"We would like to inform you that your processed passport has been dispatched from the Canada Visa Office, on 03 May 2018 to the Canada Visa Application Centre."

Please can anybody assist to explain what this e-mail means?

Thankss

olumig:
Simply means come and collect your passport, but you wont know the decision until you collect your passport.

Thanks Olumig.

Does she need to wait for another e-mail specifically saying "come and collect your passport" before going to VFS?

Gurus in the house. Please a quick question. Applied for visiting visa to Canada via paper on April 5th and got an email yesterday- May 4th that “your processed passport is ready for collection”.

Please what does this mean. Denial or successful. I guess I shouldn’t expect a medical email since it’s visiting but will they send me an email if it is approved?

For those who applied for visiting via paper, how do you know if it’s approved. Is it until you get your passport? Or do they send you approval email?

Help me Gurus.

Any update on your Visa

ufkenedy:
Hello guys. Pls my question goes thus;
How many years or months does canada issue for a tourist visa?

Nigerian passport i meant!!!

dbay01:
I actually had this question in mind too, would be nice if someone with experience could answer... Thanks!

dbay01:
Thanks for the prompt reply!
I recently plan on relocating to Canada although I don't know on which platform to apply,
maybe express entry, student visa and all. Left Nigeria some 2 years ago to Belgium for my MSc. Within that period, I've had 2 years US visa which expires May 2019 and visited once, within the last month I got 6 month UK that expires in October and travelled to more than 7 countries in the EU. I will be finishing my MSc here by September and need to have a concrete plan to fall back to. I think Canada is a right one. so based on experience, I hope I can be rightly advised on the best and sane way to eventually get to live in Canada because to be sincere, I have very limited knowledge of Canada immigration issues.
Note: financially I can say I have 8,000 euros in savings presently
I appreciate your honest suggestions... Thanks!

When it comes to Canada visit visa..profile is not what qualifies you to enter Canada..Canada no send whether you have been to the moon or space before,if you like visit the US once every two weeks ,that is not what Canada has ever looked for or looking for ward to use as a criteria.ordering your gcms note wont even solve the problem because your refusal reason has no basis ,Canada didn't just want to issue you with visit visa.I have told people that its easier to get US visa than that of Canada and i don't know why and nobody knows why.So just wait for some time and reapply.There is nothing more you need to add in your application..that's just the truth. Even the US visit visa people have argued that you need travel history,good job,family ties all are lies...the US visa officers dishes out visa according to their mood.When i got denied US visit visa,i went with my cousin who had never visited even Ghana,his passport was even gotten 2 months before the US visa interview and he just finished NYSC looking for job and single.I on my part just even returned from a work seminar from Berlin,i have been to 19 European countries,3 Asian,4 South America,3 Middle east,12 African countries some work related,some vacation with my family and some to watch sports games like Lawn tennis,world cups,Champions leagues but i was denied based on family ties,travel history and all not what after the visa officer flipped all through my 3 passports with valid visas but my cousin was given 2 yrs entry visa with a virgin passport and no family tie and no job..so this things happen,but barely 4 months that i was denied the same US visa,same US embassy gave me 10yrs visit visa.

EfeNuda1:

Congrats.. That was quite fast.

There is something I don't understand. I note that US visa B1/B2" reciprocity for Nigerian Passport is 24months (2 years, validity) irrespective of your country of residence.

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Nigeria.html

So how come across US issued you 10 years B1/B2 visa? Can explain better or you mean they have changed it? Thanks

My God. You don't need to insult me. I only asked you a very simple question that i don't understand. I did not accuse you of anything in the above. Take it easy Ok, you don't need to take it personal. I want to know more about it and that was why i asked before you to explain more info about it. Read my post again i even thanked you at the end of my post. Chai.. is it now a crime now to learn? Nawa for some people sha! Heyyyyyy oga oooo! Smh.

EfeNuda1:


Even me, I would like to know how you got ten years? What did you do different? Normally Nigeria is 2 years?

AllBusiness:



Funny

AllBusiness:



Exactly, thats the simple question i asked before he/she attack me O! Very strange and funny.

EfeNuda1:


Because I applied once and they gave me 2 years. I just renewed and it was approved but I don’t know how many years they gave me yet. All Nigerians I have seen it’s 2 years.

But there are exceptions, if you are a PHD student and you will be travelling to US for conferences, you get 10 years.

Apart from that, Nigerians are given 2 years. Ghana is 5 years, Morocco is 10 years, etc
