Sincere thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread. Like I said earlier, though I always research CIC and VFS Global websites for planning, this thread has been invaluable. I just got my passport back from the Visa Processing Centre. I year multiple entry visa attached

Cheers all!

The snags I see in your application :

1. Travel history : west Africa is not a credible destination for many visa officers. Try and visit some western countries before reapplying.

2. Who own the account with 12 million?. It's easier to use sponsors for study permit than visiting visas. They will think you are not up to it.

3. Drawings of a building does not signify ownership. I can sit down with my architect friend to draw anything. Documents that show ownership includes c of o, registered survey, deed of assignments, governors consent, etc.

I can go on and on. My advise is to build up your home ties further before reapplying

You are only notified that your passport is ready for collection. You don't know the outcome until you open your package.

It depends on how you package your application. It's not cast in stone. You need to assure the visa officer that you intend to visit for visiting sake only. A good travel history and a written personal statement explaining why you want to visit canada is one way to show purpose.

In all my TRV applications I always submit "My Personal Statement " .

If it's an online application, you would receive a passport request email in your "myCIC" account. I don't know if they send email though.

Hi All, Please I would like to seek advise on the Canada visit visa I am about to apply for. A bit of background: I stayed in the US for about 4 years on student visa, my mum and siblings are citizen and LPRs in the US. I visited Canada in 2013, reapplied and got another visit visa till 2015. I was to visit again in August 2015. My husband applied for a visit visa so we could go together but he was denied (for the second time as he does not have travel history), so I had to go alone. I spent a week in Canada in August and left exactly when I stated I would. My current visa is still valid till Dec 12 but I intend going by Dec 17 for 10 days so I want to apply for a renewal. However I want to include that my husband would accompany me with a letter of explanation stating that I visited the Niagara in August, loved the place but could not see much and would love to visit with my husband again to return before Dec 31 so we can celebrate new year in Naija (quoting $5000 as available fund with leave letter stating we would be paid while on leave). What do you think are our chances. I currently earn over 400k monthly, my hubby earns about 180k. Combo of our accts would have abt 2m (due to some recent spendings, previous statements would show balances up to abt 4m). Any advice otherwise?

Hello NL, I am new here and would like to share my experience and also seek a pro advise. i have been to canada once on a 6 month single entry visa but was denied entry as a result of the fact that my proposed prog used to obtain the visa has passed. on leaving the immigration official cross the visa with a pen and informed it wasnt any problem that it is the normal procedure for any1 coming on a single entry visa. can some1 share any experience on this as i will like to reapply soon. hope this would not jeopardize my chance of obtaining a new visa.

If the reason for his refusal is travel history, i will advise both of you to apply for UK,SA and Dubai visas. With these he can build some history.

Secondly, dont depend so much on your own travel history as the basis on which he should be issued a visa. He is the man hence the VO will be more comfortable with him applying for you and not vice versa.

The financial part of your question is not clear as everything you said is in order. In conclusion , the chances of you getting a visa can only be determined by the VO.

Your story is strange because the border officer could have let you in for few days if you told them you were also on vacation. There are other details you may need to share on your current status in Nigeria and the program you went for.

The border officer didn't believe you won't overstay your visa hence the reason it was cancelled. Be assured that your details have been sent to their consulate in Nigeria so you have to be truthful if you apply again.
