I accepted the loan offer
But didn't get any support letter
I only got a mail confirming I accepted the loan

You won’t be granted a support letter, you have to go to your dashboard and get the document. I think it has the heading ‘private loan approval disclosure’ or something. It’s that document you will have to add to your application.

Keren12:
Heloo guys. Please, in my last application which was last year August. I used access bank for my proof of fund. After refusal I notice that this guys want to milk me with stamp duty charge and some unnecessary charges . I got angry and moved all my money into a different bank. My question now is access use to be my salary account when I applied. But now I am working for myself. Hope no issue if I apply with my current bank?

Yes, you can, I use Access bank for my salary account but I always move money to another bank. And it was that bank's statement I submitted. As long as it is yours and there is good inflow and outflow, there's no problem.

Third party PPR Announcement
Second time applicant

First application (4 years bachelors degree) in September 2018, rejected in October 2018 due to third-party sponsorship with no evidence of previous support to applicant. Sponsor then was applicants uncle, with different surname.

Second application (2 years bachelors degree) on December 20 through old portal.
Sponsored by brother, a PR in Canada.
Upfront medical passed in January
Eligibility started March 01
2 GCMS notes. 1 in Feb and 1 in April.
Lots of emails
Lots of fasting and prayers for favour.
PPR May 05.
May admission deferred to September

Full documentation coming. We know how to send passport, but have some questions.

1. How and when should the applicant inform IRCC about the deferral?

2. How early can the applicant arrive in Canada? We want not just statement from IRCC website, but real suggestions and experience based on international students that arrived.

Thank you to all those that drop their full documentation and GCMS before December 2021. Thanks to everyone sharing other infos like embassy email. They were very beneficial towards packaging and following up on the application.

Congratulations. I’m happy you got it the second time.

Nitand2:
Good evening great people, please I received this mail from one of the MPs I mailed some weeks back. Please I don't understand what the poster code means, please guru's in house kindly put me through.
Thanks

Most likely, they will expect it to be from the province you live in, in Canada.

Teezkid:
Hello guys! Do I really need a letter of sworn affidavit for my sponsor ( uncle )?

Hi!

I don't know what you mean by sworn affidavit, I would just assume that an affidavit is like a letter right? yes, you need one, Make sure it's formal and addressed to whom it may concern to the immigration officer and he also signs. In fact, it's important.

ninab:
You already know I am so happy for you

Canada would favour you .Amen

Thanks a lot babeeeeee

Tupalo:
Congratulations dear... Pls Can I have a review on how you put up with your SOP please, I mean the reason you wrote on why is your uncle that's sponsoring you which is a third party.

Yea my uncle is not a sponsor per se, he’ll ‘financially support’ plus I also mentioned myself as a self sponsor providing my bank docs that I can also support myself. Mpower served as the heavy lifter for money.

Hey guys, it’s PPR time, I woke up to it by 7:00am today and I was told to check for an update on my application, lol, I kept breathing hard to the part that says my final application has been approved. Then I started shouting.
Funny enough, the first gcms note I’ll ever order is meant to come in by Saturday this week.

Docs submitted at first when I submitted my application:

LOA
Uncle letter of financial support
His UK bank documents 4 months
Passport photograph
International passport data page
My bank statements 4 months
IMM FORMS

Another document sent later and added on through Abuja on 1st of March
- Mpower loan document

Other documents sent letter and added by Abuja on 28th of March
- Employment letter
- IMM 5257b_1
- Letter of explanation

Because I never submitted optional documents, and as the name implies, it was optional, until I saw a post here that says it doesn’t hurt to submit them, I rushed to submit them because it can push your application further.

I needed to add new financial information to the IMM1294 form and correct would accompany you tick boxes on the IMM5646 form. These were updated IMM documents and I wanted it added to my application.

The MP requested for an update on my application from Ircc on the 9th of April and helped to pass the documents across plus proof of enrolment of courses for May.

I submitted documents again through Abuja and it was added on 3rd of May, like 2-3 days ago.
- my uncles British passport/ a citizen
- Another letter of explanation explaining funds/money/sponsorship
- Some chats we had, screenshots
- School transcripts and degree certificate
- Nysc certificate
- My CV
- His business card, he owns and Co runs his law firm in the uk
- My birth certificate

Application timeline:
- submitted January 15
- Biometrics added in January 18
- Upfront medicals and updated to pass on February 22, 2022
- Eligibility review started on ending of march or 1st of April thereabout
- On 9th of April, MP confirmed to me that Ircc told the office that Medicals and criminality has passed and eligibility is still in review.

I really appreciate the information I got on the platform, it made me wiser and strategical.

I didn’t submit a lot of docs cause I believe it’s not by submitting a lot, but the genuinity of each doc and the proof it serves.

Special shout out to Teemenzo, Nina, bucky for always answering my questions!!! I can’t wait for your pprs……… guysssss… can’t wait!

My Application is 5months today,eligibility is not started(hopefully it’s going on in the background)
Medical was from a previous application it was not updated till Feb 15th,after daily mails
May God help us in this journey coz sometimes it so hard to hold it all in,can’t even make long term plans,it feels like being stuck in a box.
But like it’s said Good things don’t come easy…it will certainly end in praise for all of us.

exactly the way I feel, all plans are tied in.

Azedolf:
Please what's the way forward i have no family or sponsors in Winnipeg and this is the second mail from the MP,

Please anybody that can help me out I'll be glad

Look for anyone that can represent you(someone schooling there or living within that region), not necessarily a friend/fam.

you see, all of us stuck at We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements. God will come through for us because we are going through a lot.

nk20:
Non yet o. May God hear our prayers

Don’t worry, we are getting today.

Ayotola2020:
Hello all,

At last I got my PPR today after 5 months and 3 weeks , almost 6 months and 26 days after bvl�������������� The waiting was excruciating.

Special thanks to the rear gem on this platform @makano. He is truly competent in visa processing. I almost gave up but he gave me some advices yesterday on how to mail IRCC which I followed through and my PPR came within 24 hrs����� �

Infact my application was part of those he posted yesterday with bvl and no PPR for 26 days.

This is my timeline:

Application date: 10th Nov,2021

Biometrics: 12th Nov,2021

Medical request: 15th March, 2022

BVL: 24th March,2022

PPR: 20th April, 2022


Like I said earlier, special thanks to Makano. I am a silent member on this group but I got a lot of information here that helped me. Makano kept reassuring me when I was down.He is vast in the visa processing and also very compassionate. God bless you greatly sir.

God bless everyone here taking their time to share their timelines. I would be an ingrate not to share mine.

For all other waiting, it shall all end in praise �����

Congratulationsssss

nk20:
Please who is in the same situation with me?
Submitted application 23th January
Upfront medical
Biometric completed February
Eligibility review started 24th March
No news again since then
School resume 9th May

Please I just need someone to be calming me down
I can’t even sleep or eat again

I get this feeling, Hi nk20, do you have any update on your application yet?

Omiinii:
I'm sorry for commenting abruptly. I would like to go back and confirm your statement but it's useless now since you've taken offense to my modest opinion. I will take note of your moniker and delete my misplaced opinions.

Take my apologies. Hope you get your visa soon. Goodluck and God bless.

You don’t need to apologise, just had to point out something.

Amen to all of us still waiting and thanks

Omiinii:
200 is a bit too much tho. You can be blacklisted if you don't know. Be strategic in your approach. The staffs in charge of triaging your query or enquiry aren't the ones making decisions on your application. I know someone that has been sending mails for 3 months nothing till now. If you think 200 redundant Mails will expedite your processing you're wrong.

Even MPs can't expedite your application(The always make this clear in their responses. They only situation they could is if the application is way past processing times) If you're past 6 months maybe sending mails to the MP is the way to go.

You have to be strategic. what do I mean send your enquires at times when the officers can see it. Considering their time zones. Be more emotional in your enquiry. Sending 3 times every day in a week is enough(at 8am, 9am and 10am Nairobi time). And not copy and paste change the content of your enquiry. If the officer is ready to release your decision he/she will.

You can also call Nairobi, the number below:
(254-20) 366 3900. Hours of operation is 7:30am - 4:00pm GMT +3

You can also mail Abuja and Lagos. These are assisting offices wouldn't have bulk queries like Nairobi. These officers could assist. Triaging your request for expedition.

Lastly, order your notes. As I said and bolded previously if an officer is ready to release his/her decisions they will. If you get your notes you might find out a decision has been made and you're approval bound but for certain reasons. The officer hasn't sent the correspondence.

Goodluck

I don't understand where this is coming from;
- I didn't say I was sending 200.
- I never said I have not ordered my notes, I mentioned someone that has sent 200 overall(him being strategic about It or not, I don't know), and - I never mentioned I am not mailing Abuja or Lagos at a strategic time with different subjects and contents. Saying I am sending a number of emails is just like a joke of "no peace", but it doesn't mean that's the amount I am sending.
I don't like the way you assumed things about what I'm doing, know or don't know. I have done my own homework. Thanks.

Emilo:
For Christ sake, how can you send 100 mails to someone in one day? If I'm the VO i wont approve your Visa. Cos you go be like who go disturb Canada peace.

It looks ridiculous but it is what they deserve, besides I’ve seen some sending 200 to the point they begged them to stop. Lol

makano:
One thing you all should know is that Canada Visa (Express entry, Study permit application, Visiting visa application, spousal permit application) Application is not for the faint hearted, you just have to keep pushing until you get what you want from them..

You also have the choice to relent, its up to you..

When it comes to Canada, you have to be prepared for situations like this, but when you eventually get that precious PPR, you will forget all your sorrows..

Peace

Thanks you just gingered me, let me schedule my 50-100 emails for tomorrow. No peace

makano:
Hello Beatson

Keep sending mails until you get a favorable response, its part of the tradition here..

Sending multiple mails wont lead to a refusal, never.. So don't be scared of sending them multiple mails..

Except you are tired and fed up, then u can stop..

But I will advise you keep sending them mails cos you have every right to, your application is well passed the processing time and also your resumption date is very close..

So keep sending them mails until you get what you want from them..

Peace

This mail thing has taken a toll on me.

Chyigb:
The waiting will be worth it eventually, in all you still find strength to help others by sending helpful tips.
Waiting for your testimony

Amen, tysm

Halyshia:
over 2 weeks now have been sending them emails and webforms but no response, aside the generic ones...I’m also to resume by May,sigh

It is well, I would advise to not think about it too much because this thing is really taking a toll on people’s health. Just take it easy and do the best you can do.
