Help! My cousin recently got his visa to Canada based on the family exemptions. It is urgent that he travels this September, but he he isn't fully vaccinated yet, he has only had the first dose. Is there any way he can travel without being fully vaccinated? Is there a way to get the "vaccine card" in lagos just for the trip/

Am about to apply for visit visa ,Please nairalanders , I need guide on the following:

1. How to prove ties on my late dad property as am the one taking care of the property( collecting rents and generally doing maintance when needed).
2. I have tricycles which I gave out on daily pay basis. How do I prove this since its not a registered business.
Thanks you all.

I submitted the webform on September 8 and got the acknowledgment mail. Was about preparing to reapply when I saw this update yesterday. I’m confused as to next step to take. Wait this out or re-apply. I’m thinking I wait for 2 weeks and then re-apply.

TBDL:

He can travel.

My mum recently came; when she left Nigeria she did not even get a single dose. But she had to do the full quarantine.

Since he is not fully vaccinated, he has to do the full quarantine and covid test on arrival.

He should check the cic travel guide for more information.

Op’s cousin most likely qualify under the extended family option. The cousin might have a sibling that lives in Canada.

Your cousin is not your extended family as per IRCC definition of extended family, so you would have to wait like every other person.

So you know, IRCC don’t really care about travel dates. They give visas when they feel your application is right.

Hope for the best!

My sister is over there so I guess I can apply since I qualify under extended family member but my question is that if I apply with my kids, will it work too. They are minors.

How do you even think or imagine this kind of thing let alone posting it on an opensource forum

It's impossible because the vaccine is verifiable both medical and from dere website......just say the truth about your true status all u need is covid test and quarantine

According to cic, you qualify as extended family not your kids whether they are minor or not.

Moreover, you guys can apply using the regular route even the extended family thing is not a right but a privilege and you can be denied too.

Hello TBDL,
Please can you explain in detail what you mean by qualifying for a COVID-19 exemption? I did my biometrics since March 5 and now this. Kindly explain in detail

2 ways that come to mind that could answer or match the statement " you already told us that you qualify for a COVID-19 exemption"
a. during your visitor visa application, you must have indicated "other-COVID-19" under your purpose of travel
b. you must have also informed IRCC through the "webform link/ email" informing them of how you qualify for the non-discretionary travel criteria.

Others can also chip in. check through previously attached link for more detailed info.

p.S your surest bet on any info put out here is to match it with info you find on IRCC website.

It's possible but rare... It happens only if at that point in time there isn't anyone available to do the job in that province, and the employer has to resort to other means through LMIA and sorts.

Did you send a webform? what is their response? if it is Visit visa you should still be under processing time. It was 500 days early this year but has reduced to 303 days, so you might not hear from them pretty soon.

I have checked the guidelines for webform which states that, if I am still under processing I don't need to ask or write, cos I may not be attended to.

Please is that correct?

Thanks

Please do you mean indicating on the application form or on the ircc page (I.e those questions you answer before you get to the documentsupload page? Thanks.
