Good afternoon seniors,

Please i would like to know the process of sending passports to Accra. Do i have to put a separate envelope for the returning documents? I am asking this because DHL said they do not offer this service.

I would be very grateful for some advise as soon as possible as my given time to send my passports is fast nearing an end.

Thank you seniors,

Thank you


Contact Neyobash on this forum. It is not compulsory it must be DHL.

Hello people, my wife and I landed in Calgary on the 22nd of April. It was a smooth but long trip. We flew on klm via Amsterdam. We had to wait for 7 hrs to connect to Calgary. It was a long boring wait.

We landed in YYC at about 2.40pm (an hr late due to extreme weather conditions). The immigration officer directed us to another room marked with a big "A". We were attended to by a friendly immigration officer named woods. He collected our disembarkment card and travel documents, gave me a copy of form b4 to fill. He stamped the form and gave me a copy to keep. No questions on funds we were carrying nor pof. After signing the Copr, he congratulated me and told me that am now a permanent resident of canada, that I have every right just like a citizen.He asked me to keep my copy of COPR very safe. He told me to expect my PR card in two months or three months.

We could not register for our SIN before leaving the airport as we were exhausted and a friend was already waiting for over 2 hours. We made it home in less than 15 minutes. Hopefully, on Monday, we will pick up our SIN, get to open our accounts, health cards and do on.

The weather has been interesting, yesterday, we experienced light rainfall in the morning, some hail and snow flakes and light sunshine in the afternoon. Drove around the neighborhood, and went out to convert some funds and to pick up money gram funds I sent before leaving nigeria...in all, the people are very friendly, the environment is beautiful.

So far so very good. To God be the glory!!!

Once again, thanks to this great family....God bless you all and perfect everyone's desire in Jesus Name...Amen

CONGRATS ON YOUR LANDING, GOD WILL FAVOUR YOU IN THE NEW LAND. Can you please enlighten some of us the procedures for sending moneygram funds, so some of us who are still trying to figure out how to proceed with getting dollars can learn.

Congrats to everyone with updates. God has done it and will still do it for us. For those waiting, fret not it will be done. Every delay is for a purpose, my MR delay was for a reason, I got married last weekend something I never thought would happen before I leave Naija, if my timeline was as projected, I probably would have left Naija a single lady, lol. But God always has a plan. To all MR faithfuls, I join my faith with yours to pronounce that God will do it for us at the appointed time. Shalom.

Congrats on your wedding,Every delay has a purpose, and God who saw the end from the beginning and decided you must leave Nigeria with your spouse. Congrats once again

Good afternoon seniors,

Please I am having issues with DHL as regards to the pre-paid self addressed envelope. DHL in UK do not seen to do this service. Please seniors, how do i break it down to them. Also, must the service(pre-paid delivery envelope)be from DHL as well.

kindly advise seniors.

In my case, I bought two envelopes, addressed one from Canada to Accra and the other from Accra to Canada, put the one from Accra to Canada(return) in the one going to Accra alongside the docs asked for.

I guess DHL officials know about it(wasn't a stress for me) u will charged for both ways and that's it.

 

[MzWillz]

Thank you Pipi's Husband, Marbetia, EasyJay, Christamario, T baba et al. Avo has been updated. Awaiting their response.

I had similar issues as @Ghledhow. I got my PPR on the 30th March and I was asked to include a prepaid return envelope, DHL recommended. I went to DHL in Brampton (I am in Canada on WP) and they told me they can not do a prepaid return envelope.

Eventually I called UPS customer service and a very nice lady I spoke to advised me to create an account on UPS online, create a shipping label to use to send to Accra and then create a return shipping label, Accra to Canada, which I printed out and affixed to an envelop and put inside my packaged documents to Accra. I then called UPS to pickup the documents. You may try and see if you can do the same thing with UPS UK

(By the way it was while researching how I can send the prepaid envelop from Canada that I stumbled on this thread and then registered on Canadavisa)
