These things are in Canada and affordable. You can buy palm oil (& other items you listed) from any African store around you. There’s no need bringing them. (Though palm oil is a bit pricey).

Hello all.

Please is rice, spaghetti, noodles, olive oil, palm oil and sachet tomato paste (in small quantity) allowed in Canadian border?
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by ty01: 4:55pm On Dec 08, 2019
Thanks @makylove101. It guess I will have to include those additional documents you mentioned if I reapply.

makylove101:
So sorry@ty01. I am a bit shocked to hear this especially given all the documents you submitted. I only added school fees receipts for my son as back up. Plus the HMO cards is part of our benefits at the office so I thought i'de throw more light on my LOE since it covers international use as well hence no need for a travel health insurance. I also stated that I wasnt pregnant at the moment and wouldn't be needing any medical services for the trip given that we just had our son in 2018. Maybe that helped...I cant say for sure.

Guys Approval Alert!!!!!!! I wanted to get my passport in hand before I give my testimony!
Okay so I applied to honeymoon with my husband who is a permanent resident. Before I applied, I read numerous stories of how people who applied to visit their spouses get rejected due to the visa officer perceiving they would not return.. so many cases like that and I was shaken but I prayed to God and asked him to go before me as it was not my intention to remain there...I braced up and applied anyway. BVL came after passport request and I was surprised lol ... this just goes to say the procedure is not set in stone as anything can happen before anything.. please see timeline below
Date of Submission -Oct 8th
AOR - Oct 8th
Biometrics Instruction Letter- Oct 9th
Biometrics done- Oct 9th
Eligibility review- noticed on the 6th of November(Not sure when it started)

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by emeify1: 1:27am On Dec 10, 2019
Wanted to ask with respect to deposits in one's account beyond salary amount. How far back should those deposits be before u dont have to explain them? For example, applying towards end of decenber but have an unexplained deposit on October 10th. Though there have been deposit and withdrawal transactions of that amount in d account before.

As the deposit is in October, more than 2 months to visa application, does it still need to be explained? If yes, if it is explained as repayment of a loan offered to a friend (there is evidence of transfer to the friend 2 months earlier), what will be acceptable evidence of this repayment? A letter of agreement between them? Especially if there is no trail from the friends bank account as deposit was from Applicants own account in a different bank not being submitted for the application. Money was actually from sis in law which could be explained as a gift deed but I was wondering how a gift deed would look for a fully employed person earning a good salary. Kindly advise.

Nigeria isn't a part true, but its still a work in progress, who knows next year, so it's worth monitoring.
