Good evening All.
I am trying to apply for a visit to Canada through the new portal. I filled the questionnaire in the application link. A list of documents to upload was generated. Surprisingly, the supporting documents requested are just my passport and identity card. The optional documents provided are for those applying for work permit.
I could not find anywhere to upload bank account statement, letter from employer and other supporting documents to support my application.
Please house kindly advise. Thanks.
Go back to the questionnaire and check; maybe you didn't answer the questions correctly as applied to your visa class.

Good day everyone. My husband and I applied for Canada visitor visa Nov 2020. I did the whole application. Two days ago I received a mail from immigration that my husband was not sincere about his response to if he has been denied a visa by Canada or another country. The truth is he applied for a us visa long before we were married and i didn’t know about it: Like I said earlier I filled the application form for him which I unintentionally denied he was refused any visa. But now I am to reply immigration within 10days to explain. Please any help on how I can reply?
Just be realistic in your response to the VO. Explain to the VO as you have stated here, and also let the VO know that you didn't consult your husband to ask whether he has been refused a visa or not when filling out the form. You only got to know this when you asked him based on the message from IRCC. That you are very sorry for being ignorant about that. Then, please give the reason for the US refusal and quote the year he was refused.

Additionally, quote the date you first met (this should be after his US Visa application refusal) with your husband and show further evidence of when you got married (marriage certificate). It will help if you do this on time without eating deep into the 10 days given. Good luck!

Good Day house, please I need your urgent advise
I applied in May 2022, BVL dropped 19th April
The issue is that my passport is expiring November 2023 and have requested for passport renewal which is still pending
I tracked my application and noticed visa number was updated today to expire in November due to my passport expiry date.
Please how do I notify IRCC of my passport renewal considering that my passport must be valid for 6months before travel.
Please advise
You should write to IRCC via webform to notify them of your passport renewal. They understand, and there is no problem with that. If I were you, I would renew 10 years to enable IRCC to approve you 10years TRV.

Those asking about destination being unspecified. I think it's from the information you filled in your application. For instance, someone visiting a family member in Ontario, and filled the family member's address in his or her application. Definitely, his destination will be Ontario.

If your application did not have a specific address of where you are visiting or maybe your tourism schedule has different province. Your application is likely to have destination unspecified. There is nothing to worry about that.

Once you see visa expiry date and visa document number, your PPR is 99.9% loaded.
EXACTLY!

"Hello,

Thank you for the email.

The current application must be closed as it has reached the maximum of the three program choices.

You must submit a new application with the $100 application fee.

Please respond to this email to confirm if the existing application should be closed.

Kind regards,"

Hello, I did not submit medical result alongside my application. I did my medical after I had submitted the application. The medical facility you used are not supposed to allow you undergo another medical examination since the current one is yet to expire, I don't know how you were able to beat that. Nevertheless, since you have done it, same result must have been sent to IRCC. To be sure of your medical status, you can request for the result from where you did it and send same to IRCC yourself... Your PPR is very close..... Start searching for flight ticket.

Good morning. Please, I want to ask what information regarding your Study Permit application one needs to share with Qlife during Upfront medical screening.

Meanwhile, I have submitted my SP application, and I have an appointment with Qlife for Upfront medicals next week. I will appreciate your response. Thanks.

I don’t think so. You can give a call to Q-Life after 2-3 days and ask if they have sent your result to IRCC. I did mine 1st March they told me it got sent 5th March when I called them 6th March and my medical was updated 7th March

Please how long does it take to get your passport back from Abuja? I submitted my passport for visa stamping on Thursday, 2/3/23. Since Wednesday, 8/3/23 status when I track it is showing “your processed passport has been dispatched from the Canada visa office to the Canada visa application centre…”.

In your experience, when do you think I’ll be able to get my passport back? I went to VFS on Friday but they didn’t have it. My main problem is my US IW appointment was brought forward and now I may miss that appointment.

Does anyone know how long it takes typically to get visa stamped and returned?
Relax, you will get your passport this new week.

But that is what my friend used and she is in Canada since last year
And she is encouraging me to use same bank
Seeing a document (refusal) by a visa officer as attached, is enough reason not to use the Microfinance bank. You can have the funds transferred to your account with any of the commercial banks and attach a detailed explanation letter to your application.

Hello friends, I need help.

I am filling out the IMM1294 form and it asks about the cost of tuition, room and board, and Funds available for my stay. My questions are the following:

1)Am I supposed to fill in the costs of 1 year tuition or the whole 2 years duration of the program?

2)Also, I have already paid a 10K portion of the tuition. So, Should I add it to the money in my bank statement and use the sum to fill the "Funds available for my stay"?

3. Am I supposed to fill, print out and sign the IMM5645E: Family Information Form before scanning and re-uploading it to the portal? From what I can see, the form does not have provisions for digital signatures
Funds available for your stay in Canada include total tuition for the entire study period (2years) and living expenses. Please note that the living expenses per annum differ depending on the state you will stay in. This can be found on your school website. Summary: Total tuition and living expenses for the 2 years comprise " the total Funds available for your stay". That's what you should fill in. Note: I will advise using #345 to 1CAD as a conversion rate.

Since you have paid 10k to the school as part of your tuition fee, you don't need to add it to your bank statement, but if you have it as part of your account balance, it's an added advantage.

For the IMM5645E, if you don't have means of digital signature, you can fill, print out and sign. Then scan and upload. It is also acceptable.

Ask ur brother to send the money into ur account some days or weeks before you print ur MBS (mybankstatement) that you can prove to the VO that you've unrestricted access to the fund.
Thanks.
Yes, it is okay to submit your brother's account as your sponsor, provided there are enough funds in his account to demonstrate that he can sponsor your studies and still have enough to cater for himself and his family conveniently. A letter of sponsorship addressed to the Canadian embassy will be required from your brother. Is your brother sharing the same surname as you? If yes, then it's perfect. There is a need for you to show proof of the relationship between you and your brother. In that case, a birth certificate will help in that regard. I hope this helps!

Thanks for your response.

The name on my current passport is my husband's surname. However after I did that passport, I decided to revert to my maiden name hyphenated with my husband's surname and as such I updated all my documents to reflect the hyphenated surname (driver's license, NIN, PVC, bank details etc etc). I swore another affidavit to reflect that change as well as another affidavit of one and the same person. So basically my only document bearing strictly my husband's surname is the passport. And as I'm renewing now, I'm using the hyphenated surname in my application.

Thanks.
It's okay. You can go ahead with the passport renewal with your updated surname. But I will advise you to a newspaper publication regarding the updated name. It's important and will form part of your documents. That is the standard. Note: the newspaper publication must be done with any National newspaper, preferably Vanguard.

You can submit the new passport to IRCC upon request, with a letter of explanation (explaining the reason for the name change). Then attach the affidavit of change of name and the newspaper publication where you have your name. You may wish to also attach other IDs, like your driver's license, PVC, NIN, etc., as further evidence. I hope this helps!

No I did not send anything to them. But i received a notification from them yesterday about my wife’s application as we applied as a family. They requested for the scan page of her passport that has 6 months validity. Her passport expires in May which is less than 6 months. I was impressed they picked this up. The race now is to get the passport renewed within a month and send to them. Hope this helps.
Sure. Thanks alot!

Please Fam,
In the Form A, I have registered on the trade system and put my BVN. Now can I use another person's bank account to fill my Form A. I'm filling the Form and the account to be debited from is my brothers, I don't want the money to be put in my UBA account for some reason, I don't have account with the GTB and I want to use my brothers account instead. Is it possible when filling the form?
Your brother should create an account with Trade System and use it to apply on your behalf. There is a column where Student's info is required. I hope this helps.

Good day guys.

Pls I have a situation and can't seem to find answers anywhere.

I applied for visitor's visa July 2022 and till now no word. Was hoping I will get a response/visa by December. Now I need to renew my passport as if hopefully I am invited to submit my passport, I will get a longer duration for the visa.

The thing is now I will be changing my surname on the new passport which is different from the name I used in applying. As well as the fact that my passport details will be different too automatically.

Pls someone should advice what I'm to do. Thanks.
What is the reason for changing your surname? Is it marriage? If the cause is marriage, you must submit an affidavit of change of name and new paper publication for a change of name.

Yes you can be processed in the CAN+ program, the question is "if you have a valid US visa."

You do not need to pay an extra fee to VFS. You will need to book an appointment at the VFS website. After that, your appointment letter will be sent to your email. Take the appointment letter with you, including the biometrics notification letter you downloaded from your IRCC account and two copies of your passport data page for your appointment at the VFS center.

Note: There is no walk-in service for biometrics. You must book an appointment with VFS. Thanks.

Good evening Nairalanders, trust we all good.

Please I would like to ask the following questions:

I have been to Canada before, sometime in 2018 and didn't abuse my visa. Only stayed 23days and left for the UK for four days to attend a friend child's christening, then back to Nigeria. Please note I have been to several other countries including the United States, France, Italy, Egypt, Uganda South Africa Tanzania and some other countries. At the moment I am operating on a 5yrs UK visa and planned visiting the UK soon on a short vacation.

I want to renew my Canada TRV without a specific travel plan yet. Meanwhile, I have a friend who is now a Canadian citizen and has offered to send an invitation to visit him and his family. This is yet to be concluded though.

Now, considering the fact that my friend got his citizenship via Asylum. Please I need to know if that will affect my application or not?

Meanwhile, I got my first TRV visa via Hotel reservation.

Also, which of the portal is best for recent applications. Old or new portal?

Please I need a professional advice to the above concerns just to clear my doubts.

Thanks!
