I have info on all you need
Re: Giving Birth In Canada by marcuskens: 7:01pm On Oct 01, 2019
Did you get refused too? You can actually reapply anytime so long as you addressed the reason for the initial refusal.
Okolinneoma:
Hello ma, I just read up where you said you got denied the first time and got on your second attempt... please How long did you wait before you reapplied? What did you do differently in your second application? Thank you very much.

Re: Giving Birth In Canada by marcuskens: 7:12pm On Oct 01, 2019
Well said @Hotstepper. I used to be active in the main "Canadian Student Visa Thread" before i got really busy. That thread is relatively successful because people come back to share their experiences. Thats the only way this one can stay active/vibrant "
Hotstepper:
I am actually very upset to say the least and I will address ur issues in bullet points so it is clear just like i did months back when something like this happened. And after addressing this issue, I will never address it again even if it comes up 100 times after today.

1. US thread is moving as u want to believe cuz people who have gone comes back to give feedback, how many people do it here?

2. I have never presented myself as a Canada expert, people just believe that cuz I am in Canada and havr direct link to everything which I do not . If you have read this thread,I have put up information that I know etc and it is left for people to read the the thread. I am not here to babysit anyone cuz if information is important to u, it is either u or ur husband will take time to read nd also use google.

3. I am glad u said 3 ppl u know contacted me and never posted here? why didnt they post here? nd if they didnt post here, how did I get to offer them my service if they didnt write me? with the amount of emails I get, I can easily not reply but i do and as I always say to them, all info is on NL and googlr but if I am going to take out my time to do the job then it is not free.

4. As I said before wen someone lashed on me that she is a busy women so cant read nd all and I told her so me ehh I am.not busy. Let me say it again, I am a.wife and mother with a full time job with no.house help unlike most people. I have done my best to be active on this thread to provide information. The other part lies on you people who have come nd given birth to now give feedback.

5. I know how many people I have encouraged to give back to the thread but they refused saying they were not helpef during their own process so let everyone fend for themselves.

6. When you talk about my services, I do not advertise anywhere.or any social media cuz i do not even see it as a job . However, as Nigerians are lazy to.do the work they r seriously in need of, I will.not be taking out time to do thay job for free, I am.sorry. There r information online which is free and everyone has access to it. If they are to use agents in Nigeria, is it going to be free plus these agents r on here on NL taking info.

7. The drs I have provided here for nd the hospita.associated with them aint taking again, why? nobody knows ans nobody wants to find out yet they will reach out thinking I have drs handy I know. Let me say it here, I do.not know any drs and and if u contact me about dr, it is the same google.of which.i spend all my lunch time calling drs. So after spending this time calling drs nd say 1 is successful, shey I will give it for free. Everyone google and call.period. drs/hospitals r hard now cuz people come and not pay cuz they do not have the fund etc .

People run wen i say it is not free cuz those info they can find it themselves..Let everyone know now.since all fingers r posting at me that if u find urself in canada either witjout anybodys help or with an agent nd get stuck, plz always remember to figure it out urself using google or back to the agent u paid. Maybe then, Hotstpper's name will leave people's mouth.

Even people who have family and frienda here say those people.do.not wqnt to help or they have triee and nothing.So of these people have tried and nothing, what makea them think it is easy for me. It is the same google nd keep calling drs. I donnot put gun for anybody neck. I always say ask ur people, read NL and.google but If i am to do thay suffering then it aint free cuz it is not me that thr informstion is important to. I should not be doing all thr work for people and then they relax, where does that happen?

Hava great week.

Good, next time let it be an opinon and leave my name out of it. If I put up drs no here for everyone to see,how is it my problem that people do not come bk. We are people have problem already so each to their own. However, I am.not.going to do that work again of suffering to get a dr to post it here, afterall I am not the one in need of it. Expectant mothers and their spouse should do some work too so just maybe, people come.

Maybe the feedback will start from ur 3 personal friends.

Bluefin:
I am still of the opinion that no body will share their experience if they paid for the service to get the experience. They will feel like well i paid so and so to get the experience so others should go and pay also.

I'm sorry but this is just my opinion.

Well, sorry about the denial. But, if you had shared your profile with us here before you applied, we would have advised you appropriately. Canada is very strict with ttavel travel history. That is one country that if you have never travelled out before, it would be very difficult to get their visa. I have not seen anyone without ttavel history get a canadian visa( i stand to be corrected though). You might have to chill for now and try other countries before reaaplying to canada again
Yes, the travel history is true. However, travel history is one of the parameters used in evaluating an application. It's not an isolated case. If other parameters weigh higher, an applicant might be qualified. We have seen applicant here with no travel history and was given. Again we have seen people here too with travel history to developed countries and even with even valid US visa and got denied. So it's not an isolated case.

The problem now is, even those who meet the requirements are now being denied which in my view is a result of our socio-economic climate.
Re: Giving Birth In Canada by iwuoahsamuels: 10:26am On Oct 02, 2019
Finnalllyyy...I get to give my post as I have been reading and taking notes from page 1. This is because I didnt want to ask questios that has already been addressed.
Thank you to everyone that have TAKEN PRECIOUS TIME to keep the thread going.
I observed that it may be safer to apply for tourist or visit visa while Not pregnant and then get pregnant and arm up with "water tight" documentation and funds and declare intent at POE. Pls correct if this is incorrect, also if I ask a question that has been answered, it must be that I must have missed it. So I had my baby 2018 in USA with B2 declared and shared transcript etc on USA platform. My baby and I have been to S.A and got U.K visa for1 week in November to visit siblings. My husband is a frequent traveler with all valid visas. I'm looking at applying from UK for canada visa not that I am not yet pregnant. Will it increase my chances or speed up duration of the process? Can I start it there and complete in lagos or can it be completed while I am there. Pls gurus, your take on this.
Re: Giving Birth In Canada by Hotstepper(f): 10:47am On Oct 02, 2019
I hope this ur answer is not pointing at me. I have not asked anyone to contact me.It is the responsibility of ppl like u who come to give birth to give feed bk or even reaearxh for drs so ppl.will.havs more options.

I remember one or 2 ppl asked about dr in Calgary. Nobody said anything for a long time. I replied saying i will do.some.calls which i did by googling nos nd calling nd also asked few 2 ppl i know in Calgary nd they said their dr is not taking.

My point is that Hotstepper is nobody"s problem.I cannot be proactive wen I am.not the one in need of the information and people who will do little or nothing.

And I.will.keep.saying it, Canada is not like US.as health systema differ. In Canada u will have to a lot difficulty gettinf a dr nd the ones i did get, what happened? People came and spoilt it nd they stopped.

As I mentioned ealier nd i tell people, go bk to NL nd find information but if I am going to.do that research then i will.charge for it, it is that simple. If u know like am, do it urself.

And I.will continue to say google is ur friwnd esp on this thread that is still growing as Nigerians wants to be spoonfeed. If u ask a question and nobody answers, it is likely nobody knowa it then why not use google..if to.use google.to reaearch about stupid things like BBN, then we become experts.

Have a nice day nd plz.encourage ur fellow people to give back
Bluefin:


That is exactly the point. On the USA thread, people post their experiences because they do not want anything in return.When people bring questions here it is not for us to say contact me directly etc. AS SOMEONE WHO HAS THAT EXPERIENCE THEY SHOULD POST IT. If WE cannot do so for free because you went and researched someones question, please dont post response asking to be contacted. Also kindly stop telling people google is your friend etc. It chases a lot of people from here. In the USA thread people who ask to be connected to directly are people who are either planning to share apartments or have something in common like state of birth. Again this is not a jab at ANYONE in anyway. But if anyone wants to be charging people money to respond to questions on a public forum, the forum is no longer public and now a private venture. Hence the slow movement on this thread.

Hi @iwuoahsamuels, the problem with this approach is that Canada visitors visa duration is at the discretion of the visa officer. One may give you just enough time (eg 6 months) to travel for tourist/visit purpose stated. While another may decide to give say untill the expiry of your passport. There is no "one size fits all" approach on this. As to applying from UK, i reckon you are ony visiting hence you dont have staus there. You will have apply from Nigeria or any location you have status (residence). Lastly having these other country visas you mentioned on your passport will help your application from a travel hisory perspective. Hope this answers your question.

Secondly, as for the ties, you did not mention the documents you submitted. Since you just finished nysc, are you working yet, are you married, do you have landed properties. What documets did you submit to establish your ties at home here. It will be difficult to advise appropriately without this info.
By and large, you have to work on this points raised before you can reapply. Why not look at other countries like schengen to try and boost your travel history

Thanks for that, i think it's just best to work on travel history.
I wish all the expectant mother's success, Canada is more strict now that USA is bouncing a lot of people.
Re: Giving Birth In Canada by Onbami(m): 9:29pm On Oct 02, 2019
That's not true.
My brother was given Visa without any travel history.
He has never left Nigeria for anything.
He applied for Canadian Visa and was given.

I applied June 29 online
Did my biometrics on the 2nd of july
Got a change of status late july (eligibility review and background check in process. )
Now I just received a correspondence letter for the biometrics I did since july. Pls did anyone get this letter n how early or late please. so I can either just forget the process and focus on here. The long timing is really discouraging.
Hi Lol12, have you gotten your final decision? What was the outcome?

This is my argument above. If other requirements weigh higher, a visa might be given.

Hello House,

Please I am 28 weeks gone and I plan birthing in Canada. Does anyone know a good Hospital/Dr in Ontario?

@Hotstepper, been following your write-ups on this. Please I need your help on the processes. Planning to apply visa by next week.

Thank you.
Re: Giving Birth In Canada by Hotstepper(f): 9:41pm On Oct 03, 2019
Congratulations on your pregnancy.

1. You will have to log into Canada immigration website and fill the application form online or you do paper one.

2. You will need to search for Dr that takes international patient if you want to apply for a medical visa.

3. Gather your documents and apply

I hope this helps

Thank you very much.Also, people are now coming to Canada cuz they were refused US Visa nd yet the ones that got information here do not come back to give bk. Hotstepper cannot do it alone as I have given all relevant information I can think of



Lankesolanke:
The difference btw the Canada thread and USA thread is that we do not have enough gurus compared to the USA thread.the only one who seem to be active is trying her best and of course it’s not really an easy job to help everyone in this thread so why not monetize it..
It boils down to people not coming back to discuss their experiences
We hope those of us coming now will be better and willing to grow the thread regardless of what method was used to get the visa
Thank you
