Please guys i do not understand what they mean. Kindly help me for more explanation because it seems they are asking for payment.

VFS doesn't allow 2 ways courier anymore either you send through courier to their office and opt for VFS courier pay service or you should walk-in

Hello everyone, I want to apply for TRV due for the new 30days window, but my passport expires in January. I currently have my spousal PR application at background check. Should I just go ahead and apply for the TRV anyway or I should renew my passport first.
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Ennamdee(m): 8:54am On Jun 22, 2023
Which will you advise and which is faster, Sending to VFS LAGOS or VFS ABUJA?

In sending it to Abuja, Please what are the procedures? assuming it is a minor that didn't do biometrics.

Thank you.

The Action required message after passport has been stamped can truly give an HBP.

Are you certain of this 30-day processing time?

This can't be true because currently, applicants who receive a final decision within six months are only a few from a pool of applicants. They still represent less than 10% of the total applicants.

From the 26th June when Sean annoyed about the family reunification, TRV applications will now have a processing time of 30 days moving forward if you have your spouse sponsorship application in process.

Pls can someone help me with this:

My husband got this email (attached) from CIC 3weeks ago.
I logged into his account and discovered that the GC key has been revoked (my last login was over a year ago coz I felt we won’t get the visa coz we applied since 2020)
I created a new account and tried to link it with the old account but it wasn’t successful.

Now (two days ago) my son and I got emails saying we should send our passports. But my husband didn’t get this mail (I feel it’s because he hasn’t responded to the message they sent to his account which we don’t have access to)

I am thinking of sending a mail to the Canadian embassy (or the appropriate office) about this.
Pls can someone help with d appropriate email address for this 🙏🏽

Also, if there is a better way to go about this whole issue, pls help out 🙏🏽

Thanks in advance

If your trip is not urgent why can’t you submit it in Lagos? And for minor in Lagos won’t pay any dim. But if you send it to Abuja both of you will pay.

Different btw Abuja and Lagos now is not up to a week sha

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Gentlesoul3268: 1:35pm On Jun 22, 2023
I think VFS will contact you when your passport is ready in Abuja and you will need to pay for VFS courier service per applicant.

Wait till you get the message from them they will advise you on what to do.

Please my wife did Biometric in Lagos and our 3 years old twins are dependent in the application, they all got PPR and my wife submitted the passports through DHL to Lagos VFS. Now somebody said my 3 years old children are suppose to pay for transmission fee of N9,930 each. Is this true, if it is true how do I go about the payment because the passports have been submitted already.
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by herbDean101: 2:12pm On Jun 22, 2023
Hello, we applied for a visitor visa, and when they approved it and asked for passport for stamping, the passport validity is remaining just under 6 months. Is it possible to renew the passport and send it in to VFS for stamping, so that the visa time is not reduced because the old passport is about to expire? We can even just attach the old passport to the back of the new one.
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Ashirioluwa: 2:18pm On Jun 22, 2023
My wife submitted her passport for a visa at VFS.

In-person submission at VFS Lagos on Saturday, June 17.

Received passport “ready for collection” email on Tuesday, June 20.

She picked it up today Thursday, June 22.

With this experience, I think the turnaround time is fast in Lagos too, compared to what people are saying.

I wish those waiting for visa decisions more success stories.

Have you received the passport request letter?

Renew it if you know the passport will be out on time.

When the passport is finally out, send a message to IRCC through the webform and email to update your profile.

If you have where to get it done in 2 weeks max, go renew it and submit before the 30 days elapses

Do 3 years old kids pay Transmission fee if they submit passports to VFS in Lagos along with their parents passports?
If yes how do I pay the transmission fees if the passports had already been submitted?
The parents did Biometric in Lagos.

Have you attempted to restore your husband revoked GC Key using the forgetting username option.

I did a quick check on google and it brought out this possible option.

Try it if it works
