Good day guys, please I just received this mail from VFS:

The decision envelope for your application, tracking ID No.XXXXXXX has been received from the IRCC Office on Wed Nov 08 2023 at the Canada Visa Application Centre, Lagos and is ready for collection.

What are the documents required for collection?

1. You would need, your National Identification Card (NIN).(just in case).
2. Data page of your passport.
3. Invoice of acknowledgement (given to you when you submitted).

But for me, I carried all my documents from A-Z, cos I no want story ....lol

Anyone going to Red Deer Polytechnic, Alberta. Any whatsapp or telegram group please 🙏

NAIT Alberta

Please, I need a graduate/corper Physiotherapist to contact me, if he is based in Abuja.

Natty111:
Thanks a lot , for your replies.

Hello, I would like to comment on this topic of yours.
For me, between geology and physiotherapy.....I would beg you to choose, Physiotherapy.
I, myself....I studied Geology(Geophysics option) and on coming out.....even in the ministry where my dad worked as a MD....I couldn't see a job. You might be lucky as a Geologist/Geophysicist to get a high paying job.....but I repeat, you might be lucky.
I had to switch to working in an Electrical company(someone who studied geology).
For a physiotherapist, you get your pay daily...and you can be seeing as many people as you would have the strength to and make you cool cash.....as a private individual......

Good day please has anyone gotten response from Canadian embassy in Lagos. I did my biometric 6th of October 2023 and an upfront medical since August 2023. It's a month and 13 days and I have not gotten any message. Please I'll like to get response on this if the embassy have been sending messages. Thanks.[color=#006600][/color]

I didn't do mine in Lagos......I left Lagos for Abuja, so as to do my biometrics and Medicals in Abuja.

yamunla:
You will be given a reference letter after the medical for your application and the result will also be mailed to you in 3 to 5 days.

That's very true 👍

mikexceo:
can someone submit the passport for me and documents would the person come with?

Yes, he has to come with a consent form and also means of identification for him/her(NIN or international passport). With this other listed documents.

gideon19:
passport submission at VFS

Appointment booking for submission (if you want to do it in person)
Print out of IMM5740
Your International passport.
And the copy of your data page(international passport) you used for your biometrics.

gideon19:
kindly help with a list of items you took along with you.

For which of the processes?

It was done for me also, because I am a huge spender....when I see money in my account, I would be hungry to spend it. Since it was lien by me....I didn't and couldn't touch the money until the duration.

Kamsi99:
Hello House,

WHICH CONDITION IS BETTER?
Please my brother is trying to come to canada via study route. He has gotten admission for a PGC and first term tuition paid by sponsor (Uncle). We asked our uncle to please deposit 8k usd equivalent to 10k cad into his dom account for one year living expenses just to make his application very convincing, when his visa is approved he will return the money to him.

However my uncle refused to deposit such money in my brother’s account with the only condition that the Dom account must have two signatures ( my brother and one other of his children) just to make sure his money his safe. The VO I believe will frown at this because they will think the money is not readily available to my brother since he is not the only signatory.

We thought about another alternative, now we found a money lender who is willing to deposit such money in my brother’s account with the condition that he will put the account on lien! Is this an issue too? Has anyone successfully used a lien account? Please which option or condition is better for his situation.

Your opinions will be highly appreciated

You can lien the money.....I used it too, and I got my visa approved.
The money is still in your account but just that it is not withdrawable at the time duration u put it for.

moyinoluwalope:
THIS IS GOD,
CONGRATULATIONS
I TAPPED INTO YOUR TIMELINE AND TTHIS TESTIMONRY

You would get yours too.

Please, who knows that best and affordable flight to Edmonton from Abuja......that can be paid in Nigeria

Good Morning Elder state men/women in Canada.
I just got my passport stamped over here in Nigeria.
Travelling to Edmonton(Alberta) and I would like to inquire, what I am to bring over with me to Canada, to help me survive the weather over there and what is required for me to start doing immediately I enter Canada?
And most especially, what flight can I book to Edmonton from Nigeria.
Thanks

quadtunji:
Please, I need a response, it is urgent...

You might be required to pay some money since you are submitting your passport in a different place from where you did your biometrics.

MRtristan:
Congrats man, hopefully i get mine soon. Please was it an upfornt medical you did?

Yes, Bro.

quadtunji:
I will advice you go for the former provided you are sure the passport will come out before expiration of passport submission timeline........

Don't try getting a passport in Lagos, I repeat don't.....you would just waste your time....cos it won't come early

Francesr:
Please is it a must to book passport submission at VFS Can't it be sent via DHL without the appointment booking??

I would advice, if you can book for an early date and go yourself if you are chanced and come get it yourself also.....Courier might take time to convey it thro and fro from the Visa Application Center

Habrek:
Which school is that??
kindly reply .

Not school oooh, for passport submission

Windblown2much:
ohk thanks! Let's say someone is not currently around town, can one use someone else to collect the passport?

He has to come with a consent form from IRCC sign by you and also come with his passport(any valid means of identification), your National Identity card, your biodata page that was acknowledged when you submitted and maybe proof of payment.

lovable85:
Wow…. So fast, Congratulations 🥳 🎉🎉,when did you get your ppr and when did you submit your passport?

I got the email to come submit my passport on the 26th.
I printed my appointment letter and went the next day, 27th.
I received the mail, yesterday (30th) at about 3:05pm that I can come for the collection of my decision.

Windblown2much:
wow..just in space one month. So fast!

Congratulations!

Pls is it the VFS office U submitted ur passport u can go collect it?

Thank you very much.
Yes, it was the same VFS office in Abuja were I submitted my passport, that I came myself to collect it.....because using courier might delay and it is cost effective.

Started my application for study visa - 28th Sept, 2023.

InnoReborn:
Hi Guys, quick question. My PPR dropped on Friday but my agent has not been able to book appointment with VFS for my passport submission.

He said it is busy right now and suggested that I go to the cafes at the VFS office and try.

What do you guys think. The 30 day period to get the passport to the embassy has already started counting and it is giving me anxiety.

You can also book by yourself and go to the VFS centre yourself when you have gotten a date for submission.
Like mine, I got appointment for passport submission the following day after I was asked to come submit my passport.

First application was submitted on 29th November 2021 and was refused 4th April 2022 (After 5months of waiting). I was sad and demoralized but I didn’t give up.
Sponsor was my Uncle in my first application.
I didn’t really submit enough documents cos I didn’t know much about it then so i decided to recall bk my tuition fee deposit from my school, it was refunded i now calmed down and researched more about it before I reapplied again this year after i felt i have gathered enough information and documents.
My admission is for Winter 2024 (January 2024) and its a 2year diploma.
