It's true, that is why we need to get it now and keep it even if our travel will 2 or 3yrs time. Delay is dangerous

That's just it

Good job, good pay, yet it is not always about money? 😁

Well, the travel history part caught my attention . Travel history doesn’t really matter. Canada is my first trip. I’ve never traveled outside Nigeria before. Not even to Cotonou.

You can't have billions in your account and except a visa from Canadian embassy easily expecially if you cannot prove the source.

You are just lucky to get that visa without any tangible travel history.
Canada visa application used to be the hardest over the years ago, seems the Canadian government are trying to achieve something.

Just be happy that you are lucky and applied at the right time.

Goodday Everyone,
Please i booked A FLIGHT from Lagos to winnipeg (British Airways). My itinerary is Lagos - London Heathrow and London Gatwick - Vancouver. Now i'm having a challenge cos in my flight itinerary i'm gonna need to change my airport when i get to London and it was recently i realized that and i was told i need to get a transit visa if i would be changing airport but i don't have a transit visa and my Flight is scheduled for on the 31st of august. Please is there anyone that can advise me on what to do or can help me out of this situation. Thank you

I hope your ticket is refundable? Cos you will definitely need a transit visa.

Applying for UK transit visa is not even an option for now.
When is your resumption date?

Dear Gurus,

Please I noticed LOI on the portal for the SOWP application for Spouse and Study Permit applications for the older kids but no LOI for the Visit Visa application for the youngest kid who's just 1 year old. Please is it normal that VV applications don't get LOI? Others got LOIs except for the infant. Kindly advise before I start firing webforms ooo.

IRCC don't send LOI for visit/tourist visa holder

Mis3man:
Hello bro good evening plz I would like to know a few things about Canada and what could be some of the challenges for a first time comer

What do you want to know?

Once you have multiple plans, I believe you will overcome all challenges as a first timer.

Will only advice you to come with a very strong winter jacket, winter is just some months away, and the jacket is not cheap....

Pezooflagos:
Pls everyone, how much can it cost a poor guy like me to run a Visit visa myself and what way can I take pls. I need guideline please

Canada visa is not always about money.
Do you have a decent profile?
Good job, good pay, properties?
Any travel history?

OkoyeAka:
I got a message from DHL port harcourt that i have a package, am not expecting anything except my passport. I will share my story just need to have the stamp passport in my hand.

When did you submit your passport?

DHL do not partner with VFS and not sure if they return a decision envelope, only UPS.

Update us when you get to DHL office pls

House34:
People with visitor visa are not new comer...visitors dey get money to enjoy pass newcomers😀

That guy na permanent resident visitor 😂😁

House34:
A room in a shared apartment yes (1000-1400) with shared bathroom but if you mean self contain like a studio apartment then be ready you renting btw 2000 to 3000 minimum ..house not cheap in toronto!

You are very correct.

I gave him the cheapest he can get with a room shared apartment.

Won't recommend a studio apartment for a new comer looking for a cheap accomodation

Munachimso30:
Thanks 😊
But how much is one room selfcon right there in Ontario

A room apartment you mean?

Budget 1,000 - 1,400cad

Munachimso30:
Wow
How’s does it look like there? 😁
Believing that mine will come out soon

It's cool over here.

Wish you all the best

Munachimso30:
Do you live in Canada ?

Yes

North York, Ontario

Munachimso30:
I really appreciate thanks 🙏🏻

🤜🤛

Munachimso30:
Yeah talking about this accommodation because this is one of the thing he’s pointing finger at
He doesn’t have relatives there and can’t afford hotel for that one month
Can rented apartment (one room selfcon) work as prove of accommodation too if yes, how can he go about it ?

He should go on bookings dot com and rent a guest house.
It will be a lil bit cheaper

Munachimso30:
Are they gonna check the debit card to know if there’s enough funds in it ?
Someone told me that at least 2500CAD is okay for someone that intend to stay for a month, how true is this?

Yes they can check but in rare case.

Your friend should just hold money and confirmed accomodation

Grupo:
It's like your alternator is going bad.

I suspect battery.

I've experienced that before

overlord77:
Thanks everyone. I submitted today at DHL office. Paid 11k5 for delivery to VFS Lagos. Then another 20k250 to VFS Global logistics for return delivery to me. Transmission fee was not paid since I still have a valid Biometric, which i did in 2017

I hope VFS send your passport to IRCC.
In your case, I believe you need to pay for the transmission fee.

I really doubt if 2017 biometric enrollment will waive transmission fee.

Munachimso30:
A friend of mine asked me to get info for him from here but no one responded to my question yet
What are other documents needed at Canada point of entry as a visitor visa holder to avoid deportation ? 🤷‍♂️

Return ticket
Confirmed hotel booking or invitation letter.
Some cash and debit card with enough fund.
That's all and be ready to answer some questions according to what you filled in your application form.

MrALIVE:
unfortunately I don't have the email that was used for the application...the agent also feels so relaxed about the whole thing,he keeps saying that the passport will be delivered to him that I should stop being in a hurry or rushing things...the truth is that I am a bit worried cos this passport was forwarded to VFS since 7th July and the tracker message is saying passport couriered to courier service partner on the 24th of July... you see why I am worried and restless.

If you don't have access to the email.
I think your agent might have your passport with visa handy already, I hope you are not owing him any balance?
Courier services dont take this long.

Viking07:
Please do I need a transit visa to enter Frankfurt? My stop overs are Ethiopia/Germany then Toronto? Because I tried checking in online and it keeps asking for German visa 🤷‍♂️

Nope

German transit visa not required.
How long is your layover in Germany

dealhunter:
Thank you so much boss for this useful info,you 💯 correct,the guy that crossed from Mexico to USA said something like that,he said most of his friends that crossed the same time into USA did not seek asylum in d USA, they moved to Canada immediately, because, Canada immigration can grant their asylum in two yrs.....but wetin person go they eat,or how person is going to survive for two yrs if you cannot do any pety pety jobs?....abi person can seek for asylum in Canada, sneak into d USA,dey hustle,then,when Canada asylum request is been granted, person can now settle down permanently in Canada!?what do you think about that?

Crossing from Brazil - Mexico- USA- Canada is easier said than done.
It's extremely difficult.

Meanwhile of recent, Canada signed something with the USA not sure what it is but it's an agreement not to allow illegal immigrant cross into Canada anymore through land border.
Approval for asylum seeker in Canada is now 5%.

Research very well on asylum part before making any decision.

Ive said my own.... We move 🚶

Viking07:
He spent all he had to the last $200. That’s all he’s got left.

$200.

Damn....
That will be tough, I hope he's old enough to bear the experience cos It won't be funny o.

Toronto base in the house should pls help.

blackgold2018:
what causes the malfunction mostly

Overheating cause it most time

blackgold2018:
Please am having issues with my car.

The low oil red light at the dashboard keep showing up.

I have changed oil to no avail. It keeps showing the low oil sign.

Is my engine damaged?

Most likely Camshaft bearing problem

Tricia14:
Hello house, pls I have many questions to ask about Canada but allow me to start with this:
In USA, loan is everything. Most of them carry school loan and pay till old age; some to buy car which can be paid for 5yrs; to buy house which can be paid more than 20yrs and even carry loan just to go for vacation. And these loans are transferred to their children to complete payment when they are dead.
And I read, that the average American can only safe $5k in a yr which will not be enough for anything. Pls, is Canada like that?
Thanks for your answers.

YES

USA is even better.
In short, mostly all the western countries are like that. That's their way of life

sunkanmi2211:
Please give me a response
I need to know if I need to pay student visa before I travel please

Student visa? Or school tuition fee?

justmoveglobal:
Turkish airways is one of the cheapest airline to travel with

absolutely correct

Yekebu:
Yes, you do.
Any stop in the UK or US requires a transit visa

Holder of valid canadian visa do not need visa to transit through the UK.
But transiting via USA, transit visa is needed.

Mrsam12:
Please how can i get one my flight is next week saturday

I'm repeating it again.
Do not be mislead.

You do not need a transit visa if flying British airways, once you hold a valid canadian visa

.

Filldgrace:
Hello,

Pls is a transit visa needed for Lufthansa via Frankfurt to the UK if one has a Canadian immigrant visa (the one entry PR visa).

won’t be relocating to Canada till early next year but plan to visit the UK (I have a UK visa)

Has anyone been in similar situation or have an idea?

You do not need a transit visa since you currently hold a valid canadian visa

Mrsam12:
Good day fam.

Transit visa not required
