Please did you submit your passport in lagos and was it one way?
I went to DHL today I was told they only do one way now and I don’t know to get the passport back,I don’t know if VFS will send me a mail regarding it

kennyjoy:


Please someone should throw more light to this. My family is sending their passport off tomorrow. Since DHL only do one way now. How do we get the passport back?

kennyjoy:
Hi everyone,

For those that have submitted their passport, please, is the transmission fee the same at 9410, and if I'm sending it to Abuja for stamping, how do I get their passport back since DHL doesn't do two-way couriers anymore? I need clarity on this.

Thanks, guys.

Utong:


This is a fact. I was not given medical request and did not do medical before moving. My medical was written N/A meaning not applicable.

HEADYWORLD:


Use UPS for 2 way courier, they are the only one allowed by VFS.


But if you want to use DHL, it’s only one way but you can pay for VFS delivery which 18710 per passport.

I will advice you look for UPS and pay for 2 way courier, it’s cheaper that way


Someone posted that they use DHL for 2 way

Toceen2022:

Just seeing this... I don't know if you've eventually submitted.
But I'm surprised why people say DHL doesn't do 2-way. Well, maybe to vfs Lagos, I don't know. My wife and daughter sent their passport to Abuja, from Ibadan through DHL (2-way) on March 2nd and we received it yesterday 13th.

kennyjoy:


Thanks brother, please how much do you pay for the transmission fee?

I think you uploaded tooo many documents also your bank statement should be sent from the bank then you upload the username/password printed to you from the bank/generate via bank app.
Will recommend you give your application to a good visa agent check out mikano here he will help .

OkukuOne:
Just add whoever is the student btw you and your spouse's Letter of Acceptance in the section for your child as well. They know the child is not yet admitted and the parent's Letter of Acceptance will suffice.

Hello my Good people , I have few questions:

1. Is it okay to file Sowp for my family within 1 month of my arrival in Canada

2.My wife is pregnant and I would want her to give birth here in Canada and later return back to Nigeria (Reasons she will return back to Nigeria is because the bills will be much on me as she won’t be working during her nursing period)maybe after nursing period in Nigeria she can return back to Canada with my kids .

3. Lastly can she be allowed to use SOWP for all these I mentioned above without any issue? Like using it to give birth and also going to back to Nigeria and returning to Canada again .

Kemionidi:

1. Yes you can apply for sowp after 1 month.
2. Why not allow her to give birth in Nigeria and totally settle and then when you’re financially capable you can now apply for the Sowp. You want her to give birth in Canada and then allow her to go back to Nigeria when she’s nursing the baby. I don’t know how that’s possible cus it’s still same expenses
3. No, application for Sowp is different from medical tourism.

My only advice, if you want your wife to give birth in Canada and that child automatically becomes a citizen, ensure your SOWP application is spot on and also dont mention she is pregnant. the chances is it will not be approved or it will be delayed.

Please do whats right for your unborn child. I pray and hope your wife gives birth in Canada at least!

All the best sir!

Good day everybody, I applied for sowp and study visa for my children, 3 of them. We did upfront medical last week tuesday, no message from IOM so far. However, I got a message from ircc requesting medical for my daughter today, no message for the rest of us. I checked the portal and noticed that they are reviewing my medical result, but no update for my other children.
I'm a bit confused as we all applied together, can anyone explain to me if this is normal. Thanks so much.

HEADYWORLD:


I want you to know it’s a good sign. Send the medical results for all member of the family through webform.

Congratulations in advance

technix:
1. Yes, especially if you didn't emphasize much on using her as home ties. Even if you did, I think the pregnancy can allow you tell a compelling story. Also, try avoid emotional stories like you have started missing her within a month.

2. Well, you should be able to get her an insurance or add her as a dependant to your school's insurance if possible. It may also depend on how old the pregnancy would be when she arrives.

3. Yes. The visa on her passport can allow her go back and forth.

Dear @Makano, aestake, Technix, Toceen2022, DrAFOgons, Profgordons, HEADYWORLD, Lizzy et al,

I noticed the status of medical for my application now shows "We are reviewing the results of your medical exam"


I have not done upfront medicals nor have they sent medical requests.

What does this imply?

A response will be highly appreciated

HEADYWORLD:


I really don’t know but someone said it means they will send you medical requests if you need one, so if I be you, I will book my medical do it upfront and send to them. Congratulations in advance

I paid an agent for swop for me and my baby but I noticed the application number start with V .. Pls is this normal?
Pls help check yours .

Abbasdaughter:
Good evening house,
Please I have a really important question, my husband just got student visa to NBCC Canada, now in the letter of Intent, he listed me as home ties and that I Have agreed to stay back and take care of our 4 year old boy. With this in mind, can I apply for SOWP before he leaves Nigeria (He'll be leaving in July), or do I wait till he gets there and settle down before I apply? I hope it won't look deceptive that I plan to join him even though I agreed to stay behind in our letter of intent...?
Thanks for your help everyone

HEADYWORLD:


Nothing to worry about. People change their mind and you apply now for your SOWP or when he left.

Get your documents and write SOP why you want to follow him or why he wants you guy to be with him. You are good to go.


Thanks so much,
I really need help on what documents to get ready so I can work on them and be ready to apply when he gets there in July. God bless you
