I was denied in 2023. and I just give a space of exact 2 years no to show any kind of desperation

Was the visa granted in 2023 when you applied?

olasubomy:
Please Ola I was trying to round up my Canada VV application and I noticed at the time of submitting the application there is no where they ask me to upload my Fund/acct statement .Just my data and US visa .Then the second part where there is employment letter , when I click at the Icon it only requested for an employment letter from a company that want to hire me from Canada which I don't understand and another space where they asked me to upload my consent personal information. Am confused, I attached the page here for you to see and advise.
I was searching where to upload document like Hotel accommodation, flight reservation, bank statement etc. but could not see such page kindly advise .Thanks

Thanks so much Ola
Hi,

Proof of Funds:

The documents requested on your IRCC Portal (per screenshot) are based on the responses you have provided which proof of funds is not a mandatory requirement and this must be because you are a holder of a valid US Non-immigrant visa. However, that does not mean you cannot still provide it if you think it helps your case.

A good option would be to get mybankstatement certificate from your bank (its a one-pager document) and upload that on "Additional Document" section as this would save you time of having to compress so many pages of printed bank statements. The Additional Document section is provided on the Portal in case of any other information the applicant in his/her judgement would help their case with the Consulate.

In the event you think there is need for clarification, you can draft a Personal Statement (in formal letter style) addressed to Deputy High Commission of Canada and explain any other information you want to bring to the officer's attention. Though having a valid US visa does not guarantee approval, it gives some credibility to your immigration record (especially if you have used the visa i.e travel record in and out of the US) as Canada relies a lot on the United States intelligence and because of the risk assessment system between both countries.

Employer Letter

What you see is an explanatory notes using Canada as an example but i understand it could be confusing due to how it is worded. That section requires confirmation of employment from your current employer in Nigeria.

Consent (Personal Information):

Please ignore this section. This is only required if you have an IRCC consultant representing you or applying on your behalf.

All the best!

Thanks so much Olasubomi I quiet appreciate your time

CAN+, as I understand it, is a program that offers expedited processing to applicants who have previously travelled to Canada in the last 10years and complied with visa conditions or who hold a valid US visa at the time of Canadian visitor visa application. I am not aware of a distinct portal for CAN+, but once you file your application on the IRCC portal, there is a questionnaire that would ask "if you hold a valid non-immigrant USA visa", which would require a "Yes" response since you possess that. This would be part of the required documents for you to upload to the IRCC system portal.

With that, your application will be visible to the processing officer of your US Visa status.
