No, I didn't submit any of those two and I was already partly vaccinated at the time. I used the new portal and submitted:
SOP
Itinerary i.e what I planned to do and dates
Marriage certificate
Proof of funds
Letter of invitation
Proof of ties back home
Passport bio data page
Vaccination card; I later raised a web form after I received my second dose to update my vaccination details.

Can you please send me the link to raise a web form, I am fully vaccinated but didn’t upload it when submitting the application.

Thanks

I'm curious to know why you said he should not use British Airways because I'm about to book a BA flight as it has the shortest travel time.

Kindly elaborate.
Thanks.

Efeosa5:
Hi there,

Sorry to bug u again, but I have a quick question
Is it okay to put 0 as the account balance? That my sister in canada will sponsor fully?
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by purplerain(f): 7:37pm On Nov 24, 2021
Hi All,
Hoping someone can advise. My parents sent their passports to VFS Lagos in two separate envelopes, and tracking showed both were delivered by DHL on same day, Nov 17, just 30mins apart. Now my mum's passport has been dispatched and is currently with IRCC, my dad on the other hand is yet to receive any email from VFS. We have tried contacting them, but been unsuccessful so far.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what we can do as we are worried his passport won't get to IRCC within the required 30 days

To those that got approved using the new portal, what did you use as : Proof of travel exemption that you are travelling for a non-discretionary purpose.

Monthly limit is $100, 185CAD is abt $US150 which is above the limit. Although I got a mail from GTBank stating an upward review of the limit, to a sum of 200usd but I still get transactions above 100usd declined, and I dnt knw the reason for that. Try using a barter card.
Gentlesoul3268:



Please I try to make a payment for Canada tourist visa and biometric fees online with my GTB master card but is showing declined please what that could be ? I have tried it severally

The total is $185 Canadian dollar right or I mine going to pay in US dollars rate?

Is it 185 Canadian dollar I think the fees is something around 60k plus?

How much is this 185 Canadian dollar in Nigeria money ?

What type of card can I use to make the payment? Because I'm using my GTB master card ?

Please I have a question.
Do I need to have a return ticket for visitor visa?
Can't I pay for one way trip and also book another one on my trip back?
This is because I am not sure of the specific day I will return.
I read somewhere that without a round trip ticket, one may not be allowed to fly with an airline.

Yes you won't be allowed to board....

Return ticket is highly mandatory for visitor visa

Thanks for the update.
After this what next?
Debbieeeeeee:


BIOMETRICS

Requirement for BIL

https://visa.vfsglobal.com/nga/en/can/book-an-appointment#

Go with
(1) International passport
(2) 2 photocopies of your datapage. Write your email address and mobile number at the top of both pages.
(3) Print the IRCC letter of Biometrics
(4) Print the Confirmation of biometrics appointment sent to you by vfs.
(5) Pen to fill a form.
You are good to go.

In addition to the above, Canada Biometrics submission center is upstairs when u get to VFS office.
Meet the security at the entrance who will issue a ticket to you, then u will be directed to another security guard who will issue 2 consent forms for you to fill. After filling the forms, wait till ur ticket number is called. It's at the counter u will submit all the documents you came with including the form you just filled. Ur documents will be placed in a pouch and you will be directed to where ur Biometrics will be taken.

After this, ur CIC profile will be updated same day.

Yes. Is there a specific reason for asking?

Asking because I thought for a first time traveller you can only get 6month visa max

I recently applied for a spousal visa too, although not yet approved
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by RxOtunba: 12:58am On Nov 28, 2021
Nope. I'm not evn sure Canada issues 6 months visa. They give btwn 1 year and 10yrs. Mostly determined by the expiry date of your passport.

Hello everyone. Please for those who have applied for visiting visa before September i.e. May and are still awaiting decisions on their applications- are the visiting visa applicants supposed to forfeit the money they already paid and existing application then use this new IRCC portal account to create a new visiting visa application, re-attach the initial documents they submitted and pay another fee to process a fresh application? I'm just trying to gain clarity of what is expected.

Also did you receive an e-mail from IRCC or a status message in your profile from the old application GCKey platform informing you to create a new application?

Thanks.



Please did anyone get a code on their email before they could register in the new IRCC portal
Please I need urgent response
