Marykelly:Option 1 is not more possible. For option 2 and 3, compare costs and time lines. Employers will be able to relate to option 2 more |

For those living in British Columbia, which one of Coquitlam or New Westminster is better as a student to live in? Any idea of the cost of two bedroom there and lastly, is there a group for those living in British Columbia? 1 Like |

Good Day Seniors in the house, I need your advice.... My wife and I finished Masters from UI and we evaluated the Masters degree with WES which we later used in the Express Pool. As at the time that we sent the transcript for WES evaluation, the Certificate was not ready, so we only uploaded the Notification of result on our WES portal. Fastforward to some months later, the Certificate was released and we found out that there was mistake on the date of birth on the Certificate. They misplaced Day as Month & Month as Date. Our Score in the Pool is in the 480s and we are hoping to receive ITA once the FSW draw resumes whereas University of Ibadan cannot effect the changes on time as they said they only print Certificate from abroad. The real date of birth is May 1, 1989 which can rewritten as 01/05/1989 or 05/01/1989(US style). But they wrote January 5, 1989 whereas my month of birth is May. Same Mistake was done for almost all my mate Hope you saw where the mistake is? Please what can we do incase we receive ITA soonest and we are to submit our application because the error is corrected? |

Alchemist01: Why Are you planning to travel with groundnut oil? It can pour and mess up your luggage plus its not expensive as far as i know. You should consult cic website for the meat and fish to be sure. 1 Like |

Please family, I honestly need your clarification on this matter as am on a very tight corner now. I arrived Canada in May with a student Visa, I paid my first semester fee before coming and recently paid for 2nd Semester fee with the intention that I'll complete my program. However, as a mature student with unique situation and a child here, It's been too much struggle for me and it's already affecting my grades. Lately, am beginning to consider other easier or better options of getting PR without violating the terms and conditions of my study permit, one of which is the Pilot program for Child Care giver/Personal Support Worker. 1.) Please does a study permit holder qualify for it? 2.) If yes, are there any implication? Like, misrepresentation issue? 3.) Is there any other better option for me as I realized am not ready for studies now considering the stress I went through before coming here to face study stress again. 4.) If it's possible, which province is more favorable as am willing to relocate anywhere to achieve the PR/Citizenship dream? 5.) Is it necessary to withdraw my husband's SOWP application to avoid misrepresentation issue? 6.) I still have plans to go back to school, but that will be after settling down, this time as part-time Please I'd really appreciate your contribution on this matter so as to make the right decision on time before losing my 2nd Semester fee as there's deadline for withdrawal. Thank you all in advance. |

itwillendinprai:this is why I usually laugh when people attempt this. You came as a student to study not to do psw, your best bet is to return your child to Nigeria, complete your studies. Looks for job and apply for pr using provinces nomination or cec. This is a lesson to many who think they can easily hustle their schools fees. If you dont have money or a sponsor stay away from Canada 10 Likes |

If you put your mind to it, you can do it. With the way you sound you've already convinced yourself that you can't complete your studies. The path you want to thread is risky, I'll advise you hang in there, complete your studies and try to get a job. Remember that nothing good comes easy. itwillendinprai: 6 Likes |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by Nobody: 8:44pm On Jul 18, 2021 |
Queenmama03:Work and study at full-time is not humane. You see folks split and add more semesters to complete their studies. |

Lagbaja88: You just judged me wrongly, but it's fine, I still appreciate your contribution. Truth is, I don't have any financial issues whatsoever, I was very comfortable and still comfortable before leaving Nigeria. I am not working as a student here and don't have such plan even with my student work permit for now. As a matter of fact, I can comfortably pay for a 2 year program here without working, so money is not the issue, it's the stress of studying that is beginning to affect my health.. Please don't try to discourage others as some people are schooling and working here, it may not be easy for them, but it's not worth generalizing it to discourage people that can afford to do so. I only need advise on another pathway to PR on a study permit without misrepresentation. 20 Likes 1 Share |

nowhere: Thank you for your contribution, am actually not working and don't intend to, at least till my program is over as I cannot handle the two at same time. Only studies alone is giving me this headache not to talk of adding work to it. Am looking at other options to PR aside studies, otherwise am considering going back to Nigeria. |

itwillendinprai: Many graduates coming from Nigeria usually underestimate the amount of work it takes to do graduate school in developed countries like Canada and the US. Contrary to what most people think, graduate school in these countries is actually very difficult. Usually there is a lot of assignments and homeworks, and this is not something the Nigerian student is used to. Besides, most of the concepts are not discussed at a high-level, but usually a more detailed often difficult low-level filled with maths (for STEM) or lots of readings (for Management). This can be a very big problem for the Nigerian student who isn't used to this method of study. But the good news is that if you do not give up, you will succeed. It may appear difficult, but if you put in the required effort, ask for help from your professors or from fellow students, you will eventually understand. My advice to you is to dig deep within you and find that extra effort to succeed. Don't give up. Having a kid is not an excuse. There have been many people like you who made it eventually through graduate school. You just need to tell yourself that you can do it. 21 Likes 1 Share |
