What will be the reason for extension for him and his family?

Generally, they will have to apply and indicate why they need to stay another 6 months and prove that they have the funds to support their stay in Canada (this will mean proof of finances, employment, or that of the spouse/partner). What about the children? Why are they out of school for 12months?

They can't be supported by Canada as they are temporary visitors so how do they intend to manage this?

That 20kCAD would be better spent on a course that allows your family's legal presence in Canada as the idea of paying for LMIA sponsored jobs smells like a scam and might mean they end up losing that money.


I will screenshot this to him.

I told him already that extension won't be possible.

Paying for LMIA always end up in tears honestly

You can check IRCC website for info regarding 'Visitor record'. Its a type of VV extension application. It has its rules and eligibility.



That family won't qualify for extension honestly

I met a family of 5 today in London.
Next month will be their 6months in Canada.
They have tried all their possible best to change to work permit to no avail.

An immigration expert is requesting for 20k cad from them for LMIA job.

He's planning to extend his visitor visa stay for another 6months inside Canada 'pls is this possible?'

Because I'm just confused, I don't know the kind of advice to give.....

Please guys your advice is needed, will just be doing screenshot of any advice from here and send to him.

I don't advice people to pay for LMIA because is actually free by Canadian immigration law and this is not an easy task to get as they said it.

Those who are charging figure for LMIA are taking advantage of desperate people that are looking for it, remember when UK COS first introduced people are gotten it freely but later been SOLD for people and using it to come over to UK.

There are some immigration lawyer in Canada that did the same thing for LMIA.

Buying LMIA is a dangerous thing because you can't differentiate the fake and positive LMIA, only if you go through a legit employer that fully sponsor you with a Positive LMIA and job offer.

The person that can afford $20,000cad should go through school route nah

Please house I want to ask about this multiple entry visa thing. Let assume I got 5yrs Canada visitor visa which is multiple entry and the max period I can stay in Canada as a visitor on a single entry is just 6month does this mean I can return to my home country and the return to Canada without applying for visa again as long as the visa is still valid?

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Gentlesoul3268: 10:03pm On Aug 20, 2023
All your School related documents such as LOA, enrollment letter, Student ID card, tuition fees etc and a well details notorized invitation letter.

Note all this is not limited you can add one or two things from your side.

Even the kids will need to submit letter from their school confirming their studentship, and acknowledge their visit to Canada for period of so-so along with thier school fee and report sheet etc.


Nazonly:
Hi, if a student in Canada wants to invite their children for a visit, what are the important documentation to use to support the application apart from bank statements for proof of funds? Children are between the ages 9 to 14 years. Thanks for your response.

lack of information and ignorance landed him in his current situation. Notwithstanding, it is not too late. You can link me up with him if he’s still confused. 🤷‍♂️✅

Thanks to all who have helped to answer my previous questions. I am just figuring out this application myself as I don’t have money to pay agents, hence my many questions. I have submitted and got my letter for biometrics. I tried to book online on VFS global website yesterday for Lagos but I didnt see any availability dates, is this normal? Has anyone successfully booked biometrics by calling the phone number on their website or using the webform? Please someone should guide me on how to book as I need to get this done asap. Any links or numbers to call to book biometrics will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I really don't have answer to your question but this screenshot brings to mind an argument about uploading passport photo on the new ircc.. some argued for and some against...but I really think like what I watched in this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0nSvGIdmyU the documents to upload kinda differ based on your profile and responses to the questions on the application form as this portal kinda works with AI (I got the AI info from the hit submit canada YouTube channel)

Gurus in the house. Help a sister. Please if you mistakenly uploaded your employment letter in the optional document section, how do you delete it.

Or how do you delete an uploaded document on the last page.


Please help sir/ma

If the application hasn't been submitted...I would simply delete that application and start a new one.

Good morning guys,

A friend booked a free cancellation hotel with his master card with no fund inside, 10 days after the booking, the hotel sent him message that the hotel reservation will be cancelled that there is no fund in the card used ..

My question is , does he need to book another hotel reservation?

Note: He has the print out of the hotel booking with him. His travel date is next month.

Hello,

Please I need your advise on my pof for visitor visa on the new ircc portal. I have the following options but need to know which is best for my application;

I have my gtb salary account acct that I have been using for years with closing balance of about 1.6m with lots of inflows and outflows.

I have a zenith bank salary account just opened for all staff by my employer 2 months ago. And what I have been doing is to transfer my salary paid into it to my gtb account above once paid.

I also have a mutual fund investment account with Stanbic but have moved all the funds from it to my gtb acct as the interests isn't so encouraging like many years back.

I have the opportunity of getting some funds about #5m from my friend Inviting me to Canada and I'm confused on which of these accounts to recieve the money into and use as my pof. She is a PR with a full time job over there.

I am aware they require at least 6 months bank statements and don't want to be rejected due to lump sum paid recently into my account.

@jmg12 @justwise @XtraordinaryGen @Zubizareta @Jesufifunmi @oluayebenz

Don't you think that the 5 million naira could be viewed as a lump-sum deposit made in order to apply and obtain a visa?

I believe it would be better for her to keep the cash in her bank account and then give you her bank statement and a letter of support to demonstrate the kind of financial assistance she is prepared to provide you with if your visa application is granted.
