* choice I will NOT like you to make

Wao....God will create a way out... honestly there should be something you can do when I was despite last month The VFS office said the only option is to terminate the process....but even if it is terminated what is the assurance that the passport will be pass back fast ...the only wise solution is to pray and raise a webform pleading, also attach your flight booking and others as evidence of urgency because terminating after all the waiting is a choice I will like you to make ... another thing is if u have someone in Canada to request for your GCMS notes from there it takes about 15 days that will give you a clear picture of what is happening....

Sorry....I was also frustrated until I called them at VFS today and I was told my passport has been returned back to them... maybe you should call VFS ...if nothing raise a webform.... maybe it will help ...I truly understand ur frustration

Congratulations.........I tap into this testimony oooooooo I submitted my passport on March 12 after I Got PPR

Pls @ all I hail o , has anyone who submitted passport on PPR in March been called for return .... Honestly dis wait is crazy.....

Honestly I don't think anyone know o....but they are so busy with student that they have to send Nigeria student application to other visa office as far as Vietnam , China and some other funny places to enable them meet visa processing deadline which is by September 15th. It's really affecting visa decision honestly students are not finding it funny . So I know we would start to hear from them.. even ppl that have approved application have not been getting there passport return . But let's keep hope alive that thing will go back to normal very soon.


Please do anyone have update on canadian visa. I applied since February I have gotten any response from them after my biometric[/quote]

Home ties is that thing you can never leave behind, what will always pull you back home ...eg good job, family such as aged parents, children,spouse , siblings. And good landed property.

@lordAA use another browser eg Firefox

You can go to dere website to read about parents of PR ...she does not have problem if am right she is entitled to super visa ... Do your research and you will be fine

I don't really know how to share link on nairaland... if you Google Canada application webform it will link you and you will have opportunity to be aware of a lot of other things there website if very rich with information . But you need to know the visa office that is processing your application ..most TRV is processed at Nairobi, Kenya mostly

Send a web form with your explanation about your passport, go for a new one and upload the data page of your new one as additional documents am sure a lot of ppl are in that condition presently because of these covid situation so in my opinion it's not a big issue .. book for your biometric and go for data capturing with ur new passports passport is just for identification I think the most important thing is your BIL

Apply ...but try to ensure your home ties in Nigeria are stronger than the one in Canada in ur application...so you won't be denied on the ground dat you would not return back home.

What are my chances of getting a visiting visa?
I would be applying by the end of the month any pointers would be appreciated[/quote]

Honestly I hope there is a way. Have you sent a web form? If not try sending one and call VFS directly you can check their website for the number..., some days ago someone posted on this forum that VAC contacted her for passport return so am sure they are working with limited staff member and things are slow .....but for paper application it's on VFS website that it has been kept on hold till September 30th I don't know if that has been reviewed. we are actually at a very challenging period but God will see us through.

@ebyne..did you drop the passport upon passport request or it was submitted together during paper application route, has she been requested to do medical...to properly answer you.....I need to know does information.

[yes ...but for a successful application many things are involved not only travel experience I have not traveled outside of this country before and my visa was approved with my first attempt]
Hi people. Please is UK and Germany okay as travel experience for application of Canadian Visitors visa? I have Germany Residence Permit(more than a year). Should I still go to Turkey?[/quote]

@tjadeniyi congratulations..pls when did you submit the passport and where is the passport going sorry for the plenty question... I submitted mine on 11th of March .... thanks

Thanks.
]NO 2
For those looking to Passport return from VAC, I just saw this now and decided to share.[/quote]

Thanks.....that is relief


VAC have started dispatching passports that are in their custody back to applicant's mailing address. I know someone who got his passport returned to him last week. Did you pay for any courier service charge after the submission of your passport? if yes, then i would advise that you should keep sending emails to the embassy while you CC: the VAC until your query has been attended to. At this present time, your passport is still with the visa office in Nairobi.




It will end in praise.[/quote]

I applied for work permit...so most of my documents like LMIA, job offer letter, permanent employment contract, was all from my employer...all I provided was IELTS, WES certificate evaluation documents, former and present employer reference, marriage certificate, pay slips with 6 month statement of account ' my salary account'( I had less than 200,000 in the account sha o), filled all the forms..... before visa approval....I sent a mail to VFS request for my passport and they replied it's at embassy... embassy said it's still under processing.......I just want to know if anyone has received passport passback recently by courier.... thanks

Yes you can request for GCMS using GCMSBUDDY.... goggles it and it will lead you through

It's really worrisome...I submitted my passport for visa stamping since March 11, I haven't heard anything from them.

Congratulations..am happy for your SOWP and praying . I sent in my passport for visa after it was approved in March 12th up until now I have not heard from the embassy, I sent a mail and they said it was still under processing....just wondering when they will pass my passport back

I submitted my passport for visa since March 11,2020 up until now nothing has been heard from them .I sent an email to VFS and they reply that it's been forwarded to the embassy , why the embassy said they are still processing and said they will get back to me if it's ready for pickup honestly am really tired just to put a visa stamp after approval, pls has all the Canadian in embassy been evacuated back home ?? Or kilode I just want to know if anyone has gotten it's passport back through courier since they said that will be their new means of passport passback. abeg I need way forward because I need to travel soon....
