MOKENN:


Maybe the Courier Charge.
We have not been able to confirm if VFS honors courier return envelopes.

Did you write your name and Email address on the copies of your passport info page?


Judging by the level of coordination displayed by VFS Lagos in particular so far, I doubt if they will be able to locate and use return envelopes when passports return from IRCC processing.

I want to confirm to us that VFS Lagos is honouring return envelopes. I just got an update from DHL that they've picked up my parcel for delivery. I am expecting it before the end of tomorrow.

Sleekigboguy:


The date is 11th november, i paid 7650 and i attached alot of documents.. my passport, my data page, consent form, PPR, biometric slip..

What could i have missed??

I really need your help guys

Oluoxide2:
Have been following this thread for sometimes now, in fact am really impressed with the way people tend to assist each other by providing information needed at the right time.

I want professionals in the house to help me look at my scenario, my chances of later getting PR.

Due to the fact that Canada don't accept 2.2, i intend going through PGD which is a year course, please,
will i be allowed to work during that one year course if i was given a year Visa?

what are my chances of staying back after my program, does it worth it going through this way?

Thanks.

You'll be allowed to work during studies.
You'll have only one year pgwp after completion.
You may have to extend your permit n follow up with another one year program to earn you a 3yr pgwp.
This will qualify you to apply for PR.

I hope I'm right sha.

Godsblessings:
how much did U pay?

12570

[quote author=Godsblessings post=96070111][/quote]

Counterfoil is found under documents before you reach messages section.

It shows your validity period.

I paid by bank transfer and sent evidence and filled courier consent for via email to vfs

Godsblessings:
I think what we need to do is to go to VFS global website on the top right corner, click the menu, select buy service, you will see the amount for return courier services and transit there , account no to pay is there also, make payment, and send your receipt of payment, detailed address to return the travel docs, tracking id , full name, passport no, date of birth, to their email . Though I'm about to do it as well. Best of luck everyone but still expecting the experience ones here to explain better

Yea I have done this, and there was an auto reply.

How ever some people claimed that 2way is working and thus no need to pay the N12570. But nobody has gotten stamped passport back yet. Earliest returns will be by Tuesday since dispatch is Mondays and Wednesdays. I paid on Friday so did many others.

Latest Wednesday the situation will be clearer.

I have seen counterfoil in IRCC account.
No Letter of Introduction ( Some people also claim to have gotten this)

Hello guys,

I'm a newbie in this academic pursuit.

I got my admission letter couple of days back for fall academic session. Admission confirmation deposit is paid and I plan to apply for the study permit at the end of Q1, 2021 in order to sufficiently meet the 4 months SOA.

I don't reside in Nigeria and it's a family of three things

Your suggestions and answers to my questions will highly be appreciated. Thanks

Regards.

Welcome.

Take your time to read through the parts of the thread. Personally I scanned through all before even joining. It was worth it.

Meanwhile you didn't ask any questions.

Lemme then ask you. Which school admitted you and when did you submit your application?

Please who has gotten Letter of Introduction or POE letter?

(Not Biometric Correspondence letter)

When is it supposed to drop?

Onweke:
Is it possible for a student visa to be approved without paying initial tuition deposit ?

Yes

Tracy2020:


It’s on their website. I don’t know if I can post the link here.
Under VFS services, you’ll see Courier service then Courier services available at the Visa Application Centre for return of your passport at the address provided, there’s a link to the table.

Pls write the website, I need to check it out.

LordAA:

Alright.
Thank you.
Mine changed on Wednesday but I'm yet to receive the letter of introduction.

Pls which one is letter of introduction?

I only got "other" after PPR.

Then I got counterfoil and status changed to approved.

Where is the letter of introduction supposed to be found pls?

JustMellow:


Hello MOKENN,

If you feel you can't catch up with classes at this time, and the school is hell-bent on their decision, the only option is to either reapply for same or closely related program on the ground if the admission is cancelled or check else where for similar or related program.

Your application has been approved, so no worries.

All the best

Thanks @Justmellow
Please any idea of schools with relatively easy admission MEng?

Tracy2020:


This is not true. You pay for return courier based on your location.

I asked earlier o.

And the feedback was that the N12,570 was a flat rate.

Please where did you find this table?

Pls this N11, 310 for Passport return, is it a flat rate minding where the destination is?

Pls those who got sir info from vfs pls confirm.

Chocs:
Apply immediately to other institutions for a similar course.

When you secure admission, you’ll inform IRCC of the change in institution.

Thanks Chocs,
So that will be for Fall 2021...that's the earliest open intake now

BlegendE:
Sent

Thanks. received

Good morning house,

I got a mail from my school declining my request to defer my admission to January.

I could not start in September due to the delay in the processing and approval of the permit.

Now my study permit is already approved and will expire end of next yr.

Pls advice me on what to do in this situation.

Thanks.

Cc.

I have the consent form now. Feel free to beep me

Please did you have to tell them your preferred address first or is the bill a flat rate?

Secondly could you please send me the courier form by mail or upload the pdf document so we can get to download?

Okchimaobi(at)gmail.com

Thanks a lot

Dampops:
You can try to reach them on phone to let them know you got a notification that your passport has been returned by IRCC to their office (VFS)...they will immediately send you the return mail. It comes with another consent form which I’ll attach. You’ll be asked to pay N11,310 to their Sterling Bank account.
You will attach the debit advice and the newly filled consent form and send back to them via email . They dispatch mails on Mondays and Wednesdays; so try to do everything tomorrow so your passport can go with Monday’s batch.

Hope this helps everyone that’s expecting his passport back...

This was really helpful.

When he checked the 'Buy Service' icon on their website, he discovered that the cost of the in-house one way courier is #12,500. He is planning to pay tomorrow so he can get his passport returned ASAP.

Yea.
I just checked n saw same.

But after paying into the account, do you have any idea how to present proof of payment to them?

FariDk67:
Good day
Please have you been contacted by VFS again and were you asked to pay any fees for In-house courier service for your passport to be returned.

There's another set of mails from them but none stated that we should pay or what amount to be paid.
However they mentioned that it will be delivered by vfs in-house courier service.

I wish everyone looking forward to immigrate to Canada on this platform a SUCCESS.
I'm glad to know that this platform still exist.
Don't get tired, share experience with one another, be optimistic.....Trust me on this...Y'all will get here in no time.
Most of my fellow monikers back then that we pushed together through Part 11 are all here...we hooked up, had fun and all.
This information is more like a Feedback looking back through the tough time.

I pray that at one point in time your life, you'd have reasons to come back and say a few words to encourage people that are going through this same process on this platform....Amen!!

Thanks boss. We appreciate your encouragement
