Pls ooo my people, I want to ask a question. I was having a discussion with someone who was nominated by a particular province. According to her application, she mentioned a particular city in the province where her sponsor stays.

Now, the bone of contention is that she will not be staying in that city indicated in her application but another, however she will maintain same PNP province.

Is it right?

I told her she MUST stay compulsorily in the city and province indicated in her application but she is saying her sponsor said it is not mandatory she stays in the city, however it is a must she must reside in the nominating province.

How true is this?

Medicals have not been done yet o. Just the appointment that has been scheduled. [/quote

What I mean is that when you go for the medicals, after taking your pictures, there is a section where they ask for your details which will be printed on the document you will be given to upload as evidence of upfront medical.

Incase nothing is asked about your passport details, just chip it in that you made a mistake while booking appointment. If needed, they should please rectify it.

If not done, the wrong number will be transmitted with your result.

Speaking from my own experience.

Guys, please does it matter if one makes a mistake on passport number while scheduling an appointment for medicals with IOM?? Like instead of 37, you write 36, is that a problem?

It is a problem naaa.
You need to notify them of the mistake and request for rectification before your medical results are transmitted.

Biko it matters, request for rectification biko.

Good morning everyone.

My question is on POF.
I am the PA and I intend to use my salary account which has been building up gradually since the start of the year. However, now that the crs are falling and drawing close to my score, is it okay to make up the balance of the POF in my account by asking my husband to transfer the balance to me before the ITA comes? I have 85% of the money currently and he will be transferring 15% of the total POF which is not a large amount I believe. Will I have to explain this transfer?
NB: My husband and I do not have a joint account.




I and my husband had a similar experience but in our case he was the PA.

A friend in Canada who also went through the process advised I do the below immediately.

1. Open a joint account. We opened a joint account, moved money individually into the account. From my husband's salary account and my personal savings account.

2. Open a fixed deposit. We opened a time deposit investment (fixed deposit) to run for 182days with gtbank. Bear in mind that we opened a joint account with gtbank also for ease of transfer and explanation.to IRCC.

3. We presented the following as POF
*Individual account statement. We did this so as to explain the inflow of funds into the joint account. My personal savings account and my husband's salary account.
*Joint account statement
*Fixed deposit investment certificate
*Pension (25%) for both of us. Individual documents from our pension managers.
*LOE explaining all the above.
*Letter of non-indebtedness

Since you don't know when it will get to you in terms of the draw, you can open a fixed deposit investment.

Just my own opinion on how we navigated.

We have gotten PR.

PS: we indicated that we both had access to the full funds at all times. We both signed the LOE.

Good day everyone,
Please what documents do I need as evidence of sibling in Canada?


If I am getting you right:

1. For sibling relationship: I used birth certificate

2. Proof sibling is a Canadian: I uploaded his citizenship certificate

3. Proof that sibling is in Canada: I submitted his utility bill and account print out.

I hope this answers your question.

I have a quick question about biometric after you must have submitted PR application.

June 27, 2022 Submitted Read

entries
Correspondence
Subject Date sent Date read
Acknowledgement of receipt - Application for permanent residence

AoR was received Junne 27, we havent seen request for biometric


I don't think there is a standard timeline for Biometrics request.
I submitted application on April 11th and got Biometrics request on June 29th.
So it might come in anytime from now.

Maybe they didn’t input your email correctly.



Thanks so much. The barcodes and the link you sent came in handy. God bless you.

Please for those that dropped off their passport at VFS Lagos Office personally, did you get an email acknowledgement for receipt of your documents?
Since I submitted yesterday morning, I haven't gotten any notification from them till now. I even paid for sms, still nothing from that end too.

Good Evening,
When submitting passport at VFS, do one need to pay for transmission fee for kids under the age of 5 who didn't do biometrics earlier. Both parents have their biometric slips.



YES.....I paid for my 2 kids under 5 years. #9,410 each at Lagos VFS!

Good Evening Guys, I got a "Ready For Visa" email 4 days ago (23rd August) but I still have some concerns.

Background story: I have 2 kids, one already updated in my application since 2020.
The 2nd child was birthed in March this year - So I raised a webform to notify IRCC
I applied for Int'l Passport which came out in late July - Raised another webform (included all requirements for dependent child).
I booked medicals for him and the whole family - which was done on the 19th of August 2022. (our last medicals was done in August last year,
although this is updated as 23rd Dec 2021 due to wife Xray being delayed as a result of her pregnancy).

The Issues:
1. My application is still capturing only one child despite completing all the requirement for the 2nd child to be added.(Most Important).
2. I expected the Medicals to have been updated to August 19th 2022.

basically my application remains the same prior to the birth of my 2nd child.

In the interim I have notified IRCC via webform awaiting their feedback. while I have started gathering the documents to be sent to VAC Lagos.

I hope my experience will help you navigate properly what to do.

I got a ready for visa mail on the 25th of July 2022 without my second baby born in May this year reflecting in my application. I had already notified them previously via webform but got no response.

I had to swing into action immediately to facilitate the addition of my baby.

These are the steps I took:

1. I replied them through the RFV mail, notifying them of the existence of my newborn and my intention to add her as an accompanying dependent. I also informed them I had notified them via webform before the mail but got no response.

2. I attached the documents I had available to back up my claims in the mail I sent.

*Birth certificate
*Baby's picture
*NIN slip because I did not have the international passport available
*LOE for medicals with the appointment booking. I had not done medicals for her yet but I had booked appointment with Qlife
*LOE for International passport with application print out and appointment booking print out. She had not been captured yet but she had been booked for capturing. I was working on a reschedule for her because the capturing date was for September 12.
*LOE with documents for updated POF to now accommodate a family of 4 instead of 3.

I got a response via same mail on the 26th of July,that they are writing to acknowledge receipt of my notifications, however I need to resend the attached documents because they are more than 5mb. I had to compress the documents and re-sent them.

I got another response on the 27th of July with the body of the mail stating

*Good day,
Please be advised that the final decision was removed on your application in order to facilitate the addition of your child to your application.
Please do not submit your passports at this time.
You will be contacted in due course regarding the next steps required.

On the 29th of July, I got another mail asking me to check my profile for update as they require some documents from me to complete the addition. I was given 30days to do this, which expires on the 28th of August.

I had to pay extra to reschedule appointment for her capturing and paid another extra to fast track the production of the passport.

I finally got the passport on the 18th of August and I uploaded and submitted all the documents requested of me on mycic account on the 20th of August using the placeholder provided.

I still notified IRCC via same RFV mail trail of the uploaded documents they requested for on the 20th of August.

On the 23rd of August, I got a response from IRCC informing me that they have received successfully the uploaded documents.

On the 24th of August, I got a mail for me to check my profile for a new update. I checked and realized my baby has been successfully added.

On the same 24th of August, I received another Ready for Visa mail which I will be submitting our passports on Monday next week at VFS Lagos.

For now, use the RFV mail sent to you to communicate with them. Webform they delay things. They might see it and they might not. But the RFV mail will definitely deliver directly to your processing officer.

All my communication was through the RFV mail I received on the 25th of July 2022.

The process of addition was very fast for me. I was totally surprised.

I wish you all the best in yours.

In my case, I merged all the documents as one file and uploaded it.

I however had to use a trick because the file was almost unreadable after several compressions. Here is what I did.

I figured (or guessed) that the barcode generated by the form after filling it is the most important part of the form. That's because it contains all the data I punched in the form.

So after filling, printing, and signing the form, I scanned the barcode and signature page different from where I have the other data.

I did medium compression for the barcode and signature pages and then extreme compression for the other pages.

I then merged the two files together and uploaded to my account.

PS: I downloaded a barcode scanner app to double check the information on the file before uploading.

I hope this helps



It sure did, thanks a lot. God bless you richly. Daalu.

Good afternoon all, hope our day is going well.

I got a request letter in mycic account requesting I upload some documents to facilitate addition of my new born.

I thought a section will be created for her to upload documents into placeholders with labels BUT I observed just one placeholder (named replacement documents) was provided under my husband's section who is the principal applicant and it was labeled "KITS, APPLICATION FORMS".

Am I supposed to merge all the requested documents into one and upload?

I am asking because I know from experience with the application that placeholders have size limit.

Please I await your response biko as I am confused.

Don’t send passports. I was in the same shoes and we have the same VO too. Good news is that CIO is really fast. Reply to the RFV mail informing them of the baby and attach all the documents you have ready including the necessary forms. They’ll acknowledge then create a placeholder for baby’s passport. Give them the likely date you’re expecting the passport if possible attach the document that shows capture or collection date so that they just don’t give you a one week deadline.



Thanks so much, God bless you.

Please what do I fill in the section asking for passport details for her in the generic form IMM0008? Precisely passport number, issue date and expiry date?

I think cio is Nova Scotia so maybe try calling them at exactly few mins to 12noon our time to speak to an agent and explain whats up. whatever you do, it's not advisable to send passport before adding baby. if passport was ready now i for say add baby's passport to docs with an LOE and send forms via webform.

Try calling, there's a possibility that your VO is in canada so you'll get to speak to an agent

Any assist on this


1. For iom, you will get their account details and make payment before your appointment date. Their payment is not like Qlife that you pay to book appointment. You book appointment and then make payment. You then take a hard copy of the proof of payment with you on the appointment day.

2. Maybe you are picking a date or time allocation no longer available. Not sure, just saying

Hello all,
A friend has been trying to make payment for his PR application for a week but keeps getting an error message.
It’s not a card issue because it shows error before the payment details page (after signing the declaration).
So he hasn’t even gotten to the card part.
He has tried clear cache, incognito tab & even downloaded other browsers & still no luck. Also filled the technical issues webform and no response yet.
Time isn’t on their side.

Any advice?
