Better submit jejeli in Lagos because Lagos VFS passport collection is faster now, but if you don't have BP you can try Abuja lol how this Abuja people are delaying passport dispatch nowadays is become something else

Thanks Ashirioluwa, do you travel for tourist or visit friend and family ?


Ashirioluwa:


They might ask you where you intend to stay because they did ask me but never asked me to show proof.

If you have a friend who you want to stay with, you can say so. If not, then make a hotel reservation.

Some hotels will allow you to cancel your reservation up to 12 p.m. on the day you're supposed to check in.

Thanks omomessiah, do you visit your spouse or relative? reason I asked is for those who are travel for tourist if pay hotel is compulsory to avoid immigration wahala.


omoMessiah:
Well answered by Emmafe already

Travel / Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Gentlesoul3268: 6:54am On Jul 03, 2023
Thanks bro, I hope you are enjoying your stay in Canada?

Reason I asked if necessary to pay for the hotel before boarding is because last time I visited south africa people are denied at the port of entry, and If there's anyone in the thread that recently travel for tourist can answer this question.

Because hotel booking is not applicable to those who visited their spouses or relatives.












Emmafe:
Just make reservations, you don’t need to pay for it. If you’ll pay make sure it’s one you can cancel incase you don’t eventually like it.
Travel / Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Gentlesoul3268: 10:37pm On Jul 02, 2023
Omomessiah thanks for the update God will show you mercy.

Please do you applied as a tourist? If yes do you paid for the hotel before you move?

Thanks

Study permit application is different to visitor application when they are done with her application they will surely get back to her.

IRCC are unpredictable they treat application differently so relax bro she will get her visa


dafeoroyo:
Please,what could have happened to my wife visa visitor applications that both of us submitted together may 18 last year,may 9th 2023 I received my own letter to submit my passport,my visa already issued and my passport returned back to me but my wife has not hear anything till today regarding hers,but I can recall when we submitted,my brother in the USA also run a student study permit for her,when he notice the visitor visa is getting too long for a response from them, though on the 2 occasion she was refused the study permit with flimsy excuses sha,could this have been the cause why her visitor visa has not yet been approved, because both of us clearly indicated on our application to travel with spouse and I am the principal applicant ,pls what should we do
Travel / Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Gentlesoul3268: 6:40pm On Jul 01, 2023
Yes they give visa with passport validity and biometrics, but in your case you need to inform them through webform with new passport so that they update your profile with new visa validity.



Livylicha:
Yes. The main reason why we renewed was because we had only a year left on the old one, but we were informed by someone who recently got her visa (she has Never been to Canada) that they give according to what you have left on your passport so she went and got a 10 year passport and got a 10 year tourist visa.

In order to maximize that, we went and got a 10 year 64 page passport as well. Fingers are crossed. I hope they give us a mutuple entry 10 year visa too.

Julieni:


Thank God you got there before time.
Travel / Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Gentlesoul3268: 3:22pm On Jul 01, 2023
Relax you will receive another email from them indicate Lagos before you will go and pick it up.

My advise Lagos is massively faster now you may no need to send your passport to Abuja.


rockyryuks:
Did you just goto the lagos office because the email they sent to us was that in person appointment is not possible. We dont even know the process to pay for courier. After sending them the courier fee where will we send the receipt of payment to. Please someone assist with how to collect stamped passport. Thank you. This is the email we got that passport is ready. We sent the passport to Lagos, does this mean the pickup is Abuja. Confusing.

You can send your passport through dhl one way to VFS on Monday without booking any appointment.


growersfarm:
We sent 2 mails and filled the webform twice but got only an auto response from the mail sent and a response to the webform mail acknowledging receipt of mail. We received our passport request today. I say a big thank you to everyone for their help. The ealiest available date for submission of passport at VFS is on the 19th of July but we will be travelling on the 12th. Is it possible to submit our passport in the US for the canada stamping? What are our options? We have sent them an email asking if we could submit it in the US.

Finally gotten my passport from VFS Lagos office today submitted last week Friday.

I was giving number 336 when I arrived around 1:30pm and there are many people waiting for passport collection at the back of the VFS office, if you are going for passport collection please be there as early as possible.

Lagos VFS office is now faster than before and l think no need to send your passport to Abuja anymore my one cent advise.

You will only allow to enter within your appointment time but you should be there before 2pm.

No one can determine the time frame for your tourist visa only VO


Biggyman11:



Please i will need your advice. I Submitted my Tourist Visa application on the 27th and got Biometric letter on the 28th. After booking my Biometric Appointment, i saw 2pm on the appointment time at Vfs and i booked it. Do you advice i get to the venue early in the morning? would they let me enter in the morning regardless my appointment time? Also, how many months does Tourist visit Visa application take to process after submission, do you guys think i'd get my visa approved as i have travelled to 15 countries including Uk and France multiple times? your answers will be appreciated.

Please guys I need help. I got email for medical last week Friday been 23rd, however, I did my upfront medical on the 16th. I have send webform two times now, last Friday when was requested and yesterday respectively, and nothing has changed.


Please I'm worried, I don't want to spend money going for another medical again. What do I do?

Note on the webform I didn't see anywhere to tag it URGENT. So I just added URGENT at the beginning of the message box

Anyone who have had this similar experience should tell me what he or she did. I'm becoming restless. I need your help

Nice one bro pls which airport ?



omoMessiah:
Very correct.
I just arrived, since on Thursday ahhh

Used klm
Flight 11:45pm on 22nd arrived Amsterdam past 7am.
Next flight for 12pm Netherlands time, we boarded and one story to another by klm for 4hrs inside plane then on the run way moving already before they said AC is bad etc they sha cancelled the flight booked for only one night for hotel and flight is supposed to be in 2days time(Saturday 5pm) and my conference is on friday abi what is this nothing wey man fit do. They said the hotel will update it... OK ooo.
We sha wait to use hotel that's outside of the airport, immigration refused because we don't have schengen or Netherlands visa but later they sha run Background check and gave some of us 2days stay visa inside Netherlands and passport stamped naxo I sha enter and still see my elder brother.

Back to the hotel matter, after first night and now check out time na im hotel ppl tell us say klm paid for 1night and we had to leave(this happened to all ppl in different hotels) we got back to airport and klm told us to pay for 2nd night including other expenses and we will be refunded... issorite ooo

Saturday sha came and we zoomed but then some people are still left as plane over full and klm asked for volunteers who are willing to cancel their flight and will be compensated... to cut it short we landed successfully.

At POE I didn't spent up to 50secs

Officer: what are u here for

Me: xyz conference (didn't even ask if conference passed or not as the flight delay caused it)

Officer: is this related to your profession?

Me: YES, she checked my information on her system.

Officer: How many days are you staying and what accommodation?

Me: x days and y hotel

Officer: welcome to Canada

Me: smiling like ayamatanga...lol
