After seeing my fourth Ghost update on Sunday, I called an IRCC agent on Monday. The agent informed me that all stages had been completed/passed on July 30, 2022, and a note is on my profile requesting the CIO to send the read for Visa email. Again, how much time would wait before I receive PPR?

PanicButton:


In a matter of days depending on the VO. Congrats in advance.

It isn't kindness that makes the system here work. It is the fear of the government. The fear of consequences that come when you fall on the wrong side of the law. The laws are designed to milk you dry with draconian fines if you offend and if you can't pay, or you're a serial repeat-offender, na prison straight. The government officials I've observed do not hate or love you, they feel your pain but are remorseless when it comes to punishing offenders. That's why the mantra here appears to be 'Ija wa, Ija osi... always guiding' which roughly translates to 'bro, err on the side of caution.'

Lagos/PH scenario:
He insults your mother. You 'hook' him on his shirt and a minor scuffle ensues. Passengers come and separate you guys. You go home with a story to tell.

Always, always, always guiding.....

You’re excusing bas behaviour. Period.

Pls guys, Schedule A form for spouse, is it the principal applicant or the spouse that would sign it?

Saynoomore:


You might be right anyways, but that's me for you broda! I find it EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to convict anyone on the basis of a one-sided story (i.e. not hearing the other party narrate his own side. the law calls it 'the right to fair hearing').

In instances like this, I begin to find ways of making a 'probable excuse', and a lot of "perhaps this..", "perhaps that..." etc. sweeps through my mind. For now, it remains a one sided story, and there are two sides to every coin.

How are we even sure the husby is fine where he is? Is it not possible the man is in coma somewhere in Nigeria or under kidnapper's den (God forbid), and we are all here making speculations that he has left his spouse behind, and traveled to Canada?

cooooooks:
Must be AB. IS that the only province that has these automatic ticketing machines?

You or your friend should visit Montreal. Naija crase never reach anywhere. In St.John's, the police will stop you.

TWoods:


That's lying. If the husband wanted to get back at her, he could easily send her passport to Canadian immigration and say she lied that her old passport was lost. She would then be completely screwed.

She can still keep her COPR on humanitarian grounds, she just has to report this fast enough.

Charityjunkie:


It might be lying but it is her best bet to move forward without too much time wasted. Her husband can’t send her passport to immigration because it would incriminate him and support her statement that her passport was “lost/stolen”. He would have to explain what he was doing with her passport in the first place without her knowledge.

Please can a new account be used for POF? Open today and deposit money tomorrow?

cooooooks:
Did someone answer this question?

I am interested in the answer as well.

reichwolf:
Yeah definitely, just explain it in your letter of explanation

Dimple10:
both sign their individual form

Rapture07:


Apparently no one has answered. Though I am checking online to see if there is an answer

jjohndoe83:


There are situations where you make excuses and situations where you don’t. The wife has said her husband travelled to Canada with her travel documents, why are you doubting her story by considering probabilities that have no logical leg to stand on?

Wanting to give benefit of doubt does not mean cooking up wild theories like this kidnapper story under the guise of “what if”. You don’t have to condemn him but you don’t have to disbelieve her and poke unfounded holes in her story either. You will be doing the very same thing you wish to avoid: judgment without information.

cooooooks:
Won't a separate schedule A be fine for the spouse?

So for the principal applicant, he/she signs their own schedule A. When the spouse or child/dependent fill their own, they sign (or sign for the child)?

COPR is here finally
Dropped off Passports at DHL Lagos - 20 June
Arrived at Lagos VAC - 22 June
Dispatched to Accra VAC - 22 June
Received at Accra VAC - 28 June
Received at Accra Visa Office - 6 July
Decision Envelope Received at Lagos VAC - 29 July
Counterfoil Email - 29 July
Passport delivered to us - 2 August

There were no email updates on when the processed passports were sent back to Ghana VAC and from Ghana VAC to Lagos VAC.

The process took about 6 weeks. So if you are really in a hurry to travel, I suggest you try other VOs.

Queenmaker:

Hello. Congratulations on your PPR and COPR. Regarding the passport submission, was it a two-way courier? Like, did DHL pick up your docs for you?
Did you pay any fees to have it sent to Accra?
By VAC, I'm guessing it's same as VFS where biometrics gets done, right?
Thank you in anticipation.

Saynoomore:
Hi guys,
Please I updated my Work History, but I can see the Work History showing "updated", instead of "Transmitted". Should I be worried? What can be done? . It's been so for over 48hours. The site isn't easy to use at all.

musspuss:
I just thought to share these links which may be helpful in understanding a little bit about the recent debates on 'divorce' or 'separation' after COPR:

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/family-sponsorship/spouse-partner-children/track-update-application.html
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/divorce-before-the-landing-and-after-copr.620230/page-3
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/relationship-status-separated-after-receiving-copr.698056/

One major thing I gathered from the information provided by poster and the above threads is that the poster's husband may have committed an offense for NOTHING! He could have very well cancelled her sponsorship/ COPR without taking hold of her documents by simply informing IRCC that he no longer wishes for her to be accompanying spouse because of so and so, and it would have been within his rights IF he didn't claim spousal points. Now, I guess she doesn't have anything to lose by taking up the matter with authorities...and screw him up!

Hello people i’m in a bit of a dilemma and i need the advice of seniors…
my job were i worked in 2013-2015 (i was paid in cash.. i have a salary certificate to that effect .. i know it’s not necessary but i can provide photos of me from years ago wearing the company shirt at the time) .. i also have my employment letter and reference letter from my former Boss.

Now the problem is, i just saw in my marriage certificate dated 2014, in the space asked for Rank or profession, i erroneously filled in “Engineering” because that’s what i studied. i thought that’s what they meant. i have no idea how to explain this. Should i decline ITA? or is there a way out of this.

When i add the 2013-2015 work experience,y CRS is 539 and when i use my current work experience which is 1yr 6 months i’m on 514.
Should i decline and wait for when i’m called at 514? please advice.

Honeysweetest:
