hayor2014: Hi Hayor, register for which before leaving Nigeria, the ACCA or CPA? |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by hayor2014(m): 2:18am On Nov 16, 2019 |
mokikeoj: The ACCA, cos I understand that once you land in Canada and you were not already an ACCA member before coming, CPA will not accept the ACCA certification/qualification from you... |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by Y2Kbaba: 3:29am On Nov 16, 2019 |
hayor2014: Hello, Pls do you mean ACCA qualified or one must be registered as a student member of ACCA before coming in from Nigeria? I have 3 papers to qualification while in Nigeria and I landed in Canada few months ago so I'm still seeking info on ways to complete the papers left and get CPA certification. Landed seniors please assist as well. Thank you. |

For those in Alberta and Environs that may need this *PASSPORT RENEWAL INTERVENTION* The executive of the NCAC has once again concluded arrangements with the Nigeria High Commission Ottawa to render passport issuance/renewal services in Calgary. This service is primarily for NCAC members and their families in good financial standing as at May 31st, 2019. Non-members are welcome to take advantage of this opportunity. Applicable fees for members and non-members are listed below. Please note the following: Participating in this exercise is optional, applicants have the choice to have their passports issued or renewed at the Nigerian High Commission in Ottawa. NCAC is only facilitating the passport intervention exercise, hence all inquiries should be directed to the Nigerian High Commission and not the volunteers helping with this exercise. To date, past interventions executed by the NCAC in conjunction with the Nigerian High Commission have saved our community over $800,000. This included all associated cost of travelling to Ottawa to obtain Nigerian passport. It is our expectation that this initiative would continue to save our community significant amount of money and time. NCAC is able to deliver our programs at cost effective rates to participants mostly from the precious time contributions of our dedicated volunteers. Please we will need volunteers for the 4 days that we will execute this program. 1. Location All appointments to collect documents and meet with embassy officials will take place at the Nigeria House located at: 319, 3132 26th Street NE, Calgary 2. The Fees In addition to the fees payable on the Nigerian High Commission portal, the following fees shall apply: Members: $100 application fee per family and $150 administrative fee per applicant (e.g: A member with a family of 5 would pay $850. From our estimates same family travelling to Ottawa will have costs of about $3,000) Non-Members: $100 application fee per family and $200 administrative fee per applicant (e.g A non-member with a family of 5 would pay $1100) This money is payable when applicants are presenting documents to the NCAC. You can pay with bank draft payable to Nigerian Canadian Association of Calgary, Credit Card, Debit Card or Cash 3. Important Dates: November 29th: Registration for the passport intervention closes at midnight MST November 29th - November 30th: Documents collection at the Nigeria House. THIS IS BASED ON APPOINTMENT ONLY. You will receive your appointment date once registration is completed. Appointment dates will be sent out to the email addresses provided during the registration process. Please do not contact us for appointment schedules prior to November 29th. December 6th - 8th: Appointments with embassy officials to complete the process and have bio-metrics taken. This is strictly based on appointments to be scheduled once documents have been vetted by the embassy and a green light has been given. You will receive another appointment date for this meeting. 4. The Process Please click on the link below to access the procedure for E-Passport application. E-Passport Application Procedures and Requirements The procedure outlines how to access the application form; fees to be paid and other information needed for the application. Please note that you need to complete all the steps and complete the NCAC passport registration form located at this link https://docs.google.com/data+collection+form Also remember to include a pre-paid self addressed express post envelope (MARKED NATIONAL NOT REGIONAL) to ship your passport back to you. Thank you, Nigerian Canadian Association of Calgary Shared as received. 13 Likes 8 Shares |

toboy: Hmm Canada is the 2nd largest country with just a population of 39million the country is very big but can be so boring because everyone mind their business there it's gonna be that easy to make friends unless u have a dating app or you're in school.. The Canadians are polite but they prefer to keep their problems to themselves instead of sharing it with others. And their Winter!!! Jeez... That is when the real boredom sets in.. The harsh winter there can make u stay at home all day for months because u can't really go outside catch some fun unlike their Summer! Their summer is the best to enjoy in The country... But they have longer winter than summer.. Their summer is short like 4months of summer and 6months of winter! Those who enjoy Canada the most are those with their family, if u go alone boredom can make u regret I have relatives there that do gist me about Canada Lass Lass Canada is a lovable and livable country Make God just answer my prayer make i enter cannyland this December 27 Likes 2 Shares |

Please I need clarification on this ACCA/CPA issue. My husby has 3 more papers to write. His intention is to write 2 papers in Nigeria and the remaining one in Canada. Does he mean he won't be able to convert his ACCA certificate to CPA upon completion? Thank you. |

[Pls how can we confirm original LMIA. I heard there is fake by all these agents quote author=SixSigma1 post=74426295] @francoteeboy2626 As a Nigerian living in Nigeria you sure can get a temporary work permit to Canada from Nigeria if you get hired for a job that the employer can prove that the job is legitimately required and no Canadian or person with permanent resident can do the job or wants to do the job. So, getting hired to play talking drum would qualify if that job could be proven to be legitimately required by the employer and no Canadian or person with permanent resident status can do the job or wants to do the job. Many Nigerians known to me are legitimately in Canada today through Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) for jobs like live-in caregiver/nanny for a Nigerian family, Nigerian local language teachers (Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa.....), playing local drums (full time) like @francoteeboy2626 wants to do etc. So, read the links in @joo2018 post that I have quoted for the legitimate way to approach this. As a final note, please do not use any agent. They can not help you in anyway. @joo2018: You have said it all. The part in bold above about raising a LMIA and availability/willingness of Citizen or PR to do the job is the key for Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP). @czaratwork: I believe @joo2018 post and my comments above clarify your comment. The jobs Nigerians get work permit for are typically culturally inclined where it is easy to prove that no citizen or PR is available or willing to do the job. For these type of jobs, there is no reason to use an agent to get work permit through the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP). For this reason, they are told they are about to be defrauded if they are using agents and this is true. @rainazoe: No, you do not have to be in Canada already before you can be sponsored as a Nigerian through the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP).[/quote] |
