Snappyfingaz:The Sask advantage. Sask also has one of the cheapest phone and data plans in the country. Beer is one of the most expensive in the country though (for the alchoholics). 1 Like 1 Share |

Is computer engineering(repairing hardware) a good skill to take to Canada /USA? Can I get good job with such skill? Pls don't blast, I want to learn several skills because I plan to migrate someday. |

Same with UK visa? Is it as straightforward as that of US, based on someone's PR status? If not for the travel cost from Canada to the UK, I would have applied as well. ![]() ![]() ![]() I got the US Visa with 10 years validity as you correctly mentioned. Boss13: |

salford: Yeah. But for beer, I dont really see any difference personally oh. I usually dont go for price, I go for percentage. Most of the strong beers are usually on the cheap side compared to those water them de sell as beer. |

Newmum0615:Yep. (now u are making me doubt my own experience lol!...but I'm pretty sure I had a one way ticket) I made sure I went in to ask a few months before I had to leave. I had an access Bank account as well. Submitted passport, and visa etc. GTB refused, but Access Bank gave me. 1 Like |

ontarioissauga:Lol. No one likes going to attend an interview for visas. It's uncommon to be turned back as a Canadian, but it does happens once in a while. I don't personally know of anyone that has been turned back except the ones I see in the news like the guy that confessed to have smoked weed in the past or the lady that was going to sell her weaves. Americans do get turned back too. People living close to borders often travel to shop e.g Some of my work colleagues are currently on their way to Minot for shopping (black friday deals)..Its just about 3hrs drive away from where I work. |

Thanks very much for replying @Boss13 @maternal @jydexaus @Bsbabe Kai...I wish I consulted u guys before. Already paid for dropbox renewal (57k), but didnt go ahead to book an appointment when I discovered an interview was required (due to diff locations). So pls last question...if i land before my payment fee expires (Sept 2019), can I use this to book an appointment in Canada or i shd kukuma forget the 57k and start afresh? |

Newmum0615:Yeah GTB refused. said its only school n co they give. I was surprised when Access agreed and was still prepared to be rejected when the Customer Service lady went up stairs to confirm with my documents. But she came down n asked me to come back a few a hours later. I got the debit at work n went back to pick it up. Try the branch I used.. Its the branch near Pal Pensions on that Zenith bank road in V.I after GTB if you are going towards Dominos or that VCP (not sure of the name) hotel. 5 Likes |

jydexaus: Not true. Unless if you have something in your background or they feel you're shady. On average it takes 10 min. Show proof of employment along with no criminality, and you'll get your 10 year visa within 10 min. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Not that i believed the story. I was almost pressured into calling Justin Trudeau to confirm since according to him, we have unfettered access to the people in authority. What made me not to attempt it is that i don't want the authorities thinking my visa issuance was a mistake for making such enquiries. How can they open their doors to only Nigerians? The desperation of these agents is apalling. Thanks all for your responses. 6 Likes |

Newmum0615:Something I thought to mention to you.. you may have already done it. if you have, then ignore. Please ask whoever is shipping your stuff the best way to pack. Sometimes they have to repack it after you give it to them, also to protect from damage from water or handling. 3 Likes |

tobore187:Yeah we learn everyday. If your job entails working with a computer all day, then you should know you need periodic breaks in natural light to relieve your eyes from the strain of blue light from screens. Though there are also glases that helps with this, still its generally recommended that one takes breaks. 4 Likes 2 Shares |
