cascas: Hi, google would have easily helped you out with this; CBSA- Canada border services agency POE- port of entry GCMS- global case management system IRCC- immigration refugees citizenship Canada US CBP- US customs and border protection I am sorry to say that your job role must have a designated NOC to use express entry. You can start off your journey as a student, gain some Canada work experience alongside and use the CEH( Canada experience hire) route as this is for people with work experience within Canada. You might have to visit the express entry thread here on nairaland for clarification. Good luck |

My application is 60 days now against 24 days on CIC website. They replied to my mail that they have so many applications now and they are processing on first come first served basis. I guess they are over loaded and overwhelmed with the large numbers of applications at this period. 1 Like |

I'm really tired of this wait. I think May applications will start getting response from this week all the way to September. Honestly their process is quite slow. |

The fact that you need money to your account, is a good pointer to a rejection, suspicious inflows must be explained with evidence, and this is done to avoid the 'crime' of money lodgement. jixasi: |

Wow! Thanks for taking your time to explain. I really appreciate. Thank you. That part of spending company fund is doing me somehow, lol. But I'll try and figure out a way to explain to the VO that I'm not playing with my firms funds. Jawa: |

Pls i want to know if having to have travelling experience is the only key to getting canadian visa. I want to apply for visiting visa for canada for me and my wife but people around are saying my wife and i must have travelling experience before canada can give us visa. Some are suggesting that my wife and i should travel to Dubai or southafrica first before applying for the canadian visa. Please is it true. |

Kendrick56: Hi, buying a ticket before visa issuance is never a good idea and could even be a waste of money. It is not a requirement for a visa. If you're a frequent traveler, you should have known that fully. The Canadian embassy will not jump queues for you if you don't qualify for expedited processing. Truly, I believe if they attend to your application because of your disturbance, it's rather because its your time and documents have been verified and evaluated and just in time to be issued/denied and of course this must be after the processing times have elapsed. For your case, it's either you pull your passport or you modify your itinerary. Good luck |

Kendrick56: In my case, I invited my mother who was leaving for the Uk. I sent an email pleading that they process her application with UK visa attached and flight itinerary. They responded and told me I would get a passport request the next day, which I did. So you can try and plead with them. No harm in trying. |

EBENEZERABAYOMI: Dear EBENEZERABAYOMI, this is not true as Canada and US issue most first time travelers visas. Travel history is a way a VO can assess your ties back home because if you have a history of going to advanced countries and returning, it would mean vaguely that you have something important to come back home to. It would also clear a concern of where you have been to as regards hostile regions. In essence, travel history counts but ties evaluation is a holistic approach. You surely don't have to make meaningless trips especially to SA or UAE as these countries don't even carry weight as far as travel history is concerned in a US/Canada visa application. Take it easy and make your application strong by presenting meaningful documents, your application will be approved. Best of luck 1 Like |

stjsd: Hi stjsd, it depends. If you applied for mainly a business inclined visit like a training or one time conference/symposium, the timelines of your application matters a lot because if this is the only reason you wish to visit Canada, then it has passed and there wouldn't be any need to issue and the VO can refuse the application based on purpose of visit. But it is not always the case as every application is different. But If you then apply to visit friends or family maybe alongside something else, timing will be less considered in that case. It is simple to understand I believe and only you know the entire circumstance in which you applied. Send mails if you believe it may assist your case. Best of luck 1 Like |

mesh2003: Hi mesh2003, timelines matter depending on an application. I know people whose GCMS notes specifically mentioned that. You may need to research on that. If you have a time dependent application and you missed the timeline due to application processing times, even if a VO is merciful and issues, the CBSA officer can still refuse entry. If this is a reunion of family/friends alongside whatever, the case is then different. |

Hello all, good evening. For those who have travelled to canada on visit visas, how were you able to ship your foodstuffs (Palmoil,Garri,etc)? A friend of mine is going to Canada and USA on visit and needs a ''Genuine'' company who deals on shipping foodstuffs to enable them carry foodstuffs to the people hosting them while on visit. If you have any, kindly let me know. Thanks |

Jawa: OK. Am just saying based on student visa applications that are approved after resumption date and family visit visa I guess. I think it might not apply to conferences or business meetings. |
