Hello gurus Qudkum, JustMellow, Bracha, Austacus, Oluwaseunbd, Frank and anyone who can help.

Please I am having some difficulties in my application uploading my IMM1294e form. I downloaded the form and filled it, saved it and tried uploading it and the response am getting is


"The form could not be submitted because errors were found.
Error: We couldn't upload your file.

Error Description: The version of the document submitted is no longer accepted"

I have tried different browsers even Internet explorer but I still get the same outcome. Please what can I do to fixed this or is there something I am not doing right?

This is a general issue as I have received over 4 to 5 applicants who recently complained to me that they are currently facing difficulty in uploading the IMM1294E (Application Made outside of Canada) through their MyCIC Account after validating and saving the form on their desktop.... Some have taken steps by reporting the issue to the IRCC technical department but all effort proved ineffective. Myself will also play around with it to see if I can proffer a remedy for it. Once that is done, I'll give you a feedback here by earliest tomorrow.

Tlontin:
thanks boss for the wonderful and selfless job you are doing here. It’s only God that can repay you!!!

Thanks for the best wishes and prayers.... Amen to all of them. God bless us all

Tlontin:
My approval story goes thus...

To God be the Glory.. God went before my application.
This is very obvious due to the fact that my application wasn’t solid enough because I was hurrying to apply early.

Thanks Frank. God bless!!! I was ask to and I have done that since last week Monday, however qlife said they sent it to IRCC on the 19th of May when I called them this morning but my portal hasn’t been updated. Is this normal?

It's normal.... Give them some time let say this week. If you don't receive any update on your account. Then, I would advise you a raise a CSE and send across the medical sheet that was given to you after your medical exam at Q-life to kenya, nairobi immigration department. Congratulations as I await the good news

kcosam:
Good morning house,
Please I want to ask a question, I have being curious to know if Ghana visa office still process visa application from Nigeria at all. It has been a while since I hear anyone with a correspondence letter stating Ghana visa office.
All we hear is either Kenya, London, or Lagos.
Please has anyone noticed it?

Ghana (Accra) immigration office are majorly the ones processing Permanent residence applications from Nigeria. They stopped handling study visa applications as at March, 2018. At this moment, all correspondence regarding a study visa application from Nigeria are been processed at Kenya, Nairobi. London visa officer's are still battling with the May,June and July applicants who submitted their applications last year. During the regime of Lagos, they were so compassionate in issuing visas and lucky applicants who applied as at then with complicated issues and less documents were approved.

Tlontin:
Pls house. Will my medical result be updated immediately qlife send to IRCC? I am asking because they said they have but I haven’t seen any update regarding it.

It takes 3-4 working days for your medical result to be finalized and sent to IRCC database. Were you instructed by IRCC to undergo a medical exam? If so, you should receive an update soon on your MyCIC account.

Kenny4real68:

fullofgrace:
Hello house how much will it cost me to get a work permit of Canada

You will require a job offer from a Canadian employer before applying for a work permit. The job offer can be LMIA inclusive or LMIA exempt. Work permit application fee is 155$CAD and a biometrics fees of 85$CAD..... Total = 240$CAD. Please refer your future queries to the relevant visa threads as this window is strictly for study visa. Thanks

Alezie:
Ok thanks, I have read same too but I am in a group of 10 and we all submitted on the same day and we all received the letters, expecting the best but bracing myself for the worst .

Recently, the rate of refusals for study permit is drastically increasing in number. Keep the house posted on the success of your application.

Please frank I would need your help as regards resolving a difficulty as regards tuition fee calculation.

I will respond to your request soon.

Caddy123:
Have you ordered GCMS notes? Many applications from June to August being handled at the London office is still under review. I will advise you get your GCMS notes first before taking decision.
I have read of some you got approval after 14months and also of some who don't denied after 11months. Just get your GCMS notes ok. .

Ordering a GCMS note for an application that has stayed 12 months and still counting has no effect on the application. As a matter of fact, I have been in proximity with a fellow May/June Applicant. If I am not mistaken, the applicant has requested for his CAIPS file for four (4) consecutive times and yet there is no staggering response/update from IRCC pertaining the success rate of the application. More importantly, over my two years and above existence on this reputable platform, we haven't encountered nor have seen any applicant's application that has stayed 14 months as you claimed. The maximum we have seen which was approved at the 12th month in December 2017 was a guy named Abiodunne, aside this moniker there has been none until now. You may want to explain further where you got your information from.

Ancy12:
Hello everyone how are you all doing ,? Am reapplying again after my first refusal and am putting all my documents together but I have a concern pls house I have a land property which is worth 4m and I have the deeds with me but don’t have the survey plan yet based on money nor too dey hand again so I would like to know if I can use the deeds without the survey plan. Thanks house urgent reply is needed

The landed property document you own does it have a LAND C OF O (Certificate of occupancy)?. It's very important to include a survey plan with your application as it further buttresses the fact that you're the bonafide and legal owner of the landed property. Furthermore, it displays the area and dimensions of the said landed property to the visa officer's comprehension. I would suggest you hire a certified surveyor for a survey plan..

My candid advice is that you should leave no stone unturned.

Hello house

Please is there any other means of contacting the CIC. I have been emailing them as regards to my application that will complete 12 months by June 1, no decision has been made on my application yet not even medical request... 12 months its so frustrating. I don’t think there’s anyone here whose application is as old as mine.. if I can sue this CIC honestly I would. I just need a decision at this moment be it positive or negative I don’t care anymore. I need this decision to get back my tuition fee if the outcome is negative. My admission letter has expired and my school will not refund my tuition fee until they see a refusal letter from CIC..I’m tired please I need help.. I have been emailing CIC 3 times a weeks for the last one month no respond..

You have got nothing to be afraid of. Simply request for a withdrawal of your application. You might be lucky to receive an approval or unluckily a refusal as the case maybe. Your temporary resident application has exceeded a permanent resident processing times which is programmed at 6 months.

Hopeful2019:
I applied with an upfront medical

Okay! Chances are you will be approved since you passed the medicals and subsequently received a biometrics validity letter. Be optimistic! In the interim, accept my congratulations!

Hopeful2019:
New Application

Application submitted: March 21
Biometrics done: March 22
Medical Updated to "passed" : May 7
Biometrics Correspondence Letter: May 13

Your application has a higher chance of getting approved. Were you called to undergo a medical exam during the processing of your Visa?

alftdbts:
@frankrobbn1
Bossman please I need your help on resolving a pressing issue before my re-application but I'm unable to message. Could you please send me a message. Thanks

I received your PM, I'll respond at my own pace. Thanks

Anamekele:
Please house my application has passed 9 weeks today. Can I order for gcms note?
Is there any disadvantage or negative implications in doing that?
Please your advice is highly solicited.

When you applied for your Visa what was the normal processing time as at then? Has it exceeded it stipulated time frame? Why order for GCMS note so soon when your application is presently undergoing it's due process? You're better off taking a chill pill and keep yourself busy with other activities while you await a positive response on your application.

Okoriekwe:
Can an upfront be done even after submission of the application online? Thought it could only be done before submission. Would be happy to get clarification. Thanks.

Upfront medicals as defined by IRCC is known to be a medical exam done ahead of time before application submission which requires the applicant to include an E-MEDICAL slip alongside the application package. As at mid-last year applicants who experienced backlogs of cases on their applications began to seek for a remedy in an effort to expedite the processing of their visas. Many opted for upfront medicals whilst, others ordered for their CAIPS file... that was how the origin of medicals after submission started on this thread.

iny7531:
GOOD EVENING GURUS IN THE HOUSE..I SUBMITTED PAPER APPLICATION ON THE 12TH APRIL AND DID BIOMETRICS THE SAME DAY..ALSO BEEN TRYING TO LINK MY APPLICATION ONLINE FOR TWO WEEKS NOW FOLLOWING THE STEP BY STEP GUIDE FROM THIS GREAT PLATFORM BUT TO NO AVAIL. TO RESUME THIS FALL 2019 IN THOMPSON RIVERS UNIVERSITY, BC. IF ANYONE IS FOR FALL 2019 AT TRU pm me

Try linking your application online using your passport details i.e the issuance date and expiration date. DON'T USE PLACE OF BIRTH. Also be well informed that the DLI number begins with a letter O and not a zero (0). Apply this method as soon as you can and let's see how it goes.

Damilolaoluwa:
Good evening house,
Please I am new here.
Could you please assist on how to go about the medical test. Though I applied online on the 12th of May, got an invite for Biometric on 13th and my biometric was captured on the 14th.just wanted to know if I could go for my medical test upfront.

Waiting to hearing from you.

Many thanks.

It's better you wait for IRCC to request for the medicals. This gives you an indication that your application is close to an approval.

Bracha:
Hi Frankrobbn1, could you please explain the parts in bold to me. It sort of contradicts what I know. Do you mean that first applications so not need to submit fingerprints? Aren't fingerprints a part of the biometric identification? Also if they do not submit fingerprints, as a form of biometrics, what then is valid for 10 years?
Thank you.

My bad! That was a typo. , I meant to say if it was the applicant first time of applying for a temporary resident visa to Canada, then he/she is expected to submit their fingerprint at the visa application centre (VAC) and pay the required fees of 85$ prior to application submission. On the basis that it is the second application, then he/she isn't suppose to submit their fingerprints as the previous refused application details including the biometrics is valid until a decade.

Thanks Bracha for calling to my attention!

Austacus:
Oga boss what bout in a situation whereby PA have no travel history and criminal conviction and got refused in background checks?

Could it be in background checks maybe they also distribute the documents to the appropriate department for checks then gather the findings to the primary VO to assess if the PA meets the study requirements
??
Well, sometimes they do eligibility review without updating it in MYCIC account but I've seen some application in this forum that doesn't stay 2 weeks and got refused in background checks

Majority of applicants do pass their background checks, which can be attested from their GCMS NOTE after a visa refusal. It's very rare to see an applicant who failed this criminal inspection. Meanwhile, it's after the background checks by CBSA that the documents will then be sent to the visa officer's GCMS database for a complete review and a decision to be made on the application. In some cases, eligibility review might start without any update on the applicant's MyCIC account, this doesn't insinuates that the applicant failed their criminal checks, somewhat the blame at times goes to the unexpected system glitch which takes time for the update to be uploaded. Above all, there is no blueprint for this visa processing thingy as applicant's cases differs in spite of the fact that we try our best to gather precise details from successful applicant's timeline.

Dedzstar789:
I sent you an email from your Naira land profile. I don’t understand what you mean by your signature as i can’t find anything in your profile. I’m new here so I actually get confused navigating this platform.

I have seen your PM and have responded.

johnsonsegxy:
Clearly understood! Has there been any situation whereby medical request was not asked and visa was granted? From the other Canadian thread i could see so many testimonies like this for people going for tourist visit

I have observed such case scenario nothing more besides twice and this took place as at last year September/October. From that time forward until now, I haven't seen any of such exist.

yinkansola:
Good evening guys.... am about applying for my study permit and my sponsor which happens to be my dad has two accounts,will I have to tender both statements of accounts since there is money in both accounts
Secondly I applied for a post graduate program which fee is around 16,000cad, the school asked me to pay my first semester fee which am about to pay,so my sponsor's account will be left with 3million,will that enough to tender?

Submit the both bank statements in as much as there is funds in both accounts. Unfortunately, 3M is not sufficient enough to cover for your first year tuition and living expenses. Your sponsor (DAD) is expected to have 16,000CAD$ plus additional 10,000CAD$ for your first year living expenses and additional funds left for his dependents and personal welfare.
