Congratulations Skull4eva, so happy for you

skull4eva:
My spouse got medical request yesterday. Her upfront Medical expired June 22. Just last week and my two kids got approval on their VV.
Would drop my time line as soon as the medical issue is sorted. The application will be 1year on the 21st of july 2022. Applied since July 22, 2021.

Please I have two questions: 1, Do we still need COVID-19 Test to travel to Canada? 2, If your SOWP is less than 6 months do you need to book a return ticket?

Congratulations skull4eva. I'm so happy for you.
Finally the wait is over.
Please go ahead and quickly do the medical for your wife. All the best!

To everyone still waiting, I pray you receive your good news very soon. Stay hopeful and prayerful!

1. You need covid 19 test to enter the plane but not to enter canada. At the point of entry they wont require covid 19 test from you but to enter the plane it remains a requirement.
2. You do not need to book a return ticket you sowp can easily be renewed within Canada so a return ticket is not required.

Thanks broda. Yours is on the way. Good news await all the applicants awaiting PPR in Jesus name. We must all testify.

You don't need a covid test if you're fully vaccinated.

WHAT GOD CANNOT DO, DOES NOT EXIST!

God has shown mercy to me and my children.

My SOWP and my 3 children's Study Visa applications have been approved by IRCC.

1st Applications

Our 1st applications made in June 2021 were all refused on 25th September 2021. The main concern of the VO, as revealed in the GCMS note, was that my wife, who is a Masters student in BC, filled on her application form that her family would not accompany her to Canada. The VO questioned the truthfulness of my wife's statement in her application, when we now applied for visas while she was still in Nigeria. VO said other things which we considered circumstantial.

I came on this platform then to seek for advice and I really obtained valuable advice from members. What did we do?

2nd Applications

We filed another application on 8th November 2021 with my wife explaining the reasons for her change in plan. We filed additional documents showing strong home ties by exhibition of pictures of our parents, Affidavits of birth of our parents and affidavit of births of my siblings. I also exhibited some share certificates, together with landed property. I showed rent receipts issued to our tenants.

Along the line, my wife wrote her MP sometime in February 2022 seeking for a status update on our applications. The response was that criminality check was passed and nothing more. Our upfront medicals expired in April 2022, but I refused to go for any more upfront medicals. If they are ready, they will contact us. I was drained, both emotionally and psychologically, noting that the journey began in June 2021. I only held on to God, as a lot was at stake.

There was a time I read an email IRCC had sent to someone here requesting for updated transcripts of his student spouse. I took the initiative by sending my wife's updated transcripts sometime in late April 2022. I have a feeling this had a positive impact on our applications.

Boom, medical request showed for my children and I on 16th May 2022. We quickly sent an email to QLife who gave us an appointment in about 9 days later. Medicals were updated to "pass" for my children on 7th June, while they got their PPR on 9th June. For me, my medical was updated to "pass" on 8th June, while my PPR only came today 29th June.

In between my children's PPR and today I sent their passports to Abuja last week Monday and we received the stamped passports yesterday, Tuesday. I almost sent another webform today planning to exhibit my children's visas and seeking a quick response on my application. By 9am today, 2 "donotreply" emails had come into my inbox.

My wife travelled to BC since September 2021, leaving me with 3 active boys, while IRCC kept playing the delay game. Thank God it has ended well.

I wish to say a big thank you to members on this forum who were responsive to my questions at the relevant times. Really appreciate.

To everyone still waiting, hang on there. It's not over until you have won. You can't afford to give up. Keep praying and sending the webforms, the golden emails will surface shortly.

Thank you All!

Wow!!!! Big congratulations @skull4eva.

I will advise you apply for the work permit immediately so that they can link the entire application together rather than treating yours in isolation.

Profgordons:
My Spouse applied for Study Permit, I applied for VV so I could visit during my breaks and VV for two of our kids.

Spouse and Kids got Medical Submission request, mine got “canceled”.

Later got note on the portal requesting I should apply for work permit.

Has anyone experienced this, do I have to wait for Spouse Study Permit to be granted before applying for Work Permit that I really don’t need at the moment.

Initial application was on the new portal and I noticed work permit is only on the old portal, can these two applications be linked?

FYsol:

Many thanks, doing so currently. Would provide update on how that pans out

@skull4eva so we need covid test...what about travelling with kids age 7 and 4 do we all need covid test... called Qatar airline and they said so far i am fully vaccinated we dont need covid pcr test...
I really need to be sure of the lastest update as regards vaccination
they also said if your traveling with a minor and the parent has a work or study permit (or any document that permit a one way ticket it covers that minor too)....minors are at the discretion of the parent status...

skull4eva:


1. You need covid 19 test to enter the plane but not to enter canada. At the point of entry they wont require covid 19 test from you but to enter the plane it remains a requirement.
2. You do not need to book a return ticket you sowp can easily be renewed within Canada so a return ticket is not required.

yea congratulations ...

skull4eva:


Yes it has a 99 percent assurance of approval except the person fails medical.

I am very sure u dont need it at the point of entry but confirm with the airline

My timeline
The journey started in 2020 when i applied for visa for myself and my family together after i got admission for a phd in mcgill. I didnt get funding so i looked for a sponsor who was not a close relative my visa was denied alongside that of my family on basis of funds no travel history and that what was the perosn standing to gain in sponsoring my education. Now i went back to the drawing board decided to reapply alone got some level of funding from my supervisor 18k cad per year then i also got a gift of deed from my parents to increase my financial capacity added the sponsor statement again paid my full tuition for winter 2021 january then reapplied again in december 2020. My visa was approved in my but i didnt travel till july ending. I applied for my spouse sowp while i was in nigeria on 22nd of July 2021 and then the wait started.
Did upfront medicals for her but didnt do for the two kids becos they were both less than 3yrs as at then.
I was scared for 3 major reasons
1. financially becos i only had 5k USD in dorm account, 2m in my naira account and 2.4m in my spouse naira account as well as my sponsorship letter for the application.
2. I applied from nigeria and most gurus adviced against that although immediately i enter canada i sent my study permit as well as sin and invitation letter to support spouse application via webform and email
3. I changed my program from a phd to a masters when i entered and these things made me afraid
When i waited and waited I booked a flight in december to come see my family and made my two kids do medical then. I came back in january hoping to get the news of their approval soon but it took another 6months. Although i sent my flight itenary as well as transcripts and other bursaries and funding i got and even my canada bank statement but they were just acknowledged IRCC didnt work on the file. My Mp started the follow up since sept and he did it till june 15th He is really a wonderful man. He even told me last week that they already put a brought forward date on my spouse sowp file to treat it on july 6 next week.
Lets i forget i sent message to IRCC virtually almost every day and it got to a point in march that dey said i shud apply for my kids vv on the new portal so i quickly applied for my kids and spouse on march 25 2022 yet nothing. I kept on sending them mails and webform infact i sent mail to the minister of immigrations, countless times. On may 2nd my kids application attached to my wifes sowp was withdrawn on the old portal.
Finally, yesterday i think they withdraw my wifes application for VV and approved that of my kids and then sent her a medical request on her sowp portal becos her upfront medical was done june 22 2021 so it had expired i was even thinking it was july so i spoke to one of my bosses @akintommy and he was like to push it IRCC has reviewed it that was why dey requested for another. We have started to find how to get the medical done fast fast ooo so that i can send the passport together if possible.
Sincerely, i entered and came out of depression so many times but Thank God it ended in praises. Nah to start to live the canadian dream remain. Because Canada is like the back yard of heaven. Nigeria is like the backyard of hell. God will answer everyone on the waiting list with PPR.

You do not need a covid test to board or enter Canada so far you're fully vaccinated. Your minors also do not need to be vaccinated to enter Canada as they are still under 12 years

Also, your work permit visa doesn't require a return ticket, one way ticket is all you need and this covers your minors as well.
