Good Day My Dearest Forumites.

I want to sincerely thank all those who have rejoiced with me. May God continue to give you all a reason to rejoice on this path to Canada. Also, I pray that He will place us on the path of abundant life(presently & eternally) as we gradually begin the actual relocation process.

I promised to highlight my experience with the AVO in the last couple of weeks. This is it:

*Request for initial medical exams & its execution are as stated on my timeline.

March 3rd: AVO sent a mail concerning the inadequacy of my POF (due to their non-acknowledgement of the property valuation reports included as part of POF). This mail went into my spam mail and I wasn't checking it. I usually find time to check only my in-box.

April 1st: I wrote AVO asking for the requirements to include a new dependant in my application, entirely oblivious of the unread mail.

April 3rd: AVO replied with my request & added a reminder about the March 3rd mail, which had a deadline, expiring in a few days, attached. I stood the risk of having my application withdrawn if feedback didn't reach AVO in time.

April 9th: AVO received my baby's documents & updated bank statements (of course with evidence to back the legitimate source of the funds in it)

April 24th: AVO sent my baby's medical request.

April 25th: Medicals done.

May 15th: PPR

Lessons learnt:
(1) The use of valuation report of properties is not useful in showing POF.

(2) No matter how tight your schedule is: Always check both your Inbox & spam mails.

(3) Lastly, AVO may be slow compared to other VO's but they are working!

My inquiry:

(1)Please is any one using/has used IOM Lagos/ Abuja in the purchase of flight ticket(s) in recent times?
Kindly let me in on your experience(s).

(2) Also, which is the best organization for a medic to use for document/credential evaluation


Please let's all stay focused as we proceed to make the best of this God given opportunity.

Oculo Omen tum! ! !
Hi Arese,

Congrats once again.

ABout IOM, if you know you are not in a hurry to fly(within 2 months) you can book with them, also if you know you can still withstand a little more of the waiting for "the mail" game you can go with IOM.
IOM rules are you can only book when you have you PRV's, once you apply they give you a form to fill and scan back to them, after which you will be given a time frame of two weeks to wait for them to book flights for you if possible on the date you requested. After confirmation of booking ,you pay , get your ticket and you are good to go.

My dearest forumites, it is in my state of utmost speechlessness at the awesomeness of God, that I gather myself to announce the arrival of my family's PPR earlier today.
Its been unending praise to The Most High & it shall remain so, even when we get to our destination.

I want to thank everyone in the house for the ceaseless words of encouragement.

Plz for all those still expecting updates from AVO, ensure you hang in there & keep your eyes fixed on the goal always.


Congrtas Arese, Canada awaits you and yours!

Dear Whizkid82, by God's grace your expected breakthrough will be yours in a short while. Pls continue to be patient.
I believe they will get to your file soonest.
Knowing that response to CAIPS take a while, the PPR might even arrive before your CAIPS response.
So save the little cash for the "needy days" that lie ahead.
Any change on your application status page?

I know we shall celebrate soon.
