Hi nairalanders, I got a quick question to ask.
My tuition fee is $19700, will 5m be enough as my balance in my statement of account after paying the full tuition fee when applying for a study permit?

I’ll be glad if anyone can reply to this.

Thank you.

God bless

Yes it will be enough since you have already paid the full tuition and N5m is more than C$10,000

How will this work? Who will pick it up from GIG? Or will they drop it directly at VAC?

It's safe to use services others have used before with success stories o. DHL or UPS

flexerking:
Hello house, have anyone used GIG logistics to send documents to vac and how long did it take ?

Yes i was. I spoke to DHL and they said I will get it by Monday. How about you?

euphorbia:

We're you able to call? I haven't been able to contact them still

Baphil:
Hello, send to baphilscomestics@gmail.com, let me help you reduce it. Let me know when you have sent it.

I submitted my passport on the 2nd and it took 22 days before I got a notification from VFS that my passport was ready for pickup. It took DHL 3 days to acknowledge receipt from VFS.

I’ll really appreciate your inputs. The program i applied for starts in may. Thank you

Pls How to know a thesis based masters program and a course based masters program?

olabisi6438:
hello house!. Greetings. Can i book for an upfront medical (oct 16 applicant) and i haven't heard anything yet. Not even biometrics

My own is November 6 and I have not received biometrics collection letter but yours is even earlier than mine. You can do upfront medical but it does not really change anything however, it will save time on your application

recxa:


This seems weird to me if you haven't gotten the biometrics request letter. I applied the same day(october 15 In Canada (7pm)/October 16 in Nigeria (3am)) and I received the biometrics request letter that day. And yes, you can book for an upfront medical after submission (I did the same thing). You'll be given an e-medical slip after to upload.

Canada visa is weird, I applied on November 6 with my wife as accompany spouse and my wife biometrics letter came the next work day November 9 but mine has not come since then

Did you pay for a 2way courier?

Hello All,

Please what does this tracking update mean: Your processed passport has been forwarded to the Canada Visa Office on 2020/11/24. I submitted last week Friday, it got to vfs Abuja just on Monday 23rd. Do they send the passports to Nairobi or is the visa affixed here in Nigeria?

Hello,

You can start writing your statement of purpose. There are tips on the thread on how to write it, check page 1.

You can also start gathering all your required documents, scanning them and saving them to your computer. Required documents can be seen on page 1 of this thread.

Wishing you all the best

Hello,

When you read the course details on the institution’s website, it will be stated there. Thesis based master’s have a thesis part of the program. So you would carry out research and produce a thesis.

Course based do not end with a thesis, you might round up with a short paper, a capstone project or something of that nature.

Best wishes

Pls How to know a thesis based masters program and a course based masters program?

Hello,

Don’t do anything fraudulent. You will get banned from Canada for 5 years. The visa officers do their work very well and you will most likely get caught.

It’s better to find another sponsor.


Best wishes

onyinyebibian:
Hi everyone,

Please I need advice, wanted to use my mum as my sponsor but her account balance is not good enough. Someone advised I try and manipulate it.

My question is, will it be better to manipulate
Or try using an uncle that doesn’t have same surname with me.
If there is another option please let me know
Thanks.

Jenireva1:
Hello house, Please is it possible to log my agent out of my account? He hasn’t been taking my calls or replying my messages and have been notified to check my application status. He alone has the login information. I have my application number and he used my email address to create the account. Anyway i create a new gckey username/password?

Hello Jenireva1,

Since you have your application number and a valid (personal) email, go to cic.gc.ca and create a new GcKey account then link your application to the account using your application number.

All the best

Anon123:
Quick one.. Please I wish to ask, can a diploma graduate apply for a PGD program and admission is guaranteed?

Hello Anon123,

I don't think this is possible. An Ordinary Diploma is lower than a Bachelor. Maybe an Advanced Diploma or a Baccalaureate degree. But maybe some programs in some Colleges may allow it. So, its best to check with the DLI.

Cheers!

Samsn456:
Good day everyone, please I need help anyone who can answer this question please help a brother out�

So I got admitted to memorial university and I started online classes in September. I applied for study permit in June and till today I have not gotten a response, my page is telling me that they are still processing my application. I want to know whether anyone here have received the permit and what should I do?

My mother is a business woman but she can not read so she is thinking that I have done something with the fees she gave me to pay, I am very confused right now and I need help please �

Hello Samsn456,

If your mum doesn't trust you then you might end up not been trusted with whatever explanation you give. You need to know that if the period to seek for a refund elapses and if you've been taking classes beyond the refund deadline, you may not get a refund or may get it at a greater loss in total amount. Though, policies defers from respective DLI. You may want to start enquiring at hand just in case, and so you have good explanation for your mum.

The best option for you now is to request for your GCMS Notes. The earlier you request for it the sooner you find your answer.

All the best

Honestly, no one can say authoritatively where the TRV is affixed (either Abuja, Lagos or Nairobi). But from recent timelines, your waiting period is a minimum of 2-4 weeks from the date on the tracking ID.

You may be lucky to get it in two weeks. In any case, once you get your counterfoil notice in your GC key account, then your joy has come.

All the best.

DonRomeo:
Hello guys, I am not a regular poster on this platform, but I commend everyone especially gurus for their assistance. I gained Masters admission in designated institution in canada, but my study permit application was denied on September 30. I had however commenced the studies online while waiting for the decision and I have now paid tuition for the first term which will end in December, 2020. The reasons for my study permit denial was majorly proof of financial resources. I used my uncle as sponsor with over 80million SOA but the VIO seem not to be convinced with the SOA. I want to reapply for the Visa/SP. I have been paying my tuition using my Domiciliary Account with sufficient funds for tuition and living expenses. Can I reapply stating that I now wish to sponsor myself? Or should I maintain that my uncle is sponsoring me and that he transferred all the monies I needed into my domiciliary account? In this case can I just upload my domiciliary account statement only without my uncle's own or my naira account? Waiting for my uncle's account statement takes a lot of time and will delay the application. Please I need experienced gurus in the house to help me out on my chances of getting the SP this time. Thanks.

Hello DonRomeo,

Since you now meet the requirements of sufficient funds, there is no harm being a self-sponsored in your next application irrespective of who was your sponsor in the previous. One thing is to meet the financial requirement and another is to avoid lump sum deposit as possible as you can.

All the best

I don't think Abuja does but Lagos sometimes. Before Beijing got involved, Nairobi took the responsibility.
