FSW 2014 applicants from Nigeria - Let's network

[Pipis Husband]

To you Lord be all the Glory and adoration forever more. He who has brought us this far will surely complete His works in all of us. Amen

We landed yesterday with KLM, stop over at Amsterdam. We had some challenges getting our plenty bags approved and avoid paying for extra luggage at MMIA, we eventually succeeded and all the rest of the journey was smooth.

At Canada, the first custom approached checked our details and directed us to the immigration section where we completed more forms, signed the COPRs and confirmed the amount of POF. No physical evidence of the POF was ever requested from all the different places we were asked, about 3 times. Even though we declared we carried cash in excess of 10,000 CAD, whatever we told them was recorded. No request for statement of account as the cash was not up to expected amount.He was very happy with FORM B4 filled even though we have no goods to follow but we submitted 4 copies and got one returned back. The waiting time was less than an hour.

I'll like to state that they don't like any meat to be brought in and this saved us a lot of stress as they just pass us on whenever we stated only garri, elubo, beans and dried fish is with us. Also, they are familiar with our food as we mentioned them.

Settling down is ongoing, appointments already booked for children school and some things will be sorted today also.

My prayer is that everyone of us will get to the promised land safely and in good health. Amen

Welcome to Canada, wishing your family the best ahead

Hello,try Ecobank if you run an account with them.But you ll apply for PTA not BTA....BTA is strictly for business transactions while PTA is personal travel allowance.Ecobank used to give 4,000 USD max. But as at when i applied,it's been reduced to 2,000USD.And u can apply for a child over 12 years too.Good luck
