Travel / Re: Please Help.. Step By Step Procedure To Board A Flight by ifegy: 5:51am On Oct 14, 2019
Gulher:
I'm travelling out of Nigeria for the first time. It is also my my first time of going to the airport. For those with the experience, please what are the procedures? Step by step. From dropping from the uber and entering the airport at Lagos, to the point I board the plane, all the checks and stops. Do they allow family members follow one into the airport? How many? Can i go with food and water? I'm nervous I no wan embarrass myself lol. cheesy

*This is generally applicable information; you may need to modify it for your circumstances. For instance, if it's a really small, local airport dealing with just a few flights a day, things may not be as strict or structured as in a bigger, busier airport.

-Go to the airline website and check in for your flight online ahead of time, today or early tomorrow, if you can-- will save you time at the airport and possibly save you from not getting on board, if the flight is overbooked

-Print out your boarding pass so you know your flight number, departure time, boarding gate, boarding time (note: different from/earlier than departure time!)

-Head to the airport early. Give yourself time to get there about a couple of hours before the flight, at least. You never know what might happen with traffic, or when you get there, especially since you haven't done this before

-Don't forget your passport/travel ID (since it's a local flight you might not need a passport)

-Head to the check in counter for your airline, at the airport; get a luggage tag for any luggage you're checking in (i.e., anything that's not hand luggage) and drop off the checked luggage there. Try not to over-pack your checked or hand luggage, or you might have issues with overweight luggage.

-Go through security. There should be signs directing you to where this is. Or just ask. You may have to take off shoes, coats, etc; so bear that in mind when dressing- wear stuff that's easy-on-easy-off

-No liquids or gels in your hand luggage unless they're really small (for international flights, at least; not sure if that applies to domestic)

-Keep a eye on your stuff as it passes through security (if it has to go through an x-ray machine, for instance); you want to make sure everything that goes in, comes out

-No metals in your pocket (keys, jewellery) in case you have to pass through a body scanner while passing through security. Metal will beep, and you may have to undergo another scan

-Find your gate. There is normally a counter around there. Sit close to that counter so you can see and hear clearly when boarding is announced-- the speaker system may not be optimal.

-If you think you'll be hungry, you can take stuff like snack bars, chocolate bars, granola bars (not sure if that's available there)-- basically, stuff like that is not likely to be confiscated. There may or may not be places to get food once you get past security (eg if the airport is really small). You'll have to get water once you get past security, though.

-Get on board (hopefully flight is not delayed). Put your hand luggage in the overhead bin or under the seat in front of you. Fasten your seat belt. Listen to the safety instructions. Enjoy the flight!

Travel / Re: Calgary Or Ottawa by ifegy: 5:28pm On Aug 26, 2019
If your concern is the cost of living, Ottawa is not going to eat up the entire extra pay. You can find a residential area that suits your budget and commute to work. If you are concerned about offending family and friends in Calgary, you can make plans to go and visit them when you have time off.
Note that your current salary is leverage for negotiating your next raise. If you take a higher paying job, you set yourself up for an even higher one down the road. Your salary will create a perception of your worth in the eyes of future recruiters, right or wrong. Their mindset for higher paid individuals is that that they have to 'up their game' with them. They will believe they have to present to you better and higher paying jobs than your current one, in order to entice you. If you take the lesser paying one now, in most cases you will have to somehow 'earn your way' to the higher level one, before you get offered something higher than that, in the future.
IT security is a very lucrative and mobile career. As a Canadian, you can work globally with relative ease. You can get an even higher paying job than the one in Ottawa in another part of the world. What would your friends and family say then? What you would you say?
Make up your own mind and do what you know is best for you.

Graciousbee:
Hello dear fam,

Please I want to make an enquiry about BA. If you have 2 stop overs before your final destination, at what point do you get your luggages. Like travelling to Atlanta, and the port of entry is Dallas. Will baggages be released to passengers at Dallas or at the final destination which is Atlanta.

Thank you.

When your luggage is checked in at the your port of departure, there will be a tag placed on it that will indicate both the port of check in, the ports of transit and, in bold, the final port to which your luggage is checked through. The ports are in code: ATL= Atlanta, DFW = Dallas, etc. If you see in bold ATL as the last listed port on the tag, that means your luggage is checked all way through to Atlanta; and if you see DFW, that means you have to pick it up at DFW, re check it and re enter through security for your boarding.

Depending on the airline, you may be able to track your luggage while it is in transit by using the information on the portion of the luggage tag which will be handed to you at your initial port of check in.

Hold on to the luggage tag until you finally pick up your luggage as you'll need it if you need to follow up on lost or delayed luggage. In some parts of the world the tag you're holding gets checked by airport security to make sure it matches the tag on the luggage you claim before you are allowed to leave the airport.

Ethiopian airline bears all cost. But we also had to buy some basics as all our bags were checked in already.

According to them most Air Canada aircrafts were grounded so all flights are fully booked so if for any reason you miss your original flight, it maybe difficult to get booked on the next.

Hold on to the tickets for any such costs you personally incur. You should be able file a claim on their website. Such claims are typically filed when airlines lose or delay your baggage. Since yours were checked in, you should stand a good chance.

(and remember those payslips are not going to tally with the bank statement you handed in) You are right as this got me worried right from the day I submitted my application as my bank statements never showed any transactions taking place in Lagos the location that was used as where I worked. Cos I leave and do all my my things in another state not Lagos where they claim I work and receive salaries. Please what’s you guys suggestions
for me going forward and reapplying again how soon should I? And what other things should I do?

Sir, trying again to get a visa should not be the main concern right now. You may have received a ban for misrepresentation due to the fraudulent documents submitted (remember, you are responsible for any documents put forward in your name). You should probably look into how to get what’s called the ‘GCMS’ notes on your application (detailed reasons behind your refusal) and review them. You will need to have someone in Canada get them for you. If you choose to go ahead and reapply, you’ll probably waste money. Any information you submit will be compared against what you previously handed in.

Sorry, I don't have any info on the IELTS question. There are several threads in the travel section about immigrating to Canada, including taking the IELTS. Search through the section and ask questions in any/all of them. Some one will assist you. All the best. Your husband as a skilled professional should also research the process, as applying together would likely be beneficial. Hope things work out for you.

Thanks so much d person arranging it for us gas a company over there already according to him n is planning sending us an invite he told once once our documents are approved we will go for biometrics

Unfortunately, this is sounding more and more like a scam. If he truly has a company over there, he would know how difficult it is for Canadian employers to bring in foreign workers. They have to literally prove that no one else in Canada can do the job. If he truly had jobs for you, he would advise you to go via the official immigration process because he would know that a job offer can be made to someone who has gone through that process and qualified to immigrate. He has not told you this because there is no such company as he described and quite plainly, he is planning on scamming you. And, I apologize for bringing this up, but bringing in a foreign worker from Africa in the manner you described just does not happen. Two ways this will play out: he will either keep asking you to pay more and more money, while spinning all sorts of stories about why the documents are being delayed, or he will have fake visas placed in your passports, which will be detected at the airport and get you turned back, and also almost certainly prevent you from getting real visas in the future.
I apologize if this is harsh, but you do not have to let yourself be taken advantage of. You are a trained professional. Do the research on how to immigrate based on your skills, whether to Canada, Australia, New Zealand or other countries which have programs for taking in skilled professionals from around the world. It will take longer for you to go through that process than for you to hand over money to this individual, but that is the only way you will ultimately get to your goal.

Travel history? I have no travel history (virgin passport)
I am not also married (single)
Monthly salary? I am into business. so months can be few thousands and some months few million. (all these funds are always entering and leaving within days. The 6 months statement from the account I submitted was close to 27M but 1.1M was the available balance before I submitted my application on the 8th of Feb 2019 (Paper submission Lagos).

Conference related to my work? No not related I never knew until the day I submitted my application cause an agent told me there was a Canada link that invitation will be sent that all I needed to do was provide my passport and data while they handle the rest.

I never knew what they (agent) were using to prepare my travel until the day I submitted and this does not relate to what I do.


Documents I can remember I submitted because I just glanced through before submiitting that day.

1. Reference letter from my bank
2. 6 months bank account state (over 25m inflow and outflow for 6months steadily active with 1.1m available balance before I submitted)
3. two landed properties receipts
4. The conference invitation reservation/confirmation letter (about $700 payment was made for the conference)
5. Letter of introduction from the nigeria organisation they used for the process
6. Letter of self introduction
7. Letter of confirmation of the same organisation
8. Hotel reservation (wish I also confirmed myself by calling the hotel)
9. Flight booking
10. Payslip (some months) from the same nigeria organisation used.

The only thing strange to me is the organisation used on my behalf. But every other things used that I also provided are all correct.

Please whats your advice and suggestions as regards reapplying now or later. I wasn't desperate to travel until a friend told me about this agent link because somebody we know from this agent got his last year

Sounds like you've got quite a few issues with your application. If someone signed you up for a conference you knew nothing about, with an organization that even to you seemed 'strange', provided payslips from the organization while you are a business man who works for himself not the organization (and remember those payslips are not going to tally with the bank statement you handed in), then they basically submitted fraudulent documents for you. The refusal means this was likely detected. That is a bigger problem than whether or not you have traveled before or have 'home ties'. Unfortunately, you are responsible for whatever was handed in to the High Commission, not whomever did it for you.

We are not going as visitors I may Ned to ask d agent d type of visa he is getting for us. Once our visa is ready we were asked to pay certain amount of money that will cover our rent for one year. Note this money will only be paid once we hv our visa, also d plan includes getting a job for us in other words d job will b made available for us. Initially we were told we couldn’t go with d kids until after six months we send for them . But when I them they were jus below 5 he said it’s ok for them to come along cos it would hv Ben more difficult if Dey were above 10 years.

This does not sound like a real offer. It seems you are in the process of being scammed. It is highly unlikely that employers in Canada will be looking to hire people from other countries in the manner you have described, for a number of reasons; mainly, because there is an organized immigration program run by the government to bring in qualified workers. If you are a lawyer you should be looking into immigrating as a skilled worker. Please take time to research the process, on cic.gc.ca and on the several threads in the travel section. Hopefully, you have not handed over any money already. Do not allow any agents sell you up the river. You can do the immigration process yourself. Thousands of people from around the world do it themselves every year.
Just to add, as a general rule, asking people to pay money so that foreign employment can be arranged for them is a typical format used by scam artists.

You're probably right. Shoppers is great for some things but pricier on others (e.g. definitely not a go-to place for groceries, for those outlets which carry some). No worries, you'll eventually figure out the 'where-to-go-for-the best price-on-xyz' side of things.

Thing about skilled immigration is It has to be profession aligned with course of study if am not wrong. Av studied that part for a while and think I should take this opportunity now.

However, am not sure if I have stated the visa type anywhr on this thread. tnx for the info anyway. will be helpful.

Visa type pretty clear.

Study some more. The move you want to make now will cost you far more than you think, and not just in monetary terms. The gain from taking the time to legally migrate will be far more than you realize.

Although I earn a decent pay here at the moment.


Would u all advise I migrate or remain?

You obtained a non-immigrant visa for visiting purposes and wish to not just visit, but remain, in the USA. Very bad idea. You are a trained, experienced professional. There are several countries which provide opportunities open for such individuals to immigrate legally, allowing you to live, work, travel, study, raise your family and access whatever social services are available, i.e., live the life you really want. You should spend time researching skilled immigration (there are some threads on nairaland- Canada, Australia, etc.) and work toward that. It will take more time and effort than taking the next available flight on your current visa, but it will get you to your ultimate goal.

you are in Canada. What do you know about the happenings in the US? What I'm saying is not something in the news or made known to the public. It's an in house affairs between state governments and the companies. Companies have to pay tax to the state government. How will they be able to pay if they are short of workers, and how will the states be able to boost their revenues if the companies are shot down for lack of workers. Remember, these are jobs Americans don't wanna do. That's the rationale behind it.

Completely wrong rationale.

All legally. All na by proper information. Only those who are informed. I personally know if a company that couldn't get enough legal workers to work for them. Because of the nature of the kind of business they operate in. The government officially allowed the company to employ a given number of illegals because the job cannot be left undone so far they will be remitting their taxes. So many other organizations like that. Note: I don't encourage illegality in anyway. Just saying what I know.

Some parts of Houston is fine. Just that all stores are closed, but am very certain once the airport is open then you ll be fine

Actually, it's pretty bad here. A few streets here and there are not flooded but you're pretty much stuck in 'dry islands' and you can't go far because of the pervasive floods. The airport may open but remember water levels still have to go down considerably before you can get around freely; power may still be out in some areas, etc. Rain should stop Friday, but there's more rain forecast next week. It's a rapidly changing situation (another dam just started over spilling this morning, and it's not clear where that water is going to go). All to say, keep monitoring, and if at all possible consider getting a plan B, like another close by location; just in case. Hopefully it gets better soonest.

Those going to Houston and most prob el paso. I doubt if there ll be flights there because of Harvey. It's serious .

Houston is in shut down. Severely flooded. Airports are closed.
