CONFIRMED. I travel via BA to Toronto in December 2021 with a 3 hour layover at Heathrow

Thanks @tradesummoore

Would I be able to get into the airport after going out from there to a hotel?

Best option is to check into a nearby hotel if you have the funds, otherwise you look out for a good part of the airport and spend away the time.[/quote]

Really? I was informed by my travel agent that a transit visa is required to transit via UK.
Pls confirm that you have gone through this route before without a UK Visa especially as I see very good air ticket deals on BA Airline.
Thanks

TradeSunMoore:
With a Canada visa you do not require a UK visa to transit through Heathrow.

Avoid US airlines and BA if you don't have US and UK Visas
Egypt Air, Lufthansa, KLM, Ethiopia Airline are some of your options

Ilovemom:
Good day everyone , I'm trying to book a flight for my session that resumes sept 6th, but the flights I'm seeing requires US transit , Egypt air and others says no flight available for the time frame , please what do i do?

Hello NL Family, pls I have 15 hours layover at Montreal. The airline - Lufthanza said they don't have any complimentary hotel arrangement. Pls suggest to me what I can do during this layover especially as it will be night.

Hello Naira Land Family
Pls do I need transit visa if I want to use Bristish Airways to move from Lagos to Canada via London?

I was not vaccinated as at when I did my medical. I passed as well.
However, on what Canada expects from nternational travellers arriving Canada. Read this
https://travel.gc.ca/travel-covid/travel-restrictions/covid-vaccinated-travellers-entering-canada

Chubbyface:
Must one be vaccinated to enter Canada, I am asking because I got a medical request for me and my family(already booked). Just want to gather more info.

Yes, there is a lot of prospect with Business Analytics.
Remember there is a difference between Business Analytics and Business Analysis...just so that you dont use both words interchangeable in your SOP.

The aim of business analytics is data and reporting—examining past business performance and forecasting future business performance. On the other hand, the business analysis focuses on functions and processes— determining business requirements and suggesting solutions.

teebullion1:
Gurus please I need your input.

I have pgd in Business Administration and I have experience in sales/marketing. Got admission to Cambrian for Business Analytics.
Are they in anyway related and Is it good enough for study/career progression if write in my SOP that I intend to start my own business or I should reapply for International Business Management.

Though I prefer Business Analytics because it has better prospects, I am trying to play safe.

Please advise ejor

I received medical request for my kids. They went for the Medical but I didn't upload any document back to the portal. It was updated to passed after 10 days

Electroweb:
Hello Everyone,
I received a medical request for my son, his last medical is over a year. For those that got medical request in the past, did you see a place to upload the medical result or is it the one sent from IOM to IRCC that IRCC will look at and update your application status?

Thanks

Congratulations
Am going to UNB this fall

Hello House
I made a Family Application: - Study Visa for me(MSc) and my 2 children and Visitor Visa for my hubby. We submitted on 6th April, 2022. My hubby and I got request for biometrics same day but were only able to do biometrics on 13th April. My husband got his Passport Request on 19th April, 2022. My kids got medical request the same 19th April while the status of my medical changed to 'we are reviewing your medical results' since I did upfront medical on the same 19th April. My children did medical on 20th April; their medical was updated to passed on the 30th of April while mine was updated to passed on 6th May, 2022. At first, I was delaying sending my husband's passport because I kept hoping our visa approval would come soon. I had to send it in so that the 30 days will not expire. My people, my husband's passport has journeyed to Abuja and back to Lagos with his visa in place yet we re still waiting. My people, any suggestions or advice on what to do next?

Pls any response to this?�

CentennialGuy:
It won't. You correctly noted that they are separate application. Express entry profile is just a profile anyway. Not a visa application.

Below is what is at the bottom of my express entry profile. I didn't even talk about it in my LOE. My passport stamped with my study visa is currently chilling where I kept it. So you are good.

Thank you so much for this response as I have the same situation.

Dear Sir/Madam


My name is......a study permit applicant from Nigeria with application number........ and UCI number...........


I submitted my study permit application via the new IRCC application portal on....... and my upfront medical was updated to passed on....... However, no other updates has been posted on my portal or mail since then till now, which is a very long time.


I am well aware that your office is inundated with large volume of applications that may exceed your capacity to process all within your quoted processing time. However, I am pleading for a speedy resolution of my application. I have found it very difficult focusing on my daily activities here since the beginning of the year as all my plans for the year are tied to my study plan.

I humbly plead that you do your best to conclude the processing of my application as soon as possible to enable me take more definite steps with regards to my study plans for the year and regain my mental health and psychological balance.


Thank you so much for your efforts so far in working on my application, as I look forward to your prompt and positive decision/feedback on my application.


Best regards

Pls to which email were you sending to?

Bigdaddy001:
Hey guys, my passport got missing recently, if I apply for a new one will I be given a new passport number?

Yes

Kuze1:
Hello house, I discovered this after I had submitted. My situation is I have a previous Masters in project management from the UK; this was in 2009. I have applied for a Masters in the same course but with a data analytics direction in Canada. The primary reason I’m going this route is because my 1st child is presently in senior secondary school and I want to prepare for when she will be going to University so that the huge university fees can be reduced for herself and her siblings. I’ve been to Canada before on a visiting visa as I have an older sibling who is a medical doctor and a Canadian citizen. I also indicated that I would be living with her for the duration of my 2-year course.

I tried express entry but age is no longer on my side as I am 43. I stated in my application that my husband is my home tie as he will remain in Nigeria for the duration of my studies; the plan is to apply for him and the children after I receive mine. I got an Mpower loan to support my application for my entire school fees and have about N10m of my own money as I indicated that I am self sponsored.

I have been in my present job for a 10years period and provided supporting documents from my office and details of property owned by my spouse. I applied via the new portal. I’m just a bit apprehensive looking through the previous posts and wondering what my chances are

Pls was your express entry still active when you applied for study permit.

Hello People, pls how long after medical is updated as passed does one get passport request from IRCC?
