February 2023. Mine is to visit my family.Eligibility has not started too. Background check started since April 19. So I am just curious to know if anyone that had an update on the 19th of April has gotten PPR

Pamda1234:


When did you apply? Applied January 26th 2023, eligibility not started.
is your application to visit family or tourist visa?

Haryour124:


Pls what is pm? Can we chat on WhatsApp pls

You sent me a mail via NL message

Ibironkeab:
Since 2021,I just got response from IRCC. My application is still in progress, biometric validity has been approved. I'm yet to get PPR and a request for new passport came because the former expired. Few days after, he said the application can't be submitted without paying $100. I don't have login details he has it.

Bro, please I want to understand something... are you saying your passport has expired yet they they approved your application?

New portal

SweetJJ:


Congratulations. Is it new portal or the normal IRCC portal?

Ibironkeab:
Family of 4. Two has expired and two hasn't. So he is asking for $200

What has expired

All he has to do is take the sowp ppr letter with him when he is traveling to Canada he should inform cbsa officers and show them the letter he would be stamp sowp sticker at entry ... Or rather still go to any Canada/Us border for stamping its just 30mins stuff no need for vfs delay

Hello everyone, please we just received my hubby SOWP PPR and to think we just sent his passport for stamping for the visitor visa. We are yet to receive it back thou. Please should we wait till we get back the passport and resend it for the SOWP or we should contact them. We have been trying to call VFS but it’s not going through. Please any suggestions?

Please any one who travelled of recent, is it fine if I make an hotel reservation on booking . com and select pay at the property or is it compulsory I make the hotel payment right here from Nigeria.


Urgent please 🙏

Most people prefer to pay when they reach the hotel, you can make reservations.

Hello folks,
I am a PR applicant and my application is still in progress.
However, my wife is pregnant due to give birth soon.
Our concern is that she lives alone in Canada and will need the support of her mother Inlaw(my mother) for omugwo.

1. Please is it possible to apply for a visiting visa for my mother while my application is still in progress?
2. Can she invite her mother inlaw with just her employment details but a low account balance and still state that she will be responsible for her upkeep?
3. Is it mandatory that the VV applicant must have some money in her account?
Lastly, can we state in that application that she will be visiting for the purpose of postpartum care and that she will be staying for 3months

Please, can anyone advise on the best way to go about this?

1) Yes, she can invite her
2) She can’t claim to be her sponsor without enough funds. There must be enough funds to finance her stay. POF and home tie is the most important part of visit visa.
3) Not necessary since she’s not financing her trip, if she has something in her account it’s not bad. You can also state she’s going for postpartum care but I will suggest she declare 1 month. 3 months is much and also the funds available is limited. She can choose to stay up to 6 months when she gets to Canada, she can also apply for visitor record if she choose to stay longer than 6 months.

I wish your wife safe and smooth delivery.

Yeah I do prefer to pay when I get there as well, all I have is a reservation from booking, hope I won't be distributed by immigration, I will be with more than enough Pta.

Urgent advice please !
A friend had his passport missing! Few days later BVL and ppr landed. He has got a new passport replaced but different passport number! How should he go about it with ircc with the ppr expiring in 10 days ?

Send mails and Webform especially to Lagos and Abuja asap. If possible call ircc.

We have been thinking of doing this because of the VFS delay in sending back passport. We just don’t know if it will be possible for the officer to attend to the sowp when coming in.

Good evening! I have a concern regarding my parent's visitor visa renewal application. I mistakenly answered 'No' when asked if they have been denied a visa in the past. However, they were previously denied a US visa but have since successfully applied for another one. Would it be advisable for me to submit a webform to rectify this error? Thank you.

Gaziz:


Can anyone provide the ircc number to call! It’s urgent !

There's no need to call anyone. Just send a message including a copy of the new passport using the webform and email. Having done this, send the new passport immediately for stamping.

DON'T WAIT FOR THEM TO REPLY YOUR EMAIL OR WEBFORM.

Send the updated information through webform. If possible, attached evidence showing his true identity; preferably an affidavit stating JMLA and JLM is one and the same person, but now wish to be known and addressed as JLM.

Yes, it is advisable you do that. You can submit a one page official letter via webform and probably refill that section and attach. It helps their application as it will get difficult to defend if they detect it and write your parents before you notify them.

Baba, you changed moniker, or na still the same dreamchasers since 2016…?

Good morning beautiful people! Please I need assistance.
So I got a mail  this morning from IRCC requesting for a copy of my son’s birth certificate and consent from non-accompanying parent together with his signed passport data page which we submitted when we applied.

1.  Should I send the same notarized letter we submitted when we applied OR should we send a new one with the today's date?

2. Do we need to notarize the new consent letter?

3. We stated our travel date (April) in the consent letter we submitted when we applied, if we are to write a new one, can we state the new travel date or leave it out?

Kindly assist my gurus in the house🙌

My husband got d same mail for our kids dat applied with him. Wot I did was to use d letter heading of my work place to write d consent letter,I didn't notarize it. And within two days one of d kids got ppr, but we r still waiting for d remaining kid.
No need to put d travel date, and yes write a new one bearing today's date

If you read previous posts or comments here on nairaland, then you will know that this is nothing to worry about.

All you need to do is send a webform to update his profile with the new passport, then send the new passport to the VFS application center whenever he receives the passport request letter.
