DPlanB1:Canada is not treating applications for visiting, studying etc, they keep giving different kind of excuses but collect payment for visa fee.. I have applications that was submitted since last year Oct and not yet treated, even another one before the Corona that was March 2020 and not yet treated. What actually causing delay in treating applications is only known to them, UK still remain the best when it comes to treating of visa applications while US embassy are mad as the available date in Lagos is Jan 2024 while Abuja is May 2022 ![]() 5 Likes 1 Share |

It's most likely a scam. I have been a before also. Mine was through an agent called Sisa Travel and Tours with office in Lagos. I wasn't the only one scammed but a whole lot of people. We later reported the agent to the police. He was arrested but later left off the hook for a reason web did not know. Be wise next time! |

I don't believe all those so called Visa agent. My Brother was issued a fake Visa by one of those deadly agents. He went to confirm to discover that he has been scammed and till today, the agent don yakpa. Please be mindful of those evil fraudster. At most I will pay is 250K for assistance from an agent if need be but to do Visa for me is a no no. 2 Likes |

Oga anyone can do bio metrics o your agent applied for visiting visa for you Canada does not issue work visa they only do that when you get a Canadian job offer and the company files for you. in a nutshell you have been scammed |

chaloskyx:The agent should have done studying visa for him cus that one comes with work permit. Come to those that will tell them the truth abt visa applications, but what they want to hear is those that I will keep lying to them as he will promise them heaven and earth and they see the truthful ones as an hungry man.

DPlanB1:Don't conclude its a scam. The annoying thing about nairaland is people that know nothing about a particular issue always rush to say nonsense. Follow up the agent since you know him down to his family and believe me when your story play these scam shouting monickers go flood your dm to ask for your help. |

Not a scam the embassy will get back to you soon...had the same experience |
Re: Is My Visa Agent A Scam? by LeeTaurus05(m): 11:03pm On May 05, 2021 |
DPlanB1: As much as, I've followed comments on this topic. People should be aware that a visa agent, is not an embassy or consulate that issue or grant visa. The moment biometric screening has been captured. The agent or vfs has no power over the application. The embassy reserved the power to determine, whether the visa application will be granted or denied. In a nutshell, the visa agent's job is to fill an application, is not to issue or grant the visa. 2 Likes 1 Share |

richybanky: Have I been to US embassy before? Yes I went there once and won't have to go there again for the rest of my life because I'm now one of there's. Your qualifications don't determine if you will get a visa or not and the day i got my visa over a decade ago, lot's of people right before my turn to be interviewed were denied for reasons i don't know but what stood out was those that weren't looking so well dressed and kind of uninterested with the whole interview stuff got their visas so I have seen it all. Your response didn't even refute what i stated which is this, to be calm and don't appear desperate during the interview. 1 Like |
