Ibrahim8358:

please I did my biometric Feb 12th and If I don't get any response in this month and next month,what will you advise me to do?

Your application is still within processing timeframe.

Presently, applications submitted in Nigeria take about 191 days to process. If, by the end of next month, you have not heard from them, you can get in touch with IRCC.

In any case, a lot of individuals are applying for travel permits this summer, which will cause delays in the processing of visas.

Hi all,

I wanted to confirm something that my friend just brought to my attention.

I applied for Visitor visa for Spouse and since his passport is 10 years, I was expecting them to give him 10 years and 5 years each for our two kids.

But we were all given 2 years which is the duration of the two year Diploma program.


Is it normal? Or there is an error that we need to contact IRCC about

It's completely normal. Their visitor visas are tied to the duration of your diploma program, which is why they were issued for two years. Your child will get a visitor record when they arrive in Canada that will enable them to stay beyond six months and attend school. However, your spouse cannot work or stay and will have to depart Canada since you are not a master's or PhD student.

You must be new to this Canada visa of a thing. Why do you think people who applied for Canadian visa are rushing to get 10-year passports?
It's not about people rushing it's about reality of the law many people are today in Canada stranded but rushed because people were rushing with visiting visa and believed they can convert it,today canada immigration law is reality and that's what I just pointed out to avoid what I was told VS what is reality
like I said If you have any place where the immigration law guarantees that kindly show me so I can pass it on
Thank you

Don't misquote me. I stated that the validity of both biometrics and passports must be ten years.

In any case, there's no need to drag this out any longer.

You don’t have to worry, even if you submit your passport on the 19th, you have met up with your deadline date. Once you submit to VFS, they will communicate with IRCC. Go submit on the 15th without any wahala jare. Congratulations 🥂

Please I want to know how seeking an extension via visitor record can diminish the chances of getting a visitor visa when it's the IRCC that also approve such visitor extension to applicants based on merit of their case.

Please help me out as I want to be guided.

House34:


I hope you are aware that having a 2,3 or 10-year visit visa does not mean you can stay in Canada for 2,3 or 10 years as a tourist. The maximum stay at any given time is 6 months or less, depending on what the border officer decides. An extension for another 6 months is possible, but it is not automatic and may diminish your chances of returning to Canada in the future.

Thank you all for your inputs

Another thing is that, I heard if you submit 10 year’s passport, you’ll be issued a 10 years visa

Omooo. Is it not better I go do a new passport like this ? Because my current one expires in 3 years time and that means they will give me 3 years visa
Submit your passport, collect the 3yrs. When you get your new passport with 10yr validity, you collect the balance 7yrs. Make sure you time your submission of applications to last one month to expiry of the 3years visa given previously. Alternatively, you can do a new biometric. It is a lot easier and faster, especially with a valid US and Canadian visas. This is from personal experience. Got visa for my balance biometric validity within 21 days last month, June.
Remember, you cannot get your passport renewed with more than 3months validity. Except you want to do something not so nice sha.
Goodluck.

Very simple. You claim in your application that you have a job,family back home as your home tie and going for 10 days holiday in Canada , but suddenly you arrive in Canada and spend 6 months as a visitor. Then you ask for an extension because you need more time to visit other locations in Canada which was granted by ircc , making it 1 year as a visitor. After that, you travel home, stay for 2 months, and then come back to visit again. You may likely be refused entry because you are no longer behaving like a genuine visitor. I have seen that before. The guy even went to Mexico, stayed for 2 weeks, and then came back to Canada, he was refused entry but decided to claim asylum but his case was given expedient hearing date as they see him as suspicious and it all end in asylum rejection after 5 month waiting period and over 2 hours of questioning at the asylum hearing by the judge .

Thanks for this as at today many people with 2years visa who over stayed by staying more than 6months at a stretch of their 2 years visa have been banned and many don't still believe it and worst of it all Canada new immigration policy makes it impossible for companies to give you work on vv but at the end of the day many will not believe it until they try and see

Firstly, delete the current one you filling and start again at the beginning of the form, it appears asking if you are applying as a group. You need to select "Yes" and then choose "Family." This will give you the option to fill out the form for your wife. I just checked, and the online form is still the same for filling out. It seems there was an error on your part. Please check again or follow a YouTube video on how to fill out the Canada visitor application form.
