Hello House,

Thank you for all the useful tips and comments on this thread. I will like to know how I can go about this. I am one of those silent June applicants and deferred my admission to September this year. Thank God, I was given a passport request but the problem is my passport is expiring Nov 2019 that is one month after stepping into Canada and one of the passport requirements is that they do not issue a visa beyond the expiry date of the passport.What do I do? Thanks.

Online application
Application: 24th of July
Biometric: 25th July
Biometric receipt confirmation: 27th July.
I sent several messages to London, but kept getting 'your application is actively being reviewed'
Sent London immigration the 4th message on 15th December, exactly 20 weeks, 1 day after submission.
Lagos responded on the 17th saying 'my application is being reviewed' 13 minutes after my application was updated to 'medical requested'
Medicals: 21st December
Passport Request/Medical passed: 28th December - 1 week after medical was done.

I'll be going to get my passport soon.

Hey guys,

I have been a silent follower on this page. I did an online application. My first application. This is my timeline.

Ordered GCMS notes: 19th Nov 2018
GCMS notes came back : 21st Dec
Eligibility review/Medical request: 28th Nov
Medicals done: 4th Dec
Medical passed: 11th dec

After this I didn't hear anything from them. Sent them an email and also laid a complained via webform.

Approval came 10th Jan. I will submit my passport tomorrow.
I want to know from people that have gotten theirs how long it will take for my passport to return. I am worried I won't be able to meet up with classes and all this Jan. But I really want to make it. I am meant to resume in University of Calgary, MEng in Electrical and computer engineering

Documents submitted are;

-International passport

-Letter of acceptance from my school. Including my letter of deferral from Sept 2018to Jan 2019

-Proof of funds: Personally sponsored...My ARM money market (7.3m), savings account (3.6m), dollar account ($ 6913)
The total was about 12m

- Letter of reference from ARM and GTbank

- Certificate of registration of business name (for my sister)
- I did a partnership agreement with a lawyer, showing that I own a share in my sister's company. I did this becos friends advised me to have something strong for home times. I did not have land so I made this partnership agreement and back dated it. Explain in my SOP that I was going to come back to continue running the business with my sister.

- work ID card, employment letter, promotion letter, 6 months pay slip

- receipt of payment for my University of of Calgary application. Also receipt of payment of $500 to the school as admission confirming deposit

- SOP - I used from samples I saw online and a friend's own. Explained that I had a good job but wanted to further my studies to help me move to another Dept of my company. Also explained I had travelled to UAE twice for work training and also to Ghana, Cameroon and Chad. And I also was returned back to Nigeria.

-at the end, I did a summary of my expecting expense for 1year including return ticket to Nigeria. Then I did a summary of how much I had in my account to show that I have enough money.

I attached to my SOP , my CV, bachelor degree certificate and, IELTS result, birth cert, old passport showing visa stamps to those countries I mentioned, UAE visas I got both times I travelled, training certificates I got from the training in UAE.


Thanks to all that share their experiences here. I also hope my experience helps.

I don't know the exact amount that time but it was quite much. I haven't yet submitted the application for the current one.
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 15 by Bracha: 6:27pm On Jan 10, 2019
Hi, I don't know how you can go about this, but I have a suggestion that might work... this is a very big MIGHT.

So, you could get your passport renewed - this can be done in one day, if you go with up to 30k, I think (not so sure about the amount) - then send a CSE/update stating that you want to update the passport number because your passport is about to expire.

OR

You could just submit the passport you have, when it expires while in Canada, you go to the embassy at Ottawa to renew it. grin

A passport photograph, a copy of your international passport and money. Budget 8k. I paid 5k when I did mine. You’d have to drive a hard bargain.
Good luck.

I'm yet to reach that stage,just preparing docs for now.
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 15 by Bracha: 7:13pm On Jan 10, 2019
Sincerely, I have no idea what it's about. But i'm leaning with the name; and assuming it's to ascertain the authenticity of the claims on your application.

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 15 by michelle5567: 7:16pm On Jan 10, 2019
Thank you. I will try this. But from the correspondence letter it is Nairobi that was processing the visa. Should I email Nairobi instead?

I only have this email address Lagos.immigration@international.gc.ca

Please does anyone have any other email address?
