Hi. For the US PCC you will send your application to FBI. You can go to FBI identity history summary webpage and look up police staterooms in your area, where you go to get the finger prints done. It costs $5 for a card. You can submit up to five if you wish. Then you submit that with your application to FBI. The details will be on the website.

The important thing is when do you plan to leave the US? The FBI report takes 10-12 weeks from date of delivery at their facility. As long as you are back in Nigeria by the time FBI completes the report that is fine.

Blackbuddy:
PCC for the US can only be obtained through their FBI, http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/police-cert/north-america/united-states.asp

Kontagious:
Once you've crossed the cumulative 6 months period, you surely do need your fbi pcc, regardless of your highest stay period. If you won't be going back the to US soon (before you submit your application), you should apply for it as soon as possible if you've not.

TOEFL is really easy. Never taken GMAT, so I may not help you too much there. Look at University of Saskatchewan and Regina, they are cheap.

Hahahahaha @ 'mission to relocate his entire family to Canada".

Yeah my bro told me that yesterday an employee of Egypt Air at the airline counter asked him that he must show that he has $1000 cash on him because he has a one-way ticket. The Nigerian employee of the airline said that Egypt Air doesn't want to foot the bill in case he is sent back at the Port of Entry; the employee said that this is because the airline has had to foot a lot of such bills for student visa holders lately lately (don't know if they are lying or not).

Regardless, it sounds extremely illegal for an airline to behave this way. They didn't allow my bro to check-in until he asked them if he could instead sign a letter of undertaking saying he'd foot the bill should he be sent back home at the POE. This is completely ridiculous. It even sounds like an attempted extortion where if you show the cash the employee takes a portion of it to enrich his pocket.

Anyone who experiences this should not let them deny you check-in. If it's possible, take a video on the incident, make a post of this illegal activity on Twitter or Instagram and mention the International Aviation body on Twitter (@IATA), Guardian Nigeria (@guardiannigeria), and Transport Canada (@Transport_gc), etc. Mention that your flight was booked from Lagos to Toronto or wherever.

Better yet, assert yourself and don't let the airline bully you.

@dapoddon: how did you convince them to let you check in? Did you have to find the $1000 cash?

Alantobie:
I did it in February and it says valid for 3 months. I used it when I applied in June. Can I still use it?

jnyuwa02:
What exactly is the reason? If it's finance, you know you can easily correct the mistake by paying tuition. That would do it! Or get an additional sponsor. As you know there are no guarantees getting it through the Express Entry even with your score. Don't give up that easily. I will advice you keep trying for the visa while at the same time doing the EE. "A bird in hand" (TRV) they say, "is worth ten in the bush." (EE)

If you interpret my telling him to go and read up as "tearing him down and glorifying myself" then that's just sad.

Because if you really read my post, you'd see that I In no way attempted to GLORIFY myself or talk about my personal experience or successes. It's not personal.

Just as the gurus have said before, read up then ask questions after reading up.

Cscd1234:
I was just going to ignore this until I saw that you don't want to read up from beginning of the thread.

Do you realise that we all read up??!
Do you also know there is something called google?!
You want information but you don't want to work hard to get it?!

I don't understand most of you guys on here especially the newbies.
You come and post questions that have already been answered in previous threads and expect us to sound like a broken record, repeating answers.

That is why the white men said if you want to hide something from a black man put it in a book and be rest assured that they won't read it.

But I'm really glad that most of us black people are excelling and exceeding their expectations of us. Everyday we are getting goodnews of high flying men and women on this thread that really gladens my heart, all because they made a choice to work hard and get things done!!!

So don't be that black man that refused to read. Better start reading up.

Anyone travelled with over thousand of dollars in cash to Canada and how did it go, any hiccups?
