Hello All, Congratulations to all those that have received their visa.
As for me, should I be worried as today makes it 108 days that I have submitted our application (my husband, daughter and I). We submitted online on July 30th,2019.

What steps should I take to follow up with VFS?

Gbemzow:
@Cheapone, is your application paper route or online?
Have you gone for biometrics at the visa centre?

@cheapfone
Have u received ur BVL ?

No update whatsoever in my personal email address, my application was submitted by an agent soo i dont have access to the online acc,
Was just told by the agent to wait for the pasport request mail in my personal email.

My Bvl dropped yesterday by 2:04pm. It's now more than 24 hours and I still haven't received an email from Cic, I'm tired of refreshing my email. Because I heard once is more than 24hours or maximum of 48 hours. There will be a greater probability of denial. Please how authentic is this information? Anyone in the house should help please.

Hi guys, trust we are all doing good. Just a quick question please.
I submitted an application for my mum to come visit on the 4th of Nov and she got the biometrics request letter on the 5th. She did the biometrics on the 12th and yesterday she got an email from VFS that reads :
Visa application, tracking ID No. has been received at the Lagos OC VAC on 2019-11-14 09:57:28 AM GMT Standard Time and is on transit to the IRCC Office in Lagos OC ,for processing. Please note this is an auto generated e.mail. Please do NOT reply to this email.

Regards,

VFS Global.

It's confusing because she hasn't submitted her passport neither has she gotten PPR. I'd appreciate it if anyone who has experienced this will help me out.
Thanks.

I believe you are on course, you don't need to panic, this may be a new development from the November 2nd update on their services.

I believe its just a reciept to show they have recieved your complete application, shikena

Hello House, I applied for travel visa since Jane 1, 2019. I'm yet to hear from them. I sent mails, I was told to be patient. So I decided to withdraw the application. Is there any consequences in future if I want to apply again?

January ? or June?

I dont want to think there is any consequence other than you may have to explain why you withdrew your last application when next you are applying.
It maybe be a red flag if you withdrew your application before the average processing time back then, however if it was withdrawn after the normal processing time then you don't have a problem

Ok. Thank you so much.

Thank you. I will take my time to read this

Is it possible for one to go for biometrics without international passport cos Passport is with another embassy. She has a copy of the data page. Anyone?

Good day house,
Please anybody with the Nairaland trend link on how to apply for a Shengen visa?
I submitted a Canada TRV application for my family (myself, wifey & son) on 11th of October & since their timeline is at least 72 days, am thinking of applying for a Shengen visa while waiting for Canada. Pls I need the Trend link so I can read up, I don’t trust all these agents scattered all over Lagos.

@ calypso, I advice you wait for the conclusion of your TRV first because that application processing is faster now as it takes between 40-50 days

Which of the Schengen countries are you interested in so we can advise appropriately. Even if your Canada visa is approved today, you have up to a month grace to submit your passport and most Schengen are approved within a month. Hence I believe you’re good to go if you submit your Schengen application by next week.

Good day house,
My Canada visa was denied on the 11th of September base on the following ground.

I am not satisfied that the following information is truthful. specifically, your answer to question 2(b)of the background information section of form lmm-5257. pls what does this mean.

pls I need help.

@packageman
That is where you nail your leg why not fill it well since you escape ban you can reapply any time but make sure you fill your USA refusal and write a personal letter reason why you forgot to fill it that is all. .
