Travelling To Canada

You may be right about the age and gender thing, but the grace of God and his mercy. There are a couple of guys about 28 going for their Masters and who got their visas. Once u are lucky with the Visa officer in charge of your case, then you should get it once all other things are fine. Mine is about 70 days now. What do you guys think can be the challenge? Can it be verification taking forever? What's your take?

Any news yet from anyone regarding Study permits for this August/September?

na wah o, I hope u hear 4rom dem b4 da end of this month.
I wish we live in da borderless world

@ Ezinwannem

The admssion paper states 3rd september but its preceeded by a week orientation. that makes it 28th of august as start date for the orientation.
but today i received a letter sent on behalf of my lecturer that out leadership course starts on the 25th of august 2008.
I am going for an MBA  at the University of Alberta

i just need to know whats up with my application. im getting nervous. kai!!!!

may i never be in this position again. i recently went for an appraisal. i was the only one without my original documents. now how do i hope to get hired when am about to travel to study? the man asked me where my documents were i said its in the embassy. he asked me what i intend doing , i lied and told him i want to attend a conference. I dont think he believed me. he asked that i present my documents again before the end of the month for verification. I really dont know what to do now.
if they are not giving me canadian visa, see how im about to lose an another opportunity? my house rent is due. right now im stuck. do i renew or not??? if the answer is No candian visa, i still have dundee for september 6th.but how do i apply to another UK visa when my documents have been literally seized???

ah canada see me ooohh.

Thanks debosky & Igb.

@ igbogolo

I think you are being too complacent. I remember at the time of my application, while it was still under consideration, I had to go to Abuja for a Commonwealth Scholarship Interview, so I went back to the Embassy and asked to be given my originals to pursue my scholarship applications, and I was given.

I'm just saying that to show you that these embassy people can be talked to - do not hesitate to do go there.

You guys should get together and go to the embassy. After all you submitted genuine documents and all, there is nothing they can do to you - the worst is they say we won't give you the visa. But to just sit and wait idly will not help. Be proactive, ask if there is anything holding up the application that you can help clear up or verify.

Another issue about going to the Canadian embassy, is that it is difficult to go in cos I have been there twice and I was told to fill a form they came back and told me they would reach me as soon as they were done with processing the application. This was over a month ago.

Is there any advice on what to do when we get there?  I saw people claiming appointments and were allowed in. I don't know if it's a good idea to claim an appointment in order to be allowed in? Suggestions would be appreciated especially from someone who went there lately because they seem to have changed their system.

God bless.

@ adewale, debosky, ezinwannm

Thank you all!

@ goldcircle

You guys should have faith and by Gods grace you would all get your visa, I applied to four schools for january session and hope to get admission soon.

hi nairalanders,
i found a website on migration to canada (migrationexpert.com/canada). i visited it and was asked to answer some questions, after which i was told i qualify to migrate as a skilled worker. I even got to the interview stage, after which i was told i can now start processing my visa, but after paying 409 CAD for an advanced migration service.

please are they for real? have they actually helped anyone to migrate?
am confused.

HI NAIRALANDERS,
ANYONE WITH USEFUL INFROMATION ON HOW TO ARRANGE A JOB IN CANADA OR HOW TO GET A WORK PERMIT.
