Hello guru,
Please who has booked flight with hopper app before. I want to know how to pay with naira denominated card. Thanks.

Hello house.
I got my study permit recently. Please who has travel from Cotonou to Canada before. I intend to follow that route. Moving from Lagos to Cotonou then Canada. Please share experiences with me.

Hello great mentors,
I recently got my study permit to resume Jan 1, 2024 to Dalhousie University, Halifax. Please I need your candid advice my great people.
1. When is it advisable to book for flight
2. When is it advisable to resume school, some say 1 week before resumption date is ideal
3. Is it good to book from Cotonou as most flight from Nigeria are very high towards Dec.
4. The cheapest flight I saw has 2 layovers in Brussels and Frankfurt. Is it wise to go for it or will it require transit visa.
Thank you dearly.

The delay is due to the volume of applications IRCC handle these days. Continue to send the webform and mails at least 2 or 3 times a day. You may need to attach your admission letter with the mails and webform to express the frustration the delay I s causing you. Surely, they will answer you soon.

Iyere2023:
Please can someone make an input on this

Application submitted since 24th July
Eligibility started 30th aug
Medicals updated to pass 8th sept
It’s over 7 weeks and I am worried
I have sent countless webform, is this time frame normal?
People get medical passes and get PPR within 3days.

Guru’s please what can I do?

Not funded yet. I'm optimistic that funding will be available when I get there

Please has anyone experienced this.
My medicals was updated on the 11th of July ( with Passed) though upfront medical.

My Biometric was done on the 18th of July and same day was updated (Completed)

Ever since then it's been showing in progress for eligibility, background check and finally decision showing in progress too.

Then last week I was able to check through tracker and it's still showing medicals completed, Biometrics completed while eligibility and background are still showing in progress.

Just yesterday I logged on to my ircc portal and discovery date of medicals has been changed from 11th July to 12th July and Biometric changed from 18th July to 19th July.

So I do not understand why it's so.

Note: the Eligibility and background checks are still reading in progress.

Dear guru, please what's the procedure to submit my passport in Lagos VFS. Between UPS and DHL, which is better to use from Enugu or Ibadan. Thanks

PPR update...
All glory to Almighty God
First time applicant PhD.
All hanks to every member of this noble family whose contribution always provide huge information for every success we record here every time.
Special thanks to Sir. Efeturi for wonderful insights and advice that landed this big prize for me.

Try to login to Qlife site on or before 7am Mondays. That's when they open their portal for appointments other days will appear as closed.

JMG12:
Check IOM if you can't find a date then you should quickly choose the closet one but it is occupy

Congratulations. Please drop your timeline

SAMadex11:
Please celebrate with me. It has End in praise. Full gist Shortly

I always check the tracker too. I have sent countlezz mails too. The tracker just keep unpdatin.

Chibudinho55:
How often do you check your tracker, cos i always check mine on a daily basis. As at today, the last update was on Aug 30th

I tired oooo. I submitted June 20, had my biometric July 7. I later went ahead for upfront medical Aug 7, then uploaded the e-medical form through webform Aug 8, got medical passed through application tracker Aug 11. I have been bombarding them since Aug 14 to know update. They only updated it on my application tracker but it still shows eligibility and background verification in progress. My school resumes next week. I have even pleaded with my supervisor to help defer my admission. I'm really tired.....

Chibudinho55:
I submitted on July 30 with the old portal, my app will be 1month old by tomorrow.

Congratulations. Your perseverance is truly tested.

charlesoz19:
PPR at last I'm greatful to God..after 4 refusal

If it was IOM appointment you had for Aug 21. Try q-life on Monday morning at exactly 8am. You may get date earlier than Aug. 21.

Nik4kk:
House please i
need help
I got my medical request letter today , but i wqs booked for a later date by august 21 and it would be late by then . Any advice on what to do please?

Big congratulations

Godfatherfigure:
Congratulations Toyin. Please if you still have the study materials you used to prepare for the bcs certificate in IT, can you please share? Thanks

It will be better to prove that he is your uncle, probably your mum's brother. Let him sworn affidavit to that effect. He will need to show financial commitment by transfering the fund to your personal account. He will also provide his bank statements and proof in the affidavit that sponsoring you will not affect his other financial commitment. Aside this, you should be ready to prove your home or economic ties and write a strong SOP to tidy all.

Chubby682:
My greetings to everyone here, I am about to apply for the Canadian student permit and I have a question. My dad's friend who is very financially well off,, is willing to sponsor me for a PGD which is a one year program and he deposited $8000(Usd not Cad) in my domiciliary account 8months ago. He willingly to paid first term tuition which is 9000cad and deposits the balance of 9000cad in my domiciliary account. My lingering question is that is tenable to the VO that someone who isn't your family is willing to your education. Expert in the house 🙏

Big congratulations

nnamdi346:
PPR!
Thanks be to God.
I would also like to express my sincere appreciation to all of you. The benefits I gained from this forum were truly significant, to say the least!

Same here. I tried to book l. It says my IRCC number already in use. I called no response, tweet no response, mail but only reply with automated message that my query will be attended after 2 business days. I'm really confused. I'm thinking of going their Lagos office to do in-person appointment.

Dampops:
Hello, is anyone also having problem booking appointments on the VFS website for passport submission. The site server has been erractic since weekend.

Which program is it. I think 10k living expenses is not included in this. So it 34k plus 10k. You can try to get further information from the school.

chrisifeanyi:
Please from this tuition breakdown, how much do I have to pay as an international student.
I'm a bit confused here.
There CAD10,000 shouldn't be inclusive for international students.

Ok. I have tried to mail them but no response only automated message that it will take them 2 working days to response.

Bobomaigida:
Use the chat function on their site to talk with them, explain the issue for them to proffer a solution.

Ok bro. I have been refreshing a number of times since then it kept giving me same error. Maybe I should call them? Thanks for response

Chinnychappy90:
Try registering afresh.

Congratulations. Please what can I do to rectify my issue, I applied on June 21 applied for biometrics appointment June 22 but error came that my IRCC number is already in use. I have tried severally even to reschedule or cancel the appointment. It keep asking for reference number that I never had. I even mail them to complain. It only returned automated message that I will be attended to in 2 working days. I don't know what to do next. My resumption due for September 1.

Chinnychappy90:
Hello everyone. I just created this account. I was here before as Chinnychappy but couldn't remember the password so I just followed the thread as a guest. I just had to create this to encourage the likes of christyjiji that your ppr would come shortly. I got mine on 21st June and till now I haven't been able to express the feeling. I had deferred last year fall start to this year coz of funds plus I just had my baby in march and admission came out in April 2022. I was only able to submit my visa application in mid may and got ppr 21st June
Thank you @Osemigho, @just mellow and all others who responded to my questions last year before I deferred.
To everyone, you can do it yourself. I got a supervisor, admission and now ppr myself though lots of work was involved. Juggling full time work, caring for kids/family.
Submitted 15the May
Biometrics done on the 19th and updated on the 22nd
Medicals passed on the 23re
Eligibility 17th June but I feel it was going on all along coz I got a request letter for my updated LOA on the 19th June.
Correspondence/ppr on 21st.
All the best people
Please don't forget to commit all your actions to God in prayers.

No agent my bro. I have tried to reschedule. It keep asking me of reference code of the previous appointment which was never done. I have mailed, tweet vfs no response. I just tired.
