It depends on the type of infinix. major LTE bands in Canada are 2,4,5,7,12,13,17 and 29.
@canadahome, you need to confirm if your phone has this bands .
If it has the LTE bands, it will work just fine .

You can also check the telecoms providers available in Ontario and their specific bands .

you will need a valid visa in order to through the US. You may need to change your flight . There is usually flight from Amsterdam to Canada. You don't need a transit visa to through Schengen area.

Greetings to all.
I would like to begin the process of getting my Canadian driver's license. How do I go about processing this? I have two years of driving experience from Nigeria, and I heard I'd need to get a letter or report. Thank you. At the moment, I live in London, Ontario.

Go to the nearest drive test Center and ask for the requirements.

Dear Seniors,

Please i need your advice and guidance on how easy/fast it is to get port renewed in Canada.

I am due to start my 1 year program in September at UNB Saint John. However, my port will expire 1st week of february 2023 hence my Visa expiry date is tied to it.

I want to ask if i can start the online renewal process before I leave Nigeria so I can get an appointment once I resume or I should wait till I get there before starting the process. Also, how easily can one got to Ottawa from Saint John?

Many thanks.

Speaking of port, does anyone know what the heck is going on. I recently checked the Nigerian embassy website to check the renewal process as my port in expiring later this year. What started as an exploratory exercise quickly turned into a depressing adventure as there are people who went for biometric capture in February/March still waiting for their port and the constant retort from the embassy official that there are no booklets. It's a woeful tale of lamentations and it's scary.

Also, the ambassador promised back in February that the 10-year validity port will rolled out soon and there is no word on that yet. No surprise there knowing how Nigeria rolls.

Finally, does anyone know the stipulations about flying into Nigeria with an expired Nigerian port but with a valid Canadian one?

That port issue has been an ongoing crisis.

With respect to your question:
You can get an emergency travel document of some sort from the embassy that can allow you travel to Nigeria without a visa(the document together with Canadian port should be enough - according to Aregbesola and Abike).

See this link https://nigeriahcottawa.ca/emergency-travel-certificates/

Or you can apply for naija visa.

It has been a plain disaster at the embassy regarding ports. Having captured in March, I'm also still waiting from my port and I've heard nothing positive from the embassy. If you know that your port is expiring soon, you are better off applying for renewal right at this moment, or obtaining a new port while you are in Nigeria. Don't even bother relying on the Ottawa embassy at any point, if you don't want to be grossly disappointed.

Good day all

Is there a savings app in Canada like piggyvest ?

Would love to know about any great platforms on savings or investments

Get a visa on the Canadian port , and sort your Nogeria P out in Nigeria ..
In Swiss it's an easy ride to get but in it's war , the officials of the Nigeria Embassy act like they're still in Nigeria ..
