FSW 2014 applicants from Nigeria - Let's network

[thorndike4u]

Hi everybody.I have been a closet member of this forum since november last year.This group has encouraged me when i was in the dark wood n it seem the process was not going to come to an end.The few times i posted i intentionally ommitted my updates cos i didnt want my situation to discourage people who had not waited as much as i did and again i didnt want people to keep asking about the progress of my journey cos it would have set me into a panic mode and kind of affected my faith.My error was made as a result of an overpayment which was processed.By the time it was discovered,a refund process was set in motion,this took my application process to another department within the embassy,i had to join the refund queue at the commerce department and so on and so forth.If i had known this group earlier on before the payment,i am sure things would have been different.
Anyway,all is history now,to the glory of God,i got my PPR request yesterday,14th of April,2016.My prayers are that God ll fast track all awaiting updates and give as many as are waiting,the grace of patience....surely,it shall end in praise and testimonies in Jesus name,amen.A big congratulations to all canadians in waiting,safe trip and best wishes in your new country.

hmmm all is well that ends well....Congrats on your PPR,hmmm patience is golden here.i just had medicals last week too after several months of waiting,and i got COA yesterday and hopefully they will send PPR soon...who initiated the process of refund for the overpayment?you or AVO? cos am also in that shoe if its a long thing make i just chill for them

Thank you friends,i appreciate.

@Sambade,AVO initiated it.They sent a refund form to me when they discovered the excess payment.And sometimes in February this year,i got a mail from the commerce department apologizing for the delay in the refund processing n wanted me to confirm my account details again,at a point,i got a call from d refund processing officer.

My good E-Family, I want to give an information to those who have gotten MR and PPR and those in waiting so everyone can learn and take advantage while still in Nigeria. Although we got our visa's in February, I deliberately fixed our travel date for August to give me enough time to close up some loose ends. While browsing I stumbled on this website
https://secure.settlementonlineprearrival.ca/login/index.php

It is a pre arrival settlement organization funded by the Canadian government. Anyone that has gotten MR or PPR can register and you will be linked with a pre-arrival settlement counselor in your chosen province whom you would have an online webcam meeting to discuss your needs. In my own case she requested for my resume before the meeting and when we had the meeting, she was highly impressed that it was Canadian standard. We talked about my career and skills that I will need to enable me settle in quickly as soon as I land, she also linked me up with a housing agent whom I will start communicating with two months before I land and we discussed a whole lot of stuffs especially things I will need to do while in Nigeria before landing and things I will do as soon as I land. She also registered me for five different pre arrival online courses related to my career and working in Canada, which I have already started with lots of assignments and quizes. She also sent me a 10 page plan of Action of my needs that we discussed.

For everyone who has received their MR and PPR, please do yourself a lot of good and check the link, take advantage of the program before you land, so you don't get confused, I will advise if possible do all the necessary homework in Nigeria before landing.

Cheers and Happy Weekend to all
