Thank you!

[quote author=yingman post=137553449]Yes, it has been done before. IRCC accepts gift deed as long as the money is genuinely transferred and the donor confirms it is a gift with no expectation of repayment.

Hi everyone, has anyone used a gift deed from a family member in Canada as POF for PR application? How did the family member transfer the funds (from Canadian bank) to the Naira account? Was it Western Union or bank-to-bank? Thank you.

Has anyone submitted their passport in person at VFS Abuja recently? What is the process and how long does it take to complete the submission if you just walk in without an appointment? Thanks

Temas:
No.. you are good

Thank you!

Please, I would appreciate some advise especially from those who have applied for visitor visas for immediate family members.

A PR submitted an online TRV application for her dad from within Canada (Dad is not in Canada). The IRCC account is for the dad but the payment and submission were done from within Canada. Would there be a problem since the submission was from within Canada?
Thank you.

Hi everyone,

Please could someone help me with the contact for a reliable Cargo agent in Abuja?
Thank you.

Congratulations GS......this is great news.

[quote author=GlitteringStar post=69434031]Hello Everyone,

My mum received her passport today. Visa valid till 2022 (her international passport's expiry date). Kindly find below her timeline.

Hi everyone,

M family friends (a couple) applied online for visitors visa since May 25.
Tracking their application status has not yielded much beyond the "Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility". This was the status as at last night.

Please, what do you advise they do?
Thank you.


My intended travel date was July 1st. How about you?[/quote]

Still on the WES issue, please, does anyone have a contact in UNIZIK for transcripts? I could really use one now. Is WES verification with them via mail or email? Kindly email me the details at emp.beryl@gmail.com God bless you.

Elfmannisback:
Send separately now, you won't heed to it.

I am also keen on any tips or comments regarding Vancouver. I would be arriving sometime in August.

bankylan:
Is there anyone living in Vancouver BC or intends to live there on this platform? I have read comments about Ontario and Alberta but there seems to be nothing on BC despite the great weather and the natural beauty of the province. Canada....

Congratulations, more of such good news.

Thanks for the knowledge shared here. Goes back to silent reader.

N48,000 in Abuja Clinic....(January this year)

Dazzlinganio:
Good morning all. please this question is for people in Abuja that have done their Medical. Between Abuja clinic and IOM which one is cheaper. I saw 40,200 for IOM on their website, but I couldn't find the price for Abuja clinic.

Well, N13,890 is Passport Transmission Fee
N460 is for SMS while N8060 is for courier
You really do not have to pay for courier if you are willing and available to go pick up your passport.
I paid for the first two only (N14,350). So once you get the SMS, you go pick up. By the way, try to go with the exact amount. If you meet an irate staff at the 'Bank', hmmmm, you will need the grace of God to stay calm, especially if you have waited for long.

DboyizGood:
You guys should start contacting cic and complain about the new development na. When people sent this thing directly to Ghana...there was no extra charge na...what is the 14k for if there is an extra 8k for courier fee.

Mbok, share the already typed one first.

Newmum0615:
With the way you guys are waiting for this my PPR announcement ehn, I think I need to go and make my post more dramatic. I don type am down

This is always a delightful post.....Congratulations.

I want to specially thank Glittering Star & Slik...just two days ago, they advised me to hold off on submitting my application for study permit. They encouraged me to hang in there, atleast give my PPR application some more time, rather than inadvertently jeopardize everything by presenting dual intent, even though it was not against the law.
To the new guys here....please just read. You stand to gain a wealth of information about the various processes. Ofcourse, always reach out when in a fix.
Thanks to everyone on this thread...Guitarlife (for gcmsbuddy link), Tojued (told me not to wait for 6 months to apply for gcms notes), Unyted (told me my VO), Frankrobbn1 (told me who to address my study permit LOE to) your comments are helpful. Patiently help the new guys.
THANK YOU everyone

Aha!....sounds like something I should be identifying with, abi GlitteringStar?



Lol. I think she wanted to write CPCO and not CPOC. My PPR mail was from CPCO-FinalRequest/CTDO-DemandeFinale too. CPCO means Case Processing Centre Ottawa.[/quote]

MightyGIE, thanks for the concern.
I asked that same question but have not received any thoughts from gurus.lol.
My AOR is 16 Jan 2018....My application has been at "Bacground check in progress' since Feb 27....I guess thats what they call IP2? Spoke with a CIC agent 2 weeks ago and she said my file was in Ottawa....thats all she said.
Considering school starts September 1, I have decided to apply for my Study permit. I mean what are my options? Sit and wait and hope I get my PR before September 1? In want of what to do, I would order for gcms notes tomorrow. What next should i do? Call CIC again, maybe this time they have some update for me? I really do not know what else to do, except wait and pray.

MightyGIE:
Hello LadyW, how far did your PR application go? Ask the gurus if it's okay to apply for a study permit cos it may show dual intent - applying for TRV with a PR underway

Thanks for this Frankrobbn1.
I read on this thread that the Lagos office only processes paper applications?
I am applying online, hence my uncertainty.
Thanks again for your thoughts.

Frankrobbn1:
LadyW,

With the recent findings of different visa offices processing study permit applications for Nigerian applicants, It's best you address your letters to:

The Visa officer,
Deputy High Commission of Canada,
4 Anifowoshe Street,
Victoria Island,
Lagos, Nigeria.

Oh yes...one UBC over here. Resuming September 1. Will be submitting my application on monday, online.
Worried though as I would submitting the proof of Med Exam I did in January for my PR application.
I included in my LOE that the uploaded proof of med exam was done in January, is yet to expire but I can go for another if I am required to. By the way, I am not sure of how to address my LOE....I addressed it to the Accra VAC, since i am submitting online. Any thoughts on all these? Please share. Thanks

Vizzle4sure:
Same school as mine. Will be submiing online next week too. To resume August.

Please any other UBC applicant resuming August

Great, thanks.

Tojued:
You don't have to wait for six months.

Thanks Guitarlife. A quick one, is it someting i can do all by myself or do i have to go through someone in Canada?
Thanks again.

Guitarlife:
order for gcms notes www.gcmsbuddy.com.
Just NGN 4k

Should I perhaps order for gcsm notes? Or do I wait till my application crosses the 6 months processing time.... @Tojued and Unyted? Please what do you think?
Thanks.

Oh really? Thanks

unyted:
That means your visa office is Ottawa!

Ottawa is becoming the new LVO

N48K in Abuja Clinic

unyted:
This looks very similar to my timeline.

AOR = 19 Jan

IP2 = Feb 27

VO = Ottawa

.....

I put a call across to CIC last week Friday and i was told my file was in Ottawa. I dont not know what that means. Thats my LVO or maybe I am still in IP1 even though my background check has been in progress since Feb 27 when it changed from NA.

luffyhaki:
Hmmm...It is well.

LVO?
