Thanks so much for your response but his biometrics would expire 2031

Just so surprised on his case though

Ashirioluwa:
Whether he travels or not, that cannot be used against him. Let him go ahead to apply.

IRCC uses biometric validity and passport expiration dates when issuing visas, but biometric validity comes first.

They will not issue a visa beyond the biometric validity date or passport expiration date.

If biometrics on file expire in 7 months and passports expire in 10 years, the applicant will only get a 7-month visa unless the applicant extends the biometric by paying $85 and then goes for a new biometrics again at VFS.

To receive a 10-year visa, both biometrics and the passport must be valid for 10 years.

If biometrics on file are valid for 10 years and passport valid for 2 years, the applicant will only get a 2-year visa.

Hi guys, so my brother was granted 6 months visit visa last year even though his passport expires till 2027. They still gave him 6 months,, well that's not even the issue. He was unable to travel within that 6 months given so it expired.

Now he wants to apply again but he's worried if he'll be granted the visa since he didn't travel with the last one issued.

Please what's your suggestion on his issue?

Those on Tourist,,, not necessarily you send everything so it won't be like word for word. Pick out the part you need.

Deronke1:
Dear Visa Officer,

I am writing to you today with a heavy heart, as I find myself caught in an overwhelming state of anticipation and uncertainty. My purpose in reaching out to you is to express my deep concern regarding the delayed decision on my tourist visa application.

To begin, let me emphasize that my intentions of visiting Canada are solely for the purpose of experiencing the natural beauty, rich culture, and warm hospitality that your esteemed country is renowned for. It has been a lifelong dream of mine to set foot on Canadian soil and immerse myself in the breathtaking landscapes and diverse communities that make up this magnificent nation.

Regrettably, my dreams have been put on hold as I continue to anxiously await a decision on my visa application. I submitted my application with the utmost sincerity, ensuring that every document and requirement was fulfilled to the best of my ability. Since then, every passing day has brought a mixture of hope and anxiety, as I monitor my email inbox for any updates.

While I understand that the visa process involves thorough scrutiny and assessment, the prolonged delay in my case has caused significant distress and frustration. The uncertainty has taken a toll on my emotional well-being, causing sleepless nights and constant worry. Every day that goes by without a decision pushes me further into a state of despair.

I implore you to kindly consider the impact of this prolonged delay on my plans and emotional state. My scheduled departure date is swiftly approaching, and I find myself torn between maintaining hope and the practical necessity of making alternative arrangements. My heart yearns for an opportunity to explore the wonders of Canada, to create cherished memories, and to build bridges of friendship and understanding between our countries.

I understand that your office receives an overwhelming number of visa applications each day, and I truly appreciate the dedication and hard work put forth by the visa officers. However, I humbly request your compassion and empathy in expediting the decision on my application. I have already invested a significant amount of time, effort, and resources into planning this trip, and any further delay would not only result in the loss of these investments but also shatter my dreams of experiencing the magnificence of Canada firsthand.

In closing, I appeal to your compassion and understanding, praying that you can find it in your heart to prioritize my application and provide me with the opportunity to fulfill my dream of visiting Canada. Your timely decision would not only bring immense joy to my life but also strengthen the bonds between our nations and foster cultural exchange.

Thank you for taking the time to read my heartfelt appeal. I eagerly await your favorable response and hope to receive the long-awaited news of a positive decision on my tourist visa application.

With sincere gratitude and unwavering hope,

TravelRe: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Deronke1: 3:48pm On May 19, 2023
Dear Visa Officer,

I hope this email finds you in good health. I am writing to you today with a heavy heart and deep concern regarding the delay in the approval of my visa application. I have recently learned that I am on the verge of missing one of the most significant and joyous events in my life—my elder brother's wedding.

For me, family has always been an anchor of love and support, and my brother holds a special place in my heart. Being my elder brother , he has been my role model, guiding me through life's challenges and providing unwavering encouragement. We have shared countless memories together. However, due to the unforeseen delays in the visa approval process, I fear I will be absent from his wedding day, an occasion that holds immense sentimental value for both of us.

The thought of missing this momentous occasion fills me with immense sadness and regret. My brother's wedding is not just a celebration of love and unity; it is a testament to our family's bond and the values we hold dear. It is a gathering of loved ones, an opportunity for me to witness the union of two souls and support my brother as he embarks on this new chapter of his life. The prospect of not being able to be there physically, to share in his joy, and to convey my heartfelt congratulations is incredibly disheartening.

As I write this email, tears stream down my face, realizing that I may not witness the exchange of vows, the tears of happiness, and the laughter shared among family and friends. The absence of my presence would not only affect me but would cast a shadow of melancholy upon my brother's special day as well. He has expressed his profound disappointment and his longing for my support, making my absence all the more painful.

I implore you, dear Visa Officer, to understand the gravity of my situation and the immense emotional distress this delay has caused. I have followed every step of the visa application process diligently, submitted all the required documents, and adhered to the regulations with utmost sincerity. I understand that visa processing involves meticulous scrutiny, but I kindly request you to consider expediting my application so that I can be present for my brother's wedding. My presence would not only be a source of comfort to my family but would also enable me to contribute to the joyous atmosphere that surrounds this significant occasion.

I assure you that I am fully committed to complying with all visa regulations, and I will respect the stipulated time frame for my visit. I understand the importance of adhering to immigration rules and the trust placed in me as an applicant. I am ready to provide any additional information or documentation you may require to expedite the process. Please understand the urgency of my situation and the impact it has on my family's happiness.

I appeal to your compassion and understanding, hoping that you will empathize with my circumstances and take them into consideration. Your timely approval of my visa application would not only fulfill a dream of being present at my brother's wedding, but it would also demonstrate the power of compassion and empathy within the visa application process.

Thank you for your attention, and I eagerly await a positive response from your esteemed office. May your decision bring solace to my distressed heart and help restore the joy that is slowly fading away.

Yours sincerely,

[Name]

The worst thing you can tell someone who is agitated is to "calm down" or "Relax" So i can understand from the person's point of view too.
Alexino360:
It's like comprehension is your problem, no one is being judgemental here. If can't take simple words of encouragement then " raise a webform " like others are doing, besides you aren't the only one in 2021 who hasn't gotten a response from IRCC...we all are.

" This is a public forum and I'm allowed to voice my opinion " as well
TravelRe: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Deronke1: 7:15am On Apr 20, 2023
Unlike the general pattern here of biometrics completed, eligibility completed before background check,,,,

I saw mine as biometrics completed, background check completed and eligibility has not started.

I checked using the tracker.

Is it something to be worried about?
TravelRe: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Deronke1: 8:00am On Jan 23, 2023
Since you said he has been doing it and getting it done,, then what else are you looking for again? Or are you doubting?
Anyways, doing things fraudulently is never the best. How can you even pray about it, that God should help you in the process? You can't pray because it wasn't Genuine.

I'm not castigating you, I'm just saying the clear fact. It's because of things like this that genuine people application take long because they need to check and check if its actually genuine.

Moreso, nairaland is a popular platform Globally. Don't be surprised the VO knows this platform and sometimes check. Imagine the VO reading this, how do you think he would take our applications?? Rhetorical question though.

Lastly, that he has been doing it, doesn't mean it is right. One day he would exposed and by God's Grace, i pray not with your application.

I wish you the very best in your application,
Shalom!
