Hi ,

I'm back again with my questions. I'm travelling with my kids (2) to visit two siblings with PR. I have lived in the UK as a student and visited UK with kids too.

I will be sponsoring the entire trip to Canada, but the flight ticket is quite high for myself and my kids. I can afford to pay without any issues but the reality is that the amount i stated we will be spending on the trip after putting all expense together on our visa form is like half of the money in my savings account. ........balance in my account is 3.9 million if converted to Naira . . i don't know if this can affect my application . Imy business account has constant in flow which has a balance of 4.5 million Naira, i will add both personal and business account to this application.

My parents will also be travelling as its a family holiday to reunite with my siblings we haven't seen them since 2019.

question: Can my father sponsor part of the trip with a letter stating he will purchase our flight ticket ? or my sister in Canada should be the one sponsor part of the trip? or i just sponsor the trip as i already planned to do?

I feel I'm old enough to support myself but will it be a problem if half of my savings is spent on the trip as per what i filled in the visa form. I'm yet to submit so really thinking of the best way to present this to a visa officer without issues . please help a sister , need urgent response .

Although the Visa Officers are not predictable, but you risk Personal Asset and Financial Status concern

Apply in the new portal, apply now that you have valid us visa because you wont be needing statement of account once you still have a valid us visa.

This has been incredibly difficult to navigate.

I am applying for a tourist visa with no family in Canada
What option do I select, where it asks reason for applying for visitor visa??
Options there are mostly to see family or funeral or work..

Which do I select, or what's the right way to apply online.
I just created an account ie the c...key

Eventually got SOWP PPR !!!!!!!!...

2 visitors visa refusal via the new portal
1st was submitted on 22nd November and refused on 30th December
Reasons:
-purpose of visit
-family ties
-travel record
2nd was on 5th January and refused on 20th February
Reasons:
-family ties
-travel record

SOWP submitted on 22nd February 2022,
-Travelled to Dubai on 4th of April 2022 for vacation (my wife came from Canada to meet me there in Dubai) and I returned to Nigeria on 22nd of April and on 1st of May I sent my new travel record via email to kenya, London and lagos IRCC offices with pictures with my wife.I also submitted it as webform. approval was received today, May 5th- 72days!!!. Pure miracle


I should add that I requested for reconsideration of the visitor's visa that was refused in December, and I did not hear from them until today, they sent a second rejection for the visit visa(that is making three visit visa rejections) followed immediately by an approval for the open work permit

I am very excited! I wish everyone waiting - favour!

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Kbrule: 9:25am On May 06, 2022
Guys, I'm in a serious deliemma and I need urgent help.
I studied Agricultural Economics, Extension and Rural Development in my undergraduate level.
Now I would like to go for a Masters in Data Analytics or Business Analytics. In Canada. But the problem is that I don't meet the entry requirements for most schools in Canada.
Some schools in the USA offer foundational courses for people who are coming from other fields but I'm yet to see such for a Canadian school.
I'm also processing my express entry so my thinking is that if I should get EE, it will not only reduce my tuition, it will also make my life easier.


Now, my question is, considering my limitations, should I apply for a diploma in Data Analytics with co-op? And then do a apply for a Masters when I'm there.
Is this even possible?
Is it a waste of money??
Please I need advice
