No, still haven't gotten any response from them as well.

Please let me no when u get any from IRCC as well.
Thanks.

Good day

Please kindly confirm if you have gotten any response from IRCC as i too applied in Nov last year and i have not gotten any response from them. My agent has even granted me access to track my application myself and she is telling the truth when she says she has not heard from them. I am getting really worried now because every body who applied after me has gotten either approval or refusal.

Hello everyone,

I recently applied for TRV (visit visa) to Canada. Here is my timeline.

August 14 - Application submitted
August 21 - Biometric Instruction Letter received
August 26 - Biometrics completed in Abuja
September 4 - Passport request letter received
September 25 - Appointment booked to submit passport in Lagos

For background, I visited Canada in August 2019 and July 2022. I have a US visa that expired in March 2024. I am assuming the application was processed via CAN+.

Cheers.



Can you please share the documents you submitted please.

Hello,

Below is a list of all I submitted.

a) Completed online application
b) Invitation letter from my friend in Canada
c) Copy of data page of my friend's Canadian passport
d) Six months of bank statements
e) Copies of visas I have obtained in the last five years (US, Canada, UK and Morocco)
f) and of course a copy of my passport data page

I did not submit any Criminal Record check and I did not see it stated anywhere that it was required.

Yes, Canada is overrated because it was rated by you and many fake agents as a paradise! However, Canada is facing its own challenges like any other country, such as unemployment, housing problems, and over-immigration. If you are coming to Canada, please lower your expectations and face reality, as many students are stranded and facing financial difficulties because the initial mentality of working in Canada to pay those crazy high tuition fees is just impossible. Thinking that studying in Canada will automatically lead to permanent residency is not realistic or arriving canada as visit visa to get residency,. This way, you will not overrate it, because Canadians never overrate Canada; it is you who is doing it, selling your property to venture into the unknown.

Dear everyone that has applied for VV
Let me tell you this “Patience is a virtue”.
You sending web forms only show ur desperation.
If you actually want to visit why are you so desperate?
Stop logging into ur my cic account every seconds to check for update because when u login it shows ur last log in time and I believe the VO as psychologist they judge based on a lot.
My candid advice act like you never applied, they will surely get back to you.
I applied since February I’ve not gotten a response and I only check my email I don’t login to cic account.
My friends that has gotten this visa applied and left it.
Use psychology my people!
It’s a game.

I don't understand why some of you will find it worthy to leave Nigeria and stay put abroad no matter the condition over there, but you don't want other people who are equally tired of Nigeria to do same. That's hypocrite.

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Rach86: 6:11pm On Sep 11
Hi beautiful people, please I have a question and I will appreciate every possible answers from gentle minds with helpful answers. A friend applied through an agent, the application was denied. But my question now is, if someone want to reapply in the future, what happens to the email the agent used for the previous application and the ircc account created by the agent that this person cannot access by logging into it. If this person want to reapply in the future, will the person have to register afresh on the ircc portal, and using another email, phone no etc.,hope it won't cause any problem for the new application having know he applied before using different ircc login and email. Thanks in advance and I hope my question is clear enough to get good response.

I dont think so, she is feeling the peole who are over there are just unneccessarily discouraging others but the realities must be said. Who no go no sabi oh. Expectations must be managed appropriately before venture.

What I will advise is dont sell properties to japaa with Visitor Visa, your chances of conversion to work or aduro (Asylum) is less than 0.001%.

However if you are dogged, tenacious and resilient: you can sell your land or any worthy investment invest in 2 yrs Diploma or Masters study that has modern day relevant or apprenticeship program to get 3 yrs PGWP. The Nigerian with the above personality will be able to convert to PR either by Student Connection, PNP or worst case Canadian Experience Class. However, come with at least 60% of your proof of fund. Some of us have to sacrifice staying apart to fund our spouse from home country. It isnt easy but it is worth trying.

Relocating isn’t easy. May the hopes of those waiting not be dashed.
I’ve seen people discourage others whilst moving their families abroad 😂. But in all honesty it’s best done with common sense and a backup plan.

Cos since I've been asked to do biometrics on the 8th of August, nothing is sent
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Rach86: 8:57pm On Sep 11
Yes is true, but you must contact them but I don't know if the webform works for that as well cos complains are sent via webform or something and your case is a bit different. Though I don't have full information to help you but someone will definitely come along and help you out.

Who is attacking you?? You mean people can no longer relocate abroad without selling their properties It's not everybody who relocated abroad sold their properties so I don't understand this much emphasis on selling your properties. So, you don't talk to me like that. If you sold your properties to travel abroad or if you are contemplating on selling them you should understand that it's not everyone that will sell property to japa.
