Have you tried again, refresh the page and reenter the details. It did so mine too, though I called them at the point when they updated to have handed over the passport to DHL and DHL said they haven't picked up but DHL later updated the same evening. I understand the anxiousness but it will be processed and sent back. lilylurv: Na VFS, At first it was saying processed passport has been dispatched to Canada Visa Office...now, it's NO RECORD FOUND.

Ooh what an experience, however mine went properly along with the tracking both with VFS and DHL. I think some of these things tend to be human error sometimes. Favouriteguy: Hello guys, I am back again. The online tracking and all those failed and kept me on anoda long waiting queue.
I sent my passport 15th Sept and started waiting. I mailed VFS global after 3weeks and I was sent a tracking number. Everyday I check VFS and DHL site but nothing changed. Me that has gotten passport request, why is it taking too long to give it back to me?
On Friday morning in the office while working on a serious task, I checked again and nothing changed only to get a call "Hello Sir" the DHL man called. I rushed out to receive my package, still nothing changed on both sites but the man told me my passport had arrived on Thursday. It was after I had opened my package that I refreshed and the site updated.
The tracking is good but the package can be ahead of what the tracking currently says.
NB: Mine is a permanent residence visa submitted 15th Sept and returned 29th Oct. |

Thanks for this information Luckymama: Hi all, Just wanted to chip in a few updates. When I was active on this thread around 2019-2020 I was always on the lookout for people who can give information from the other side. Having information about how things actually go on once within Canada helps with planning.
1. If possible, please apply for at least a 2 year program. I assume most people here are planning to get a work permit afterwards and from there get to apply for PR. It's not that easy. Getting a job after graduation is not so straightforward. And for a lot of provinces, you need to work for 1 year before you can apply for PR based on work experience or Canadian Experience Class. So if you graduate and it takes 3 - 6 months post graduation to get a job (best case scenario), your one year work permit would have expired before you can apply for P.R. Besides most employers don't like to employ people who do not have long-term work permits.
For those planning to travel soon
1. Nothing you buy in Nigeria can handle Canadian winter . Don't spend a fortune on 'winter clothes'. Just buy the little you will wear from the airport to your homes or for the first few days you land until friends and/or your hosts can help you buy appropriate clothes.
2. Please do not leave the airport without it being specifically written on your study permit that you are entitled to work part time (20 hours) during the term and full time in summer. No matter what the border officials say, insist on the endorsement. I made that mistake when I landed in June - she told me it doesn't matter and everybody knows that students can work. Turns out it's not true. You can't work without a SIN and no one will give you a SIN (Social Insurance Number) unless your student permit says you can work. I have been trying to get my student permit amended since June till now. No response. So please stand your ground at the border and insist. |

Congratulations, it was meant to happen. lilylurv: If they say who submitted the most clueless application, na me but when God is involved, protocols are waived
I submitted long before I even discovered this group on NL with the guide of a friend, and our thoughts as at then was that it's just a permit without TRV, since border was closed then.
Oya, here is my 'tori'
I started the admission process last year when the lockdown was so serious, around April, but could not get LOA due to the fact that I was unable to get my transcript...by the time I could lay my hands on it in July, 2020... Admission don finish...I was told to change my course for the ones available in January 2021, but I decided to wait it out till Sept, 2021.
2021 came, I received my LOA on 1st of June, after a deposit of 265o, okay...wuruwuru, I combed 'inside and outside'...I came up with this few documents and submitted...then backed it up with midnight prayers, afternoon prayers, church prayer points, morning prayers, anywhere prayers...I prayed all through the process o...because if it by documents, I did not even submit half of what I'm seeing here 
Documents Submitted
FORMS All the IMM forms Passport info page LOA
POF Sponsor's SOA (3 diff accounts with total sum available close to just 9M but with huge inflows and outflows) My personal SOA with balance of 3.6 Bank's Reference letter from sponsor Bank's confirmation of signature (mine and my brother's) My work ID (I work with bank) My confirmation letter (was given this long time ago when my appointment was confirmed, thank God I kept it sha) Sponsor's CAC documents and cert (I only used the on for his school, didn't even bother about his main biz) Sponsor's International Passport Notarized Sworn affidavit to sponsor my education with our photographs stamped on it
CLIENT INFO SOP _ written by me, proofread by my friend...said I should make it as short as possible, ended 2 pages pere Signed Letter from my mom to care for my son while I'm away His birth certificate My CAC DOCUMENTS - I have a biz related to my course registered since 2018 - though not in operation TIN Certificate
Lobatan
I didn't even know I have to submit school certificates, payslip, photographs, PCC, even my car documents, I no submit o, no landed property, no Mom's ID sef, nothing and so many other things...my friend kept telling me 'Dont try too hard to convince them, they see you as desperate'
Above all, I prayed! I fasted, I did personal vigil asking God for favour.
And, indeed, The Lord answereth prayers!

There must be a document from CAC that shows a list of the company directors and the shares allotted to them, here your name must show. You should attach that to your CAC certificate. That's all and when writing your SOP, don't forget to mention how you plan to ensure the company keeps running in your absence to show financial flow will not stop. Toceen2022: Hello house,
I know it's important for self sponsor applicant to show the source of POF. But for someone like me that owns a business, it's a registered business with CAC but the certificate I have is only "certificate of registration of business name" it does not show my personal name. My questions are:
1. Is this what Self-sponsor applicant who owns a personal business need to submit. (see example from picture) 2. As it doesn't show owners name, how will the Visa officer knows it belongs to the applicant? 3. Is there any other documents that need to be submitted to show I own the business?
Thanks in anticipation to anyone who likes to respond to this. |
Travel › Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by CalcreteJB(m): 1:35pm On Oct 28, 2021 |
Did you mention who will manage your business in your absence to ensure that money keeps coming in while you are away? You are leaving your current job, meaning no more salaries. I think you need to look into those areas. The new equipment you also bought, did you mention why you bought them and what purpose they are going to serve to support your studies?? Pls check these areas. HakHim: Thank you for your response.... Let me explain to you... I did engineering, I am working in my field I applied for a course in engineering. Reasonable expense might be that considering all the money I have will be spent on the education I am planning to do in Canada...remember this was said from my first application.... As I feel they judged me based in only my salary .... So I had to break it down on how the money rolls in.... Now I have a business already established... I even have a company CAC... Then I had to get a new equipment to add to the existing one to show that I still plan to continue my business which I feel was a good home tie (my own thinking).... I told them about my parents as well but I did not put the pictures of parents or siblings.... But I used a sponsor that's my cousin different surname.... But I added his picture of me and him together.......I then added my finance also... Also landed properties ... Then I explained how the course I am going for will be beneficial to my current job and Nigeria at large.... And about the lump sum ... This was from the first application in my second application I stated that I have transferred all the cash to my other account so there was no any lump sum in the second application.... |

I have read from someone else on this platform who also did the same thing and my discussion with a friend in Canada was that it wasn't part of the requirements though its fine if one puts it. So I guess for anyone who still has the stapled slips should include as it does not hurt and for those who can't find theirs, they should add the BVL printout. God will help us all gracedson: You might just have been lucky, I’d suggest those that did not have the stapled biometric papers should still attempt to get it. |

the truth is they would have sent your medicals. I did on the 13th in Abuja too so I don't see any reason why they should delay your result. Send mails to them and keep calling and if you can go back to there, try to visit. I hope you already uploaded the proof that you have completed your medicals?? atiteb4: y not go to the hospital? Keep sending emails too. |

I added the BVL paper instead of the stapled biometric papers and mine still got treated. So I think for those who can't find their stapled biometric papers, the BVL printout can also work. @Kendrickkk Omiinii: How I sent my Passport to Abuja.
I did my Biometrics in Lagos but I sent my passport to Abuja, So I had to pay a transmission fee of NGN 8,920 to this account CANADA LOGISTIC COLLECTION ACCOUNT (a/c no 0065165839) sterling bank.
I bought a fresh brown envelope and added the following documents, so follow:
- Your International Passport itself (That your passport !!)
- Print only 1 copy of the transmission fee payment receipt and put in your envelope
- 2 copies of your passport data page (I printed it in colored copy)
- Those stapled papers that was given to you after the completion of your Biometrics (put them as it is [original copy] not the photocopy)
- The PPR letter (1 copy)
- 2 copies of the Consent form (I filled and signed the second page only) . Download the consent from here: https://www.vfsglobal.ca/canada/dominicanrepublic/pdf/Consent-Form-TTS-English.pdf
- A plain sheet of paper where you can write your address and phone number (this is not really needed though, but I added it) NOTE: I paid for 2 ways Courier at DHL and insured it to and fro
2 courier means: As I am sending my passport to Abuja, I want Abuja to send back my STAMPED passport to the address I stated on the Courier

considering that they have treated your passport. What will sending through webform mean now? Will they recall the passport or it will aid renewal when by next year May when this issued one expires. I already have the new LOA but I didn't just upload, should I upload now because my passport has also been treated. sirenoel: Yes, I plan to send my via webform once I receive it from my school so I don't have issueson arrival in CA. For some reason, its been taking ages to be sent. |

Which means, one has to print along the new LOA, I fall into the same category here, mine though will expire by November ending 2022 and I deferred to January 2022 from Sept 2021 sirenoel: I believe the study permit that would be issued at the point of entry will be updated to my new acceptance letter.
