You may want to get a lawyer to handle this. DONT go to that police station alone. Get a trusted lawyer and see what your options are and be ready to spend some money.

Hello all,I’m in a mess and I need your advice.I know I’ve messed up but it’s my desperation that got me into this.I contacted an agent to help me with my visa application to italy embassy.I submitted all the requested documents with my real statement of account but when I went back to pick up my passport..a letter was sent instead that I submitted some fake documents (the letters from the company he alleged I work with)and my passport and documents will be sent to Nigeria police special fraud unit.
Has anyone been in this situation before ?I don’t even know when the police will contact me cause I don’t know if they’ve got the passport already or yet to get it.I desperately need my passport cause a legit travel opportunity has now opened for me.I don’t know what next to do

If funds is not a problem, i will advise you apply for everybody together with you. SOWP for hubby and vv for your son. Believe me, you dont want to go through the emotional stress of waiting for your family to join you. Best of luck with your application.


Inikay:
Good afternoon to the gurus in the house,
Thank you for your help and assistance so far, please I need your help on this
I have gotten admission into Canada University for a post graduate study but I am confused on how to put in my application.
I have a husband and a son,my question is
1.Should I apply alone and later apply for my son and husband when I get my Visa
2.Should I apply for visitors visa for my son and husband along side my application
3.Should I apply for SOWP for my husband and visitors visa for my son alongside my application .

Please which among the three options is the best and also increase my chances?
Thank you all for your response

Why not download the form separately, fill and sign by both parties and upload with your other docs.

Thank you soo much bro/ma. You are far too kind. And a big AMEN to your prayer.

noeloge82:


If the question is Have you applied for a Canada visa your answer should be yes because you submitted your application before you withdrew , but if the question is have you been refused a Visa application before your answer should be no because , you were never refused Visa but you withdrew your application.

If you want to explain this on your webform its not bad to avoid a situation that it will be seen you are withholding an information , you can go future to explain you answered no because you thought that an application without an decision on it was not valid but after a careful review you discovered you were wrong and hence the correction . You can also state the reason for your withdrawal then .
Good luck in your response, we will celebrate your approval

@Profgordons, @noeloge82, @Kam3, @skull4eva, @Pyale Hello guys, i need the advice of the gurus here. I applied for a Canada Visit visa 2years ago but i cancelled the application.
NOTE: I DID NOT go for biometrics at all. I cancelled the application 3days after i applied and i didnt do biometrics at all.

My question is does that mean i have applied for Canada Visa before knowing fully well they do not have my face or fingerprints on record since i didnt do biometrics.... I have submitted a SOWP application and i answered NO to the question if i have ever applied or been refused a Canada Visa before? Do i need to update and inform them via webform that i applied before but cancelled the application before they processed it?

I need your help guys.....

You can use your existing GCKey to apply for her but both of you need to sign the (imm5713 Use of Representative form). Its a one page form that basically assign you as her representative, and you authorizing her to use your account to apply.

Hi guys, I just got my ppr for study permit application. I await my passport stamping.

What do you mean by Federal Ministry of Health Website. I checked with my yellow card number and passport number on the yellowcardnigeria.com website and my details came up (Name, dob, vaccine name, Vaccine expiry date etc) is that okay?

Also the passport i used for the yellow card has expired and i have since gotten another passport. Do i need to get another yellow card with the new passport?


Tryhard:
Speaking of E-Yellow card, After Scanning the QR and can verify your details on the FMOH website, make sure your name, DOB is the same on your passport, the date of you when you took the vaccine and type of vaccine taken is the same on your yellow card. The High Commission take note of the tiniest details when checking.

Thank you for the heads-up @Tryhard . Do you by chance have suggestions for hotels i can try from your personal experience. Destination is Pretoria.....

Also, is wakanow okay for flight booking or that is not necessary? I used flysaa in the past.

Tryhard:


I’m sorry but hotels.com is a third party booking site which the consulate don’t accept. They expect you to book from the hotel website itself just in case they want to verify if you have any reservations, it will be easy for both consulate & hotel.
Thank you.

Once you upload all required documents, the proceed/submit/continue button should become active. Just click on it and continue to payment. NOTE: That button wont become active until you upload all required docs.

Hello guys, its really nice to be here reading from soo many gurus and all the success stories are quite encouraging. My wife got to Canada 2 weeks ago and i plan to join her soon. I read that SOWP takes atleast of 6months to be processed but visit visa is faster. I will like to ask for the suggestion of the gurus in the house. Should i apply for visit visa and change status once i get to Canada? @Kam3, @skull4eva, @Pyale, @jimogh111 your input is highly needed please.

Please I need to know how to request for my passport back from the Embassy

Do I go to the embassy or VFS in Person?

Or do i do a letter. Is the letter addressed to VFS or the Embassy? What Address?

Content of letter? etc

Applied for visitors visa for 3 weeks, I have other places to go, need to take it out asap

Thanks for the help.


Go to the VFS where you submitted your application, tell them you want to withdraw your passport. Fill and sign the form they give you. Your passport will/should be ready for collection 2days later.

Good luck

They are not fraud bro. It depends on how you arrange your documents and your bank statement must have a reference letter from your bank. I submitted on oct 8 and got mine yesterday. I was expecting my visa to be out within 5 days before but I think it’s due to some delays cos my bank statement is heavy

Arrangement of your documents doesnt have anything to do with your visa issuance. Those VFS guys will arrange your documents accordingly anyways. I have 5 previous SA visas and my last visa was in April. I spent just 10days in SA. Why i said something seem fishy is that i submitted the request for passport withdrawal in Monday and my passport was ready for collection on Tuesday. That seem very strange. I doubt if my passport was ever sent to the Embassy to start with. I might be wrong though. I asked the VFS guy why it is taking soo long to process my visa and he said those that submitted around June/July are having issues. When i asked what kindda issue, he said he doesnt know cos the embassy does not relate with them on such matters.

So they practically abandoned the application of those that submitted BEFORE the Xenophobic attack and are treating the application of those that submitted AFTER the attack. That is a very stupid and senseless thing to do. Like i said, something is fishy between the VFS and the Embassy.

I eventually withdrew my application today after 105 days. I dont have time for this nonsense they are doing. I need my passport for other things. I will post my observation much later. I think VFS in collaboration with SA Embassy is playing some pranks.

What exactly do you want to protest for? That they are vetting who comes into their country or what? You Paid for visa application not for visa to enter. Can you talk of protest in the US embassy LOL cheesy grin grin grin grin grin


There is really NOTHING funny about what you said and your comparison of the US embassy is absurd. It takes max 1min for you to know your fate at the US embassy. Although protest is not the way to go but holding on to peoples passport endlessly for months is totally wrong but you wouldnt know this cos an average Nigerian is desperate and would rather wait no matter how long it takes for the visa to be ready. There was a time they issue visas in 3days max. What has changed? Why these unnecessary delays? And this statement of yours "You Paid for visa application not for visa to enter" really shows how you think. That statement is completely flawed.

You can as well call your bank and ask why they called and ask if you submitted your bank statement to any embassy.. you have every right to ask them anything concerning your bank account with them.

That is standard procedure for some banks. No need calling bank to ask such. It is quite logical. You submitted your bank statement to an embassy, embassy tried to verify from your bank if they were the one that issued the bank statement. Bank called you to confirm if you submitted your statement to an embassy. They asked which embassy and you told them. Bank charge you for that confirmation. Case Closed.

Meanwhile I applied for a tourist visa since 28 of june and up till this moment I hv neva heard anything from the embassy.
Pls does it mean the embassy is attending to my application by demanding if am the true owner of the account.. Pls I need advice because I want to apply for withdrawal of my passport.

DONT withdraw yet. You should get your passport back within a week or so. The embassy just confirmed your bank statement.
