Hi Ilionaire. In addition to what Gigdraft stated, traveling to Canada 3 months before resumption might not be illegal. So far, you meet the entry requirement and tell the officer why you arrive too early before the start date. Aside from Cbsa being suspicious, the fund's factor should also be consider, you will start spending money here when you arrive, and you can't work until you resume classes. So one month before resumption is still ideal, and you can settle in within that time frame.

Best wishes.

Please for those that have already used New portal to submit, except from space of additional documents is there any space next for upload such has home tie documents or are we going to combine both SOP and home ties document in single space of additional documents am confused

Hi Geerlings,

Yes. Merge all your documents by using ilovepdf.com(SOP+home ties+certification) should go in the additional documents section, while some of your landed/house documents should go in the proof of fund section. If you have a bulky documents, split them up and use the consent form section.

Best wishes.

Guys! Finally the remaining part of the puzzle was solved this morning after more than 28 emails and webforms back to back. Remember my kids got PPR on 28 June 2022 while my spouse got medical request. The medicals was done July 14th at IOM and the stamped passports of the kids was gotten back from abuja VSF of July 15th. Iom sent the result for medical on July 21st and IRCC uploaded that same day. Then another wait began and i started sending emails and webforms also at some point contacted my mp again. Yesterday morning we got BVL but this morning around 3.20am EDT she go the PPR. At last exactly 1year and 7days becos the application was submitted 22nd July 2021.
It has ended in praises. While waiting for her PPR i already booked airfrance for september just to buy time and also pay less flight fees even at that i paid pass 3k CAD

Congratulation bro!!!

Good day guys, To those that submitted Vv via the new portal recently. I'm about to submit VV for my spouse using my own visa-approved portal.

Please did anyone have an idea of the checklist document I need to upload to support the application. Aside from the Invitation letter, LOE, Study permit, SIN, Apartment contract agreement, School ID, is there any other document I need to add again?

Thanks in anticipation.

Hello, please how did u pay for the application fee, the payment method is using a credit card but I have none just our usual debit card.

Unless you have a dollar card. Alternatively, you can use barter by flutterwave or have someone you trust to pay for you with their dollar card.

I noticed that everyone that got there ppr today submitted IELTS ( according to there time-line). Looks like ielts is a plus.

That is merely a guess. No one knows because of the way IRCC operates. I may say that 80 percent of the approvals a few months ago did not write IELTS. It's just been different this time, at least in my opinion.

My People,

I just received my notes now, to know the stage of my application

But my main concern is under Length of study which should be 2 I saw ''4''

I had to check the IMM forms I submitted to be double sure it was not my mistake. The form has;
Duration of expected study From 2022-05-03 To 2024-04-30

On the first page I saw Stay/Program From 2022-05-03 To 2024-04-30

What should I do in this regard? Raise a webform to correct them or mind my business and keep praying. lipsrsealed

Nothing to be fussed about as your LOA will suffice, I made same mistake too when selecting my program of study. But quickly raise a Webform & Email Asap to Nairobi, Abuja, Lagos for the correction.

Best wishes.

Thank you for the response.
Yes, I'm aware of that. I'm actually asking about the previous jobs I've had. In the new portal, there's a section that asked to list all jobs in the last 10 years. I'm now asking that the job I had between 2016 - 2018, can a reference letter only suffice as evidence? There was no official letter issued or payslip.

A reference letter can suffice for your previous jobs, and you can also show a pictures of you at the previous jobs if you have one.

Not the booking reference.
It’s the flight entering Canada.

Once you select the Airline, you will see that the flight name will be filled, all you need insert is just the number of the plane entering Canada

The Airline Booking Ref is what me I filled as my flight number coz it contain both departure & the flight number entering Canada.

Good day guys, I had to settle to write this because I started my journey here and will finally end it here as well. I recently received my passport request on 21/04/2022.

This journey has started since 2019. My first ever application I used an agent to which was recommended to me by a family friend. My mother was the one in direct contact with the agent all i did was drop documents and go for biometrics. I wasn't really ecstatic about leaving Nigeria then. It wasn't in my plans at all. my application was already 6 months old. Luckily, I withdrew the application as I needed my passport for certain things which I'll not go into the Intricacies. I didn't even bother if my application was going fine or not I just desperately needed my passport at that point not caring what was done or if my application was submitted correctly. Sha I withdrew.

Fast forward to 2020. A friend of mine sparked my interest in traveling to Canada. Especially with the way the country don be. Mhen, then I remembered I had applied for this before. I asked for her advice and she directed me to Nairaland instantly I started reading the thread sometimes I could go as far as 2016 to see what was discussed and how things has changed found that Frankrobbn1, Lekiboboe, Justmellow, Fgmp12, shupy,dommakavelli, just wise where top contributors. So I took my time and read their timelines. Every answers they gave/answered.

However, due to what I already learnt here I knew I had to get in contact with the agent of 2019 again to tell me what he filled in my IMM forms. I also planned to order my gcms files to see myself but I needed the details from the last application and hear what he has to say. I was in shock to what was submitted. The fallacies in my application and knew instantly that I was in deep shit. I can't drastically change any information as that will be considered misrepresentation. IRCC no send if na agent apply for you. So one way or another I maneuvered. I was able to dilute some information. While some i just left it like that. There was no way I could change them.

With what I already knew I applied on July 23 2021. I was then refused November 29 2021. I was devastated. Upon everything whey I don Sabi. Haba na. I ordered my notes the same day I got refused.

I took my time got closer to God, bought some course from Mark holte. Paid for study permit webinars organized by immigration lawyers. Looked for other resources to gather information, felt nairaland wasn't enough. I would always direct message immigration lawyers on twitter i.e Andrew kolton, Raj sharma, Mikal, Mario Bellissimo. I got some information about the Intricacies, learnt alot about chinook e.t.c
Information choke sha.

With that in mind. I addressed my refusal reasons as accentuated by my GCMS notes. Which were sources of funds in 3 words. Packaged my application and applied on the 11th April of 2022. I received my passport request on 21st of April 2022.

Docs submitted in no particular order
1.) Evidence of post secondary education
2.) LOE (1 Page)
3.) SOP (4 Pages)
4.) NIN Slip(Me and my sponsor)
5.) Birth certificate
6.) IELTS
7.) 12 months bank statements for sponsor
8.) My bank statement (4 months)
9.) Business Invoices and receipts
10.) Tuition payment receipts
11.) Recommendation letters
12.) Financial statements of business
13.) Family pictures
14.) Business related pictures
15.) CAC registration docs
16.) Tenancy agreement and evidence of it's proceeds
17.) Sponsorship letter
18.) Bank reference Letter.

It'll end in praise for each and every one of us.



Great new!!! Congratulations.
More to come for all everyone waiting.

What is mbs? And how is it preferable to a normal statement of account printed in hard copy or sent through email


MBs is myBankStatement and is preferable in such that, instead of you submitting bulk copies of SOA, MBS is just a one copy that contain Ticket number and password for IRCC to access those date. So it’s preferable as it also give you enough space to upload other POF docs.

Please is it true that IRCC do not recognise first bank MBS?

IRCC recognize all MBS irrespective of your Bank. So you are good to go with First Bank MBS.

Am increasing the transfer limit tomorrow at the bank, maybe to like 3m/4m in a day, i hope it will be effective from that day?

Then, is it safe and advisable to take naira to Canada and find someone with much CAD and exchange with? Is it safe?

I know someone in Canada that i might ask to help....

Will mtn network work there ooO or na WIFI?

Just source for $ even if it small amount then you can alternatively use the financeApp once you get here. Recharge like 5k call card on your mtn card before coming. My airtel works pretty fine with Telus/Bell service provider.

I mean how do u source for FX with the naira in ur bank acc


I already deposited some fund$ to my dollar acct before leaving.

Alternatively, when you arrive you can download a financeApp eg (LemonadefinanceApp), where you will fund your Naira wallet via bank transfer through your Nigeria bank account then covert the NGN to CAD wallet still in the app and transfer to your Canadian account via interac e transfer.

Also, I heard there is a Nigerian group where people exchange naira to cad but at your own risk.

But can anyone help me with the lowest required money to hold since PTA is out of it.

There’s no minimal amt, you can travel cashless so far your POF is available @POE, but it advisable to hold something as you might needed cash when you arrived. Me I only travel with $1000.

1. PLS is it possible to carry Naira to Canada and change it to Canadian dollars at the airport upon arrival or at their banks?

2. How can one gets foreign currency to spend in Canada in the absence of PTA?

3. Does our Mastercard ATM work in Canada currently and what is the daily limit?

Thanks

1. Yes you can, but the naira as to be in your naira bank account not in cash. Once you arrived you can use lemonadeApp where you change your Naira to CAD, and then transfer through interac- etransfer to your Canadian account.

2. No idea, either you apply for PTA or source $ from Aboki’s which is black market rate.

3. Abeg forget about that naira master-card, monthly limit is 20$.
