Hello guys, i need clarification on this issue. Can a third party submit passport pursuant to a passport request in an online application? A response is highly appreciated. Thanks

Hi Pointednose, in a nut shell, you can not qualify for a visa with another person’s ties. Unlike the US. USA process, every Canadian visa applicant is judged individually, including minors.
The focus here should be on you and your ties primarily. Not to sound mean, but people leave their spouses or even agree with their spouses when they land to seek asylum and likes. Focus on making the VO understand the visit is temporary. That’s it

Thanks a lot. I appreciate the honest response.

You probably are not entering those details properly.

Meanwhile, worry no more about that 30 days stuff since you have submitted your passport already. You can monitor your passport status to some extent via your GCKEY login (profile).

That doesn’t sound good though. Will advise you do VFS a mail, or chat them up online, or better still show up in that office again to check this situation out.... I won’t underrate your assumption per our naija sister!

@easyxtan,

Can you confirm if you have you passport.

Thanks.

It really long, passport wait and application processing wait are really taking long this day, They should just put the visa sticker and return the passport, just dont understand , just to put ordinary sticker for passport, it hard for them, something that takes 3 working days before now it taking weeks, or was the passport request sent by mistake, they should just sit up in that Lagos office and work.

I will be going there on Friday to check if my daughter passport is ready because i submitted 10th of May.

I went to VFS last Friday and I was told the passport is still with the embassy, if I track it on VFS site , it shows me no record, I will send Lagos immigration an email today asking them why the delay, last Friday made it 2 weeks since i submitted the passport.

I submitted May 3rd! Still nothing. I go to VFS everyday, I’ve sent emails to the embassy with NO RESPONSE! I’m TIRED!
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Dedzstar789: 2:32pm On May 27, 2019
At this point I just want my passport back because I don’t understand why they are holding on to my passport to get just an ordinary stamp! I’ve checked various forums and people who submitted after me have received their passports. If my passport is missing then maybe they should let me know and return it with a Canadian one! IM TIRED!

I guess they are choosing not to reply me. Which is why I’m worried.

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Dedzstar789: 3:44pm On May 27, 2019
It’s easy to say cool down when your passport is not being held for ransom. I had a business meeting in Dubai last weekend, that’s been postponed. It’s been over 3 weeks with everyone else who has submitted after me receiving theirs. Even on the student visa thread people who submitted last week have received theirs. So how am I expected to remain cool?

It’s frustrating. I have other visas to apply for, other trips to go for. It’s summer, i need to travel.

Count 45 days from May 3rd...... That's when you are likely to get a response.
