FSW 2014 applicants from Nigeria - Let's network

[Ed_b_good]

Wow....Congratulations hagnes on your successful landing and your new baby, that was cutting it real close, we give God praise for you guys.

Dear All,

This is a thank you message for the forum members who have been so supportive throughout from 2014. I have shared pm with some of them including bonblu, bbjm, pipis husband,neyobash who have all encouraged me to march forward. We landed in Canada on 04.04.16 and we got a baby girl the day we landed. It was challenging to say the least.

We received our passports back on 28.03.16 and wife was already 39 weeks pregnant. We were unsure what to do cos the risks were high but God has already settled it tho we didn't know that. To the Glory of God, it was as if the check in counters and hostesses couldn't see the pregnancy even tho she had a big belly. Everything went well but the pain for my wife was too much and she was taken from YYC in an ambulance to the airport. She delivered around 4-5 hours later. Baby was delivered at 39 weeks, 5 days.Because of the emergency, my processing was fast tracked and they only checked my passport and my COPR. My wife was not landed cos she didn't go through immigration. We went to the immigration on 06.04.16 and she was officially landed and her paper was dated as 04.04.16.

It took strenght, determination and support to make the journey. We were advised that AVO might not be willing to issue the visa for the new born if she was born before we travelled. Our visas were also due to expire in June 2016 so it wd have been challenging to make a passport for the baby cos we had to go to nigeria (Have lived in Qatar for over 5 years), send the passport to AVO and await further instructions which could have resulted in delays or expiration of our visas.

FSW 2014 almost took 2 years but we thank God it has ended in praise. BBJM is a treasure. we have not even met and she was already sending food and wipes to us at the hospital. We finally met and she was there at christening of our baby. Lots of good people on this forum.

For all the people who are reaching out and helping others, divine help will always locate them. AMEN

We give God all the glory as we received our Visas & COPR on Friday.
Thanks everyone for all your contribution and support on this forum.

Congratulations Hagnes on the arrival of your daughter and on your successful landing in Canada. I am glad all worked out well for your family.

Just an advice to all on getting good deals on tickets for your trip, especially those looking at flying KLM. I will advice you search directly on their website: Klm.com or Klm.com.ng, very late at night or very early in the morning, while also putting the days of travel into consideration. Better still you can send a message to their Customer service on Twitter or Facebook to search for affordable flexible tickets for you. You will be surprised on what you will get compared to what travel agents and other travel websites are offering.

Congrats on your spouse MR, you can use Qlife but you have to book appointment with them. You can update them about your wife address.

Thanks tbaba for your response.

This is to announce the receipt of my PPR yesterday 15th April. I thank God for the uncommon grace to pursue this project with patience and I thank all the forum members for the information made available here.

I have a quick question; I was asked to pay the right of permanent residency fee for myself and my spouse, our two children were not mentioned. Are they now exempted?

Congratulations

 

[KINGSLEY JOHN]

Glory be to God, Visa & COPR received yesterday for the entire family
God is to be praised

Congratulation

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

Thanks so much for this. I appreciate.
