Mmesomamichael: Please since I have gotten my counterfoil and LOI But still haven't gotten any mail from VFS stating my passport is ready for collection and how to make payment, I have sent countless mails and called but I'm unable to speak with a Canada agent, please do you suggest I make the courier service payment now And send receipt of payment and the consent form to the VFS global? If you paid two-way courier and you're sure it's at the embassy, I suggest you contact the courier, give them the return way bill number and ask them to pic it up for you. Might work, but if you didn't use two-way courier then try to speak with the agent for further instruction. May we be delivered from Nigeria stress soon. The last stress is at MMI Airport with those immigration guys and anyhow bribe. |

Hollyholy: Hi guys, Please which college can I apply to for a graduate certificate without using their agent? Also is registering through Ontario colleges compulsory? Which school can I apply to directly? Pls help! Apply through Ontario colleges, you can apply to Conestoga College, loyalist College. I think for centinial college you can apply direct. Not sure of other provinces. You can check New Brunswick Community College, I think you can apply direct and it's also affordable. But they have just one intake a year plus competition is high and higher now with the introduction of new PR process for Students. |

JustMellow: Hello Lekiboboe,
Has she confirmed if Conestoga accepts HND into their PGD programs? Not all colleges accepts HND.
To your question, SOR is acceptable. However, the best way to find out in regards to the Transcript is to contact the DLI directly.
Cheers! Yes they do accept HND from Nigeria. Conestoga College recognises HND even without evaluation,I am sure of Distinction, Upper Credit and Lower Credit but I am not sure of "Pass" to secure admission. |

kesiana: Hello everyone . Pls I need your help . I have gotten my admission and paid my tuition for university of regina. I submitted my app on sept 5 and got a denial a week after . Based on 3 counts :1- he isn’t satisfied I will return based on my purpose of visit . 2: he wasn’t satisfied I will return based on the limited employment prospects in your country of residence . 3: he wasn’t satisfied I will leave based on personal assets and financial status. I was made aware I made some mistakes in my first app cause I used myself as sponsor and I am an enterpreneur . I’m presently planning to reapply, this time using my mom as my sponsor. Is there anything I strongly need to add as have been seeing tax clearance and pls keep in mind am an entrepreneur , no employer . Pls I will appreciate any form of help as am new to the forum . Thank you so much
One more thing . I googled how to get a detailed gcms notes , it’s saying you have to be a Canadian citizen , dunno how true or if there’s another way . Thank you Google gcmbuddy, you'll see how to get it, but it takes between 25days and 35days to get it. For $12 |

Lekiboboe: Good evening honorables
I want to ask a question,
Can one use an HND Statement of Result to apply for Admission in a College ?
In this context, I got a friend who wants to apply to Conestoga College, she only has her STATEMENT OF RESULT , No transcript yet
Can she go ahead ?
Thanks Honourable Lekiboboe, I am not sure she'll get it When I applied I attached everything but a friend of mine also applied with statement of result with explanation that he just graduated, they asked he to get his HND 1 (1st and 2nd) + HND 2 (1st Semester) directly from the school. He applied for Supply Chains Management. So I don't think he/she would get it, may they may get a conditional offer of acceptance pending a complete documentation. |

Jesusrules24: It has ended in praise!
I sent my passport November 5th to Abuja VFS via, DHL.... 2 way courier.
About 3 - 4 days later, I got the acknowledgement from VFS.
And then I got an email saying my passport was sent to Lagos. (Which I didn't understand since I sent to Abuja.) I received several other emails, counterfoil and letter of introduction.
Long story short, I received my passport yesterday via DHL.
I didn't have to call or send a message to VFS.
If you can, send your passport to Abuja VFS. Lagos VFS seems to be wasting too many people's time.
It shall end in praise for us all in Jesus Name. Congratulations bro |

Hello fellow Canadian dreamers,
Please I need a clarification, imy passport has been submitted to the embassy for stamp. I am a first time applicant, I paid UPS two-way courier service.
When my passport is returned to Vfs, will I still pay that N11,300? Will my two-way courier be honored? If yes, will it cause a delay contacting UPS for pickup?
Please I need clarification so as to prepare.
Thanks in anticipation |

fratermathy: The Abuja offices of VFS and IRCC seem to be saner. We can't say the same of the Lagos office. This was why I advised people to use the Abuja office. My advice still stands for anyone who gets their PPR. An extra amount for package transmission shouldn't be an issue if you want quick results. For those still waiting on the Lagos IRCC office to stamp their passports, my advice is that you should mail the High Commissioner directly or raise a webform to their central office (at Ottawa).
To answer your question, Eilenora, I don't think you'll pay again for return courier but kindly confirm from them. Their rules seem to be changing every minute these days. Contact details for the high commissioner |
