I have done medicals, waiting for BVL and PPR. I was suppose to resume September deferred to January cause by course was blended(online and offline) although for January they said it will be online only then second semester we switch to blended. U?

ericksen:
Yes, it is generic. got the same from them a few days ago. What stage is your application on, and when are your classes starting?

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Sirromey(m): 3:00pm On Nov 06, 2020
Hmnn. That will be mid November. We will keep the faith.
Eilenora:
Hello. I also sent a mail to them to which I got a response this morning. Witrh what I gather, if your school (like ours) isnt on the DLI list with an approved covid readines splan, u probably wont get PPR. Their response copied below:
Dear Applicant,



Starting October 20, 2020, travel of asymptomatic international students who have the appropriate documents to enter Canada and whose DLI is on the list of institutions with approved COVID-19 readiness plans in place are considered to be non-discretionary and non-optional, unless there is evidence that they are clearly coming to Canada for a discretionary or optional purpose, such as tourism.



You can find out more about this on: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/2020/10/update-on-travel-restriction-exemptions-for-international-students.html



Kindly be informed that our aim is to process your application in priority and all efforts are being made to keep the processing time as short as possible.



We thank you for your patience and understanding in this regard.


So I guess we just wait until when Fanshawe's name is published.

It is well o.

Has anyone with AIP got BVL or PPR after Tuesday? I think IRCC uses Mondays and Tuesdays to send BVL to Nigeria applicants.

Hello Guys

Please I need your help. So I got my PPR a few days back and I will like to seek clarification.

1. Can I take my passport in-person to VFS office in Lekki where I registered my biometrics instead of using courier? Plus am I going to be charged for delivery when I drop my passport?

2. If I will be charged, I will appreciate anyone can tell me how much I should take along with me.

I have attached a screenshot of my application timeline for anyone interested.

Thanks!

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Dampops(m): 6:03pm On Nov 06, 2020
You have to use a courier. Depending on your location, cost is between 1,500-3000.

I think you will have to use a courier, i know DHL is very reliable and you would be able to track the movement of your passport realtime. You can pay addtional charge for insurance of your passort with the courier if you are concerned about the safety of your passprt but i am sure your passport will be well handled.

Congratulations Honorable AY on your PPR

1) No you can't take it to VFS office (Lekki) in person, even if it's the place you did your Biometrics

You have to go to DHL office
@
Isolo Expressway,
near Toyota Bus-Stop/7 & 8 Bus-stop,
New Airport Rd Junction
Isolo
Lagos


There might be other DHL branches in Lagos though, you can google & check for the one's near you

You can also go for UPS

And take note, the DHL Office @ Nahco ,MMIA , Lagos don't courier this type of documents reason is ,they only deal with documents going overseas ,not documents going to Domestic Locations like VFS, Lekki.

2) Yes you would be charged

The courier fee is #1,650 (One Way Courier),
but since you are in Lagos, in case of any miscellaneous/unforseen circumstances, hold more money

When you get to this DHL office at ISOLO, Lagos, the Security man would give you a form to fill.


This is the Address you will mail it to

Canada Visa Application Centre
Ground Floor, The Manor
Plot 110, Admiral Ayinla Way, Lekki Phase 1
Lagos
Nigeria


Documents to go with to the DHL Office

- Two copies of your international passport data page
- Your International Passport itself
- Passport request letter
- Biometric confirmation slip (the document you were given after u did your Biometrics)
-Two copies of signed VFS consent forms

Download the VFS Consent Form Via the link below
https://www.nairaland.com/5818588/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/475#95633153

Put everything in a Big Brown Envelope,

Write your FULL NAME, ADDRESS, PHONE NO. & Email Address on the Envelope boldly


As it has been mentioned here in the forum, Endeavor to go with DHL or UPS 2-way Courier Service
