See above the email address you have requested. U need to write a very convincing email as why you feel the refusal was not justifiable and why you feel you should have been granted. Convince them that your intentions are genuine, however, be sure you are truthful. I just got my visa approved again today. Submitted last week Tuesday, got a mail yesterday and the parcel was delivered with visa stamped. Hello! Is this still feasible? Sending an email I mean |

Hello everyone! I was denied a Schengen visa to visit France. What is the process of appeal? Is it a letter or an email? |

It’s either you submitted an incomplete document with your passport reasons you didn’t receive an email for 3 weeks now Did you use a courier service or you submitted in person? Also what documents did you attach when submitting? I submitted an incomplete one initially through DHL (I didn’t put the biometric validity letter). so I sent a relative to add the missing document and I also paid the Vfs fees that was attached to it. |

Use the tracking ID given to you on the mail sent to track your package, hopefully you would see exactly where it is. Except you didn’t receive any mail from VFS I haven’t received any mail. It’s been 3 weeks now. |

Hello everyone! Please I need your help/opinion. I applied for visiting visa for my family in December 2021, hoping that my daughter would go with me to resume school in April 2022. However, their visa was approved in January. I sent their passports and my daughter’s visa expires on the 30th of March while the others are valid until 2027. Should I send an email to IRCC or reapply for her as 30th is too close for us to plan a trip. |

Hello Nairalanders! please I need your help. I got my visa in October last year and immediately applied for my kids. Since then, no response. I traveled ahead and left my kids behind because school was resuming in April but it was the hardest period of my life. I spoke with my program coordinators and they allowed me come back home since my courses were virtual.
This is my dilemma: After doing the Canadian life for a few weeks I’ve seen how difficult it’ll be for me to combine school and 2 toddlers (2&4 year olds) without my husband (he’s staying back) and I think I should wait for both of them to be of school age first. Even if I want to come with them, I’ll have to reapply and with all these IRCC long waiting times, the visa may not come in time for me to go with them in September. If I abandon this study visa (it expires in Feb 2023), will I have issues getting a new one when I’m ready (maybe in 2 years)? What would you guys honestly advice? 1 Like |

Hello everyone! Please I need a sample mail to send to IRCC. I applied for my family on December 20th. My travel date is in April but I need to start buying tickets now since I plan to go with my two kids. |

Congratulations! Please what kind of mails were you sending? I want to employ your tactics. Pinkey2021: PPR Alert!!!
Family application of 4. (Applied for family members, a father and 3kids). Purpose: family reunification to join mother and daughter who are international students.
Application date: GC Key - Nov 27, 2021 Biometrics: Nov 29, 2021 (only father & oldest child, other two children are below 10yrs). After 14days and no feedback I decided to try the new portal. Re-application on New Portal: Dec 13, 2021 (After 14days and no feedback I started sending scattered emails now and then, afterwards I noticed eligibility began.
Then nothing again for one month, so I started sending emails again (now consistently morning and night to IRCC Nairobi, from early Feb for about two weeks).
Feb 25: BVL Mar 1: PPR for all 4 of them ( 4days after Bvl).
IRCC likes us to disturb them with emails, lol. Sometimes it’s what propels them to look into your application.
God is great. Thank you Jesus. |

Hello Prince!!! Big photographer fan here ManLikeMace: If you are a self sponsored applicant you need to pay attention to your application even more. I am a photographer and I was self sponsored with no scholarships. I payed half of my first year tuition and also had enough funds in my account for my remaining one and a half year tuition with living expenses for two years. Because I am a photographer I think I had to show that I had the whole money for my tuition saved as nobody would be here to continue my business even though I told them I had a studio here that’ll continue functioning after I’ve left. I also got rejected twice as my gcms notes said they didn’t think spending that much money to study photography was worth it and blah blah blah with some other things like family ties and all that so I had to switch my course to film making and explain from the angle of how nollywood is really growing and the need for more film makers in Nigeria and all that. I also spoke about how there are no good film schools in Nigeria and Africa in general compared to what’s available in Canada in my SOP. I still got rejected sha and because I knew my application was strong I did a judicial review, settled out of court and got my visa.
I also submitted a lot of invoices from work I have done for clients and also submitted the receipts for my camera gear I own just to show that I am really invested in my business. I submitted my business registration (very important) then submitted 3 account statements. One personal, one business and one was a fixed deposit type account with all my study funds in it. For my account statements I used the my VISA bank statement thing so I didn’t have to print out all my bank statements. I just got the slip and uploaded them.
I used my parents and siblings as family ties and didn’t submit any land documents and all that as I no get. I also spoke about how I have an established photography business here that I’ll be coming back to. I submitted my waec certificate but I no go uni so I didn’t have that to submit. I think that was the only educational document I submitted. I also submitted a police report.
Anyway if you are self sponsored I think you have to show you have enough money for at least two years to be on the safe side. I’m not saying this applies to everyone as visas are granted based on the officers discretion.
I hope this helps somebody out there. |
