How did you know about the file transfer from ghana to ottawa? Did you order gcms notes or did they send you a letter for that? Previously my file was in Shanghai, then transferred to Accra. I’m just wondering if there’s anything else I should be doing. Already ordered gcms notes
The second PPR was stated at the bottom left that's it's from Ottawa

Please to those who have sent their passport over to vsf offices in Nigeria, how much was it?
Do we have to pay first before sending passport over or it’s until when it gets there??
Thanks in anticipation

Thank you
But I’m trying to send to Abuja... want to avoid stories that touch with vfs Lagos...

Do one have to include the receipt of the transmission fee with the package going to Accra?

Yes. When you pay, the bank will give you a receipt, you add the receipt to the documents you’ll be sending to vfs

Thank you so much

I appreciate
Is the SMS fee going to be charged from your account or paid separately?
Plus was your payment through bank transfer or over the counter?

and can you please help with the vfs account number?

I’m sorry to disturb

Hi guys,
Please would appreciate it if someone can respond to my question. Thanks

1) Please can I send my passport directly to Accra Visa Office or MUST I send it through the VFS office in Lagos (because I really want to avoid stories that touch too)?

2) Any idea/rough estimate of the cost sending and also receiving passport (cos I think I saw somewhere that you pay both ways.. not sure)?

3) Is this address format for Accra Visa Office correct?

Good everyone,

I hope your weekend is going well?

I recently mailed my out of Canada's dependents Forms/documents to Accra LVO( hard and soft copies) and after 1 month got a confirmation email that the Forms/documents have been received and my file update. I was elated and was hoping for the next step.

Surprisingly, I received a reply to my previous webmail enquiry from Accra " Clearly stating that they have not received our forms/supporting Documents". I immediately replied to the email with proof of delivery of documents by DHL and a copy of their previous email that had earlier confirmed the receipt of our documents. This is very unnerving...

I will wait for 1 week hoping to get a response from them, if I do not, I rather send new forms/documents to them again.

Has anyone ever had a similar experience?

1. I advise you send it through VFS
2. The logistics you’ll be using will tell you but you’ll have to pay for VFS courier
3. Not sure about it

Hmmm.. Thanks for replying...

I think read somewhere on this platform that we should avoid VFS and send directly to Accra...

Still unsure... Can someone pls confirm this pls? Thanks

Please can someone who sent their passport directly to Ghana please tell me where/what address they sent to?

Did you send your passport to VFS office Accra or directly to the High Commission of Canada in Accra? Pls which one was it?

I would really really love not to send via VFS Lagos and want to know how I can bypass VFS Lagos to engage Ghana directly.

Would appreciate an answer from someone who sent directly to Ghana. Thanks

Looks like good news, atleast they are working on your file. I take any lil update as good news. It might either be ADR of police certificate or the GOLDEN MAIL PPR. Be hopeful buddy and let's see how it goes. And please do update us when there is any update.
