Hello everyone,

I would like to share details of a recent visa denial with you, with the hope that I can get some guidance. I am a canadian PR working in the US, while my fiancee who applied and got denied a canada vistor's visa is based in Nigeria. She has a sister who is a canadian citizen, who invited her. She has applied for a visitors visa twice and got denied on both occasion. The first was last year when she requested to come spend time with her sister, she was denied stating she did not have enough economic and financial ties in Nigeria. ps-she provided her 6 months pay slip, letter from employer stating she is going on leave, and bank statements then.

For the recent denial, she was already engaged to me, but we thought it was better the sister still invites her, as they have legal association. We only plan to have our wedding in Canada, during this visit, before she finally moves to the US. To support the application this time around, we provided purchased return tickets, letter of leave from employer, pension statements, tax returns, shares documents, proof of address in Nigeria, letter of introduction from church, family photos, past travel documents, and invitation letter from her sister, as well as her sister's bank statements. However, the visa was still denied. I have now requested GCMS notes and I plan to reapply myself stating that she wants to come for our wedding which is scheduled for July. I wanted to know what we are doing wrong and what steps could be taken to ensure that we meet the July date for her to be in Canada.

Thank you all for your help.
Another visa denied loading....
Too much of reapplication is not the way forward.

Come to Nigeria for your wedding and file for her, that's the only way forward.
My opinion thou
Peace out

Well, such is life - women being hypergamous as they've always been. Young men should just focus on their craft and health. Nothing else. As I told Tensazangetsu20, a significant proportion of Nigerians who japa'd in recent years will be single for eternity aka no husbands or wives.
Who is even dating those ones

They always believe they are doing you a favour by dating them

Hello Fam, Please how long does Background check take for TRV? it shows Background Check in progress for over 1 month and Eligibility shows " Not assessed yet" My application is quite an urgent one because my wife is sick in Canada, I also have a baby and she's Canadian too, my wife is due for a major surgery and I was invited by the hospital to be with her. How do I expedite this?
Unfortunately if it's visit visa you applied for, IRCC no send, it will go through the normal processing time and those letter won't help either.

Thank you to everyone that contributed to the discussion. I reached out to a friend regarding the issue and during the convo, a thought came into my head, to send her a document that shows I'm being asked to leave Canada and I need the money to book flight etc... This is supposed to be the last line of action before I involve the parents tomorrow and so on. I sent in a WP application which was refused and told her I've been asked to leave, after backs and forth, it worked. She sent the money!!! Thank you
Very smart move.... Na man you be.

Now it's your turn to block her forever

It looks like the naira is gradually regaining its rightful value, as market conditions and economic factors begin to stabilize, allowing it to strengthen against the USD

Boss man

If she's not willing to give you the money, just move on, otilor

Learn not to trust that gender with money.

She have already make up her mind to eat your money even before you travel out.
She's dating you for the value not the love.

Note. You can only use force to collect the money if you both had an written agreement to that effect but if not hmmmm 🤐

We were dating (in a serious relationship, planning marriage this year) until we had a resolvable issue earlier this month but she doesn't want a resolution. She'd rather block me everywhere instead and move on. For context, I'm not asking for any single thing that I gave her back but she kept some money for me and we had a dialogue about it, that's what I'm trying to get back.
You trust woman with money? Ok o

Hello good morning investors.
For treasury bill investors with GT, I observed I no longer get the summary of by investments in my monthly statement, and it is also no longer appearing on my internet platform. I have written letters to CC, spoke with my account officer all with a promise it will be worked on, all to no avail. I don't know what's going on.

Please other GT users are you having the same issue? huh huh
Same here o
Since they upgraded their system, it has been a mess.

The TB investment is no longer showing
However, I believe it's nothing to worry about.

I'm just waiting for the maturity date.

Please disregard any negative comments. The majority of individuals, particularly Nigerians in Canada, often face significant challenges, as many are on low wages and struggle to make ends meet. However, having come from societies where they experienced oppression, they tend to view their new life in Canada as a great improvement, even if it still comes with its own difficulties. For many, the contrast to their previous circumstances leads them to perceive even modest progress as a valuable opportunity, despite facing racism, health challenges, and a lower quality of life in Canada, as they have already come to view suffering as a way of life grin
Haha 😳

Canada Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly, Public Safety Minister David McGuinty, and Immigration Minister Marc Miller are all in the U.S. capital, making a final diplomatic push, begging Republican lawmakers and Trump’s team to sway the president. Trump has signaled he’s prepared to impose 25% tariffs on Canadian imports as early as Saturday.

Please ,But what happened to a great country like Canada that it seems unable to survive economically without the U.S., despite all the immigrants pouring in yearly? What is happening to Canada's economy that some people are now calling from Canada, asking for money from people in Nigeria? What's going on with the job market in Canada? some of us are still planning to relocate to Canada ,make person no go sell his properties and business and go face Shege pro max in Canada!!!
Canada economy go hear am seriously

People planning relocation to Canada should better chill for now and think twice.

Drove it back home, made sure to not go above 2000rpm. Temperature stabilized below the middle mark. Checked the radiator and it had lost some amount of water </= 1 liter. I have resolved to park the vehicle at home until I’m buoyant enough to get a new engine as advised. So painful cry
Better

That your engine has been seriously dealt with.

Save for a new engine.

Even the manufacturer cannot revive that engine
