    NIGERIA APPLICANT PLEASE LET US NETWORK.

    How did ieps treat you? I happen to know a few of his old clients at the time he pioneered this CiC consultancy biz in nigeria, and they are all canadians now. I did read that the man passed away recently, could that be the reason why your app is delayed? I can imagine lots of bottlenecks to do...

    NIGERIA APPLICANT PLEASE LET US NETWORK.

    I am not familiar with the background info of this particular applicant, but i'd like to explain the reasons behind barsindoo's advice. The risks in asking ielts to forward test results to the visa office arises from diffrent scenarios 1. If Accra demands for ielts and give you 60days to provide...

    NIGERIA APPLICANT PLEASE LET US NETWORK.

    Tito: What happens if one fails to pass the driving test within the 60days? Can one use the intl license for a period longer than 60days? Not sure if you can assist with this scenario. Say Mr X has a UK license, but has been a little naughty in time past and had been chastised with 2point...

    NIGERIA APPLICANT PLEASE LET US NETWORK.

    That's very good. Most people i know had to wait upwards of 2 years to get your full grade of G - license, and had to endure orisirisi funny restrictions like passenger limits, night time driving ban etc during the long wait.

    NIGERIA APPLICANT PLEASE LET US NETWORK.

    Tito, thanks for the clarification. Your initial post just said "accra centre" and "600 visas" thereby leaving room for one to assume that you meant 600 visas for all applicants under Accra. Much clearer now, and i'm sure others who might have been stunned by that initial figure may now begin to...

    NIGERIA APPLICANT PLEASE LET US NETWORK.

    Dreamteam: Not landed yet. I'm fine thanks, and you?. We had our medicals done separately, one of us had it done in VI, and the others in UK. I don't think the DMPs are allowed to hold on endlessly to applicants test results, and this is why 1. The xray has to be interpreted by the Regional med...

    NIGERIA APPLICANT PLEASE LET US NETWORK.

    Way above that range sir, the quota for Accra has hovered around 9,000 visas for a few years now. What CiC has been doing is to play around with the allocation of the visas among the various classes. Emphasis is being laid on promoting Family class and the Provincial nominee schemes at mo, as...

    SENIOR MEMBERS PLEASE HELP REGARDING PAYMENT AT VISA OFFICES

    @ Neddy: I can see you're leaning towards going the US$ > Accra route. The main reason no one has been able to validate this is because its a new system, no one has done it yet, and there appears to be very scant info on it. True, CiC site says applicants struggling to get CAN$ from few...

    lagos medical cost

    My simple advice is this, do them a nice letter explaining what has happened, and provide lots of proofs of your paternity. Things like birth certs(though 9ja BCs don't count for much these days), family photos, several photos showing the baby at different stages of growth, hospital receipts...

    lagos medical cost

    dreamteam: Your medicals do not go to Accra directly, medicals are forwarded to Regional Medical Officers, and Accra falls under the Paris Regional Medical Office - so your medicals go to Paris for assessment, after which the Meds officer then uploads his assessment of your medicals into your...

    aner777, Apologies, i didn't respond to this earlier, as i thought other pple would point u in the right direction, and that you'll find answers to your questions by going through some 9ja threads. Nice to see you're looking into this canadian FSW thingy. Abisola has addressed your points...

    Naija - Aluta Continua!

    I do feel you on this one, it is hard to take. You might want to seek some expert legal advise on this issue. Shame, Mr Cohen does not accept to take on cases halfway. Try to take some time to go through the manual posted above, it is very rich in content, and sections 5.16 & 5.17 specifically...

    9ja birth certificates and passport

    BobbyB, There is some confusion about the Police Character Certificate which CiC demands, and Good Conduct Certificate which Nigerian Missions abroad undertake to process. Some people confuse the two, i being one of them, one does not thumbprint to get the Good conduct certificate from Nigerian...

    Sending Passport from Naija

    Congrats!!! I would like to chip in a lil bit, i had to register and open an account with DHL-staples(all because of canada pr), and it is true that DHL does not courier passports to and from some countries, and our dear country is amongst one of them. That is the official policy, and passports...

    Apologies to posters on this particular thread, i do know this wasn't addressed to me, but i would like to shed some light on this as someone who's had a first hand experience of the mis-application of the rules. This part of the one year residency requirement has been misinterpreted by CiC many...

    accra applicants

    You may send in the new one whilst the old one is still running. The guides and the oprational bulletins say so on the CiC site. You would be advised to withdraw one of the cases once you get to the finals of whichever case is quicker. If funding isn't an issue for you, i would advise you send...
