This thinking for VOs.. CIC will not turn someone's head. If you can defer your admission, it is better to request for your file (GCMS) so you will know what the VO considered.
Apart from financial reasons, the reasons usually ticked (purpose of visit etc), we can only speculate, we don't know for sure. Applications are treated case-by-case.

@dbabba Sorry for the delay

Request for proof from the hospital to be sure that it has been sent. The proof is exactly like the eMedical form you were given to upload during your app, but this one contains a comment that states the exact date it was submitted. Then send the proof via email to accra, dasall!

Thnks ma! It has been resolved and I've received 'med passed' update

Finished NYSC Oct 2014, not employed. I believe you can use whatever you have to your advantage, so I used my voluntary/community development activities to cover up the small gap (HIV and Malaria awareness, I organise and give free vocational training etc.)
I included CV, incase VO does not take time to read my detailed LOE, CV is straightforward and highlighted my activities.
I read through the thread from part 5 till present. It pays to read back, so you will know what questions to ask and who to ask.

And I'm a simple applicant

Medical passed!!!

Pastor Team12 I'm waiting oo

Crich:
Congrats, my fellow Microbiologist. Although, over the years, I changed my career course.
Thank God your app has been approved. Praise God.
Your song makes me feel you might just change course like I did, n become a G.O. Lol!

MCB Thank you
Lool... That song became an anthem!

Madam @Team12 I called Consultants Practice back and I was told my med result was sent to CIC on May 3rd. Went through your posts and I saw that you sent an email to accraimmigration. I just did and I got an automated response.
Do I need to ask Consultant to re-send the result?

Team12:
So happy for you. Congratulations!!! Since you have called the hospital, that's the first step (hope you gave them your UMI number?), but ensure you call again today to be sure they have sent it. Mine was sent in less than 30 mins after I called them.

The VO herself.. Thank u oo!
Yes, I was asked to call back in 30 minutes..

Taike:
Congratulations! @deedee0

Thank you! You and @dbabba next...

Gu2015:

I just received a mail for medical examination.
But I did upfront med.. So I've to call the hospital to send my result to CIC
@Team12 Please how did u go about it
I will list my documents soon, need to calm dwn frst

CoCoLav:
Now I can speak my mind. Its unfair when you guys only come here when you need help. Some of you have been so called silent followers and get your medical calls but you don't tell the house. You will now come back when your medicals don't go smoothly or you have other issues.

The second category are those who come here to tell us they have been called for medicals and after that they disappear. When did you apply? No answer, what route? No answer, oya documents nko, that one is even worse. Meanwhile, it is from this same place you got clues on the documents to package and steps to take. Its really unfair. The information that you have been called for medicals is useless to us if you won't tell us the documents or other relevant info. If you won't tell us what we want to know then pls stuff your good news down your throat cos personally its of no benefit.

The above is said with all due respect and not directed at any particular person

Spot on..
Like! Like!! Love!!!

dbabba:
Seems deedee0 and I are next. Expecting positive response. Na to do all night tonight. Jacob mode activated

Lool..Na to wrestle angel oo! I will not let go until you bless me..

Yums:
Thanks Shola!!

Aww no i applied through the paper route...

Don't worry u'll get urs soon

Chai... Heartbreak

mizIvy:
Don't mind those vo. I always tell people dat some of these VOs na enemy of progress. Anyways it's obvious it has nothing to do with ur employment or sponsor. Maybe they are not convinced of ur intentions or maybe it's cos you emailed them, so they just rush thru ur documents to get it over it without checking important documents or even reading ur sop. I have notice in most cases if u send them that reminder mail they assume u r too desperate n it's instant denial. Same tin happen to me wen I applied for UK tourist visa. I was over anxious n i emailed them, immediately they replied that they've not yet process it n ll let me know wen they do, like 5 hours later I got their rejection mail. All am trying to say is reapply, write a great sop infact 3pages is allow then just let it be especially wen u have 1 - 2months to resumption. I know u don't want any pity party but I'm feeling bad. U r suppose to be my tavellin companion na. Now I hv to start looking for Some1 else *sadface*.

I don't think it's because of the mails. A friend of mine bombarded cic with emails in January, day and night. Infact she was beginning to sound insultive, yet she got her TRV

LOVINA1245:
its official. these VO's can be incompetent @ times. is it possible to cancel an application and reapply using another route?

Please fill and send a case specific inquiry to accra, since your application has exceeded the normal processing time.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/missions/accra.asp

https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=accra&_ga=1.190153067.1120033618.1392712355

I sent one and I received a mail, but I'm not sure they will address my enquiry since my application is exactly 8 weeks.

tnuola:
Lmao.. Don't cry jor... I'm thanking him for the info.

I know how u feel jare, it will end well.

Thnk u... Definately

berexio1:
1st and 2nd Batch for the day...Like play like play, we don dey read CIC like book

Lool I thought I was the only one studying them o.. Theres 3rd batch too, some receive the mail in d evening 7pm thereabout

tnuola:
Nice one.. Thanks

nice one keee

2grozz:
If you that applied in july 6th need prayers
Then what would cases like ours who did biometrics may 22 need?
Deliverance abi?
Guy.....be still!

Lool.. It's like u are for comedy today.

2grozz:
Ok....

So at this point in time I am done trying to deduce what the ish is going on.
Am done trying to understand why some who applied later and getting theirs faster than others....
Tired to thinking for God....
Jesus take the wheels.....

EXACTLY!!

berexio1:
From the day u applied u start counting..Thank you for ur patience comes when ur app is 1 month old...So for me that applied 7th May, I app clicked 2 months old(8weeks today). By tomorrow am in the 9th week

That's 8weeks nd 4 days.. Infact whichever way they choose to count, we just need positive responses ASAP

hayqinsbFX:
I don't want to talk much about onlne route..

But if you applied via paper andure a mastersor PhD student...U sure wud have bn answered by now

Let some more elements come in so we ll b more sure in our statistics.....

When I saw Bobola86, valeriann, IyaEjima and co chopping TRV within one week in February through online route...I was impressed! Lool I'm no longer impressed oo..

dbabba:
Please what do you suggest we do now cos the thing don tire me

I wish I knew what to suggest.. Stl hoping for ds week, there are some non-refundable payments I have to make soon.
I don't think we can send email yet, I don't understand how @berexio1 is counting. Sir are you counting from the day u submitted or you are counting the day u got 'thanks fr your patience' as 4th week??

darefestus:
Have you thought about Taking your mind off it?

Another Jega in the house. I pray ooo!! Na so e easy??

dbabba:
House, I think this is getting abnormal, even those who submitted online long after some of us have gotten their response while my own application will be 8 weeks tomorrow. Please I need the contact (email) of the embassy so I can lay my complaints. I really plan to bombard them tomorrow if I don't get anything.

Or is it that they are not responding to the college applicants cos I notice most who have gotten theirs after my submission were university students?

I dnt think it's because you're a college applicant, mine will also be 8weeks tomorrow and I'm for Masters. Check the list, University applicants are also experiencing same. Sighs

berexio1:
Hope that ur hector never shoot online VO oo..Someone needs to ressurrect him cos I need that medical mail just about now..

Lool Exactly! @richcasey Hector shouldn't shoot oo!
I'm tempted to say break their legs tho..
