

For Canada, Medical examination prior to being instructed is not acceptable either for study permit or otherwise. You need to be instructed before you can go for medical examination.

saxywale: Upfront medical examinatio are not allowed. you would be notified by CHC to go for medical exam at designated clinics when you get to that stage.
