PPR dropped this morning at 6a.m
I have applied for tourist visas two times before. The first one was approved, I visited once and came back to Nigeria.
The second one which I submitted since last year April is still pending till now.

I applied for study permit 12th of April, 2021.
Ghost update once.
No update whatsoever. Eligibility requirement has still not started till now.
School resumes September 7 and I was scared I wont meet up, but all glory to God, I am sharing my good news that my PPR dropped this morning.
I am 23 years old and going for Alternative Dispute Resolution in Humber College

It has been a rollercoaster but I thank God for his intervention.

I would be willing to assist anyone who needs help with any questions. My email is always open.


Congratulations �� it has ended in praise

Got a refusal yesterday based on personal assets and financial status. Such a sad and discouraging feeling after waiting for so long since April. Like why not make a decision on time so someone can reapply again before September.


So sorry about this, please order your GCMS notes to ascertain the issues and address it. You can also share the concerns here so that gurus can assist you. It will be well.

Oh Lord, my God
When I, in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout the universe displayed
Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art
Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art

Good evening everyone!
I made a promise to my Jehovah that when he approves my Canada Study Permit Application, I'll sing this song and testify of His glory.

My story is long but I'll see if I can summarize it. Please note that I've been peeping into this forum for close to 2 years now but this is my first time posting. God Almighty had used this forum to bless and comfort me. That's why I want to post my testimony for people to know that God is able to grant them PPR. Receive your testimony and comfort too. God bless everyone who has been contributing to the success of this platform, including the lady that dropped a powerful prayer one night for ppr hopefuls.

When I needed comfort, I always prayed to God and also visited nairaland forum regularly.

Now this is my story:
I'm 41 years hold and a University Lecturer with PhD. Sometime ago, I made a decision to move to Canada through the study route. I applied for diploma and was granted ission. I later applied for Study Permit in March, 2020 but was refused in May, 2020. Now, I see that God Almighty didn't want me to travel to Canada with PhD to do diploma because He has better plans for me.
I was depressed and almost lost hope. But that's not who I am. Giving up is never in my DNA. So by God's grace, I drew strength from JESUS Christ and decided to re-strategize. So by God's grace, in 2020 August, I decided to ignore the fear about stress and rejections from searching for PhD Supervisors. So I started sending emails to professors requesting them to be my Supervisor. Just one night retrial, I woke up to see an email from a Professor who scheduled a meeting with me to assess me to know if he'll agree to be my Supervisor. To cut the story short, I was accepted, itted into the University with full scholarship, including a Teaching Assistantship position. Oh, hallelujah!

Now, the story about my study permit application. Still bearing the anger of the rejection of last year in my mind, I reluctantly applied for study permit. I tried ing the PDF of the application documents but without success, so I angrily edited the former forms in my computer that I filled last year and submitted to IRCC on the 18th of March, 2021.
Got NSE request on the 14th of April. This put me in a good spirit, so despite all odds, I travelled to write the IELTS exam and by God's grace, I ed and sent it to IRCC on 11th of May. Submission acknowledged on the 12th of May. No information from IRCC till 17th of June when I received medical request. Medical Examination done on 7th of July. ed on 14th of July.
Correspondence Letter on 9th of August and PPR today, 10th of August.

Note that till now, my eligibility and background check aren't completed and my profile is still showing "we are processing your application".

My Jehovah is great and able. I almost developed high blood pressure, anxiety attack and depression as a result of the process but God Almighty gave me victory and approved my application.
I've sent my port to VFS today.

May Jehovah listen to your worrying hearts and visit you with good news, including PPR.

What a great testimony! PPR is raining! I am so happy for you. Go and prosper in Canny land

I used first bank , the problem now is they can't tell me when exactly my transaction will be processed, all they said was it depends on the availability of forex, the same bank told me cbn usually make forex available for them usually Wednesday's and Thursday's now they're telling me they can't give me a definite time it will be processed, they only Said it's still in process, I haven't been debited yet .

Send a complaint to their customer care quoting the branch and inform them that you will escalate to CBN complaint unit.

Hello everyone, please has anyone used applygcms.com to request for their gcms notes? This is 50days now and they have refused to send my notes or give a good explanation only saying Ircc hasn't sent it to them. Im beginning to doubt if they are genuine or not. Has anyone experienced such delay in getting their notes? Im so worried.

Gcmsnotes.com is better 30days is 30days. I just applied for their CBSA now.

JustMellow:


Hello Amiecandie,

What items were stated as verified? The "compliance verification required" is now a common occurrence that can be seen in 7 out of 10 GCMS notes recently.

If the remark on the notes for your bank statement verification has not been entered or stated as "no adverse," it will be a good idea or advice to immediately go to your banking institution to have them forward an updated financial record using their official platform while you do the same at your end.

Thorough financial verification has been done for all study permit applications filed since January 2021. If this is not the same as the compliance verification intended by IRCC, and if your IELTS and ission letter have been stated "confirmed" on your notes, then maybe they are conducting some additional verification based on their discretion.

Hopefully, it reflects confirmed soon. Stay calm.

Best of Luck


Thanks for your detailed response.
it is only showing compliance verification required under DLI

If you order a GCMS note and still waiting for an update, check your application due date;

You can find it on your 3rd page where you will see the two officers in charge of your application from start to finish and the app due date.

If the application due date has been exceeded except soon.

Also, if you have a RI or RR (eligibility assessment on page 2) on your GCMS note and couldn't find any anything relating to it in your note (last 2 pages), it means:

V.O have concerns they cannot write down due to discriminatory reasons (which is usually redacted in the note)....such as age diff, religion diff, culture differences, socioeconomic diff, previous marriages, etc. This is usually not "too" serious.

If it's not related to any of the above, it will be noted in your note (last 2 page) for you to address it. And please do that as soon as you can.

You mean this? Mine shows 1st July 2021

Wow
The journey to my application getting approved was exactly 6 months. 6 long stressful months.
When I submitted my application, I didn't understand much about the process. I didn't even click yes when asked if I would require a medical exam lol.

My timeline:
Submitted application - January 29th
Biometrics done - February 9th
NSE request sent - February 26th
Biometrics updated - February 29th
Sent IELTS and mbs - February 29th
IRCC received - March 9

From here on there was total silence and I began to worry a lot but I didn't know who or where to make enquiries.
When I came to this thread in April, I was very scared that my application would be refused because I saw a lot of mistakes I made but I became very proactive after I had gotten enough info.

Proof of funds wasn't a problem as my dad was my sponsor and I had been awarded a scholarship by my school (University of Toronto)

It was from this thread I learnt one could do upfront medicals. Eventually, I was sent a medical request on June 4th and I went for it on June 21st. It was updated to ed a week later after I ed the e-medical form given to me.

Another long wait began and I kept hoping as I was seeing stories of people getting their PPR a week after their medical.
I considered sending mails to MPs, webforms but I thought against it,. I saw people getting PPRs after ordering for their GCMS so I ordered mine on the 19th of July.

I saw a ghost update at 1am on the 29th and by 1pm I received an email from IRCC.
Finally I can rest smiley

Documents submitted:
- IMM1294
- IMM5645
- IMM5257
- Birth Certificate
- port
- ission letter and Scholarship letter
- Bank Statements of my dad's
- Digital Photo
- IELTS
- Custodianship Form

Finally I would like to thank people on this thread who answered all my questions no matter how seemingly stupid they were.
It has finally ended in good news.





Congratulations, it has ended in praise. Go and prosper

Finally, the eagle has landed. Glory be to the Most High and thanks to all the gurus in the house.

My long story goes thus;

I secured undergraduate issions in Brandon University, University of Winnipeg and University of Manitoba but decided to apply for SP with University of Winnipeg ission letter. The timelines were as follows;

Submitted application - February 24, 2021
Submission confirmation - February 24, 2021
Biometric Request Letter - February 25, 2021
NSE Request - March 2, 2021
Biometric done and updated - March 5, 2021

I decided to go through the normal route by neglecting the NSE request. However, on 15/03/2021, I felt I should give IELTS a trial and enrolled for academic version. I also raised webform requesting to be given till 15/04/2021 to submit the IELTS result. Note that the NSE was to expire on 01/04/2021. To the glory of God, the result was exceptional LRSW- 8.5, 8.5, 8, 6.5 and I was able on 13/04/2021 as it appeared that they approved the extension request, though no communication to that effect.

After writing IELTS, I decided to apply to Memorial University Newfoundland since it was (IELTS) one of the requirements. The process of securing the ission was a bit rigorous but I persevered until May 31 when the final ission was given to me. With the new ission letter, I requested to change my DLI.

Upfront Medical was done and updated on May 19, 2021.

Meanwhile, I did not know that I was supposed to resubmit the application after ing Mybank Statement and IELTS result. The status was still showing as 'Your action is Required' from 02/03/2021 when NSE request was sent till 15/06/2021 when I discovered this and resubmitted the application. I believe some people are also having similar problem.

On 17/06/2021, I received a request to complete the Custodianship form. Note that the Custodianship is required for applicant below 17years. Although, I was 16 as at 24/02/2021 when the application was submitted, I stated that I would have been 17 by September since my birthday was in June 2021 but apparently, they did not accept this submission. I was given one month to submit which expired on 17/07/2021. I was able to meet the deadline.

PPR finally showed on July 28, 2021

One remarkable thing is that I did not submit SOP since it was not stated as one of the mandatory documents and I hadn't ed this forum as at the time of application. Documents submitted include-
Father's land document
Father's salary (Banker)
Investment documents (shares)
Others were as requested in the application portal

Please connect if you are going to MUN this fall



Congratulations ��

When was the last time you ordered through cbsa? Or is it just mine? I ordered on the 16th of June, then on the 11th of July, they sent a mail that It will take extra 60days. I ordered another one on the 21st through cbsa and ordered another through ircc on the 15th of July, I haven't received any one. Please anyone with this kind of experience?


When I placed an order on GCMSnotes.com, I was informed that there was a delay with CBSA then as at JUNE 26th .
IRCC was presented as a better option and I guess it seems so because I concluded submission on 28th June and exactly 1 month JULY 28th, I received the document. IRCC was also less expensive.
