Career / Re: How Are You Coping With ACCA Exam Fees Payment? by base83: 3:33pm On Jan 26
Remembered I made this comment that year and with just 3 papers left I have stopped writing exams for over 2 year.
How are people coping with ACCA fees and the exchange rate?
Maybe it's time I remove ACCA inview from my profile

I have been to two centres today and got the August/September reply too.
Please whoever has information on a centre actively still giving the first dose should assist with details.
The Sept date defeats the purpose of full vaccination before travel for Fall intake.

lawfree638:


This is true and equally not totally true. I'm sorry for using both.

It's true because an official once told me Vaccine is running low and wouldn't be a full scale till August.

However, I can categorically tell you that Vaccine is available (both first and second dose) but it's been hoarded. The playbook is knowing someone that can help, at times, it comes with a cost (the Nigeria scenario).

You can take the first dose today if you see a center that is administering such and in the next six weeks, then the second dose.

Congratulations ,
Please I need to ask you some few questions, I will be happy to receive response from you
1. Did you paste all these documents as a single pdf file to upload in each of these 1Letter of acceptance 2.POF SECTION and the rest?
2. Also, did you rent an apartment in advance because I saw where you wrote tenancy agreement
3. Lastly, did you have a table of content for your sop?
Thank you




1. Yes I PDF the documents into one PDF for each section. After combining I compressed to meet the specifications

2. The tenancy agreement mentioned is for my sponsor with his tenant, to show source of income (I mentioned in my sop that most of the funds for my school will come from his rental income)

3. No, but I used sub headings like Why MBA, why Canada, family etc

@base83 Congrats. When did your eligibility start?
Late April applicant are getting PPR. We've hardly heard from March and early April applicants. Maybe another office is now handling new applications.

I don't know if the "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements" means eligibility has started because i didn't receive any update in this regard. but it has been like that since my biometrics started showing completed

Thank you to everyone for the wishes, the Grace will transcend to every hopeful applicant.

Good evening everyone, I need information on payment for the visa application fee.
Gtbank is declining the transaction saying 235 CAD is more than the limit allowed
Is this the same with other bank cards or just GTB.
Islam for Muslims / Re: A Submissive Muslim Wife Suddenly Lost Interest In Sexual Intercourse by base83: 10:32am On Aug 21, 2020
I think you should ask her about the birth control method she is on, if she is on any. That is an angle you can examine, some hormonal control reduces libido in women to near zero. If that is the case, advise is to switch to non hormone base methods and take it easy with her. With time she'd get back to her old self.

Travel / Re: Updated Cost Of Transport Around Lagos Major Routes For Workers by base83: 2:19pm On Feb 15, 2020
Let me use my route as a detailed sample
Before:
Estate gate to tollgate: 50
Tollgate to cms: 200
Cms to tollgate(ikeja bus) : 250/300
Tollgate to estate gate: 50
Total = 550/600
Now:
Estate gate to tollgate : 100
Tollgate to cms: 250/300
Cms to tollgate :300/400
Tollgate to estate gate : 100
Total = 750/900
Then you have days where it's higher cause of traffic.

So many.
* big companies have seen a platform to advertised their product/ brand (due to traffic) thereby creating employment..

* the program is creating but direct and indirect employment. *I've u consider the number of people employe by BBN, * sub-contractors * fashion designers, you can go on with the list. Even tel.com is also a big beneficiary.

* to the contestants, whether u win or not that's a huge platform for them to sale themselves.. ( in return they can create a product, create a brand that can be bundle into a company thereby creating a chain of employment.

* its entertaining to those that enjoy it.. That u don't like it doesn't mean others don't.

*it's a big Blessing to the winner.

*whether u like it or not that's someone's business.. And the company aim is to maximize profit... Mind ur business they are not runing the show with ur money or the government fund.. Then why is it disturbing you... If u don't like it, don't watch it.. Make use of ur remote control.

Travel / Re: U.S. Non-immigrant Visas: We’re Listening by base83: 3:49pm On Jun 18, 2017
Hi Abujaniv, I have a situation here, hubby and I were denied visa this month so I need advise on reapplying. we were invited for his best friend wedding, the bestie stays in NJ while the wedding is in Maryland. So in filling our form we stated dat we will be staying at his place, so the officer said That he wasn't convinced why we will be landing/staying in NJ then have to travel all the way to Maryland. We told him it's cos the wife's family stays there and dat we first be with the groom before going for the wedding on the weekend.
Now do we reapply booking hotel in Maryland and staying there without going to nj before the wedding or maintain our initial stance with hope the we will meet a listening officer to avoid mismatch story.
Will really appreciate opinions.

Hi everyone,
I have been reading through this thread currently on page 200nsomething and I must say kudos to everyone that has contributed. I have learnt so much and am now reassured an agent cannot do more dn I will do.
Now jus applied to U of S currently uploading the required docs and awaiting one of my reference letter, studied Microbiology as an undergrad, finished 2012, nysc 2013/14, got a job in finance from 2014 till date. My question is in my SOP how do i justify the GAP from nysc till date cos employment history does not tally with education, n I want to continue with my line of study i.e. Microbiology.
Gurus in the house please help me fill in the gap

Thank you to the poster who clarified on the minimum amount due to zakat; because the annual gross salary of some of us is not even up to the nisaab. I guess sadaaqat is what people like that should be encourage to give. Salaam

BigBelleControl:
Salam alaykum, if one finds himself in an extreme situation where one can't do Itkaf in a mosque, is it possible to do it at home?
waleakun salam, I believe the answer to your question is No, as this was explained extensively by the OP's post. Even if it is a special area in your home meant for praying so far it does not fit into the "three mosques" then it cannot be use for the purpose. Salam

So happy for my girl Nat, truth is she always had a good heart even if she went by it the wrong way.
