Good day my people,

Please is there always another ghost notification you receive few days after passing medicals or it is the same ghost notification prior to PPR? The confusing thing here is that medicals was changed to passed just like 2days ago and RPPF is yet to be paid.

AOR- May 1st

Ip 1- May 15th

PPR- May 24th
Submitted thru VSF lagos- June 1st
Application approved- June 15th
PUM-June 26th
COPR(via vsf courier partner)- June 28th
No Adrs
Visa office- Ottawa

Application details: Dont have a thing for long write-ups but i got so much from this thread; this is one of the ways i can give back . Someone might need this.

Pof - used hubby's savings and gift deed from my brother. My husband did a bulk transfer and he wrote a letter of authorization stating that it was for our immigration waka( God bless @ ethelia for responding to my question on this). We also used 25% of his pension fund. We included:
• Gift deed ( prepared by a lawyer and my bro also did an affidavit to join d matter)did not add my brother's statement of account
• Statement of account ( hubby's and mine)
• Hubby's payslip toojoin ( oversabi thing shey? My dear, anything to clear their doubt)
• Letter from stanbic ibtc showing how much he is entitled to 4 months after resignation.
In all we had a little above N10Million to show as proof of fund which was alot more than we needed for a family of 4
Work history: got a refrence letter in cic format( claimed only 2 years work experience, cos getting from my previous place of work wasn't exactly easy), hubby also got his but it wasnt in cic format so, he drafted his job description and attached it. We explained in our loe the reason why it wasnt in cic format.
I also changed my noc code post- ita and used an loe to back it up( God bless you @ newmum0615 and many others that came through for me).
Ielts: ok, so we got our ita with a crs score of 446. Along the line, hubbys ielts expired and he had to retake, that was how he had 6.5 in writing. This dropped our crs to 444. Thankfully, the draw score at the time of ita was 442. So we included an loe to state that even though our crs has dropped to 444 we are still well above the draw score.

Loes: our loes were very simple and concise. I strongly advise that you make your words few and unambiguous.

Medical and pcc:qlife and inspector moshood ( paid 9,500 for hubby n i)

Vsf submission:My brother helped with the submission, and paid for vsf courier service for it to be brought to our address.
[b]
Things to note: Hubby n I have moderate travel history
• Both of us have been refused US visa before
• Hubby has been refused Canadian visa before.
• We didnt fill schedule A form and there was no Adr for it.

That's about all. The truth is, I cant say this was what we did or did not do that made our application super fast; it was just God's favour. Ofcourse, we tidied up the application well and made sure we were honest.

I bless the day I stumbled on this thread,its been my manual on this journey. It contains all you need and more... pls for people just joining, read through and through. @ ethelia,@ newmum0615, @ luffyhaki @glitteringstar and all the amazing people on this thread- You guys are all shades of awesome( cyber full hug) thank you and thank you. God will honour you for all to see. AMEN!

Okay for those of us that are drowning in our current situations, I have small good news for you. I emailed LDN Immigration that I want to go to London to stay with my sister while I wait for my PPR but that I’m worried that they’ll send PPR mail while I’m there and I won’t be able to submit to VfS in Nigeria.

They replied that I should just let them know what my London address is when I get there and the PPR mail will tell me to submit my passport to the London office!!!

So if you have someone you can stay with and your POF is set and you’re just waiting on IRCC, this is for you.

Honestly, it's a very annoying situation. I guess the assessment officer is just being overzealous. I even submitted bank statements showing the dates of the TBILL transactions.

I got the ref letter in the required format from Stanbic today but GTB still dey do somehow.

I will go with the second option.

Thanks for your feedback.

Newmum0615:
A very annoying situation. Aren't they supposed to be more comfortable that the funds are out of your reach till after your application is approved? Since when has Tbills become a problem? With even a July and August 2018 end date sef. undecided

You may have two options. First, you may want to liquidate the Tbills and have the raw cash in your account. Not a desirable option as you will pay a steep penalty for pre-maturity liquidation. CBN does not make it easy. It's just to discourage incessant liquidation. Decide if you want to pay the price.
Secondly, the option which I would go for if I was to, is to take all the documents you are able to gather from your banks and write a nicely worded LOE explaining that the Tbills are expected to mature in about 2 months and that the processing time from when you get the nomination and when you finally get PPR till even landing is supposed to exceed August. Even a bingo is supposed to know that the Tbills will mature before that time naa. Try and work with your banks to give you something detailed that you can work with at least.
Which kain ADR is that one sef?
Let's know which one you decide and how it goes sha.

He is God alone, He is God all by himself.

Remember me, with LSRW as 8,8,8,6. I requested for EOR, I just checked my email after the Halleluyah Challenge and I saw an email from British Council. My writing has been upgraded to 7. Could you please take a few seconds out of your busy day to help me love on God! Thank you and God bless you as you do this.

I got an email about a week ago saying my EOR commenced on the 12th of June and I was sent an email with the upgrade last night. I wanted to share my testimony just to give someone hope. I remember someone saying I shouldn't bother with the EOR because it was 6 but the person whose cousin got an upgrade from 6.5 to 8 gave me hope.
Congratulations!God is forever awesome!

@codebrew85, in addition to what NewMum said , in your LOE you can even highlight the part in the Tbills certificate which says you can liquidate your investment before the maturity date, but your interest would be would be charged and explain that. Or just go with Option 1 and liquidate the Tbills.

Try to liquidate the treasury bills into real raw cash, no matter how skimpy the reference letters are, the statement of account's ground total will be sufficient.
Thanks bro. I may have to consider this option for the one that is held through GTB. Stanbic gave me the ref letter today as required by OINP stating it as instructed. As a matter of fact, that's where I hold the large chunk of my pof.

Hi Grammy,

I got a ghost update a couple of days after MEP myself. I have checked a number of times since then and there's been no change. I just decided to let it be, to avoid 'chest pain.' Lol.

All the best.

But it kinda beats me to think that they are not comfortable with the TBILLS despite submitting the TBILLS cert and bank statements showing the source and dates of transaction.
