Thank you very much for the detailed response. They did their biometric in 2018 in Abuja, are we expected to pay transmission fee since we are submitting to Abuja, or what other fees apply to their situation?
They won’t need to pay since it’s Abuja they had der biometrics. If they’re picking up no extra charges, if they want home delivery Dey will pay 30k+ to vfs courier.

Pls anyone successfully reach Canada VFS via phone. Cos their number is literally impossible to reach. Or how can one successfully reach them?

Do you know if they issue refunds? I paid 30k plus for 1-way courier however their site now says it's back to the 18k. Anyone in these same shoes as me?

Will appreciate a response. Thank you all once again.

When did you pay? Their site says effective July 10th, it's back to 18,710 or so

hi, I hope this find u well, and congratulations on ur visa, pls, I would be applying for a conference with my colleagues at office, I work with federal government parastata, which docs did u submitted, did u attach bank statement and properties docs/employment docs cos I have read some of the requirements here for tourist, don't know if it's same for government sponsored conference too, would be glad to read from you soon, thanks.

I submitted my Payslip as additional document. I submitted a letter from my organisation stating they will pay for the entire trip. I also submitted a letter of invitation sent by the organisation in Canada. Also submitted soft copy of my NIN. That's all I submitted. I did not attach my bank statement. I did not attach any property documents.

However the copy of the letter of invitation I submitted was sent to the Canadian high commission in Nigeria by the organisation in canada before I made the application. All the best.

Have you received your ppr? And has your passport been stamped? If yes that is it!

It means that a decision has been made on your application.

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by meljoe: 8:14pm On Jul 12, 2023
Okay thank you so much. Do I upload all the documents for each person or select it ?

Newbiein2016:
Could you add latest transcripts as well if available as the goal is to point out that these kids have to return to complete school.

Anything that can prove your ties needs to be added e.g. I recall a friend who was the chair of their 'ajo' meeting of 35 persons included a signed statement regarding their end of year party to drive home her own ties. She also had the church send a stamped letter as part of some festive events she was leading (and as a bona-fide and active church member). I thought it was funny but after thinking it through, it made sense.

Point being, Canada is quite finicky with tourist visas and they'll always err on the side of caution if they have any concern, whatever you think will help, include it.

Re: flight and hotel, I always include those in visa applications as I don’t see anything wrong here. I go for book on hold and/or options with free cancellation. Never pay for any of these without a confirmed visa.


Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by GodsOwn2004(m): 8:17pm On Jul 12, 2023
Congratulations@Emmafe.

I'm interested in getting first hand info regarding this.

Is it advisable to do 'upfront medical'?

Thank you.

Hi guys,

Here us my visa story , applied on the 16th of March 2023 from UK and got PPR mail on the 27th of June and got my passport back on the 10th of July. It was a 2 years visa as my biometric is meant to expire by 2025. I was refused student visa 7 years ago and US refused my visa application last month also for reason best known to them. I intend to apply for my wife and I would like to add my visa page to it, she has not been to any country before aside from UK however I have 3 siblings in Canada and they are all PR holders. Kindly advice on any additional document you think might help.

NB: I did not even submit any payslip nor house contract o.
