Canada is just crazy this period, a lot of factors coming in between. While they give us their timeline

People already over there can still wet our eyes, this place is dry

Things just got a little or a lot more complicated! Seems Christmas plans all gone down the drain sad

I knew the travel ban will hit Nigeria as soon as I saw the news of two Nigerians having the new Variant

So sad.

You mean 30 Days (From November 1st) or you mean 30 Working Days.

Which of them.

I was about to upload documents when my friend showed me this bad news.
Does that mean we cannot apply for a visitor visa for now?

You can still apply.

You just cannot come now.
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by RxOtunba: 4:37am On Dec 01, 2021
You are right....I remember I once saw a 3 months visa or 6 months, can't remember
maziude:


They do actually.

Visa validity is on a case by case basis. I have even seen 3 months.

Just when I submitted I saw that they have banned Nigeria . For us that applied as tourist what is our faith . This is just sad
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Ashirioluwa: 8:07am On Dec 01, 2021
Those who have applied for visitors visa please how do you upload your documents?

For instance my wife Passport, visas and immigration stamps are about 20MB but the system only allows 2Mb to be uploaded to Passport and Travel documents upload section.

Please how do you guys handle this?
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by sam4774: 8:57am On Dec 01, 2021

Passport/travel document is the only document name showing under my Supporting Documents Upload.

Please where will I include or upload proof of fund and other documents like hotel accommodation and other documents?

The way the portal is programmed if you been you Canada in the last 10 years or have a valid us visa , I guess you will not need to upload proof of fund.

For me I was not ask to upload proof of fund .

Hence I did not .

That is the reason. If you’ve been there in the past 5 years or earlier the requirement of proof of financials will not be there but you can combine and upload in others if you still feel like showing proof

Considering they claim they start processing after Biometric is submitted which was October 25th

30 working days falls on December 6th, that is next week Monday.

They should do normal and maintain their 30 working days o.
