Hello pals
It's been long I noticed approval for Spouse VV
Few months ago, this was not the case and the process via the new portal was very fast. These days, my observation has been totally different. I don't know if it's the same experience with others in the house. I speak specifically with respect to spouses applying for VV. What could be responsible please?

I heard it's backlog , indians had many backlog approvals cleared 2 weeks back , some of the backlogs were even last year applications so I believe that must have affected this side , maybe with time here will pick up with Approvals

olasubomy:


1. She can start by reaching out to professors who would be willing to supervise her. Some of them do have funding. It would be too late for FALL Intake now because summer classes are rounding up in schools. Read a lot of [b]Lekiboboe Post in CANADA STUDENT THREAD
. You will learn a lot from his post and how to approach supervisors with a COLD MAIL.

2. She would still need to apply normally for study permit. The good thing is she might not get that strict scrutiny meted out on Nigerian applications. if she has good home ties in the United States and meets the requirements, her applications might be processed very fast She can first try to get a supervisor to have some funding.

3. You can also reach out more to Canada Student Thread to ask them more questions relating to study so i dont abuse the use of this thread and limit to visit visa enquiries,

I wish you guys the best!

You have one month to submit your passport.
If you will be in America for like 2-3weeks, it's better to submit there though there will be some kind of transmission fee you will pay. It will be much more faster there.

You can submit your passport in the United States. You can choose to either sent this to Canada Visa Application Centre in New York or Los Angeles. Both locations are good but i would advise you use Los Angeles.

The below is just to give you an idea of the process if you are sending your passport in the United States for stamping.

NOTE: You still need to send CVAC an email so they can send you the specific instructions to start the process.

If you are located in the United States of America and have received the passport request letter from IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada), to send it by courier to the New York or Los Angeles CVAC (Canada Visa Application Centre), and receive it back, you will have to pay the two-way courier service with VFS Global.

This is mandatory for each passport. No other form of passport delivery and return will be accepted.

A new system has been implemented for you to obtain your two-way Courier. This will allow you to avail the labels in faster and efficient manner.
To avail the two-way courier, visit: https://www.vfsglobal.ca/PostalAppointment/Account/RegisteredLoginq=shSA0YnE4pLF9Xzwon/x/CQ1P0LBKn66dLdNUfueK+wj/xwjQV05sWPtysuvzK33qrK3eXshT1TAgsu3oVBZovxbG4hegjVxPtRK4ehNyPck+V525rUvI5fmDu7unjO/

When accessing the portal, please complete the registration and proceed selecting your preferred center to mail your application. You can choose between Los Angeles and New York CVAC.

Kindly note that all the information will be purged from the portal after 10 days, your login information included, hence, make sure you print or download your label and confirmation letter as soon as you receive it.

Once you complete the process, you will be able to print the FedEx label (addressed from you to the VAC). The label for the returning of your documents will be created locally at the CVAC.

Once you have obtained your label, prepare your package, including the following:

1. The passport request letter you received from IRCC.
2. Your contact information, including your email, phone number and return address.
3. Two copies of the TT services consent form, second page duly completed and hand signed, the link to download is: https://assets.ctfassets.net/xxg4p8gt3sg6/2LVFqatIwJhm9JEP5nqUYL/3c71a4a1468630ef0845c423a3cd41e2/ConsentForm_-TTS-English-IN-VAC-Final.pdf
4. A printed copy of the confirmation letter you received for the two-way courier purchase, which has an individually generated reference number
5. Below charges must be paid in a form of a Money Order or Cashier’s check (over 3 months validity period) in favor of “VFS Services (USA) Inc.” and fees must be in US dollars.
• Package transmission (per passport) – $22.80 USD (Only if you did not have to provide your biometrics, or if they were taken at a CVAC other than the one where the passport will be sent).
• Short Message Service (SMS) (per Applicant) – $2.50 USD (Optional).
Once your package is prepared, you may drop it off at the FedEx office of your choice. It is recommended to use a padded envelope to mail your documents and make sure it is thoroughly sealed.

N:B: The above is just to give you an idea of how their process work in the USA if you are to send your passport there. Please send an e-mail to: info.canny@vfshelpline.com. once you arrive the USA.

When I did it for my parents, the passport was returned back in less than 2 weeks. Just to give you an estimate.

Safe trip!!!
