Thank God for safe trip

Wawu! A new thread. Congratulations to all those who have received their PPRs, may Canada favour you all. To all those who were delayed, please do not give up, order your GCMS notes (if you have not done so already), address the issues raised and reapply.

Here to give my Landing Gist o.. as e dey hot.

School: Mcmaster University, Hamilton Ontario

Flight Details: Lufthansa, 21st August

Covid test: I did my Pre-departure PCR test with Medicaid in Ibadan on Thursday 19th August, 2021. The results were sent to my mail in the early hours of Saturday, 21st August.

ArriveCAN: After confirming negative PCR test, I downloaded the ArriveCAN app on my mobile phone & answered all the questions asked (flight details, passport information, vaccination status, PCR test results, quarantine plans etc.). After completing the form, I took a screenshot of the ArriveCAN receipt for future reference.
** Because somebody here already advised to register at the Switch Health Website if you will be landing in Toronto, as it makes the pre arrival testing process faster, I also did this. You can register here https://www.switchhealth.ca/en/travel/pearson/ **

Documents: Before heading to the airport, I printed the following documents:
• PCR test result
• Enrolment letter
• Study Permit Approval Letter
• Proof of Tuition payment
• Acceptance letter
• Bank statements
• Rental agreement for where I will be staying during the 14 days quarantine

Check-in /Boarding process: I arrived at MMIA Lagos at about 4pm. I travelled with my boo and we had a total 4 check in bags, 2 cabin luggage as well as our back packs.
Upon entry in the airport, we were directed to the customs officials, who asked us what we have in our bags. Of course this was where we started being billed. LOL!
After this, we went to weigh our luggage. The weight limit for check in luggage was 23kg each. While that of cabin luggage and backpack were 8kg and 4kg respectively. All 4 of our check-in luggage were between 23.5kg and 24.5kg. Cabin luggage and backpacks were way above the limits but the person in charge was gracious enough to give us a pass sha.
** I was kuku expecting the person that will come and tell me to pay 6k for yellow card. So, I can use him or her to catch cruise. Alas, nobody showed up. **
Then we went for document verification. I was asked for my negative PCR test results, Passport as well as my enrolment letter. Because my enrolment letter did not state my date of resumption (September 7), I was asked for my class schedule and then I was cleared for boarding. We sha chilled in the airport till we boarded the flight at about 10pm.

Flight/Stopover: During the stopover in Frankfurt, I went through another document verification process where I tendered my negative PCR test results and my boarding pass.
If you will have a long layover in Frankfurt, you can take advantage of their Hollywood booths where you can watch selected movies for free. I slept wella here!!
Abeg, the flight to Toronto was very very bumpy and the guy seating behind me kept using his legs to push my chair. I almost changed it for the guy o .

Arrival in Canada: I did a self-verification which involved scanning my passport and answering some questions about purpose of visit, vaccination status, expected duration of stay in canada etc. Then a receipt was printed, which I had to use throughout the arrival process.
There were some very strict officers o. Telling people to stand aside and all. One girl was even sent back to the queue because she wasn’t wearing her mask properly. Me I was sha praying o, because I didn’t escape Buhari just to be sent back at POE. When it was my turn, I was asked for the receipt (from the self-verification process), my passport, purpose of visit, school & course name, vaccination status, enrolment letter, Arrivecan receipt, proof of accommodation for quarantine etc. Then I was told to go.
This part was funny, because I had seen the officers giving a paper to some people when they leave and I assumed this was the study permit. So, when the lady said I could go, I was like is that all? (In my mind, “Ogbeni, where is my study permit now?”) But turns out the paper was like a pamphlet for vaccinated people.
After this, I was separated from bae, because he is a PR. Then I was directed to another set of officers who actually issue the study permit. I was asked for my passport & acceptance letter, how much of tuition I have paid, where I will be quarantining etc. and then my study permit was given to me!!!
I went to get my luggage. I actually waited for my luggage for almost an hour. They kept apologizing for the delay through the PA system but luggage no come out. This was quite frustrating sha. After finally receiving my luggage, I went for the arrival PCR test. Guys!! This is where the registration at the switch health website is important o. If you see the long queue, I avoided just because I told them I was already registered. In-fact the whole testing process did not even take up to 10 minutes. So please, register at the website before travelling.

I know my gist is long but you people should manage it like that

This looks like a generic mail.

Amicableoga:
I got this from IRCC. pls can someone explain the stage of my application. I applied May 16th.

Have you ordered your GCMS notes?

Yusufibrahimde7:
Hello everyone,

My study permit was rejected based on travel history and personal assets could any guru assist on it .my admission is still by January 2022. Please I really your help Mr Franck ��

Presently, there is a rule for international students not to come until 4 weeks (or less) to resumption. You can check on the canadabstudy visa thread. A lot of people have been prevented from boarding because of this.

You can apply for study permit extension while in canada. Did you defer to January 2022 after applying because it seems like they issued the counterfoil like you are resuming in Sept 2021?

Have you gotten your Letter of Introduction please?

demure178:

Hi guys. Please how do I get the LOI/Study permit approval letter? Is it going to be sent to my mail box or uploaded on the ircc portal or It will come back with my passport?

This is tricky o. Are you allowed to work more than the 20 hrs per week while studying? Even if the work is not in canada? I'm not sure sha. Maybe the gurus in the house can confirm.

patty10:

I am working but I didn’t get a study leave, however I submitted a letter from my boss recommending me for study and saying I am welcome to continue working part time as I school. Is this ok?

As long as you have enough money for Tuition fees and living expenses, you can sponsor yourself.

ThePianoGuy:
Is it necessary to have a sponsor? Can’t i just sponsor myself if the funds is available?

You pay when you are submitting.

emmalextemtop:
Hello people.

Please, experienced should help me answer this.

Can i pay for the visa fee of $150 before submitting/starting my application at all or must it be after submission i will pay?

Please help, someone is trying to pay for me in Canada, since our card here can't.
Thanks!

Both paper based and computer based tests are the same (I.e same type of questions). The only difference is the way the tests are administered.
So for computer based, the reading, listening and writing tests will be administered on the computer.
Each test will be timed and will be automatically submitted when the alotted time is exhausted. Then the next section will be given to you.
For the listening test, you will be given headsets.
The writing will also be typed in the space provided on the computer.

I suggest you check youtube and also take some practice computer based test to get yourself familiar with it.

Iphiegrace:
Please I need info on the computer based IETLS... can someone who has done it tell me how it works, i have an exam on Saturday and I just realized it’s Computer based

You might have to put the ghana must go in a travelling box. Not sure if they allow but it might get damaged during transit and you may lose some items.

limitless:
I have two urgent questions.

1) Does Lufthansa allow woven bag (Ghana must go) baggage?

2) Is it advisable to book a flight (Lagos to Toronto), but the flight has a scheduled 2hrs layover at Montreal before arriving in Toronto?
