Can you check if security is passed? MP already confirmed eligibility passed, awaiting on security. I pray ppr drops this month, the wait is frustrating

Try this, it’s free and fast

Use this free method, it’s fast. I ordered cbsa via a paid platform since January I’m still waiting while this method was out in a month.

- Go to Google, search ATIP
- Pick the first option from the list of results
- when the page opens, click on next
- click/mark the privacy box and click continue
- on the next page, select Canada Border Services Agency from the drop-down
- from the next drop-down, select foreign national outside of Canada
- fill out your required information in the boxes below
(Use your Nigerian address and phone number pls)
- Pick yes to the question about requesting information on your behalf if so
- pick member of the public for the category that best describes you
- Pick electronic copy for how you prefer to receive your notes/records
- click continue
- on the next page, pick privacy act on the 1st drop-down
- select English in the next drop-down
- select case files for the type of records
- fill out all necessary information below(for UCI number, use the format XX-XXXX-XXXX)
- in the comment box write a short intro and your request. Eg:
Hello/Hi
My name is SURNAME, First Second. I have applied for a study permit, my UCI is soso and my application number is soso, DOB. I would like to have the notes for my file
- then click continue
- also click continue on the next page(you don't fill anything here)
- you are taken to the final page where you review or edit your info
- check the I certify box and click continue
- you should receive a confirmation email from CBSA

Thank you to everyone who has contributed in one way or the other on this group. I have a few questions/concerns.

I applied for my visitor’s visa on 4 March 2023, and did my biometrics on 14th March but my eligibility test is yet to start. I am a Nigerian studying in Sweden.

My travel plan is during summer coz of my studies, first week of June to be precise.

So here are my questions:

Will they answer at the same time they answer people that applied from Nigeria? Usually here in Sweden, decisions come in one month.

Can I email them via form after a month?

I got a message that they don't need additional documents from me. Should I be worried about that?

I'm so worried coz we booked flights already as that was a mandatory requirement for us to proceed with the application.

Thank you for your response.

Where was it mandatory to book flight ticket ?

And you cannot speed up visitor visa as a tourist it not emergency ..you just have to wait
And the curremt processing time from sweden is about 237 days stated on ircc site.but you may be luck to get a quick decision

Hello people

Submitted application : June 2022
Did biometric : June 2022
Application status currently showing submitted

I can see alot of people are facing thesame issue as me because of the long waiting time

Please is there a way I can contact them ?

Thank you
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by alexie49(m): 5:59am On Apr 07, 2023
I hope the new application won't tamper with the first one especially the same conference route again. If your agent says it is possible to apply for another conference, then the visa fee alone should be paid by you. Just saying... After all, what else?

And yes, you can track it using your UCI, APPLICATION NUMBER, NAME & D.O.B or so

If you are blessed financially, the study route would have been better and fast.

For me, I received BVL, still trying to check if there is a VISA DOCUMENT NUMBER attached or something.

Dear House, Please what is the meaning of this correspondence letter.?? I just saw this today.
I applied for a visiting visa since 2020
And it has been pending all this while.
Just today I noticed they updated the above letter after I sent an email to Canadian embassy here in the UK where I currently based informing them that I will be attending my youngest brother wedding coming up 29th of April 2023.
I requested that they should take over my application because of my current location and address. Please anyone with similar experience. I presumed they are working on it
