IRCC Lagos called me 2days after we uploaded via webform to upload directly and not via webform but the upload option was not available, after back and front, Ircc mail my representative to send the employment letter via response to the mail and upload option was available days after.
April 16 2024 I decided to go take upfront medicals as my medical expires March 28 and that of my son who is yet to land and has visa already whose medical validity on POE intro letter states March 28 thou visitor visa still valids this august 7.

25th of April 2024 ,wify asked for update from MP as my status only indicates that additional documents uploaded March 26 2024.
MP response state’s eligibility, criminality, medical passed and a request for client employment letter on 13th of March and was received on 26th of March and medical on 22nd of April 2024
May 20 2024 when my status didn’t change I asked my representative to send a second webform to upload the emedical again.
I emailed ircc Lagos 25th, my representative also planing on sending a mail to the consulate if nothing is heard this week.
Wify is having anxiety already as she can not start her work permit renewal as I the primary applicant is still stuck with ircc .
