TEN BEST COUNTRIES TO LIVE



No 1
Australia is the happiest place to live.
The country has retained top spot in the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development's annual Better Life Index. The OECD ranks the world's developed economies according to 11 different criteria it views as essential to a happy life.

Related: Australia hasn't suffered a recession in 24 years
Australians enjoy low pollution and high levels of personal security. They rank top in civic engagement, and above average in health, housing, social connections, and income.

The downside? Australians find it difficult to strike a balance between work and life. They work some of the longest hours in the developed world, and devote the least time to leisure and personal care, the OECD said.





 No 2
Sweden has overtaken Norway to claim second place in the ranking. The Scandinavian country ranks top for quality of the environment, and above average in work-life balance, life satisfaction, health, and education.

The OECD has been searching for the key to happiness and well-being for nearly 15 years. A lead researcher with the organization, Romina Boarini, said the Better Life Index takes account of some traditional measures -- such as income and employment -- but tries to get to the heart of what makes people happy by including other factors.

Swedes enjoy high household income and good job security. Sweden's worst indicator is personal safety. The report said 5.1% of people reported falling victim to assault over the previous 12 months, above the OECD average of 3.9%.




 No 3
Norway slipped one spot to third place compared to last year, but still ranks above average in most criteria.
It is one of the leaders in well-being, which the researchers measure by looking at the more subjective indicators, such as life satisfaction and equality.

The OECD's Boarini said these "intangible" criteria are important to people's overall happiness.






 No 4
Switzerland ranks fourth overall, and near the top for jobs, health, and life satisfaction.
It has the second highest household income in the index, after the United States.

"Money, while it cannot buy happiness, is an important means to achieving higher living standards," the report said.

The Better Life Index compares 36 countries based on 11 topics and dozens of criteria.





No 5
Denmark, fifth in the ranking, has the best record for work-life balance and happiness.
Danes are more satisfied with their lives than the OECD average, rating their general satisfaction with life at 7.5 out of 10 points, compared to the average of 6.6 points.

Related: This could be the first country to go cashless
The index also lets people assign their own weightings to the criteria, and see how that would affect the rankings.




 No 6
Canada, the sixth happiest country, is ranked above average in most criteria.










 No 7
The U.S. comes top in income and housing, ranking seventh overall.
It is, however, only average in education, environment, safety, and work-like balance.

Related: Happy to have a #newjob
Even then, Americans tend to be more satisfied with life compared to people in other OECD countries, the research showed.







 No 8
New Zealanders are the healthiest people in the developed world -- 90% of people in New Zealand said they were in good health.

Life expectancy stands at 82 years in New Zealand, two years above the OECD average.







No 9
Iceland, ranked ninth in the index, enjoys a very high employment rate, good income levels and above average job security.

Boarini said that people tend to rank education, healthcare and life satisfaction as more important measures than incomes or jobs.








No 10
Finland is the 10th happiest developed country.
Related: This electric Finnish supercar has 1,341 horsepower
It ranks top in education and skills, which are among the criteria highlighted as the most important to overall well-being by the Better Life Index.

How to Apply for US Visa in Nigeria

Visitor Visa

Overview

Generally, a citizen of a foreign country who wishes to enter the United States must first obtain a visa, either a nonimmigrant visa for temporary stay, or an immigrant visa for permanent residence. Visitor visas are nonimmigrant visas for persons who want to enter the United States temporarily for business (visa category B-1), tourism, pleasure or visiting (visa category B-2), or a combination of both purposes (B-1/B-2).
Here are some examples of activities permitted with a visitor visa:

Tourism and Visit (B-2):
Travel Purposes Not Permitted On Visitor Visas:

How to Apply

There are several steps to apply for a visa. The order of these steps and how you complete them may vary at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate where you apply. Please consult the instructions available on the U.S. Embassy or Consulate website where you will apply.

  • Photo – You will upload your photo while completing the online Form DS-160. Your photo must be in the format explained in the Photograph Requirements.
  •  

Schedule an Interview

While interviews are generally not required for applicants of certain ages outlined below, consular officers have the discretion to require an interview of any applicant, regardless of age.
If you are age: Then an interview is:
13 and younger Generally not required
14-79 Required (some exceptions for renewals)
80 and older Generally not required
You must schedule an appointment for your visa interview, generally, at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in the country where you live. You may schedule your interview at any U.S. Embassy or Consulate, but be aware that it may be difficult to qualify for a visa outside of your place of permanent residence.
Wait times for interview appointments vary by location, season, and visa category, so you should apply for your visa early. Review the interview wait time for the location where you will apply:

Appointment Wait Time

Where will you apply?

Prepare for Your Interview

  • Fees - Pay the non-refundable visa application fee, if you are required to pay it before your interview. When your visa is approved, you may also pay a visa issuance fee, if applicable to your nationality. Fee information is provided below:
Application Fee
$160
  • Review the instructions available on the website of the embassy or consulate where you will apply to learn more about fee payment.
  •  

Gather Required Documentation

Gather and prepare the following required documents before your visa interview:
  • Passport valid for travel to the United States - Your passport must be valid for at least six months beyond your period of stay in the United States, unless exempt by country-specific agreements (PDF - 57 KB). If more than one person is included in your passport, each person who needs a visa must submit a separate application.
  • Nonimmigrant Visa Application, Form DS-160 confirmation page
  • Application fee payment receipt, if you are required to pay before your interview.
  • Photo – You will upload your photo while completing the online Form DS-160. If the photo upload fails, you must bring one printed photo in the format explained in the Photograph Requirements.

Additional Documentation May Be Required

Review the instructions for how to apply for a visa on the website of the embassy or consulate where you will apply. Additional documents may be requested to establish if you are qualified. For example, additional requested documents may include evidence of:
  • The purpose of your trip;
  • Your intent to depart the United States after your trip; and/or
  • Your ability to pay all costs of the trip. 
Evidence of your employment and/or your family ties may be sufficient to show the purpose of your trip and your intent to return to your home country. If you cannot cover all the costs for your trip, you may show evidence that another person will cover some or all costs for your trip.
Note: Visa applicants must qualify on the basis of the applicant's residence and ties abroad, rather than assurances from U.S. family and friends. A letter of invitation or Affidavit of Support is not needed to apply for a nonimmigrant tourist visa. If you do choose to bring a letter of invitation or Affidavit of Support to your interview, please remember that it is not one of the factors that we use in determining whether to issue or deny a nonimmigrant tourist visa.

Attend Your Visa Interview

During your visa interview, a consular officer will determine whether you are qualified to receive a visa, and if so, which visa category is appropriate based on your purpose of travel. You will need to establish that you meet the requirements under U.S. law to receive the category of visa for which you are applying.
Ink-free, digital fingerprint scans will be taken as part of your application process. They are usually taken during your interview, but this varies based on location.
After your visa interview, your application may require further administrative processing. You will be informed by the consular officer if further processing is necessary for your application.
When the visa is approved, you may pay a visa issuance fee if applicable to your nationality, and will be informed how your passport with visa will be returned to you. Review the visa processing time, to learn how soon your passport with visa will generally be ready for pick-up or delivery by the courier.

Entering the United States

A visa allows a foreign citizen to travel to a U.S. port-of-entry (generally an airport) and request permission to enter the United States. A visa does not guarantee entry into the United States. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials at the port-of-entry have authority to permit or deny admission to the United States. If you are allowed to enter the United States, the CBP official will provide an admission stamp or a paper Form I-94, Arrival/Departure Record. Learn more about admissions and entry requirements, restrictions about bringing food, agricultural products, and other restricted/prohibited goods, and more by reviewing the CBP website.

Extending Your Stay

See Extend Your Stay on the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) website to learn about requesting to extend your stay beyond the date indicated on your admission stamp or paper Form I-94.
You must depart the United States on or before the date indicated on your admission stamp or paper Form I-94, unless your request to extend your stay is approved by USCIS.
Failure to depart the United States on time will result in you being out of status. Under U.S. law, visas of travelers who are out of status are automatically voided (Section 222(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act). If you had a multiple-entry visa and it was voided due to you being out of status, it will not be valid for future entries into the United States.
Failure to depart the United States on time may also result in you being ineligible for visas you may apply for in the future. Review Visa Denials and Ineligibilities and Waivers: Laws to learn more.

Change of Status

While in the United States, you may be able to request that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) change your nonimmigrant status to another nonimmigrant category. See Change My Nonimmigrant Status on the USCIS website to learn more.
Requesting a change of status from USCIS while you are in the United States and before your authorized stay expires does not require that you apply for a new visa. However, if you cannot remain in the United States while USCIS processes your change of status request, you must apply for a visa at a U.S. Embassy or Consulate.

Additional Information

  • Visitors are not permitted to accept employment or work in the United States.
  • We cannot guarantee that you will be issued a visa. Do not make final travel plans or buy tickets until you have a visa.
  • Unless canceled or revoked, a visa is valid until its expiration date.  Therefore, a valid U.S. visa in an expired passport is still valid.

Schengen Visa Application Requirements


When applying for a Schengen Visa in order to travel to one or more of the Schengen Zone countries there are some requirements one has to establish prior to the application. If you are planning to travel to more than one Schengen country its best if you apply in the Embassy/ Consulate of the country you will be staying at the most, regarding the residing days. Once you are issued a multiple entry visa you are able to travel to all of the Schengen Zone countries for the time permitted on the visa.
When applying for the visa you should bear in mind that you have to personally hand the required documents once you’ve made an appointment at the embassy/consulate. It is always recommendable to arrange the appointment at least 15 days prior to your departure since that is the estimated time needed for the bureaucratic process taking part in the corresponding institution.


Every Schengen country shares more or less the same requirements into issuing a visa to the needy party. However there are slim differences here and there, depending on the consulate/embassy on the required documents additional to the main identification papers and your current economic status. A unified exemplar of the requested documents with the additional information is meticulously described and listed below:
  1. The application form must be fully completed and signed in the corresponding blanks.
  2. One photo is to be attached; the photo must have a passport format, full-face capture, and a light background. The photo must be recently taken.
  3. The passport as well as all the copies of your previous visas, valid for at least 3 months prior to your departure is required. The passport must have at least two blank pages.
  4. One must have a copy of the reservation of the return ticket for the time intended to be travelling.
  5. The travel medical insurance policy is to be secured, covering any medical emergency with hospital care and travel back to ones native country due to medical motives. This health insurance policy has to cover expenses up to 30,000 euros, the sum depending on the residing days, and also it has to be valid in all Schengen countries. The health insurance policy must be purchased before picking up the visa and in your visa is refused you can cancel it!
Alert, for a minor there are a few additional documents requested by the corresponding institution stated as following:
  • The minors birth certificate
  • The application form has to be signed by both parents
  • In cases where one parent has full custody over the child, the family court order has to be attached.
  • The notarized parental authorization signed by both parents or guardians is attached if the minor is to be travelling alone.

Canada Immigration through Express Entry


Fill out your profile – Skilled immigrants (Express Entry)

As of January 1, 2015, to come to Canada as a skilled immigrant, you must use the Express Entry system. This is a process where you:

  • find out if you may be eligible, and if so,
  • create a free online Express Entry profile.

The information in your profile will be used to determine if you are eligible to immigrate to Canada. If you are, you will be placed in apool with other candidates and you will be ranked using several factors. Top candidates will be invited to apply and will then be able to apply online for permanent residence.

Note: Completing an online Express Entry profile or entering the pool does not guarantee that you will get an Invitation to Apply for permanent residence.

To help you fill out your online profile, you may want to open this page in a different browser, tab or window while you do so. You can then refer back to this information as needed to guide you through the form.

Before you start

  1. You will need to take a language test. We will use your test results to see if you are eligible to immigrate to Canada under one of the federal programs that are part of Express Entry.
  2. If you were educated outside Canada, you may need to have your educational credentials assessed against Canadian standards. 
    This is not mandatory if:
    • you got at least one year of recent work experience in Canada, or
    • your work experience is in a skilled trade (skilled manual work).
    Note: Even if you do not need to have your foreign education assessed to be eligible under Express Entry, you may want to do so in order to increase your score and chances of being invited to apply.
  3. You need to know the skill type of the job your work experience is in (as well as the job you plan to have in Canada, if they are different).You will use Canada’s job classification system (the National Occupational Classification or NOC) to find out whether your work experience is valid under one of the three federal programs.

To find your job title, code and skill type

This job code is referred to as your "NOC code" in the Express Entry profile. See Find your NOC to find the NOC information that best matches your jobs.

You will need this information again, so make sure to write it down and keep it with the other papers you need, such as your passport.

Step 1: See if you may be eligible

You can use our online tool, Come to Canada, to see if you meet the criteria to get into the Express Entry pool.  It will take you about 15 minutes.

You will need your language test results, your NOC skill type or level described above and your Education Credential Assessment (ECA).

When you get to the end, a reference number will show on the screen. Write it down. You will need it later when you go to build your profile.

Step 2: Build your online Express Entry profile 

If you get a positive result from Come to Canada, it will send you to MyCIC. If you do not already have a MyCIC account, you will need to create one. Then you will fill out an Express Entry profile to tell us about your:

  • identity
  • contact information
  • education in more detail
  • work experience in more detail
  • language
  • family who would come with you to Canada (dependants)

You will need:

  • your passport or travel document (or other national identity document, if you do not have one of these)
  • your NOC job title and code (see Before you start, above)
  • your language test results (either IELTS, CELPIP or TEF)
  • your Educational Credential Assessment result, if you have one (see Before you start, above)
  • a copy of your written job offer from an employer in Canada, if you have one
  • a copy of your provincial nomination, if you have one, and
  • your personal reference code from the Come to Canada tool, if you have one. (It looks like this: JM1234567890. We use it to bring the answers you provided in the tool into MyCIC so you do not have to answer the questions again. If you go to the profile builder directly through MyCIC, you will not have one.)

To create your Express Entry profile

  1. Follow the instructions to create a MyCIC account if you do not already have one. The system will give you a MyCIC number that you will use each time you sign in.
  2. If you have a personal reference code from the Come to Canada tool, enter it when it prompts you. If you do not have a code, go to Step 3.
  3. Enter your personal details, work experience, education, etc. (Note: You may exit the profile at any time. Your information will be saved. But, if you do not complete the Express Entry profile in 30 days, you will not be able to submit it and will have to start again.)
  4. Submit your profile online.

If you meet the Express Entry criteria, including the requirements for at least one of the three immigration programs, you will be accepted into the Express Entry pool of candidates. If you are invited to apply for permanent residence, we will tell you at that time which program to apply under.

Important: Submitting an Express Entry profile does not mean you have applied for permanent residence, or that you will be invited to. You have to be invited to apply by CIC, and will then need to give us more information in your application for permanent residence.

Register with Job Bank

To finish your Express Entry profile you must register with the Government of Canada’s Job Bank if you do not already have:

  • a valid job offer, or
  • a nomination from a province or territory.

Job Bank is an easy, online job search tool which will connect you with employers and jobs in Canada based on your skills and experience.

If you do not register with Job Bank within 30 days your Express Entry profile will expire.

If you are eligible

The Express Entry pool

If you meet the requirements, we will place you into the Express Entry pool of candidates. You will get a message in your MyCIC account to let you know.

You will be given a score using a ranking system based on factors that have been shown to help immigrants prosper in Canada. The higher your score, the more likely you are to be invited to apply for permanent residence. We plan to draw candidates from the pool regularly and invite them to apply.

If you are accepted into the Express Entry pool, you should start getting any supporting documents you may need for your application for permanent residence. You could get an Invitation to Apply at any time.

You will have a better chance of being invited to apply if you:

  • are nominated by a province or territory, or
  • have a valid job offer from an employer in Canada.

You will get extra points for these factors.

Note: you must update the information in your profile if your situation changes. For example, if:

  • there are changes to your work experience.
  • you get a different language test result,
  • you complete more education,
  • there is a change in your family, such as the birth of a child or a divorce, or
  • one of your children is no longer a dependent (including if they turn 19 during this time).

Being invited to apply

If you get an Invitation to Apply, you can apply for permanent residence. You will be invited only if you:

  • have a valid job offer,
  • have been nominated by a province or territory, or
  • are among the top ranked in the pool based on your skills and experience.

If you are invited, you will have 60 days to apply online for permanent residence.

You must submit a complete application with all supporting documents or your application will be rejected.

Once you complete your application and submit it online, we will process it quickly. We plan to process most applications in six months or less. (This period starts on the date we get a complete application and ends on the date a final decision is made on your application for permanent residence.)

You will have to include copies of all documents we ask you for, like police certificates, before we will process your application. To keep your application from being rejected, you may want to get some of these documents ready while you are in the Express Entry pool.

Contact us at Paragon Global-Tech, 19, Ibadan Road, Ijebu Ode, Ogun State for a smooth and efficient assessment and processing.
