Sending money thru Moneygram/Western union is almost as difficult as sending money to heaven now frm my personal experience in d last 3 wks. Also d greedy,long throat,hungry & poor Fund transfer officer 'egunje' increases d cost.

slimwendy85:
@ ezemistic, have u explored money gram or Western union. Get people in Nigeria to send it to you, it should be cheaper than black market.

Mille:
powermike9999 , Please sir, I have a few questions concerning travelex. I'm travelling tomorrow and I haven't even got the needed forex.

1. Is the online boarding generally accepted?

2. Is there any other requirement other than flight ticket and boarding ?

3. My flight time is 8pm. Any suggestion on when to go so as to beat the long queue?

4. Any idea if they sell euro too and at what rate?

Anyone with an answer can also please contribute.
powermike9999: 4:51pm On Sep 25, 2016

In d spirit of giving back &to say thank u to all dat answered my silly questions& bashed me. I found dis thread abt 1 month afta getn our US visa. All my peeps dat i asked abt birthn in d US were just not giving me d right info. So google directed me here. I read almost all d pages frm part 1 to dis page.

Wifey arrived Houston POE on Wednesday. 1st bought $4k @ travelex @MMIA to add to d small USD piggy bank savings we have been working on for a while. She is nt a Nairalander but i picked all i could here &gave her d training.

Below is d transcript according to her;
CBP:Hello, Welcome to America
DW:Thk u,Gud evening (Bush girl forming toosh, so na Oyinbo go 1st greet u)
He request for her port.

CBP:Y are u here
DW:Vacation &Childbirth

CBP:What was d main purpose u declared when u got d visa?
DW:Vacation.

CBP:But there is an additional purpose
DW:Yes. She explains why we could not make it to d US despite our initial plans to come.

CBP:Did u inform d embassy abt dis
DW:Yes i did.I have a copy of the email &reply i got here (hands it over to him).

CBP:Have u ed a hospital&doctor?
DW:Yes. I have d documents here. (She tries to hand it over to d guy but he replies dat she shld keep it &he continues to type into d system.

CBP:How much cash do u have on u?
DW:Over $7k. Do u want to see it.(Also adds) My husband will me in abt 2 weeks.

CBP: No.Keep ur cash safe, u dont know who is watching. Pls place ur fingers here. Who are u staying with?
DW: A friend.

CBP: U have no clear address on ur form. Can u fill a correct address as i cannot allow u in wtout 1.
DWsad Na so yawa gas o, She didnt have network on her phone to call our friend. So she ask d CBP if she can use his phone to call, He tells her dey dont allow dem bring phone to work for security reasons. He advises dat wifey asks any1 dey flew in 2geda to use dia phone to call. 2 cut d long story short, a fellow naija helpd her call our friend who now gives d correct address).

CBP: Enjoy urself, pay ur bills. Hope u have a great time here.(Stamps her in till March,2017)

On her way out, 2 other officers accost her &asks to see her port. Asks if she was sent 4 secondary inspection &she answers no. Welcome to America dey say to her again.

She picks her bags and walks out.(It all took her abt 4-6 minutes in all)

My sincere appreciation to you all. To all d aspiring visa applicants, may u experience favour. To all expectant mothers, wishn u successful deliveries,good news &good success.

I will soon share d birthing &billing testimonies to d glory of our Lord Jesus.

I apprec8 ur kind response.

tablesturn:
Good day powermike. Yes you can transfer from a 3rd party . But make sure your wife goes to the travelex office/bank 1st to notify them of the name of the 3rd party transaction expected. Better still you can transfer to her and she can make the payment herself so all documents are synchronous
powermike9999: 1:02pm On Sep 16, 2016

@hartson pls can u help with RCIC correct address. If any1 also has it u can pls drop it to help a brother in need.

Has any1 been in this situation before? Pls how did u handle it? Pls help

hartson:


I disagree with you on this bro.Reference letters can't be addressed to the above address except you want it thrown into the trash can.is it not better the complainant get the correct address of RCIC which is totally responsible for EE applications intake since the employer don't want to address it appropriately.beside reference letters are not meant to be addressed to anybody except in very difficult situation as above.

How I wish my former employer can just address it as u said but they insist on writing it to a specific address.

GrandCommander:


Is it not better to address the letter "To Whom It May Concern" instead of worrying yourself about the address to use.

@hartson thx for dis info.
So many people have brought up this topic severally in d past wt no satisfactory answer from any1. My question to u will be;
1-Do u know any1 or have u seen any1 who submitted his Pension fund before & followed this recommendation
2- Did d Canandian consular accepted it as POF. Was the person granted a visa based on this as part of his POF. Pls educate us.

If u have used ur pension fund as POF and was successful pls contribute to assist
Others with doubts or if u know any successful person pls contribute

hartson:


On the Pension Fund as POF.The person will need to back it up with statement of starting from when the was pension opened with a letter from the PFA that the money can be withdrawn at any given time I think the authorities accept that.
powermike9999: 10:11pm On Jul 20, 2016
Thanks for d info @beyunce . I will like to ask a few questions on d NBPNP event u attended;
1-Did u take any POF along for d event or did dey request for it at anytime for d EOI?
2-What point did u have to be invited.
3- Aside ur Cv did u take along any letter from ur previous &current employers showing no of hours,supervisor etc.
4-Can u help explain if u added anytin special to ur package.

beyunce:
Guys, As promised (my info session).
I must say the turn out for the information session was overwhelming.
After my 1pm session, the line for the ITA pre-assessment interview was something else. I stood for 3 hours before it got to my turn.

Thankfully I got an invitation to apply. Almost everyone with their complete documents there actually got an ITA.

Although I don't understand how the nomination will work. Because they have 425 quota for express entry and they have issued out over a 1000 ITA in Abu Dhabi and Dubai already if not 2,000.

Can't wait to get back home and send my application.
Godspeed to us all.
powermike9999: 9:20pm On Jul 08, 2016

Pls what is d pediatrician's fee like at HNW.Pls can u give a rough estimate of d pead fee & d lab bills u mentioned?

wolefola:
@ amanda0,I used dr xydas.You do not have a choice but to use the hospital's pead group whilst you and ur baby are still in the hospital,dey wnt allow external pead to come and attend to the baby whilst u are still in d hospital. The hospitals pediatrician will just walk in to attend to the baby for d number of days u are dia or at least 4 2days.You will need to choose a pead after u av been discharged 4 a follow up 4 d baby.The pku is required to be done on d baby at birth den anoda one at 2weeks wch u can choose to do at the hospital lab or somwia else,d result will be sent to the pead u choose after u av been discharged. I hope I an answered your question. Pls note that u will be charged for some lab bills but d price isnt much.
