What province are you travelling too? I got mine after I filled my province travel authorization form, being fully vaccinated, with proof, I got the letter from them.

At Pearson Airport Toronto (YYZ Airport), I relaxed moved around, was on calls and had friends who were willing to come over, besides there is always some for killing time.

At 1:30am, when I got to St John Airport, my greeter was already on ground waiting for me, a friend had asked if my greeter did not show, that I should call him, also, there are taxi you can pick should you have an address.

My airbnb booking was made online while I was at Pearson Airport, Toronto.

please I will be going to MUN, how did you get your exemption letter,to avoid isolation. Since arrival form said we must provide a quarantine plan

I responded to your email.

My soft landing......Thank you God for journey mercy.


My flight was Ethiopian Airline scheduled for 1:40pm on Friday. It was a 39 hours plus journey.
I and my people had left home as at 9am for checking, as Ethiopian Airline checks in between 8am to 12 noon, mainly to check in on time.

Being a Friday, the airport was already crowded at 10am when we got there, i was asked by the agriculture people if I was carrying food in which I responded in the affirmative, I was asked to open my bag and items, the lady asked me to go.
I quickly made my way through to the profilers, who looked at my passport, arrive Can, enrollment letter, and covid test result. I was not able to print my arriveCan the previous bight as I filled it late, I had to print the copies at 1000 naira each and had to make copies too from the airport.

Documents checked:
1. Arrive can
2. Passport/visa
3. Enrollment letter
4. Covid 19 test result

Afterwards, I weighed my luggage which was cloth luggage (22.75kg), food and other items (25kg+), I was allowed to go on, I was allowed to go on, I wrapped my bags and they were checked in, I got my boarding pass and then joined my family briefly before going onboard.

I was almost passing immigration when those yellow card asked if I had filled, I said yes, but went back and get it fro the woman who gave me my pass, filled it and return to board.

We took off about 2:30pm eventually, and had our first stop over at Addis Ababa for 1hour 50 minutes, we went through immigration so as to change flight, on boarding the new flight, we were airborne at 10:55pm ADD time, for another 8 hours journey and lay over for refuelling for 55 minutes at Dublin, Ireland, we continued onwards after refuelling for Toronto, Canada which took another 7 hours+ and arrived Pearson Airport at 8:10am on Saturday. I scanned my passport, went through security check with Canadian Border Security agents for vaccination status, arriveCan, and passport. I provided my vaccination card and was cleared for immigration checks.

At the immigration, the officer asked how much my tuition was, how much I paid and if I had a scholarship, he asked to see my student portal and timetable. Afterwards he gave my my permit welcomed me to Canada, I showed him my letter of exemption from isolating which he confirmed, gave me directions.

The immigration checks asked for these documents

1. Passport
2. Enrollment letter
3. Tuition receipt

From YYZ (Airport) Toronto, I had a stop over of 12 hours 55 minutes for my connecting flight to St John, Newfoundland.

Had several meal courses from rice to dry bread and butter, to biscults, juice, tea/coffee and other things....I chop am, I paid for it nau(lol).

I found out that my luggage were at dropped at YYZ Toronto, I had to collect them, pick my boarding pass for my connecting flight and had my luggage checked through AirCanada.

I finally got here early this morning, today Sunday....at 1:30am. The temperature was at 0 degree Celsius.

Currently at an Airbnb till I sort out accommodation....

Thaiy is in Canada......to all still expecting, be expectant, be hopeful, do your diligence and trust God. It will end in praise in Jesus Name

Godsfave:
LANDING GIST

Let me start by apologizing for going MIA, a lot of running around.

I got to the Abuja airport around 10am (plenty traffic i wan cry) boarding starts by 11:30am. Met the First Lady who scanned some of my documents (Covid test result and passport), moved to the next queue where they asked what was in my bag and opened to check, the man just scanned through and zipped it back, I moved on to the next queue and the lady requested for my enrollment letter, passport, Covid test result and arrivecan (Omo i filled the arrivecan oo, even printed it out sef) but she said mine had issues and i couldn’t board (in my mind, my village people have found me ooo) she even assigned one of the staffs to help me but to no avail, others had already started boarding and i couldn’t cos arrivecan is a must ooo, finally the lady decided to have mercy and clear me to board without it, I checked my bags in (exact 50kg) I had two hand luggages (a small box and laptop bag) that they didn’t scale or check in. I moved on to board and passed the last groups who didn’t ask for anything asides passport and what are you going for and where. I boarded and we took off, we stopped at Addis Abiba and i boarded another flight to Toronto (we didn’t waste time, just keep reading the signs and locate your next boarding gate) we got to Toronto and first things first, I filled my details into one system and it generated a receipt which i used to proceed,i queued for the first immigration officer who asked for arrivecan and i explained ( he said it’s from the vaccine i took cos I’m fully vaccinated) he asked me to fill on paper this time and that was all, after that I proceeded to the main immigration and it took 1 hour 30 before it finally got to my turn and the lady only asked for passport and letter of authorization, ( she asked which of my courses I’m looking forward to studying and i told her) she printed and gave me study permit, then read the 20 hours work a week rules, omo nobody asked me for how much i had oo or even statement of account wey i carry. ( I had already missed my connecting flight to Vancouver) I went to fly Canada check in and they put me on the next flight which was scheduled to leave in 30 minutes.I had to go pick all my luggages and check them in to my next flight at the Toronto airport, the immigration officer didn’t ask me about vaccine or ask me to quarantine or even where i have in mind ooo(I sha got quarantine update from my arrivecan app and I’ve been filling it daily). I boarded my flight to Vancouver and when i landed there was no more documentation, or anything, I just picked my luggages and ran to my sister. Ethiopian airlines served me 6 meals from Nigeria to Toronto and they were all nice food with any drink of your choice ( I would actually recommend them) plus they had nice movies ooo.

I return all glory to God for making this possible and here is a thank you to my naira land family. Thank you team

Thank you for your gist, be favoured in Canada

Hello People,

It is great to be back, I was banned some 20days ago, my ban just got lifted, nonetheless I have been here everyday, reading through timelines.

To all PPR clinchers congratulations, the maple leaf country will favour us all in Jesus Name.

To those awaiting response, it will end in praise and be favourable outcome in Jesus Name. If you need to get your medicals done, book for it and get the upfront medical done.

For those refused, it is merely a delay, delay is not denial, order your notes to tackle and address the raised concerns by VO. It will end in God's praise.

To those about to begin their their applications, please take time to understand the process, dwell more on page 1, afterwards you can ask your questions and you did get responses to your queries. It will end in praise.

gbemiodula:
Hello everyone

Does this mean my Eligibility has started? because i didn't get any mail from them

Yes, it has.
It will end in praise

BukolaNerd:
Ah, this journey has been a long one. I remember when I started my application, initially I had wanted to do the express entry route but it just was not working out.

On the 25th of April, my friend and I were gisting and he started talking about study permits and I thought, you know, this is the one thing I haven't really considered because I just felt I would never qualify for it. So I went and started to search for schools and eventually I found a school that I just fell in love with, and they are the only School that offer the combination of the program I wanted. I was so happy.


I am happy to answer questions.

Congratulations....... God did it, go and excel in Canada.

Your timeline is fine, and another shorter timeframe for application approval, we have had shorter than a month, in part 18/19. We thank God for His grace covering for you.

The journey requires faith, hope and patience. Anchoring on Jesus for strength and courage.

Welcome onboard to the ministry of help.

KellyKk:

Honestly I don’t know what some VO’S mean by lump sum sometimes. They just made useless decision sometimes . See someone with lump sum in the image I attached and he got approved .

All the best in your next app.

It's grace covering.......and God in action.

Hello TopJim

See the steps I posted in the past in ordering your GCMS notes in the link below

https://www.nairaland.com/6567181/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/521#104384796

You will need someone in Canada in doing this for you. If you still have issues ordering your GCMS after following the steps in the link above, you can contact me for guidance...

Peace

They can get it by themselves, not necessarily using someone in Canada, and the timeframe is same.

nairagrounds:
Help is needed, please!!!

I have a medical request and couldn't book a date with Q Life or IOM.

Please kindly help me with names of universities that offer those courses and give PGWP , I am new on this platform. Thank you all in advance.

My right honourable and Chief @Lekibiboe will get this for you.
Welcome onboard

TheLee:
Congratulations to everyone who just got PPR.
Yaaay.

I have a question please.
How long does it take for Abuja to return stamped passport?
Also I didn’t pay a 2-way postage so what do I do?

A week or less. Once the passport is stamped and ready, vfs will call you, they will say their courier service will get it delivered to you, it comes at a costly amount.

However, you could ask if DHL can come pick it up for you, as this will be less costly compared to vfs one-way return of your passport.

Wait to get comments from others.

Iffylove:
Amen

.

I am rooting for you people......I believe what God cannot do does not exist.

Fortuneforever:
My own refusal love letter came in on September 20th. Applied May 16th.
I had never been more relieved wow! The waiting was worse than the refusal always wondered how I would have coped if I had nothing else doing with my life ohhh ah.
What worried me the most was that I applied without my family the thought of travelling without them especially my kids gave me nightmares, definitely packaging my next application with my kids at least leave my hubby and work as home tie.

I would rest from refreshing mail and and clearing cache hahaha

All the best to everyone waiting and congratulations to the recent ppr holders.

Sorry to hear your were refused. It's merely a delay, please be encouraged and not give up. I quite understand not wanting to leave your kids, that's good, add them in your next reapplication. Order your notes, to know what to tackle when responding. The reasons for refusal needs to be addressed, the gurus here will give helping hands.

Your hubby and work can serve as ties, please do not give up. I look forward to tour testimony.

Jubileefraizer:
