Thanks! I cudnt do the test yesterday, but I got d report of when I tested last year, viral load was 30000 before I started zeffix drug. What do u feel?

Caveat: I am not a Doctor, as such am not qualified to give a professional opinion on this. However, I am aware that any viral load above 20,000 is considered elevated and indicates active viral replication. I would suggest you force it down to 10,000; although less than 2000 would have been ideal.

Additionally, because Hep B directly impacts the liver, I would suggest you also do an Ultrasound test on your liver and some other liver function test. While CIC panel doctor are not bound to take in 3rd party test results, they may however leverage on such relevant results in assessing the level of risk, as a significantly damage liver exposes CIC to a potential huge medical cost.

The good news is, as long as your liver is not impaired and your viral level is low, you would scale the medical hurdle.

U couldn't stop ur friend because he was....if it was ur sis would u have left him to rape her.........u ar wicked ND ur wife is a monster...people die everyday...can u imagine

My thought exactly.

1. How could he have stood by and watched an innocent underage molested by his equally evil friend?
2. Why did he have to rope in an innocent person? Why not just say -- " oh, it was dark, as such, I didn't see the face of the perpetrator.

My take is -- he is a very evil person and would likely not own up to his sins. Fortunately for karma, he has an equally evil wife that would hesistate to drag him down the moment he screws with her.

As much as I value restitution and paying for a loss caused by one, it is important to be wise about it.


If you confess now, will the penalty amount to bringing back the innocent soul killed? No. You just must be wise about it. Try find out about the lady and the guy's family. Help them if you can but try to apply wisdom so you won't end up regretting. You do not need anyone to condemn you now. Be sincere in asking for forgiveness from God and let's see if you'll feel better.


Your wife has lost her conscience.

How exactly is your conscience any better than his wife's?

Oh, my bad!!! My head was thinking of a rejection scenario.

You would definitely get an ITA with the very next draw.

Thanks I will go for test today to know current status, I have been on medication. I don't mind if my application takes longer than 6months am just worried my PNP nomination will expire by jul 2016. Sorry my spouse declined ITA b4 I got home.

ITA is usually not what you decline like that as you have 60days to mull over your options. Did you get the ITA via pnp? If yes, I suggest you quickly recreate your profile and contact your province to transfer your nomination to your new profile. I have seen people do this with visa refusal cases (mostly as a result of incomplete documents)

Hi guys,pls who has an idea how we are to 'take' this required funds to Canada after getting PR. I suppose the money shown in the POF is meant to be travelled with. Do we use traveller's cheque? Does one have to open a Canadian account and transfer the funds before travelling?

It's not mandatory that you have all the cash physically on you. For instance, I intend to fly in with just $5000 in cash, with the rest in my account. Obviously, I would have to present my recent bank statement plus atm card at landing. The statement prove I have the minimum required fund and the atm prove I have easy access to the money.

However, I am not sure how the new clamp down on foreign withdrawal by CBN would affect this approach.

Good evening. Guys I just received ITA my but am scared of the medical, I have Hep B but I have been on medication for over 5months now. Pls seniors who have done medicals what do u suggest, or do I decline my Ita, also my spouse is just few weeks pregnant. Need a way out

Don't decline. What's your viral load? When last did you get tested? If your viral load is quite low, you can go ahead and do your medicals. Ensure you answer YES to the statutory question on disease while filling your post ITA form and make sure you clarify that with a detailed LOE (borders on treatment, low viral load, risk of infecting others and negligible cost of treatment)

During the medicals, also answer YES when the MD ask the question on HEP B. They would require you to do further --HEP A, B and C quantitative tests (unfortunately, this attracts additional cost). If they confirm your viral load to be low and risk of infecting others is low, you are in the clear; otherwise (high viral load) you would required to continue your treatment for a couple of months and re-present yourself for re-test.

For your wife, there are 2 options;

1. She would present herself for her medicals now, and would be required to do ALL tests except xray. With this, you would still get the medical assessment summary sheet which allows you to submit a legitimate application. In this arrangement, your overall medical is NOT passed under your wife completes her Xray test after baby delivery. This also implies that your application would not be processed within the 6-months timeline.

2. Where possible, some CIC test centres make available safety lead shield that protects the baby against hazardous rays. That way, she is able to complete all her test without the need to wait till delivery.

Honestly and in my own opinion, no visa is worth this risk, as such, option 1 is much desirable.

At the moment, I have filled everything and I can't find it, not even where to upload the documents. Do I need to submit first?

I don't think you can effect final submission without paying. I can't remember the exact steps (filled mine over 6 months), however, I would suggest you keep navigating to the next actionable step. You would see the customized document check list and an upload menu for each item on the list.

Good day people, please how can I use Fixed Deposit as a proof of fund for EE. I have some money in my account I will like to fix it. I will be applying by June. For how long do I fix the money?

You can fix it, however, I would be more comfortable if you en-cashed it before your final application. Fixed deposit funds are seen as encumbered funds in Canada as you usually wouldn't cash it before maturity date.

Please I have a question. If in Sep 2015, I had 3 million in my account and in December 2015 this amount has dropped to say 2.2million as I was spending out of the money. If in January 2016, I top up the amount to 3 million again how long would I have had the 3 million in my account?

Brief and little fluctuation in your account balance is permissible even it dipped below the minimum POF requirement, which is why CIC requested a 6 months AVERAGE balance. Just ensure that -- as at when you are applying, your POF document shows amount over the minimum funds required and possibly keep the funds there for 6 months (counting from Sept)

I submitted my app when most apps were processed in Canada so mine took 5 months. I heard that now that apps are being processes at their local VO's the turnaround time is faster.

Thanks, I meant turnaround time for COPR and visa stamping after PPR. You said you sent your passport for stamping through VFS to AVO, how long did it take to have your passport back?

Hello all, my friend wants to use his Payoneer account statement instead of his Nigerian account, is this allowed?

hmmm, tricky. Payoneer is not your regular bank and I doubt if they can truly avail your friend of the POF in the format required by CIC.

If I were your friend and the funds in my Payoneer accounts are truly mine; I would transfer the equivalent of my POF amount to my regular/existing bank account, and use both statements. Payoneer statement is necessary to prove the source of major inflow to my regular account and to prove that I have always had the money for over 6 months; while the regular bank account statement & document would serve as the actual POF.

No you can't. In addition, in some countries it's illegal post your passport outside one's country of residence. I know India doesn't allow this.

So vfs Lagos only sends to AVO. That sucks, would probably give them a call tomorrow as well.

I used VFS Global and no they don't require self addressed envelopes, you pay for the courier charge and they'll return it to you after your visa has been stamped.

Can I use the vfs in lagos for VOs other than AVO. In other words, can the vfs mail your passport to NDVO in India for visa stamping.

Good to see you hurstling already. May God bless your hurstle.

Fast one, which courier service did you use to mail your international passport to the Canadian consulate for your COPR and did you enclose a return envelop in the original parcel. I discussed with someone in one of the top 2 courier services in Nigeria, the dude stated that his company does not permit the enclosure of a return envelop in the outgoing/to parcel.

This money is too much ooo. 82 million for a 1day dinner? Haba!!! While some of us still prefer APC over PDP, we should also learn to be critical of their actions when erred.

Amaechi may have done well in his 1st term as governor, however, I believe he squandered so much of the state resources in his 2nd term.

Hello all,
I have a few questions to ask and I'm sure you'll figure how naive i am at this sad
I'm about to apply for the FSW Under the E.E which means I have started nothing!

I have read previous posts and think I know the steps. So yesterday I registered for IELTS [Though that's another sad story as I applied and paid online with my GTB debit card but the money was deducted in dollars which means I paid an equivalent of N70,200 instead of N52,000]

My questions:
*Since I need to do IELT and WES verification before creating a profile, Won't I need a reference number to give WES so they can put this on my documents when sending to Canada? Or is my name sufficient for them to sort it out over there?
*Does the B.C need to send my IELTS straight to canada as well or all I need to do is enter my scores when creating a profile?
* I have never collected a transcript and I have only my BSC, is it possible for WES to send it to me as well as to E.E?

This are the questions I have for now and I hope you can take out time to respond based on your experience.

Thank you all.

p.s, I already checked on the CIC site to see if I qualify, thankfully I do.

You are just need to provide -- the report form number, the date as well as your ILETS score while creating your EE profile

For your ECA assessment, you are required to arrange to have your transcript sent to WES directly from your Alma mata in a sealed envelop. I believe there also a transcript request form that has to be included. The entire steps/process should be well detailed on WES website.

And it was so convenient to compare the 2 years without recourse to oil revenues across the 2 years. A breakdown of last year's custom revenue clearly indicated that the bulk of it came from oil. On the other hand, the bulk of this year's custom revenue came from non-oil sectors, with amount generated from the oil sector dropping significantly.
