The EAGLE has landed. I got my stamped passport delivered to me by DHL this morning.

I wish every one waiting a posiive decision soon.

Congratulations ooo...send our Xmas palliative o

If you have the money, I will advise that you get another passport.
So you won't have to worry about delays in your application and all.
But if you don't have the cash, well you can proceed with your application.
Since your permit is most likely to come out before the passport expires.
The bolded is my top recommendation though.

maestro09:
Good day everyone,

I am planning on applying for a study permit next year for a program that starts in September.

My International Passport expires December next year.

My question is if I go ahead to use this passport, will it be an issue when I apply for Visa?

Morning all,
Please a friend will be travelling to the UK via Air France (KLM), is there any chance that someone here knows if he will be needing a covid19 test?
Thanks.

Wait to go bro.
January ain't that bad too. I believe they will get back to you by then.
When is your program starting?

Uzomachukwu:
I've heard that a million times, bro. It surely sounds like great advice for everyone having a huge anxiety over their application. I wouldn't be going for it though, not yet anyway. If by January I've not heard anything from then, well, I'll have to request for my GCMS notes. But for now, I'll wait—just a little while longer. The year is as good as spent!

The thread is now more than 700. Is it not time to close it and create PART 18?

Order your GCMS bro, I am currently on this boat. I applied May 10, after medical and all, nothing till now. background check and eligibility still ongoing.
GCMS says I have been approved. So yeah, GCMS will give you some kind of assurance and rest of mind (-ish).

Uzomachukwu:
So IRCC finally updated my medical today on GCKey (there was no email notification). A part of me already feels like I've secured my study permit & visa approval; for me, the medical was the major fear.

Applied on June 16,
Upfront medical on Sept 01,
Biometrics collection on Sept 08,
Eligibility review and background check still ongoing August,
No other update from IRCC since after biometrics was updated on Sept 8
Medical updated today — passed!

Waiting for further updates: correspondence letter and hopefully PPR!

ohk no wahala.
We move!!
All the best man.

Blavkmaann:

Blavkmaann:

Yeso I have been approved (based on my GCMS note) but I am yet to get BVL, PPR, etc

Dee4Doyinsola:
Please do I need a transit Visa to go through Germany? Please any suggestion of flight for next week? I'm going to Halifax

HAHAHHAHAHA. NO BE SMAL THING OOO! ABEG KEEP SEAT FOR ME, I DE COME.

We are learning oooo. Infact my eyes have seen enough.
Lagos will be a no no when I finally get my PPR.

awys:
Those coming behind for passport submission hope you all are learning lessons ooo avoid Lagos VFS as much as you can Biko we are tired of reading complaints about Lagos VFS all timeline na so so Lagos VFS.If you can spend up to passport submission you can close eye and send your passport to better VfS Mbok!!! Na the last stage so just spend to get better services.God will help us all.It will end in praise!!!!

Did anybody here send his/her passport to any VAC abroad?
cos with the way VFS is doing down here in 9ja, this might be the best thing to do now ooo.
What do you guys think?

For those of us that have crossed to BVL, PPR and co levels, let's not forget the newbies in the house. I can see that we are not helping them enough with their requests.
Please let's continue to support them so they can progress to our stage too.

As for the newbies here, before you ask any question, I will advise that you take the time out to read the thread from the very first page, you'd see that before you even get to this page, you'll notice that you already have the answers to most of your questions.

Cheers!

Here you go mate.

Pereria:
PLEASE CAN YOU SHARE THE CONSENT FORM?
AND HOW MUCH DID YOU PAY?

Mehhhhnnn..with what I am seeing here, its as if no VFS in 9ja is reliable ooo.
Maybe it's best to send our passport to Germany or Dubai sef.

Mine was supposed to start this Sept 2020. But I had to defer to Sept 2021 (my program does not have winter/spring start date). As per my application, I am waiting for my BVL/PPR {My GCMS shows that my SP has already been approved}.

HorlarJP:
Amen o, it must surely end in praise and my program is starting by January 6 and yours and what stage is your application?

But I doubt if my application will be sorted by then because some September applicants here are still told to be patient... Geez

No qualms. It will end in praise. Sit tight. When is your program supposed to start?

HorlarJP:
I have done my biometrics since 3 weeks ago so waiting for a medical request or PPR or just anything geez

Okyay cool. whats the stage of your SP app?

HorlarJP:
I am going to cape Breton Nova Scotia too

Blavkmaann:
Testimony time

I DIDNT LOG INTO MY CIC PAGE TODAY NOT CHECK MY MAIL


GUESS WHAT

I DIDN’T DIE!!!

Invite us for the party oooo...E don tey wey I chop party jollof

Blavkmaann:
That money you want to pay, save it you will need it.

Let me tell you how I applied..... after getting the admission, I went to that VFS office and met a bunch of hoodlums at the gate, because I drove and carry ear bud abi what’s that rubbish, they just assume I was a big big boy, they took me to one office and started listing Bill for me... the one that off me was, form filling 70k.... he say if u don’t have POF, I shu not worry he will get for me....... mstchew, I left there, bought one Nice Flirt Vodka and coke, went to my house, on gen, on light, on laptop, High wel well, then open Canada.ca ..... Omo I follow my mind and here we are today

It’s ending in legit praise! I’ll soon make a YouTube video about the whole process, let me collect my passport next week..


Ehen, I’m doing party.... stamped Canada passport party..... coming soon..... God no go shame us

No oo...I am going to Dalhousie Univ {Nova Scotia}. How about you?

Kimkalash:
You re going to Memorial?

True. More reason why I am going to the province. Na PPR we de wait for laidis ooo!!

Frankrobbn1:
This is because their tuition fees are cheaper and the Atlantic province is the easiest place to secure your PR without stress. The visa officers are fully aware of this, that's why prospective international students find it very challenging getting approval with some of the schools there and only a few are granted visa.


It will end in praise

Go ahead please. They are both different applications and IRCC will not hold anything against you as they allow individuals with dual intent. So you will be judged solely as a student when you apply for SP.

Gbola007:
Good evening gurus in the house, can someone who has applied for express entry and didn't qualify apply for student visa? What are the chances of getting the student visa considering he has applied for express entry before.

Have you done the biometrics, if yes, then I should take at least 5hours or so. Except there are some glitches at the VAC,

Sugarbunny94:
Una well done o!

Let me rephrase my question.

How long does it take for biometrics to change from " your action is required"

Don't scroll and pass o, answer my question bikonu.

Mine arrived in less than 35days. A friend in CAD did it for me ($5)

Uzomachukwu:
Count from when the application was completed, not when it was submitted. Applying for GCMS note, which will take another 2 months to arrive, isn't the way to go for now.

Hello,
When is your class supposed to start?
I will advise that you order your GCMS note. I applied since May 10, eligibility and background still ongoing on my portal up till now. But the GCMS note showed that my application has already been approved.
P.S Medical has been passed though
P.S.S I also deferred to Fall 2021 (maybe that's why they are not concerned cos they know I still have time).

Uzomachukwu:
Those guys? Their delay seems to be legendary.

I applied June 16,
Upfront medicals Sept 1,
Biometrics Sept 8,
Eligibility and Background checks still ongoing,
No AIP,
No BVL,
No update about my medical.

I've contacted them thrice in the past 1 month. They responded only once, two days ago, saying:

Kimkalash:
