Lani84:
Hello friends,

I hope you are all doing well. My sister that had the issue of refused deferral with the University of Calgary got her PPR on the 14th. We took a gamble and started online, since all her courses had moved online anyway because of the Delta variant crisis in Alberta. Here is her timeline:

Application date: May 21 2021
Biometrics Request: May 22 2021
Biometrics done: May 25 2021
Medicals passed: May 24 2021
PPR: September 14 2021

Submitted Admission letter, proof of full tuition and accommodation payment, SOP, copies of short course certifications done and sponsorship letter from our dad.

Since she has paid accommodation for one year (of a 2 year course) and full tuition, how much should she have to show at the point of entry as proof of funds, and how can she show it? The sponsorship letter said that our dad will be sending her upkeep monthly.

My other sister is a May 15th applicant, still waiting. May PPR come to her and all of us waiting, amen.

Thank you all in advance!

Congratulations

I want to thank you all for the support y’all dish out here, honestly i come here every hour for support cos i was almost losing it! My application is the least packaged I’ve seen in a while but GRACE found me!

To everyone still waiting! Your PPR is already on its way to you! Amen!!! Your application doesn’t have to be perfect. God bless

Indeed, GRACE found you for his Grace is sufficient for us all.

Congrats to you Godsfave and to you expecting yours.

How I sent my Passport to Abuja.

I did my Biometrics in Lagos but I sent my passport to Abuja,
So I had to pay a transmission fee of NGN 8,920 to this account
CANADA LOGISTIC COLLECTION ACCOUNT (a/c no 0065165839) sterling bank.

I bought a fresh brown envelope and added the following documents, so follow:

- Your International Passport itself (That your passport !!)

- Print only 1 copy of the transmission fee payment receipt and put in your envelope

- 2 copies of your passport data page (I printed it in colored copy)

- Those stapled papers that was given to you after the completion of your Biometrics (put them as it is [original copy] not the photocopy)

- The PPR letter (1 copy)

- 2 copies of the Consent form (I filled and signed the second page only) . Download the consent from here: https://www.vfsglobal.ca/canada/dominicanrepublic/pdf/Consent-Form-TTS-English.pdf


- A plain sheet of paper where you can write your address and phone number (this is not really needed though, but I added it)
NOTE: I paid for 2 ways Courier at DHL and insured it to and fro

2 courier means: As I am sending my passport to Abuja, I want Abuja to send back my STAMPED passport to the address I stated on the Courier

Thanks again bro.
The attached is the requirement given to me via mail by IRCC. For the 2 copies of consent form, it is not stated. Do you think I should go ahead to add that?

Also for the stapled papers during biometrics, not stated do you think I will need it?

NB: I actually applied under Family class but I always stay to get info here so please advise accordingly.

Thank you and thanks to everybody contributing massively to this thread.

JDforeal:
Pay the transmission fee to
Canada Logistics Collection Account
Sterling Bank Plc
0065165839

Disclaimer: please confirm the account details before any transaction.

Thanks for this bro. After payment, how do I inform them it was paid? Do I send along evidence of payment or is there a place to upload it?

This is urgent please I want to do it this afternoon

Thanks guys

gracedson:
Send to Abuja, you cannot go there in person right now, Send via DHL.

Thank you very much for the reply. How do I pay the transmission fee.

Please anybody here who has an idea should respond.

Thanks

JDforeal:
Everyone says Abuja is faster, I used Abuja and got my passport in less than a week

Transmission fees I paid last week Tuesday was 8,920

Okay thanks bro. I will use same route.
How do u pay the transmission fee? I want to send mine this morning

Thank You

Eggovic:
Thanks Bro.
I haven't submitted my passport as no request has been made for it yet

All the best bro.

badmanjo:
Be calm, it took a friend 2 weeks through Lagos to get hers back .. I just sent mine also through Lagos DHL today.. tho I didn't pay transmission fee only DHL fee. What were the documents u included in urs

@badmanjo please how much is the transmission fee?
Do u advise I use Abuja route for stamping even though I reside in Lagos?

gracedson:
Just calm down, let’s see how tomorrow goes. Abuja VFS even called me sef, there have been lot of comments on this forum that Lagos is not as fast as Abuja.

Please would you advise I send mine to Abuja or Lagos. I reside in Lagos though but I would prefer the fastest route.
Do I have the option of going to their office to submit it if I want to use Lagos

Hello everybody

Kindly advice on means of delivering passport to VFS for visa stamp. I want to know if I can go in person or use courier.

Your response is highly appreciated.

Greetings house.
Any updates? It would be nice to keep this thread going to help future applicants, what do you think?

I support this motion

Oluolad86:
please continue praying for me for perfect healing. Thanks

I declear Rom 8:11 upon you today. His banner is over you. Congratulations your health is restored.

MissMa01:
Hello , Canada recommends Pfizer, Moderna,AZ and JnJ.
I’ll recommend you visit cic website and read the steps you need to take before arrival.
In addition, unless you are taking JnJ single shot, you can’t do both in three weeks.
Besides, do you have the actual PPR email or passport stamped with COPR issued? Not to be a buzz kill but with the way things are moving, you will need more than three weeks for all these to be done or is your application under spousal sponsorship?

Thank you @MissMa01 for the head on.
I will start by saying yes it is spousal sponsorship.
No PPR email yet.
For the JnJ single shot, is it readily available here in Nigeria as it seems to be the fastest since it is a single shot.

Thanks for helping out

Ikepooni:
Please What’s your AOR(when did you submit your application) and visa office?

That should be Jan 2020.
It's been far over 1year

Onedimple:
Pre-arrival programs are to help you settle in well when you come. I did that with CCIS before I got here. They link you up with resources that might be useful to you as a newcomer.
I would advice you get your jabs before coming because it is somehow being enforced now by the government and you may not be able to travel if you have not been vaccinated.

Appreciate you bro.
I really want to do the pre arrival stuff but the link ain't opening. What would you suggest I do?

About vaccination, I would love to know the accepted ones in CA b4 I take any here in 9ja. Can I take both jabs in 3weeks?

I am at your DM sir

Onedimple:
It is very positive that your PR has been approved and it may look like they are still reviewing when you check on the portal.
Congratulations anyways.

Thank you bro.
The pre arrival stuff, what is it really about? Is it compulsory to register?

I haven't taken any Jab of the vaccine yet, do u think that will cause a possible delay when PPR is finally out?

Lagbaja88:
you only qualify for pre arrival when you get the PR. This does not look like an ircc email biko. Processing does not mean one will get the pr na

This is what I got on their site as well (see attached screenshot)
Probably they have approved the PR.

Igethope:
Is this from IRCC? Pls double check o .

Yes bro.
I got it and a medical request same day.
NB: I had my medical examination last year March. Since it's over 1year, I guess that is why I got another request.

Hello everybody,

Happy to be here... actually didn't know a thread like dis exists. I have read thru a few write up.


I have been on the waiting list to relocate on a PR to Canada but it's been like forever.

I got this beautiful mail which I will love the Gurus to tell me one or two things about it. (Esp that prearrival services part)
