slamdunk99: @all, am really having some problems and in a tyt corner, my school declined giving me their account details until the official registration date 13th june. I paid the tuition today after registering yesterday nyt......now CDHC deadline for me is 30 days from 22nd May and my school may not be able to process a receipt, not even an online copy b4 then. I have since done my medicals on 6th june. Don't know if I shud send a mail to CDHC that I cannot make d deadline, or what other options do I have.......pls gurus in d house I need your urgent answers.........

Welldone!I think you have a minor issue here. The glaring truth is that you have met the obligation of payment of tuition.Just send the embassy any form of memorandum of payment, and note on it that official receipt is in transit from Canada.Anything that shows you have paid into their account - teller,cheque, money transfer receipt or any such document. Of course, the embassy would still confirm anyways. So try and meet the deadline by showing any reasonable evidence of payment. Goodluck!

To those that have been waiting for medical call ups for like 3 - 4 months , I think you may need to visit the embassy. i applied since the 23rd of march and have got no response so i visited cdhc yesterday and to my surprise i met a number of people who had the same issue, i met this one guy who had applied for a study permit since febuary and a number of people who were waiting for their visitors visa, some had also applied since feb, some march , some april, all had sent emails but no response, and the irony is that many applications that came in after they had applied have already been processed so why the delay. I met this one guy and another lady who applied for a visitors visa to go for their kids graduation, in fact the ceremonies had already passed with no response from the embassy. They complained bitterly because many of them have other visas on their passport and need to travel urgently. In fact the majority of them had come to withdraw their passports saying they did not need the visas anymore. We were all asked to fill a form with our details stating our requests, either to withdraw or to enquire on status of your application. However we were just 2 with the study permit enquiry, the other guy was called in and refused instantly, all the other guys that had applied for visiting were either issued the visa instantly or given back their passports with their documents withheld and asked to send back their passports when they are through with it for the visa. Bottomline the delays are not limited to study permit applications alone, it appears that these applications had not been touched at all and just pushed to one corner for whatever reason, not until they visited the embassy to withdraw did they start looking through them. some of them were processed that same day and issued their visas ( I mean visitors as they do not need to do medicals) some had come for like 2 - 3 days before it was issued. So these delays are not just limited to study permits, but i think you should visit the embassy to fill the form to at least expedite the process because your application may just be lying there untouched, and please do not wait till its so close to your start date, the guy that was refused the study permit was supposed to resume june 20th. I pray God grants us all our hearts desire. CDHC clearly have issues but we will overcome in Jesus name.

Re: Travelling To Canada Part 3 by BannyE: 10:33am On Jun 15, 2012
bashtee: @Banny E
Please somebody should pls guide me on this, home stay and off campus residence or Dorms which is more economical and preferable to a student just entering Canada.

It depends on what your want, some houses are expensive than others, just look up kijiji.ca or craigslist.com and search for housing where your school is and compare the cost.You can go to home stay being a new comer after getting used to the environment if the the place suit you ,you continue if not you look for a better place,the advantage of a home stay if that you have a place you will move into and get settled as you land.


@bashtee thank you so much. I will check those sites as u advice.

@ ancient1
But i sent them a mail about two weeks ago nd i got a replied that says;

"Due to the very high volume of applications being received by this office, the current processing time for a study permit visa application is longer than 3 months.

You would be contacted as soon as we reach a decision on your application.

I don't think Ɣõu̶̲̥̅̊ nEed an agent. Carefully go through the pages of each thread ( travelling to canada part 1 and 2) Ɣõu̶̲̥̅̊ will be able to packege ur application yourself. Its clearly written on their site that no agent can guarantee Ɣõu̶̲̥̅̊ a visa.
Re: Travelling To Canada Part 3 by canadianboy(m): 4:01pm On Jun 15, 2012
Hello House,
I submitted my application for study permit in May 14 and it reached the CDHC in May 15.Before then, i applied last year but i was refused Visa due to funding issue having completed medicals. But this time, i reapplied in May 15 and since then, no response yet. Part of the documents i submitted are: marriage certificate, my two kids' birth certificate, my wife's certicate, offer of employment letters from my past employers(3 in number) and my offer letter of my present employer and my funded statement of account.
My question is that would the CDHC verify all those offer letters of employments too - all the three are commercial banks whose names have changed thru all these mergers and acquisition.
Am afraid this should not delay my application since it might be difficult to contact those banks again. The reason why i put those letters there is to show evidence of past and present employment so that any amount i claim to have in my personal account can be substantiated.
Also, i did medicals in August last year, is it likely am asked to do medicals again since the medicals last for a period of 1year?

I am interested in an answer to this question, particularly the bit about contacting all previous employers.

@ codebrain , u mean u applied since 2nd feb and for sept admission and youve still not heard from them? Guys i think applying very early in advance is also becoming an issue. Lets take note. I also applied march 26th, no word till date.
