Thank you very much for your response @Emmafe

How much is the transmission fee? What if I cannot find my yellow biometrics slip anymore? Will this cause any hindrance in submitting my passport for stamping? I hope that in person collection of passports is allowed at the VFS office in Abuja?

Emmafe:

Emmafe:
Don’t book anything, you don’t know when your application will be approved.

Pls anyone successfully reach Canada VFS via phone. Cos their number is literally impossible to reach. Or how can one successfully reach them?

Do you know if they issue refunds? I paid 30k plus for 1-way courier however their site now says it's back to the 18k. Anyone in these same shoes as me?

Will appreciate a response. Thank you all once again.

gr8femfred:
Good day sir,
I have the UCI AND APPLICATION NUMBER BUT I DONT KNW HOW TO CHANGE THE MAIL OR HOW TO GO ABOUT IT .. I WILL APPRECIATE IF I CAN HAVE THE LINK

THANKS



[Qquote author=Newbiein2016 post=124273230]Do you have the UCI and application number? Do check online if it's possible to change email address. I saw somewhere a while ago where someone did this through webform.

Ask the agent for a copy of the completed form and use this to request a change in email address.

If it's possible since you've not done biometrics, withdraw this application and do it yourself. Judging by the flippant response stating your wrong date of birth is not an issue (which it is, if not addressed), I wonder if there are no other gaps in your application.

I'm very wary of agents and it has exacerbated because of the multiple complaints I've seen on this and other travel threads, so my advise might be on the extreme end of the spectrum

Please do anyone has a sample of the VFS Passport Collection Mail? This is what I got on the 30th of June, does it mean my Passport is been sent back to me?

ashiwajew:
I need clear guidance on passport submission for visit visa for my Parents in Law. There is a link on the PPR letter that explains a new way to submit passport by either scheduling on phone, online or email but all efforts to reach them through all of these means have proved abortive! Biometrics was done in Abuja in 2018 when they got their first visa. But I am seeing some posts about submitting using Fedex. Please we need a clear submission process

Emmafe:
Fee N9,410. I don’t think d yellow slip will be an issue. Yes, you can pickup in person once it’s ready for collection.

daks02:


Did this fee just change again? I could’ve sworn I saw N16k on their site last week

Emmafe:
Did my flagpole today, converted my visitor visa to open work permit. I will update the post later, I’m very tired, I saw shege

Emmafe:
I’ve talked about this and will say it again, I’m an advocate of “God will do it” but we still need to accept reality n plan base on that. My colleagues traveled to Canada 2021 to visit his family, he’s the only one in naija, I was so pissed when he came back, I asked why he couldn’t just get a job and stay. He told me it’s not that easy, that was his own experience.

Since my wife travelled for her PGD, I’ve bn the one helping her with job applications. For international students who is legally allowed to work to struggle landing a menial job, imagine how difficult it will be for someone on visit visa. During job application when filling the questionnaire, employers always ask if you’re legally permitted to work, most of them don’t want to go through that stress of getting LMIA.

I won’t advise anyone not to try, just make adequate plans. Have something you can fall back on incase that doesn’t work out. I know the situation of the country, I know not everyone will have the opportunity to use PR or study route, but pls make good plans. Don’t put all your hope in what’s not 100% guaranteed. Agents will only sweet talk to cash out leaving you to your reality when you land. I remember how agent sugarcoated things for my younger brother, she told him rent is 50 cad, Job is easy n all. I had him introduce him to Nairaland study thread to see people’s experiences, he got to Canada n blocked the agent after realizing she lied to him.

I’m not discouraging anyone, I’m sure people have used this route and doing well. Just plan, have realistic expectations and pray.

God help us!
