TravelRe: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by dabson2020: 4:53pm On Apr 19, 2022
Hello, I faces the same challenge whilst applying for my visit visa.
I was able to resolve it by adding employment details without gaps. Start with the first job. For instance:
Start date: sept 2015, end date: June 2016
Next job
Start date:June 2016, end date: Dec 2020
Recent job
Start date:Dec 2020, click 'ongoing' if still on the job.
There can't be any gap
You can add the offer letters of these jobs if you wish you back up your employment details.

All the best

jogojogo:
I am unable to proceed beyond employment details, applying for visitor's visa on the new portal

When I clicked save and continue , it does not go beyond this point
Any advise pleasehuh?

I'm here again oo, I just received my Child's PPR message
few minutes ago, but surprisingly it came as an email from one of Nairobi's email addresses, with the attached PPR letter, I dont know what to make of this shocked.

I didnt get any of those no-reply-cic messages from IRCC. What to dohuh

Edited: And I just checked my GC account to see application cancelled, could this be a system glitch or what? This is confusing really.

Anyways, it's a PPR News, ALL GLORY TO GOD ALMIGHTY, IT SHALL SURELY END IN PRAISE FOR US ALL.

Hi everyone,

Thank you to everyone in this forum. The information here is gold.

I am study permit applicant (Feb 1st 2021) and i also have a family visit visa application since March 2020. Eligibility has started on my study permit but no feedback on the family visa application. I have sent several webforms concerning the visit application but kept receiving the generic mail. Eligibility has not started on the visit application and when i requested for the GCMS note sometimes in November, 2020. The comment was 'Prospective'.

I will like to ask if there is an issue with having 2 visa applications.

Your assistance will be appreciated.

Send them a message on Twitter. Same happened to me and they explained the reason for change of status. It was sorted after few days

Documents had my WES REF NUMBER and name in capital letters, each page had my ref number and name in capital letters. Faxed hubby's certificate myself and had no issue.

After about 24hours, My timeline changed from 'On hold' to 'We received your documents........' Even when I got an email that all other documents have been accepted except my statement of Result and put 'On hold' again, WES confirmed receipt of my documents and changed to 'We received your documents..........'

I know I'm repeating myself but it's getting really frustrating.
Thanks

You can send the paper waec card bought online. They will not reject it.There is a form from WES for WAEC where you need to fill the scratch pin and serial number so it is not mandatory that you buy scratched card. This information is clearly stated on their website

quote author=TemiGee post=77709116]You can send it yourself by courier. I helped a friend send his own scratch card and WES received it. However, you may need to contact WES and inform them that the scratch card was sent with the WAEC documents and then chill for their response. It is highly unlikely that they will not see a document that was sent to them.

NB: I hope you sent an unscratched card? If you sent that paper for checking result that WAEC sells for 700/800 Naira, they will reject it. It must be a proper scratch card with the unscratched silver covering.[/quote]

NorthernshoreTS:
Hello, DW and I were in a similar situation just very recently , same HNWMC. The issue with the discrepancy in paed bill is because the paeds are a separate entity and are not "affiliated" with the hospital and as such their services are charged by them and not the hospital. HNWMC should stop misleading patients with their quote for paed. What I suggest is that u call the number written on the bill and speak to several customer care reps until you get one who would give u the lowest bill. Don't rely on the first person u speak to. That was what I did. I spoke to 4 reps at different times who gave us 4 different bills, as such we opted for the lowest bill which ended up being $900 from over $3000 which we were initially charged. Don't bother calling Shelly (financial counsellor ) , she can't help you out In this case.
Hope this helps.
I just got their bill this morning and same bill of 3800 was given. I will follow your advise. Thanks and God bless

Hello everyone, I am a silent follower, though followed this thread from part 1. The information on this thread is immeasurable. Got to JFK on Sunday Monday around 11:50am. Flew turkish airline. Fly was great. Inflight entertainment and food was awesome. Our plane was the only one that landed so the queue was not too long. Got to the CBP officer with hubby and my son.

CBP: hello chaps (very friendly guy),
Hubby and I: good day.
CBP: passport pls? Gave him all 3
CBP: why r u here and how long are u staying
Hubby: I and my son are staying 10 days and wifey staying 8 weeks.
CBP:ok
I quickly added that I am here for childbirth.
CBP: faced me and said, oh kk. How are you paying?
Me: paying cash.
CBP: how much do you have?
Hubby: told him amount we had as cash and on card.
CBP: the card does not matter. Am OK with the cash. Do you have food?
Me: yes, cassava flour, yam flour.
CBP: he had stamped us in already, then he cut me short and said, oh typical Nigerian food.
We are smiled.
CBP: have a lovely stay and safe delivery.
That was it.
Spent less than 3 mins with him.
Agric checked only one of our bags and told us to go. In all, we spent less than 6 mins.

God's favor all the way. It was amazing. I can't thank God enough.
South West messed up with my boarding pass to fly to houston after I had checked in my bags but refunded me four times the ticket amount. So I flew American airline.
Had my first appointment today with Dr. Nicholas office. Went well.
Resting now.
To all other mothers on their way to US, God's s favour all the way IJN.
Coming back to share the bills as soon as I deliver by God's grace.

Thanks so much montrealer

will reapply against winter 2016

montrealer:
It's either you apply alone & then apply for your husband and son later or you get a co-sponsor.

The funds you stated are insufficient to convince the VO. You need a more buoyant SOA to pull off a successful application for your son & yourself.

Things VO takes into consideration include: his childcare fees, clothing & supplies, in addition to your tuition, room & board. Also, there has to be a buffer (about 20-30%) of your total SOA left for your husband's upkeep. After calculating all your needs.

Sorry about the delays but it can be remedied.
