The family information form does not have the validate option. And there are certain areas where they say you have to sign e.g if you have no kids there’s a portion of the form where you sign a declaration that you don’t have any kids. I suggest you print only this particular form and sign then scan it back.


Ehhhh!!!! Please the person in question is apply via online not paper o.. for online, u don't download, sign and scan the Immm forms o

From my own point of u
Yes u can, and u will likely get the Admission,

But

1. the V.O won't see a Progression in Someone with a Bachelor Degree going for a diploma... That's not a Progression... With ur Undergraduate degree (2.2), ur best bet is to go for a Post Grad. Diploma / Post Graduate Certificate program.

2.With a Bachelor Degree in Educational Management ur best option is to go for an higher degree that correlates with ur Undergraduate Program and show progression .e.g a B.SC in Geology going for a Masters or PGD/PGC in Exploration Geophysics

3. if u rilly wanna have this course switch of Edu. Mgt. To Web development, u av to convince the VO on aw ur fmr. Degree resonate with ur intended I.T Course and also why u are going for a Diploma instead of a PGD/PGC..

Probably u might av had I.T trainings(web development etc.) before or gotten some certifications or works u av done as regards the I.T Course (web development).. Then they might be an headway in that

4) And if u decide not to talk about ur Bachelor degree and decide to use ur SSCE Result to apply, fine u might likely get d admission as well

But

The VO would definitely ask what u av bin doing all this while, cos the Age gap will surely show..

So those are the things I feel u should look at bfor making a conclusion on why u going for a diploma.

I think u should seek for more suggestions & ideas from the the Gurus and experience folks in house on this matter of yours..

Stay Safe
I know I have to go for post graduate or masters degree but I wish to study web design and development..and you know I may not be qualified to do it as masters degree or as post graduate because of what I did in my first degree. I also wish to learn it from the beginning..that's why I'm going for a diploma..also..can they accept two WAEC results or Can I just use my degree results alone? Also...i need names of colleges that can accept that
Thanks for your concern

Good morning people..pls can I use my degree result to apply for a diploma program in any college at Canada or is just only waec..and if it's waec, can I use two waec results cos during my undergraduate days..I used two sittings for my ssce results..moreover, I did education management during my undergraduate days with a 2nd class lower grade but would like to put in for IT course(website design and development). Quick reply will be appreciated

Use your degree to apply for an advanced diploma or PGD or a masters.. applying for diploma is not the right way, saying this cos at the visa stage, u will see why

Check the instructions. They said you can use additional pages of the form if you need more spaces i.e download more copies of the form, fill and attach as one pdf.

Do I need a medical exam to get a visa?
If the duration of your visit is six months or less:

Generally, no medical examination is required.

However, a medical examination is required if you intend to work in an occupation in which the protection of public health is essential. Please see Jobs for which you need a medical examination for more information.

If the duration of your visit is more than six months:

You will need a medical examination if:

you have resided or stayed temporarily for six or more consecutive months in a [/b]designated country[b] or territory in the one year immediately preceding the date you sought entry into Canada. This applies even if you are a citizen of a country where you do not require a visa to enter Canada

Good evening house,

Please I am having issues signing my imm forms.. I am applying online. How do I handle this please.. secondly, I am from a polygamous home.. i have 2 siblings from my Mum and 6 step siblings.. Is it advisable I add all in my family info.. I am really confused. Please I need advise. Thank you �.

It states that step siblings are still your siblings and it’s better you include them now because if you omit them you will have a hard time proving they are your siblings should you want to sponsor any of them in future. Ask on CIC site for more clarification.

Fine its ur wish study d course , but
The VO wouldn't look at that.... They would definitely look at it at an another perspective which might likely not favor u that's why

DAT about two sitting I dnt know about that
But
Even If u wanna apply with ur WAEC, the AGE GAP would definitely come in, and dey will look at it that ur age difference (Mature Applicant)is higher for the diploma program u are going for....that u should be going for a Masters of PGD/PGC

My own suggestion is that
If u have had experience of Web Design bfor, and u have had projects u av done on it then
U will need to do the talking in ur SOP, so as to convince d VO, why u are going for a Diploma in Web design instead of an Higher Degree, and why u are switching from Educational Management to Web Design

Note this : Getting Admission is d first hurdle and important (most times quite easier getting admission with colleges)

2) Getting ur Study Approval is Very Importanta....

Oga Frank please can you help with answer to this

If you are still in the process of uploading I would
Recommend you click in the question mark ? Icon on the passport upload section,

if i remember clearly, it states passports and travel history. So you need the Datapage of old passport as well as scan all the visa you have. It’s a way of defending the travel history you filled.

Like I said check and see the requirements on the question mark sign.

You don't need to print and sign any of the IMM forms when applying via the online route. You're only required to fill the right information, date the forms, and upload them into their various columns.

Note - After successful uploading of documents into their various platforms, you will be prompted to use your full name as written on your passport to electronically sign the application and transmit the document to IRCC for due visa processing.

The current passport bio data page should be uploaded in the Passport column provided in your mycic account. Your relevant travel histories should be scanned and uploaded in the clients supporting column. Please don't upload your expired international passport bio data page. It's totally irrelevant to the immigration of Canada.

In the meantime, if you have questions or concerns of any kind. Don't hesitate to reach out here for assistance.

The presented link from you is referring to medicals, but the question in particular on the IMM form is asking if the applicant has lived abroad for 6 consecutive months in the last years. If the answer yes, then the applicant to provide a police character certificate from the designated countries.
