May 27th Applicant. Sowp and study permits for my children. Did upfront medicals

Everyone keep pushing, don't get tired or depressed. If they won't let you sleep, don't let them sleep!. A day before PPR eligibility had not even started.

I did the Travel Authorization too, it seems it expedited the process.

Thank you Frankrobbn1 of fandrglobal.com. God bless you sir

Please for those that have moved to Canada, which airline do you suggest is good to go with considering affordability and quality of service?
@Lekiboboe, @Lianna2020 and others pls suggest

You can start online since IRCC has requested for your medical, your application will most likely be approved.
All the best

MY LANDING GIST!!!!

KLM Flight at MMIA, Ikeja. Lagos to Amsterdam (almost 6hrs layover at Amsterdam Airport), Amsterdam to Toronto.

Got to the Airport 4pm, August 11th

Brought three bags (22kg Clothes, 20kg Food), Laptop bag with my laptop, clear bag having my docs. & some other Contents (chips) inside of it.

Interestingly, the first search port , they checked my first bag which was having my clothes in it, as I was trying to bring my second bag (which contained Food stuffs) , they said I shouldn't bother, was quite surprised. Because i know i might not be able to go out during quarantine, I packed a substantial amount of food stuffs and ready to eat foods such as Peanuts, Chips etc. The second bag i used to pack my foodstuffs was a Traveling bag, am assuming they thought it was Clothes that was also inside that bag. In a nutshell I wasn't directed to Nigerian Quarantine Agriculture service, I went straight to KLM post to check-in.


Documents Asked;
- International Passport
- LOA
- Tuition Payment. Receipt from the School
- Negative COVID-19 Test
- Enrollment Letter was asked but i had only "Travel Authorization Letter (Travel Support Letter)", Enrolment letter wasn't available, my DLI would not give me cos my Program is an in-person and they told me i need to be in Canada in physical, get the STUDY PERMIT before I can be allowed to register. The KLM staff was a bit skeptical about me not having ENROLLMENT LETTER, but only TRAVEL SUPPORT LETTER, I had to show her the e-mail from the school to prove that what I was saying was legit, she called her OGA, the oga sha scanned thru the TRAVEL SUPPORT LETTER and the mail, he was pointing out a portion of that letter to her & told her "I was good to go".

She directed me to another port to check in my luggage, and i met another lady, she asked for my passport, gave me YELLOW card that I should fill it and also write the name of my destination, DLI, Naija Phone number on it, then she gave me my boarding pass (Lagos to Amsterdam, Amsterdam to Toronto)

From there, I sat down somewhere near one Foreign Affairs mini office. I was jejely waiting there, Mumsy, Dad & my Aburo (sisto) were with me. Naxo one man with I.D card just come meet my mumsy say, is she your son, mumsy answer " yes". He come talk say make me i follow am (he looks like a Custom/immigration/foreign affairs staff, wasn't able to see details about his ID, but he be like say he get mouth for that airport, he was on a casual outfit, not in Uniform). He was with some travellers going to Canada as well. Naxo me just follow am, he told mumsy, say make dem give him her fone make he snap us Sharp sharp, telling her that " after this place they are not allowed to follow me to the Immigration section".

Mumsy come dey kinda cry, hug me, me come dey feel emotional but smiling, Daddy and my Aburo (sisto) no cry but we hugged, snapped pictures and said their BYES to me.

So i went through the Naija Immigration section, and it was seamless. This man was in our front all through, I no know wetin him dey follow those Customs guys, immigration guys talk. I guess that man na one ANGEL. I was with my one year Living Expenses in Cash $8K USD (equivalent to $10K CAD), I wasn't able to get PTA for naija bank cos my ticket na ONE WAY.

Naija Immigration guys only asked of my:
- International Passport
- Boarding Pass
- Yellow Card.

He made a stamp on my PASSPORT, collected my YELLOW CARD, gave me back my boarding pass and said I can go.

We went to another port of immigration, commot belt, remove shoes, remove phone, remove laptop put on big tray like that,entered the other side and left.

In a nutshell, I didn't grease anybody hands, nobody asked me for money (anything for the boys), nobody asked "how much is with you" customs seff no ask me any question, i just walk pass them as that man dey go for our front . I was just being attended to like a DIPLOMAT and all was a cruise.

Along the line I saw one cute yarinya (kai walahi odo wun yefe ), his Dad/guardian (an Airport/Aviation staff I guess) was with her putting her thru, na so we gather dey together dey gist till our Amsterdam Flight was called for boarding, but our seat come far, nobody to gist with again

FLIGHT FROM LAGOS TO AMSTERDAM (SCHIPOL AIRPORT)
Flight departed Naija : 11pm , August 11th

Food Was quite OK, Oyinbo Food, chai.... We were served twice. Me just zip my Orange Juice after eating.

Movies Yapa ,
I watched GOLD STATUE (Gabriel Afolayan, Sola Sobowale, RMD, Kalu Ikeagu) but didn't complete the movie, BOB Abishola TV series and WonderWoman 1984

Got to Amsterdam 5am the next day " August 12, we waited till 10.45am (5-6hrs stop over) before announcement was made about boarding the Flight going to Toronto from Amsterdam, we were on queue, the KLM staff there asked for my Docs., told him I was a student.

Showed him my
- COVID-19 Negative PCR test
- Boarding Pass
- Passport
- Travel Authorization Letter

He said I should make sure I show all documents to the CBSA guys at Toronto P.O.E. & he wished me a safe trip

I can count the number of Dark skin passengers on that aircraft, 80% of them were Whites, Middle East & Asians.

FLIGHT FROM AMSTERDAM TO TORONTO

On the KLM flight from Amsterdam to Toronto, we were served oyinbo food, me i just jejely asked for Natural Orange Fruit juice all through to press the food, the food was delicious, and was jejely sipping it (to keep boosting my immune system). I was able to complete the MOVIE (GOLD STATUE) on this flight, also saw the movie "Godzilla vs KingKong".

We arrived Toronto Pearson Airport 12.45pm (journey was 6-hours). We Trekked wella before getting to the CBSA officers check point. There was a machine i visited first with my international Passport (for Scanning) & also answered some questions, and also the machine snapped my picture, when i was through, a white slip was printed out automatically with my picture on it and some other info.

So I was on the queue, met an immigration officer (a Cute woman with a latina-like face attended to me);
she asked me
- why are you in Canada, told her to "TO STUDY"
- International Passport
- Negative COVID-19 Test result
- ArriveCAN receipt.

So on that slip that had my picture in it, she made a remark with a Marker on it, gave me back, and also gave me a Paper having some information about COVID-19.

So I proceeded to the next immigration officer.

He asked for my
- Passport (Gave to him)
- Why I was in Canada?
- Is this my first time in Canny?
- What DLI (School) are you attending?
- ArriveCAN receipt

Within 5-minutes, he printed my STUDY PERMIT, on that letter there was an information which shows I can work as a student & he also gave me a Work permit (Co-op Work permit). In a nutshell i got two WORK PERMITS.

I was directed to an exit, met another immigration officer, he asked how much was with me, I told him $8K USD ($10K CAD equivalent), was trying to bring it out, he just said "you can go"

Went to claim my LUGGAGE, saw my first bag, was intact, saw my second bag containing the food stuffs, the Bag has been opened, zip messed up, the KLM staff come dey apologize say na the people wey arrange my load no do am well, and talk say the few turbulence that happened in the air affected some luggage including mine. i checked if all was intact and discovered nothing was taking cos i get list of everything in a paper.

I am not vaccinated, so i went for my rapid on arrival PCR TEST, they asked if I have reg. on the switch health website, I said YES. So I went to switch health (representing TORONTO) to do the COVID-19 TEST. Afterwards, I.was directed to go get my COVID-19 TEST KIT

Note:
If you are landing at TORONTO PEARSON AIRPORT (YYZ) make sure you reg. at the switch health website so you won't waste your time at the airport.

I connected to their Wifi and got across to my Airbnb host, cos she say make I call her if I don finish with Border officials.

My Airbnb host (a Philippine Woman) come use her OCHARA TEAR RUBBER TOYOTA JEEP come pick me for Airport go the Airbnb Location. She was very nice and welcoming, we gist small sha, and i related to her wella as if we don know each other before, she was enjoying our convo all through, me jz dey use some Geography totori her. We got to the Airbnb Location & she showed me around, her place make sense, bed dey bounce wella, WiFi dey (the speed no be here at all, I come use style remember my GLO network for Naija, wey I go Switch-On the WiFi, climb tree up go out am to receive fast network reception).

So far so good, Quarantine as being dope, na one Israeli guy dey the other apartment , he is fully vaccinated but was staying in a room in that same Airbnb. The guy sha help me change small money, rate was dope sha, come help me buy Groceries. He talk say if I need anything make I holla at him.

All I can say is, GOD TOOK PERFECT CONTROL, journey was long but amazing

I MUST say ORILEDE CANADA is damn amazing" no fire brigade approach from anyone, no body blood dey hot for here. Everyone looks cool , respectful and ready to help, everything na SEMPE SEMPE for here.

I pray for everyone awaiting a decision from IRCC, your Canadian Dreams would come to reality soon & very soon!!!

Peace!!!

Congratulations. I am happy for you

zaunty:
Oh Lord, my God
When I, in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout the universe displayed
Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art

Good evening everyone!
I made a promise to my Jehovah that when he approves my Canada Study Permit Application, I'll sing this song and testify of His glory.

My story is long but I'll see if I can summarize it. Please note that I've been peeping into this forum for close to 2 years now but this is my first time posting. God Almighty had used this forum to bless and comfort me. That's why I want to post my testimony for people to know that God is able to grant them PPR. Receive your testimony and comfort too. God bless everyone who has been contributing to the success of this platform, including the lady that dropped a powerful prayer one night for ppr hopefuls.

When I needed comfort, I always prayed to God and also visited nairaland forum regularly.

Now this is my story:
I'm 41 years and I hold PhD. Sometime ago in 2018, I made a decision to move to Canada through the study route. I applied for diploma and was granted admission. I later applied for Study Permit in March, 2020 but was refused in May, 2020. Now, I see that God Almighty didn't want me to travel to Canada with PhD to do diploma because He has better plans for me.
I was depressed and almost lost hope. But that's not who I am. Giving up is never in my DNA. So by God's grace, I drew strength from JESUS Christ and decided to re-strategize. So by God's grace, in 2020 August, I decided to ignore the fear about stress and rejections from searching for Supervisors for second PhD. Note that I already have PhD degree. So I started sending emails to professors requesting them to be my Supervisor. Just one night retrial, I woke up to see an email from a Professor who scheduled a meeting with me to assess me to know if he'll agree to be my Supervisor. To cut the story short, I was accepted, admitted into the University with full scholarship, including a Teaching Assistantship position. Oh, hallelujah!

Now, the story about my study permit application. Still bearing the anger of the rejection of last year in my mind, I reluctantly applied for study permit. I tried downloading the PDF of the application documents but without success, so I angrily edited the former forms in my computer that I filled last year and submitted to IRCC on the 18th of March, 2021.
Got NSE request on the 14th of April. This put me in a good spirit, so despite all odds, I travelled to write the IELTS exam and by God's grace, I passed and sent it to IRCC on 11th of May. Submission acknowledged on the 12th of May. No information from IRCC till 17th of June when I received medical request. Medical Examination done on 7th of July. Passed on 14th of July.
Correspondence Letter on 9th of August and PPR today, 10th of August.

Note that till now, my eligibility and background check aren't completed and my profile is still showing "we are processing your application".

My Jehovah is great and able. I almost developed high blood pressure, anxiety attack and depression as a result of the process but God Almighty gave me victory and approved my application.
I've sent my passport to VFS today.

May Jehovah listen to your worrying hearts and visit you with good news, including PPR.

Congratulations!!!

MhaameAhenkan:

Please help with the message you sent. As in what did you write in the mail?

nrobi-im-enquiry@international.gc.ca
nairobi@international.gc.ca
nrobi-immigration@international.gc.ca

Yes they do

ademidedavid:
Please does IOM send message when medical case is sent to embassy?

Hi, thanks for your response. After doing all this you said and putting it in the envelope who do you give it to? Or where and how do you send it? Through courier? DHL?

elenewton1:
Copied from Lianna2020: read below.
Abuja address
Visa Application Centre
Sterling Bank Plaza, 3rd Floor
Plot No 1083, Mohammadu Buhari Way,Central Business District
Abuja
Nigeria

Requirement

If you did biometrics in Lagos and want to send to Lagos , no fees is paid .
But If you did biometrics in Lagos and want to send to Abuja , you are paying 7430 to CANADA LOGISTIC COLLECTION ACCOUNT (a/c no 0065165839) sterling bank.
Buy an envelope

put two photocopies of your passport data page

your yellow or white biometrics slip

passport request letter

consent form downloaded and signed

Print out receipts of the 7430 too


Note: you are signing just the second page of the consent form

passport itself

one plain sheet of paper where you can write your address and phone number .

P.S: The consent form is attached here

Sorry I forgot to mention that, the school should have their account details on their website probably payment section or you send them a mail to send it to you because you will need it in filling your Form A.

IntimidationJay:
Thank you, however the bank is asking for an account details or some sort code. That is what he is saying

It's easy, just go to the bank where you have a current account. I used my husband's current account with GTBank.You will fill the form A, then write a letter authorizating the bank to debit his account the amount you want to pay in CAD. Submit along with your admission letter, your certificate, your school fees invoice, and passport data page (all photocopies). I think in 3days, they will debit your account with the money. Also call your account officer to make it fast. When it's done the rexiot will be sent to your email, you can print it and keep whenever you need to show evidence of payment.

Hope this helps

IntimidationJay:
Please I will be grateful, if somebody can respond to this. How can I pay NSCC fees via the international pay platform, or how do I go about it with form A.

Yes I am, though I have not gotten PPR yet. Have you gotten yours?

Nikky6:
Hey!any one going to mount Saint Vincent university this fall too?

Hello everyone, I am trying to upload the medical slip I was given (upfront medical) but I can't find where to do that. Anyone please help

Thank you

EmeeNaka:
lagosimmigration@international.gc.ca
nrobi-immigration@international.gc.ca

Please can you help with the email address you sent the e medical form to? I want to submit mine too

EmeeNaka:
Please send the e-Medical Sheet you got from Qlife to IRCC Through Webform and Email. They will update you.

Ok... Mine is IOM

Amenmay:




My medical is also July 08, Qlife

So that means something is not right. Abi?

EmeeNaka:
Your Background checks should start immediately you submitted your application.

Please what do they check when doing background checks?

nifnifemi:
Please Notify them.

It will only make your application timeline longer but background checks will be done and its might be discovered.

Remember you will still apply for your spouse in future and if your document does not correlate, it might affect your PR application.

I know of someone who did not include siblings correct information while applying for Study permit but it came back to hurt the person while applying for PR.

Canada is a data deriving country, So do it right.

Congrats to all who got their PPR. I am happy for you guys.
I applied on the 14th of May and it's only my biometric that has been updated, although I have not done my medicals(I am booked for 8th july)
I have not gotten any other update.
No eligibility, No background checks nothing. Should I be worried?

Thank you KikkyQ
God bless you

KikkyQ:
https://nigeria.iom.int/

Hello everyone, please can anyone help with the link to book for medicals at IOM? I have not been able to get it directly. Thanks

Ok... Thank you for your response. Will the result of the medical be sent to them directly or will I be the one to send it myself?

buchito1:
Go ahead and do upfront medicals.

It's always adviced here.

Hello everyone
I have done my biometrics on 31st but I didn't submit my application with upfront medical. Should I go ahead and do the upfront medical or wait for IRCC to request for it?
Please anyone with idea of what to do?
Thanks
