Gentlesoul3268:
Please I'm at the point of attach my documents on new IRCC portal but it's stated there that maximum documents size is 2mb please how can I upload if I have many documents ? Please advise me on how I can upload many documents

You are the second person that mention web form please what that mean and can I use it to upload my documents


Please advise me how to upload many documents on portal

Lol stop panicking, use ilovepdf to compress. 2mb per file not 2mb for the total number of documents.
Webform is used when you have a new information to add or you probably missed out any docs while doing the application.

I do not believe in this "#ToErrIsHuman". Time and time again, I've always advocated for people to be very intentional about this immigration thing. If you want to do it, then put in the works and get shit done.
I have applied for a Canadian TRV before and took over a week to fill, review and submit the application. How do you make a mistake on a dependent child's birth certificate, I don't get it.

Well, for his sake and that of his family,. I pray they reconsider and approve their application. This is too grave a mistake to make after getting to this point. Chaii

Some one did this and still left out her child’s Birth certificate. It can happen to anyone. To err is actually human that’s why we aren’t programmed computers.

Congratulations @cnwamo

Hi all,

I implore you to read. I have been saying the same thing for 2 years now.

As some people noted, people don't want to work and want to be spoon-fed. Learn the habit of settling down to research.

The Canada you want to go to, if you can't read, wahala for you o. Offer letter, Lease agreement, information overload everywhere...all the pages are long. If you know even sabi read sign, fine dey wait for you.

Cultivate the habit and be valuable to the thread.

Don't come and ask how to register for IELTS when you use a smartphone.

I wish we had more emoji’s to comment because I want to say sound on

Wahala for who apply for visa in September and October o. See how they’re doing me dirty, I’d have waited till November to submit.

chiago95:
Guys, I want to enrol for Masters in the UK, for September 2022 precisely. I have a degree in Human Anatomy, BSc (Second Class Lower Honours, 2.86 GPA). I intend studying Public Health MPH.

Please, kindly and strongly advice me on a good school to choose.

Note: Budget is N9m.

I will also like to be within London metropolis as I've got relatives there.

Which schools do you think is feasible for my pursuit? In London and UK generally.

With good discounts too on the course.


Bless you!


@justwise and @everyone coman help ya brudah o

London metropolis is generally pricey in terms of everything , mph you mentioned caught my attention as I know a few people who did mph in Northumbria Newcastle. Newcastle is also my fave place to visit

Hello.
I have been self employed all my adult life. Started my business in 2014. How do I prove my “employment status” & work experience? I studied Business Management & Administration & with NOC O range.
How do I also prove my salary?

I want to apply for the SINP. Please help.
Thanks.

Read ten pages back and read page 1 , your answer is there , graciouswords dropped a link to people who claimed points with self employed.

brownsucre1:
Look at all the epistles you guys are writing in minutes, if this was a green horn asking for information it would take days before a response would be volunteered and you would never see any of these voltrons helping

The voltrons will not help because the green horns want to be spoon fed and they keep asking questions that a simple google search can solve.

Gentlesoul3268:
You always be helpful anytime we needs your help thanks very much Debbie

Due to I don't know specifics time the Canada tourist visa now, I'm planning to perfect my travel itinerary to Easter, now I'm about o fill the form I was asking to tell more about what I wanted to do in Canada include date?
And I believe that someone can apply 3 me nth before travel plan... I don't know how to calculate when my travel plan would be.

Please from what others have posted how long it took them to reply ?So i can know how I can plan my travel date

Please how do you package your travel plan ? how many month you apply ahead pls so I can write my itinerary

Thanks very much Debbie like you always did on Uk section

If you want to travel for Easter it’s very advisable you apply now and include your dates and everything in your application.
Nobody knows how long it’ll take to get to get a response. On the new portal people have gotten responses as early as 16 days and some shy of 2 months. The earlier the better.

Gentlesoul3268:
Thank you very much Debbie

Do they going to collect our international passport from us? Because I read here when people said they got a letter for passport request for submission? Or they are opt to keep my passport ?

Please clear me on this ?

Do you have ideas how long the visa processing for new portal now ?

Because if I want to apply now i will mention my travel date ? Also I want to use it to calculate when I will stated that I'm travel for tourist?

Lastly I mine going to write my travel itinerary like how we did for UK

Thanks

1) No they don’t collect international passport but the passport must be with you when you attend your biometrics

2) no I have no idea how long processing takes now but you can read a few pages back to see timelines of those who submitted post September 7 update

3) everyone’s application is different, I didn’t do an itinerary per se, I’m obtaining the visa for a reason and I stated it there and sent documentary evidence to support my claim. But you should do an itinerary it makes your plans tidy.

kkeennyy:
Hello, please I need help. I got PPR and then dispatched my passport through DHL who have confirmed delivery since friday but I am yet to get any email acknowledging receipt of my passport. What do I need to do?

Wait till they acknowledge. That’s Lagos vfs for you.

Gentlesoul3268:
Good morning debbiee

Please I wanted to apply for Canada, when you got the biometric request ? Did you book appointment at vfs before you go for biometric or you just go directly

Please guide me how you book for biometric and also did you submitted your passport on the day of your biometric or they will request for it when is time .

BIOMETRICS

Requirement for BIL

https://visa.vfsglobal.com/nga/en/can/book-an-appointment#

Go with
(1) International passport
(2) 2 photocopies of your datapage. Write your email address and mobile number at the top of both pages.
(3) Print the IRCC letter of Biometrics
(4) Print the Confirmation of biometrics appointment sent to you by vfs.
(5) Pen to fill a form.
You are good to go.

In addition to the above, Canada Biometrics submission center is upstairs when u get to VFS office.
Meet the security at the entrance who will issue a ticket to you, then u will be directed to another security guard who will issue 2 consent forms for you to fill. After filling the forms, wait till ur ticket number is called. It's at the counter u will submit all the documents you came with including the form you just filled. Ur documents will be placed in a pouch and you will be directed to where ur Biometrics will be taken.

After this, ur CIC profile will be updated same day.

monchat:
When is black Friday abeg. I am traveling on 2 Jan

11/26

monchat:
Pls anybody that knows any ticket company for cheap flights. It is very expensive. Any assistance for airline from Lagos to Birmingham, kindly assist. I am getting for turkey airline for 650,000 . Traveling time is next year January.Thank you

Wait till Black Friday or January itself. KLM & Air France fly to BHX airport , emirates too. Ticket prices will reduce. Tickets are high this period. Set an alert (price alert) for your route. You’ll get something within your budget.

overlord77:
How can the school send what they claim not to have seen? I opted out of using EXT because the lady in my school advised against it for stories such as this. EXT would have made life a lot easier but you know how our people love to frustrate fellow humans.

This seeing and not seeing verification happens with Wes directly too and it happened to a friend , wes kept sending verification emails to central admin email of the school and not post graduate. she was at this for over 6 months because wes won’t send another email if it’s not 7 weeks since the last was sent.
After school finally found the emails they responded and wes said they never saw anything and school has to send the thing via dhl hard copy to wes. This verification wahala is a general wes problem , it is not only peculiar to using ETX for transmission.

ianian:
My friend is still battling verification for 4 months now.

I used ETX for my transcript delivery to avoid the verification thing because I read on previous PARTS that ETX delivering your Electronic transcript won't require WES sending school verification mail. I am worried now because I don't wanna go through all this.

Tell your friend to tell his or her school to send the verification via post.

Iamajala:
Oh I thought you were referring to the unavailability of appointment dates to limit or discourage people from applying.

Lmao Uk people that like money and are looking for money, they’ll never keep people from applying.
I’m just curious as to the recent no appeal or administrative review right they’ve just implemented, I think it’s unfair. I remember me and my friend sitting together to write an admin review letter for her application in 2011 immediately after she got denied and she was called back and issued a visa, I can see some petty petty denials here that an admin review would have worked for but they’ve stopped it.

jagzmoles:
I only used that to pay for the visa fee but after that it didn’t work when I was about to pay for priority

If you’re using a Naira card the limit is $200 for GTBank, so it will work for visa fee (6 months)but won’t work for priority

Iamajala:
They can’t pull the “American Method” that is why they have the (priority service) because the sudden influx I believe is a “trap” set by the UK govt, more than 17,000 visas has been issued only this year alone, you think they don’t know what they’re doing? 99% of students that applied are approved this has drastically increased UK revenue saving them from Brexit and wreck from Covid-19, student visa fee alone is £348 + priority £220 + IHS £500+, then tuition fees minimum is £10k + living expenses, this is per student, and they know working 20hrs/week + 2yrs Post-study permit, you can’t recover all the money spent. Like someone rightly said “UK is doing PROMO” now

I’m aware of these breakdowns, by the “American method” I meant massive denial to keep people to keep applying over and over again.

Mzyetty:
I agree. I am silently rooting for you. I pray your renewal is done promptly. Mine took 8 weeks exactly. 40 working days! Though it's my first time applying.

Thank you Yetty
Wow! a whole 8 weeks, we don’t really have an option in any way. Glad you got your passport back and I can’t wait to get mine back so I can travel for Christmas and if not , we move in January.

Lilydexter:
How many weeks now?
When did you do your biometrics?

2 weeks now, 26th October

Kolizomanizo:
Exactly. We are all predicting for christ sake.
We are not ircc. We will get there by his Grace.

Let’s see how it goes, the main thing is that constant general draws will make the thing drop.

Iamajala:
Hmmm then they should stop saying “will be processed within 15working days” until they get things under control.

I’ve not even bothered to track my application since, they need to remove that 15 days timeline for Nigerians, other countries are still getting theirs processed within 15 days though. My main bother is that I hope they don’t pull the American method on Nigerian applications because this sudden influx pass their power.

Mzyetty:
I agree it's Good news but is it really
What will 200 do? But what can we do? Good news it is

Actually it isn’t but at least a slight improvement from the inconvenience and they can even do better because this restriction isn’t even funny at all.
