vcole: Registering a car or getting license plates are done at the registries. There is usually one within the community where you live. Google license and registry around xyz and it should pop up their contact info. Insurance companies in my experience cater to everyone. However everyone gets charged different premiums. As you wouldn't have any Canadian driving experience, you would most likely get charged slightly higher. Check out TD insurance. A phone call to get a quote should do the trick. Have your VIN number on hand though. Sorry to ask this question but when you did your vehicle insurance, did TD request you pay the lump sum at once cos I'm trying to get a monthly payment plan and its been a tall order. The quote im getting from TD IS HIGH TO PAY ONCE. Would appreciate any advise. Thanks |

Tojued: Bonjour house (this greeting should work regardless of timezone ). Thanks in advance for reading and responding.
Cost aside, is it really difficult getting a spot in daycare? Calgary to be specific.
I'm seeing news articles of 600 names on waiting list, etc. (mostly ontario sha). If this is the case, will it ever be possible to take advantage of Alberta's new $25 a day ELCC centres?
I prefer proper daycare because the boy is already in KG1 here. Abi do dayhomes have early learning programmes too? In my mind I see them as equivalent of creche here (eat and sleep) But na the ELCC still win am sha, because even with the daily cap, day care subsidies still apply. Meaning you might get to pay almost zero for daycare at the end of the day.

I'm sure it will. The fact that the passport was held back is apparently a good sign from all that I have read. It is just a matter of time. How much time is the issue. Do you have a deadline you have to meet? School resumes 9th of august. Want to travel next month |

Yes o. Please have you checked the CEAC visa status website? I can just imagine what you must be feeling. My parents could barely sleep themselves. It had been such a harrowing few days.
I pray that the God that caused joy to come in my life will also cause you to smile and laugh. I have. It's still under administrative processing. But everyone keeps assuring me that it will come out. |

Praise God. It has been a harrowing 3 days.
I'd really like to thank NL for the fantastic information and support I have received over this whole visa application process.

Hello.
I am currently in the same situation. After the interview I was told that I would have to undergo administrative processing. The lady didn't initially tell me how long. When I pressed, she said a week or so. This is Day 3. My passport is still with the embassy.
The wait is terrible! I am just going through my days like a zombie. Neither here nor there. Can't even feel anything. ![angry](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/angry.png) Hey guys. I'm also in this boat for one of my kids. Meanwhile my other child and mine have been picked up at DHL office.This is going on week 2. The wait is killing. |

Emmyirab: Hello guys.. my second visa interview is on the 17th. I have prepared answers to some questions I think I would be asked that day. School resumes Sept. 8th and this might be my last shot for this semester. Pls guys, help analyze, criticise and make possible corrections to it.. Cc OGreene, Texrem, Lagosismyhome, AfonjaBoston, Walspring.
Why BYUI?
Of all the schools I applied to, ByuI combines mechatronics, robotics and thermal science as a specialization in mechanical engineering. And they is an ongoing project I checked into, Super mileage dynanometer. This projects involves us building a dynanometer that mimic the load a car experiences on a road. With this, we can map out engine performance and also help optimize vehicles to avoid break down and accidents. This is really needed in Nigeria. In addition, students in ByuI are made to live by a honor code that ensures abstinence from alcohol, academic honesty and proper dressing and grooming. This makes me feel safe attending ByuI.
What will this course do for you?
It will help with the technical skills, experience and exposure required to work in a multinational firm like chevron or shell and also help me achieve my goals of one day owning an automotive firm.
What have you been doing since graduation?
I finished highschool in June 2014, then by September 2014, I started a computer training institute, computer gardens. I did this for three months. Then by February 2015, I decided to get practical experience then I started helping out in my dad's plumbing firm. I helped in transporting and fixing pipes, plumbing machines and tools in homes and offices. That's what I have been doing till now.
Why did you apply to only schools in the Midwest?
Its just coincidence. I searched for schools that offered mechanical engineering with great domain for practical learning. Then I came up with these schools.
What is your study plan?
I will be going for my bachelors in mechanical engineering at ByuI. I will be required to take 120 credits in a duration of 48 months. I will be taking courses like parametric CAD, Science foundation, Introduction to engineering. When I graduate, I will return to Nigeria to work for a multinational firm, say shell or chevron.
How did you hear about the school?
I searched for schools that offered mechanical engineering with specialization in mechatronics, using usnews, Princeton review and google.
Guy, with these your response, trust me them go bounce you. You'll bore the VO. Try to keep them simple. It looks like you've crammed it all from a textbook. Also read up more on your intended course of study and how you will benefit from it after you're done. Then pls try to rephrase that response on Why BYUI. Also have a more concrete response for why you applied to schools only in the midwest. Your response isn't strong enough. Wish you all the best. |
