Hello,

What I would suggest is that you update your timeline under your profile so when you announce the achievement of new milestone on your application, people can easily relates to the timeline it has taken you to achieve that.

Some people have received PPR and have even gone to Accra to collect their visa yet they have not updated their profile. If this is done the constant request for share your timeline I suppose would be avoided.

A good example is Manubobby http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/timeline-for-pnp-from-new-delhi-t43102.0.html;msg1638222#msg1638222

All PPR holder should keep the house informed of how the event unfolded at Accra, no info is too small to despise as we all know it is not over till its over.

Looking forward to see one PRV holder to land this week.

Only the Jacksons so far. 1 out of 25 is like 4% performance.

God will watch over us all as we prepare to make the move.
Left lagos on monday 30th july with aero 7.15 am flight and landed accra 7.09 am accra time. Changed some money for taxi and running around at the airport. There is a burea de change at the airport. Exchange rate was 2.01 cedis to 1 dollar. Got to the Canadian high commission a few minutes after 8am and already met a loooooooooong que.
Joined the line and we were ushured in one after the other. The security details took my phones, tablet (tablet no be paracetamol o, i mean ipad and similar devices ;D ;D ;D ;D) and chargers. Proceeded to the security at the reception where i was asked to show a copy of the email sent to me to come pick my visa. After showing them the email, I signed the visitors register and was given a visitor tag to go see an immigration officer. Gave all my documents to her (2 passport photographs for each family member, Form IMM08 and the email) the officer asked that i put each passport photograph inside thier respective passports (Please dont write names on the back of the passport photographs, it will be rejected if u do). That was done and I was asked to wait outside for further details.
Waited outside with a huge crowd mostly nigerians till about 12noon when we were told our visas would be ready for pick up by 2.30-3pm. We were given the option to either go and come back or wait till the time.
I hit the road and went to do some exploration, visited buka restaurant in osu area and reffilled my tank with some nice nigerian dishes :P :P :P :P :P
Headed back to the embassy by 3pm. By about 4pm they started attending to PR applicants. about a few minutes to 5, I heard my name, proceeded to see the officer and I was given my Ugwu leaves and COPR. I thanked her and proceeded to my hotel to nack some bottles of chairmanses (no offence to pa EMO :P :P :P :P :P :P). Hit lagos the next day and the rest is history......
Hope that was detailed enough!

The reason is that it is easier to look at the timelines of everybody at a glance without scrolling up and down to know what other peoples timelines are.

I've been to IOM even went direct to IOM at accra, the eailiest ticket I could get was for 5 september which is too far for us for personal reasons. We wanted a date in the next 2 weeks but IOM couldnt deliver. So IOM deal is off for me, sadly though :( :( :( :(
But i've made other plans will update the house of my landing experience soon.
