Hi e-fam, pls what's the current timeline like for getting biometric appointment at VFS? The agent helping my sister mentioned his contact at VFS said there are no available dates till July. Asking her to pay $1500 to secure a date sooner or wait till July. Said I should confirm from people sending applications in now, before I start yelling. |

Please I need help with info on switching courses/school. My sister was advised to apply for a course related to her current job in Nigeria, because her BSc degree was completed 10years ago. Note that she doesn't like her current job (Marketing in a Bank) and would like to switch to a totally different course/career in Canada. She already has admission for a Marketing Graduate Certificate with the help of an agent, as they insist she'll get a refusal if the course is not related to her current job. Next step is for her to pay acceptance fee which is non-refundable, then 1st year fees deposit of 9k CAD by June 2023. My question, can she get another admission in the course she prefers, but apply for a study visa with the Marketing LOA then switch afterwards? At what point would she switch courses? After or before landing? Will she still report to the 1st school and will they refund 1st year fees deposit or it's money wasted? Has anyone done this at Postgraduate level? Please help, so she doesn't waste her time and resources. Thanks in advance |

Thanks for your feedback, this really helps. She's hoping to get the passport in 2weeks which is 14days, hopefully they get it before the deadline. Also, she sent a web form to IRCC informing them of new passport application. YinksXO: |

Hello e-fam, Please if someone submits a new passport in addition to the old passport after PPR, which will be stamped? The applicant got PPR for visitor visa last week and has been trying to get a new passport, because the old passport expires in 7months. Submitting the old one isn't advisable cos IRCC will only stamp 7months. So my question is, do they have to inform IRCC of the new passport details (after they get it) via webform or go ahead and submit both old and new passport? Any response would be appreciated, thanks |

I submitted the documents below, but note that they are both retirees. So upload docs to show proof of business evidence etc. Yes, you need to upload their bank statements as well, even though you're fully sponsoring them. Infact, I still explained large deposits in their accounts in an LOE with evidence attached. 1. Invitation letter from my sister (mentioned my mum & dad will stay with her family for the entire 1month, so accommodation & feeding is covered and they'll sponsor each of them with £1000 for flight to and fro UK) 2. Employment letter, 6month payslips, 6months bank statements showing monthly pay from work for both my sister and her husband. My sister's salary bank statement was low, so I added her 6months savings account statement 3. House ownership docs for my sister & husband, council tax bill, utility bill (water) 4. My sister's birth certificate, pictures of her & family with my dad&mum as evidence of relationship, her marriage certificate, BRP card and passport datapages for her entire family 5. My mum's retirement letter, Pension Annuity letter, 6months savings account where her pension gets deposited, their marriage certificate 6. My dad's 6months savings account showing pension deposits, no retirement letter though...explained in his own LOE that it's missing as he retired over 20years ago, their marriage certificate 7. Under additional docs, uploaded documents to show proof of strong ties to Nigeria (brief LOE written listing docs)....my brother's birth certificate as proof they have a child in Nigeria, current picture of mum & dad with brother, his wife and kids, land property documents, proof of TBills Investment maturing next year 8. Mum & Dad's Nigerian Passport, all old passports and stamped visa pages for all visas old/new This is all I can remember, but I think I covered all docs I uploaded MamaGiovanni: 1 Like |

Travel / Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Eddy4400: 4:04am On Oct 24, 2022 |
Every one will fill the form and pay visa fees separately, also pay for biometrics and self upload documents separately. Just ensure each person answers YES, where it asks if your spouse and/or dependent will be travelling with you and mention this as well in a cover or invite letter. Choose biometric appointment for everyone on the same day...you can also choose appointment times that aren't far apart if you're lucky whiteMandingo: 2 Likes |

Sorry I read this late, the amount is NGN 8,920 to this account - CANADA LOGISTIC COLLECTION ACCOUNT (Account no 0065165839) Sterling bank. Include proof of payment with other documents if sending through courier. If going in person, he'll likely pay cash. Can you pls confirm if in-person submission is now open? purplerain: 1 Like |

I didn't fill this for my parents....your brother is an immediate family member, not extended as indicated on the form. Except your application is somewhat for a different purpose For a visitor's visa, just follow the steps in the new application for immediate family members, almost all forms required are manually filled unlike the old application where you had to attach completed forms. If required, you'll fill this along the line. Oceanfield: |

Yes, it's already stated you'll pay new application fees. Though refunds aren't guaranteed, I filled a webform to withdraw old application and requested for a refund. I also mentioned they've received PPR for new application and included payment reference number for old application Yemisi2015: 1 Like |
