To the glory of Almighty Allah, I received the visas and coprs of my spouse and I at exactly 8.38am today (20/4/2016) after 532days or 12768hours or 766080minutes or 45964800seconds since the day I first sent my application. What a great feeling guys!!!! ;D ;D ;D
I wish to express my profound gratitude to everyone in the forum that helped me along the way eg raising CSE about inclusion of my spouse and other tips too numerous to mention.
Thank you PH for being a shining light in the murky waters of canadian application processing. Without this forum, I would be lost at sea.
For all peeps awaiting updates, It will start raining blessings of MRs and PPRs for you all.
From Vancouver to Toronto, we shall achieve greatness and come back home to help our motherland.
God bless Canada. God bless Nigeria.
I remain humble

I appreciate everyone with their well wishes on the receipt of my visa/copr today. May God bring joy into your lives as well.
Pls for people that recently landed, how did you carry the pof? I'm kind of afraid withdrawing my pof prior to departure as I don't trust naija banks with what we see on television on a regular basis.
Is there any other better alternative to carry pof, taking into account the crazy and frequent CBN directives and limitations to dollar ATM withdrawals?
Kindly advise

hello, I think if it is possible to PTA, for eligible members of the family, and if you can get USD denominated MasterCard/visa card loaded, another way, moneygram to yourself and you can get it after landing in Canada. Value may be lost leaving the funds in naira account, as it happened to me withdrawing from naira account from Canada, the card rate is close to black market rate.

Hello good people,

CIC just requested some additional documents from me (reference letter from current employer and bank statement from a previous job).
I havent been able to locate where to upload these additional documents on MyCIC account. Kindly let me know how to go about it. Does anyone have the phone number or email address of CIC so I can contact them.

Thank you

House good morning. One of the people I was putting through on this canadian immigration has gone on his own to process his transcripts. Can he send them to WES directly or must it be school that will send to WES? I think I saw a couple of people here who said they sent their transcripts to WES directly.

Responses will be appreciated.

@canadamyplace, sorry I don't understand "has gone on his own to process his transcripts"? The requirement for credential assessment especially for immigration under WES is to have the institution send the applicant's transcript directly, while the applicant sends a copy of his certificate. If he does otherwise then it might not be accepted by WES.

@ Emmashin, Once you have gathered the requested documents, send them by courier Accra. I guess that will receive speedy attention than scanning/uploading. Except if you are an EE applicant.

Hi ,

Uni would need to send direct to WES. I had same issue in Dec 2014, when I did my credential assessment and WES later advised that it would need to come from my Uni

Bro,i guess you are an EE applicant.EE processing is paperless application unlike FSW 2014.If you an EE applicant,you do not have to send your documents via courier to AVO.You have to upload it in your MYCIC account same way you uploaded other documents when you applied. Just go to your mycic account,click on 'view my submitted application' follow through until you get to documents you uploaded when you applied,you wil see another upload field through which you can upload requested documents.CIC always give a new upload field on your MYCIC account when additional documents are requested and you are mandated to upload those documents on your MYCIC account. All the best.
