Hi guys, what is the realistic timeline for visit visa from Nigeria? I am aware of the recommeded timeline on IRCC website but I'm just trying to weigh my options between applying for visit visa for my wife or wait till I have enough proof of funds to apply to spousal sponsorship. Please advise

Good evening all.. Please i need help.. I did my biometrics since nov.27th last year, till now no news yet... What can be the problem.. I am pursing for visiting visa, but through an agent..

Please is Statement of Purpose required for a visit visa to Canada?

It is not stated on IRCC website that you must submit an SOP for visit visa but you can still be approved without it but wont hurt to include one. It helps to throw light on your application since you wont be there to defend yourself when the officer is reviewing your application. For instance, two of the requiremenrts on IRCC website states:

* convince an immigration officer that you have ties—such as a job, home, financial assets or family—that will take you back to your home country
*convince an immigration officer that you will leave Canada at the end of your visit

How do you convince if there is no document that can speak for you in your absence. Hope this helps you take a decision.

Hi house, I need clarification please.
Visa Refused !
Reason was my purpose of visit isnt for temporary purpose , I have also requested for GCMS note.
However in the tracker ( New IRcc New Version) it says Eligibility - completed and Background check is still "In Progress even after decision was taken. Has anyone experienced such and what could be the reason.
Thanks
