Did you use vfs courier service or dhl?

Lixusheng:

It would change after your passport has been stamped

rexokemute:


It's funny, profile still reads eligibility is being reviewed.

Eligibility didn't change

Hello, please what date did you submit your passport to VFS Lagos. Cause I’ve submitted mine since 7th of November and haven’t gotten any update regarding it. Thank you.

Up till now, nothing?

apeja2017:


Same here.
I submitted in person at Abuja oo on 7 nov and same day I got a mail that it has reach them.

Thank you.
Please do you know how to book appointment for passport submission walk in?
The appointment I’m seeing is for biometrics

johnstan:


Consent form is attached.

Hello guys,

I did my biometric in lagos but i want to send to abuja for visa stamping through DHL.

I also saw that DHL cannot return the passport once its stamped.

Which documents am I going to put in the envelope? I saw something about consent forms, I don’t understand that

I saw that i’d need to pay transmission fee & sms alert fee since I didn’t do biometric in abuja

Since DHL cannot return my passport once it’s stamped, i read that VFS has their courier service, how can i go through with that? What’s the amount?

I’ve tried searching nairaland for the above information & and even called VFS but they said they’ve closed

Any assistance will be appreciated

Did your friend receive a medical request like you?

Okudi23:
no manual to this! My friend who I did medical with just this Monday got his PPR this noon!

Has your medical been updated on the portal?

Okudi23:
applied July. Did my biometrics 1st of August.

How can i apply for my Gcms note please?
I also heard it’s expensive, does anyone know how much it costs?
My application is 13 weeks & a day today

johnstan:


The response time depends on your choice of intake and how close it is.
Winter intake resumption is in Jan, if that's your choice it will take a while and that's if you're not waitlisted.

Apply for an Intake that's not resuming anytime soon and response would be within 3 weeks.

Good luck.

Thank you, I’ve tried raising a webform but it keeps asking me to choose a location

Ogeebee:

This is the email
nrobi-immigration@international.gc.ca

Congratulations

Congratulations once again

Study Permit Timeline
- [ ] First application: new portal
- [ ] Submission of application: January 28
- [ ] Biometrics: February 1, 2022
- [ ] Biometrics updated: Next day after biometrics i think
- [ ] Background check was updated just before the final decision but carried February 1 as the date of completion
- [ ] Eligibility started: June 17
- [ ] Final decision: June 17
- [ ] BVL and refusal letter were sent at once
- [ ] Reason for refusal: Your assets and financial situation are insufficient to support the stated purpose of travel for yourself (and any accompanying family member(s), if applicable).

I requested GCMS notes but didn’t wait for it before reapplying. While waiting for a response to my application I did some research and picked out some things I did wrong in my application.
- [ ] I didn’t explain the source of funds in my account and
- [ ] instead of uploading the flywire receipts for fees ( which are verifiable), I took a screenshot of my student account with the school.
- [ ] Another thing I did wrong was that I made a mistake with the document arrangement. Under the part for POF, I merged the screenshots from my school account (1st page) and statement of my savings account. In the section for other documents, I added the statement of my salary account as part of the documents which had about 2m naira in it.

GCMS notes: This was sent exactly 30 days (excluding Canadian public holidays) and it stated that I did not pay school fees and I had only 4000 USD as proof of funds.

This meant that everything uploaded as POF was disregarded or the officer looked at just the first page of what was uploaded and didn’t bother to look through the rest. This is despite stating the amount of fees paid in my LOE.

I didn’t have upfront medicals or police certificate for 1st application

- [ ] 2nd Application: new portal, same account
- [ ] Submission: July 6, 2022
- [ ] Upfront medicals done: July 4,
- [ ] Medicals updated: August 4

- [ ] Final decision: 27, October 2022
I ordered GCMS notes on the 14th of October.

Documents submitted:
- [ ] LOA from school
- [ ] 6 months statement of account
- [ ] International passport
- [ ] LOE: for the second application I explained the source of funds in my savings- work bonuses from 2017 till 2021 and sales of car in 2021
- [ ] Bonus letters for 2017 to 2021 from my company to support POF
- [ ] Car Sales agreement letter to support POF
- [ ] Letter of introduction from the company stating current role, work history, and annual salary
- [ ] Leave Approval letter stating I had permission to attend school for a year, and my work resumption date after the program is complete
- [ ] Payslips for 6 months, stamped and signed by HR
- [ ] Contract letter from when I was hired
- [ ] MBA certificate
- [ ] B.Sc certificate
- [ ] MBA transcript
- [ ] B.Sc transcript
- [ ] Senior School certificate
- [ ] E medical information sheet
- [ ] Receipt for medicals
- [ ] Police character certificate
- [ ] Verifiable records of payments from the school
I sent updated LOA via a webform and I got a response weeks later that my records would be sent to the necessary IRCC office in Nairobi for update.

I still sent this again with an updated letter from my company approving a change of the date of my leave of absence. I also clearly stated that I had deferred my admission to the winter session.

I also sent a webform on week 13 and an email on week 15th when nothing changed on my application. For the mail, I immediately got an automated response and another email explaining that they have a backlog. My eligibility started the day after I got the response.

I decided to create this account to share my testimony because this group gave me hope during the waiting time (plus all the gbas gbos made me laugh, but I’m glad we moved past that). I want to encourage everyone waiting not to give up, and keep having faith because with God all things are possible. I joined the Halleluyah challenge and tabled IRCC before God ooo, my response came after the last day of the challenge which was themed VICTORY!.

The last thing I will say ( which is very funny because I thought people were being ridiculous typing it here all the time until IRCC showed me shege) IT WILL END IN PRAISE!!!.

I’ll be active here for another 1 week to answer questions before closing the account. All the best people.

I also typed this in faith around the period that my eligibility review started.

Still waiting please

It's PPR guys!!!

First of all, I would like to thank God for my approval. I finally got my PPR after 3 attempts.

First Application:
Applied April 19, 2021.
Refused August 12, 2021.

In the first application, I used an agent because I didn't know much about the whole process of Canada study visa. I joined nairaland when the application was ongoing and I learnt so much just reading through the threads. I wouldn't even consider it as an application cos the agent literally did nonsense, omooo, I was like does this man knows what he did? After the refusal came, I decided I was going to apply myself the next time.

Second Application:
Upfront Medicals: 22nd February, 2022
Applied: February 26, 2022.
Refused: May 6, 2022.

This time I applied myself using the information I got from nairaland, but unfortunately I got refused again. That was my fault, I thought the Proof of Funds was going to be enough, but it wasn't. I thought this would be my last application cos the refusal hit me so harddd, I ordered for GCMS notes to find out the main reason, nothing concrete was really written there.

"They said the documentation provided in support of the applicant's financial situation does not demonstrate that the funds would be sufficient or available. I am not satisfied that the proposed studies would be a reasonable expense". Then I knew nothing much had to be done, just to make sure my funds is higher and also to make sure it would be readily available. I decided to give it a try one last time.

Third Application:
Applied July 2, 2022
Upfront Medicals updated to pass on the 17th of August.
PPR came October 12, 2022.
Eligibility didn't start until today when I got my PPR.
Just yesterday, I messaged MP's to help me enquire about my application and they were willing to help and today boom!!!
I'm just so happy right now, the feeling is so surreal.

I really cannot believe that I am sharing my PPR testimony, I just want to thank you guys for assisting me through this whole process. Trust me it hasn't been an easy ride but God came through for me.
Then to my fellow July applicants @Thomsyne, @Isyma and other PPR expectant, I pray your applications get approved soonest. For those that were denied keep firing, if I can get it then trust me you can.
