we are speaking the same langauge. It is a collective thing, but the politicians are not helping matters. Nigeria has a very terrible image which should be corrected unfortunately the sitting president has been entangled with alot of controversies needless talk about issues over the years. How can you not relate this with events over time
Your assertion correlates mine with no iota of discrepancies.

We have alot of work to do.

To apply for visa in an African Country is even more tougher these days than some european countries. I saw some post wode maya page on facebook, and sure he did speak my mind on recent events.

Imagine working for a South African Company and your visa still get rejected. crazy!

The thing tire me honestly....

I stopped putting the blame on government some while ago when I started looking outside the box..... Government did not fall from sky, the peoples make the government.

You see ehn, Nigerians abroad has badly put the country reputation to the garbage.

Whenever I travelled and see how some Nigerians behave overseas makes me wanna hide my identity but for me, I still stand gidigba as a Nigerians. But it's what it is.


It's better Nigerians should stay away from south African Embassy for now,,,,
Only them actually knows the fuse they have with Nigeria.

Available

hunee:
Blame your Politicians for the travails of a common Nigerian. Everyone typically sees us as fraudsters but we like to live in denial as a people. Is it not becoming obvious that the excuses for refusals by South Africa is as a result of a failed state.
Even when you attach original documents, everyone thinks it is fake.

- Invalid bank statement
- Invalid yellow fever card
- Invalid this and that ( Even when they are duly stamped)

Nigerian politicians are the ones selling drugs all over the republic?

Are they also the ones constituting nuisance in SA and the rest of the world?

South African Embassy don see shege with forged documents by Nigerian travel agent.

I can't blame them, it's their country and they have every right to deny any application.

Many diasporan don finished Nigeria reputation all over the world

Update!

Finally got a refusal.

Even after replying them with a letter to explain the oversight for ommiting that part of section 16.
I declared my US refusal but forgot to declare Canada past refusal even when Ive been issued visa after that refusal.

Anyways visa refused
I got 3 expired canadian visa in my passport.
I'm a frequent flyer to Canada.
I've never stayed more than 2 weeks on each visit.
Travelled once or twice in a year.

Goodluck to everyone.
Will reapply later in future.

Finally got an approval 🕺

I reapplied and sent a emotional appeal letter via webform, application approved in 2wks.

There's these lady that has 5 kids she and her husband can hardly feed the children even 3 of them are not going to school. I saw her recently with pregnancy. It's just so annoying bringing children to the world to suffer

Terrible people.
And they will be complaining the country is hard.

Adding more poverty to the economy.

People should stop assisting that kind of people

Good morning nairaland.

Please I need help urgently o.
I received a fairness letter from IRCC this morning.
Saying I did not answer one part faithfully, which I was denied visa in the past or not.

Meanwhile I qualified for Can+ because I have been to Canada multiple times in the past.
Infact my last visa just expired last November, I've never stay more than 2 week in each visit.

I was giving just 10 days to reply them with evidence.

Please what can I send to them?
Is it just a letter of explanation or my expired visas with travel date?
I'm confused

Hi,

Even if your Eligibility is Completed (Passed for that matter) you can still be "Refused" in the area of Info Sharing/Security Checks and more.

If you paid close attention, You will notice that most people denied from backlogs are those who lied about their previous refusals.

It was noted from the January 2022 memo that eligibility will be relaxed in the area of Funds and other rigorous criteria, so i think they fulfilled that memo.

I can see refusal flying up and down since the 2nd of May.


Regards,

Pls how can someone know if eligibility is passed?

Tracker shows completed

Hola55:


My Biometric and Eligibility has been completed on tracker too, no Bvl, have sent mail to them twice

My believe was that once eligibility is completed, BVL should come immediately.

IRCC and their way Sha

Hola55:


How far? No Bvl yet?

Nothing yet oooo

Plz what do you think I should do?

Keep waiting

Hola55:



Kindly go and track your application now after you replied them to see the status of your application, your Biometric, Eligibility etc for confirmation to know exactly where you are or in other words if you will need your GCMS note.

Thank you Hola55.

I tracked and noticed my app got updated yesterday April 19, showing.....

Eligibility completed
Biometric completed.
Background check ongoing.......
Documents number not available yet.....

No further instructions from them yet.
No BVL yet also

megastu:
Admit to that and explain with a very detailed reason why it was missed. You can explain that you have applied and received canada visa in the past and you did disclose those refusals in the application.

Take PFL very seriously. You might receive a 5years ban if not answered satisfactorily.

Good luck.

Yes I have admit to it and explain all through.
I've done my best to explain in fair term.

Hoping for the best now.
On God 🤲

Thanks all

Shamaaa:


Hello, please take your time with your response and respond accurately. There is no harm in mentioning your previous visas and perhaps state that was the reason you forgot the previous refusal. All the best.

Thank you so much.
I'm drafting my letter already.

Someone said the VO actually wanted to issue the visa reason why he sent procedural fairness letter to that effect, to be sure it was a mistake from my part.
Said some VO will refused the application immediately on that ground.

LANDING GIST
My ticket was booked for 29th August
Got to the airport with my family at about 7:09am. The security at the entrance allowed only three people to enter with us. My husband sha went back outside later to bring my mum and mum-in- law in.
Our bags were scanned at the entrance and we were directed to some people by the side of the scanner. Those ones were like ehnn we have liquid in our bags and plenty story started..( money things). We proceeded to Agricultural bla bla stand( those ones collected 5k) I don't know who would travel without food in their bags.
From there we joined the queue and we're waiting for Ethiopian airlines to open their stand for checking. That took almost 45 mins. All our bags were below 23kg ( my husband closely monitored the packing). He didn't want to pay extra for excess luggage so we weighed less than 23kg from home believing the scale at the airport would not give correct weight( naija things)..well we were surprised cos our luggages no reach 23kg..e pain me sha cos I left some personal items back home. After clearing our bags and showing necessary docs, we took pics with our parents and left for departure ( it was an emotional moment). After that na immigration checking our traveling docs and asking questions. You go come back? Who dey go for study? Who carry who dey go?
We sha boarded around 12:30 pm and took off around 1:30pm. Flight to Addis Ababa was smooth, my son slept most of the time and food was okay.
We got to Addis Ababa in the night( not sure about the time) and joined another Ethiopian airline flight going to Toronto.
We had a 1hr refueling layover in Dublin but didn't disembark. Then we took off for Toronto. The journey from Addis to Toronto seem like forever. It was longgg and tiring. When we got to Toronto, students with family were directed to a separate room where we did self declaration and also registered the identify of those accompanying us. We then proceeded to the desk of the immigration officer. Mine was a woman and she asked for our passport, introduction letter and a receipt of tuition payment. I didn't make any payment because my school didn't require a deposit and I told her just that. She literally looked me in the face and said' I find it difficult granting you access if you can't show any commitments to your school'. I quickly explained the challenges of paying with Form A to her o and told her I had cash with me to do the payment. She asked me how much I had and how much my tuition for a year is. I gave answers to both questions and she said 'fair enough' then she stood up and printed our permits. From there we went to get our bags because Ethiopian airlines dropped them all at Toronto airport. We had to start searching for our bags and trolley to carry them. We checked them( bags)in again for our flight to St John's. At this point, I was just tired and couldn't wait for the trip to be over. We landed in St John's airport around 4pm on 30th August. The stress and journey was all worth it. I also noticed that everything here is a process and in stages. If you have a guide here, be thankful to God.
For those who would be traveling with toddler(s)..may God give you plenty doses of patience. My son showed me pepper. At some point he wanted to carry equal bags as myself and my husband , other times he would just refuse to move his tiny legs, and we had like 5 bags with us( 3 carry ons and two extra) we would beg him in English and threaten him in Yoruba. The boy no send us o. This same human would be calm in the plane o and keep other people engaged and entertained.
I Pray the Land of Canada favour us all. To all PPR hopefuls, the Lord will answer all your heartfelt prayers and you shall testify.

I wish you the best in Canny land.
