Good morning to you all

About Medical Expiration, I want to get something clear.
Is it that one's medical mustn't expire before arrival in Canada?

Case Study
For Someone who did his/her medical on August 18, 2020, is such person still good to go to enter Canada like August 10, 2021

@Frankrobbn1 @JustMellow @Anon123 @Spectro

Thanks

Yes it's still valid. On cic website, it stated 1 year as expiry date.

Kayyyy:

@MzMisty,

Oga o, which office is handling your application? Lagos or Nairobi?

Well, from my research, if Nairobi is processing your application and you receive this type of email from them, it seems your application is not being finalized yet.

If I were you, I will call IRCC Agent on +18882422100 to ascertain both the primary and secondary offices processing my application. Please note that calling an IRCC agent is only accessible to the people in Canada, but there are ingenious and expensive ways people from outside Canada do it. Of course the IRCC Call Centers do not have access to applications that are being processed outside Canada, but they can help you confirm both the primary and the secondary offices handling your application. This will guide you on where to properly channel your follow-up emails.

Best of luck and Congratulations to you in advance.

MzMisty:


Hi Guys,

I hope you are enjoying the public holiday.

Please help analyze this email I got today from Nairobi in response to my email on the status of my application. I have gotten the "your application has been received and is in process" from the Lagos office and "application under active review" from Nairobi on several occasions.

This is the first lengthy email I have received from them. Please any suggestions on what this could mean?

Thank you.

Hello All,

Please if one has a departmental funding like assistantship, am I supposed to answer Yes to one question on if you have a funding from something something Canada on the visa application?

JosephYemsol:

Yes it's still valid. On cic website, it stated 1 year as expiry date.

Alright, roger that, thanks

1) if your intended course is related to teaching and possibility of running an NGO also involved in teaching. With convincing and evidence to back all claims up. You have a chance.

2) Yes, you are to prove how he is related to you. Birth certificates( the uncle, related sibling(either your dad or mum), pictures too. Also mention it in your sop and/or loe if its a reapplication.

3) please do not use company (my 2kobo)

4) yes but optional. You can but it will cost you more cos the certificate is issued in lagos and abuja.

Thanks!

But why did you say i should not use company, why?

And then, this is my first time of applying, do i need to include birth certificate or pictures?

Hi. We have same resumption date. Which of the schools pls?

Lambton college

Baggiomarrio:
thanks very much ..... please break it down. My scul is resuming this may . So that why am asking . I still don’t understand am just 18

Hello Baggiomarrio,

If an applicant is going through the NSE, an incomplete application can be traced to upfront medicals, MBS, IELTS, PCC (optional), Biometrics, etc.

Through the regular stream, an incomplete document can be PCC (optional), BS/MBS (optional except 'specifically' requested), Biometrics, Medicals (requested), etc.

n.b. during the peak of COVID-19, IRCC classified the inability to provide requested document/information i.e. inability to submit additional/requested documents or to give Biometrics, Medicals, PCC (optional for SP) as incomplete document and gave an extension of up to 90 days with the option of an extension.

However, IRCC has now reverted to the traditional rule of 30 days as VAC around the world are gradually returning to their regular activities even if they are still working with limited staff in some parts of the world. IRCC also states that if for some reasons associated to COVID-19 (lockdown), a written letter of explanation should be provided which would be at the sole discretion of the officer to refuse or approve the application.

I hope it is clear now.

Best of Luck

Thank you so much for the feedback.

Thanks Justmellow for your response

For more clarity
My sponsor(immediate elder brother) earns 1.1m monthly and has been working in his current job for 8months now with a new bank account but he hardly has tangible balance in his account but currently has 1.6m balance
He has over 8 years progressive work experience

As a family
We’ve been able to raise 10million and plan on sending it to his personal account as sales of property and generate a purchase receipt that would be notarized

Sponsor also has 1.2m in investment account and 6m in pension account
And 5 landed property at purchase price of 7million

Sponsor would pay my first semester fees approx 3m (compulsory to secure a seat) from personal account and also send 5million to my personal account for living expenses for a year

My parents aren’t financially capable, my mom is a pensioner and doesn’t earn much

Please do you think this steps I plan taking is advisable?

Hello JDforeal,

Advised. Just include your father's previous employment, promotion, and retirement letters. So are his IDs and payslips if any, or any other document to portray him as a retired senior citizen.

In order not to just narrate that he has been idle since retirement, if possible, you can draw up a contract agreement and receipt to demonstrate that despite been retired, he still earns painfully through the management and operations of his rental properties and/or haulage business, or as the case may be.

Best of Luck

Hello!
**

Please is it advisable that my company or my working place sponsor me for my study

RxOtunba:
Hello people, I need update regarding my bro's application, he applied through an agent on 14th December, 2020 and after forcing out login details from the agent today,

I saw that a correspondence letter dropped on 19th April, 2021.....Talking abt biometrics validation.

Same 19th, correspondence letter showing refusal based on purpose of visit, personal assets

Lastly, procedural fairness letter on 29th where the VO talked abt Eco Bank statement not being genuine, and he should respond in 15 days......bank statement is 100% genuine so I plan to send MBS on Tuesday.


My concerns are these;
-Is it possible to get procedural fairness afta a refusal? Or is it that they are trying to reconsider him?

-Application profile states "Action Required" I thought it should be "decision made"

-Profile still shows "we are reviewing your eligibility..." and also "we will contact you when we make a final decision"

Hello RxOtunba,

Nothing is impossible with IRCC. Even if an application has been approved, it can still be refused if the decision was made by an induced error on the part of the officer.

A little story... In some years back, someone who had applied from Singapore after PPR and sending PP for the vignette to be appending – have the shocker of reality when the PP was returned without a vignette and a letter saying the application was approved by error and welcome to reapply.

I am not sure about the number of days the PP stayed with IRCC, but the moral of the story is nothing is impossible until formalizing a successful landing.

The same was also noted sometimes in 2018 or thereabout where approved applications with PPR were still sent for secondary review and refused followed by a PFL. The secondary review was the verification of the financial record.

I believe this explains the situation you presented. Send the MBS coupled with a letter of Reconsideration.

Best of Luck

Thanks a lot for your feedback
If I understand you, I should indicate what my parents to in my sop?

emmalextemtop:


Thanks!

But why did you say i should not use company, why?

And then, this is my first time of applying, do i need to include birth certificate or pictures?

How do you explain to a visa officer your company is willing to pay a tuition fee worth 4-8m from their own pocket and it won't affect the operations of the company like paying salaries.

If you dont include pictures, how do you further prove that your uncle is your uncle and is related to you from your dad or mum side.

My points is a birth certificate might not be enough

Hi, please is it compulsory to do ielts exam and if it is compulsory is it hard, what are the odds?.

Chimahsom:
Please I did Upfront medical on 20th of April but it hasn’t been updated on my page
