Gurus in the house. Help a sister. Please if you mistakenly uploaded your employment letter in the optional document section, how do you delete it.

Or how do you delete an uploaded document on the last page.


Please help sir/ma

Employment documents section: Go ahead and upload your employment documents to this section.

Optional document: If you have a file that you want to upload to this section, go ahead and upload it; the new file will automatically delete any earlier ones you have uploaded.

Good morning guys,

A friend booked a free cancellation hotel with his master card with no fund inside, 10 days after the booking, the hotel sent him message that the hotel reservation will be cancelled that there is no fund in the card used ..

My question is , does he need to book another hotel reservation?

Note: He has the print out of the hotel booking with him. His travel date is next month.


I think he will be fine since he has a printout of the hotel reservation.

In case they ask for evidence of where he intends to stay and he has a copy of his hotel reservations to show, I don't think they will call the hotel to confirm.

Don't you think that the 5 million naira could be viewed as a lump-sum deposit made in order to apply and obtain a visa?

I believe it would be better for her to keep the cash in her bank account and then give you her bank statement and a letter of support to demonstrate the kind of financial assistance she is prepared to provide you with if your visa application is granted.

I totally agree with you however, my proposed approach is she tops up my stanbic investment directly from her account. The 5m find won't be hitting my regular bank account, and then I plan to just get a reference letter from stanbic showing when my investment account was opened with current balance, this I would submit with my payslips and statements of my 2 accounts gtb and zenith where my salaries have been paid till date.

I hope this approach works, I'm open to comments and contributions from everyone

It will be fine if your bank can write the "Bank Reference Letter" based on your instructions or the way you want it.

Best of luck.

When I couldn't get any date for biometrics in Lagos, I traveled to Abuja for my biometrics

Cal2020:
Thanks to all who have helped to answer my previous questions. I am just figuring out this application myself as I don’t have money to pay agents, hence my many questions. I have submitted and got my letter for biometrics. I tried to book online on VFS global website yesterday for Lagos but I didnt see any availability dates, is this normal? Has anyone successfully booked biometrics by calling the phone number on their website or using the webform? Please someone should guide me on how to book as I need to get this done asap. Any links or numbers to call to book biometrics will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

That’s not normal because the website is supposed to show available dates up to a certain period. It might be a computer glitch.

You can also schedule a biometric appointment through a phone call, or you can do it through chat.

This seem to be the best advice

If the application hasn't been submitted...I would simply delete that application and start a new one.

Or look for additional documents like your lease agreement or a letter of support from your husband that you can upload to the optional document section.

Is better to include all the documents before submission.

If their website is not displaying available dates, then try to book the biometric appointment through phone call or you can also book it through chat.

Does d guy use d Canada visa to fly to Mexico or has Mexico visa?

Foreign visitors traveling to Mexico for tourism, business, or in transit to another destination are exempt from presenting a Mexican visa if they hold a valid visa issued by Canada, Japan, the United States of America, the United Kingdom, or a Schengen visa

Sir, please what about the assylom camp I hear about in canada


My Visitor Visa was approved this morning.
But my passport will expire by 31/ 05/ 2024.

Please house, can I renew my passport in order to extend the validity ? Before the expiration of 30 days ( starting from today) IRCC want me to submit passport for visa stamping.

Will IRCC be able to reconcile my passport number with the new one I'm about to do?

It's worth trying , but upload the new passport BioData page as additional documents and also send a web mail to that regard before you submit your old & new passport and above all pray for favour .
How I wished you started the process of renewal of your passport as soon as you applied instead of waiting til your approval .
Pls ensure you do all you can to get a new passport
I wish you all the best .

Thanks for the reply.
I wanted to see if anyone has done that before, I am scared IRCC might suspect if I start the process of my passport renewal, after my Visitor's Visa was approved?

Or should I just submit it like that?
Because I only plan to visit and see the real situations in Canada for myself.
I plan to go by January 2024. Come back and make application for my entire family for a visit ( If I find out it will be okay for me in Canada),by then I will have renew my passport and re-apply.
Pls guyz I need your advise.
Do I have a better chance of getting another visitor visa by the time my passport expire by May 2024? Inclusive of my family?
This forum has been very helpful to me,I appreciate the contributions and numerous expertise
submissions here. You guyz are truly kind and helpful.
