Hello Guys,

Sorry about the long silence. Sad to learn about the Gofame refusal incident with AVO. I think the best option is to use an immigration Lawyer. It pretty boils down to presenting a good case for you at the moment. But your cash deposits and statements you sent without commensurate explanations (in their view) would have caused the havoc. But be positive , I have heard of reversals in some cases.

I landed in Toronto on the 20th of January 2015 and only just received my PR cards today (a day short of 8 weeks). Although that of two of my kids are still outstanding.

Take care guys...Needless to say I am yet to secure a professional job over here but I am hopeful.

Cheers

Glory to the Almighty Allah.
Used qatar airways - lagos -doha-montreal-calgary.
Qatar accommodated us at the airport hotel in doha - u need to request for hotel voucher from nigeria if staying more than 8 hrs in doha, or else u will not be given. Doha is a huge airport. immigration formalities were completed in montreal despite, it is not my final destination.
No pof was required - but u need to remember the amount of pof (in canadian dollars) u quoted on ur application form. u will write it on a form to be given to u.

Please ensure all your information tallies and u give the immigration guys in montreal (if passing thru montreal) ur passport, copr, tickets for final destination and luggage stickers given to u in naija. it saves time and ensures smooth clearance. My luggages were not checked by customs.
Thank God for safe trip..

Please how long did the flight from Doha to Montreal last?

Doha to Montreal is about 14 hours so you will do well to be prepared for it especially if you are thinking of going with kids.
Cheers.
