The US government acknowledges the Customary Court documents as they are all valid under Nigerian law.

Thank u sir

Pls for someone who got married in Nigeria Customarily and already had his marriage broken down without any paper back up, in fact his ex-wife has already remarried here in Nigeria, but the guy plans to remarry his old gf who is a US citizen. How can he prove that his former marriage is broken down because he needs to remarry in the US. Can he try and get a Customary Court divorce for his previous marriage?
And secondly, can a nigeria Customary Court marriage divorce certificate be acceptable in the US for evidence of previous divorce and remarriage in the US ? Or must he approach a High Court for the divorce ?
Thanks

LadyGuinivere:
A magistrate does not have the jurisdiction to make an order decree nissi (divorce)
A customary court can only be involved in divorce proceedings if the marriage was contracted customarily eg only Igba nkwu/Wine carrying.
So by process of elimination and the Law in existence, yes a High court Judge is the court that has jurisdiction to dissolve a marriage after certain conditions are met.

Thank u very much for this education. I really appreciate your extensive teaching. Thanks

LadyGuinivere:
U need to ask your account officer that. Last I heard it was 300 for stanbic. U need to notify zenith that u are using your card in the US else it won't work

Thanks a lot LadyG
God bless u

LadyGuinivere:
Lol @trekkable.
My brother. Use google map calculate the distance. Use that same Google map check your options.
There is a train run by the airport that leaves into the city. Research the best option for you to get a greyhound station.
Tip for you: while changing money, ask for smaller bills for these your wakarings. Imagine pulling out a 100 to buy a 10 dollar ticket...

Thanks a trillion.
Pls how much maximum can I withdrawal on ATM in the US using my Zenith Bank MasterCard daily ? Can I withdraw $500 per day using the card on a United States ATM machine ?
Thanks

signature2012:
I doubt it,though it may be possible,but will advice you book when you are in new york or pay cash when you are about to board to ohio @ greyhound station in new york.

OK thanks bro
But how best can I get to the greyhound station after landing at the JFK airport. Is the station a treckable one ?
Thanks

Please can I book a greyhound bus for a trip from New York to Ohio with my Nigeria MasterCard right from here in Nigeria ?

Greetings my VO. Pls I want to ask u this question. If my B1B2 visa expires on March 30, 2016, when is the maximum time I can travel to the US ? In other words, with my visit visa expiring on the 30th of March, 2016, can I still use the same visa to travel and depart Nigeria on the 25th of March, 2016, ( 5 days before the visa expires ), and if yes, on my arrival at the POE, will I still likely be given 6 months at the POE ?

Hello the great VO. Thanks for your help answering peoples question.
My uncle recently had issues with his wife and they are now divorced legally at a High Court ( their marriage has been about 5 years old now with 2 kids bestowed unto them)
All efforts were put in place to avert the divorce, but it didn't work
Now, my uncle decides to remarry his new girlfriend he met sometimes ago he visited the US about 18 months ago. His new girlfriend is a US citizen.
Can he legally remarry the US citizen as his new wife ?
Secondly, must his new girl friend come to Nigeria for the marriage, OR, can he visit her and do the marriage in the US ? (My uncle has a valid visit visa )
Lastly, after their marriage, is it possible for my uncle to relocate to the US and start a job there in the US ? My uncle is a Pharmacist.
Thank u sir

SAMUELS3:
Please, state the reasons ticked by CiC for denial let people help you out. Peace

No reason was mentioned specifically, he only said "I am refusing your application" and the following statements were mentioned..........in making a decision on an application, a number of factors are considered. These may include but are not limited to: whether the person has been accepted to study at a Canadian educational institution, the information in the travel and identity documents, the persons ability to pay for the trip, to pay tuition fees and to support himself or herself while in Canada, whether the person is likely to respect the conditions of his or her admission in Canada, wheather the person is inadmissible to Canada and whether the person would be likely to leave Canada at the end of his authorized stay.
Above are the reasons. Comments pls

Greetings sir's
I am 21 years old guy, completed my secondary school in 2011, currently passed all my O'level results.
I applied for an undergraduate studies ( business administration ) at Sault College, Ontario, Canada and I was offered an admission, but was unfortunately denied a student visa 2 weeks ago.
I already paid an acceptance fee of $1000, and now I have been denied a visa
However, the school have given me another admission when I informed them that I was denied a visa.
Now, I want to reapply for a visa since the school have decided to give me the admission again.
Here is my previous situation.....
Year of graduation from my secondary school is 2011, since then, I had a 1 year computer training, and after completed it, I started a part time job temporarily at a HealthCare company as a clerical officer.
My sponsor for the school was my mom's cooperative society at her place of work, where I was made her beneficiary to get a scholarship for her 12 years hard work. So, I was giving a letter to this effect, and the account statement with cash of around 14million naira.
Here are the documents I submitted :
Police report, medicals, statement of account of the coop where my mom work, who is my sponsor,
What could be responsible for my denial ?
Now I want to reapply, pls what and what do I need to add to my applications
Thank u
