Some applications are not in the system truly. Is it 2020 application?

No 2022 application.....Since last year August.

Approved.They all have their documents number already on the tracker

you submitted your request as a group, right? did you upload just 1 statement of purpose letter as additional document for all of you or you uploaded the letter for each person?
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by josephb(m): 12:52pm On May 11, 2023
You should upload for each person, merge it in the additional documents column.

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by nimwin(f): 1:00pm On May 11, 2023
for example, i'm applying for my husband and myself. I have one statement of purpose letter that contains details for both my husband and I which i uploaded to only my application as additional document. do i also need to upload this same letter that contains details for both of us to my husband's application as an additional document too?

Anyone you choose is fine. I will suggest you include it in both application, the way some VO miss things isn’t funny.
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by nimwin(f): 1:10pm On May 11, 2023
the problem is, i've submitted the application and didnt think of this till now. we're going for biometrics tomorrow. i just assumed that since it's a group application, the same VO will review both applications. is there any way to reach out to have the letter uploaded for my husband?

If you’ve submitted no need to worry, most people that submit group application only write one sop n get approval. It will end in praise.

Please, I want to know if one can apply for work permit with these survival jobs?

Most people doing survival job already have work permit as studemt or resident...working with a tourist visa is illegal in canada and most employer will not want to break the law and getting a cash job to surive in canada is not easy ..do ur research well so you not stranded in canada on a tourist visa

you last sentence. Some people are currently stranded unto this visit visa to work permit thing, compared to the Indians and Chinese we dont have companies that can offer fellow Nigerians job offer , one messaged me on Instagram asking for referrals. But most employers in the job application ask for status in Canada.

So why the policy that people on vv can convert their visa status to work permit in Canada if they can't get any job in Canada?
I don't really understand the rationale behind this policy if employers aren't willing to employ people on vv.

It can be done, just that most companies don’t do it… The advice was just to be on d safe side.. Converting is stressful and can take time, but doesn’t mean it can’t be done ✅

Employers are not ready for the stress of obtaining LMIA, when thousands of people with PR/PGWP/student permit full everywhere.

Thank you for the information. I already have vv but wanted to know if the policy is worth pursuing or to continue to sit in the pool.

I applied for this vv in 2020 and was pleasantly surprised to get a passport submission request.

Someone showed me the policy so I am thinking about whether to take advantage of it.

no thats your interpretation. Sadly many agents have used the policy to mislead people too. Its just an option not that it means there are many employers on ground. If Nigerians have the kind if economic power Indians and Chinese have we would have big companies like them that can be used to offer job offers to our people. Miracles still happen regardless

I don’t see a reason not to try it out and see… you never know, it could work out.. I am sure it worked out for some people, u may get lucky…

But the thing is, don’t put all your hopes on it.. you can also do your own research to find out more.. 👍🏽

Don’t bother yourself you won’t find a job. Everyone I know with a VV attempted to get an LMIA sponsor employment, after six month they all returned home. Healthcare jobs are the easiest to convert from VV to work permit. But currently no one is hiring due to inflation. Things are really bad. These announcements are good on papers, in reality, omo! it’s 2/100.

My husband got his ppr today,but his two dependants eligibility just started after my husband's ppr. Should he wait for them b4 sending his passport or he should send his own passport?

He got 30 days to submit that passport, not likely decision will be made on his dependents before then. He better run to VFS & submit that Pali.
