Hi all, please help, The canada visitor visa form question "have you taken a test from a designated testing agency to assess your proficiency in English or French" does this impact visitor visa application in anyway ?

oh wow in that section i did not upload anything there sigh... because i did not know it was for us and the wrote optional
Ashirioluwa:


Don’t stress yourself. Go read about Canada Visa CAN+.

The CAN+ program is for those who have traveled to Canada before or some people who have US visas.

Your application is picked for the CAN+ program, which means they only require a few documents from you.

Some people are only asked to submit their passports and Canadian employment letters.

For that Canada employment letter, if you haven’t worked in Canada before, then upload your Nigerian employment letter.

It’s either you submitted an incomplete document with your passport reasons you didn’t receive an email for 3 weeks now
Did you use a courier service or you submitted in person?
Also what documents did you attach when submitting?
I submitted an incomplete one initially through DHL (I didn’t put the biometric validity letter). so I sent a relative to add the missing document and I also paid the Vfs fees that was attached to it.

PPR Alert!

Previous application:- March 20, 2022. Withdrew on February 28, 2023 and reapplied on the same day. Refused June 9, 2023. Reason, lack of assets and origin of funds. Even though I included landed documents and the only deposits in my account was salary payments... I'm guessing they didn't do a thorough job.

Reapplied June 24, 2023. With same documents. No changes, except travel dates, and modification of SOP to draw their attention to my salary deposits.

Sent additional document (newborn children's birth certificate) on July 20, 2023. Acknowledged on tracker two days later.

7am, September 25, 2023, PPR sitting pretty. 😁

Pls house, I don't understand where to include the visa refusal of either UK or US as no questions of such was ask.

The only place I see was if you have been refuse Canadian visa before.

Meanwhile I was refuse US visa in 2007 and UK in 2022, where do I include this in the form, note that I have submitted.

I submitted my application on 21/09/2023 and yet to do Biometric which is scheduled for October 6.

Kindly advise on what to do.

[quote author=puffmama post=126074100]If you can cancel your application and reapply again, it's better oh .cos not mentioning a refusal is a basis for refusal .

There was someone that was refused a Canada visa once , applied again and got it .
When he applied the 3rd time to renew cos he didn't mention the very first refusal . He was refused .

He thought since he was issued one after his refusal that there was no need .

It's best to always mention a refusal . Even if you are not sure of the date .
They share info with the 5 eyes . They know abt all refusals esp in UK and US ]

Pls house, I don't understand the refuse aspect because when am fill my form that's no place they're ask maybe I was refuse in other country b4

The only place then ask, are you refuse Canada visa before wish I said no

Meanwhile I was refuse US 2007 and UK 2022 or do I need to write my refuse on Letter of Introduction? because I didn't see anywhere in form they ask for refuse

because my application summited 21/09/2023 and my Biometric Letter drop same day 21/09/2023


I don't no maybe I suppose metion the refuse on my Letter of Introduction
I will appreciate respond

The question is refused Canada or any other country. Maybe you can go back and read it again.
You may have to cancel your application to avoid refusal and maybe ban

Ashirioluwa:



It worked for me in the past. I filled out my wife's visa application, but I didn't declare her past visa refusal for the US.

Later, I wrote them a letter of apology and explained to them that I forgot to declare this refusal.

About a month later, they acknowledged receiving the webform and the uploaded document.

Her visa was approved.

Dear house,

I need to ask the questions below as regards my application and sequel to my post yesterday;
1. Will cancelling my submitted application affect my payment, I mean does it affect the visa fee already paid?.

2. Is there a way I can mail them as regards the refusal or the best bet is for me to cancel and submit again?

Please advise.

Police report may not be necessary except you want to convert to work but medicals will be needed. Secondly, I will suggest you do your medicals here because it's going to be expensive over there. Also, if you can do your ielts here, please do because you might never can tell how favourable you could be lucky to get a job because IELTS would be needed. Could you please, share your timeline of your application?

Hello everyone,

I need some advise. I am on PGWP in Canada as i recently graduated from a Canadian school. I have a job and I have savings. I want to completely sponsor my dad for a visit visa but I’m confused on the documents to submit regarding sponsorship. My dad is retired, reason why I have to be the sponsor. He is also elderly.

I plan to write a letter inviting him to stay with me for two weeks. Should I submit 4months of my Canadian saving account, employment letter and pay stub. Or simply writing an invitation letter is sufficient.

Looking forward to your response. Thank you.

This…



It did work for me in the past, but I don't think it is like that anymore because the visa applications of most applicants who forgot to declare their prior refusals were denied, even though some of them claimed they sent emails or webforms to correct the mistakes.

Her first US visa was refused, but she reapplied and got it.

Also, note that in my own case, this wasn't her first Canada visa. She had previously obtained a Canadian visa, and I did mention the US refusal in her first application, and it was approved.

I forgot to mention the US refusal in her second Canada visa application, but I later sent an email to them to correct this. When the application was submitted, I uploaded all the current visas she had at that time: Canada, the UK, Ireland, and Schengen. Her Canada visa was still valid for about two months then. I uploaded her expired US visa too. The application was approved.

Her third visa application was different. I still mentioned the US refusal, but I didn't upload any documents apart from her passport data page and her employment letter because those were the only documents they requested from her.

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by MayorOfEdmonton: 3:39pm On Sep 30, 2023
Well, my mother in law got her visa stamped dis week and we didn't even bother to ask for her bank statement as we clearly stated in the invitation letter that we would sponsor all her expenses.
In the box for how much was available we put $10,000.
If you feel it's needed, by all means go ahead Ma.
Cheers
