Please what is the purpose of the correspondence letter? My own portal did not contain correspondence letter when my PPR was approved today.

Wsx2:


They will give the passport if he didn't chose to be returned via courier .check the ifr document invoiced.if their is no amount to pay then you have stated to pickup yourself when it's ready you just have to print the invoice and go with the tracking number and Id to pick your passport

Please what's the purpose of the correspondence letter? My portal did not contain the correspondence letter after my PPR was approved today. I only have BVL and PPR.

Pls Is it possible to add a personal bank statement after submission of visa application.?

I mean after using one bank statement to apply first, then add more funds to the bank account and print out account statement again and upload/submit.

Pls is this possible and okay?
@johnstan
@wsx2

Nope. Your balance and transaction history at the time you submitted your application is what will be used to judge your POF.
Sending an updated POF after topping up your account will not be considered except you were specifically asked by IRCC to send a new statement

There are two correspondence letters. The first one, a biometric validation letter, is usually issued before or when a decision is made on your application. The second correspondence letter, otherwise known as an Introduction Letter, is issued when they place the counterfoil (visa) on your passport. You must travel with the latter.

Imagine have been served breakfast since November 9th and i did not see it on my portal or get any email from IRCC.

I emailed Nairobi on Monday about my application and they sent me the letter today. 6 months of waiting. Ogaa ooo :'

What type of visa did you apply for (study permit or visitor's visa?


The visa officer is not satisfied that your current employment situation doesn't show you're sufficiently well established and you've also not provided adequate evidence to support your guarantor's income or assets.


Please provide answers to this question and I would advice you appropriately.


It will end in praise

Can you apply for a more relevant course . Like business related tech courses pgd if any also in your SOP talk about your course and your interest and how it will be useful also stated what you have been doing and your achievement so far and sum up all your documents hometies especially is very important like properties companies business jobs investment .... Wife hubby or kids may not be enough as hometies and address what will bring you back home with documents backing it up.the Vo need to be convinced that you will come back home even if you have no plans to come back. Main reason why many who has enough funds yet they still get denied .most were unable to convince the vo that something will bring them back home

Thank you so much, I appreciate, I will try to make adjustment.

God bless you.

Hello All, please I need clarification on this Information:

I am applying for a PGD in Canada for school route and plan to apply for PR after graduation and working in Canada.

My Wife is also applying directly for Express entry via the Visa route.

My question is will the Canada immigration disqualify us ? Since we seem to be using two routes

Please give you honest view ...thanks

Can someone let me know how to apply for GSm notes through CBSA and how many days does it take? Thank you.
