Hello Guys , I applied for visit visa December 2021 and i am now in the Netherlands for study . I want to know if there is a way i can update my status by uploading my visa and study permit . Also, my eligibility started last week.

ChiKen2027:
I applied through the privacy act route on the 7th of February 2023 and got my GCMS note on March 11, 2023. I can't make any sense of what is there though. I applied on June 30, 2022.

It shows your application is still under active review. FCC means the five country conferences. Simply put, the Canadian authorities are asking information about you from the USA. The reason you see" Ready to be Assessed" USA.

But nothing to be worried about if your travel history is without issues.

It will end in praise!

Sorry, what about the words Complete- Not Review for info sharing Biometric- FCC .Can you explain better.

info sharing - In Progress - These implies the 5 partner countries ( Canada, UK, Australia, Netherlands &United States) are exchanging information about you. This is a normal security routine check done on prospective immigrants coming into their country either temporarily or permanently. They make use of biometrics details ( which has data of the applicant) and share these with their partners. This is the stage where they detect an applicant that has violated any law, committed a crime, overstayed, denied or given a ban etc.

FCC comprises the above mentioned countries. But, I cant see any issue on your GCMS notes, it is just their normal internal security reviews.

Which means they have started my security screening or review?

Yes, they have started your security screening. You just need to be patient till your application is finalized.

I would say the main hurdle for most applicants is eligibility. Once they start your eligibility and all is ok, you should have your PPR.

Just stay positive.

I honestly don't know cos I wasn't looking out for that, I feel like it has been like that since 2021 ish.....I have sent some mails and updated my expired docs via Web form...I give them until month end, then I will reapply.
Luckily I'm in the UK and I see the average application time is 30days here.

Canada visa application it online filling.method so .which form you want download??

Hello guys, I need help. We got a message from vfs that the passport is ready for pickup at their lagos office.
I initially paid for a one way courier for drop off. Can I go to DHL and pay for pick up? The reason I asking is because vfs said that to use their in-house courier services, we have to pay for each passport. We applied for family visa and paying for each passport will be expensive. Also, the DHL services is way cheaper than vfs in-house courier.
Also does anyone know if vfs refunds for in house courier services that was not used?

Hello Rebless,

I think I understand what you might be facing. You either need to use chrome or have the latest Adobe Acrobat installed on your system to view the content of the IRCC form.

When I applied, I downloaded so many times facing the same issue. The way I resolved it then was to use chrome. However, you need to go to privacy, security, and site settings.

Click site settings, you will see PDF documents under Additional content settings, click it and set it to "download PDFs" instead of "Open PDFs in chrome".

Once this is done, the forms will be downloaded into your system and you will be able to fill it on the system accordingly.

Hello,

You can not use your own DHL pickup services to pick up the passports. That is the annoying trend currently with VFS Lagos. You will either have to use theirs which is like 18k plus per passport or go there between 8:30 and 10:00 am to pick it up yourself.

Congratulations.

I applied on June 30, 2022, As I did not receive any mail from IRCC, I will never be sure of the exact date the status of eligibility changed. But I requested for my GCMS notes on February 6. 2023 and received a response on March 11, 2023. I guess the update came thereafter.

Hello everyone, filled my Mum’s visit visa application around November but it’s showing another persons details , tried filling another application using another email but it’s showing the same person details. It’s showing the person biometrics details and name, bear in mind my mum has never applied for Canada visa yet it’s showing biometrics details. What can I do to rectify this

Hope you have cancelled this one that you submitted today before IRCC starts processing it. Maybe you are not doing something correctly.

Regarding the one you submitted in November, when you did notice that it was showing another person details after submission?

Send IRCC a webform with detailed explanation of the issue and you can also call IRCC agent to explain the issue just in case they can rectify any anomaly before a decision is taken on the file. But, first be sure you are not the one making any mistake.

I noticed the anomaly some minutes after submission. I sent webform explaining the situation around January and I’m yet to get a response to that effect. I’ll call the customer service today

Good! I assume you are in Canada. Try reach out to the customer care line. I think they work with mountain time zone. The issue is strange but lets see when you call them.
