My question is do we send the new and old passport for stamping or inform IRCC first about the new passport.

just send the new passport so far it the same information, ircc will see the previous one already expire but when did your sister applied or she applied visa with an expire passport or how??

10m after you have your visa? Yes

which type visa ,can you educate us more ??

With a budget of 10 million Naira (approximately 9,000 CAD), unless you are coming to Canada with Express Entry or a Provincial Nomination as a Permanent Resident, your options are limited to a visitor visa. Securing a visitor visa is becoming increasingly difficult due to the high number of asylum seekers who misuse it. A visitor visa provides limited opportunities in Canada, aside from the possibility of claiming asylum. Acquiring a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) for a work visa is both challenging and expensive . It's important to note that while the number of asylum claims is on the rise, the majority are likely to be rejected, resulting in deportation orders. Many Nigerians with unsuccessful asylum claims choose to keep their struggles private, but it's crucial to understand that seeking asylum is not a simple path. The refusal rate for asylum claims is climbing, as the system often views them as fraudulent and a burden on the Canadian government, which could influence the upcoming election. Even with a work permit, finding employment in Canada can be difficult. Only a few asylum seekers manage to find full-time employment, and when claims are unsuccessful, the appeal process is not only expensive but also offers no certainty of a favourable outcome. With reforms on the horizon, the appeal process is expected to become even more stringent. It would be unfortunate to invest 10 million Naira only to be faced with deportation proceedings two years later. Therefore, it is advisable not to pay any agent to process your visitor visa, as the current refusal rate is very high. Exercise caution and plan your steps carefully.

Coming to Canada on visitor visa to stay is a huge gambling that could go wrong AND if anybody guarantee you success in asylum or say otherwise it just a scam and misinformation !

Dauphine:
Not just PEI, even people in Brampton. But as I observed Indians are the ones protesting and asking for extended stay. And I totally agree with you, there are no guarantees

Nigerians do not typically protest, but many Nigerian students in Canada are now seeking asylum due to the lack of a clear route to permanent residency and their inability to pay the high tuition fees

You are right. It’s not compulsory to share. I only shared because timelines shared by others were a big source of encouragement to me and I was only looking to encourage others.

Certainly, sharing information is not obligatory, but it is morally reprehensible to spread fabricated tales of success that favor deceitful visa agents and disadvantage innocent applicants. You clearly stated that your application was "can plus," and we all understand English. Additionally, I work in the oil and gas company sector too and the company never guarantee anyone's return unless it is an official assignment for visa application. they only issue a letter of identification that includes one's work and position. Nevertheless, people on social media should be vigilant about the veracity of the information they believe. This is because I have observed an agent using a screenshot of your testimony today to falsely encourage their clients with a purported recent success story of obtaining a Canadian visa without travel history and after a U.S. visa denial, even though many have been rejected.

the sudden increase in approval rates for visitors visa last year seemed to coincide with the closure of roxham road crossing from USA to Canada. They knew what they were doing.

There are people benefiting from the asylum claims industry like hotels, lawyers ( who charge as much as 1k dollars to fill form) , charities etc. these people are highly connected with government and politicians. 😁

The lawyer said the same thing. But in the end, the asylum seeker is left at the mercy of the lawyer and the court system after hearing fails because appeals are paid out of pocket. As a result, the majority will be deported since very few applications will be approved, especially with the upcoming reforms likely proposing a faster deportation process with the federal election ahead.

Sadly, there are people who had the exact same profile as that applicant, with all the travel history, a lot of dollar pof and marriage ties, but who still went to Canada to claim asylum. It's terrible. I saw a couple last week who were doing very well in Nigeria with the wife working at Glo earning well, but who still claimed asylum on landing. There was one too working at 7up. These are the people who have made getting a Canadian visit visa hard for people like this applicant. The VOs don't believe Nigerians anymore.

You are right because an old classmate I recently reconnected with, who is now a lawyer in Canada, told me that the recent surge in refusal rates for visitor visas has been attributed to the persistent abuse of this stream by individuals. It is concerning to note that as many as 8 out of 10 Nigerians who obtain a visitor visa end up making fake asylum claims as homosexuals, which understandably results in a high refusal rate. This trend has also created complexities in the asylum process and contributed to an increase in rejections at asylum case hearings and surely Canada planning some reform soon to his asylum process just like UK, Ireland and Germany

Good morning everyone. Please if you submitted your application last November or earlier and you've not heard from the IRCC till now, kindly send them a mail, asking for your application's update. My technician who will be travelling with me for a training just received his PPR this morning. I wish all those waiting best of luck and divine favour in the sight of VOs handling their apps.

By the way,DIY is the best way. I've read a moniker's message, which looks like a scam to me. I needn't respond because some peeps have done that already. STOP PATRONISING AGENTS!!!

The main issue is that 99% of Nigerians who use an agent initially intend to misuse their tourist visa by overstaying or seeking asylum or thinking it easy to settle in Canada with a tourist visa . This is simply the reality and fact of the matter. I cannot comprehend why a rational person would pay over 3 million just to apply for a visa to visit a location.

Hello gurus in the house good day to you all, please I’m confused I received a letter of approval without going for biometrics yet just receive PPR today 17th and my agent tell me I will do everything together when I’m going to drop my passport, please 🙏 is it possible or something like that do happen
