Hi,
I am new on this platform in regards to posts but I have been following.
Please I need your clarification on this:- my friend got "validity of your biometric information" letters (from Kenya) about two weeks ago for him, his wife and three children on the 7th week of submission of their application at VFS. They are going to canada as workers and students . They submitted also police reports and medicals upfront. My question is, is it likely that they will be granted visa?
Please I need you candid opinion.

Awuuga:
Did you do upfront medicals?

I received my approval two days after I got my correspondence letter with the subject ‘Validity of Biometric Information’.

If the medical exam was requested and like you’ve said you passed then you’ll get your approval in a few days.

Awuuga:
Yeah sure. The correspondence letter stating that your application has been approved.

Does letter of "validity of your biometric information" indicate visa will be granted?

Austacus:


It can come in either way so far your visa has been approved.
But if you haven't gotten your own, email CIC for it
You've got to remind them if you've haven't seen yours for a week.

It's very important you get that note cause you will be asked to show immigration officer at the port of entry in Canada.

No
It doesn't
Only when you're called for medical > medical passed> validity of biometric then its a sure bet for an approval.
Base on what we've been seeing in this thread lately

sleekysoft:
Sorry I stand to be corrected ... biometric validity after medical request or upfront medical show 100 percent approval based on past review open to object

Also who has the details of the dude that said his app was stucked at NZL Info sharing and got approval after requesting gcms note .. thanks

Many thanks. But what if medical was done upfront?

Tuition not yet paid.Will pay in few days before leaving.

I'm 39 and married.
That was my only attempt but I have previous MSc from Jand over 10years ago.
I had an open mind whether approved or not because I always live with the mentality that Jesus has taken the wheel and that he's on the driver's seat of my life and wherever he moves me can never be wrong for my destiny.

Keep your hope alive because your own miracle, your approved visa is on the way towards you.

You are next to testify.

Right.

Then it can swing both ways. 50/50 chance. Just stay positive. Hopefully it all works out.

Hello, has anyone ever applied to University of Calgary or University of Victoria for Masters? I’ll like to ask few questions. Thanks.

@Oguntola18: the embassy replied me that they still want the statement to be in their format. I found out GTBank supports this new format but my SOA is from FCMB. I still don't have a definite solution yet.

I pm you please check.

Is the request for statement of account ID ticket and password/code from London or Nairobi?

PPR!!!!
I saw a post about people only posting when they are denied visa and not when they are approved and I felt bad because it is actually true. Anyways I joined nairaland after I submitted my application however, I will state what I did to ease my application

I applied on the 3rd of October 2018, did my biometrics on the 9th of October. Then on the 25th of October I checked my portal and sa my medicals has been updated to passed.

[b]I applied online and I did upfront medicals[/b
Then on the 28th of November my eligibility review started, I got a biometrics validity correspondence later same day. Then on the 1st if Decmeber which is a Saturday I got my PPR. I didn’t even know they respond to people on the weekend

Anyways to the important part my documents
SOA of 11m
I paid my tuition of CAD7,800
I put my father’s companies certificate of incorporation. My father was my sponsor
I put his sponsorship letter
My bank statement was for 6 months there was also a letter on the statement from the banks stating my father is the sole owner of the account and some other information I can’t remember
I also put my fathers certificate of ownership for a land
I then put two different valuation documents for a house in lagos and ph

Then for the other information I put my SOP which was very detailed. I studied economics as my Bsc and I’m going for masters in economics which makes my case very easy to explain. I also worked in a good company practicing economy’s
I put my present companies offer letter, WAEC, some NYSC documents because at that time I was still doing my NYSC. I put my transcript, TOEFL result because in one of the forms online I was asked if I had taken the English proficiency exam and I selected yes so It made a lot of sense to include that in my document. I got 96/120 in my toefl.

I prayed and prayed and prayed. I checked my portal everyday until I got the PPR. Thank God for good news. It shall end in praise for every other applicant.

Please can you send me your SOP on chukwuemekaegereonu@yahoo.com

Bros, na Nairobi peeps. our one and only Nairobi.
