God knows everything.

Yads97:


Wow 15 weeks?? There is someone here who applied online last month and got refused exactly 3 weeks later. There’s another who applied last month too and got BVL early this month. Don’t really know why you guys haven’t even gotten any update at least on your applications since applying. I sincerely pray it’s for the greater good.

Kunleraji:
Hello,
Good morning everybody,
Please who here has used my bank statement for his/her application and how does it work?, also how do I attach the ticket to my application?

also I own a few shares but i’m not the one sponsoring myself,does it make sense to add the shares certificates as a part of my application ?and if yes,is it under client information or proof of funds?

lastly,If I add an employment letter,must I also add my salary account statement?,because where I work is a family company so I don’t receive a salary,just allowance from my parents

please gurus here,help me
It will end in Praise.
God bless us all

Please, does anyone here know of someone schooling in University of Saskatchewan or based in Saskatoon who can help me physically follow up on my admission?

I applied to University of Saskatchewan's May 2021 intake of Master of Professional Accounting (MPAcc) program since February 27, 2020 and my admission status in PAWS has been 'Complete ready for review' since March 4, 2020. I have sent my CPA transcript assessment to the MPAcc business office by email, but they hardly respond to emails.

Thank you.

Hi guys,
My case is quite peculiar. To think i gave my testimony in part 11 but i couldn't travel to school anymore because of a major issue. Now i am starting the process all over again. Please i need your valuable advice on these.
1. I was granted a student study visa in 2016 but i couldn't go, i also did not know that i was supposed to inform IRCC that i will not be able to make it. will this affect my new student visa application since they most likely will have all this info on record?
2. Should i mention it in my LOP during my new study visa application, that i was once granted a study visa and explain the reason i couldn't go?
3. can i send a message to IRCC now to explain before i begin the whole process of applying for a visa?
i will appreciate your response(s). Thank you

Hello Crystalheart,

A business size is of no principal interest to IRCC and the VO are required to assess applications on if all the requirements are met and if meeting such requirements will outweigh the source of funds.

For an easily verifiable and well-substantiated evidence, the CAC document holds much esteemed recognition per se. It can't raise no other colour of flag including the red colour, even if its recently registered. There are other options of showing the most applicable like the Business Receipts/Customer Transactions, Contracts, Revenue Payment, Income Tax Clearance/Certificate et al.

In the foregoing, to be able to lay a proper claim of being attached to the mother root, the importance to include tangible documentations cannot be overemphasized.

All the best

Is your student visa still valid?

Pee2Jay9:
Thanks for your reply but how about you obtain permit for a year program and choose a 2 years program eventually before you travel? Just inform IRCC by email or at POE?

Ymc007:
everything has expired. Both visa and passport

Crystalheart:
Good day brother
Please check your DM
I would appreciate if you could help review my LOE.
I look forward to your reply.. Thanks

dommakavelli:
Whatever you do, I encourage you to include a copy of all pages of your old passport, including all visas and data page. If you can't do that, make sure to include the data page, all visas and stamps in your old passport.

I think your new application would be assessed based on your current profile. But it won't hurt to refer to your old visa and explain why you could not make that trip. Just make sure your reasons are positive. Maybe you got a job or other study opportunities. Include proof if you have it. Meanwhile, if your reasons are not positive, maybe family emergencies, lack of funds, health etc, you can make it positive as well. You just need to be creative and be smart about it.

Good luck

Hello Ymc007,

By now, your permit should have been cancelled as stipulated by IRCC under her 90 days rule of it becoming invalid if study doesn't commence within this period.

Don't be bothered and do speak about your previous approval followed by your claims. A good letter with sellable reasons to why you couldn't resume your studies or travel to Canada will be the ultimate. If there is feasibility to show proof that you stayed back with best reason(s) of family circumstances i.e. poor healthy of a closed family member or loved one, contract execution, appointment etc. It is advice to also reassure IRCC that if granted, it will be made use of this time.

In all this, irrespective of the previous successful outcome, there is still no guarantee of a positive outcome, especially if some of the requirements aren't met.

Since this isn't a case of inadmissibility, the need to contact IRCC prior to filing your re-application is of less significance.

P.S: A better tone for this letter should magnet compassion, empathy and patriotism.

All the best

Yeah I have to agree with you. And the delay isn’t affecting just Nigerians. I’m in a Pakistani and Indian forum as well and they all have been waiting also. I’m just confused as to why some people who applied last month were sorted out. But in all, we just have to be patient.

Preshy2004:
Pls someone help me. my husband is sponsoring our boy for an undergraduate course. His company has given him introductory letter. Pls the question now is
1. Is it necessary for them to state his annual income? Because he has his payslips.
2. Is it necessary to submit employment letter hence there is an introduction letter?
3. His employment letter has a different surname because he did a change of name in 2008. Pls how do we go about that?
Thank you so much
