wait self, please is it not possible for one to go via ship to canada? this 1 that flight cost is so high... I'm tired of searching ....

Gu2015:
sorry to say Bt go to CIC website nd read Abt upfront Medicals before U come here and discourage Pple abt it.i stand to b corrected

she's not discouraging, she's simply advising. doing med does not guarantee trv. If you can bear the risk, all well and good.

cocosugar, please what was the time frame btw when you went for medicals, status passed on yr portal, passport request and app closed? congratzzzzz

richcasey:
something strange happened to these May applicants. . . first, they were ignored when medicals started to flow in for June applicants. and then this May applicants later got their medical mail. which was later followed by a denial mail. i don't need a cleric to tell me something definitely went wrong somewhere.

we can all sit here to speculate whether there is a quota or not, but even if there is a quota, sending a medical mail and then a denial mail after, is sure not a proper way to deny applicants based on "quota" palava. i think there must have been an internal error or an internal audit.

it could have been a computer error... yall remember the 2012 American Visa Lottery computer error that led thousands of people to believe they had been selected as finalists in a U.S. immigrant visa lottery. and that selection process, involving nearly 15 million visa applicants, had to be re-run.

.wise talk

berexio1:
There is a possibility in ur above instance. I believe a quota might have been reached for a province though..So u can't say all who applied wud be refused henceforth. Maybe we shud start stating province on our TRV list..

if quota was involved, i feel they would hv bin denied outrightly not after medicals.

IMO opinion, something somewhere went wrong in maybe cic ghana or cic lagos. this made some applications to be reviewed twice by different VOs. still wondering why may applicants were skipped whyl june applicants where answered. a mix up somewhere. the end result cud be reviewing of some docs twice. just my own idea. in all, leys still give thabks to Jehovah for he knows best

favour0011:
The only logical conclusion I can reach from these recent refusals after medicals is that cic had reached its quota for September intakes before sending those medical mails and had rescind the decision after discovering this. I stand to be corrected tho. However, I advice the affected applicants to defer to jan 2016 and refire. Dnt give up cos ur almost there!!

so you mean its denial hence forth?

funmi14:
Hello house, Another issue here o. I just collected my documents and saw refused letter. Applied May 25. Paper route. Medical call July 5, done July 6. July 16... Refused letter...(Insufficient fund) Am confused... Pls house any situation like this before?

where did u do your medical?

herkenorlar:
This is weird! !!, got medical mail July 3rd, my passport was dispatched before stipulated time given for my medicals, got my passport and it was a denial. Purpose of visit, travel history, family times to country n personal asset and financial status was selected, even though I had paid over $7k tuition deposit, added my landed properties and closing personal soa of over 3.9m just for a year PG prog.This is crazy, if they wanna be frustrating Nigerians from schooling in canada, it's high time they made this known!!!

did u go for medicals and where did u do it?

this is so bad. sm1 said something earlier about paper route now handled in lagos lately. could it be linked to the recent denial after medical? what could be the cause?

easyxtan:
How do i book my medical with IOM? I try calling there number + 234 (807) 2191112 but it not Available. Do they also go for holiday?

i think they dint cos i was there yesterday to book and i was informed to come on monday. since mon is also a public hol, i guess dey'll be working today

Advice needed . My travel date I booked has passed same with hotel reservation in Ontario . What are my chances of still getting it right sense my application is still processed at the canada visa centre . Pls ur contribution will be appreciated . Less I forget it's 7weeks already sense i submited application .

what date did u submit? paper or online?

gedtalks:
Please does anyone know if it it possible to send more support documents during the biometrics day (after applying online)

i think that is impossible...

darefestus:


Simple question: Do you know these VOs or have any idea of the internal workings of the embassy.

How do you know they sit in front f their computers and read one-by-one uploaded documents.

Do you know if there are specific departments for each upload section-In which case there will be more scrutiny and thorough checks?

You are getting more entangled in the web of your own assumptions.

Nothing is set in stone about this visa processing so you won't know for certain what they do or dont.

i tire ooooooo.....
