hi, I am thinking of relocating to Canada via study visa. I would like to know the average cost of living in Canada as at today that will cover basic needs like house, clothing , food and study. I know different state/province will have different cost but on the average for an average guy. if you can give it by location too, I wont mind. thank you

Chances of getting a job is the grace of God and the efforts you make.
Getting a PR, u need to make sure you have one or more of the following in place...
1) English exam (Celpip or ielts)
2) Some work experience (full time or part time)
3) Educational assessment (WES)

Its hard to tell. It depends on who is doing yours for you or where you are doing it.
Personally i think if you are patient enough to do some research and go through numerous threads on NL, you can do it on your own

Please I need someone to guide me on applying for SOWP online route. When I tried creating a demo account...I did not see where to upload financial documents, marriage certificate, intl passport, my study permit etc . I do not know if I am doing the right thing.

A guide on the online process and possibly a link will be highly appreciated.

Financial document is not a requirement. People just do add it just in case. You should review your answers to those question. You may have answered some of the wrongly.
Re: Nigerian Students In Canada: How Do You Survive? by Omonjoe(m): 3:06am On Nov 27, 2016
I think I did to the best of my knowledge. Its under work permit right?

I wonder why those people said it was a scam. The College is 46 years old for crying out loud. Anyway, the important factor to consider is if it is a designated learning institution (DLI). Being a DLI helps you in getting a study permit from CIC. If it is not a DLI, ill advise you move on

There are quite a number of questions like this on this thread and the answer is almost the same. She can practice in Canada, She can join him, She will need to do qualifying exams in Canada (with respect to her profession). It requires a lot of paper work and can usually take a long time to process too. If its what they really want to do then they should go for it

There is a permit for Coop required to do internship. After studies you can apply for a work permit to enable you work full time. You need to apply for this permit at least 2 or 3 months before your study permit expires.

Login into your account you created on cic website. then you should see a button "visit, work, study.." click on that. thereafter you will be asked for a code, if you had filled a questionnaire before. if not proceed with the new questions. based on what you fill in the questionnaire will determine what documents you are able to submit.after completing the questionnaire you will see different sections with the require document for submission.

if you can see anything, you can try editing your answers in the questionnaire.
