@Firstlady,

I have found great deals on flights in the past using www.kayak.com. A quick search I just did from Lagos to Toronto shows around $1000 CAD, depending on how soon the flight will be. Best of luck, and congratulations once again.

-Nicole
Thanks so much Nico. Plz could u share the website? My is from lagos to saskatchwan

If by now you have not received SA or any other info, something must be holding your file at CPC-Miss. Does you sponsor have any adverse history that you know of? Have you considered ordering GCMS notes? http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/requests-atip.asp
Rule of the thumb is to prepare the application very well and allay any fear/concern CIC might have about a particular adverse situation. Not much could be said about your situation if you don't give further info about your circumstances.

The search is through the website www.kayak.com. Looks like flights to SK are higher than somewhere in ON like Toronto. Saw some suggestions on here for Ethiopian Airlines. I have also flown with them to GH in the past, with very reasonable prices.

Wish you the best!

Hi Samola10,

Good morning,
@Ghanaboy, Dele, Mandie,
Happy easter to you all and hope you enjoy the celebration and holiday.....?

Straight to the issue at hand, yes I had contacted the MP and I feel they too are working on it.
About calling CIC yes they do answer the calls at some point and also they agreed it has gone past the time limit for the sponsor assessment and made many notes and also said its little they can do from call center, and that they are waiting completion of background check .

Well about the whole story, I am the applicant, I and my spouse are divorcees and we have know for 10 years now though got married in 2014 in Nigeria .

It took us this long bcos we are contemplating settling in uk before agreed Canada , she is a British Canadian . So I was just surprised at the turn of event now about this long delay and wait, right now am kind of frustrated bcos CIC call center say they don't see any problem, they not ask questions or request extra documents yet and I requested my GCMS note still lot of hidden information, then what's the problem.

That's how it goes my people.
Thank you.

Hi Samola10 I do understand your frustration ...Just hang in there I do believe things would sort itself out. One quick question about your relationship do you have documentary evidence for the last 10 years of knowing your spouse? Also, was your spouse marriage in the UK or Canada ? I'm assuming both of you have done all the paper work with respect to your divorce prior to your PR application without any red flags .

@ Dele,
Yes all paper work about divorce well documented.
My spouse did married in Canada before and all evidence of our relationship since last ten years submitted.
Everything was in order that's why it took about 7-8 years to perfect all paper work

Thus is really giving me a lot of headache as the xchange at open market is crazy.
