AbiolaSYA:
Hi guys, good morning. God bless all of you for your contribution to the thread. Please I have a question. I applied for visiting visa for my mom last month and she just got her ppr this midnight. Please how do I go about sending her passport? She did her biometrics in Abuja in 2018, so I can’t find the slip. Please help as she needs to travel urgently. Thank you everyone.

Attached the BVL. Biometrics validity letter.

Hello @makano, I have a similar case as wiziggy, I've been going to the bank almost every day, but the payment finally went through yesterday (15th Feb), which was the deadline for the payment.
My issue now is that, Gtbank is yet to send me a proof of payment (telex), aside the alert (text message) I got.
I applied to Centennial College Toronto, and the deposit letter states that if I've not paid by 15th, I might not get an acceptance letter if the program is full.

I don't know what to do at this point please.

Deronke1:
Hi guys, so my husband and I decided to follow the advice I earlier got here on Nairaland that we shouldn't both apply for student visa. He has decided to be the student and for me, open work permit.
Please before we make another mistake, what are the criteria to achieve that, especially for the open work permit.
I currently work at nafdac and that's my only work experience, 1year.

Kellart:
Good evening

My visa got approved today and my timeline has been done here... ( kellart )

Would like to know if I can defer my Admission if I am not ready to travel after my visa stamp...

Was supposed to resume may, and I will like to defer till September

Pls your response is highly appreciated.

Lotathebaby:

Dukealara:

-I changed sponsor from self-sponsor to spouse-sponsor.
-Paid first semester school fee.
-Added more personal asset for myself and my spouse both as couple and as individual.
-Re-wrote my LOE to address all the concerns noted in my gcms note.
-Added few online courses certificate that aligned with the intended program.
-I asked a lot of questions when in doubt.
-I sent my documents to few people on this journey to review before submission.

I just want to return all glory back to God almighty, the finisher of my faith and my anchor through the waiting. He said it and he brought it to pass. Thank you to my MVPs that kept encouraging me and listening to all my complaints and ranting�.You are amazing �� and I intend to keep our friendship�‍❤️‍�‍��‍❤️‍�.

I want to encourage everyone still waiting to keep holding on and keep giving thanks. The wait will be over soon and your mouth will be filled with thanksgiving.

It’s PPR GUYS��������

My story is long and I may not have the timeline correctly bear with me, I’ll post the second timeline because the first one I’m not sure of since the agent I used didn’t let me have access to my profile

This journey started in 2020 basically, that’s when I contacted one popular Canada agent, she’s the one that got admission for me in Crandall university, which I later regretted because the school is way expensive for a one year program but so far I reach there, every other thing will be sorted. So after I got admission I applied in February 2021 with my husband through the agent, for her services we paid over 2k cad, and we got rejected, I was dismayed after all the money spent and all, so the agent told us to try again but was now advising I apply alone, I asked her why she didn’t say this in the first place and she said she can’t tell IRCC’s decision sometimes they approve both partners, other times they disapprove, for this reapplication she was charging 1500CAD, I wasn’t having it, I was pissed after paying more than 2kCAD and was refused, I was asking for a discount and that was the last time I heard from her, meanwhile my husband was on naira land by then and came across frankrobben , that guy was just God sent, after our first consultation he pointed out mistakes made in my first application and what we would do differently this time around , he said I would have to apply alone and gave me cogent reasons, we agreed and hired him. This guy went to work, gave me a list of documents to provide, wrote a very strong SOP AND LOE, even me sef I believe and he submitted in august, guess what happened, another rejection.. see ehn at this point I was pissed because first the reason they even gave was funny, that I didn’t have career prospects at home even when I submitted a letter from my employer granting me a partially paid study leave, with an opportunity for promotion when I get back. See ehn at this point I was done, I called my husband and frank, told them I’m facing UK Abeg and I’m done, after much back and forth, Frank said madam listen I understand how frustrating this is but trust me it’ll be worth it at the end and that did it. We decided to go with JR because we were sure their reason wasn’t good at all, so we contacted a lawyer in Canada and we began the process, I asked the lawyer how long the process will take she said 3 months, surprisingly after she filed and wrote to the defense counsel stating why we were going to court and how their decision was faulty from the start, in less than 7 days they reached out to her for a settlement and reopened my file requested for updated documents , I submitted them again. They asked for medicals, I gave them and now PPR. Please if you know you submitted a strong application and they still refuse you, if you can afford it go for a JR, my experience taught me that this people don’t go through our application thoroughly, I think once they see Nigeria it’s a negative and they refuse without valid reading . Well it has ended in praise. This platform taught me a lot or my husband a lot because he was the one that introduced me to this platform and this is where we met Frank. I always look out for ppr stories and landing gist and promised myself that I’ll post mine when it happens. It’ll end in praise for all of us. Thank you

Adunnee:
Hello everyone, when filling out the study permit application form, do I need to include application for my children (who are minors) with valid visitors' visa?

Damask:
I had the same challenge and this is my advice:
Log in to your gtworld app and check your account officer if you don't know him/her akready. First put a call through to help your fast track. If he fails to do that, go to the branch you chose and ask to speak with the most senior at the fx desk. This worked for me. Good luck.

Good morning guys, please I want to order for my gcms notes, who can assist me with this..

Have sent mails and webforms to ircc as regarding study permit application but no good response other than the generic ones.

Frankrobbn1:
Medicals are reviewed and updated by the Program Case Analyst while the Senior Immigration officer is responsible for initiating the request for a medical in order to continue processing your application. In view of the above timeline, there are higher chances that your application will be positively considered. Hang in there and remain positive.


It will end in praise
