Really? I've gone through a number of threads by locals in British Columbia and Ontario who have lived in Vancouver, Ottawa or Toronto and rural areas. They always say that life is boring in rural areas compared to main cities, and it's harder to find doctors.

Maybe that's not the case for Quebec? It's either that or they're just trying to lure immigrants with those claims grin

You can beg them that you dont want to lose the opportunity of your study visa because it is sure for you by His grace. Ask then if you can have another course. Dont change DLI now please.

Gurus, I've got a question please.

Do I need a transit visa if my flight would layover in the US for 2hrs 55mins? I am going to Toronto, Canada with a student visa.
I booked a flight with KLM and a friend told me I would need a transit visa for US. Please, is this true?

You need a US visa to transit through USA. I don’t know about transit visa, its the usual B1/B2 visitor/tourist visa that people use and dates are not even available for interviews until 2023/2024 unless you through an agent who has access.

If you booked a refundable flight, i would advice you seek refund and rebook another airline.

Avoid USA if you don’t have a US visa
Avoid 2 stops in EU (Europe ) you would need a transit visa for this too.

Book flights that only stop in one other country.

Eg Ethiopian airline
Egypt Air
Lufthansa(Check the route some through US).


All the best.

My God, I applied for the transit visa (C1) today by filling the DS160 form. I then checked for available interview dates and it's Nov 2024 upwards smiley. Omo, I don mail their Lagos office to ask if I really need an interview, that my layover is just 2hrs...waiting for their response.

By the way, how do people go about the US transit visa? How long is the processing time? Are there really interviews and is it this complicated to get? Asking here because I couldn't find much info online and on other Nairaland threads.

What you saw online is true. You need an interview. An agent maybe able to get a close date this year but the charge over N200k to N250k plus.

Get a refund for your KLM ticket book another airline.

You cant land in USA for a minute without a US visa.
Infact, KLM wont allow you board that flight from Nigeria.

Go the KLM office and ask directly.

According to my calculations this PTA tin is almost same with buying at 800plus from bdc .
For instance , u can only get 2500$ for pta and rate now is about 430.. that means with charges n all u will spend above 1.1m to get $2500 and before u cud get pta u wud hv a return ticket . Return ticket is about 2m now , add 2m to 1.1m that’s 3.1m in total expense.

At bdc rate a $2500 times 815 is 2.037m and u don’t need a return ticket or whatsoever to buy $$ from bdc . If u spend 900k for one way ticket and add this together it’s not even up to 3m. So y worrying about pta? Unless u can have a way of getting refund for not using the return ticket
How did you got return flight for 2m, return flight is normally lower than one way ticket at all flight bookings and depends on the preferred date for departure and return

Your given exchange rate
Usd Bank =430
Black market=815

2500usd to naira bank rate =1,075,000
2500usd to naira black market= 2,037,500 naira

Example # Assuming you book ticket with Qatar Airways
One way ticket is =733,991 Naira
Return =350,000 naira
Total =1,084,9911 naira which is one way ticket and return flight

2500 usd @ bank rate =1,096,300 naira PTA
2500usd @black market rate=2,037,500 naira black market

To sum the total savings from pTA instead of black market @ 2500usd =?
Black market - Bank rate =
2,037,500-1,096,300 =962500 naira
Total savings =?
962,500 naira -350,000 naira for return flight =612500 naira....
Total savings from PTA = 612,500 naira

Quebec makes a concerted effort to keep the regions active.

There is also a doctor shortage in the regions here, but there is a doctor shortage everywhere in QC. They are trying to fill these shortages, including with immigration (of both actual doctors and students).


Thanks for the insight. I'm looking forward to visiting Quebec.

I think study permit processing in nigeria is really unfair, someone I know gain ission to university of saskatchewan for fall intake, and for study permit applied since June. Last month ircc just message her for medical request... and her course is not available for winter intake.... either she applied to another school for winter intake or she reapply to the same school which will lead to may intake

Return tickets on lufthansa,klm air are from 2m plus.One way is about 1.4m,while in some cases Qatar one way presently could be for 900k while return tickets on Qatar is over a million or more.Tickets are very expensive now.Gone are those days of 350k return ticket.

If u scroll up u wud see som1 said u shd avoid 2 layovers in Europe cos it wud require transit visa … inasmuch u will only be stopping in I don’t think u wud need transit visa den cos it’s not two layovers .
And sumtym ago ppl dat had stopover in uk or holland said there’s no need for transit visa that u won’t even step out of the airline , d plane wud only refuel and take off from there. stopover cud also be the same .. maybe u shd check on google or ask klm directly if transit visa will be needed for dat

Please I need someone with experience to advice and guide me as I try to reapply.

I applied for a study Visa and it was refused for this reasons.


I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as required by
paragraph R216(1)(b) of the IRPR (https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/sor-2002-227/
section-216.html). I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will
leave Canada, based on the following factors:
• The purpose of your visit to Canada is not consistent with a temporary stay given the
details you have provided in your application.
• Your assets and financial situation are insufficient to the stated purpose of travel for yourself (and any accompanying family member(s), if applicable).


My POF was 12 million. Can someone pls assist me through this .

Compliments family, I'm happy to this group. May God richly bless all the hard-working brains that have been working tirelessly in this group. Amen
Please I'm a civil servant and I plan to apply for fall 2023 specifically to Memorial university.(my friend and roomie from school lives at Newfoundland and asked me to apply there)

I read Bsc Business Management 2007 and a PGD in Education from NTI 2009( I doubt if I go fit get the transcript of the PGDE). Thereafter I taught in few schools before I got a government job in 2013. I plan to go for Msc Curriculum Learning and Teaching.

My job description is related to education as I handle voter education and training.

I intend getting a sponsor (my maternal uncle) as govt won't sponsor me and I won't save enough before then to meet the required POF even though I can pay my tuition.
Note: I'm married and my husband will later me after my Visa approval as I've read here.

I would not mind if any guru here can guide me through the process as application is on-going now at MUN and also our successful applicants over there, come guide your sister as I have some questions to ask since you already enjoying the reality of our own dreams �.
Once again may your labor in this platform not go unrewarded in Jesus name amen.
