Good morning all, wishing us all a fruitful Friday.

Please I am experiencing a bit of challenge while trying to add my baby with the documents I have. While filling the webform, I was asked for the processing office and I have no idea.

Please, for those that are in my current situation or understands my challenge, please how do I navigate this.

It's urgent I add my baby as soon as possible to avoid delay with the application processing.

Please, what do I do? I have requested a friend to help me request for GCMS notes but he has not been successful with that yet. He is a Canadian citizen.

Help a sister please ������

Hi
Thank you for your response. I got in contact with an inspector in Lagos, he asked I send him the previous PCC we did in 2020. we sent him the PCC and he sent us a new PCC. I paid 8k

Dimple10:
Fingerprint is needed but she can do it herself with a stamp pad. Inspector rose assisted my colleague last week. She'll send the form with directions via whatsapp. All you have to do is take the prints, scan and send back to her along with data page of intl passport, pay and she'll forward completed copy via same platform.

Hi

I just got a police clearance certificate (PCC) request for my wife who is currently with me in Canada on a work permit. She did the PCC in Abuja in 2020 when she was in Nigeria. She moved to Canada in September 2021. My question is is her finger print needed again to get the PCC from Nigeria?

I think you should resubmit the document IOM gave you when u did your medical test.

When I applied for spousal open work permit for my wife and her medical test result was still valid, I got a medical test request close to when the visa was approved, I simply sent them d document again and stated I did an upfront medical. I even called the chief nurse in IOM and she told me they uploaded my result. The visa was approved not long after that

Zerotrust:
Hi Guys/Gals, I received a remed request today from IRCC. my initial medicals should expire on the 3rd of March 2022. Is this normal?

Eilenora:
Hi guys,
Please I need clarity on something.
So i submitted hubby's application last month. With the new timeline for 52wks i.e. 11 months, vis a vis the validity of a written authorization being 3 months, I am wondering if to send the email to IRCC for one or not? I have read in previous posts that the written authorization helps the SOWP application move faster as sometimes they dont even treat your file until the request comes in. But if that is approved for 3 months and SOWP hasnt come out by then (which most likely it wont have given this 52 weeks timeline), what happens then? The written authorization would then expire? Please advise on what to do. Apply for written authorization now or wait for a few more weeks?

Write that letter and send it ASAP. Without the letter, they will do nothing about your application!!. They requested you write the letter to notify them that you are travel restriction exempt.

Congrats.

Yes Abuja is really fast, faster than I even expected. I learnt that they might charge u extra if you didn't do your biometrics with them, I am not sure though.

I dropped my passport at DHL office, they guided me what to do, they are conversant with it

FYsol:
Hello All,

I just got a passport request, from what I could gather here, it appears Abuja VFS is faster, I am based in Lagos, can I send to abuja VFS? Your quick response will be appreciated.

Sorry, she submitted her passport 09/03/2021

cyris:
She submitted her passport 10/03/2021 to DHL Abuja. She got a call from DHL that her passport was on the way to her on 16/03/2021 and she got it the following day 17th.

CimNosa:
Hi everyone,

For those who got a passport request, How long does it take to get the passport stamped?
2 weeks, 1 month?

It was given to my spouse same day she did the examination. IOM at Abuja

etjigger:
How soon did you get your medical report from the hospital ( your own copy) ? Was it given to you the same day tht you had the medical examination or was it on a later date.

my eligibility check started after my application was approved, yes you read that right.
I attached a screen shot of my application page, its still saying they are reviewing my eligibility. it appears they dont have time to update the different sections. lol

sumsitall:
Congratulations and thanks for sharing with us your timeline. However, I would like to know when your Eligibility Review started. Or it never started at all before your visa was approved?

I attached the document you requested for if you haven't already got it. Good morning

Jetline:

3. Good morning,
My name is (my wife's full name), my date of birth is ...... and my online application for a visa is in process.

My details are as follows:
Application number: ......
UCL: .....
Passport number: ...

I submitted my application in June 13, 2020 hoping to join my spouse (a PhD student on a temporary resident visa) in Canada latest December 2020 but currently the progress update on my application has been stagnant so the earlier I can join him the better for me.

My spouse returned to Canada few days after our wedding and the physical distance between us coupled with Covid19 lockdown and restrictions have dealt a heavy blow to our marriage. Initially, I thought I could cope with being physically separated from my husband for a while hence I went ahead with the wedding but the toll on us right now is unbearable. I have attached a document stating my eligibility and more detailed reasons for my travel.

I currently live in Nigeria and I plan to travel latest February 2021.

Kind regards,
my wife's name

4. reminder email:
Good morning,

I earlier sent the forwarded travel exemption request and its over fourteen (14) business days but I haven't received a feedback from you so I am speculating that I probably didn't follow the SOP.

My name is ..., my date of birth is ... and my online application for a visa is in process.

My details are as follows:

Application number: ...
UCL: ...
Passport number: ...

I submitted my application in June 13, 2020 hoping to join my spouse (a PhD student on a temporary resident visa) in Canada latest December 2020 but currently the progress update on my application has been stagnant so the earlier I can join him the better for me.

We got married in Nigeria on December 13th, 2019 after which my spouse returned to Canada to continue his PhD studies which made it impossible for us to spend quality time together. Our marriage is young, and the physical distance is currently having a strenuous impact on our union and establishing a stronger bond between us. From all indications, my spouse has been negatively impacted by our separation. Quite rightly, the physical distance between us has been counterproductive to his academics and we are looking forward to being reunited as soon as can be.

On my part, it has been difficult to live with this development. I wasn’t prepared for the emotional and psychological trauma being separated from my spouse would bring me. We communicate most times by social media but this has helped only a bit because of several unfavorable prevailing realities surrounding our distant relationship two of which are frequent and prolonged power outages and internet network service downtimes in Nigeria. Worst still, there is a 7 hours’ time difference between Nigeria and Saskatchewan where he is, and so on a daily basis, we have a barely 3-hours’ time window to have a conversation which is frequented by unavoidable interruptions. To say the least, this has been very frustrating and does a disservice to our tender relationship making us grow apart. I am, therefore, humbly requesting for your support to allow me join my husband in Canada.
I currently live in Nigeria and I plan to travel in March 2021.
Kind regards,
Name

Hello

BabyCanada:
Hello guys!
I got my study visa and I'm to come to Regina soon. Is there anyone that has an affordable place to rent close to University of Regina? Thanks. Oh also, apart from the cold, what else should I expect? Is there any University of Regina student or graduate in the house?.....Hello?

You neva hear? Dem say Nepa don go cut that light when dem say bin dey at the end of the tunnel for Nigeria

Maize621:
I came to Poland and in this short space, I have realised how messed the Nigerian system is. It doesn't build her youth for success, it destroys them. Here, we're hopeful for tomorrow as there's light at the end of the tunnel. We can see it, and it is for this we put in hard work

I applied in June 13 2020 with upfront medicals, did biometrics in August 24 but no update till date.

sumsitall:
Is there any September open work permit applicant here that has been approved visa?

no news yet o! Being optimistic is the only option now o

after writing to d local govt, mdgs office at minna, commsna for education without getin any feedback, i prayerfully employd 5 strategies to get my finance, beliv me wen i say it was tough. 1. I first formed 3 mdgs clubs in 3 schls n tru d students, i printed letters n distributed from shop to shop, weda small or big asking for contributions, they beliv when they saw d crowd of my club members. 2 i n my students visited some prominent members of d community with proof of som of d minor prjts we had executed requesting for assistance, most of dem contributed well after sevral disturbances 3. with permissn, i gathered all my volunteers and we went round d comm for a rally collecting #20, #30 etc. 4. contribution frm studnts n staff 5. Payment we recivd from our decoration works we did
My LI was an impediment, she neva playd her role, i call her on d fone, she say 'u r very stupid'. In all God was faithful, God used my mdgs matron in her place.
If u want to do a prjt, b ready for anything it will trow at u n dont tell me u couldnt get support because support is all around u. D comm may look discouraging but what they need is someone who means business n who would nt stop until he gets what he wants.
My advice is this, first win d minds of ur comm thru ur students, voluntarily take extra subjects, form ur club, do som minor projects like debate n quiz in a popular place in d comm perhaps with ur money, den use this as a proof that u r not a fraud. Visit dem, call dem, pester dem, use ur students n accept watever d amount . I rememba a woman i so disturbed that wen she contributed, she said she was doing this to have peace, dat dis case is like d woman n d unrighteous judge in d bible.
