Hello please help:
My valid visa will expire in 2 months time(September) same time with my passport.
I want to travel this month so l renewed my passport,
1. Hope the new passport will be stamped while the visa is on the old passport or do l need another visa?
2. I am returning in August before the visa expires, hope there won’t be problem at the Poe?
Thank you.

Hi, I had this dilemma sometime in the past and decided to find out in advance and this was what I got from the horse’s mouth
1) you don’t need a new visa
2)you’re good. The validity of your visa is the time frame you can appear at POE and request for entry. Entry can be granted, though at CBSA officers discretion, for up to six months even beyond your visa validity.

The new passport will be stamp and I don't think you will face problems at the POE

i have been following this educative thread for weeks now taking advises and praying for people whose passport and application has been on the hot sit for months or weeks now for success..now is my turn please am afraid to apply until i get a honest answer or tongue lashing from friends here,

FINANCE

PHYSICAL ASSET
i have a compound built on my name by GOD grace with tenants and another property developed by me inherited from my mother with documents to back up,

FAMILY TIES
i have 3 kids from my previous marriage between ages from 3-8yeears respectively and they live with me they are my life...i got married two months ago again to my current wife whose father and families are German/Nigerian citizens leaving in Frankfurt

now my wife uncle who is a PR medical doctor in Canada for 28 years invited us to Canada for honeymoon and vacation as am speaking now he arrive Nigeria with our invitation letter for me and my wife, he is a younger brother to my wife father who is a German citizen, my wife father usually visit Canada once every year to meet our intending host, my wife was in Germany 2012 stay a while and return to finish are education just done with her NYSC now, we have pictures taken with her uncle from Canada in my house now, he is currently in our house now to return back next week, also pictures taken with him and my wife father in Canada

I am sure you will get response from the people here.
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by JahProv1214: 4:41am On Jul 16, 2018
Mr. Sharp Shooter, apply paper route, it's faster.
Hence your wife had previous Canada visa, she can tell the VFS officer to process the application as CAN+.

Wow, splendid, Congratulations to her! This seems the quickest treated online application here lately. The online route processing time is looking staggered too.... Loads of May applications from reports here are yet being treated.

Is hers a renewal, Lagos or where, is she a senior citizen, is it CAN+ application, any US visa/travel history, which post handled her application too? What could have influenced hers being treated early in your estimation? Regards

Please house I need to confirm from those who applied online. After the biometrics is done does the application status indicates that "biometrics is taken" on their profile?

i have someone who is worried that maybe because her application status still reads "Biometrics Collection Letter" that's why the application is being delayed. She submitted June 10 and did her biometrics June 13.

So for current applicants who applied online and have done biometrics pls does your application status states biometrics taken?

To the best of my knowledge NO, it doesn't. You will only see COMPLETED in front of Biometrics (Application Step) in the CURRENT STATUS bar methinks.....
