I believe the valid US visa did the magic. I have an expired US visa which I used twice in the past but I'm still awaiting decision after 3 weeks of biometrics completion.

I helped her renew her U.S. visa through Dropbox before applying for her Canadian visa because I know that if your U.S. visa is not current, they may not expedite the process as they usually would. I think you should have renewed your U.S. visa before applying for the Canadian one.

maziemeka2024:
Same here. Was just refused a second time, even with active UK visa. First time they said I did not provide enough evidence. Now I packed all the evidence and still got refused. Waiting for the GCM note.

I think they should make it clear that canada no longer accepts tourists from Nigeria. So that Nigerians stop wasting time and money applying.

Please bosses, is it possible to wave away IELTS test for work permit
Do we have some state in Canada that u can wave this IELTS test ?

House34:
What do you mean by a waiver for IELTS in state in canada ? Every Canadian immigration program has clearly detailed requirements, including language proficiency if needed . Please wait for your GCMS notes, as someone suggested, because you may have been a victim of a scam.

I also hope it's not the same agent who is now asking you to look for an IELTS waiver .

It expired about 9 years ago. I didn't do dropbox cos I felt I don't have any plan of traveling to US anytime soon. I noticed that it now takes longer to apply for US visa especially when you miss the opportunity for dropbox, so I decided not to waste time and money sine time is not really on my side.

First question:Please check the top of your refusal letter OR biometric letter and let us know what letter your application number starts with.

The application number usually begins with a letter followed by 9 digits. Here's what each letter indicates:


E**...** Express Entry PR applications
EP**...** PNP-related applications (non-Express Entry)
W**...** Work Permit applications
S**...** Study Permit applications
V**...** Visitor Visa or Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) applications

Please reply with the first letter of your application number ?

Ajalalomo:
The expedited processing is only available to those who currently hold a US visa, people who have visited Canada in the past, and some lucky fellows.

Since your application for a US visa has expired, I don't think you will enjoy the expedited processing time.

Your application will be placed in the queue and processed within the standard processing timeline.

After biometrics, the processing time is currently 109 days.

Nicols:
109 days is like a month past my vacation days which happens to be my main purpose for the visa application. Do you think this will affect my chances?

Agidipie:
Hello all, I am filling my Canadian visa applications on the new portal. I am currently having issues with my "WORK AND SCHOOL" section.
I was asked to provide details of my work for 10 years, in which I have I done multiple times but when I click "save and continue" to move to the next section, it keeps giving me the error message attached. Please help.

Olacalm11:
Good morning boss the application number start with W which is work permit and I asked him Abt the job offer he said this particular package (Agri food pilot) no need of job offer but I disagree and claimed he paid some money which I don't understand the kind of money he paid

One thing you need to understand about the Canada visa process is that anyone can apply for any type of visa — but not everyone will qualify.

Just because your agent applied for a work permit visa on your behalf and there was no medical request from IRCC, but a direct refusal instead, that’s a red flag.

Also, have you ordered your GCMS notes?

To the best of my knowledge, and according to IRCC, you need a valid job offer to be eligible to apply for a work permit under the Agri-Food Pilot Program if you’re applying from outside Canada.

But in your case, you don’t have an educational credential assessment (ECA) or IELTS test results — so why is your agent wasting your time and money with lies!

Olacalm11:
Thank u so very much boss 🙏 I ordered for my GCMS and I got a reply in the next 3days but not in details just a refusal message and I was told to login my acct to see everything but the agent is yet to give me my login we are still dragging it Sha bcs me I will collect my money back Coz I still never understand the type of working visa the idiot apply for me without a job offer 🤷

Ashirioluwa:
He paid the money to who and for what?

As per Agric-food pilot:
Those who are applying from outside Canada must have a valid job offer that meets the IRCC's specific requirements. The applicant must also meet the educational requirements.

Those who are already in Canada legally can apply using either the job offer requirements or the educational qualifications.

In your case, you will only be eligible to apply if you have a job offer and can fulfill the educational requirements.

Ajalalomo:
Check again to make sure there’s no gap

What you got in 3 days is not a GCMS note, because GCMS usually takes 20 days or more. What you received might be a refusal letter instead, but that’s usually sent as a notification via email, asking you to check your portal
