Thank you very much. Someone sent me the contact of a Ghana agent to help make the payment and the person said it’s N47,300 per person.
Is this the actual exchange rate? I.e. N100 = 1 GHC.
Cos google says it’s N55. I just want to make sure I’m not being cheated.
Thank you.

Everything is good except the fee was GHC473 as at 19th April 2022. Source: email from Accra CVAC. You can also email them just to be sure about anything that’s unclear. info.canghaiom@vfshelpline.com

Currently the fees have changed from 23.30 euros to 26.35.


Congrats to your Cousin! Thanks for sharing the VFS timeline.....pls help us confirm...did DHL pick up the passport from VFS Germany like they do for VFS Cairo or did VFS Germany return it themselves based on 2 way courier?

Montreal don shake body small. Finally received BIL for my spouse. Even after notifying IRCC and uploading my medical slip, I also received a medical request, whereas I had done an upfront medical about 3 months ago. What do you guys advice? Should I keep notifying them of my upfront medical or I should go ahead and do another medicals?.

Congrats on the BIL for madam. Ask the clinic if they can retransmit your meds from earlier in the year with the IME number on the IRCC remed request. And/or contact IRCC via webform and phone to provide evidence of your remeds done 3 months ago.

Pls see FAQ 14 on page 1.

1 year 8 months + 1 year 4 months = 3 years

You are ok, so long as you have WE that is 1 year continuous minimum that all your WE meets the IRCC requirements of pay, hours, NOC etc.

The 3 years do not have to be continuous in the same NOC or same employer. Pls page 1.
Thanks a lot ma’am I appreciate your response

Thanks for the response. I asked them, and they said they only transmit once, and can't possibly re-transmit. I have gone ahead to contact IRCC via webform.

Hi guys. Long time no see. Glad to see PR is still dropping for most people and their Canadian dreams are being fulfilled.

I need advise. Would it be better for a person who's over 31 to still pursue PR via express entry or just go through the school route? I know FSW is going to resume in July but age is against me and I'd probably need to write the TEF exam or get a job to boost my score. I read online the points that'll be needed from July maybe 500 and above for a while.

Any advise would help. Thanks

Congratulations. Please,how did you make payment to vfs Cairo?
A friend has tried paying to no avail. The bank was asking for vfs address

How to send passport to Cairo

Transmission fee is $11 for each applicant, DHL to Cairo was about 39k, DHL for return was about 45k



For those who want information about VFS CAIRO

The package must contain per applicant:

1. Your original International Passport

2. The printed Passport Submission Letter (also known as Passport Request Letter).

3. All the documents requested in the Passport Request Letter.

4. VFS Consent Form – signed and duly completed (fill page 2 and the upper part of page 3)

5. Proof of payment for Service Package Transmission 161EGP per applicant. (Kindly check for updated amount as this varies over time)


Make payment/transfer to:

o Bank Account name – Al Etimad Modern

o Bank name– CIB

o EGP Account No.: 100017188768

o USD Account No.: 100017188838

7. 2 Passport Photographs each according to IRCC specifications.

Put all documents in an envelope and proceed to DHL or any courier of your choice and pay for a two-way delivery to:

Canada Visa Application Centre

44, Office #G, 2nd Floor,

Giza Residence Tower,

Giza, Egypt



Please feel free to get in touch with VFS Cairo in case of further information on your Canada Visa Application. You may choose to contact them via email on info.caneg@vfshelpline.com and they will get back to you within two (2) business days.



You may call the Canada Visa Information Help line on: +20233323002 between 8.30am – 5pm Sundays to Wednesday, except declared holidays or chat with an agent by visiting their website: https://visa.vfsglobal.com/egy/en/can/contact-us#



IMPORTANT NOTE





1. You can ask someone in Egypt to make payments on your behalf or use wire transfer.

2. VFS Cairo does not do return courier to Nigeria so you have to discuss with a courier service here in Nigeria about the return i.e. 2-way courier

3. You can send all your passports (your dependent + yours) in 1 package.

4. According to the agent, processing and stamping of visa takes 7-10 calendar days after they receive your documents





COURIER SERVICE



You can use any courier service of your choice. DHL, ARAMEX, FEDEX OR UPS . Contact the courier of your choice for their applicable rates

Hello people good morning, please I’d like to find out if these periods of work can amount to 3 years of work experience for EE…
July 2016 - March 2018 - 1year 8months
March 2021 - July 2022 - 1year 4months

Or months don’t count? Or does it have to be continuous? Someone please help clarify.
This counts for three years. However the primary NOC must be a continuous one year work experience in one NOC. The others may be in different nocs eligible to apply as long as you can prove it with a valid reference letter.
