It simply means your passport has been sent to the VAC where u submitted your application and it is ready for collection. You will be directed on what to do as soon as u get your documents. Since you stay far from Lagos, u may chill till Monday before going to VAC for your doc.
Best of luck

Can my sister that stays in lagos collect my documents for me at VAC.

Yes dear, not everyone gets the mail before they get their passport and some don't even get it until they request for it. Keep the faith alive
Pinkcandy97:
Thank you. I did that yesterday and mynpassport was dispatched yesterday too. No approval mail. Is the approval mail compulsory or it's not everyone that gets it

a letter was writing to declare exact amt provided, signed by M.D and d financial secretary.

I used a co sponsor too, but with just 1m bal

Submittd mine with 600k

But d issue now is with d main sponsor acct wch is d company, wat v said earlier shd do but oda suggestions r welcomed.

A personal acct from the pry sponsor would have been okay. 10m closing balance without co-sponsor would have even done the magic assuming it is some way more than the total funds required.

You may try to also include it in your next SOP like:

Letter and Declaration of sponsorship of X million Naira per year from my primary sponsor

Hi guys, good morning how was ur nite, am new here. Please I need your advice. I applied recently for the Canadian visa to study at conestoga college. My documents were returned after 10weeks and the visa was not granted due to these reasons ticked at the back of the letter attached to my file.
They said you have not satisfied me that you would leave Canada at the end of your stay. In reaching this decision, I considered several factors, including:
- travel history
- family ties in Canada and in country of residence
- purpose of visit
- personal assets and financial status

And I have already stated it dat I have not travel before and also I don't have family there that all my family re in Nigeria also I stated it there that my purpose is to study and about the personal and financial status I told dem am still under my parent. They said I am free to reapply if I feel I can respond to these concerns and can demonstrate that my situation meets the requirements.
Please advise me on what to do. Thanks

Okay...make I gist the house my little experience.

My journey from Lagos to Winnipeg wasn't drama - free, starting from MMA. I was really looking forward to being on the plane (it's my first time grin) and so when I reached the airport with my luggage, about to be checked in, the female immigration officer just raised one kain alarm while flipping through my passport and then staring at the visa stamp page.

'Excuse me, did you once study in London or you grew up there?' She asked curiously.

'No. I have not been to London before...at all' I replied impassively.

'This is your first time of travelling?' She inquired. I nodded along with a 'hm-hm'.

'Then how come your visa states London as place of approval? Why is it not Accra?And you're going for studies, why given multiple visa?' She furthered while showing my visa-laden passport page to her colleagues ' I have not seen this before. Please, stand aside while I call my boss and we verify this issue'.

Eh eh. I was like WTF?! Na for visa wey no be me stamp am my village witches wan get me abi?!!!! Ah, the devil is a liar. I wasn't scared though because I had all the passport request, letter of introduction etc in my bag. I quickly opened my online application to show the immigration officers but dem no wan even believe that one. Mumsy don dey pray. My father dey worried as in...asking where I got the visa again. grin

Their boss, a tall white guy came and asked me some questions. I showed him documents and even my online application. He snapped my passport bio data page. First asked the female immigration officer to go confirm if the visa is real etc. She went o for about 30 minutes. She came back and gave me the passport without saying anything.

The white Oga now said he has to send CIC a mail to get an explanation for this anomaly or else, I would have a problem when I reach Frankfurt, my next connecting flight. He sent the mail along with the visa page and my biodata page. We waited for over 40 minutes before CIC replied that due to the large volume of applications and so on especially during mid August, some passports were stamped with London stuff or so. Omo, my mind just calm down ni.

'Well, now we are informed about this latest development. We didn't know about this. And don't worry, you won't have any problems in your further flights. You can continue your checking-in', he said. My papa happy pass me sef. I just smiled 'cos I was stressed out already.

I was upgraded to Business class sha for my first flight. I am still wrapping my head round some culture shocks here in Winnipeg.

Easily got my study permit at Montreal. The officer just requested for my letter of introduction and on seeing my admission letter that it's from UofM, he seemed impressed from his comment and quickly went ahead with preparing it. My epistle ends here for now. So, for people whose visas were stamped in London not Accra, they don't have a problem.

It is well.

Do nothing. It only means that your application is currently being worked on. Since you have waited a week, you should receive a message or another update within the next 1 week.

Simply mail her and tell her about your intentions
Re: Travelling To Canada Part 9 by TheBae: 11:40am On Sep 04, 2015
I'm not sure what you want people to say. Your agent gave you a list of documents to submit, if you're not clear about it, ask your agent. "If applicable" means "if it applies to you" so simply leave out documents that do not apply to you. IMO, all she listed apply to you except post-secondary transcript and certificate if you want to leave your HND/OND out of it

First, contact IOM to ensure your medicals have been sent (it rarely happens with IOM but no one is infallible). IOM medical results are sent after 5 working days I think. In my opinion, it's CIC that's delaying, not IOM.

Also, buy more patience pills from the nearest pharmacy. At worst, you will defer your admission. It will surely end well.

Thank you so much for the Timely Response cc Sholay2011 I Think its CIC that's causing the delay but my worry is that the person we did the exam the same day already got his TRV.does this happen at times or its just a sign that I've been Delayed.and am thinking maybe I should wait till the coming week before I reach out to CIC about my application.I guess I can still resume about two weeks after resumption.

It happens very well. It is NOT a sign that you've been delayed. That's the downside of following people along in the TRV journey. If one is not careful, you start to strictly measure one's progress with yours. I had to stay away from NL when people that applied weeks after me got their TRV just to put off the pressure.

Focus on yourself, and whatever you believe in...and be optimistic.
