Send an email to iomlagosmedicalbooking@iom.int.
Attach your passport, mention that its an upfront medical for CA study permit. They'll schedule an appointment for you.

You don't need your ND transcript an important document is your HND certificate instead of ND transcript

ObiomaTailor Another option is that you can supplement them with your statement of result if you have one. What they want to see are your courses, grades and CGPA. At least that was what I used for mine though I understand different schools have different specifics. Good Luck.

Yes, my biometrics has been updated. I am using an immigration consultant. Is there a way I can track my application abi it's already late?
I don't even av Access to my portal cos they told me that they av only one log in password for all their applications so they can't give it to me.


They can create a tracker account for you and give you the login since it will be a separate account from your IRCC (although its not available for all applications yet).

Hi bro, pls what was the content of your webform? Was it just to ask for an update on the application?? Did you need to upload anything also?

[quote author=Teminio post=126689975][/quote]

Please it is okay to use different POF for school application and visa application? E.g. One person statement of account is used for admission and another for study visa application

Most. If not all canadian schools do not ask for POF before granting admission. POF is only needed at visa application stage.


Which is better, self sponsored or brother/husband sponsorship for MBA as a matured student with over 20 years post-graduation? N/A

Which is easier and better to pursue, Post graduate diploma or MBA? N/A

How much is sufficient for PoF for school application and study visa application?

Depends on the school (tution), province. IRCC Website specifies 10 000CAD living costs per year per individual excluding tution, miscellaneous expenses. You might want to inflate this a bit due to the global inflation.

Does school waive recommendation letter from school where all the lecturers are no longer in the system?

Again, depends on your school of preference. You can always email them for clarification. Also are there not other lecturers/hod in the department that could assist with a reference. I believe if you were a genuine student there'll be no issues with this.

How can one pay for application fee? Is it okay for a relative to make payment on one's behalf, if yes, how does one explain to the school.

Yes, they'll have to login to your account and make payment on your behalf.

there is no any power in webform anywhere, they didn’t not reply you because of any webform, it was just your time, my application is over 11weeks now August 10th, I can’t imagine how many webforms I have sent, even called MP nothing changed no one single reply from IRCC let us all just chill and drink cold drink.
You can't invalidate my response based off the fact that it hasn't worked for you. It was just a suggestion, so no harm in letting others try.

Can I apply to neighboring country to give Biometrics? For instance Benin.

Pls urgent response

You're applying from Nigeria, so it has to be either VFS Lagos or Abj. You can't use the VAC of a different country especially when you don't have status there. I stand to be corrected.

There is currently no Biometrics appointment date in Lagos and Abuja. I have submitted my application but still searching for appointment to give my Biometrics.

Any proven idea on how to go about this?

Time is of great importance. My resumption is January.

Keep checking daily at different times of the day, they update the available slots intermittently especially around midnight.

We are in the same boat, i also submitted on the 6th Oct, did biometric 18th. No response till this moment.
Kindly drop update once you get a response

Hi Ozone. Just wanted to chip this in. I think we underestimate the power of sending web forms. In my case, after waiting 4 weeks, I sent a webform, my medical was updated to passed. A week later, I was impatient and sent another webform. Eligibility started the next day and PPR the next. I belive IRCC are dealing with volumes and sometimes applications get forgotten in the matrix. Although yours is still early days. Wish you all the best!

Please guy I have a serious issue, and I need urgent answer plssssss, ..... We have been trying to upload our statement of account and other relevant documents on the ircc portal, which accumulated to more than 3Mb data size, but the maximum amount of data size than can be uploaded on the site is 2Mb.
So the portal is rejecting our pdf files and other documents, but when we tried to compress the files, the pdf file and other documents became too blurry. Please how do I solve this problem

What file compressor are you using?
Try ilovepdf converter, It compresses well with great quality still.

A friend applied for biometric with VAC but was given 20 of this month as the next available date. He thinks it's too far and would like to know how to go about it

Finally PPR.
The journey started in October 2022 when I did medicals for UK but the TB x-ray came out with scars in my chest and I was told to do sputum test. Result came out 28th of Dec 2022, 2 came out positive and 1 negative. I had to start treatment for 6 month and didn’t pursue the UK anymore. However, decided to apply for Canada study permit during the end of my treatment in May. I applied for Canada study permit May 31st and got denied June 22nd due to proof of fund even with 26m. Their reason was, I had the money quite alright but my salary cant provide me such huge amount, so I had to reapply and explain I got cash gift a year ago from my dad and showed when it entered my account a year ago. I also went further to get GIC certificate and paid 85% of my school fees since the school didn’t allow me to pay 100%. This was to proof that the money is mine and not for show off as they previously thought. By the way I had to do another sputum for Canada medical and also see a lung specialist to be sure I am perfectly okay. It was an interesting experience of almost a year. I thank God it ended in praise. Thank you @ketima for your advice, thank you @bigsammy for guiding me on GIC and how to draft LOE. Also, thank you @bobomaigida for reviewing my sop. God bless you guys. I hope this helps someone out there.
Submitted August 8 (second application)
Upfront medical July 3 which was completed and submitted 25th of September (changed to reviewing 25th of September
Eligibility review changed 26th of September
PPR 27th of September


Congratulations. I tap from your testimony.

Hi House. Please I am using two bank statements. Does it matter if the address on them is different. Also, the address is totally different from the offer lettter, as I have moved to a different area. Thank you very much. Also, after submitting online application for study permit, does it indicate your biometrics date, or we have to book seperately?

Good morning house.

1. My birth cert has name arranged as John Ciroma adekunle

But other documents show Adekunle Ciroma John.

2. Also my Waec Cert has my first name shortened to Ade Ciroma John

For 1, do I need to do a change of name or will an affidavit suffice.

For 2, will an affidavit suffice. Please advice, thanks.

This is most likely a scammer, but please note for future opportunities, so you don't miss out.

A company doesn't necessarily have to be present in the country or listed on the stock exchange to pay you in naira. eg there are third party companies such as Deel, Remote, Oyster that assists in cases like these. Read up about EOR (Employer of Record).
