Supposing you are a Canadian visa officer, you will never give an average Nigerian a visa to Canada. See how bitter you are on an issue that you have no control over.

Are JJC becos l guess you’re new to reality, so chill. People like me already know the game! A Nigerians hustling in hot Doha or sunny Dubai suddenly want to head to Canada on some invisible tourist visa plan or unknown business conference or a bogus tourist applicant that have not even visit ghana and suddently applying canada visit visa .The intention is obvious. Stop acting like it’s rocket science

in summary you didn't have enought money to show you are doing well in nigeria to visit Canada

(1) for a visitor visa to Canada you must show that you have the money
(2) show how you made that money you have

On average, a tourist in toronto spends at least $300 per day, and this is a conservative estimate

I have explained this before but I will put it down here again
Do you have a valid US/UK visa

if have a valid US visa, so the visa officer is less likely to suspect that you plan to overstay or claim asylum.

that's another reason

1. Proof of Funds (POF):
You need to provide proof of funds for any visa application. Clearly explaining your plans and how you intend to fund them will greatly strengthen your application.

2. Sample Budget for a 7-Day Stay:
For a 7-day trip, outline your expenses as follows:
- Flight: $$$
- Accommodation: $$$
- Activities: $$$ (Explain what you plan to do and their costs.)
- Transportation: $$$
- Food: $$$

If you have a family member who is a PR or citizen, they can provide their PR card or passport with their address and rent agreement or mortgage to show the visa officer that you will stay with them. If they are covering your accommodation, they should write a letter confirming this. This can reduce the financial burden on your application.

If you don’t have such a family member, that’s fine. You’ll need to write a detailed letter explaining your plans, activities, and estimated costs you are looking to spend for each item.

3. Safe Bank Balance:
While there’s no exact "safe balance," having more than the recommended amount for your trip is crucial. For example, if you have ₦15 million ( one applicant) , that would be considered sufficient but IRCC wants you to have way much More than your your require.

On average, a tourist in toronto spends at least $300 per day, and this is a conservative estimate.

Look at it this way if you make #500,000 naira in nigeria a month why would you come to spend your month salary in less than 48 hours in canada and claim you want to stay for a week or two.


4. Why Family Members Help in Visa Applications:
Many successful applicants have family members who assist by:
- Providing their PR card or passport.
- Writing a letter or providing proof (e.g., a lease agreement) to show they will house and accommodate the applicant.

This reduces concerns for the visa officer and simplifies the application process.

ajibolag:
Does France and UK visa qualify for super visa processing timeline? I don’t think so but I may be wrong.

Super Visa is a type of Canadian visitor visa that allows parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens and permanent residents to visit Canada for extended stays, up to 5 years at a time, with multiple entries permitted over a 10-year period. It's designed to facilitate family reunification and allows for longer visits compared to a standard visitor visa.

Hello good evening everyone. I want to ask this question and Please reply me biko😊. I was filling a V visa to Canada I came across a question. Which school do you attend under education question I was confused what to fill in there. So I also came across another question what do you do. I'm self employed but I search through the listed work there I did not see anything relating to My business I sell clothes. So i need guide. I want to try and apply Canada tourist visa.

House34:
If you're not currently in school, just write "Not applicable" or "N/A" under the education section.

For your job, since you sell clothes, you can write "Self-employed – Clothing seller" or "Retail business owner." If there's no exact match, choose something like "Retail" or "Self-employed. And many youtube video to guide you with canada visitor visa application.

Na who offer u job that you apply work visa, you attend job interview and get lmia or agent apply for you?..dey play until agent get you a ban!

amnotapervert:
Please ask your friend’s Facebook agent the following questions:

What type of work permit is it — an open work permit or a closed work permit?
I am 100% sure the agent will not answer this question clearly.

Did the agent mention what job it is for?

Thank you soooooo much bro for you smooth reply, really appreciate.Thanks alot

Did your friend have any job interview?

Did the agent provide the LMIA number used to obtain the work permit?

What does the application number start with? Here’s an example of common prefixes:

Visitor: V123456789

Citizenship: C123456789

Work Permit: W993830598

Economic Class: E099977028

Remember, an LMIA (Labour Market Impact Assessment) is very much like the UK’s Certificate of Sponsorship (COS). The average illegal cost of obtaining an LMIA can be as high as $15,000 CAD.

Here’s the bitter truth:
Nigerian Facebook visa agents have been running a big business of selling fake work visa packages. In reality, many are just submitting visitor visa applications with falsified documents. This has caused many people to be banned from Canada — often without their knowledge — while jumping from one visa agent to another.

What your friend needs to ask the Facebook agent:

1. Who is the employer?

2. What is the LMIA number? (It’s a 7‑digit number, usually starting with an 8.)

3. Is the LMIA for an open work permit or a closed work permit?

4. What is the LMIA’s duration? Currently, it must be for 6 months, as the Government has stopped issuing 1‑year LMIA approvals for certain jobs.

If the agent lies or ignores these questions, that’s an immediate red flag.

Process of obtaining work visa
Employer applies for LMIA ➔ Gets LMIA ➔ Gives LMIA + Job Offer to You ➔ You Apply for a Work Permit ➔ IRCC Approves ➔ You Get the 6 months Work Permit ➔ Travel and Begin Working in Canada
