Jeboy:
Big Congrats.

Pls what is your purpose of travel for this PPR? Family Visit, Tourist or Conference?

What is the meaning of schedule of Networth? Is it same as Asset?

Visit a friend (former colleague)

Asset - Liability = Net Worth

God be praised!

Good news to start the week:

Application Submitted - February 29th
Biometrics Completed - March 5th
port Request - August 12th

I was issued a 5 year TRV in 2019. Unfortunately, due to COVID pandemic and travel restrictions to Canada, I was unable to use the Visa in 2020 through early 2022 and it expired in May 2024.

I included the following in the application:
Cover letter, POF, Employer Letter of Introduction, Schedule of Networth, Past and Present Visa to other countries and record of past visa refusals.


Wishing everyone still expecting the very best this week.

Good morning.

Please I need clarification on how to handle a US Visa refusal AFTER (almost 2 months) submitting Canada TRV application when it was stated in the application that there was no previous visa refusal.

Since the application is not yet decided and by the time they are checking, it will show a refusal update.

Please I need your .

Final dividend for Zenith is N4.00 not N3,50. Fair enough.
What happened to GTB?

Proposed a final dividend of N3.50 per share which in addition to the N0.50 per share as interim dividend amounts to N4.00 per share

Final Dividend: N3.50k

Final Dividend: N2.70

Good evening House,

Please I am applying for TRV for my Son (6 months) as both parents have valid TRV.

1. Do I need to fill Use of a Representative Form (IMM 5476)?
2. If Yes, how do I fill the 'Declaration part' of the form where the applicant is expected to sign since my son can not sign?

Kindly guide me urgently.

God bless

Please gurus in the house, kindly confirm my analysis below:

Buying Access Bank at N10 is as good as buying the stock at N8.70 (since the stock is yet to be b=marked down for
the N1.30k Dividend declared)

Looking at Access Bank Q1, 2023 results (did better than Q1, 2022) and assuming they continue to sustain the performance throughout 2023, they are likely to declare higher dividend. However, assuming they maintain N1.50 dividend payment, then, Dividend yield at N8.70 is 17.24%

Looking further into their FY 2022 and when you compare same with that of GTBank, Zenith Bank and UBA, they made the highest Interest income and trading income due to their balance sheet (, money is made from the balance sheet)

Speaking of Balance Sheet, they have the highest Total Asset, Total Loans and Client Deposit.

I think the Bank might be a silent giant looking to discover itself and trying to shed off unnecessary weight (toxic asset) holding it down. But then, what happens in the Board room might not align with the analysis.

This is not a recommendation in anyway, I just wanted the gurus that have been of immense value on this platform to help review.

Thank you

Good morning.

Please which is better: use UPS for port submission or book an appointment at VFS for the same purpose?

I can see appointment available date for port submission for next week Tuesday (there is public holiday tomorrow and Monday).

Thank you.

I got a mail at 12 noon and I have my port Request Letter.

meljoe:
Please I’m about to pay for my ticket ? My travel insurance is from 10th April , but my ticket is leaving Lagos 9th April , hope no issues about this at the airport ?

I am in the same boat. Traveling on 9th and TI from 10th. However, my flight will take off on 9th and land on 10th. If this is the case, I think its in order.

Please i received a message asking that:

You made a payment of $100
$100 has been allocated to your application-processing fee
$85 for your biometric enrollment is outstanding.

However, I paid for Biometric Enrollment in July 2021 and Biometric Expiry date: July 2031.

I still have the receipt. Do I attach the receipt as evidence of payment or I need to make another payment and attach the new receipt.

I will appreciate your prompt response and guidance.

Please help with the following:

I have a valid 5 year UK visa. I already booked (and paid) for a ticket to London for Easter holiday. I want to do a 4-day trip to Paris from London and plan to go by Train (2 hours plus).

1. Is it sufficient to state this without evidence of flight booking or is it a must to include flight booking or training booking?

2. Do i need to include my flight ticket to London in the application?

3. I will like to use the Visa again in September. Which Visa type should I apply for that will cover the trips in April and September?

I already made hotel reservation (Paris) and I have valid Canadian Visa.

Please I need your help:

I almost finished my application on the new portal and visa payment was not successful. I re-logged in and 'Action' is showing as pending and I can not continue. Please how do I navigate and continue?
