FSW 2014 applicants from Nigeria - Let's network

Good Morning all, for everyone still expectant of one update or the other God will answer you this week amen.

And for those with strange views on their LinkedIn, Hope the information on your linkedIn tallies with what you sent to AVO. If it does not correspond, there is every likelyhood that could be the cause of the delay, my cousin who applied for FSW2013 was denied visa because they viewed his linkedin profile and discovered some discrepancies as to the information on his linkedin and the one he sent to AVO. My people please check very well again and ensure all information on your linkedin page is same with the information you sent to AVO
 
My linked in profile was viewed in private mode 1 month ago yet nothing has happened since then. Please what could be wrong?
 
Same as mine, twice within a month.

Thanks christamario.
So what happens if an applicant does not have a LinkedIn account. What would the visa office do in that regard. Having a LinkedIn account is not compulsory and not a requirement for this Canadian immigration. Just asking for the sake of applicants without LinkedIn account or any social media accounts. Some people don't just do social media.
Just for more clarification.

You can send AVO a fresh email attaching the receipt as evidence of payment. Few days later, your receipt will be linked to your ecas amd you will be able to login using the receipt no.

The reason for checking social media is to see if there will be discrepancies between what you submitted to them and what you have online. If none, they will make do with what you submitted. If AVO have further concerns, I am sure they will request for your clarification.
 
apart from facebook which I opened years ago, I am not active on any other social media platform and I dont think not having a linkedIn account will be to an applicant's detriment in any way. Although having it probably makes things a little easier for the Visa officers as they will have an easy basis to tell their superiors that did some sort of background check.

Checking and non-checking of social media. It is the mercy of God that will see us through. I cannot wait for this process to end successfully. Too much agitations, anxieties, worries. Haaa I tire o. Baba God, pls look down on us your children and grant us favour before AVO.
All the best to us all.

Remember that they are carrying out background checks and it is not limited to a source. They will exploit every available source ; social media, present and previous places of work experience(s) if need be , organizations or associations that you belong to etc. So, it is more than social media.

They will also contact banks to confirm the statements of account submitted. What they ask for and how they go about it can be confirmed from bank officers or your account officers. Remember, not all files will go through this process ; selected few. The criteria they will use in selecting the few , i cannot really say but it is a known truth that for each visa year, some files must be strictly checked to conform with quality assessment.
 
Thanks a lot.
