Hello house

Please is there any other means of contacting the CIC. I have been emailing them as regards to my application that will complete 12 months by June 1, no decision has been made on my application yet not even medical request... 12 months its so frustrating. I don’t think there’s anyone here whose application is as old as mine.. if I can sue this CIC honestly I would. I just need a decision at this moment be it positive or negative I don’t care anymore. I need this decision to get back my tuition fee if the outcome is negative. My admission letter has expired and my school will not refund my tuition fee until they see a refusal letter from CIC..I’m tired please I need help.. I have been emailing CIC 3 times a weeks for the last one month no respond..

litterbug:
You are not alone. Mine is almost 10 months. Still no response from them. I don't know what to do again. I'm still trusting in God sha and hopeful. Anything can still happen.

Okay! Chances are you will be approved since you passed the medicals and subsequently received a biometrics validity letter. Be optimistic! In the interim, accept my congratulations!

Thanks house urgent reply is needed

Majority of applicants do pass their background checks, which can be attested from their GCMS NOTE after a visa refusal. It's very rare to see an applicant who failed this criminal inspection. Meanwhile, it's after the background checks by CBSA that the documents will then be sent to the visa officer's GCMS database for a complete review and a decision to be made on the application. In some cases, eligibility review might start without any update on the applicant's MyCIC account, this doesn't insinuates that the applicant failed their criminal checks, somewhat the blame at times goes to the unexpected system glitch which takes time for the update to be uploaded. Above all, there is no blueprint for this visa processing thingy as applicant's cases differs in spite of the fact that we try our best to gather precise details from successful applicant's timeline.

Caddy123:

Have you ordered GCMS notes? Many applications from June to August being handled at the London office is still under review. I will advise you get your GCMS notes first before taking decision.
I have read of some you got approval after 14months and also of some who don't denied after 11months. Just get your GCMS notes ok. .

My own chip in
She should move to Ottawa or Toronto for summer ONLY to work. If she has any friends (that lives in an apartment) or family member that can accommodate her for the season

Work experience is very very important here.

Relocating to Toronto or Ottawa is highly crazy in terms of cost of living so I will advise her not to relocate.

Her resume should be in Canadian standard, her friends can help her with it, her school employment supports can also help her with it, indeed can also help her with it. But I would advise she should go through school employment supports or friends formats. She should also write a very good ready-made cover letter so whatever work she wants to apply for she would just do a little editing.

In Ottawa ”PeopleReady” employs every day And they have jobs that pay $22 per hr in this summer.

If she wants to come to Ottawa, she should call them and book an appointment with them. then she will be interviewed and write an exam. After the exam, they will congratulate her.

There are surplus jobs in Toronto, Ottawa and BC but the cost of living is maad.

Hello Austacus, tell me more about this PeopleReady stuff. I really need to get something during the summer. I plan going to Ottawa immediately I get my passport wednesday.

I just check and noticed I have been issued counterfoil and its valid from 20/05/2019 to 24/01/2020. Maybe as a result of expiry date of my passport.

Austacus:


The one year is not a result of your passport expiration if only your academic programme is 1 year.
That's to say your time has started counting now, so it's left for you to use it smartly NO MISTAKE. These people are becoming stingy with this visa stuff. But this your own is certainly as a result of passport expiration cause it's not even up to 8 months. You should have renewed your passport before submitting (anyways, nothing spoil).

For the PeopleReady they are located at 355 Montreal road (still in Ottawa) or you can call them on 613-842-5048 X 1

Don't call them with a number that's not from Ontario or application number

Call and book your appointment.

The landed property document you own does it have a LAND C OF O (Certificate of occupancy)?. It's very important to include a survey plan with your application as it further buttresses the fact that you're the bonafide and legal owner of the landed property. Furthermore, it displays the area and dimensions of the said landed property to the visa officer's comprehension. I would suggest you hire a certified surveyor for a survey plan..
Thanks bro I don’t have c of o but will get the survey plan. Thanks for the assistance

My candid advice is that you should leave no stone unturned.

Frankrobbn1:


When you applied for your Visa what was the normal processing time as at then? Has it exceeded it stipulated time frame? Why order for GCMS note so soon when your application is presently undergoing it's due process? You're better off taking a chill pill and keep yourself busy with other activities while you await a positive response on your application.

Good morning house,
Please I want to ask a question, I have being curious to know if Ghana visa office still process visa application from Nigeria at all. It has been a while since I hear anyone with a correspondence letter stating Ghana visa office.
All we hear is either Kenya, London, or Lagos.
Please has anyone noticed it?
