Thank you @Time2soar I'm really grateful... Please should I state that I have been given the employment before I leave here or I will be given the employment upon my return?

And I was thinking of combining both my dad and mom. If she can be a co sponsor to support and take care of the living expenses with solid proof of source of income, so as to reduce the pressure of only him. Although he has everything in his account. Don't know if that will be helpful.

Not sure where you got your findings from but I can tell confidently that transcripts are not compulsory. In addition to your email, research on the Supervisor’s profile then draft and attach a very good research proposal based on his/her area of interest, that could be a plus. This worked for me.

The Minimum Requirement for Masters in Canada is a 2.1,

In my own opinion

You best bet is to apply for a PGD or PG. Cert in a telecommunication related field (based on your 12 years working experience)

Google and Check out
PG. Cert, Wireless Telecommunications
@ Humber College, Ontario
January 2021 intake

Also,
It will be better if your Husband and Son Stay back first, cos apart from Landed Properties & Parents,
your Husband and Son are good HOME TIES (Something' that can compel you to come back to Nigeria, cos you must compulsorily show that after your studies you would come back to Nigeria), probably if you get there and you are settled, u can make a move for ur Husband & Son to come

But it also depends if your son is still in a stage he needs the mother care (1 month old to like 1 year old I guess)

Do await more inputs/response from other members

Hello everyone. Please I need someone to help clarify something. I got admitted into a college in Ontario for this September session, paid the tuition deposit and have even applied for my visa online (yet to receive first stage approval though). Now my issue is after I submitted my visa application, something came up which resulted in using out of the funds I declared. Is this going to affect my application in any way? Thank you.

Time 2 Soar; Thank you for your immense contribution. Please i also have a question which is similar to a question i have asked before but need to buttress my question further so i can be properly guided. I got an admit to Vancouver Island University with total estimated school fees of around 50k dollars and also go admit to University Canada West with estimated total fees of around 32k dollars. Both MBA admissions. I would like to ask if you feel strongly for me to pick one of these schools and based on the fees and if yes which one should i pick? I choose to settle for these schools basically because i dont have a GMAT score nor GRE and my overall IELTS is 6.5 but have quality years of experience, professional accounting certifications and good GPA. This question is also to the house . What do you think. I am asking should in case there is a better University i can take advantage of that i am unaware of based on what i have now. Would be expecting your response my gurus in the house. I am planning to apply for Jan or February 2021 resumption.
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Spotlights(m): 10:31am On Aug 10, 2020
I think this is not really right and correct.
In the AIP letter, it stated the procedures in which application is been treated and certainly decision is usually based on the first stage for eligibility,
funds, purpose, family ties and intention. Once that is passed, the second is a general and regular routine to know about your records of health, act (criminally) and backgrounds of all checks.
Getting AIP means a lot and close to getting Visa.
Haven't heard of application been refused on the second stage. It's either straight refusal from stage 1 or to proceed to final stage. #MyOpinion
Frankrobbn1:



Wow! Just yesterday and today, this thread is already on page 209, so fast shocked shocked, what info have I missed?. I can relate how everyone is showing great happiness about the new update and the massive AIP letters going about on this platform. In all honesty, I celebrate with you guys and hope it ends favourably for you all in the later stage.


With regards to your question @Tonyodg, majority of first time applicants will definitely receive a notification from IRCC declaring that they have passed the first stage approval in principle. This is because the requirement for the first stage is basically about the applicant's proof of funds and confirmation of genuineness of acceptance letter from the DLI in Canada. The other IRCC standard visa processing assessments which includes Criminality, Overall Eligibility, Security and Information Sharing with other countries are yet to be initiated by the senior immigration officer on the applicant's application. I will probably say that its just the R10 check that has been done so far by the immigration case analyst at the High Commission of Canada, which is primarily to ensure that applicant submitted the right documents for the program (study permit) they have applied for.


Applicants should be more concerned about the second stage as there are higher chances that the visa officer at the High Commission of Canada may likely reject the application if the applicant hasn't demonstrated that they are a bonafide student to undertake the proposed program in Canada. Be properly enlightened that it is at the second stage, the Visa officer will assess the overall credibility and reasonableness of the applicant's intended program in Canada, whether or not is in tandem with their previous studies, current employment or career path/future goals. More importantly, however, the biometrics enrollment details will be used to run a background check on the applicant by the CBSA in an effort to ascertain the applicant's criminality and security status. Kindly note that it is at this second stage the Visa officer will review the entirety of the application and make a final decision. Please be advised that commencement of online classes doesn't influence the discretion of the visa officer or guarantee an applicant's application success. A visa officer can still refuse the application if the applicant doesn't meet the IRCC Act requirements for study permit issuance.

My introspective thought tells me that IRCC is using this new update (AIP letters) to lure applicants into starting their programs from their home country as they can't afford to lose international students for the fall 2020 semester. In a nutshell, let's be optimistic that everything ends well.


I hope this information is helpful to everyone.


As always, it will end in praise.

If you have a good english grade, please ignore.
Once you're granted admission, the school would set up an English replacement test for you instead and it's free

You don’t need ielts for Vancouver island university Cos I got admission without one albeit your transcript showing you where taught in English would suffice... and yes you don’t need GRE also.. my problem with VIU is that the fees is exasperating .. VIU fees is not for the faint hearted my opinion go for a cheaper school

What specialization are you taking on finance, marketing or leadership, if you are taking on finance they are still several schools with just msc finance, I am even surprised that you got MBA at ucw despite not having GMAT. My own point is you need to check on through the courses offer to know if you are satisfied with it you could also check LinkedIn for alumnis of both schools to ask questions. Also I noticed you said you have accounting qualifications ,if you aren't done with your Acca you could take advantage of UCW Acca pathway.

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Spotlights(m): 11:01am On Aug 10, 2020
I think that may be a refusal as decisions to proceed is always from the first stage considering all checks then to proceed to medicals and PC
fratermathy:
AIPs are trickling in now. I wonder if they intend to give all applicants an AIP. How will they notify applicants if their applications do no move past the first stage? Will they make them wait till after biometrics?

I
Good morning guys,the comments by Frank is valid and we should all prayerfully approach stage 2 AIP.

See below extract from Cic site,read it deeply...... any changes is Deep!

“Stage 2: We check your application for admissibility and any changes to your eligibility

In this stage, an officer reviews your application for

a medical exam, if needed
police certificates, if needed
your biometrics
any information that changed after we reviewed your application for eligibility“

Please ensure you are still eligible after biometrics and medical....most especially POF wise, The VO will conduct a full review at stage 2 let us all be ready............may all AIP holders get final approval after review.Amen

I reason with your points and at the same time, I am bringing to your notice that my brother was refused SP January 2020 based on Family ties and not convinced he would leave canada after his studies. (A 15yr boy)

I reapplied for him on 14feb and he just got his AIP on 5th Aug even before the AIP letter, IRCC requested that he should send a notarized parents consent letter allowing him to stay with a custodian as it wasn't submitted initially, just the Canada custodian letter alone was attached and after few weeks the AIP letter came through.

Thank you for your input sir. Will Going for ordinary diploma in mgt course raise red flag as per career progression? Since i dont have a background in mgt, is a must i do Pgd or i can do ordinary diploma?

Hello Dayjeee,

If there is no clear reason or intention on why you chose a Diploma ahead of a Master or PGD/C after a B.sc, then stay clear. Its important to be able to demonstrate that the program choice is a progression whether a Diploma, Advance Diploma, PGD/C, Master or Ph.D.

Settling for a program that doesn't show progression isn't impossible to secure a visa with it but the chances maybe slim and requires furnishing the VO with satisfactory reasons and proven that you're a genuine student.

If you decide to go for a Management course, endeavour that you have at least some exposure or experience. This way, you can be able to make a case. If you understand your situation and have the know-how of what the Diploma program entails and its benefits, you may succeed. If not, PGD/C or a Post-Baccalaureate Diploma may just be your best bet outside Master.

All the best

Hello Amobola,

Save yourself the time and resources. Since you already secured your admission, you won't be needing your WES evaluation report. Its not a requirement for SP route.

All the best
