Please who can help me out I want to apply for a Canadian visiting visa

If you can read and write then you should be able to do it yourself. Ask question when you get stuck.

You can use either the IRCC portal or the GCKey to apply:

Hello house.

I have a cousing brother who is holding a valid Canada tourist visa.He has decided not to travel to Canada but want to apply for a US visiting visa.His Canada visa was approved on a first attempt without any travel history.

Can he go ahead applying for the US visa and what is his chances of getting the US visa approved.?

Thanks as I await responses.

Olasupo,

I would suggest he utilize the Canadian visa first and fulfil the visa conditions by not overstaying but return back to his home country. He can then apply for the US visa by filling the Canadian travel history in his DS160. That may strengthen his profile. However, if he chooses to proceed to apply for US visa now, he has to bear in mind that his success at the US consulate would depend on how well he is able to respond to the officers interview questions. He has not yet utilized the Canadian visa so no travel history on record yet. He should not relax just because he has a Canadian visa. Let him prepare very well for the interview. The interview questions would most likely come from what he filled in his DS160.

All the best to your cousin.

Good day everyone, I'm about to submit documents to IRCC, note that my office ( sole proprietorship) is sponsoring my tuition, I have my 10k in my GIC account already, and 3m in my naira account for additional POF, pls is the 3m POF for transportation and others enough? Or I need to add to my naira account. Note; My first semester tuition have been paid already. Pls help out

please based on this question, i will like to ask for clarification.
i have just done biometrics but while reading this thread i observed i didnt add my salary statement to my application but my savings statement as only a column was available to attach statement.
if i use the additional document to attach my salary statement now what could happen next because i have lost the same job i had used reference to apply for the tourist visa and my last salary would be as at october.am thinking of attaching the last salary statement but concerned they might ask for current statement which i do not have.
pls advice

Hello House.

Please I applied for a Canadian visit Visa for the 21st January to 31st January 2024. I made a hotel reservation via booking.com and they deducted deposit. I just received a mail from booking.com yesterday that my hotel reservation is cancelled. The hotel just cancelled the reservation without notice.

I am worried that the embassy might contact the hotel, and they are told I don't have any reservation. Please Advice me, should i make another reservation with another hotel, or what? Is there a way to update details of application to make them know i have changed location?

I did biometric on the 13th of november, and i just read that it takes about 3 months to get response. and by then my travel date might have passed. If my travel date passes and i have not gotten response, will the visa be denied ?

Please advice.

Please do not quote me, as there is bug here that hides responses to my comment. Please respond without quoting...

Do I need to do medicals for a visit visa?

msbaileyz:
Do I need to do medicals for a visit visa?

NO!

Totally agree. I applied for visa with closing balance of 105k although millions had been moving through it regularly. Didn't even realize as it was hubby's account and I told him to generate the statement. It was long after application I noticed. My visa was still granted. I may count it a stroke of luck but definitely not an advisable move.

lakeside30:



Let them re apply and include

Property document
Strong family ties
Niagra falls payment receipts/reservation confirmation
Hotel reservations
Flight tickets for round trip
The CAC of the wife booming business
The husband offical letter from work place,confirming he will be using his annual leave period to travel to Canada,his pay slip,bank statement
Wife bank statement too,if the wife is going to b the principal applicant,a very good running account over period of3 or 6 month,no lump sum

While completing the application put 4k cad money that will b wih u in canada,then declare all your US and Canada previous refusal


Anybody on this platform can add more

Everything is luck,i know someone who got canada visa with 2m only in his account, though woth a valid US visa when applying

You can't submit any supporting documentation after application. If it's really an issue you can withdraw your application and submit a fresh one.

PLS DON'T SCROLL PAST!!!

Hello house! 👋🏾

I'm back with a few questions.

1. I want to apply for visa for my child (less than a year). Am I to fill the representative form?

2. My spouse also wants to reapply (we applied same time last year but he was denied, I was granted) is it better for him to be the applicant for our child, or me seeing as I already have the visa. Bear in mind it is his financial documents that will be used as the proof of funds (just as it was the last time we applied), and he's the one that has family inviting us too.

3. Pls how can one make payments as I'm seeing from a few posts back that naira cards are no longer going through?

4. What additional documents will be beneficial to submit asides the regulars?

5. Also saw a few posts back that transmission fee is required for those already with biometrics if this is not going to be their first submission. How true is this? And if true, pls how do we go about it?

Will greatly appreciate anyone with appropriate information. Thanks a lot.

Like the Terminator, I will be back 😁 (with more questions after submission)!

Mine: 2m account balance, 1600 cad flight, 400 food/holding money, etc total 2350 cad. About 1.365m naira. Being denied once for insufficient assets to support stated purpose of visit.
5days visit. Do you think the pof is enough? About 1.4m naira, to remain 600k naira.

No3 answer: download chipper card app and apply for a dollar card, then load it with money and pay for your application, you can get dollars from them at parallel market rate or send dollars to your dollar card which costs $3. Voila.

lakeside30:



What was the reason for denying his clams? 1001 people here were granted

This is how we mislead each other. Some people are here in Nigeria giving false information.

Guys will be scared if you see the rate they are denying applicants, but most people in the camp have a backup plan.

More reason they advise people in the camp to save their money so they can seek alternative options in case of anything.

I think your POF is not sufficient, you should have atleast more than your travel budget cost left in your account, I guess

Gud evening house, my wife was refused last year from study visa, we are about to apply for visitor visa as a couple together this time and she will be a primary applicant due to her federal govt job which will be listed as part of the home ties although I'm the one having a family (cousin) inviting us. My first question now is that i hope there's no issue of her being a primary applicant since I'm the one having family inviting us, Secondly can she apply with the previous new portal profile she opened during a study visa or I should create a new user name for this visitor visa.

1. Yes (Even if husband is applying for both of them)

2. I’d suggest he apply for both of them, the invitation letter from his family should be for him and his Brother/Sister’s Niece/nephew(your child).

3. The family member can pay from Canada and he can send the naira equivalent to him/her.

4. In addition to the invitation letter, his Sister/brother can send her/his Canadian statement of account if he/she is cool with it stating she will co-sponsor.

5. Reach out to vfs via chat/email/call for accurate information

Cheers Ma

He can still submit documents after application. Please go ahead and do so before a decision is made on your application. Raise a webcam.

I was thinking that, but then it doesn't say that anywhere on their websites. Only that applicant must have money large enough to cover the costs of the travel. Applicant must have ties, which I submitted an investment statement with a 1 million investment in my workplace, 935k staff savings and joint ownership of a land worth 3m naira. I also submitted employment contracts, pay stubs, affidavits etc

Besides, there's proof of regular income every month in my bank statement.
