You are very correct.

I gave him the cheapest he can get with a room shared apartment.

Won't recommend a studio apartment for a new comer looking for a cheap accomodation

you need your physical passport too

Hello everyone , i submitted my TRV application yesterday evening and I just got a mail to do my biometrics .
My passport is at the France Embassy at the moment , I actually just submitted yesterday.

I have a scanned copy of the BioData page of my passport , would that be acceptable or do I need to wait to collect my passport .

Secondly, if I delay in doing the biometrics but within the 30 days specified , does it delay the processing of my application?

In my case I did my Biometrics in Abuja last year and submitted my passport in the same Abuja . I had my yellow Biometrics slip with me but I was still asked to pay transmissions fee despite my yellow slip...the reason the guy gave me was that the Biometrics was done for a previous application. I just paid it to avoid their wahala...Thankfully I've collected my passport although I noticed that no one else has had this experience.

[Update]
Apparently, VFS guys are in it for the money but I guess. they called and told me to mske the 16,540 transmission payment or they'd return my application
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by jesufifunmi: 3:01pm On Aug 11, 2023
So I just picked up my passport from VFS. Below is my application timeline for those who are submitting for visit/tourist visa.

Application submitted- July 9, 2023
Biometrics completed at VFS Lagos - July 17, 2023
Biometrics validity letter - July 29, 2023
PPR - July 29, 2023
Passport submission at DHL in Gbagada - July 29, 2023
Eligibility completed: August 10, 2023
Passport pickup email from VFS Lekki - August 10, 2023

The process, from the day I submitted to the day I picked up my passport took 1 month and 1 day . What God cannot do doesn't exist. I am still in awe of how fast this was because I am not even planning to travel this year, my application says I will be traveling for summer in June 2024.

I do not have any family/relative in Canada. This is my first application.

A friend of mine asked me to get info for him from here but no one responded to my question yet
What are other documents needed at Canada point of entry as a visitor visa holder to avoid deportation ? 🤷‍♂️

U don't need any documents just have ur return ticket and reserved place to stay and cash in hand or bank that will cover for ur intended time of staying in Canada and most importantly know what was filled in your application form and possibly documents what was used to apply with ur application if an agent did it for you. Most of these our agents can put things that will tie you in the future if u don't know

Congratulations, did you have valid visas to other countries ?
Did you have to book an appointment for your biometrics or you just walked in .

Yo!
Get yourself to the altar of fire 🔥, no jokes.

Mum applied in October 2021, two months before I even left Nigeria as a student to Canada, I left Jan 1st 2022 but for her tourist visa, no response for almost 2 years despite reminders.

She started praying with her passport every morning, 7am NSPPD. I reapplied for her by May this year and she continued sending reminders, letting them know that the daughter she's been hoping to visit has even finished school after such a long time.

She finally got a response saying they'll get to her but no specific timeline is set.She sent a message the following week and someone from IRCC MISTAKENLY sent her an email about her case , from the content, we could tell it wasn't meant for her. The person was obviously bringing another colleagues attention to the application.

Finally, her application was on their radar.

Long story short, she got PPR a day before her birthday.
She submitted last week Wednesday at VFS.
She picked up her stamped passport today from VFS .I.e 7 working days processing time.
Her visitor visa expires in 2030 (multiple entry/six months) I.e 7 years..
She didn't pay a DIME for DHL delivery which is supposed to be compulsory, the person in front of her was told to pay the 26,500 (Abuja vfs but, when it got to her, the guy gave to her and said you can go.

What God cannot do does not exist , no jokes...
