aijayvee:
Picked up my ppt finally today but I no understand the date wey my eyes dey see o! Enlighten me house. My study expiration is supposed to be 2019, why the stamp from CIC dey read 2018?

Hope the expiry date on your passport isn't 2018? If it is that will be the reason, cos I don't think they issue visa beyond the validity of one's passport... I stand to be corrected if I am wrong. Buy you can always apply for extension when you renew your passport...

Congrats ones more

Anybody experience this error below while trying to check on update?

nairalandnewbie:
when i try tracking my application on vfs website it shows no record found? is that normal? i applied online

Check if the site you opened is vfs Canada and not another vfs, the reason why I said that is that, it happened to me few weeks ago, only to discover I was checking vfs south Africa... Lol.

dayusin:
Hi gurus . Please does anyone have any idea what this means ??. I still don't know what the final decision is

Check the correspondence below to see if there's another letter after the medicals sent, if none then complain through technical tab

mcobex:
You should hear from them before the end of this week or next week at most. But be prepared to request for another offer letter from your school cos the on eyou applied with might have expired when cic will want to approve your application (most offer letter expires a day after resumption)

Amen, I have contacted my school and was told to let them know if I didn't get the visa before on the 6th, which is today so they can defer my admission to winter. I have already mail my departmental postgraduate coordinator, waiting to hear from her soon.

Thanks for the word of encouragement... Really appreciate

EJIZY:
Hi...please when did you apply and when was the medicals updated?

I applied on 5th of may, 2017, got medical mail on 29th of August after serious prayer and mail to CIC, honourable etc... Lol

Did medicals on 30th of August, medicals passed and updated on 3rd of September

As far as it is a photocopy, it is acceptable.
Giving copy of documents to notary public, I don't think so, well I only certified that the copy is true in court, and didn't drop copy there. I haven't heard anyone here who notarized, talked about giving a copy either... Listen to other opinions on that

Augustinecu:
For those whose resumption dates have passed and are still waiting to hear from CIC, please give us updates on your application. Thanks.

Send in a mail for deferment till winter, application updated as medical passed, waiting on God to share my good news soon but won't be resuming till winter if my deferment is approved and granted

Medical passed... Call on 29 August, medical done on 30 August, medical passed 3 September
.. God I thank you for everything

OriEyeLe:
Please house, how do I apply for upfront medical at The Childrens Practice and the Consultants Practice? And how much? When am I going to get results?

Senatonato has said all you need, try to be there by 7:00am, because by 7:30am the gate man will bring the list for people to write their names ( Canadian and US medical test applicant), by 8:00 you will be asked to go in, where you will be given teller to go and pay #28,050 to Gtbank not far from the place, then come back for all your test.

Pls pay attention to the instruction that will be given to you strictly, and don't follow other people's instruction because the instruction for people who received medical mails is different from those doing upfront, so as not to have your medical result delayed.

More so, you don't have to go for collection, it will be sent to CIC, more reason for you to follow instruction strictly... Good luck

aijayvee:
It has been approved oooooo! I didn't read the mail finish, I say mk I come tell una first! Wow! OLOWOGBOGBORO! Thank You Jesus! Able God

Congrats... This is what I call victory at the last hour... Start packing your things bro, I am happy for you... God almighty will answer all of us still waiting to hear from CIC in Jesus name... Amen

Vickenny:
Hello here, please am new to this thread and just want to start my application against Fall 2018. I want to apply to both University of Manitoba and University of Saskatchewan. From the thread I noticed securing a supervisor is important, I sent a mail to both schools and was told I can apply without one. Please do you think I should go on and apply or still go ahead and find a supervisor.

While some school request for supervisor doesn't mean without you won't be considered for admission, as long as your intending research is related to area of research of available supervisor and you meet other admission requirement, you will given admission.

I applied to Manitoba, I was asked to get a supervisor, because, there was a place my application form that require a reference from a potential supervisor over there.

Having supervisor fore hand also comes handy during departmental admission recommendations to the postgraduate school.

check with the departmental coordinator for more info on that...Ire ooo

poesy:
This may sound trivial to some, but for me, it's a serious question:

Please should I pack my ankara materials? How easy is it to find tailor/seamstress in Cannyland?
The cost of ticket these days will not permit me to come home soon and I don't have people that fly back and forth.

It sounds funny, pack everything you can afford to pack that will make you feel at home in canny dear, except contrabands and illegal materials... Happy packing lol... Hope to start packing one day too...

guzenaira:
Your mail may not have done the magic but remember they didn't reply your mail based on the information you gave above. Mind you there was a clause in the auto reply you sent which states that
"We will review your message shortly. If the information requested is available on our websites or your application is still within standard processing times, we will not provide a response to your message" if am not mistaken.

Those that you said came for your head are not wrong and you that sent the mail isn't wrong either. Everything is a matter of choice and they only advised you based on their reasoning.

But we thank God it's coming out a success.

All the best sir/ma.

It is God's favour, things some people do and get burnt, some will do and get away... Sending mail after expiration of waiting time may look like desperation to some people, but you bring the applicant shouldn't express you frustration and desperation in your mail, a simple enquiry mail is enough...

My application was submitted on 5th of May too, I didn't hear anything from them till I exceeded the waiting time, I sent several mails to Accra immigration, use the case specific, sent to the honourable minister of immigration ( though I didn't know the mail belonged to him) and I got my medical mails too this week ...

God's favour is all that matters, he will favour all expectants in Jesus name...Ire ooo

Sorry for the delay sir, if you are going in for Fall session, get a deferment first, to retain your seat and get new admission letter, get your gcms and repackage

yomcy2016:
Sent you a mail abestine. Please i just have few questions i need to ask. can you kindly acknowledge receipt of same. thanks

Yes, I have replied to it sir

Judgepelumi:
I'm not sure, as I'm yet to see your reply

I did reply, the mail was returned, I have replied again, if it didn't go through, drop your number so I can add you to my WhatsApp chat, then we can talk

Judgepelumi:
Bro.. .i just pm you. Please kindly respond. Thanks

I have responded

CPA01:
Bro don't you think sending mails to the minister sound desperate?..

I think it depends on the content of your mail... I wrote to him and he responded even thought the response looks like auto response, but my application was updated for the first time since may and I got a medical mail... It may not be because of the mail though, but it happened after the mail, so I will be right if I say writing him doesn't connote desperation... My thought anyway

glam4444:
Congrats boss

Thanks baba mi... God will answer all our prayer request concerning our Visa

Frankrobbn1:
CONGRATULATIONS IN ADVANCE.

Thanks, God will perfect all that concerns our Visa, we will not miss this Fall resumption

Medical mail at last... Baba I thank you for everything

lanrayx:
pls does anyone know when universities reach admission decision for winter applicant with reference to uni of ottawa and concordia

I think some of their application is under assessment now, latest by ending of next month they should be able to arrive at a decision for international applicant... Just my thought I have an application for winter with Carleton as a backup plan, and it's been recommended for assessment as at the last time I checked... So relax, ur admission letter will come

This thing is really getting scary, first it was background check for 15weeks, now it is background check not applicable... God I thank all the same
