You should be able to create application status tracker with the information you have.

Your UCI and application number can be found on the “Biometric instruction letter” you took to VFS for your biometric.

Also, you know the email.

You can use this link to create one.

I still maintain my stand on people being lazy. What's the success rate among those who used agents after parting with their millions and those who did it themselves with their brains? I've read people's comments on this threads from when it was created, till this point and I can tell you the percentage of those who used their brains far outweighs those who used agents. You can tell from their testimonies. What I've read mostly are sad stories of naive applicants who used agents.

You don't even need any agent for your POF. There are hundreds of loan companies who can offer that service at a flexible percentage interest or commission. Some do advertise here on NL sef. Go to students threads and you'd see them advertised by nairaland.com.

You don't need any agent to search for a conference that's relevant to your field. There's 10times.com, which is a leading global conference site. I had used it back in the days for all the events that I had attended. Most of the partners we work with in Nigeria today were sourced from those conferences and exhibitions attended which, I got via 10times.com. I had used eventsbrite too but 10times is richer and nobody recommended or introduced it to me. I searched online and did my due diligence on it. What else do you need...? You don't even need a property or the map of your home town to apply for a TRV. Agents had dashed the hopes of many innocent Nigerians and they cannever enter the USA, Canada and UK again. Some may be aware of their continued refusals after requesting a GCMS Note, while some aren't. That's not good news.

DIY remains the only option. If you're refused, try again.. you'd be surprised by the time you finally get through, you'd not spend one-quarter of what you'd have dashed an agent who would only kill your dreams. Enough said

You are right, but why do you always like to write a book when you can actually do this with just a sentence or two?

Hello my good people,

I have applied for Canada visitor visa to attend a conference in 2012 through an agent where he claimed that I was a doctor with a university degree but the visa was refused fast track to this day I have been to several Schengen countries up to 4x and established my own company in building construction.

Now I intend to apply to visit my niece with up to 11m naira as my balance.

My main concern now whether to put my true academic level which is o level and that will contradict my previous claim in 2012 or follow up on what was initially filled in the form in 2012 as there will be no need to prove it.


Please your idea will guide me in what to do guys

Thanks

Don't be angry. I know you've complained before but I just ignored. At times you need to expatiate, to stop some gullible peeps from going astray in some cases, a sentence or 2 may not suffice. I do understand that, not everybody has that ample of time to do that.

It's not an easy task too but seen as a sacrifice.

How agents have destroyed so many lives!!!

But wait! as an O' level holder, so you also allowed someone to do such thing without thinking of the future consequences it might later toll on you....Do you know what it takes to be a medical doctor? I am not condemning you but i wish to tell you that you are an accomplice to this because you could have said NO, OUT RIGHTLY. This is an INTENTIONAL FORGERY!!!

And who said you wouldn't need to prove you are still a medical doctor after 12 years if you would like to use the informations you filled in your last application? Won't you submit your updated basic work docs and salary account? Have you never had any promotion since 12 years? On IRCC database, you are already a medical doctor. Now if they later get to know that everything was forged, the masquerade of 12 years ago with its ugly face will land you a ban

Shalom!!!

In 2010 I applied to attend an educational conference in Canada, but the application was rejected. Then I was working at a business center, but the man who packaged my visa application claimed I was a polytechnic lecturer. He lied about so many things in the application.

-I was single then, but he claimed in the application that I was married with 2 kids.

-My highest qualification then was OND, he claimed I had master degree.

-I applied again in 2012 and I did it myself. I used my correct information. My application was denied.

-I applied again in 2013 claiming that I was going to attend a conference (EDmedia 2013) . My application was approved. I had UK visa in my passport before I applied for the Canadian visa.

My applications were never queried for contradicted information.

To request a GCMS note, you must be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident; or an individual residing within Canada, and it will cost you CAD$5.

Applicants outside of Canada can still apply for GCMS notes through use of a representative who is either a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, or corporation in Canada.

Finally the long awaited PPR for my 2 kids.
First time applicant.
Study application and VV for my kids submitted: 29th Sept. 2023
Study PPR: 18th Oct. 2023 (PPR dropped 5hrs after my Biometrics)
Same day, they requested for consent letter and medicals for my kids (it was among the documents we uploaded) anyway, I attached the requested documents and sent them a mail (I mistakenly attached same child medical sheet twice, they responded immediately drawing my attention to my error and requested for the second child’s XXXX medical sheet which I resent.
Oct. 20th 2023, their portal changed to “medicals passed”
Now the long wait 🥹🥹, I sent a few mail but kept getting autogenerated responses. I had to defer from Jan to April intake.
March 18th 2024: PPR for both kids dropped at about 7:36pm😳😳😳
I have been a silent reader. Comments and testimonies from other members has helped to keep hopes alive.
For those still waiting, It will end in praise!

Eriokanmi:
If it's a conference, a letter of invitation isn't necessary. Just register and pay for the conference, where applicable and upload registration confirmation page alongside the paid invoice for the conference on the portal in the column where invitation letter upload is indicated.

But if its an event to which you're invited, you'd need a letter of invitation from the organiser.

With a good travel history, a visa applicant doesn't need to worry about much documentation. But if you're a first time applicant, the VO would profile you as a potential immigrant so, the onus is on you to prove them wrong by uploading as much documents as possible, guaranteeing convincing ties to your home country.


Please what did I need to go with when going for biometrics in Abuja?
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Eriokanmi: 12:24pm On Mar 20

Your passport, proof of payment for the biometrics and the IRCC's Instruction Letter for your biometrics. You may also print a copy of the mail you received for this purposes and take it along with you.

[Hello sir, you sm1 can convert the visiting visa to any other legal form by writing IELTS?.. Can you explain better sir. I need your help on that area.

I am a Canadian permanent resident myself who arrived from Nigeria as a PR holder. I can confirm that the process is fast after you are nominated. The next step is to apply for permanent resident status and mostly within six months, if all your documents are completed, you will be granted the PR. It hurts my heart and I feel sad when I see young Nigerians in canada , even with master's degrees, claiming asylum based on greedy agent advice when all they need to do is take the IELTS and wait in the pool. I hope you will pursue your dreams and goals legally and responsibly.[/quote]

Gbam! My long epistles were put up for such a reason as this grin. You can imagine several silent applicants who had fallen victim too. He/she who has ears, let him/her hear.

I don't know how best this applicant can package his application and the VO will be convinced. So sad! You're paying someone out of laziness, someone whom you can even lecture on visa application packaging, just because they told you they're an agent, lol. What a fraudulent arrangee. A Dr applicant who is an O'L holder in a real life, SMH!.

I know someone who can never enter America for the rest of his life again due to an agent's involvement in his application. He used a credit card which didn't belong to him to register a conference for the applicant and his visa was approved. On getting to POE at DC, the CBP called the conference organisers who said there was a fraudulent charge on the CC used and they've sent him several mails to provide a different card or pay by T/T but he didn't respond so, they deregistered him.

Meanwhile the email address the agent used to register belonged to the latter. He was receiving those mails but ignored them. The guy was arrested, put inside a cold cell for 2 days and deported.
The Applicant had gone to hire immigration lawyers recently, after several refusals . He had paid the lawyers heavily. Meanwhile this innocent man paid the agent the naira amount as agreed. But the eediot went and registered a conference for him with a card that didn't even belong to him. This happened nearly 2 decades ago.
