A friend received the following email and wonders if it indicates a request for a passport. The Accra office have previously requested for numerous documents to verify the authenticity of their marriage which she has sent to them. However, she received the email below early this morning. Can you offer advice?








Dear XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX



This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada. In order to continue processing your application, an interview is required. We are therefore pleased to advise that you are required to attend an interview at the location, date and time indicated below:





Date - June 27, 2024 I Time - 10:00am

Location: Visa Application Centre – The Manor Plot 110, Admiral Ayinla WAy, Lekki Phase 1 Lagos Nigeria

The purpose of this interview will be to determine your eligibility for admission to Canada. The following individuals are required to attend the interview. If any are absent, processing of your application may be delayed.

  • XXXXX XXXXX
COVID SAFETY MEASURES:The Canadian High Commission has instituted strict safety measures to limit the spread and to protect against coronavirus. Below is some important information relating to these safety measures:

  • It is important that you arrive on time for your interview. If you are late, your interview may be rescheduled for another date and time.
  • You will need to wear a face mask at all times.
  • You will undergo a covid screeningby the guards at the entrance (temperature check, screening questions).
    • If you fail the screening, your interview will be rescheduled for another date and time.
    • If you are admitted into the building, you will need to wash your hands beforehand and maintain social distancing and mask wearing at all times.
  • For your information, the High Commission has instituted strict cleaning protocols. All areas are regularly cleaned before and after applicants enter.
IMPORTANT: If you have covid-19 related symptoms or have recently tested positive for covid-19, we ask that you do not come to the Canadian High Commission. Instead, we ask that you notify us by e-mail to indicate that you cannot attend your interview, and a new date and time for your interview will be scheduled.



For more information on covid-19 related symptoms, please visit: www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/diseases/2019-novel-coronavirus-infection/symptoms.html



Please make sure that all additional supporting documents must be submitted electronically to our office at least 7 days before the interview:

  • Proof of communication (i.e. photos, letters, E-mails, phone bills) between you and your sponsor, and any other documentation you may have in respect to your relationship. Please do not submit duplicates of what has already been submitted.
  • Any other documents that you deem relevant to support your application.
You are encouraged to send any relevant supporting documents in advance to:

accraimminterviews@international.gc.ca

Documents not submitted prior to the interview may not be considered at interview.



INTERVIEW LANGUAGE AND INTERPRETERS:Please note that interviews scheduled in Accra will be conducted in English or French, the official language of your choice. If you require an interpreter in any other language or dialect, it is your responsibility to make the necessary arrangements for an interpreter, including payment for his/her services. If you chose to bring an interpreter, you must advise our office (a minimum of 24 hours before the interview) beforehand by e-mail. Family, friends and acquaintances will not be accepted as interpreters. If you arrive at interview and the officer is unable to conduct the interview due to your inability in English or French or the absence of an interpreter, the interview will not take place. Your application may then be assessed based on the information on file, and this may result in an unfavourable decision.

RIGHT OF PERMANENT RESIDENCE FEE:If your sponsor has not already done so they may wish to consider paying the Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF) at the Case Processing Centre in Mississauga at this time. Please note that if no visa is issued to you, this fee is fully refundable.

IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO ATTEND:

If you are unable to attend the interview on the date and time indicated, you must inform us well in advance, giving a substantive reason why you are unable to attend. If you do not appear for your interview on the date scheduled, and do not contact us on the date of the interview to explain why you have not appeared for interview, we will make a decision using the existing information on file.

PLEASE NOTE:
Do not give up employment, dispose of household effects or make travel or any other arrangement until you have received notice that you are accepted for immigration. There is no assurance at this stage that a visa will be granted to you.

Please bring this letter, any relevant supporting documents, and your passport with you when you appear for your appointment. A copy of this letter has been sent to your sponsor in Canada, if applicable.

Thank you for the interest you have shown in Canada.





Regards,

A request for interview, not passport. Usually a negative sign as the IRCC doesn't believe the relationship is genuine.
