Hello Adunola,
I believe it's possible to get an approval. Package your application well with a good sop. Include a breakdown of your living expenses and how you are going to care for your kids. If your kids are not up to school age. Personally, I will leave the relative

Thank you so much, MsJu. The breakdown of expenses and how to care for my kids, should that be in my SOP or LOE?

mcobex:
Applying with your children at the same time will kinda reduce your chances of approval (except you have another strong home tie), adding your aunt will reduce your chances even more.
Best bet is to apply alone or at most with your children. If you must apply with your children, try to make provision for their education and upkeep before applying (like getting them a school or daycare, depending on their age). I
I want to believe funds won't be an issue for you, so try to get them a school in Canada before making your next move.
NB: But if you don't have any strong hometie, then you can apply alone first and use your kids as your hometie, once you get your approval you can now apply for them

Thanks so much. I will look into daycare options because they are both below three. Thanks, again

For the bolded, I don't think so especially if the kids are still young.

That will be great. During my time, I even included evidence that they were on a Child care center's waitlist.

Hello everyone, I have a question bothering my mind.

I have been giving an admission into one university already and I have accepted the admission.

Now I realized that the school fees is huge and I have applied to another school. I'm worried, will the new school know that I have already been giving an admission into one Sch and that I have already applied.

Please help clarify

No. They don’t have access to such information. And even if they do, there’s nothing wrong with applying to multiple schools. Feel free to apply to as many schools as you wish till you find the one that is best for you.

Hello, I received this email this morning from CIC, what does it mean please? I submitted my application on 6th February, medicals requested 3rd March, submitted medicals 10th March, medicals passed 12th March. Since then nothing from them. Thanks

It means they are still working on your application.

Qudkom:

well applying for two different visa categories is called DUAL INTENT. However, I won't advise you to do that. Canadian immigration encourages applicants applying for temporary and permanent visa categories but from a Nigerian perspective and difficulty in getting visa approvals I believe sticking to one category is advisable going forward.

thank you so much. I just replied your pm. Please check.

Good morning to you all..., I want to make an enquiry as regards Company CAC Certificate..

Due to this 4MB size limit, apart from my Sponsors CAC Certificate, is it compulsory for me to upload the documents attached to it.

Because I intend to upload only the Company CAC Certificate..

Thanks

Hello Bro
I need clarification regarding PR. Let say you did a year graduate program from Ontario and decide to do another program, let say graduate diploma or master program from Atlantic province. After the program one can apply for 2-3 years working permit. Does that help in when applying for PR from Ontario to Atlantic province point of view, i mean does help in when applying for PR since you have study in 2 province ( Ontario & Any Atlantic province).

I do know both have pros and cons but main point is PR.

Hello Gentlemate00,

Irrespective of the province you studied or whether you studied in two different provinces, you are still reliable to a PGWP. However, before choosing a province to study, endeavour to ask questions or conduct a survey about employment prospect, PR flexibility, Population, Environment etc. Also, each provinces has their own PR categories/programs which ease International students/Workers in becoming a PR, you just have to understand the requirements for each provinces in becoming a PR. However, the PGWP is the most important bridge between having the required Canadian experience and PR.

All the best

Keep your fingers crossed. You have gotten it. The challenge you may face now is that their VAC ( VFS) all over Africa are not accepting/processing passport for now due to COVID 19 - only VFS can take your passport to their Lagos/Abuja office for stamping.

They may be delaying your passport request because of this challenge. But, bro, you will still get it. You still have enough time to prepare.

All the best. I have mailed you.

Are you self sponsored?

Kinzeerichy:
Greeting all, if my uncle is sponsoring me and I intend to submit his statement of account, please is it extremely necessary to include my uncle’s birth certificate notwithstanding that he bears same surname with me which is even on his Int’l Passport?

Hello Kinzeerichy,

It will be nice to include his birth certificate. This helps established proper relationship and provide clarity as your paternal uncle. On the other, his passport will only show that you bear same surname without an established history of (family) relationship. Thus, if you can't get his birth certificate, his PP will suffice.

Adunola20:
Hello Everyone,
I have been a silent reader since last year. Now, I am preparing to submit my application. I am planning to travel with my two sons and an aunty to help me with their care while I study for my PhD. I will be applying for visitor visa for them.

Has anyone tried applying for a relative like an aunt? If yes, how did he/she go about justifying the reason why she needs to go? I will appreciate tips to increase her chances of being successful.

I know people like Goingforward, MsJu and some others have been successful with their applications with their children. I will be grateful if someone can help me read through my statement of purpose and letter of explanation.

I will really appreciate the help of the gurus in the house.

Thank you.

Hello Adunola20,

Before putting in a family application, there are certain things to put into consideration.

1. Financial capacity/capability
2. A very solid Home ties
3. Personal/Sponsor's level of establishment
4. Demonstration of been genguine

The most important aspect in every application whether Family or Single application is to be able to demonstrate first a clear/genuine intentions of studying followed by demonstrating how you intend to meet up the tuition fees for the subsequent years after the educational expenses for the first year has been fully met. Hence, your financial budget (at least for the first year) should be more than your expenses (for the first year also.

There is always a lot of work in convincing the VO on family application but not impossible. Sometimes, the VO looks beyond financial status or capability to assess the PA on how well the study genuineness was demonstrated. Also, efforts should be put together in

1. Securing a daycare/nanny/babysitter/high school as the case may be.
2. Study plan - talk about the importance of your research and its prospect, funding etc
3. Sponsorship Letter - the budget for the children every month and measures put in place etc
4. LOE - specifically to enlighten the VO why your children must come with you etc. If the children are very young, use the age as a lobby to express your points/reasons.
5. Established that your spouse/sponsor has a reliable and steady funds/cashflow - investments, fix deposit etc

However, if you are convinced that you can meet the financial and eligibility requirements of IRCC then you can decide to include your aunt in the application but not as a aunt but as an existing nanny. There must be solid proof like

1. A picture of her with one/the/some of the children from ab inito
2. Letter(s) of recommendation for her to be employed as your children's nanny from either religious or socioeconomic organizations etc
3. Letter(s) of attestation from your children's school of recognizing her as their nanny


Family application always comes with confusing and conflicting application methods as what works for A may not work for B. So, other approach will be to put in a single application. You may say the children are too young but many successful applicants who have the mind have done so and later came for the children when settled.

Lastly, if you feel you can demonstrate the aforementioned 4 points above, then the family application might just be for you.

All the best

Good evening, please is there any implication for not submitting application before the deadline. Someone advised us to hold on a bit because COVID-19 could be a reason why they may refuse visas this period. We have less than 30 days left

How?!
