You should know that getting a visa is a privilege and not a right.

The visa officer reserves the right to deny your visa application with reasonable reasons.

While some will see your medical tourism as no big deal, most will flag this as giving birth in Canada is expensive for foreigners and this is where scrutiny comes from.

Order for your gcms notes (Google search : gcms note) and see the exact reason you were denied. This might take anywhere from 30+ days to be available.
Of cos it’s not right never said it was a right, that is why I want to address reasons given for refusal

In your new application, don't use invitation letter from anyone in Canada. Just make accommodation reservation, that disconnects you more from the absconding suspicion.

Top up your account. Let what you have be twice or more of what your travel expense would be. Too little is not good, too much is not great either.

For your travel history, don't dare say that flight phobia thing. You will be exposing yourself - showing that this trip is extremely important. You may make an explanation of having been busy with work/business and the onset of the pandemic and the associated travel bans. You decided to take a go now because you have got some time and you have been fully vaccinated... and bla bla bla.

Demonstrate your ties to Nigeria. There are always some ties. Just accentuate them.

Remember, keep the duration short. Tourist don't spend months. 7-14 days is perfect. Do have a clear itinerary that highlights the locations/attractions you will be visiting.

Good luck.
Oh!!!! God bless you for this guidance, I am seriously taking all to heart, my hubby actually said to reapply without invitation from anyone when reapplying but I was thinking won’t new info contradict previous one and raise more suspicion?

Travel date filled was for 2 weeks sef

Thank you so much

If you have visited 5 countries, how can they still mention travel history as a ground for denying you the visa again. You didn’t mention the travel history on the application?
I actually did, but I was thinking because they are not very recent that’s why this was mentioned, I intend to reapply and include travel history in a letter to explain I returned after all the international travel I made then, even when financial and marital status wasn’t what it is now, then also explain to address Other concerns also

I am very hopeful about reapplying since entire application submission, biometrics and response timeline for my application is under 2 weeks (10th - 23rd Dec) but just need guidance on best approach from the house this time around

I doubt if anyone here can really help you.
You need to address the the concern of the consular officer such as ; financial status and personal assets, family ties in Canada and Nigeria and lastly your travel history. Address all this issues then you might have a chance.
Thank you for your response, advise/suggestions on how those concerns can be addressed is what I am asking about, for instance would it make any difference to find a sponsor or get more funds into bank account to address financial status?

For family ties in Nigeria, I am married, been married for 7 years and this is our miracle child, what other way can I address family ties? For Canada family ties I am not even blood related to the family inviting me so how can this concern be addressed

For travel history my dh is aerophobic so since we have been married we haven’t made any international trip together as the last trip I made to UK in 2014 alone wasn’t a pleasant experience, between 2010 - 2014 at least I visited 5 different countries in UK, UAE and Africa, so how else can I address this to meet up with travel timeline in Feb 2022

Would a supporting letter to give explanation when reapplying be necessary or make any difference?

Thank you sis.
The aspect t

Thank you sis. The aspect that fear me is that after myomectomy and one got pregnant after say 3months, one will have to do operation again for child birth after a year of first operation. I have also heared what you said from someone that did it too.

My question now is
After the first birth from myomectomy and CS, will one have to wait for minimum of two to three years before another pregnancy?

Another fear is that fibriod, cyst , or endometriosis of a thing could still find itself back after long wait before another pregnancy. Except someone use drug that will not make one menstruate for a period of time. Doctor told me that even after myomectomy, he will prescribe a drug for 3 months that will make the root of the fibriod and cyst or reminants or so to dry up but will not make one menstruate.
There is another drug another doctor talked about that will not make those shits stop growing and dry up but will make one to start behaving like a man . It has male hormones. I have forgotten his explaination jare.

Were you giving drugs like that after myomectomy?
Thank you
Hello Sis, I wasn't given any drug after myomectomy to avoid regrowth of fibroid or to even avoid adhesion/ scar tissue although one other Dr I made enquiries from before my myomectomy mentioned something of such.

One thing I know is change in diet by avoiding foods that encourage growth of fibriod will help post myomectomy. Also best option is to work towards achieving pregnancy as soon as possible after myomectomy once you have your Dr's clearance

I would advise you take one step at a time and focus on your immediate needs for now, don't start getting worked up about mode delivery of your 2nd child/ subsequent children now. Situations and circumstances will give best guidance on what needs to be done per time. Also most people usually get pregnant even with fibriods or mostly just require one episode of surgery. It is when there is delay that everything begins to get scrutinised

Hello house, i just received the shock of my life i submitted my online application 10th of December, had my biometric 14th Dec and just received refusal today 23rd Dec, i am shocked because i didn't expect the response to be this fast, could you please advise how i can reapply and meet up with below reasons for refusal? I don't intend to japa, just actually want to visit for child birth around February, i am currently not vaccinated because of govt restriction for pregnant women not to take the vaccine and i applied as a visitor although i got an invitation letter to support my application from a family friend.

Please, please and please i am open to any assistance i can get, i just want to give my child a better opportunity than we have.

Was placed on anti platelets (vasoprin)before pregnancy and during. So I doubt it, aso did on of the anti phospholipids test and it was within normal range…
Do you know of any other test that can be done for that?
I actually don’t know of any other test, vasoprin is actually low dose aspirin, the more intense ones I was referring to is the likes of heparin, lovenox and even intralipids fusion to calm antibodies that may want to attack the embryo/foetus which it sees as foreign body

Is this miscarriage what can we do....pls help.. she has been sad since last night...this morning we did the PT test again and the two spotting...
Hello Sir, spotting is common in early pregnancy but that being said please let her find her way to the hospital ASAP and she needs to stay away from anything stress this period

I am new here, been TTc for the last 5 years..
Please has any one here suffered repeated missed abortions ( early miscarriage when baby stops growing or baby never even grew) and how they overcame it??
Hello Sis, from your description, my thoughts goes to blood clotting disorder just like mama Jellos mentioned has your Dr explored anything on this topic? Antiphospholipid is the most common one that causes early losses like you explained and it is very treatable and manageable in pregnancy

All the best Sis

Good evening mamas.
Please put mouth to my case.

I want to ask of one could take Serapeptase before and after fibriod and cyst operation so as to reduce pain, inflammation, for rapid healing and to avoid regrowth?

I think that Serapeptase works for pains o. My crazy painful menstruation with pelvic and abdominal pain has stopped during usage.

Please how many months after the surgery can one resume sex and become pregnant if there is no other underlying condition?

What can be used or be done or what should be avoided to make recuperation faster?

Thanks in anticipation for your responses.
Serapeptase has blood thinning effect so you should avoid it before surgery you can start taking it around 6 weeks after surgery but I don't think you should or will need to start taking that early except to avoid scar tissues and I will advise low dose sef.

I see myomectomy as similar to CS birth you body needs time to heal well before conception to avoid complications, although my Dr advised to start trying from 3 months after surgery. I conceived 6 months after myomectomy and everything is fine to the glory of God, but you should know any pregnancy before 12minths to 18months after pelvic surgery for most Dr's means automatic CS for mode of delivery as they won't want to take chances with your uterus and contractions

All the best Sis

Good evening mamas, please any treatment you can recommend for an early pregnancy acne/pimples all over her back and breast
Pls let her just romance her package, this was one of my 1st trimester symptoms. I had painful ones all over my neck, chest/collar bone, face and chin, but it cleared out beginning of 2nd tri, though i was using diluted apple cider vinegar as cleanser morning and night which helped it to dry up and reduced the pain, so hopefully it will clear out also for her.

Thanks Mama,I think I just need encouragement,I have been thinking of the whole thing. If I had known,I wouldn't have informed my pastor. Now,it will look like I don't have faith as per pastor's wife but hubby self no even send them. Am just afraid of surgery and how to do with the kids while am away. Hubby doesn't come back till late at night because of hold up.
it is well sis, going for surgery doesn't mean one lacks faith, it even takes great faith to attempt it. I see it as taking care of the body God has given us and don't let anyone make you feel inadequate so long your hubby doesn't mind. God is interested in our well being and doesn't want us to suffer unduly, just pray about it and let God lead you, whatever decision you take after praying will be the best.

Why don't you try and arrange for someone to come help/ take-care of your kids when you are away? and even after your delivery

So my wife is in the first trimester and has been having night sickness, not morning. Every time she eats, at night she feels bloated and ends up throwing up. And the food she eats isn't a lot. Please what can we do to help this? Thank you
Like mama Omakraid said, let her avoid late evening/night eating or she can take light small meals. This was what i did during my 1st tri when i was usually bloated at night with alot of discomfort. most times i incorporate cabbage in my afternoon meal, cos it helps with bloating and i sleep upright with lots of pillows to support my back and sides if i still ended up bloated at night.

Don't worry that is 1st tri palava, it will soon be over. All the best daddy.

Cappo,we are fine o. Just that am confused. I told my pastor about the bladder prolapse and that doctor said if it doesn't go back by tomorrow which is my next appointment,he will book me for C.S next week. He encouraged me to exercise faith that it will definitely go back. Am exercising faith o,hubby is also a pastor but he is already preparing for whatever comes because he doesn't want to take chances. I have also been reading about it but nothing much on it and vagina delivery on the internet. Pls if anyone has idea,just enlighten me more. Do you think I should wait till labour starts and try vagina delivery with faith or I should just go for the C.S? The bladder prolapse is still too there as I type,if open my V,you will easily see it protruding but I feel since I have delivered vaginally twice before,maybe I can try it.
Hello Mama, in my opinion, i don't think you should attempt vag. delivery with bladder prolapse, remember by prolapse it means the bladder is already displaced from where it is suppose to be and v.delivery will definitely put more pressure on it, it may even obstruct baby's passage and eventually lead to other complications which one does not envisage, plus you don't know how experienced your Dr/hospital is with managing such, so my candid advise even if you have faith it will heal is that don't joke with your body just follow Dr's advise and jejely have CS.

I wish you safest delivery, nothing missing or broken in Jesus Name, Amen!!!

It simply means any Nigerian passenger departing from Nigeria and heading to Canada will not be allowed to board. Only Canadians and permanent residents. Please also note that a Nigerian can also be a permanent resident and in such a case he or she would be allowed to board. But if you are a Nigerian and departing from another Country you are good to go as long as you were not in Nigeria in the last 14days before boarding the plane.
So in simple terms it means no Nigerian visitors or Students departing from Nigeria is allowed into Canada for now. But if you are a Nigerian and you have permanent resident status in Canada. You are free to travel from Nigeria.
Your explanation makes sense.

so e.g one can still travel through Ghana, after spending 2weeks and above 1st in Ghana

Good evening mamas in the house, I am sorry I have been away for so long, I needed to work on my mental health so I took a break from ttc, I worked on pcos and now my ovaries are normal, before the break my right ovary healed first, and I hav been ovulating from my right ovary but yet no pregnancy, so this cycle my doctor asked me to do another TVs which I did and both ovaries are normal now, in the past I stimulated with 5mg letrozole and I always had just one follicle, but this cycle I have 4 as of today from 2.5mg letrozole and bitter leave juice.
Getting to meet my doctor she asked me to trigger with hcg shot which she gave me, I am scared because of ohss because on the scan result there is significant fluid in the pouch of Douglas, I use ubth
Please @Sugar and other sabi mamas in the house what should I do I am even scared to bd
Hello Sis, pls use the trigger or ask your Dr if you can use luprolide instead of HCG shot. ohss is usually caused by higher dosage of stimulation drugs especially with ivf.

If you don't trigger and your body doesn't produce enough hormones to hatch/rupture the follicles you stand the risk of having the follicles turn to cysts.

All the best sis
