Yes, it is important for a baby under 5 years of age to have appropriate medical preparations before traveling to Canada. While the specific requirements may vary depending on the country of origin, and for us Nigeria, it is required.

N/B:

Documentation: Carry all relevant medical documentation, including vaccination records, medical reports, and contact information for your baby's healthcare provider. These documents may be required by healthcare professionals/schools in Canada.

Good luck!

Hello Gurus,

Please what do you do when an upfront medical done and sent via webform had been acknowledged by IRCC over 2 weeks ago, yet you get a medical request from same IRCC later? Is it just to resend via webform or contact IOM? or send mails to all known IRCC addresses? or a combination of all the above?

Please it's urgent.

GoldenCrown1160:
Congratulations
It's a positive sign on your application.
The message was programmed to be sent to you on that date despited your have done an upfront medical.
I had the same experience about two years ago.

OkukuOne:
In my view, I highly recommend waiting, considering the remaining validity of his Study Permit is less than 6 months. It would be best to be patient and wait until he applies for the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP). However, you can still gather all the necessary documentation, including proof of funds (POF) from his end or both sides, in the meantime.

Good luck!

THANK YOU SO MUCH WE WILL WAIT.

ANOTHER question is my elder sister wants to send me 1k Dollars to help with proof of funds thru western union. So can i change the dollar and deposit is in my zenith account. And then tranfer from my zenith to my main GTB account? Will i have to print both account statements or i cam just explain the funds as self transfer. Thanks a lot

Good day all. Please how much POF in CAD is needed for SOWP for a single applicant. thanks

OkukuOne:
Not the right platform, sir

Look for LMIA group in Nairaland. Though, i do not know if it exist.

Best of luck!

OkukuOne:
You require a sum of 4k, but it may be beneficial to have an additional 2k as a miscellaneous amount. It is always wise to be prepared for unforeseen circumstances.

According to the IRCC website (https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/study-permit/get-documents.html#doc3), the minimum requirement is 4k for the first dependent, but including a miscellaneous amount is a recommendation I consistently provide.

Remember to prioritize your faith in God above all else.

Good luck!

Thanks alot for your prompt response, just for clarification please.

This is a fresh application that doesn't include the student. Study permit have been granted already. Spouse now wants to put in his application. So is this 4kCAD still the required amount? Thanks

I responded to your email message yesterday, and now you are requesting your attention once again.

It is advisable to atleast demonstrate availability of 4K for spouse and 3k for any other accompanying dependant. Although, i have seen an instance where the spouse alone applied for SOWP without POF and it was approved. Infact the agent that treated the application insisted there was no need for the POF because by the very purpose of SOWP which is the applicant coming to work to support the student or family.

However, to be on the safe side, i will still advise that you demonstrate the 4k living expense.

OkukuOne:
@Accessed, I hold the belief that you do not support or endorse this approach because it can be misleading. The IRCC explicitly outlines the requirements for dependents, and it is important to adhere to those guidelines.

Maybe you should try to call them or chat them online and see if they can give you some concession. I am aware they offer VIP services at a cost though. So you may want to check that out.

OkukuOne:
On a lighter note, disregard the information you encounter on the VFS site. It is unnecessary to schedule an appointment for passport submission. Instead, gather all the required documents, make the necessary transmission fee payment, and utilize the services of Speedpost (such as DHL and UPS) for courier purposes. Pay for the round-trip courier service, and then patiently await the delivery of your passports to your designated address. I have two recommendations to offer:

Opt for the two-way courier service provided by DHL.
If you desire a prompt return of your passport, regardless of where you completed your biometric process, send it to Abuja.

Good luck!
