Have you received an offer letter?... what course did you apply for?

sleekcheek:
My PPR is here guys, it has finally ended in praise!!!!

Will share my timeline soon, meanwhile I plan to use Lagos VFS because from the recent trend it seems their processing timeline has improved. Please since this is my second application and I did my biometric at Lagos VFS do I still have to pay the transmission fee?

Benquip:
I just go a mail from my school that they have extended the deadline to April 9. I pray and hope I gets response before then

sleekcheek:
Thanks for your response, first bank is claiming that they can only send to the school’s bank directly and the school uses a third party to receive its payment. I intend going to their headquarters next week and if that doesn’t work I will try another bank

Oreoluwamipo:
Why not try WU ? Its faster , less stressful and cheaper than Form A

Reasons for First Refusal & How I Tackled It
Purpose of visit- My first degree was in Geography & Environmental Management, I applied to Memorial for masters in Employment Relations. As at the time when I first applied in May 2020, I was yet to get my results for my HR professional exams, but I mentioned it in my SOP. Also, I was still working as an executive assistant in my current organization although I was supporting HR department but have not officially moved to HR. During my second application, I added my CIPM certificates, also included an introduction letter from my company which stated that I was now in HR department. My reference letter from my previous boss also highlighted how I have a natural flair for HR and how he recommended my move to HR.
Personal assets & financial status- During my first application, I used both my mutual funds and my bank statement. In my second application, I liquidated my mutual funds and made sure I explained every lump sum with adequate proof. Also added a letter of support from my Dad to increase my POF.
Ties to home country- I used my family as my ties, talked a lot about how close we are and how we support each other. I also used my pension statement and my new role in HR as my tie and talked about how I will like to come back to Nigeria and change a lot of things in my organization and in the country when it comes to employee development and retention.

Hope this helps

My deadline to defer was in the first week of Feb but I chose not to defer because September was too far. It was a risk as the alternative is to withdraw from the prog and apply again but I held on to my fate and took the decision. I am currently in my first semester of study and hopefully will be in Canada by May when the second semester begins
