Relax, When you visit Seychelles, Zambia or Botswana , you'd rephrase your statement , don't worry
You think most first world nations are like these third world nations , and you coming from a third world nation with a badge of "high immigration risk country".

You'd learn, don't worry

Temporary or permanent place?

Officialarhnie:
Hi everyone,
Please I’m trying to find accommodation in Ontario, Brampton to be precise. Please anyone with any advice or link to how I can go about it?

Receipt, deed, bank account showing inflow.

Hello beautiful people. With this new CAD to naira rate, my husband and I are thinking to sell one of our properties as we don't want to take chances with POF

Pls what documents can we submit as regards sale of real estate?
Thanks I'm advance as I anticipate your response.

Section 16 and section 40 IRPA is that you i am seeing so?

Daniel4139:
Please, I will appreciate your response

I got a visitor visa done by an agent and during the application he filled in my education history that i have Bsc certificate at uniben but this is so untrue although he didn’t submit any certificate to prove that for my application. Now I want to apply for a closed work permit, and the only certificate i have is SSCE, do u think I stand a chance of approval? Due to my previous application of the vv ?

Just like when we were growing up. Some parents didn't want their kids to get "spoilt" and enrolled them in an all-girls school. The rest is history.

That is exactly my point. I overheard conversations between my kid and a friend he invited to the house. At some point, I wanted to intervene but he told me not to.

He stopped the kid from coming to the house. Both are 10-11yrs old kids and are in catholic schools.

NuCypher:
Illusion. LQBTQIA+ free, and you think your kid is totally immune from it in a Canadian society? I'm waiting for the time they'll stop dreaming. Nigerians need a lot of growing up to do!

FALSE. If you want an LGBTQ-free environment then stay in Nigeria.

I am on the Catholic School Council.

ednut1:
lgbtqia free.

You are right. My 221G was mainly because i went to U.S twice and stayed just one day for both travels. I was given travel history form for 10yrs and eventually my visa was approved after 3 months.

Eriokanmi:
You're kinda worried about your situation. You need to be calm. Refusal under 221g via IW or other means isn't a denial. It simply means they need some clarification on your proposed visit and to do this, you'd have a date with a consular officer in a face-to-face interview. 90% of the time, 221g situation results in approval of a visa. A lot of factors could be responsible for this. If you overstayed during your previous trips, you'd need to explain why. If you gave birth with your B1/B2 visa, you'd need to show up for an interview and explain why. You may be asked to show proofs you paid in full and you didn't enjoy any support to offset your bills, e.g, health insurance or other means. If your purpose of visit isn't cleanly defined in your DS160 too, you'd need to provide details.

Guy, your passport will be sent back to you, wait for it. Under 221g, one cap doesn't fit all so, every applicant is treated on a case by case basis. A letter will accompany your passport which contains different refusal reasons. The VO who adjudicated on your case would tick the reason you were refused and what you need to do next...some, only DS160 and appointment printout page with passport will be requested to be brought during the interview. To others, medical bills , letters and other documents will be requested. Some parents couid be asked for finger printing of their child as well.

A refusal under 221g( administrative processing) doesn't mean you weren't qualified for IW. If you weren't qualified, you wouldn't have received an approval mail to submit your documents to a DHL office with a date in the first place. When you chose IW on the cgi portal, you received a notification that your application would be reviewed and if approved, you'd receive a mail to schedule a date for doc submission, which you did, right? A robot didn't send that approval mail, neither was it an auto response so, that's a proof you qualified for the IW.

My cousin just called. He attended his follow-up appointment yesterday. In the 221g letter which accompanied his passport, he was instructed to only print his DS160 confirmation page, bring the 221g letter, his passport and his follow-up appointment letter for his appointment. The VO didn't ask much questions after the exchange of greetings. He only asked for his passport and...how long are you staying? His visa was approved. He said to me one thing, which I'd like to draw the attention of those with 221g to. He said he checked ceac website weeks after his refusal in March and realised its been updated twice despite being refused. This seems to me that 221g isn't a total denial as many may have thought. They need to check some other things about the applicant which could mean going as far as their home office to fetch some information about you and as they're doing that, they're updating your status. He was refused in March but His status was updated 5th April and 26th April respectively and he saw the first follow-up appointment dates as released the following day, being 27th meaning, ( in my opinion though), they were done with the administrative processing and he should now pick a date for his follow-up interview. He missed that slot as all the dates had disappeared by the time he checked later. He saw the date again this week and booked 4th May He said he kept checking the ceac and cgi randomly in case the status would change to something else, despite being refused, only to discover a change in the date twice

My candid advice...especially fist time applicants, always use your visa for the purpose it was meant, to avoid administrative processing or any form of delay when it's time for your visa renewal. Drop box is a great opportunity which would take a lot of stress and anxiety off your neck so always take advantage of this by playing by embassy's visa rules, now that they're issuing 5 years...that's a lot. Only Canadian embassy had done that once and it was 4 years, Germany did that to me once as well, on a renewed passport. They said I don't have to always come to them, based on my application history. The drop box I had enjoyed for nearly 20 years now, hitch-free. I don't need to see most embassy's faces....just by simply playing by their rules.

Good luck to all in my cousin's shoes.

It was not at all.

letsfarmnigeria:
Was this recognized when u went for your G license because I heard it's only extracts they consider

Landing gist dey only sweet express entry people and students who are leaving Naija for the first time. People who have been separated from their spouses for over three-four years and have traveled to other countries previously would not be so excited about landing gist.

Toceen2022:
Why is it so difficult to get a landing gist on this very SOWP group. With a lot of SOWP approval for couples and families, people should try as much as possible to drop landing gist. The way we all ask questions now and then when processing our application, let's drop information about what was required at the port of entry as well.

The fact is, what officers ask at the port of entry from someone with study permit is totally different from someone with Work Permit and Visit Visa... So, make we dey drop landing gist for SOWP as well. It's not good to just ghost because application has been approved and we've received our stamped passport. Make we do well I beg!

Two weeks max

ediblesz:
Hello, please I need guidance on how you were able to get your renewal done at Ottawa

Not exactly. I used International driver's license for 6 months in Canada

greenverte:
It's mostly called driving record/history.
International driver's license is useless in Canada.

30m + 18k CAD is almost 100k CAD. Why won't they give you the Visa? The truth is Canada is bleeding right now. They need applicants that have the funds to come in. They will approve you fast, just ensure the funds truly belong to you.

ItzRay:
Hello, congratulations on your ppr.
I sent you an email request, please kindly check your email and respond...thanks.

Did you sign as a representative or did your husband sign that he filled the visa forms himself?

Tohmee07:
Good day everyone. My husband and I applied for Canada visitor visa Nov 2020. I did the whole application. Two days ago I received a mail from immigration that my husband was not sincere about his response to if he has been denied a visa by Canada or another country. The truth is he applied for a us visa long before we were married and i didn’t know about it: Like I said earlier I filled the application form for him which I unintentionally denied he was refused any visa. But now I am to reply immigration within 10days to explain. Please any help on how I can reply?

You can do it at the post office as well.

iphenon:
This draft/cheque thing isn't very clear to me. Do I just go to my bank and ask them to raise a draft/cheque for me in the name of the high commission?

You can check this AirbnB below if you want to stay in Brampton or Mississauga temporarily.

https://airbnb.com/h/givemb

I have access to further discounts from the owner, for longer stays. April is fully booked though.

Admit to that and explain with a very detailed reason why it was missed. You can explain that you have applied and received canada visa in the past and you did disclose those refusals in the application.

Take PFL very seriously. You might receive a 5years ban if not answered satisfactorily.

Good luck.

I just checked my form again and I discovered I did not state my Canada rufusal in the past, meanwhile I have been issued Canada visa after that refusal.
I'm about to respond with letter but I need you guys advice first

At that budget in downtown you can only get a shared one that is if you get at all. You can stay in Brampton or Missisuaga

chrisoo:
Hello Guys,

I landed Toronto 2 days ago and am currently staying in an Airbnb around Milton, until April 30, 2023. This is not cheap. Please does anybody have information on very cheap accommodation in Downtown Toronto (arround Toronto School of Management ...22 College Street) where my college is located. Budget is below $800 and I dont mind a shared accommodation from May 1., 2023.
Please any information will be highly appreciated. I don search tire. Its like all the homeowners want guarantors/4-6 months upfront...etc

Thank you
Chrisoo

Which prayer she wan pray wey she no fit kneel down pray for house? Going to Vigil? Interesting. Also note he said they sleep in seperate rooms. Something is not right in that house.

IyaebeTheGreat:
His wife is busy doing her best, going to vigil to pray for her family and all others but unfortunately the horseband has not seen the efforts of his wife but having erection for the wife's sister who obviously has become too carefree with him and see him as a senior brother and a guidian. The countless divorce that uncontrolled penis has caused is uncountable. The breaking of this home is in sight, Yul Edochie is waiting to welcome you to their club with open hands.

I agree with you. My last paid job was around N2.5m per month and that was in 2018.
Even though i do not work yet in Canada but my spouse does and soon i will as well. I still think we live a better life now unlike before. The bills were too much in Naija; Driver, Nanny, Dogs, Estate Security, Diesel for Gen etc.

atutupoyoyo2211:
You are partially right. I say partially because, yes the standards of living are very different, the value of the currency are also very different. But if i use my self as an example, after paying my rent and other bills, I can still save about 55% to 60% of my monthly net income. Meaning, in a year I can save an equivalent of about 40m. If I use your own example, it means I can almost build that 25m house twice in about a year in Nigeria, and conveniently still have a mortgage here. So when you say, I may not be living as well as those in Nigeria, I beg to differ. Cos in addition to all that, in canada roads are good, light and water is available, security is guaranteed to an extent. You can't say that about Nigeria.

I agree with you.

Bahamas95:
Most Nollywood movies are so annoying to watch. I saw my girlfriend watching one yesterday and in the scene an actress was combing her hair. I kept quiet observing what was happening, she spent almost 5minutes combing the hair.

If dem nor get anything to act dem go dey waste mumu time on rubbish just to make the movie long ...... Rubbish!

Rubbish Movie. Wasted 2hrs of my time.

There are a whole lot of crises in Ontario Housing. A landlord told me he had to put up his tenanted house for sale because his monthly mortgage moved from $5700 to about $7400 a month. He tried to increase the total rent he gets from the house to $6400 the tenants are resisting.

Most newcomers especially if you were paying N300K PER ANNUM ($450) for an apartment in Mowe, find it incredible to believe that you can pay $2000 a month for an apartment. It only begins to make sense when you start earning in Canada, which could take up to 3-6 months.

So it is a big problem letting to new comers.

mrkenth:
Hello house .. please I need help .. I am presently in Mississauga as a new PR .. getting 2 bedroom has not being easy .. does anyone know any landlords who has a 2 bed room for rent .. I am ready to pay 6month as a new PR .. I am desperately in need of this.

800 CAD

ope19:
How much is it

It is not even enough to get you a visa.

PubgAvicii:
Nawaooo, what of 3.5 million, I want to travel to Canada for greener pastures.

No. You will receive a seperate and distinct e-mail when the application is opened and everything is in order. That is what is known as AOR.

Makibarbie:
Please does receiving a mail from IRCC stating application to sponsor was received with App no means AOR? Though the applicant is yet to receive any email of such.

For someone with a temporary work permit, and IRCC just commenced the policy of allowing their spouses to have an open work permit, do they apply for SOWP for their spouses, and how about the other dependants coming along, what do they apply for? they are all teenagers. Also will all applications be made under one GCKey?

One bedroom with a shared washroom is available in a 2 bedroom apartment in North York. $900 per month inclusive of bills.

I stayed one day during a trip to New York and was called for physical interview during my IW.

Fyfygal:
There was a period I stayed up to 15weeks.well I think they just pick people at random.there was also a period I spent 4 days.
I think they just pick some people and want them to come physically.I know of some1 that stayed up to 3months +,she wasn’t asked to come for an interview.again it’s over 10yrs I did my 10print.
Don’t know their reasons sha.

Do you want a shared private room in a shared apartment North York?

MOBAN444:
Hello, I am a young professional and an international student from Nigeria currently working in Mississauga. I am in search of a private room in the same area as I am in need of a convenient and comfortable place to stay. As a non-smoker, I do not have any pets, but I am open to living with them if necessary. Thank you for taking the time to consider my request for a room in Mississauga.

Notwithstanding, if anyone knows any agent who can assist should pls share their contact.

If it's a registered IRCC agent or immigration lawyer i will advise you to continue with them.

If you feel you are knowledgeable enough about the process you can do it yourself.

deebee13:
Hello everyone,

Please I have a few questions, and I'm hoping someone here can help me out please.

I recently just got PPR for study visa, to resume in May.
I used an agent, and was told my 10month old baby's application wasn't approved, and they're about to apply for a reconsideration.

These agents have always wasted a lot of time, even after I gave them all the documents they requested for, and that's why I couldn't make September 2022 intake nor January 2023 intake.

I'm having second thoughts using them for the applications of my husband and two sons (4 and 6 years old).

My husband and sons were used as my home tie, so I'm worried about how to navigate that detail if I chose to do their application myself.

Also, is it okay to apply for them now before I leave for Canada in April?



Thank you (in anticipation)
