Can I have your number

Any update? Some people (August and September applicants) are getting pre arrival service mail from Accra VO.

the Consent Letter from at least one Parent, how should it be addressed?
The place is Alimosho Passport Office.

We had earlier used:

"The Passport Comptroller-General,
Nigeria Immigration Service,
Nigeria.

Dear Sir/Ma,

LETTER OF CONSENT FOR THE ISSUANCE OF AN INTERNATIONAL PASSPORT TO..."


It was rejected, and the error message on it is this:

"kindly address your application proper"

Pls for those that received a procedural fairness letter,how long did it take to get a response from Ircc….specifically spousal sponsorship

I just saw this news. I hope all this english will lead to faster timelines

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/notices/advanced-analytics-overseas-family-class-spousal-partner-applications.html

Hopefully this will result in shorter processing times cos the long wait isn't funny. Though the news didn't specify when the new AI tool will be implemented.

Hy everyone, guess we are all doing great.

I got a postdoc research position in Canada to continue my research. My wife stays in Nigeria while I reside in Europe and I want to initiate the visa/work permit application process from Europe with my wife as accompanying spouse. My question now is, is it possible for both of us to get the visa and travel at once?

Please your advice is needed.
