Yes, if you do not drop your passport where you did your biometrics. For example; If your biometrics was done in VFS lagos, and you submit in vfs Abuja, you will be charged some amount of money. But if you submit it where you did your biometrics, its free of charge. Except you want to pay for their return courier services (Which i don't advice)

I did my biometric in vsf Lagos. I will be the guy that would help them "open shop " tomorrow morning.

DereI:
Woooow, congratulations!!! I had to rush and login to my profile and noticed I had an UPDATE: Review of eligibility - We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.

God will do mine for me tooooo ooooo

Amen

CanadianNurse:
drop it at vfs... DHL cannot just carry passport across boarder like that not sure though but I know you should drop at vfs

And will vsf charge me? And if yes how much

CanadianNurse:
Congratulations � � welcome on board

Many more to come

Thank you guys. I really appreciate. Pls how do I send my passport? Since I applied online do I send via DHL to Cic office in Accra GHana or should I drop at Vsf office in Lagos ? I would apppreciate your response.

amnotapervert:
when did you do it and what hospital was it..? I just want to know the time frame from doing the medical and applying passed online

Well I did upfront medicals initially but still sent me a mail(through my cic act) requesting for medicals. All I had to do was to send them the same upfront medical report I did.

trexxbanks:
Bro , how long did it take for your med status to change to passed on your cic account ?

16days.

PendD:
Did you get a mail when they passed your medical online. I am tired of checking my profile monitoring and thinking they won't email me when they update my medical. Pls reply mine is officially 11 weeks today.
I applied 28 April online...no update. Medical still reads u don't need a medical...we will write you if this changes. Eligibility reads, we will write you when we start.

Sure you will get notification. Am sure I refresh my mail more than 20times a day. Just be prayerful and patient your medicals will be updated.

5454Darese:

I APPLIED on the 29th of April. They sent medical mail on the 23rd of June . Medical passed on the 12th of July

PendD:
I applied 28 April. Pls what's your eligibility status. Mine says we will send you a message when we start. I have not gotten a mail that they have started. I guess they are still on background check for 10weeks now.

It says we are reviewing your eligibility

CPA01:
Good morning guys

Any April applicant still waiting for CIC response?

Applied 25th April (Paper) Review of eligibility since June 1. No response till date

April 29 online medical mail June 23rd. No update if medical passed or not yet

Hi guys,

Please how long does it takes for cic to update my medical status? .They requested for my medical on the 23 of June. And I sent them a copy of my upfront medicals I did around April (which I already included in my online app) But still they are yet to update my Medicals.
Pls what do you advise.

bluegirl080115:
I hope you replied that medical call well by sending your upfront medical form

Yes I did, they responded like 5 days after. We got your mail and doc. Am hoping to see medical pass very soon.

Hi guy, has any one noticed that It is only paper route that is been processed faster. Much of the delay or pending are more for online route. I hope they speed up things o! Cus this waiting is killing.

Well I Applied on the 29th of April 2017. Online route Msc Economics University of Guelph. Got medical invite on the 23 of June (But I did upfront medical Am woundrying why they still sent me mail for medicals)

Talk of respect and humility in your post. Nuff said. This is the problem with Nigeria. What happened to freedom of speech and expression in this country? People can't express their ideas when it has repeatedly worked for them? I studied in the U.S. on full scholarship, all expenses paid, single handedly got my visa there. Now the same thing is happening for me in Canada for my graduate studies. Yet I know nothing and my ideas means nothing and I am not allowed to disagree with the so called gurus? Please continue to ignore me. I know some are listening and I will continue to dispense all I know and learn in the process too.

Guy, true, anyone has the right do decide what he or she feels is needs for their visa application. Like me, I included pictures of my landed properties and my car and even a 10m fix deposits I liquidated last year November (as my financial history). So you can write a PS that collaborate your application and if you choose not to, all well and good. The end is for us to get our TRV and the Canadian dream�

REASONS FOR DELAY IN PROCESSING OF STUDY PERMIT

High number of applications
Failure to respond to CIC request for information quickly
Communicating by mail instead of using an online account
Need to Interview you
Your Medical & Security Screening takes longer than usual



With these valid points please all paper application should be linked online, if you want faster information then it is compulsory
Also before you submit your paper application, kindly go for E-medical so that you can submit it along
Police Clearance Report will also save you time
Sharp sharp dey answer cic requests sent to you that means dey think quick and smartly


Enjoy reading

Please what do you mean by "
Communicating by mail instead of using an online account "

Hi guys,
Anyone attending university of Guelph?

CPA01:
Hello people.

Happy Sunday.

Please is there any April applicant in the house that has not gotten response from CIC?. Am just tired of checking my email.

Sure . I applied on the 29th of April. Got medical invite last week Thursday June 23.

bluegirl080115:
Hi Sir, there are 2 things to do
Firstly, Call the hospital you had your med exam and ask them if your upfront med was forwarded to the Embassy. well I believe they would say yes
Secondly, if you have a copy of your e-med kindly scan them and send to the embassy as an email attachment. Also explain that you perform upfront medical with dates.
Trv_Nurse

I have done as you advised. But I would like to know is this a routine? Because I can still see (in the review submitted document) that I actually uploaded my upfront medical report when I applied. So I don't know why they are still asking me for medical examination

Hi guys, please I need your help.

I just got a notification via mail that the Status of application has change. When accessed my application I saw a medical request form.

pkpk:

Pls what can I do. I got a call confirming my invite for the test. But am yet to get any mail to that effect.

Well for those that have written the second test, please can you tell us your strength?

NLC and TUC should respect the decision of the industrial court and shelve the planned strike. Negotiating with the government is what will bring about a meaningful solution and not an indefinite strike that can't be enforced due to the division in NLC leadership.

Negotiation yes is the way forward, but it must be tailored to the reversal of the pump rise of PMS. From my perspective Subsidy is not a bad thing but what is the plan of subsidy. For example subsidy can be used to enhance export or meliorate the effect of import. The Govt. needs develop a plan, to fix the refineries (to work to it its designed potential) and subsequently and gradually phase out subsidy. This means solving the problem from the root and not from the leaf.
