Lerrrrrrrrrry:
When did you submit ? 26th ?

On Its Way

Scheduled Delivery

Dwebb55:


Please what did it change to?

Yes it changed.

alusiala:
Your UPS status has changed? I don't get

People track your package..It's moving!!!

7weeks - 1st of August..hmmm.

You mean 1st of July. Waiting time is between 7-8 weeks.

Lalatee:
I applied on the 1st if August, sent them an email today(7exactly 7weeks)

They told me to send a reminder in 2weeks.
Which would have made it exactly 9weeks. I am guessing they are processing alot of application this period.

None to the best of my knowledge. Which is very surprising.

alusiala:
Been a while anyone posted about receiving their visa decisions. Have there been any recent visa decisions either positive or negative?

If it says scheduled for delivery on the 15th, must likely means the package is with UPS, since they updated the status of the package. Have you tried calling UPS and confirming your package with the tracking number?

akinonigbinde:
Not yet oooo. Called the visa office yesterday, said I should send a mail which i had done but they said i should alternativelycall back on Monday by 9am if my mail isn't replied. That they only attend to visa issues from Monday to Thursday. I strongly guess the problem/delay is from UPS.
Because shipment ready for UPS/Scheduled for delivery means the embassy have done their part but left for UPS to pick the shipment up/deliver to whatever time they punch into their system.
But no hassle, I think it's a general thing cos nobody on the said dates of 26th have gotten delivery, so it's a general issue.
Bro, let's keep fingers crossed

Got something similar to this without a definite response. I submitted on the 26th and we are clearly in the 8th week. Sigh

Lerrrrrrrrrry:
This embassy is playing with my feelings ... Please is it possible for it to come before this week ends Any idea ? Submitted on the 27th of June and it got to Abuja on the 28th

Did you get it delivered to you on the 15th?

akinonigbinde:
Yea, submitted June 26, got to Abuja 27th and scheduled for delivery August 15.

Any other June submission with scheduled date?

Yes. Shipment Ready for UPS.

Jessiejagajaga:

Have you tried tracking yours with the ups app I submitted 26th June also

26th June

Pelumos:
When did you apply

Yup!

Pelumos:
Is there anyone who applied between 26th of June till like 7th of July

Okay Thanks.

I submitted the same day, I would track mine later today.

Wish you the very best.

Cheers.

akinonigbinde:
Yesterday. Learned should have been delivered earlier in the coming week but the 2 days holiday(Monday & Tuesday)

Did you just track it this morning?.

akinonigbinde:
Yea, submitted June 26, got to Abuja 27th and scheduled for delivery August 15

Course?. Have you applied for a visa?

Pelumos:
I intend going there.

who knows anyone who is currently studying in Athlone Institute of Technology?. or anyone intending to go there?

Please can people share their Visa application experiences whether denial or approval. People just come here to get information and disappear.

I presume your DLI number should begin with letter "O" and the rest numbers. Try it again, should work.

Determinedsoul:




Tnx dear, tried all these but said my DLI wasn't Upton d expected no, didn't know what else to do. So the stuff refused to open

I did a simple search on google to get this information. I hope this will help you and any other applicant who wants to link his\her application online. Cheers!!

Abeg solutions.... Thank you.

Options- Defer your admission.

Advice- Get your Notes. But before your notes arrive, dissect the reasons for refusal by the VO in relation to the documents you submitted. Draw dots to connect the missing pieces in your application and establish them. Start gearing up for a reapplication. Good Luck.

Blessedness456:


Thanks but I figured already and was just pointing it out because that's the first advice given to everyone with a refusal. Please what are my options.

The Notes take about 25 to 30 days Max to get to you via your choice of delivery. 30 days from now is almost December ending, add that to the time of gathering your documents to tackle the reason of refusal. Jan is not possible. It's no brainier!!!.

Blessedness456:
Greetings house. I've been a silent reader on this page unfortunately after I had already submitted my application in October via paper route. I saw mistakes I made and I must admit I realized my SOP was also weak as I had little guidance. Got refused yesterday. Wasn't broken as I am determined to get things right this time. Please is it not too late for me to apply for GCMS note as it takes up to 30 days? Resumption is for January. I am also yet to get the correspondence letter on refusal to know their reasons. I saw the refusal in my CIC account. Please I need your advice and help as I wish to apply as soon as I can. Thank you.

Congrats.. A very interesting read!!

LekwachiJJ:
Hello everyone..Pls pardon my long post. Finally my visa came out today after I submitted my passport on 18th September. I want to give the glory to God and thank everyone here especially those make very insightful contribution, the type that gingerred me to take some steps.

Mine is a strange one. Applied on 11th May. Biometrics on 23rd May. Medicals on 23rd August. Passport request on 18th September. And then everything came to a stand still for over 2 months. Within this period I submitted over 7 CSE webforms and wrote over 10 emails to Lagos VO but got maybe 2 responses. Meanwhile my online status remained at a confusing situation: eligibility review ongoing, meds passed, background check ongoing but application approved and passport requested. By October 18th I received a mail asking me to send in updated bank statement in a new format: bank statement request ticket plus password. My bank had not implemented this new format and so gabe me a cover letter to add to the normal statement. And then nothing again.

My last webform was responded to with the story that my application was in London. I wrote London last week and complained about the restriction of my movement for other personal and business travels outside of Canada with the continued with holding of my passport. London responded that my application has been approved since September and that they are aware my passport was dropped at VFS, can I go to VFS for "printing of your visa". So confusing! VFS does not print visas. Even then my many visits there revealed thar my passport was at the embassy.

Finally yesterday morning as I was driving to Anifowose instead of VFS as directed I got a call to attend an interview this morning. I was there by 6 am and by 8.30 I sat in front of an officer who told me my bank statements were not clear or legible. This is bery untrue as I scanned them myself. After barely looking through the updated statements I brought he asked me to wait for 10 minutes and in exactly 10 minutes my passport came out with my visa!

I applied to study MA Communication in UOttawa. My first degree ia in Pol Science, over 27 years ago. I had an MBA since 2001 and am a very mature appliacant. My SOI stated that after working in communication for over 2 decades I needed to retire to academics by studying in Canada and merging my long practical experience with serious academic scholarship for the benefit of my future students.

Document attached:
1. Acceptance letter and Statement of Intent
2. Dom account statement with over 100kUSD
3. TD acount statement with 40kCAD
4. Letter of employment, payslips
5. Travel history to Canada, US, UK, SA, etc
6. Scanned passport data page ( passport valid till 1st June 2019. So while waiting I applied for renewal and added the new passport via webform and email).

I did not add any property or evidence of family ties beyond what I filled in the family information form. Just the above.

Bottom line while waiting, I prayed and fasted like never before especially after I was told my application was in London.

My admission was deferred to Winter with the kind understanding of my faculty and I will be travelling by God's grace before new year. My testimony I did not lose faith in the power of God despite the odds against me as shown in many of the tesimonies and feedback in this forum especially about long gap from last degree

I pray everyone here will have a good story to tell and bery very soon in Jesus name. Amen.

Paper route ..7th week. You will hear from them soon. It will end with praise.

Alinkoo:
Today makes my Paper Route application the 7th week.

Submitted on the 9th of Oct.

Biometric Validity received on the 19th of Nov.

Till date no Medical mail yet.

School resumes 7th of January.

God I am believing in you and also praying for everyone here for MIRACLE to happen oooo...

Congrats to you @LekwachiJJ
