Based on the good news we've all been receiving, it is safe to assume that everyone with an AIP got approved. It is only a matter of time before those who are yet to get theirs would. Patience is key here. I doubt if it would extend beyond this month. It appears like IRCC ignored new applications (from October) in order to finalize stale applications. They'll definitely finish the backlog soon and move on to new applications.

Iceman2020:
Any update from your side? My application status has changed to submitted again. Chai!!! This people can kill person o grin

My people have left me ooo.

Fingers crossed shocked

Like how much can one budget in terms of enough cash? cos I won't be paying transmission fee due to the fact that my passport & other documents will be going to the VAC office I did my BIOMETRICS


The amount depends on your location but go there with cash of between N6,000-N8,0000.

Hello house, I got a question

If an Applicant who got VISA & has deferred to Fall 2021, can the applicant be able to travel like 2-3 months before Resumption (Sept 2021)?

If yes, are there possible questions one can be asked at the Port of Entry (CBSA)

Thanks

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Tenianu: 11:15am On Nov 04, 2020
Best to travel 3/4 weeks to school resumption That is the expectation.

Students get away with months before but i will advise against it at this time,with the trend of turnback at POE due to Covid and purpose of travel.

One thing this Study Visa Journey has taught me is PATIENCE


My little advice for TRV hopefuls & Future Applicants

1) I will encourage every applicant to fulfil all righteousness when crafting their Canada study application

Remember "No Two Application is the Same" (there are many factors attached to this statement such as - different academic backgrounds, work experience, Marital Status, the Visa Officers reviewing your application & lots more)

2) Avoid any form of assumption that a Visa Officer won't need this or that, do your due diligence.

3) Show Career/Academic/Logical Progression most especially your Degree/Work Experience should be resonating with the Program you are going for

also,

Show Progression in the qualification of Program you are going for e.g
- B.SC grad (2.1) going for a Masters
- B.SC grad (2.2) & HND grad going for a PGD/PG. Cert/ Post Baccalaureate Diploma

If you have a 2.1 and you want to go for a PG. Cert, endeavor to show cogent reasons in a convincing manner in your SOP why you are going for a PG. Cert instead of a Masters Degree

4)- Assume yourself as a VISA OFFICER, assess your documents, read ur SOP to urself and point out your errors.
- Also regarding ur SOP, avoid any form of Plagiarism to the bearest minimum.
- Show Originality when writing your SOP,
- Be 100% Patriotic - don't say unpleasant things about Nigeria on your SOP, how you can upgrade your career and also help in the improvement of the Nigerian Economy after studying in Canada is very Paramount, talk about it in your SOP.
- Avoid Grammatical Errors in your SOP
- Subheadings Will make your SOP readable, don't write your SOP in Composition/Essay Manner
- Any thing you mention in your SOP, make sure you have a document that confirms it.

5) Read Success Stories of Applicants that have gotten Approval in the Past, most especially from 2018 till date, you might just see an applicant with your exact kind of profile that got approval which u can learn one ot two things from.

6) Also, if you are on the verge of starting or submitting your application, endeavor to ask questions in the forum on things u are not clear of. There are many things you gonna learn here that an agent don't know about or won't even tell you.

If you are an Applicant going for Masters/PH.D, this thread is a training ground for you to learn how to do research before the real research, so don't feel bad if someone tell you to start reading from Page 1, u gonna gain a lot.

7) Take your time and read this Thread Explicitly.
I never had an iota of experience on Canada Study Visa application. Reading this thread in my leisure period for a year helped me tremendously and this made my application strictly DIY (do-it-yourself)

cool Finally,
after Submitting your application, Talk to God to take Control/Charge of your Study Visa Processing, cos in every situation (good or bad) God will still be God.

As we all know the motto of this forum
"it will end in Praises (in frankrobbn's Voice)"

I'm wishing all applicants awaiting a decision from IRCC a FAVORABLE ONE

Remain Blessed Honorable Sir's & Ma's!!!!
Amen. Thanks bro

It just shows that your biometrics has been updated successfully.

Background check is done by processing applications where your education and experience credentials are from - this task verifies your claims and authenticity of documents.

Security check is done by Canadian intelligence and security agencies, with or without cooperation of proper authorities in countries you lived/stayed in, and it is done completely independently from IRCC - IRCC only gets result, which will be positive or negative, without any explanation (as it is classified). This task looks deep into your life(LinkedIn Facebook), activities and associations to find out if you are/were involved or are/were associated in any way with anyone who is/was involved in espionage, terrorism, organized crime, radical movements, crimes against humanity, war crimes, etc..

Criminal check looks into your police certificates and verifies with relevant countries to see if you have a criminal record that may make you inadmissible to Canada.

Good morning gurus in the house, I have read a good number of pages, I respect the assistance been offered.
You guys are the Real MVPs.

Please i have some concerns, Just want to start preparing for my 2021 admission and visa application.

I graduated with 3.85/5 in Mechanical Engineering in 2016, and i am currently working with a FMCG company.

Looking to apply for Masters in either Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, I have seen that history in courses affects visa approval.

I need some inputs and guidance to decide but I'm looking at schools in Manitoba province.

I am seeing issues of funding too, and I am really scared seeing that people have 10, 15 million and still get denied. I don't have anything o, i support my family with most of my money, i depend on getting scholarships, i am fully persuaded i will get multiple ones, but do i still need to some money in my accounts to get the study permit.

And also contacting supervisors before admission is giving is another concern to me because I'm a newbie this admission.

Please gurus, help your boy moti sòrò sòkè oooo

- Any thing you mention in your SOP, make sure you have a document that confirms it.

5) Read Success Stories of Applicants that have gotten Approval in the Past, most especially from 2018 till date, you might just see an applicant with your exact kind of profile that got approval which u can learn one ot two things from.

6) Also, if you are on the verge of starting or submitting your application, endeavor to ask questions in the forum on things u are not clear of. There are many things you gonna learn here that an agent don't know about or won't even tell you.

If you are an Applicant going for Masters/PH.D, this thread is a training ground for you to learn how to do research before the real research, so don't feel bad if someone tell you to start reading from Page 1, u gonna gain a lot.

7) Take your time and read this Thread Explicitly.
I never had an iota of experience on Canada Study Visa application. Reading this thread in my leisure period for a year helped me tremendously and this made my application strictly DIY (do-it-yourself)

cool Finally,
after Submitting your application, Talk to God to take Control/Charge of your Study Visa Processing, cos in every situation (good or bad) God will still be God.

As we all know the motto of this forum
"it will end in Praises (in frankrobbn's Voice)"

I'm wishing all applicants awaiting a decision from IRCC a FAVORABLE ONE

Remain Blessed Honorable Sir's & Ma's!!!!


Finally the golden mail has landed. I can now rest from your incessant emails and worries about your application grin. Thank God for success and I celebrate your victory Lekan. It's a great pleasure assisting with your application. May Canada favour you. I hope you will be around to assist others in achieving theirs. All the best.

It will end in praise.

Hello house. This platform is so rich with plenty people willing to help. God bless us all.

Reapplied August 4, aip August 12.
Medical passed August 12 too
Received bvl yesterday and PPR today.
3rd study visa application.

I submitted the same documents as my previous application and then did an extensive LOE directing the VO to the different documents that they missed. Backed up with prayer.

Thanks to all the bosses @frankroben, @justmellow.

@lekiboboe was so excited seeing that you got BVL already. May it end in praise.

Please for the biometric slip, I don't have the slip from the first time I submitted. Can I submit the BVL in its place or what other document can I submit.

Thanks and may the good news continue to flow



Congratulations to you Madam on your visa approval. I'm glad to be part of your TRV crowning achievement. I wish you the very best.

Indeed, the rain of approvals is getting higher day-by-day, I earnestly hope it touches every application on this platform. My best wishes goes to all applications awaiting a decision from IRCC. Keep faith alive!

It will end in praise
