Bobomaigida:


They have concluded your application, the final decision will drop any time from now. That background check has since been completed. You can send a webform to remind/nudge the VO to give the final decision.

Since you were requested to provide medicals, then your PPR is 95% certain.

Thank you. I sent a webform 4 days ago and I got a mail this morning and it was denial. Though I’m presently on a visit to Canada. Do you think I should request for gcms note?

Stuck in processing background checks.

I am applying for work permit and I want to fill the form IMM5645. It’s my intention to relocate my family though but should I select NO for now on where it asks “WILL HE/SHE ACCOMPANY YOU TO CANADA” then after approval I can apply for them or I should just select YES?

Thank you i really appreciate and will do the things u suggested as for the payment upfront from the little research have I already know is a red flag for someone to ask for money upfront I'm only paying when I see things myself when arrive in Canada

As for the province I'm currently looking at Montreal
MONTREAL
VANCOUVER
manitoba

I hope they are affordable with reasonable amount of job opportunities and relatively have fair weather condition

Montreal is cold but not as much as Manitoba. Vancouver is the most expensive city esp North Vancouver. Toronto expenses are as much as Vancouver

A friend of mine has a problem with his application which was done by an agent. His application was denied and the wife own was approved because he did not state of his previous USA visa denial.
They requested for the their passports and visa issued to the wife and my friends own was taking long, we requested for his login info which was released then we saw his own was denied after severally messages to him telling him to correct that question of previously denied. All the messages was unread.

Solution: we want to reapply and needs suggestions.
Meanwhile how do we get the PDF of the previous submission? We need to know what and what was filed for them. Can we get that from the Gckey portal? The guys will not release it. Thank you

Also I need to let you all know that the our visa application was in 2021 by an agent. We had already forgotten about the application and in 2023 we were called for the PPR. We requested for our login info and luckily got it. The destination for tourism was Toronto but we didn’t fly to Toronto. We rather flew to Vancouver. On arrival we were met by someone who looked liked an ordinary employee wearing black trousers and white shirt. (Cleaners are more officially dressed than him) , approached us and asked few questions. Note; Very young around 24-28 years. I had no single idea he was an immigration BOSS as I was later told.
Note: He was not in a cubicle or stand. He was just walking freely.
Hi he said;
Where are you coming from?
What are you here for?
How long do you plan to stay?
Do you have a return ticket? ( at this point I was going to tell him please direct me to immigration, but something told me to be calm. My wife was just beside me)
How will you get to your destination? So at that point I was going to ask ; are you an Uber Driver? But I didn’t.

What do you do back home?

ALL questions confidently answered .

Then welcome to Canada. At that point I became confused . I passed through where he pointed and was looking for immigration to do their work then I realized I was at the baggage point , saw our baggages, picked them up and passed through customs without any question or checking and then I realized i was inside Canada already.

Good luck

I am currently in Canada with my wife on VV.
After moving round, there are 3 levels of bringing the family in as observed. ( I have 6 children)
1. Asylum
2. School
3. LMIA. ( two types; fictitious and legitimate) both works


After due consideration, I think the school option with a DLI school is more appropriate and advantageous. 2 years course for 3 years WP after completion.

Someone also suggested short course during the visit before applying for school. I am looking into this and will let the house know.

On Cost of Living, Canada is pretty cheap compared to UK, Italy, France and Portugal and Schengen areas I have lived amongst others.

Vancouver’s got a very good weather and not as expensive as people say. I just got to Alberta this morning and will check out Edmonton and Calgary and see how it is.

I intend going to Montreal and New Brunswick before returning to Nigeria.

It may be important to share that I got a job offer for CDL driver and customer service job which though I declined as both will tie me down for 25 months with about $26 per hour pay.

Wishing everyone one luck.

If you are around and you have a better opportunity or idea, we can meet up and also discuss I am currently in Windermere estate .

I want to book a flight for my wife and I. We intend staying for 2 months then return back. I just made a book on hold for 3 weeks so when we are in, I can put our return ticket on hold till we are ready to return then I call to schedule. Someone is also telling me to book the 2 months directly instead of that. Please house someone should give me an advice.

My wife and I didn’t study in Canada so I don’t know if we are eligible for PGWP. We both have VV. We didn’t apply with the children. 5 of them. We were advised by the IL to pay $20k for her to process LMIA (link) for her. Then I will use it to apply for OWP. Since she will be the PA. Then we can list the children under her to bring them in. We are yet to go to Canada and are opened to a better advice from this noble family . Thank you

It's just very annoying. Last year my husband and kids visitor visas was refused because of this significant ties in canada and we then apply for open work permit, and reapply for visitor visa for the kids. Less than 3 months later their application was approved.

Do they now mean that with work permit, he no longer has a significant ties in Canada? So annoying
Did you apply for the open work permit from Nigeria? My wife and I have a visiting visa . Yet to visit though. We didn’t apply with the kids . 5 of them. We didn’t plan to Japa at that time. Now it’s a japa thing, can the open work permit be an option for us?
