No I did not use an agent.

A friend who is a citizen invited me for his child christening . He filed and submitted on my behalf

He submitted his own documents to support my application

I submitted :

All place of works documents, promotion and p o f of 10m in addition to my friend financial status and preparation made to sponsor my stay.

I learnt certain things in this application, if you have a valid US visa is the only concrete joker because my other friend with America visa that we apply together does not have up to N1.5 m in his account and it was approved

Child christening ..your purpose of visit is not strong enough..how can u convince a VO that you're leaving Nigeria to attend a friend's baby naming ceremony..those VO ain't daft..they know vividly u ain't gonna return so it's obvious!

I get you right brother

But their permutation was wrong because I don't have intention of staying back. The POF is not even meant for spending because my friend is willing to pay for my expenses as he has done on our previous journey.

My aim is to use the trip as travelling experience before applying for US

Above all, it's the image of Nigeria that is dent that is prioritise above our real intention and claims . They don't trust us

Bro, your application is well-packaged, and you mentioned the main issue: Nigeria's image is tarnished. Even if you provide a 20 million Naira bank account, you can still face refusal with no family in Canada or travel history. God save Nigeria.
But do we blame the visa officer or the majority who abuse the visa, making it difficult for others.If you ask those ones too, they blame Nigeria's hardship as the reason for abusing their visa to claim asylum. So, it's an unending problem cycle.

you can't blame the people that was seeking for asylum......is because of their country issues.... if our country is good,we don't need to be going or running to anywhere...so let keep praying and firing






Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by adeptonlin(m): 5:19pm On Jul 23
I eas able to achieve that becos my PR application was ongoing before I applied for the visit visa. So the PR was approved while in Canada.

According to you, we should keep praying and fasting for those making fake documents and arriving in Canada to make false asylum claims to succeed, despite their actions having a negative impact on other innocent applicants. If I may ask you, which God are you praising to support your fraud, greed, and dishonesty.Please stop associating God with dishonest, fraudulent, and selfish acts!

I understand your point, but let's clarify a few things. Seeking asylum due to genuine danger is one thing, but using fake documents to deceive authorities is another. It's not about judging others but upholding principles of honesty and integrity.
You mentioned we're all sinners and shouldn't judge, but that doesn't justify fraudulent actions. We should strive to do the right thing regardless of our circumstances. Life can be challenging, but dishonesty only creates more problems for others and ourselves.
As a business person, I've always conducted my activities legally and ethically. Poverty or hardship doesn't justify fraud. Nigerians need to embrace honesty if we want the world to respect us. We should stop the collective belief in crime and aim for contentment, improving our lives through legitimate means.
God values honesty, integrity, and righteousness. Let's focus on living truthfully and trust that God will bless our honest efforts. Instead of justifying wrong actions, let's encourage each other to act rightly and with integrity, regardless of our circumstances.

People hide under hardship and challenges to promote fraud, that itself is fraudulent. They just don't care if there action affects others so far they have their way. That is the consequences we suffer from VO and meanwhile such people cannot enjoy last longing success because they will carry that fraud mentality abroad and with strong institutions abroad they are easily caught.

Hardship and challenges is NEVER a justification for wrong doing.

Good morning Boss.i understand your points as well but i want you to realized one thing that,you can't blame civilians because some people graduated to find work in this country is very hard and again poverty of this country changed pupil's mentality......is because you are a business man that's why you were saying all this..... please pray make you don't be in this pupil's shoes... because if some people analyze what he/she is going through in this fkn country,baba you will understand what i was trying to say perfectly and clearly....and the worsted part of this country is that nothing wants to help each other...some people were born to wicked others...okay let's take for instance..... how many people have you help with your business,let me say even your family members,that you picked up to come and learn your business and established them and told them at least them too should establish like 5 5 people each and like that like that like that.....see baba let's just be seeking for forgiveness because nobody is 100% perfect in front of GOD Almighty....some people we have money and you will be begging them to borrow you to run or support your business but they will believe that it's better they give olosho the money than helping you or borrow you...see let just leave everything to GOD and be asking for forgiveness because if we would have met ourselves in Canada we will not be saying all this... baba come borrow me 5m to buy tickets and rent apartment when i get to Canada and find good job,i will refund you back LOL....but you are right with your advice but not in this country oooo

some would definitely find this encouraging.

It's surprising that visit visa takes relatively a couple of months to process, given peoples' accounts i read so far on this platform. More surprising for me because I know of someone who applied for study visa and got approved within a couple of weeks last year.

I think 🤔 your purpose of the visit is crucial. Going for a two-week vacation when you have never left Nigeria before can be doubtful. Secondly, I think a valid US visa can be a great booster . Thirdly who is inviting you can play crucial role . When an established Canadian organization invites you can be a booster .

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by chatmate: 12:55pm On Jul 24
I dunno maybe they just started asking for that.

But if you hold a valid US visa. I know its not required to submit your bank statement. Now maybe it depends on the applicant location. But I know cause I did not see where to put that bank statement tin lol.. not even a single pay slip lol.

Financial strength really? okay didn't know with Can+ you need financial strength.
