I don't think anyone can guess how much your car insurance will cost. This is because there are just too many variables they consider in calculating your . Location, type/age of car, driver's licence level, driver's age/gender/marital status etc.

Thank you. Really helpful

new drivers in GTA are getting quotes of 500- 700 cad a month. Its on reddit

Wow! Thats like 6k cad annually.

NuCypher:

I don't know much about this. But I think the 2-year rule is generally valid. The only province I'm aware of which doesn't specifically mention this 2-year thing is Quebec. But I won't be surprised if they also require 2 years. You can generally get some points for your UK and Nigerian licences (years of driving experience) though, and that may allow you take the G road test immediately. See this link


You can start these kinds of jobs immediately once you can legally drive on Canadian roads. It's that simple.


The rule of thumb: the more money you can bring to Canada, the better. You can never have enough, because the bills pile up pretty quickly, and having enough will always give you flexible room.
Your plan to start this ride-sharing thing should not stop you from continually applying for jobs in your desired field. While it may appear like there are no jobs in Canada, people are still getting jobs daily. There is no reason you can't be one of them. But it's actually is a very good thing that you are planning ahead this early. That's commendable.

Wow! Very detailed explanation. Nairalanders are simply the best

Please for a new PR holder with a Nigerian Driving License with about three years driving experience , do you have a clue or estimate of the car insurance to be paid?. Please what factors determine the amount payable?.

Thank you very much

kumbhuru:

Lmao, imagine. This is actually sad that you aren't all being helpful, I need to get a Ghanaian forum, as they're more reliable and helpful. Mind you, Anything below Band 5 doesn't qualify for sponsorship jokes on you. I'm a specialist nurse coming in to NHS with a band you won't be able to get in 5 years.

🤦‍♂️. What a child

NezzyMike:




So who got to know she was sleeping on duty? She should've waited to sort out the issue before getting another job. Why doesn't she know if there's a CCTV there or not? It might be that there's someone that has been monitoring her but she wasn't aware.
Let her keep praying, if her professional body has been written to, they would've let her know by now. If there's an evidence, someone suggested what to say during the disciplinary meeting.
Let her previous job not be aware of her new post ooo, if not na straight to professional body which might restrict her practice.

Brooo take time to read the initial question na.

11elleo:
yes your spouse should be living with you in canada. You should try to apply for visit visa since it is easier now for spouses in the process of spousal sponsorship. then when your spouse arrives then you can apply for the work permit

Please can the spouse leave Canada for a month pending the open work permit or will that affect the application ?

Makibarbie:
I wont advice you to leave coz the requirements is that you need to be in Canada, except it’s a quick trip you intend to make before returning to canada.

Ok thank you very much. Can a month away be considered a quick trip. Also any idea how long the open work takes ?

Thank you very much

Makibarbie:
Yes i did but still no update on it.
I haven’t seen anyone with an update as well. Just hoping this SS comes out soonest coz 6months is almost here.

Hi
I know it’s been a while you sent this but I’d like to know if one can leave Canada after applying for the work permit and re enter once it has been approved since the TRV is still valid.

Hwy9:
Please, has anyone tried booking flights via bookingdotcom? What was your experience like?

Please let me know, make I no go throwaway money!

No issues at all. Na confirm site

Jeff0983:


Honestly marriage certificate should be okay but seems UK wants to recolonize us again, even after marriage certificate, pictures (101 pictures), WhatsApp chats and some invoice with bank statements my agent is asking for tenancy agreement on both of our names before he can apply.

Just your marriage cert and pics is enough. Don’t overload your application na

forkinsonlolo:
good day house,i am rounding up at the end of this month. I will complete my module which is a life project by the end of this month. Please when is the best time to apply for post-study ? as my VISA expires January 2024. Thanks in anticipation

You can only apply when your uni sends a mail informing you that they have notified the home office of your course completion

gergemam:

Okay bro. I have sent a pm to you

gergemam:


How urgent do you need this

Good morning boss. Quite Urgent but I can still wait till September.

Are you coming anytime soon please ?

Samopex05:


Worked like magic. Thanks

Anytime bro

Samopex05:


Thanks Mate.

I will try this method again tonight as it keeps locking me out for 24hrs.

Did you use an Android or iPhone when you did yours?

iPhone. It should work with that method

I was locked three times before I tried it.

Samopex05:
Please for those that updated their visas recently, did you do the biometrics via the Immigration ID Check App.

That App has been driving me crazy for the past 3 days now.

I haven’t been able to scan the chip on my current BRP, it keeps bringing out the error code.

Don’t scan using the portrait mode. Turn your phone as in Landscape then try again. Should work. Stressed me for days

Hi my people,

Hey people, if anyone is interested in getting some items from Nigeria delivered in 2 weeks time, feel free to let me know. My friend is coming and has two 23kg free luggage boxes (not bringing much because she wants to do bulk shopping). If you need anything (must be bought by her in supermarket, stores etc.. , she will not be accepting pre-packed items from your family or friends) just send the list and you will only need to make payment when your goods are delivered to you in UK ( serious and genuine people only should reply, no time wasters or fraud thanks).

I have just sent a pm to you

mizGene:

Sponsorship is priority. However, I would balk at committing to a company for 5 years because I believe there will be better opportunities and also considering the financial visa app implications.

I would ask comp A to reduce COS to 2 years and give financial burden as reason, I think any reasonable employer should allow this. That way you get on the ILR journey asap without having to spend so much, and you can move companies later without feeling like you have wasted funds.

The best way to go although I will suggest three years. You only have to pay the extra IHS for one year. The visa fee is same
It gives you an extra one year to plan well and just two years before you are eligible for ILR.

800x12= 9,600

Earning like 900-1k monthly will give you about 12k?

You forget students can work full during vacation which is usually about 6 weeks(April, August and Dec.). No way they won't earn close or more than the 12,500 threshold.

Dara2Dami:
Please my people I need help, just started work and will only be paid next week. I am cashless for work tomorrow. Can any loan 20 pounds please? Promise to pay on Friday once I am paid. Thank you so much. Happy Easter

Kindly Send a pm if you haven't gotten any help

I can't seem to use this with my Hisense Smart TV because it's not an Android TV

You may need to buy a firestick I think

CheesyTee:
Please which country is the "easiest" in of applying for schengen visa?

Italy is easy

Akhat:
Please I just got to UK recently as a student. I still trying to get a part time job. It's not been easy. Now, my phone has been showing "no service" on both sim cards since yesterday. Potential employers might not be able to reach me, because some took my number and promised to call back after, and the ones that have told me to be on standby for shifts. Please, if anyone that can assist me with a small phone to receive calls as I can't afford to buy a phone for now. I already exhausted the cash I came with on transport for job hunt and dbs.
I live in Liverpool. Please I really need this please.

Send a pm to me bro or drop your email address lets connect.

Thank you so much.. please is it compulsory that i submit the documents with the flight tickets? Because I’m doing for me and my family and we don’t have a particular date in mind for the trip

I think so. I submitted my flight ticket and hotel reservations(you can book on bookings.com without paying till you get to the property)
