Thank you.
it was the Nairobi address i found on this page while looking for answers and they replied me. I do not have UCI number. where do i see that please? i have read through the entire document.

i will copy the lagos office as suggested.
i have even renewed my passport. can this affect things in any way? i will equally let them know that i have a new passport too.

Ashirioluwa:


You have two options.
First option: send them an email and webform to apologize, and then wait to see if they will overturn their decision.

The IRCC office in Nairobi is in charge of temporary resident permits for Nigerian applicants; therefore, send your inquiry to them and then copy their Lagos office.

https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=Nairobi

You can as well send them email through any of these addresses:
nairobi@international.gc.ca
nrobi.consular@international.gc.ca
nrobi@international.gc.ca

https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=Lagos

Email address:
lagosimmigration@international.gc.ca
abuja@international.gc.ca

Don't forget to include your UCI number, passport number, application number, phone number, email address, and full name in your letter.

Second option: Do the first option and also submit a fresh application. In the new application, make sure you mention your previous application.

Login to your account; either you submitted your application through the GCKey account or the new portal.

Upon logging in to your account, click "check full application status", then scroll down to "application information" to view your UCI and application number.

Thank you. Going through my mail now and I realised it was around the time I put to bed. I put to bed a month after I received the 1st email and I tried accessing it. Can I add this fact to my mail with evidence? I don't want it to appear somehow but I am at this same time looking for a way to appeal to them.

MayorOfEdmonton:
In addition to what @Ashirioluwa suggested, you can also attach a screenshot of the earlier mail you sent about loosing access to your account and their response to show it wasn't total negligence on your part and hope for the best.
Recently on this group someone missed the passport submission deadline too, sent a compassionate mail and they sent a new PPR.
All the best!!

A super visa can be used for a step mother if she meets the definition of a parent for immigration purposes. According to ircc, a Parent is defined as "a person who is the natural parent or adoptive parent (legally adopted before the age of 18) of a person". Therefore, if your step mother legally adopted you before you turned 18, she can apply for a super visa as your parent. However, if she did not adopt you legally, she cannot apply for a super visa as your parent.

Hello everyone,
I’ve been following this thread as a guest, and I have some questions.
I’m applying for a vv by this month end, and I’d like to know if I can enroll in a school during the visit.
Would I need to complete a course before applying to the school?
Would I need to come back to Nigeria to get my study permit?
Is there any training program I can apply for and be certified to work in Canada as a visitor?
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Purpleivy(f): 11:20am On Oct 06, 2023
Good morning house..
My passport is with France Embassy at the moment and my Canada biometrics is 10th of October. Anyone knows how I can retrieve my passport or what to do in this situation please 🙏
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Enjoymentman: 12:06pm On Oct 06, 2023
Ok my people I got some good news 😁 it will be unfair if I don’t share because people’s good news here gave me hope too.

This is the Timeline:

I submitted my Visitor’s visa on the 7th of September 2023, I got my biometric letter for same day so I booked an appointment to go for biometric on the 15th of September, I got there and I realized that I didn’t bring my passport so I rescheduled for 26th of September and finally I successfully did my biometric which didn’t take more than 20 mins in there .

I came to this page today to see updates then I saw someone complaining about not getting their profile updated after they did their biometric one week ago, I wanted to write mine too because I never saw any update since I did mine.

I checked my mail and I saw 2 messages sitting in pretty and from other people’s testimonies here , I knew it would be biometric confirmation and passport request 😁 🕺🕺

I have a valid American visa , I only applied for this Canada visa because I heard they are issuing visitor visa anyhow and I currently have a passport expiring in 2031 so why not , from my small experience in life, nothing last forever so I tried my luck ..

I thank God sha , Canada no be easy country sha and I know some good friends there , I have lived in uk before as teenager so moving to abroad dey fear me no be small , Nigeria is not getting better anytime soon , I wish Nigeria can be better so people like me can only be visiting abroad like I have been doing for the past years

God bless you all

Yea, i also saw that. They asked "Do you hold a valid US visa?" and if you choose Yes, you are asked for the VISA number. I have submitted my application since May 31st and still waiting for feedback. It is still on background check status

Hello Chairman.

I know you mentioned getting your PPR, congrats once again.

Please did you end up sending any mail reminder before getting it and if you did, can you share sample and frequency. I also have an active B1/B2 but no response since. My biometrics was updated on 2nd August and submission was July 20th.

Thanks
