@NothingDoMe Sorry about the refusal. I believe the solution is to apply alone. Both daughters can serve as your family tie. Your sister inlaw can also stay behind since her ties are not strong enough.

Thanks a lot for your advice.

I also got this mail yesterday, does it mean visa has been approved?

pls kindly confirm when you submitted your application. Has anyone who submitted from July 29th received their passport or update?
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by FYsol: 10:10pm On Aug 23, 2019
lol. Even those whose application has been approved and submitted their passport for visa on the 29th of July is yet to get their passports back. Not to talk of fresh application submitted on same date. Canadian Embassy can be so slow...

Hello house, so I thought I should update you all about my mum's application. After raising several CSE and emails to both London and Lagos Offices, and even VFS Lagos office, we got a reply about 2 weeks after the initial refusal from Lagos VO office that her application has been reopened and same day, her profile was updated and showed that Biometrics completed. Today, her application was approved andher passport was requested. Thanks to @nothingdome and @oriazowan and every other person that reached out.

Timeline:
Submitted online - June 11
Biometrics - June 13
1st Refusal - July 29
File reopened - Aug 9
Biometrics passed - August 9
Application approved/passport request - August 23

Livy2018:
Hello house,

Please I need help and insights from you all here.

I submitted an online TRV application for my Mum on June 11, got letter for Biometrics on June 12 and she did her biometrics at VFS Lagos office on June 13. Her application was never updated. Biometrics never changed to received. This morning I got an update to her account and logged in to see that her application was refused because she didnot comply with the request for Biometrics. Her visa office is London.

This is a bit weird because she did Biometrics and got an email on June 13 VFS titled "Application accepted". Was there suppose to be another email from VFS?

Please whats the best course of action at this point? Raise a Case specific enquiry post-final decision? Write an appeal letter?
I feel my mum's application was not fairly determined, the officer either didnot check thru properly or VFS didnot submit her biometrics, which was paid for, anyways.

Pls your kind and quick responses would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello guru,

There is a column in one of the forms that say" Funds available for my stay(CAD)"

Could it be the money in my account or what I intend spending for my trips?.

Also, after the submission of document online but before biometric, it is still possible to edit and add one or two essential documents to your application ?

Good morning guys,

Please i need help and ideas from everyone,

After my study permit was approved for a 4 years program, I applied for my 15months old son alone and after few weeks his application was rejected based on the following reasons family ties, current employment situation and financial and personal assets.
I am just confused, how can you possibly proof his employment situation, assets and ties to home and Canada? I need ideas here pls... How do I go about these reasons, he is still an infant and can't be left back for too long.. please....
They gave you the study permit knowing you have a 15month old son so I don't believe they expect him to stay behind. Except you told them so. smiley.

Please list the documents you submitted. Please confirm if you showed extra money than what you initially used to apply for your study permit. Also confirm if hubby is going with you.

Thank you for your response, I sent you a PM..

In my application i didn't include him to strengthen my hometie. My program is fully funded, and the account i used was not submitted during study permit application. Lastly, my hubby isn't going with me.
I am working on the document list..


If your hubby isn’t going with you and you’re taking a child along, how would you take care of him/her when you’re meant to be in school? can you afford it?

Did you answer these questions with concrete plans and verifiable evidences? I think you should work on these if you didn’t.

Just my opinion. I have never applied for a Canada visit visa.

If I got you right at all, then genuinely, I would say “thank your stars your own visa wasn’t cancelled”! It is in your best interest to first go resume school before ever thinking of that step again please. THAT’S YOUR MAJOR TIE BACK HOME RIGHT THERE! Visa may have been approved with the child’s abode being a major consideration per why you must always go back home.

Please I need an answer to this. Thanks
yes it is.In 2016 when i applied for a TRV with my family,our family friend and proposed host sent a letter of introduction to the embassy explaining our itinery and how long we plan to visit her.She didnt give us a copy of the letter.After our visas were approved,i saw a copy of that letter in the documents that were returned to me. So yes, a letter can be written by mail to the embassy on your behalf if you find it necessary.

They just asked what I was coming to do in Canada and how long I was staying. I said I was visiting my brother and his family for 2 weeks, and then she stamped my passport and said " welcome to Canada"
