Hello everyone. I have come to give thanks to God ooo!!!!! He deserves all the praise.

Just got the family ppr and visa (SOWP and 2 Study permit for the kids)

Special Thanks to all those that still keep this thread alive, A big thanks to @Frankrobbn1, @Justmellow, @justwise and @Akannitommy for the advice for my wife’s study visa application and my family’s visa application.

My wife got her study permit approved in November 2020 but she is still studying online here, waiting for the family to get our visa.

Na God ooooo, I want to use this platform take encourage people ooo. Age no be criteria to get study permit or SOWP because I and my wife don old ooo. We are over 40 and this na her third masters ooo.(She had done two Masters before). God can do it for anybody. Thanks.

Here’s my wife’s timeline :

Application: July 22
Biometrics request – July 23
Biometrics done – July 29
Medical Request: July 23
Medicals done – July 31
Medical Passed: August 1
BVL / Passport request: October 21
Passport submission: October 25 (Sent by Post)
Passport posted back: 1st November

Family timeline 1

First Application(SOWP and 2 Study permit for 5 and 10 years old):

Application: November 15
Biometrics request for spouse – November 18
Biometrics done for spouse– November 25
Refusal for family– January 11

Refusal reasons:

1. based on travel history
2. based on my immigration status here
3. based on my family ties in Canada and in my country of residence.

I tried to get the GCMS notes from one of the online agents so as to get a better understanding on why we were refused but as fate would have it the agent sent me a mail that my order was delayed that IRCC sought an extension of 90 days beyond the statutory time limit of 30 days to process the request. This means it will take a total of 120 days.

I have a feeling that my refusal was based on my visa here; because it was to expire in one month on the day I saw the refusal email. So I waited for my office to renew my visa and with faith in God, I reapplied.

Second Application (SOWP and 2 Study permit for 5 and 10 years old):

Timeline for Family 2

Application: March 18
Medical Request for family: April 7
Medicals done for family – April 12
Medical Passed for children: April 12
Medical Passed for spouse: April 26
BVL / Passport request for family: April 29
Passport submission: April 30 (Sent by Post)
Passport posted back: May 11 (Sent by Post)

Special Thanks again to @Frankrobbn1, @Justmellow, @justwise and @Akannitommy and other GURU’s for the advice they give on this platform God go bless una. Thanks.
It ended in Praise.

Hello good people here .. I just realised I didn't upload my birth certificate showing my parents names in my application .. since I used them as sponsors

Do U suggest I send it via webform or directly to any Nairobi mail ?

Gracias

Yes

darey360:
Pls guys what is the best way to request for a nomal bank statement , going to the bank I guess ?

Ahhhh yes of course. Or you can get online but it won't be stamped

Ketima:


Yes. In her case, is through a 3rd party flywire and not directly to the school as they school only pay tuition through flywire

Did you indicate the student number and chose name of school while making this payment. Flywire rate is more expensive than bank or black market but 100% secured

Good morning guys

Please I need a quick response on this issue now

The date on my CAC certificate is September 2021 and am about to do tax clearance certificate So the internal revenue officer told me that the one they are to issue for me will indicate that have been paying tax since 2018

My question now is

If they issued the tax clearance certificate for me now hope the establishment date stated on the CAC certificate won't contradict the date on the tax clearance from VO perspective.

Please I need your quick response

Regards

Hello guys.

Guys I haven't heard anything from the embassy till this day. It is frustrating.. Close to 6 months now. Please is there anyone who is facing the same issue

Good morning all

Please is it questionable by the VO if an applicant is a BSc graduate with first class and is going for PGC and not Masters. Will the VO ask why PGC and not masters

What do I need to do?

Please I need our opinion on this as I'm about applying for study permit and have paid tuition deposit already

I'll really appreciate our response

Hi house, someone tried to differentiate between 'active review' and 'under processing' some few weeks ago. Can someone please refresh if you could remember.

Thanks

Is a 4-page statement of purpose too long? Particularly when there was a lot to explain.

No....2020

Please after your wife got her Study Permit, did she travel immediately or she stayed back in the country?

Hello shefunmi .. you said on the 3rd of December u got a mail to submit IELTS within a month . Since u didn't meet up with deadline given your full application continue immediately after a month. So consider your self January 3rd applicant.
From Jan 3rd to present date makes ur application 4month old. No need to Panic. latest middle next month u will hear from them. Start packing ur load . Hope the message got u well...

Please guys is there anything we can do about the delays, maybe a place we can cry to ... they have to feel hit just the way we are feeling it.. if they don’t want to respond to some applications it is better said than keeping the people waiting for months , how would you keep some one waiting for seven months . That the highest form of reluctant ness in the way dey handle Nigerians... abeg o we have to do something.even if is to cry on Twitter, Instagram any were . We just have to do something.

Bro still expecting your feedback Abeg

Indian did this last year. Protested everywhere, online, vfs and embassy.



They did it and they are reaping it now.


Maybe we start our protest from Asekun. The Nigerian ambassador to Canada,

Nairobi visa office.


Ircc ottawa

Canadian Ambassador to Nigeria.

Marco Mendicino
Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship .


It's getting out of hands. When those Indians were throwing tantrums last year, I was thinking they were killing their chances, never knew the oppression in this country was actually affecting my thinking and reasoning faculty.


They are reaping it now my people.


I am not good with social media, especially twitter.


Someone more knowledgeable should compose and organise how we protest this long wait. We will continue on daily basis till there's a change.


Please don't ignore . It will work.
