Not yet o. They haven't sent the ready for collection email. Last update is still that the tracking id has been received at the Canada Visa Application Centre, Abuja OC on Thu Jul 20 2023 and is in transit to the IRCC Office in Abuja OC for processing. I also know that when IRCC finally stamps it, it will be updated on the portal.

How many days after getting this mail did you get your port?

Please normal bank statements with reference letters from each bank is not acceptable ?

Deluvtj247:


Yes, that is called mybankstatements. I believe you should have a placeholder on your profile to /submit the document for explanation. If you have just one place holder to your explanation, merge all the document as one pdf and .

You can also use this link to submit required document.

You went to their office and collected your port? The problem is that it's my mom's port and she can't go to Abuja as she is busy at work in Anambra state.

But please did they update your ircc yet and your application tracker not the tracker for vfs?

Hello guys,
I have submitted the documents for my new bank statement (mybankstatement) on my portal IRCC requested . Do I need to inform them that I submitted the documents to clarify the mistakes, or should I wait for their response?

What is the current processing time please

Eniiyanu1:

Oh, that's the difference. Her own was last updated 11th of July when they provided the visa details. No further update since then. Ircc still says background check in progress. I guess we have to wait for a while.

I need advice to give an older friend of mine who wants to go to Canada but his circumstances is quite different.

He is in his late 40s and a successful, wealthy businessman in Nigeria. He wants to relocate to Canada with his family of two daughters and wife. Both him and his wife have SSCE qualifications as their only education.

What are his chances or what can be do to relocate to Canada? He asked me to help me find a suitable pathway for him and I've been thinking about it for weeks now. Can anyone help?

That's quite tough....

Does he have up to 500 thousand us dollar? Maybe he can qualify for investment visa?

No he doesn't, but he is well to do in a way.

FatherFigure:

Yes, i collected it today, collection is between 12-2 come around 11:30 and take a number they will give directions where to go, bring a copy of your port data page, the one you wrote your email and phone number, write your tracking number on it, that’s all you need for submission also bring a pen to sign

Hi Guys, I have a visit visa for myself and daughter, can i book either of these airlines. Lufthansa, Klm or Air?

Pascal122:


No he doesn't, but he is well to do in a way.

PP dispatched from Lagos: Mon July 10, 2023
PP received by CVAC Abuja OC and to be sent to CVAC Abuja OC: Tue July 11, 2023

I was confused at this point 😕 🫤 because why are you receiving and saying you will send to yourself again then I just assumed they made a mistake in the message. It was not a mistake 😢 😭 😪
Within this period, I checked the application tracker, saw visa number even though my background check was in progress.

PP received by CVAC Abuja OC and in transit to IRCC office Abuja OC: Thur July 13, 2023

I started becoming jittery at this point because of my other trip. Plus the people that submitted same day with me and a day after me had gotten msgs that their PP had left IRCC after stamping. Checked my status and it was still saying background check in progress🙄

PP received by IRCC: Thur July 20, 2023

So PP was in transit within Abuja for 1 whole week. The PP must have been tired of trekking 😔

PP received by CVAC Abuja CVO: Mon July 24, 2023

I checked my status on the portal and the application tracker. Application tracker was still saying 'in progress' because background check was in progress. Portal was updated to background completed, but no info on port being stamped.

I decided to chat VFS on Wed morning July 26. Chatted with Chiamaka, she confirmed that PP was in transit to Lagos VFS. I kept stressing how urgent it was because of my planned trip and it was already almost 3 weeks after submission. I was practically pleading that I can pick it up from anywhere... she insisted I will pick it up in lagos VFS office. 2 mins after our chat, collection mail in Lagos dropped 💃 💃 💃
VFS port tracker was still showing 'in transit' till I collected the port.

I just checked the application tracker now (fri 28 July), and the status says 'closed'. It was updated July 26, the day lagos collection mail dropped.
The portal overall status still says 'submitted'.

Other info:
I used the new link for application.
I had US visa.
I applied as a tourist.

DrPrincess:
Has anyone had this situation in which you received PPR, but background verification is still in progress. You submitted port, but background verification still progress...

If he has enough money, he can come in as a tourist and pay for LMIA with a genuine rcic consultant that can help him get an employer, get and lmia and get a work permit . It can cost him about 20k to 35k cad, get an skilled job and the wife can qualify for an open work permit and the children for study permit.

Disclaimer: I heard paying for LMIA is illegal so you have to trade cautiously.

Amen.
I'm glad my long story was helpful.
All the best.

Please o my people
@Emmafe, @ Vikings and others gurus in the house
Please my brother tried to use his credit master dollar card from Gtbank that has 144 usd which is more than 185 cad to pay today for visa and Biometrics but it declined. Please does it mean network is bad or the 144 usd is not up to 185 cad or is it from the card?
Note: He paid Sweden visa recently for someone with the same card

Pls urgent response is needed
