I need landed snrs to help me with this question. I will be landing this month end with my family: my wife and 2 infants(twins). Please, advice me on all the things we should have in place b4 our journey. We are more kin about the babies. Thanks in advance
Depending on your preferred flight carrier ......you should be fine.
As much as possible ,avoid any Arabian carriers because of your babies.
Get some form of temporary jackets for them......even though the tolerance level is low but it's good to have for their temporary use on arrival before you get suitable ones for them.
Make sure you have shoes for them that will temporarily shield the winter at the airport for them too before you get winter shoes for them after arrival.
Medications .....medications ......have them handy even if you have to look like a chemist/pharmacist ;D.This is necessary before you get your health cards depending on which province you land.....it will be mostly needed in provinces where it takes 3 months from registration date to get your health cards.
Even if you're going to provinces where the health card will be available for you immediately (i.e Alberta ),you still need drugs for immediate attention to your babies for cold,cough and catarrh .
Just like you said,you and spouse can endure but be careful not to expose them unnecessarily because their immune system to cold,catarrh and cough may still be low.
I think you should go with handy food for your kids too especially through out the duration of the flight........prepare well for this stuffs if you're taken any Arabian carrier because of their long flight periods.
For EUROPEAN carriers ,the cumulative flight period is around 16hrs and should be fine for you guys to deal with as opposed to average of about 30 cumulative flight time for Arabian carriers ;D
Cheers.

There are quite a lot of information there on what and what not to take

Most likely,transit visa may be needed even if its just one minute stay in the US.
If you check British Airways,not sure their gateway into Canada is through US...rather,they mostly enter Canada via Heathrow airport which you do not need transit VISA.
Cheers.

For the Canadian passport, please click the link below to download forms and read the application instructions ...

For the Nigerian passport, read some of the links below to get familiar with the application process and fees ...

There is no age restriction in applying for a Passport (a challenge in taking a baby's picture at the passport offices may arise anyway), but I do know some airlines have restrictions on the age of babies flying in their airplanes. I hope this helps. Cheers!

hello forumites,
I notice a little change on my ecas this weekend. I noticed that my home address has been added to my mailing address. now it's two sets of address on display. but my home address is the same with mailing, so why the need to "multiply" it?
