Yes. I agree with you. Another name for BC is Bring Cash (BC). Car insurance monopoly, higher gas etc. We know that we are paying for good weather in BC compared to other provinces. We called it Sunshine tax but if you have a good job, BC is Paradise. Another things is that most nigerians start from these cold provinces and later move to BC once they have enough money to live here. I will advise people that want to move to BC to start from not too big cities then move to a bigger cities in future. In kelowna, i bought my first 2 bedroom 2 bathroom condo 2017 for $200k. Like i always tell me friends in bigger cities. there is always a rat race in bigger cities. If you are making big money in bigger cities, please stay but if not, please think again. It takes me 3 hours driving to vancouver if i want to see bigger cities. snoop4dem: 23 Likes 8 Shares |

rainazoe:Yes you would definitely hand over the naija license. Having the FRSC letter and license will only give you exemptions if you have years of driving under your belt. i.e. you can't show up with a spanking new license and get the exemption. The license has to be at least one year old to exempt you from the G1 Also it must be original license, they check. To verify that your license is genuine, go to the link below, enter your license number and DoB. If your details come up, it's genuine. If it doesn't, it's fake - even if you did it in FRSC office https://www.nigeriadriverslicence.org/dlApplication/reissue 21 Likes 21 Shares |

AZeD1:Wow nice!! I'm finding more and more reasons to port to Ontario. In Alberta and Saskatchewan, they collect the license from you. In Alberta, it's even a crime for you to hold two licenses - so you can't come back to Nigeria and do a reissue 1 Like |

Good day, please will really appreciate some clarification. I've posted on the sister thread as well: Medicals are due to expire in 2 months, even if PPR and COPR are issued within this timeframe, chances of landing before expiration of medicals are very slim at this point. If asked to redo medicals (which hasn't been asked yet), is there a way to fast track this process? Will it be just a case of walking into any of the chosen physicians for this or one has to go through the long process of booking an appointment and is the amount to redo medicals same as the initial amount paid? Thanks |

snoop4dem:I was offered a job in Kelowna about 2 years ago and was thinking of buying a home if i relocated to BC. The houses I viewed online where very beautiful and were around 600 to 750k. They were mostly custom built houses. At that time, one won't be able to buy similar custom builds in Calgary for same amount. There are however lots of 450k to 500k houses in Calgary which will help people get their feets into the housing market if they have a decent wage. These homes will usually be attached/detached cookie cutter house within that price range. Vancouver though...I don't know how people can afford to live in that city.... 2 Likes |

If you are asked to redo medicals, you book appointment again like the first process. However, you would have a maximum of 1 month to redo the medicals (thats what applied in my case) so you have to book with the clinic with closest date. Amount for medical is as per rate on the day of medical. I dont think you can fast track after you redo medicals but request for passport happened few days after my medicals and visa issued is valid till the expiration of new medical anniversary or passport expiration - whichever comes first. nat138: 2 Likes |
