Chuck87: House please what is the best way to carry the cash to the US? Seeing that we will be searched by the customs people and their body will be hot if they see dollars on you

"Carry cash"? how much do you want to "carry" that you can not put in your pocket or luggage.

For those of you coming to maryland with nigeria driver's licence..

MVA will ask you to get a driving record from road safety Nigeria. Then when u get it, u will have to go to nigeria embassy @ washington DC for authentication to confirm how true the letter is. After that u will return it and get set for ur online test after that u will waiting for some 45days for road test. Then u will be issued with driver's licence

Is better u go for the learner permit.

My advice is once u come in maryland, just prepare for test once and for all.. Don't have a divided mind..* No playing things*

Most work here.. The first thiing u will be ask is do u have a driver's licence.

Most of our host are old sch and d system has really change...lolzzzz

Thanks
Re: Diversity Visa Immigrant? Welcome To America by jidex001(m): 11:51am On Aug 01, 2013
When u come to maryland.. In one way or the other. U have not got ur driver licence . Instantly go for state I'd. No state I'd or driver license . No work. Gba.
Love u all.

Congratulations for passing the written test. However, you will not receive any Driving/Learner Permit Card in the mail except you apply and pay a fee of $11.00 for it. The $25.00 fee you paid when you applied for the driver`s license is all you need to pay and you have until 90 days after the day you wrote the test to pass the Road Test. You have 3 attempts and you can only fail the road test 2 times. If you fail the 3rd time, you will have to apply again and start the process all over again. If you already know how to drive or have little knowledge, I will advise that you start practising parallel parking. Its a major aspect of the road test here in the USA. But if you do not know how to drive at all, then you need to apply for a Driving/Learner Permit asap so that you can be able to drive having a licensed driver of not less than 21 yrs old with at least 2 yrs of driving experience with you in the front seat anytime you are driving. You can go to any DMV office around you to practice the parallel parking during weekends only. Do not forget to study the Texas driver`s manual to know more about the rules. Very important! Hope this helps

It is not as tough as it sound. I know someone who completed the whole process within a week. I completed mine in 2 weeks because of my busy schedule. Knowing how to drive (partially) and studying the manual before taking the tests is the only way out. You won`t be taken to the highway or a busy road; just within a street. Going left, right several times observing the traffic signs and the traffic rules & regulations.

@ Adesoji,Temmy,Deji and all the active members of this forum,i want to appreciate you for the great jobs you are doing in this forum it is priceless.Got to know about this forum through my hubby and decided to check it out though i have been registered but inactive for years. I must say you guys are the best MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND REWARD YOU ALL IN WAYS YOU DO NOT EXPECT IN JESUS NAME AMEN. Remain blessed![font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]
Re: Diversity Visa Immigrant? Welcome To America by oyinyechi(f): 12:31am On Aug 05, 2013
sendtodeji: For folks interested in obtaining training and are concerned about the cost, you should contact the nearest WIA (Workforce Investment Act). They might be able to fund your much desired training/education. WIA is a federal government program operated through the states. Your training provider has to be registered with WIA for them to agree to pay your tuition.



Hi Deji,

Please can you throw more light concerning this WIA training/education funding. What are the requirements and how soon can one apply. Thanks for your quick response

missannie: I need a Job!!!!
Am a (School-Cer Holder) Any helpful Tips or Advice, I'll appreciate it.
I've applied in some of the popular glossaries stores here in d States; like Walmart, Walgreen etc
Which other industries can i apply Thanks

What state are you? Are you good with computers? By that I meant knowing your way around Office applications like Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Most people don't know that with a sound knowledge of productivity applications like the ones mentioned, you can land a nice job and not have to work at restaurants. I didn't know that too when I came in.

Hi Oyinyechi,

The requirements vary a little bit from state to state. Some state will require that you take a test. One of the requirements is that you are either unemployed or underemployed. What state are you at? I could help you look up some of the requirements.

Did you apply for a permit after paying $25.00 for the driver`s license? Because when I did mine at the DMV`s office on Babcock Rd, San Antonio TX. I only paid the $25.00 for the driver`s license and after passing the written test, I wanted to get a permit but the lady who was attending to me advised that it will cost $11.00 and that its going to be a waste of money since I have the opportunity of doing the road test 3 times with the $25.00 I paid already. I guess you were asked to pay the $11.00 when you want to do the road test because you already got a permit upon passing the written test...
