Since you got this mail on 13th I would assume you in Nigeria. I know its confusing and annoying but I will suggest, all applicant from Nigeria to give themselves atleast 5 weeks to receive the passport or start worrying. From most applicant aster receiving that mail, I think the passport is being moved through various offices/transits and that's where the lack of communication is, as in between the visa offices, applicants and the courier services. No updates are made till it lands and ready to be delivered to you.Hello,
I got this mail from VFS on the 13th of this month saying “The envelope for the decision on the results of your visa that has been processed has been received at the Canadian Visa Application Center at Ghana OC, on the date. We will then send this to the Canadian Visa Application Center Ghana OC. Please note that this is an automated email. Please DO NOT reply to this email.”
But up till now I’ve not gotten any update. I’m starting to get anxious. Anyone on this same boat with me??
Thanks for the response.I don't know if this comment will calm others down a bit or rather just not stress when you receive that message. So I always thought the vfs holds the passports and creating the long wait. Vfs Accra, don't really hold passports as the courier services such as DHL, have a daily pickup of passports from their office. This only means that the courier services are prolly the ones hoarding the passports till they receive a specific bulk quantity before set off to lagos. So between the time your passport is with DHL till vfs lagos/delivery directly to you, there is lack of info. Because surely vfs notify us once a specific file is in their location.
Lol I promise you it definitely has been crazy, it’s been God calming me down.. yeah it’s the 5th week now . So fingers crossed, tomorrow’s almost here.You welcome. As is booked already let's be hopeful then. But reason I haven't yet is cause I will be going crazy right now if I were you and didn't have the passport yet. I just hope you calculated atleast 6 weeks to book the ticket because Nigerians passports return roughly within 5-6 weeks from past approved applicants.
That's true even though I know some few who ddnt get any followup mails but just a call for their passports(it may be they ddnt check before getting passports or didn't mention it).Thanks for the response.
I actually sent mine through VFS Abuja. I not actually worried that I haven’t gotten the passport back and I already have it at the back of my mind that it takes 5-6 weeks.
What concerns me is that I learnt they normally send another acknowledgment mail after the one I mentioned earlier stating that the passport has been received at the Embassy (correct me if I’m wrong). If I haven’t gotten that mail till now doesn’t it mean that my passport is still sitting at the VAC in Accra and hasn’t been dispatched yet. Or that’s the only mail they send till the passport gets to Nigeria.
Cause I learnt the second mail is supposed to come after about 3-4 days from the first one.
That’s what’s getting me worked up.
IKR, hmmmmmm only GOD oh, I can't imagine the mood for you at all. But good news ahead don't worry. As we going into the 6th week, there is hope.Lol I promise you it definitely has been crazy, it’s been God calming me down.. yeah it’s the 5th week now . So fingers crossed, tomorrow’s almost here.
