Some can eat but have no food....
Some have food but cannot eat......
Meanwhile, except you saw the ITA, the person may be telling lies...because i cannot understand the cluelessness (if there is a word like this).

Obi1conte:
It's just scary how people take a life changing decision and just feel they would wobble and stumble to their goal.
I met someone today by chance who got ITA yesterday but knows little or nothing about the process.
No passport for kids yet
No POF
He ddn't know he is not suppose 2 spend from POF when he finally gathers it
Hasn't booked medical appointment yet
Wondering how he would get his ref letter from his employer (and he isn't the PA ooo)
Thought PR would come after 60days, he didn't know you start counting after AOR
I was just like waoh!!!
Then he said he was using an agent based in canada like that was an excuse for his ignorance

I've been to some airports in the US. Washington Dulles, LAX and LIT to be precise. You pay for the use of trolley. Stop shaming Nigeria.

Nigerians that is our way.....my joy is that with time, we shall all learn.
Much respect for the indians in that regard.
There is obviously something about ''black man''.

softandmoist:
This is not me whining or anything. Just something I noticed since landing here in Canada and going out and about.
Many of our Nigerian brothers act all cold when you greet them then get warm when greeted by a white.
Really.
Like your sucking up will change your complexion?
The friendly ones know better, I suppose. They give you pointers on how you can get settled in easily and integrate.
One man snubbed me this morning when I greeted him twice at my daughter's school, but got all chatty with one woman who was white�. His daughter and mine are in the same class so I was wondering what the superiority complex was all about.
Shior.
What pained me most for him was that the woman didn't hear anything he was saying because even on the verge of swallowing his tongue to speak Canadian English, she wasn't just understanding. Kikikikiki.
Ok, seriously now.

Please seniors, let's be nice to ourselves. Tenkiu.

I had to go back to look for your post.
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOUR FAMILY.
God bless your spouse and kids for the understanding.
Please make sure you treat them to plenty chicken from now on.

You can get a new Birth Certificate from the NPC.
However, it will be marked as RE-ISSUE.
I did for my son because the one i did at birth got stained with a drink.
It was marked re - issued. I just stapled the two together.
He turned three last month.

DrMrsCK:
In a similar situation. The name on my passport is a compound name but mother's name on my daughter's birth certificate is just my husband's name. I think I will just swear an affidavit to that effect.

Try to read. this issue has been dealt with before.

OneLegInCanada:
Hi people,

Abeg, who has used ONLY NYSC experience as work experience?

My concern is that 1 month was spent in camp, so time spent in PPA is less than 12 months.

Please help guys. My NYSC job as an Oil Field Assesor is skilled. My current bank job is C, so doesn't help me.

I want to use ONLY NYSC. How do I show the full 12 months?

Thanks.

As it is she is your sister. Since she is a minor i believe you can apply to be her legal guardian, that way you can add her as dependent.

Dizzy007:
Hi guys, please lawyers, seniors I need some advice. A friend of mine wants to start his EE application, his parents are currently late. They had legally adopted a girl about 7 years ago, complete with all the adoption papers. So now he's her guardian/brother/sole relative. She's about 10 years old now. Please does he need to legally adopt her again to include her in his application as his dependent? or just indicate that he's her guardian?
Thanks.

I enjoyed this. The bolded word....i know where you're from...lol.

einsteino:
I am not sure if this is helpful or relates to what we discuss here, but I hope to show guys a side to Living in Canada they may not expect.

[/b]Ibaboo! [b].

Congratulations.
So true about the bolded. And with solutions too.

Wakanowdotcom:

ICES website should have the answers.

drcynthia:
Greetings all...pls o....I have a question, can someone outline the process of verifying a master degree certificate using ICES ? I heard WES requires WAEC and IQAS is super slow. The one I know is MCC for doctors....sorry for the question....true d reading thru the pages but no way....just a brief summary would help. Thanks you in advance.

No...laser scan visualisation.....

ijoseda:
NA 3-D visualization that one go be!

We need to annoint you.

Ifeoma77:
Ah, you are a good shild. My brain did not even think of 'bump' I was busy visualising Mrs Wiz with an impressive, accident-causing bakassi

Sorry i have to do this. It is spelt as wedding and not weeding. I would have ignored but i noticed you spelt it twice as weeding.
Lets make conscious effort to proof read what we write. You appear as someone who knows how to write in English. Just be conscious of your spelling.

omotapeju:
Good morning House, I need a factual information about this. my brother was issued a us b1/b2 visa September 2017 with the aim of traveling to florida for our cousin weeding who married a US citizen but due to a training at work(he works with a bank) he could not make the weeding. now he plans to get his leave approved in November and travel to New york for his vacation.is there anything he need to carry along in case hes been asked at the point of entry why he delayed his trip which was for weeding that hold last year October. Please assist

Mcstan18 and Sleekchic....we are lost.

Let's assume his friend didn't answer the questions well enough. Did all other students who were denied not answer their questions to?
To me, it is better US issues a statement deterring Nigerians from applying for visas than rejecting applications frivolously.
I know many genuine visitors and students who have been denied.

justwise:
How do you know that he answered those questions perfectly?

I'm no doctor but I'll advise you invest some money in cerelec and feed your little one before you visit the paediatrician. Since she's active I doubt there's any underlying medical issue. Just stay positive. all will be well.

Temas:
Hello house.. I know God want to make this testimony a sweet one. well we had our medical with qlife on Monday. daughter was flagged for being underweight ( 3rd percentile) whatever that means. we were told CIC might return our case for further test. we received a call today that CIC did return our case that daughter should see a paediatrician and further report is needed( qlife is charging 30k). Anything we should be worry about against daughter's health and our application. we are yet to get an appointment with the paediatrician.

The real MVP!!! Weldone sir.

Topsmamen:
Good morning my good folks. I believe we are all fine and dandy. I am highly overwhelmed by your prayers and best wishes. It is my heart's utmost desire that God will see each and everyone of us through this EE journey and we will all come out victorious in Jesus Name. May celebrations and glad tidings of great joy never cease from our lives.

@dumprep: *sigh* Wow! This is too much! Thanks a lot sis for the prayers and praises. I am eternally grateful that God has crowned our efforts with joy and success.

Congratulations to all ITA/PPR recipients, all successful IELTS takers and all pool divers
Congrats in advance to ITA and PPR hopefuls and to everybody in their respective EE stages. It can only get better. It will definitely get better.

God bless y'all . Cheers!

ShininLite:
Good morning guys,

Please I have a question about professional certificate evaluation.

I have a friend who just aced ielts LWRS 8.5,9,9,9

IT field with more than 3 years experience. 25 years old with just BSc degree.

Q: Will one of his numerous international IT CERTIFICATES qualify as a second post secondary certificates to earn him more crs score?

Thank you for your response.

Great day ahead!

Sorry to say, i think you missed the point here.

Akpasomething:
This is uncalled for...
People have different reasons for doing things..
Many of us are in the hinterlands and may not be able to readjust our schedules as things comes up.
I've done medicals, but I haven't even gotten ITA. I did Medicals because I had an engagement in Lagos and I decided to kill 2 birds with one stone.

Too awesome....

Tojued:
Wow. (though the bro's love and sacrifice just too awesome sha)

You are a clown.....

Ramj:

WOW....Congratulations.
I laughed and cried reading your post.

dumprep:
My great family. It has happened! The joy I feel right now cannot be described. My chest o!
Thank you All.
Make I drop this phone and hold my dear passport tight because this bus conductor is looking at me like .........

Haba...It have not reach like that na. Why

sinie:
"people like me?"
Dear sir, you know NOTHING about me so I will respectfully say GO TO HELL....
And FYI I will still do my medicals before I get ITA so if you like HANG yourself

First of all, your job duties determine what NOC you choose. Disregard your degree when choosing NOC.
Secondly, if you are practising law in Nigeria then NOC 4112 it is.
Or do you do the duties under NOC 1242? Then choose NOC 1242.

harry41:
Hello Good people,

I need your kind advice.

I am a lawyer but I am confused about the best NOC to pick. I have gone through NOC 4112 and it bests suits me but I am skeptical about the employment requirements which include

1. •Two to three years of undergraduate studies or, in Quebec, completion of a college program and A bachelor's degree from a recognized law school and Successful completion of the bar examination and completion of a period of articling are required.
•Licensing by the provincial or territorial law society is required.

can I assume this relates to studies in Nigeria and not Canada? or should I go with NOC 1242 for legal administrative assistants? please helpppp

Congratulations to all those who got ITA and PPR.

Long post alert ...

It all started in 2016 when I was about traveling to Afghanistan. As a WHO intern in a health related mission, I was very happy with the job. But then the mission to Afghanistan. Initially, I was very pessimistic about what to expect from the journey, but the cash benefit was too good to ignore. I had to grab the offer when it was presented by my boss.
Then I had already aced my IELTS on first setting maxing out CLB 10 on all modules. I was ecstatic. But the scores for that year (2016) was between 460 and above. I was having less.

I jettisoned the idea to immigrate to Canada and concentrated fully on the task ahead... Trip to Afghanistan.

The fear of Al-qaeda, ISIS, Boko Haram etc were constantly resounding in my head. But I was determined and ready to face the challenge head on.

Two weeks to our departure date, my girlfriend/fiance called and told me she was pregnant and that the parents are already aware...

...

...

To be Continued...



It's page 419.



I just dey watch una raised eyebrows in 3D.

_{runs away}

Congratulations to all those who aced their IELTS.
For those who did not get their desired score, fire again.

Una de get information sha. How did you find out about minister Ralph?

purplerain:
Thank you. Ralph is a Canadian Minister. When your application has passed normal processing time (6 months), you can send an email to him, asking for an update. He would get in touch with IRCC, and communicate whatever he gets to you.

Looks like contacting Australia helps too. This naija people are just sharing 6.5. I wish I followed up with Australia.

joo2018:
Looks like IDP is doing good on remarks.
