i applied for canadian visa on 4th june, till now no reply, im meant to travel next week friday. what should i do? should i call vsf? I travel alot ad i lived in canada as a student on legal documents for 3 years; im just going to visit my sister who is a legal worker there.

I don't think there's anything vfs can do abt it. Deres a link Ademola sent a mail to confirm his own processing. It's on dis same page. Just send CIC a mail. Hopefully you might get a response.

edogasz:

Don't be waiting for mail o. Always track . I applied may 19th and I was waitin for mail and tracking once once . One mind just say track today and I saw it was dispatched yesterday , yet den no send me mail

Yea thanks. I'm tracking it too just dat I got tired of doing dat. But I won't relent.

Nawaoo,,so we still have cases like this?These guys actually forget some pple's case.....Did u send a case specific enquiry? Na 24hrs I give u dem go respond

Yes oo. Forget is d word. I just pray d docs are not misplaced. No I haven't sent dat one o. I just wanna be patient. I will just send a case specific enquiry or go to d embassy n call for my passport n docs.

Mehn....Reading the comments here....i guess i should just forget about mine for now. I submitted on June 5 for myself and 2 kids. Already bought tickets for July 31st (though refundable with a fee). I've never experienced this kind of wait for visa, it is just unfair.

Lol. Your comments made me laugh. You need to be hopeful. I also thought d processing was just for a month. We are all still trusting God on this thread.

ohk9ner:
lets hope for d best!!!

Yes dats d best option for now.

I checked CIC website and found dat it takes up to 54 days to process visiting/tourist visa. Mine is over 54 days though n I haven't heard from them. I sent them a mail to remind them about 2 weeks ago n still no response. I just pray we are still considered.

I even replied you on d other thread.

vinegar:


You are only advised to book a ticket after ur visa application has been approved....u dey vex o.....maybe u shud try sending them a mail...20th May is a long time ago...

Not as long as mine. I submitted my application on d 5th of May n till date, I haven't heard from them, still processing for over two months. I already sent them a mail n no response yet.

fados4sure:

My brother, if you have the capital abeg i kneel down beg you go into the business. Why did i say you should go into the business?
Two weeks back, i came to victoria Island for interview and i was amaze that there was opportunity in transportation business. If you think am lying, take feasibility studies from Ajah park to Obalende from 4:00pm to 10:00pm one can make up to #15000 within that period.
Incase it work for you, don't hessitate to send me gift oh..

It dosnt work dat way bro. D only way he could make his money n keep it is for him to be driving the bus himself. Btw do you kow how much dey pay daily to deir park chairman n all d agberos, by d time you calculate everything, you will only have money to feed for d next day. Not to talk of traffic in Lagos around dat time. Dat is Wat dey call peak periods. I kow of someone who bought a bus n gave it to a guy to drive , d guy stole or probably took smth from another person's bus n d owner of the bus went to jail for it. D driver ran away. N thinking about how d drivers drive recklessly, you will realize that any damage done to d bus will be taken care of from d pocket of d owner. So how much is left my bro. You should kow if all dis drivers/touts make up to dat, then deir lives will be better off. Dis is my own observation. Thanks

I guessed almost all visitor visa applications are pending for now,my friend applied for a student visa June 6 and was called for medical last week friday,it's like this VOs are insane for neglecting our applications,woud try to go to the Embassy this week to make a compliant and know the status of my application, Canada is not Heaven On Earth,USA give almost 70% of applicants that applied on a daily basis as quoted by the consular.its so annoying the way we been treated in our fartherland,its a pity.

Yes I think going to d embassy to make a complaint is Wat I will have to resort to. But I'm still taking my time. Cos we really can't wait forever.

ohk9ner:


it means they suppose to hv replied us by now....so why is there delay......

Yes they ought to have replied by now. It's over 54 days already.

kennykentipsy:
do I need a uk visa to transit via England cos the flight am about to book will stop over at Heathrow airport England before proceeding to Toronto?

No you don't have to. My husband travels with British airways n stops @ Heathrow for about 4- 5 hours before heading to Toronto. I have never seen a UK visa in his passport b4.

ohk9ner:
@bimbofela still hoping for d best....but i want to ask, is d 54 days, monday- friday or all d 7 days in d week...

I think it's 54 calendar days. So dats d 7 days of the week.

ADEMOLAAAUA:
@ bimbo,mine was on two basis sports and tourist,the sport competition ended yesterday,but don't think it would affect since it's a tourist visa,something good would happen this Week,just keep the faith,it would end in praise.

Amen bro. I appreciate your prayers. Though mine was on d basis of grad n reunion, grad has passed but d reunion is still intact. God dey.

@ ohk9ner and @ Ademola , pls hope d purpose of your visit hasn't passed? cos mine has passed o.

ohk9ner:


@ bimbofela so its true about d 54 days

Yes it's true. I saw it on the CIC website. N dat should be d maximum period Yur application should be in process.

ADEMOLAAAUA:
@bimbofela,the Canadian embassy have changed there processing time for visitor visa,it has been updated on the CIC website,it takes 54 working days now.So hopeful you would get your package next week,wish you best of luck.

Wow. Well d last time I checked it was 54 working days but I felt since people got theirs in 2 weeks,one month, I just thot it should be ready around dat time. Cos I realized d same goes for d study permit. It's supposed to be for 3months n people still get their study permit in one month or two. So I dont kow Wat to think or believe o. N I don't think dat timing works o. But I don't have a choice, I will wait. Thanks so much for d update.

[quote author=Jaydee1985 post=35423395][/quote]

Thanks for your concern. N no I haven't heard from them. My application is 2 months old already n I'm still waiting. Don't kow Wat to do.

ADEMOLAAAUA:
@ bimbo,we just been hopeful abt the visa outcome,no info yet,don't knw why the Canadian embassy is treating applicants this way,maybe the VO's are on recession. Sent them an email yesterday no response from them till now.Lets keep the prayers and fasting going.

The way the Canadian embassy treats Nigerians is quite very bad,no means of contacting the embassy directly,when you send emails nor calls,they hardly reply...no one has a full information of what is going on,am so fed up of the so called process.For over 6weeks no response...Only God as the final say.

It is well bro. I guess you sent them a mail too. We will just have to wait. It's really not fair.

Teeboy22:
