Dear beloved Brothers and Sisters,

It's my pleasure to advise you all that seglad has already landed on the 12th of March. Brampton is wonderful and Canada is good. All perceived problems at the point of entry were no problems at all, we were cleared within minutes but depends on how many landing immigrants on the very day and how many officers are on duty.

This is how it went at point of entry, please.
1.we filled the landing card given to us in the plane.
2.At the counter, we told the officer that, we are here to complete our landing. We were immediately directed to the immigration counter.
3.At the immigration counter, we were asked for our corps, address in Canada, How much money we are bringing into Canada,the officer filled and complete the forms and gave us a copy of the corps and welcome us into Canada.
4.We were given welcome packages and directed to the Custom counter.
5. At the custom we presented the officer our pre-filled B4, B4A and fund declaration forms. The officer was very happy that we have pre-filled our forms by saving him time and stress to type all goods to follow list and POF form.
6. We presented a domiciliary Dollar Bank statements, cheque and cash as our POF, what i noticed was that the officer was not interested in our cash but accepted our bank statements, the HSBC cheque and recorded it on the computers.
6. We paid $2 for trolley to convey our bags and were out of the airport and went to brampton, which is a 20 minutes drive from the airport.

Oloye has been so wonderful, he came to welcome us and took us to his house and we had a long chat about Canada and how things work here.

I shall keep you posted more

Thanks

Warmest felicitations for the smooth landing and successful completion of Canadian immigration process. Wishing you and your family a very successful life Canada.I hope the weather is not too cold. Me,am still chilling waiting for weather improvement in 'Winterpeg'.
Please can you answer this question for me.Why do you have your POF in your domiciliary account? Are you planning to come back to Nigeria very soon or are there other ways of accessing the account from Canada?Also have you tried any of the credit cards(Visa/Mastercard) issued from Naija at any ATM points there? Can they be used globally as the banks make us believe?

Thanks sooo much for your prompt response Naija pickin and igbe(hope i can call u that) you guys are awesome! Going by the figure i should have 3.5mil in my account,(where i see that money?)must this figure be complete? so sorry for all the troubles....

....and of course, what is your NOC code?
You will need to know if your occupation cap is full, or almost full to whatever extent. That will give you an idea of how much you need to hurry!!!!!

There is no point in carrying the whole cash or purchase a bank draft when the money is readily available in US Dollars Account. If you choose to purchase a bank draft, no problem but you must have cash for your immediate use.This money can be transfered into canada when you come here you will open an account,both US and CAN dollars same bank, the money in 9ja US account will be transfered into the US dollars account you will open here, later transfer it to CAN dollars, both account will be linked together for easy transactions. This was how i did mine. I adopt this method in order to be prudent and get my money transfer little by little when needed rather than spending the whole money at a go or the wishes to have everything at a go and bankrupt. My us dollar account has a provision of a VISA DEBIT CARD, which i have withdrew money at ATM at the airport to hire trolley. You may want to know the bank i use, skye bank is the name of the bank.

Remember to ask your bank for their sort-code, IBAN, swift code, intermediary bank and full address, and name and address of your local bank . You will need the information to be able to get your money into canada
