Lodging is not really a good idea except the money has a source, and a proof for it like something from your sponsor, or proceeds from a sale ...
Are you sponsoring yourself?

modash:


So if I get the money and lodge in my account, it raises a red flag?

deWav:



Thanks for the enlightenment. If one run a PGD program in a particular course can he/she do a masters in another course in the same field?

Kepner:


Okay. I was hoping to get more response on this but I think it'll be best to call them for clarity sake, if need be. Thanks Onyeoma!

Hello NLs/Gurus
I've actually been going through peoples post on this thread and it marvels me how good some individuals can be in helping out in cases like travelling abroad. May you be rewarded abundantly.
Although, it's my first time to seek for advice in nairaland, I hope the gurus in the house can help me out on it.
I've gotten my acceptance letter from a College in Toronto for a Graduate Certicate program in Supply Chain Management.
I've a B.Tech in Transport Management Technology (Option: Logistics Management) and 28 of age.
I can provide Job Offer Letter and 3-6 months payslip, but won't be able to provide my personal SOA because it's nothing to show for it.
I want to use someone that's not related to me but base in UK as my main sponsor and use my blood brother's land purchase receipts as Co-sponsor, but won't be able to provide any other supporting doc like affidavit from my brother apart from his passport data page because he stays abroad and believe you me no need to provide his own SOA due to low balance (he prefers landed property to keeping cash in the bank).

My humble questions:

1) The rate at which going for Graduate Certificate Program in a College can fetch one TRV

2) The effect of my age and achievement in granting TRV

3) How bad is using a not related person as a main sponsor?

4) The positive/negative effect of using someone who base in UK as main sponsor

5) Is providing just my brother's scanned passport data page and his land purchase receipts as co-sponsor doc. good enough?

6) Is it mandatory to provide my own SOA?

7) Knowing too well my degree and current job go in line with my prospective program, I really need like 2-3 samples of how SOP looks like in

order to draft a good one to back up my claims.

Thanks in anticipation.

I understand the route you're talking about but I want to bring to your notice that most universities do not consider college certificates in granting admission into a masters degree. I'm not trying to ruin your plans but One of the major aims of Canadian Colleges is to turn out job ready graduates. If you get admission into a masters program afterwards, the least the university can do is to wave some of the courses you already took at college level. Your admission into a masters degree will be solely based on your Bachelors, Hence Canadian College programs cannot be used as an academic upgrade into a masters degree except in very rare cases(I haven't seen any). If you want an academic upgrade into a masters program then you should be looking at a PGD at the university level or a "Non-Degree" program (e.g. University of Guelph or Saskatchewan).

vicarsenal:

My humble opinion.

Graduate Certificate is a good option, many people have chopped Trv going for it. Age is also not a factor since you're not going for UG.
Your sponsor must be legally based in the UK, cos you'll show his work permit and resident permit.
You'll need his letter of sponsorship, let him send you a scanned copy.
His SOA too is important cos this people want to see available funds. His landed assets is just a plus.
Since you're working put your soa no matter the balance.

Ottawa is a cheap city in terms of housing. I lived in Ottawa for a min and at that time i paid $400/month for a room (in a house with 4 other students). You can say accomodation $5000/yr

CoCoLav:


UCI does not apply to you if this is your first time of applying. Cost of tuition is for a year.

Zattiezat:

When quoting funds available for stay, am i to calculate the tuition, room and board and others for a year and quote or i am to quote the funds available in sponsors account
The total cost when added is about $25000 is that too small to quote as funds available?

CoCoLav:


Calculate it for a year and let the funds available be slightly higher than the total of the tuition + room and board + other

ifegy:


Funds available for stay= how much money is available in your/your sponsor's bank account for you to use for your studies.
Compare the $25K to the amount needed for tuition, accommodation, etc for one year, to see if it's enough.

Oga Shiga and other Gurus in the house, one of my cousin did an arranged wedding with a lady during this america visa lottery program in 2013, but both of them were denied which the VO called MISREPRESENTTION. He is married now and his wife school in canada. Can he apply for canada visa to visit his wife, becos he heard that both countries shares database.

More so, can he state that he has been denied once while filling the canada visa application to visit his wife in canada.
