Please does anyone know the best way to reach VFS? My sister sent her passport through DHL more than 2 weeks now and she hasn't gotten any acknowledgment from them. She went there few days ago but they won't let her in without an appointment. Thanks.

Update on the above. I was able to get through to VFS through phone and they have given me her tracking no. Thank You.

Hi Guys, I am a PR and just applied for TRV for my mom on the 11th, she got request for biometrics the next day and she has completed it but her profile hasn't been updated. Unfortunately I didnt follow the new guidelines (putting COVID-19 as reason for travel)for applying for immediate family members when I was applying for her, I have sent an email to that address on their website though but in the acknowledgement email sent to me I realized that email was actually for people who applied before Apr 9th. Please is any other person in this situation and is there anything to be done other than wait.
Thank you

She got her PPR mail yesterday.

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by neni83: 5:27pm On Feb 12, 2021
Did anybody here pay for DHL 2-way courier service? Or is it better to pay one way and pay into VFS acct for their own in-house courier services when the passport is ready
Thank you

Congrats!
Pls when did they eventually upload her biometrics. Was she asked for medicals?

In response to your query, saw this on another Nairaland thread (apparently Abuja Vfs is faster than Lagos but its your preference)
You can also search this thread or Nairaland for those who sent via VFS lagos

Thank you!

Hi Jhoci, it seems you had issue with discrepancies in the DOB on your documents while applying for PR. I'm currently in your shoes. The DOB on my transcript is '96, while every other documents bear '97, including WAEC, passport, and NYSC. Kindly ease put me through how you went about resolving this.

Please house, I made the greatest mistake when I use an agent to apply for my tourist visa. After so many months of waiting, he said he doesn't remember my log in details again. Please is there any way, that I can recover my log in details.

Visiting Canada is somehow discouraged as the cross border travel requirements have been hardened. See below URL.

Hello house, my dad traveled to Canada in 2015 for 10 days. Since then, 2 different applications were denied. They'll say travel history and finances and that sounds really funny. Travel history to Canada, France, SA, UAE, UK and presently has 10yrs UK visa till 2027.

Now, I wanna help him re-apply, not using the usual agent that was used in the past. Can I apply for him in April/May. Is Canada accepting/reviewing tourist applications now?

I don't have details of the previous application from the agent, I guess I will need his UCI number, how will I apply without the UCI number?

UCI number should be on the rejection letter or BVL, I think you should apply for the GCMS note to enable you know the exact reason given in his file by the visa officer which enable you address it properly in your next reapplication

The rejection letter is just a normal generic reply.
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by RxOtunba: 5:30am On Feb 22, 2021
I can"t lay my hands on it right now. Please is it possible to request fpr GCMS note with his passport number alone?

Really serious! You knw how these agents do their things. He created the email address by himself, and I doubt he will still have the details. The denial was in early 2019 or so.
