Do I need a visa to Canada?

Do i need transit visas to Canada and UK going to Barbados or one transit visa?

• I have an expired US B2 visa and a Form I-797C Notice of action. I am going to Barbados which does not require a visa for a Nigerian citizen. My flight is through London and Toronto and my destination is Barbados. Do I need a Canadian transit visa and a UK transit visa or just one? Or does having a Canadian transit visa waives the need to have a UK transit visa or having a UK transit visa waives the need to have a Canadian transit visa? How much does the Canadian transit visa cost?

• Answer:

  You will need a transit visa for Canada; it is free of charge. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/faq/visit/visit-faq02.asp .. You will also need a transit visa for the United Kingdom; the visa requirement would only be waived if you hold a valid visa for Australia, Canada, New Zealand or the USA and a flight ticket to one of these countries as destination. Like if you would have travelled from Nigeria via London to the United States on your valid B-2 visa and have a flight ticket for the U.S. as destination you would not have needed a U.K. visa for using the Airside Transit facility. http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/doineedvisa/visadatvnationals .. http://www.timaticweb.com/cgi-bin/tim_website_client.cgi?SpecData=1&VISA=&HEALTH=&page=both&NA=NG&AR=00&TR=GB&DE=BB&VT=NG&EM=NG&PASSTYPES=PASS&user=SKYWEB&subuser=SKYWEB1 ..
