Got mine within 5days (coupled with the fact that there was christmas and boxing day holidays then) after submission in Lekki and it was mailed to me in Osogbo via DHL. So if you're picking up in Lekki yourself, it shouldn't exceed 3days max.

Ok thank you, I assume this was last December?

Does anyone know how long it’s taking VFS to return port after submission in Lagos. Thanks!

Please house who is experiencing this, vfs hasn’t send me any acknowledgment since I submitted my port via dhl but on vfs tracker it shows my processed port has been forwarded to Canada visa office yesterday… pls do I need to live chat again

Please How did you get the tracking ID?

Emmafe:
Fee N9,410. I don’t think d yellow slip will be an issue. Yes, you can pickup in person once it’s ready for collection.

Did this fee just change again? I could’ve sworn I saw N16k on their site last week

Hello. Please help o, my sister just got ppr and wants to submit her port, VFS booking dates for in-person submission is too long, Abeg can she send via dhl immediately?

Hello everyone,
So my sister gave birth recently in Edmonton, just want to share some brief details.
I found a gynae for her before she landed, she got a referral from my family doctor, paid $120 for that. I called around and we shortlisted 2, the first one (a group of ob-gyn) was going to collect $3000 for delivery and $250/visit. The second has a fee breakdown for delivery and payment of $250/first visit and $120/subsequent visits so we chose him because the first didn’t really explain his fees.
Well the doc she signed up with didn’t end up taking the delivery as he was away, so the ob on call did it. She paid $2200 for his fee, $500 for anaesthesia and total hospital( fee was $8800

There were also some other small fees but I can’t now. My advice is to research well, I was only able to get this information because I am a resident and I kept telling them that she’s my sister. Birth tourism isn’t very popular here

Hello, please when you applied, did you select Nigeria as country of residence?

hello Daks, could you pls put me through how you purchased the insurance. I thought it has to be a Canadian company since it will be used here in canada. I would like to buy a travel insurance for my mum as well. Thank you.

There are different types on their site, for different countries. I bought online on their website

I was just about to post this. For people bringing their parents over, please get travel insurance, I got for my mum from Axamansard for just N30,000. It’ll save you a lot in case it’s needed.

DeeWan:
Please, I would like to ask.... I plan to travel with my kids (4.5years old, and 2 years old) to meet my wife who is on a study permit in January 2022. I am fully vaccinated with a canadian work permit but the kids are not due to their age. Do the kids require a written authorization to enter Canada? For those that travelled with kids less than 5 years old, please, what was it like at POE? Help a brother with this information �

The kids don’t need to be vaccinated, if your wife isn’t travelling with you then you need authorisation from her I think.

Iffylove:
Thank you.
The test must be taken 72 hours before flight right?

Sorry just seeing this. Yes

Iffylove:

We finally received PPR today for my mother in law’s visa, second application submitted via portal on oct 14th.

UPDATE:
Ive finally gotten my email to transmit my port to the VFS. However I must state that I reapplied after the September 7th update. So new timeline:

Fresh application: September 8th, 2021
Response: September 24th, 2021

Might actually be helpful to resubmit your application based on their update. For ease these are the documents I submitted with online my application(I submitted the additional documents via the webform):
1. Application for authorization & statutory declaration for extended family
2. Biodata page and drivers license of my brother
3. Letter of invitation from my brother
4. Proof of relationship between my brother end I (birth certificates in this case)
5. Proof of change of name (I’m married so I needed to have documents bearing my maiden name)
6. Detailed quarantine plan
7. Biodata page and birth certificate of my daughter, she’s Canadian.

Hello people,

Please is travel history compulsory to apply for Canada TRV

Not necessarily, my MIL got her visa without travel history. You just have to prove you have ties in Nigeria, properties/job things like that.
