Can you please give an insight into the documents you presented for tourism? Thanks a lot

Oladim001:
Looks like they're no longer giving visas up to the length of your passport expiry date.
Via the tracker, saw its only valid for 6months.

mhoreh:
Hello everyone

Please I’m filling my application on the new portal and it’s asking for National Identity Document which I’m providing my NIN for but the challenge is, it’s asking for expiry date which our NIN doesn’t have

Please what do I provide in that space ?

Milito:
I guided my Bro in filling his form and convinced him to use the old IRCC.

I nudged him to use the old IRCC site in order to have an opportunity to compare both the old and new as I recently did my own application on the new IRCC site.
Submitted 29th July
Biometrics 30th July

This person is a frequent traveller with valid US, UK and Schengen visas but 1st time applicant to Canada.

Further timelines will be shared for the sake of enriching the platform with information. Before submitting, estimated processing time for visitor visas applied for in Nigeria was 47 days.

Afolavid:
Wow, thank you very much for the detailed post. I'm not in Lagos/Abuja at the moment, so I won't be able to go in person. For the courier method, I didn't do biometrics cuz I have my old biometrics from years ago on file, so I don't have any document stamped by VFS, I also read that I have to pay for the package transmission fee and all that, but the VFS Global website isn't even working; it's quite confusing.

Afolavid:
Good morning everyone,

Please, I'd appreciate a breakdown of the process for submitting a passport for stamping.

Thanks

ekepo:
Good day everyone,

My aunt received her Canadian visitor visa approval in December 2024. However, last week, she was denied boarding her flight to Canada. She was advised to contact the embassy to find out the reason.

Has anyone here experienced a similar situation? If so, how was it resolved?

Thank you in advance for your help.

@ Milito, When clicking the save and next button, I do not have a problem navigating. I am on the last page where I uploaded all the documents. After uploading, I got stuck because the payment button was not activated, hence I couldn't make a payment or submit.

But THE FEES I HAVE TO BE HAVE ALREADY BEEN CALCULATED AND THE AMOUNT SHOWN WITH THIS EXPLANATION{THE FEES SHOWN IS AN ESTIMATE BASED ON THE FEES IN EFFECT ON THE DAY THE PERSONAL REFERENCE CODE IS USED. THE ACTUAL FEES TO BE PAID WILL BE CALCULATED ON THE DATE OF SUBMISSION}

AT THE UPLOAD SECTION, THE MESSAGE I GOT THERE IS {UPLOADED BUT NOT SUBMITTED TO IRCC

agabusta:
Plz what is upload size for the old site

hayyawithme:
I am using the OLD version because I am applying for myself and my family.

Please, MALITO, I HAVE SENT A MESSAGE

When you continue clicking save/next up to the payment page, is there a specific error message?

Which page precisely are you stuck on?

hayyawithme:

I NEED HELP BOTH ONLINE AND OFFLINE PLEASE

Ifasanya2022:
is it advisable for someone to move to Canada with a visitor visa and convert it to work visa

bcolat21:
Good day everyone. So I'm here for advice, the visa above was denied and the reason they gave for the denial made no sense. The purpose of visit was to attend their child and brother's wedding. 2 parents and 2 siblings aged between 19 and 25 were invited with 59 year old parents.

What date exactly is the expiry date showing

Cashmadam:
Oga, what exactly is your point?

Can you please stop using your so called travel history to mock others?

I'm sure you were also a local champion not too many years ago....

By the way, the airport is called London Stansted Airport. Not Stansted London...

Efetobore1980:
Benin Republic , and Togo are international travels, so when they cannot help your travel history, how will traveling to UK, Kenya and Dubai help you ?

The U.S. embassy has changed the game. They knows that many average and wealthy Nigerians can travel anywhere and come back to their embassy in order to come and claim good travel histories.

Ipso facto, a person with a genuine and reasonable travel history to South Africa, Uganda, and Tunisia, will have a visa success than a person who have traveled for fun to Canada, Australia, and Japan.

■■ Therefore, the U.S B1/B2 visas are no more about good travel histories. It is now about the satisfaction of all requirements, which includes psychological assessment of your personality and genuine intention.

Note: Genuine intention of visa applicant is what eventually determines your visa even when you are not qualified or when you are over qualified, but only the interviewing visa officer can determine that.

Note: Lack of good communication skills or how to express oneself in the presence of the consular is the 2nd tool. Many visa applicants unknowingly sounded like a braggart. Some sounded like a would-be terrorist eg i hate Nigeria. When you hate Nigeria, you will eventually hate America. Lastly, many visa applicants feel uneasy as soon as they face the visa officer. All these mentions surpasses personal credentials in assessment of U.S visa success. 👍

cris83:
How much did you pay for visa fee in naira?

Jane8999:
Update
They denied the visa
It was at Abuja embassy
They denied almost 10 people before me
One thick black American lady like that


She asked me my purpose of travel , where I am travelling to, my job, how much I earn and if I have travelled outside Nigeria

And then denied me


Well I plan on travelling to other countries before applying again
I have only travelled to Benin republic and Togo

I plan on travelling to uk,Kenya and Dubai

Then I will apply again

Update

ajibolag:
Does France and UK visa qualify for super visa processing timeline? I don’t think so but I may be wrong.

Super Visa is a type of Canadian visitor visa that allows parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens and permanent residents to visit Canada for extended stays, up to 5 years at a time, with multiple entries permitted over a 10-year period. It's designed to facilitate family reunification and allows for longer visits compared to a standard visitor visa.
