Guys abeg is it that they aren’t attending to VVs at all? I’m not talking about Student’s spouse/kids VV applications or reapplications because they are definitely attending to those. Just read that they are shifting focus from Work permits to Study permits. Is it that they aren’t taking regular VV seriously? They don’t think we are important? After collecting application fee? Nawa o

So the people that have delays in their application were not transparent?

CanDaddy:
Been in Canada for a while and in my dealings with IRCC I think the code is just be transparent. Waiting on my wife and kids PR application to pull through so I applied for a VV for my wife n two little boys. POF was just $2kCAD which I even explained that she took it as a loan

Applied July 12th 2022
Biometrics uploaded 13th July 2022
VV approved 20th July.

That was her first visa she has zero travel history.

In my own opinion just b plain n nothing bogus

Please is can anyone who has filled an application recently for VV confirm if a family form was filled? In the past using the paper application then though there is usually a family form for siblings and addresses but can’t find it on the form I filled via IRCC portal. Please help so I don’t send incomplete application. Thanks a lot

They don't care o, they advised people to reapply to the new portal while not offering refunds for the old applications. and nothing happened. Indirectly they are saying if you dont have important thing to do( as defined by them) in Canada don’t apply. https://www.mondaq.com/canada/work-visas/1112086/ircc-requests-certain-travelers-to-submit-new-visitor-visa-applications

Congrats.
I am also a PR holder in the process of sponsoring my wife and daughter. I wish to apply for their visit visa to spend time with me during Xmas. I would like to know if you already got AOR or sponsor approval of the PR before applying their visit visa?
Thanks

Taking loan is not strange, maybe to u, una too dey fear IRCC lol. Anything is possible with IRCC it just depends on how established you are, your documents and how you package your sop. Most of these Indians they use loan as pof for studies and other purpose of visits


Taking a loan for a study purpose is totally different from taking a loan for a visitor viisa..if you do not have a strong tie to canada like a family and u stated u funding ur pleasure / holiday / relaxing/ non-esstenial visit to see niagara falll with a loan .logically it shows you not financially in good standing to make that trip and u be refuse..am a pr holder before l become a canadian citizen and l know what am saying,go and make ur resreach and you will understand all this differences in dealing with ircc .the canadian system placed so much value on family living together and that the great plus that man family got the visa as a pr holder with a pr application in process and delay most likely due to ircc backlog

I am sorry for the typo. I mean, for people that don't have family in Canada, what category of visit visa do we need? And all the necessary document do I need. Thank you @tempzi
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by iskilayodele: 8:06am On Aug 31, 2022
Just ensure you have enough money in your account , be gainfully employed then apply for tourist visa.

Good luck

Hello, please can anyone help .
I got a call from a Dhl Abuja agent that my file was returned from vfs Abuja because I didn’t pay N9410 for transmission fee .

I got no messages from vfs. On calling the same number back, another person picked up and he asked for my tracking number and he said the current update was that my package was delivered and signed for by Canada vfs .

I didn’t pay for Dhl 2- way courier. I paid for the one-way return fee and attached the receipt . I’ve tried mailing vfs, no response . Has anyone been in this situation before ?

I have contacted the nairobi office and they sent a general reply. what should I do now? should I apply a third time on new portal? would that delay the application further. Please help!

P.S : both my husband and I have active visitor visas

I applied for her on the new portal I also signed the use of representative form along with the application for the three of them. You will also need to write an authorization letter acknowledging that u gave the go-ahead for her to travel with the kids.

Hello, this happened to me. I sent my passport to Abuja on Thursday and received it today saying i need to make balance payment , as transmission fee is NGN10,400.
I dont know what to do anymore, if i should just drop off my passport at VAC Lagos. My school resumption date was extended for me to September 7th but I am also worried that I may not meet it.

Just to share some good news, Keeping a positive mind and believing in your creator remains the key. The same week I got a Canada Visa rejection was the same week I got a US Visa approval. The US consular flipped my passport page by page and counted total of 12 visa's. LMAO and he asked me to explain the purpose of my visit to each of those visa stickers. And when we got to Mexico visa... it ended up in laughter when i told him I visited temptation resort in Cancún.


chekz169:



As at 24th August…. Canada just did their best with a rejection letter.. I’m not surprise tho… Lmao! Like I submitted all I can like;
- Conference letter and recommendation letter
- 2 land documents in Nigeria
- Bank statement 10k plus euros
- Previous visa and valid visa’s (3 UK visa’s, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, Turkey, 2 Kenya, Dubai, Tanzania) I have been to over 14 countries
- 2 Old family photos
- Two Jobs contract letters (Main job and Mini job)
- 5 months pay slips
- Current residence permit
- hotel reservations
- flight reservations
- statement of purpose
- health insurance
- city registration and resident authorization
- house rent contract
(This are the docs that I could remember)

What else do they really want fam! Lol. The funny part was getting the rejection letter after the proposed conference ended 5 days go.
