letter of invitation does not really count to these visa officers. It doesn't show you ties back home or show you will return home after visiting .

I have a similar case but I have a wife and sister there. My wife wants me to apply for a visitor Visa asp because of a medical stuff we have to do. She is sponsoring everything but I dont have a good job and I don't have a good account statement. Please guru's in the house help me with ideals on how to go about it. Thanks

It's happened to me too, what you will do is filling all the years occupy from since you started your education till date .

For example: 2001 to 2005 University

2006 to 2007 unemploy

2008 to 2021 working in so so

Make sure you occupy all the years without lapses

Best of luck

Hello,

I applied since nov 26th 2021, till now application is still in process.

My question based on your US visa , did you send bank statement or proof of fund ? As when I applied via the new portal , it didn’t ask my for any bank statement


Faithyyyyy:
Hi guys.

Just to share my timeline

Application Submitted Via new Portal

TRV Application Submitted : Jan 27th

PPR and Approval message February 23rd

No Eligibility review was done


Only saw Eligibility and Background check completed on the day visa was stamped .

Sent via DHL to VFS Abuja (takes 3-4 days max)

I had valid USA visa and also my trv just expired in January, have an application for post graduate work permit in progress too. Application was to renew TRV to return to Canada with my kids who are Canadian passport holders.

Based on the questions whilst filling the form, I qualified for the CAN+ I believe.

It does! Praise be to God.

So I have been going through people's inputs and realised that it has been mostly tough for some. I think apart from having family members there, other things that help are:

1. I work two jobs and earn quite well there. I added my employment letters that were really clear and my earnings were well outlined in my account statements
2. My proof of fund are in my name. One acc had a lot of movements while the other didnt. I explained why.
3. I had leave approval letter and demonstrated that I would even still keep in touch with work while away.
4. I had just renewed rent and showed that in my statement.
5. I have investments here and a finance. I demonstrated that too.
6. My LinkedIn profile corroborated my claims.
7. God was with me.

Good day everyone.
Please i have a question. I heard that Canada will not give you a visa beyond the expiry of your passport, so what happens if i made an application and the request to send passport is made a few months to expiry of passport? I made an application since last year and still waiting for a response.

Hello house

My fiancé is a Canadian citizen and we are getting married in few weeks. The plan is to start processing my relocation immediately after the wedding. Spousal sponsorship for PR takes 12 months minimum, so we want to try the temporary visa route. I have the following questions

1. How soon after the wedding is it okay to apply for a visitors visa? And can we apply for both spousal sponsorship and temporary visa at the same time?
2. What documents do I need to put together to ensure a successful temporary visa application?

Please help. Thank you

Thanks very much for your swift response. In my case I operate a small business on my own, and my account do not hold much money but my wife said I should not border about it she will state that she is the one sponsoring. Also the house I leave belongs to my dad. I only have a piece of land which I don't have c/o for. These are the 3 things missing in your list now. What should be my next move now bro. Thanks

Is your fiancee white? How did you come across your fiancee? For how long have you been dating? Has she visited you before?
Spousal sponsorship by a Canadian citizen is not that simple as you think. The above questions may come up during your eligibility review. With the training manual I saw for the Visa Officers processing sponsoring applications, a lot of issues need to be cleared to ascertain the genuiness of your relationship. They just want to prevent a marriage fraud to get papers

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Beverlyhills: 12:24pm On Mar 11, 2022
You can apply for a TRV whilst you wait for the Spousal sponsorship.

Please lets always not be in a hurry to put in an application.

After the wedding, atleast let some time go by before you start with the application ... start with the Spousal sponsorship then TRV ...

To clarify, he’s a Nigerian, and we’ve been dating for 3 years. Yes he has been in Nigeria a couple of times since he relocated

Is there a timeframe that is best for the waiting period before starting the applications?

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Dewaaar: 3:05pm On Mar 11, 2022
Yesterday i saw a post that said airlines in Nigeria were going to stop operations soon if the fuel problem persists.
Some days ago it was the case of a train stopping half way to the destination and leaving passengers stranded.
I’m sure if I search hard enough I’ll find more stories. My point is that Nigeria can happen to you anytime and you go just weak because I can’t possibly imagine what I’d do if I was left stranded on a train because of fuel.
This is the best time to find a way to japa. If you have plans to move to Canada, this post is specifically for you.
This detailed step by step guide on moving to Canada was curated by someone who was living in Nigeria like you and I but now comfortably resides in Canada.
He has been helping make the move with this system “no hassle naija to Canada japa system” (this info is verifiable on google)
If you want to get this guide, just send me a message and I can get you hooked up!
Goodluck and see you on the other side.

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Nibray: 7:11pm On Mar 11, 2022
I will advise you not to be in a hurry. Try to gather adequate information before you even start, take several pictures together when your spouse arrives Nigeria before your wedding, after and of course on your wedding day, anywhere you visit, take pictures that covers the number of people present on your wedding day, prepare your text messages, WhatsApp messages and call logs from the day you met to present time among others. the day you met, how you met matters a lot. If you are on social medial like facebook, make sure you display your wedding pictures. All aforementioned are needed for your PR application. You can start processing your PR immediately after your wedding and submit when your spouse returns back to Canada. Give the application some time, once you pass eligibility and you discover a slow movement then you apply for TRV at this stage it might be very hard to deny you a TRV
