Please be fine. Sending you hugs

PPR

Sowp, sp, and vv for my family. I’m an intl student

Applied 15th march
Upfront medical updates 20th march
Biometrics 22nd march
ADR March 24 (my proof of income/pof) as I stated that I already found a job

Then the wait. The ADR was uploaded but wasn’t reviewed

I sent emails, web form, etc to no success. Mailed the MP and she suggested I wait since my application hasn’t passed the processing time.

I would wake up at 3:15am (9:15 Nairobi time) to send them emails every day for 3 days. The same copy and paste email (very emotional).

The 3rd day of sending emails - APRIL 22, ADR was reviewed. The next day, PPR. Thank God!

Educhopper:
Yes I think you should relax and wish for the best. You have done your part.
In my case of TRV application, my eligibility only changed when there was a decision on my passport request and subsequent collection.
Goodluck!

Good news! They have been approved.

What!??

Bobomaigida:


I think you should relax, they will issue decisions on all pending applications same day, I suspect the VO has not returned to the application to finalize it bearing in mind that he/she has done the major part on the application. SO just be hopeful. It will end in good news.

Amen, I pray so.
Thank you very much

Hello everyone, I am a bit worried.

I am a masters degree student. I applied for sowp for my spouse and sp and vv for my kids using spouses’ account. On the 24th of march, eligibility review started and I received a message to provide my own pof, and was given 7 days to provide it. I was told that the sowp application will be placed on hold till I provide it. I uploaded the required document on the 26th of March.

Pls note that I provided bank statements of spouse containing more than required Pof, but mine was requested alongside.

Ever since I uploaded the doc requested, it’s stuck at “we are currently reviewing your eligibility “, and the section for the additional document reads “the documents requested have been uploaded”

It’s beginning to look like my family application is still on hold, as they have not started reviewing the additional document. It’s been 2 weeks since I uploaded it. I have also sent countless web forms and emails to no avail.


Should I really be worried? Medicals completed already, and this eligibility stage is the only incomplete evaluation. It’s been 2.5 weeks since the eligibility review started

immortalcrown:

Okay. Thank you

Hello everyone, I have a question please.

I’m currently in Canada, and want to apply for my husband (sowp) and two kids (study visa and visit visa). However, I’m confused on the total amount in CAD to show as their POF.

I need clarity, please

Nawa oh. Nigeria, what’s happening?

KingAzubuike:
80% people without hands like this na thief dem thief wey dem decide to give them long sleeve as punishment. You don't need to pity them.


True. Most especially the northerners. Not all of them tho. Let's say like 80%. The truth is bitter and that's why I've gotten so many insults so far on this thread. But that's the raw truth.

I’ve come across his page a number of times on TikTok. He was a NEPA official, and was electrocuted whilst fixing light.

His hands were cut off at the hospital as a result of the electrocution.

sainaF:

Not only the text, even the poster is AI generated.

If the school can use AI to generate its advert poster, then how will they deter student from using AI to do their assignment

My point exactly

Text screaming chatGPT

SIXFEETUNDER:
I grew up in foster care, my foster mom beat me so much for no reason that i ended up with a metal leg



I ran away from there



Remembering my past life is nothing but miseries


From foster care to juvenile facility to psych ward that have been my life

OMG! I’m so sorry

Angelfrost:


The real question is why would people spend such high amounts to flee their nations?!!

This right here, is the main question . The word ‘FLEE’

danowena:
Most of them actually understand. Just that you did not make an attempt to try communicating in French. Once you don’t try, they won’t help you. They hate the English. Next time just try speaking a little French and you will see how they will help you. Also next time , use google to interprete it to French then show them (but after you try speaking French). I go to France regularly and that is their way of life.

Next time, I will not even try to leave my zone. My village people tried but God said no 😂

Never knew they hate English. But why??

techgen:


Mehn….madam you get mind o (I salute you), not easy for a married woman to leave her kids behind, even without them saying the final goodbye.

When my own click, all of us go move reach airport, make we cry the cry together😄

Congratulations on your safe arrivals, all the best!!!

😂😂

But I felt ‘‘twas time to face reality. I have to leave them for the better good.

Thanks mama

Stardor:
Congratulations on your safe arrival to canada, I remember you saying you did application yourself, please I'd need guidance in filling some details on my form, on the imm294e form i am applying for a post graduate certificate what options should I select?

I have emailed you pls

OralBoy:


I will try not to go looking for anyone. Lol.

I tried booking but I keep seeing KLM on the Airfrance website and vice versa. Are they combining passengers or something? Also, no transit visa right? My friend suggested to use Lufthansa but the layover is over 6 hours and they arrive Toronto much later in the day.

Airfrance has a shorter layover and they arrive in the afternoon.

Yes, KLM and airfrance are like the same. I booked KLM but flew airfrance.

If you have just one stop over at CDG, you don’t need a transit visa

OralBoy:


Congratulations.

How was the experience on Airfrance because I am contemplating using the airline.

A very nice one. I’ll recommend airfrance…but don’t get lost oh, no one will understand you 😂

Happy new year everyone.
Landing gist

Left Ibadan to Lagos on the morning of December 31st. My kids were still asleep so I kissed them and cried heavily. I was going to really miss them. Lodged in an hotel close to the airport, slept a little, cried again, and finally left for the airport around 5pm with my husband.

We got to the first gate and they didn’t want to allow my husband in. We gave them what they wanted and he was allowed. Same also happened at the entrance.

Agricultural dept and quarantine asked what I had in my bag, they didn’t even allow me say anything before asking me to do end of the year for them. Sorted them and check in started.

I flew airfrance. The official asked for my enrollment letter, admission letter, and tuition receipt (I paid only deposit, showed them the receipt), was cleared to check in. Check in was very fast because I got there early. Collected my boarding pass and went to wait for preboarding at the new terminal. Said goodbye to my husband and proceeded.

Everything went smooth. We had a 30min delay and flight took off at exactly 12:00 on new year. Couldn’t eat their food. Landed in Paris after 5 hours….then something happened….I got lost.

So there was this guy, his family and two other ladies I hooked up with. Whilst waiting for our connecting flight, he decided to go find something to eat. He called his wife after about an hour and said he was lost and was trying to navigate. He called back and said he was at one gate but will need his boarding pass to cross. His wife couldn’t go because of their kids, she begged me to go. I did

Met up with him in less than 3mins, and that was where the wahala started. ‘Twas a one way in, I couldn’t go back. We went round the airport, and asked questions, but no one could understand or reply us well…even the immigration and security officers. Everyone spoke French

After about 3 hours of merry-go-rounding, including preboarding for a flight we didn’t need just so we could go out and connect through another door, took two trains and one bus, we were still lost. In my mind, I was like “my village people don finally catch me”. God so good, my connecting flight was still in 2hrs.

Finally met an official who could understand us a little but couldn’t speak. She snapped our pictures and was able to locate our other group. She kinda linked us up, and all of us connected.

We connected and touched down toronto. I was scared because I hadn’t paid my fees yet. We got there and immigration asked all of us to line up, collected our LOI together, printed our study permit, called our names, and asked us to form another line. There were just 3 CbBSA officers on seat, others were on holidays for the new year.

I already had my study permit at hand, and joined the queue. Got to my turn and was asked if I had meat, I said yes. Asked for the course I was studying, then she stamped my passport, wrote something on it and cleared me to go.

Waited again for my connecting flight to Halifax. Got to Halifax, cleared my boxes, couldn’t change money. Called my flat mate, ordered my taxi and got home.

I pray all of us here will have breath-taking testimonies very soon…in Jesus name

Happy new year everyone

I have a quick question pls. My pof was 14.2m when I applied for visa. For POE POF, do I need to show the updated POF (the one recently increased) or I should show the Pof I applied with

Environmental health science, then focus on environmental sustainability.

Kurukuru:
Hello my people,
For those with recent approvals, Is Abuja Visa Office still issuing Visa Counterfoils?

Yes

Stay in your current job. Insurance can be sometimes hard to sell

Flakky26:
I am about to apply for canada study permit.

which of this link should i use for the application?

A. https://clegc-gckey.gc.ca/j/eng/l?ReqID=s2162801286d39dc3143ab0a6dee01c2ec5e965fe3

OR

B. https://portal-portail.apps.cic.gc.ca/signin?lang=en

You can use any. GCKEY allows for file upload up to 4mb, while the new portal allows only 2mb

Some SOP tips that I used. They might come handy. I got my PPR in 19 days.

First, start with an intro : My name is xxxx, and I am writing in respect to my application for a Canadian study visa to pursue a xxxx at xxxx University.

Write a summary of your personal background. : State your name, spouse n kids (if any), siblings and parents. Please list their full name. You may also want to include the jobs they do.

Summarize your academic background : Please summarize every of your academic qualifications, including short courses, certifications, etc.

Summarize your professional background : Summarize every job experience listed in your cv/resume. Please list volunteering experiences too.

Write the reason for wanting to study course of choice : In this case, you might want to find a connection between your educational and professional experience, and then state it. In my case, I searched online and saw a major issue stated by the fed govt, and the issue was linked to my course of study. I stated this issue, wrote how this course will help mitigate this issue, and in turn, we would have a better Nigeria. I also copied the link to the news on punch website, and inserted it into my SOP.

Reason for studying in Canaaada : Truthfully, there was no university in Nigeria that offered the course I wanted to study, so I stated that. I made utmost research on this.

Finance : Please do a table of your funds in Naira, and then convert it to CAD. List the funds in both Naira and cad. Also list where each fund comes from. Include sponsorship, bank statement, savings, gist deed, property valuations etc

Draw a table for your expenses : Explain how you intend to spend the money (insurance, medicals, bus pass, etc)

Lump sum explanation : Explain every lump sum in details.

List every travel status : if you have ever been refused visa into any country, if you have/have had an express entry status, etc.

Conclusion : You can include your resumption date and appeal for a speedy application consideration. Also state an assurance that you will conduct yourself well, and adhere to the rules and regulations.

Underneath, do a comprehensive list of your supporting documents so that they can understand when checking. Eg

Enclosed documents

LOA
B.sc cert &transcripts
Xxxx certification
Pictures with parents and siblings
Picture at work
House doc etc.

Please be neat, use proper grammar, punctuations and paragraphs.

Proper paragraphs are very important. It makes it easy to read.

SOP shouldn’t bore the reader. 3-4 pages max. You can have less than that. (A friend’s SOP was just about 10 lines and was approved). Font size should be around 9 or 10. Please also make use of an official and professional font type.

Pray oh, pray for grace. If you are tired, you can switch to just singing praises. Remember that the walls of Jericho fell down flat when the children of God were praising the Lord.

Never underestimate the power of praises and thanksgiving.
