Hello,
I’m seeing the discussion concerning PTA.

The best option is to have a family member open an account at globus bank when you have travelled. Then they’d request for pta for a relative , they’d act as your sponsor. They’d get it at CBN rate.

I know many people that have done it and I am in the process of doing it.

I also her that keystone bank does something similar.
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 3:30pm On Sep 18, 2021
PTA/BTA is a foreign currency product that ensures customers who are travelling out of the country on personal or business trips have access to foreign currency at approved CBN rates.

gracedson:
Please what is PAT and how is it helpful ?

TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 7:56pm On Sep 16, 2021
My opinion
You don't need do another medical tests medical Exam has one year validity
Send the one you have done through a webform. Keep sending it everyday you will be attended to.
Also find out from the place where you did your medical if they have sent it to IRCC.

GoldenCrown1160:
Hello friends.
I have said it here that I did and upfront medical examination and it was updated my profile and later I got a medical request from IRCC. I have sent them messages showing them the evidence of the medical examination but nothing has changed on my profile. I thought of doing another medical examination with IRCC request letter sent to me but
I'm unable get a medical slot booking and the time on my medical request elapse on 30th of this month. Please what can I do huh
Your advice is needed please.

You did upfront medicals? And NSE too?
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 4:39pm On Sep 13, 2021
Ghost updates are not announced by email and an applicant must check their profile to see it. It shows as application update where you have submitted in your application table without any visible difference in your status.

It is usually an indication that your application is been worked on.
Myki007:
Sorry, pls how did you get the ghost updates, via mail or on your profile?
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 3:56pm On Sep 13, 2021
If you have the time read through thoroughly

Frankalvinz:
I'm not sure (correct me if I'm wrong please) but I thought you have to spend 4 days in a hotel at the point of entry as a part of quarantine, before moving to your preferred place of 10days quarantine (In his case Nova Scotia).
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 3:24pm On Sep 13, 2021
Guys

Ghost updates
July 7th Applicant

They should just send me approval and PPR bayi
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 3:16pm On Sep 13, 2021
No you only quarantine at final destination

And that's if you not fully vaccinated 14 days before your travel date. Eg if you took your last dose of 1st of July then, you will deemed as fully vaccinated on 16th July. If I were you I will add another 3 days to it even 4 days. I hate stories

Guys I will advise we update ourselves with travel advice on travel.gc.ca. Also check on the Province of territory you heading to. Take your time and read through what they saying covid19/Self-isolation /Quarantine.

Gentledaf:
I think it would be Toronto being your point of entry
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 3:04pm On Sep 13, 2021

He will only quarantine at final destination (Nova Scotia)
Please check updated travel advice on Covid test/Self-isolation /Quarantine

Baba is best you do upfront medicals and upload the e-medical via webform

frankob:
Greetings everyone one
I need advise.
I submitted my visa application August 27th, I did biometrics in 2019 so it’s still valid. I already booked for upfront medical for September. Is it still ok to do the upfront medical as I have already submitted the application or should I cancel the medical appointment and wait for the IRCC medical instructions before going for the medical?
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 1:38pm On Sep 10, 2021

Yes you can Inform IRCC of your passport renewal. there is no issues with that. Just make sure you scan the bio data page and also upload it with the webform.

Also note that your previous passport number is always included in your current passport.
You can go ahead and inform them

TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 10:38pm On Sep 08, 2021
Looks like going there (I only know qlife, that's where I did mine) will be your best option. Go with your medical request, tell them you only have 30days to submit it. They know the drill. Plead like your life depends on it.

Who knows they might listen to you.

Timmypaul:
Hello my fellow people, embassy has instructed my bro to go for medical ASAP, we have been trying to book an appointment but there are no dates available. Can we go there and make the payment tomorrow and do the medical tomorrow as well. Please advice we don’t have time on our side school is resuming next week thanks.
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 2:51am On Sep 08, 2021
It is when you reside in Canada.

If all your brother did was to click the submit button and pay with his credit card it doesn't have any effect on your application as long when you/he was filling your application you/he indicated that your country of residence is Nigeria

Enjay316:
Please I have question o.what does application submitted from within Canada mean.Is it wen u reside in Canada or if u submitted from Canada. My brother actually submitted my application online within Canada on 24th 8pm after paying for my application with his Credit card. I filled the whole forms but I had to log out around past 12am on 25th and gave him my gckey info to help me pay for my application and submit.I noticed that my application stated I submitted on 24th cos it was my brother in Canada that submitted it even though it was 25th in Nigeria. my question is will it be counted as application made from within Canada ?
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by gaduchendu: 1:59am On Sep 08, 2021

Thanks
Payment has been received by Western Union Busines Solutions and is bn transferred to the MUN
Nevertheless I still requested for the telex copy from my bank. I will send it to my school with a copy of my payment status on GPWestern Union as I have already contacted the Finance unit of my school to notify them of situation.

I will advise anyone that want to make payment through CBN Form A to start the process on time. If any bank tells you trash just go to another bank or branch of the same bank.

Firstly, Access Bank declined the transaction and wasted my time for 2 days. I went to Gtbank I was told I had to open a current account, then Wema bank told it will take 5 days or two weeks, UBA said I must have had an account with them for six months. I didn't try First Bank because their head has never been correct when it comes to Foreign Exchange transactions. Finally went another Access Bank branch and it was done with ease.



usor00:
yea, canada imperial bank.Ok mail the Globalpay to send you your textex copy then send to your school immediately because if your program has waitlist you might be opt out if the don't see the payment by today and the will put another person from the waitlist
quote author=gaduchendu post=105563475]I used Access Bank
Filled Form A on Thursday September 2nd
Money was deducted on Friday September 3rd

By CIBC do you mean Canada Imperial Bank of Commerce.

Cos In my case the payment is made through Globalpay to Western Union Busines Solutions

Most things that enter this country takes another shape. Is better you take here or there, don't compare "naija weed with canadian weed" don't mix it up. If you are over there you can mix it but to carry one shot from here go mix up with another shot there , hmmmmm.
Na beg I dey beg Oooo.

SweetJJ:
why do you say you can't mix them? I think it's only in Nigeria they say that. My school said a combination of Morderna, Pfizer and Astrazeneca is good
