Thread for Acrra Ghana applicants

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

Hey @Nneji, It was @Nneoma.muna who advised those getting PPR in Nigeria to avoid Lagos VFS. I hope by tagging her she'll respond to your request for information.

can this be good news ? I haven't seen anything in my mail ,including spam..

Looks like good news to me, PPR?! Have you checked if a correspondence was sent via GCKEY? Did you use a Representative? If so, it could have been sent to them. I would follow-up as soon as possible. If you didn't use a Representative, send a direct email to AVO (accraimmigration@international.gc.ca) you don't want to miss the deadline for passport submission. Don't wait, act!

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?

High Commision of Canada
Visa Section
P.O.Box 1639
Accra
Ghana

@Nneji I recommend posting your enquiry in this thread also: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-i...hreads/passports-to-accra-visa-office.528632/ just in case you don't get a response here.

You can always contact VFS in Ghana to inquire: National calls: 0302750200 / International calls: +233302750200, E: info.canghaiom@vfshelpline.com

If there is another way of sending passport to AVO without Lagos VFS please I would advise you use it. it doesn't make sense for one's passport to be held for more than 4 weeks

Yes I'm really happy. Thanks to everyone for your support and prayers.

Thanks. Have you sent your passport? If not, are you planning to send through Lag or Abj vfs?

Same here . I submitted via VFS Abuja on the 8th of June but I’ve not gotten my passport back

 

[AVODamn!!!]

Can I submit my passport in Ottawa? My PPR letter did not specify where to send and with a lot of people having issues with Lag and ABJ vfs, I'm thinking to send to Ottawa instead.

Any thoughts?
