1st applied for SP in May, passed medicals in August but denied in Sept.
Due to reason for travel and finance. Worked on that and applied again Oct. 21st, Nov 23 passed medicals (same medical as before though)
Its been a week after that time and no further response. Is this likely a bad omen? Pls advise.

You need to pass eligibility review. Doing an upfront medicals doesn't guarantee visa approval

It has been deleted. If you send a PM, I would be able to send it to you.

Someone sent it to me. Thank you.

It might just be Lagos visa office. The other person submitted to Abuja

Kimkalash:
They themselves gave us 30 days to submit. It's been 27 days and not even a hint of passport processing. People with whom we submitted have already paid for passport return. Why are they shoving our passports away when they themselves asked for it? Why squash our plans Why are they so bent on frustrating us? They re so so so trying our patience. Are they the only immigration agency in this world? These people keep spewing their unprofessionalism with their erratic operations and stupid random treatment of applications. Total nonsense!!!

That was fast o, we have the same timeline but I have only gotten 1 mail from them.
I'm hopeful..

4th email just this morning. Submitted previous friday via dhl to Abuja, it arrived there last week Monday so today makes it a week since I submitted. I paid for 2 way courier with DHL; with recent trends, does it mean I will still have to pay for VFS's courier service?

I said it earlier that it seems some of those that submitted passports to Lagos VFS (received by the legendary Mr Festus) between November 3-5th had delayed processing. I submitted my daughter’s passport on November 4 (received on 5th) and didn’t get a tracking ID until November 17th (20201117.....) and that was after repeated calls and mails.

Last notification I got was on November 20 that passport was in transit to Abuja IRCC (sounded strange at the time; since I sent to Lagos VFS).

No new update. Another strange thing is that the tracking ID still brings a “No Records Found” message when tracked online. When I complained last Friday, the CS guy said it’s Under processing at IRCC.

Patience is really a virtue o

Kimkalash:
Submitted since 3rd o. No fourth email. These people are fuckers!

The Abuja offices of VFS and IRCC seem to be saner. We can't say the same of the Lagos office. This was why I advised people to use the Abuja office. My advice still stands for anyone who gets their PPR. An extra amount for package transmission shouldn't be an issue if you want quick results. For those still waiting on the Lagos IRCC office to stamp their passports, my advice is that you should mail the High Commissioner directly or raise a webform to their central office (at Ottawa).

To answer your question, Eilenora, I don't think you'll pay again for return courier but kindly confirm from them. Their rules seem to be changing every minute these days.

Good morning everyone, please who else has experienced what I'm experiencing RN.

Since my passport was received by Me Festus last week I am yet to receive a tracking ID or acknowledgement.


What could be the reason or what can I do

We have the same timeline. I was in your shoes last week but I sent them a mail last week friday in the morning, stating my name and requesting for my tracking ID. It was after that they replied me in the afternoon with my tracking ID with that same date. So I guess you should send them a mail.

I hope it's what I'm thinking, haven't been able to access my online account....

February 14, Paper applicant!

Obanidavid, I'm using your timeline to measure mine. Have you received your passport yet? If so, when?

Hello Rebecca, I hope to get it back today. I was told it would be picked by the courier service at the close of work on Friday.

I am in Saskatoon.

Nyenyenwq:
Good evening all, please is there anyone here going to University of Saskatchewan for Winter 2021 term or who is already in Saskatoon? Please indicate

Dear Family

Please can someone assist me with my query.

I am a British born citizen and permanently reside in the UK, I will be getting married in January 2021 to my fiance who lives in Nigeria (he was born in Nigeria).

Our intentions are to apply for PR and move to Canada permanently. I have family that live there also.

My main concern or worry is the fact that we live in two different countries which will be apparent on application and wouldn't want this to hinder the outcome, just incase the marriage is considered to be sham?

Is there anything I should do differently or mention in the application?

Please advise, many thanks.

I am experiencing the same issue. I have written them severally to at least send me tracking no. I submitted on 4th Nov yet no email from them till now. I have my LOI and counterfoil. Its just appalling

You can mention how you met your husband, how you both maintained your long distance relationship (maybe you both spent holidays together) with proof, which may include travel documents, screenshot of WhatsApp chats, pictures.
Marriage certificate
Wedding pictures with other members of the family.

No you don't have to. I just got mine since October 30, received November 2

You just got your passport?

Wahala for Canada and patience. So you haven't even gotten back your passport yet despite paying on Monday last week? This is very serious. I don't even know what to say because I plan to travel this week. Let me start mailing them every morning and evening. I can't wait that long.

Please do let us know when you receive it and then you can confirm when it was actually sent. I doubt if it was picked up on Friday. Afterall, they said that mails are picked up only on Mondays and Wednesdays.

jdoe28015:
Hey. Apart from the automated email, did you get any other email after you sent consent form for courier and transaction details??

Not yet. I haven't heard from them. I resent the mails again today and I plan on sending it like twice or thrice every day until they send me my tracking number. If they don't want me to have peace of mind, their mailbox won't be at rest.

So, guys, I gave IELTS Academic a shot last week Thursday( using the Computer Delivered method. Result came out this morning and somehow, God helped me to get 7.5, and I prepared for less than a week due to the NSE urgency. But then, I am still not settled yet about the funding part, do you people feel I should add my funding letter plus mybankstatement authentication slip showing about 4,700 cad as financial support? I don't want it to be used against me since they specifically said mybankstatement,but then, I don't want to wait till God knows when for Visa application outcome. I just need general advice from y'all. Please, I am very confused.

Hi Kelvin,


What material did you use.


Tried attending a tutorial here, they said class is full.

Just got my passport delivered to me through DHL.

Its been a nerve-racking experience with VFS to be honest.

Submitted my passport to VFS on the 3rd of November.

When did you send your docs to VFS for the passport return after confirming they have your processed passport? Trying to find out how long it takes before they dispatch one’s passport

MissMC:

Lagos office? When exactly did you get the counterfoil?

Mehhhhnnn..with what I am seeing here, its as if no VFS in 9ja is reliable ooo.
Maybe it's best to send our passport to Germany or Dubai sef.

House please, which school is better between St. Lawrence College, Humber, Sault and George Brown? Please advise is needed
