I don't know if you've gotten a reply to this yet, people have shared contacts for individuals you can use, i believe it is through NAHCO.

CARGO OOOO!!! I MADE THE MISTAKE OF SETTLING FOR EXTRA LUGGAGE. I'm still regretting that decision.

It is allowed to bring a part but you must have a way to prove you really do have the money back home as they occasionally ask for proof. I even advice leaving some back home if you have family ties there. You wouldnt have to look for who to exchange with when you need to send money back home to them. Also, you can sell at a better rate to individuals over time as compared to bringing in USD and converting at ridiculous rates with banks here.

Somewhere around U of C. This could have been Lekki but there’s no sand/dust on the floor and the skies are clear.

Thank you for this priceless information.

Whiteshirtsonly:


Hey Johnnybravo... If you got the same adr as you on April 15 (payslips, salary bank deposits, updated POF, schedule a and add. Family.

For the payslips and bank deposits, I went back 7 months. I had the bank deposits printed by the bank only only the days deposits were made (that's 7 sheets for bank deposit statement and 7 sheets for the payslips).

Please be aware that the link given in the adr to upload the documents is not the only place you upload to. Please check your profile, under the status of your PR Application, you will notice that your "action is required". When you go into your PR Application, you will have to upload the documents individually - it also has a "required by" column showing the deadline to upload. I almost missed this, please check it out.

johnnybravo1990:
Please o, I just realized I have to submit all the documents for my ADR(I found out my file is in Accra) in one file through the link in the ADR message. How do I compress all my documents to one file with a maximum size of 3.5MB? My bank statements covering my 4 years of experience run into about 35 pages; my different pay slips, for the 4 years of experience, can be up to 48 slips or pages; and the schedule A form and Additional family information should take up to 8 pages. Altogether all these can get up to 80 pages. There is no way I can compress all this a 3.5MB file. Those that submitted Accra ADRs, how una take do am? Or you guys just submitted only few pages of banks statements and slips?

Please help!

Hello to everyone in the house. I've been a silent reader all the while just because I had to scroll through all the threads from Part 1 to the current thread. This is to avoid asking questions you gurus have taken time to address in the past.

I really appreciate you all. I heard about this CAN PR thing last year. I simulated my score at the time and it wasn't encouraging. And after I checked how much the POF for a family of four would be, coupled with the facts that age was really no more on my side and more so, I was yet to know of the existence of a goldmine in these threads, I gave up (that last year)!

Not quite long, my interest was rekindled by a friend (and his wife of course) who got PPR and advised I give it a serious try. I have been researching (on here) ever since. Eventhough I still think of/worry about the huge money involved now but have rather concluded I'll have to bid my time and take things a step after the other in this long, tasking and draining journey.

Thanks to the men and women in here who, out of their kind hearts/benevolence, have continually shown others the way forward. Quite a few monikers have stuck to memory in the course of my reading; Zandora, 40manlappy, Newmum, Joo, Cochtrane, Nobody, Ifeoma77, Stencil (always sounding like pencil), Workaholics Ladymarshall and Topsmamen, and so on... And yes, there's this moniker too, he helps in putting others through IELTS Writing (How on earth did I forget that 'name'?). Once corrected someone who was revelling on how he finally made IELTS (writing had been his weak point until after two attempts or so) but failed to acknowledge his (the trainer) input.

So many wonderful PPR scripts read so far, with mixed challenges/stories in the course of chasing them but of course, Deboks' was so hilarious. I can't forget that moniker in a hurry. Infact, I would sugget she should edit to Tiptoe_Deboks already! �(I'm not forgetting how she had to dig deep to endure like the Abuja guy turned Lagos Taxifyer).

I'll say it's simply because of the hard works most of these people (mentioned above) have put in, both to the previous & current threads that I rather decided to read, read and read through all the threads to prevent myself from asking unnecessary (in fairness and in my opinion) questions. I suggest fellow newbies do the same. I managed to crawl into page 104 early this morning and thought I was up to date. I blinked afterwards and we're already in page 113! � These pages move so fast at a baffling rate! Interestingly, most of the questions getting asked in the new pages are more often, repeated questions.

Permit me to say once again to the top gurus in this thread, you guys are jewels, priceless as such! What would we even do without you?

Congratulations @whiteshirtsonly. Your story and timeline is inspiring and it is also exciting to see a ghost/silent reader come out to share their PPR story.
A very big thank you

@ the bolded confirms what I keep telling people close to me that we are our own problem in Nigeria. Every average man is either corrupt or too greedy.
Yea,it's really just sad. No unity, love or respect for one another. Hopefully we'd be able to learn a few from other cultures and find a way to uplift Nigeria in the nearest future

@Ladymarshall, just be ready to become bony since you are skinny already ������.

Great Job on your PPR write up, you practically touched every part of it. Your determination came through and you didn’t hesitate to share it with the world so I will be scoring you 8.7/10 so you can dash the 0.3 out to the custom officers on your way out in July.

Determination and perseverance is the soul of this Canada immigration thing.

I hereby celebrate with your family for this great feat and also thanking them for their support.

Not a bad score, I dash the next PPR ghost reader / storyteller 0.7 as inspiration to others
Thanks a lot again for the well wishes

ladymarshall:
Lmao! You became skinny while waiting. For some of us skinny by default, we will turn to bones and skeletons then while waiting
hehehe all the same, it will end in praise.

Congratulations!!! Happy for you. You'll be our first ghost reader btw, the others are silent but in flesh
Yasss.. Where my medal at!? It's only right to give back.

Journey mercies for your trip and all the best in Canada.
Amen Amen.. Thanks a lot sis
