Any Canadian College that waive processing/application fee?

Junene:
Hello Nairalanders! please I need your help. I got my visa in October last year and immediately applied for my kids. Since then, no response. I traveled ahead and left my kids behind because school was resuming in April but it was the hardest period of my life.
I spoke with my program coordinators and they allowed me come back home since my courses were virtual.

This is my dilemma: After doing the Canadian life for a few weeks I’ve seen how difficult it’ll be for me to combine school and 2 toddlers (2&4 year olds) without my husband (he’s staying back) and I think I should wait for both of them to be of school age first. Even if I want to come with them, I’ll have to reapply and with all these IRCC long waiting times, the visa may not come in time for me to go with them in September. If I abandon this study visa (it expires in Feb 2023), will I have issues getting a new one when I’m ready (maybe in 2 years)? What would you guys honestly advice?

See ehn,sometimes all we need is a strong will and encouragement.I am leaving on a few weeks and leaving my kids behind(2 and 5)with their dad,the year old has a visa and the 5year old is a US passport holder,I know I can’t cope with them and school,that’s why I am leaving them,hubby will apply after I land and hopefully everything works out as planned even though is he moving permanently yet ,we will work it out.
It won’t be easy,but you should be ready to put in effort, make all necessary arrangements to ensure your kids are comfortable and in safe hands,it’s just for a little time,come home as often as you can and God will perfect your plans.

Its PPR guys! God is indeed faithful.

Family application. Study visa for kids and SOWP for spouse. I used the GCkey Portal.

Here is my timeline:

Submission: May 4, 2022
Upfront Medical for all: May 10, 2022

Medical Passed for all: May 19, 2022
Eligibility Review: June 9, 2022

This is to encourage those who want to go for family application that it is doable. Details of documents submitted will be posted soon. I got worried at some point because I did not include Police Clearance Certificate. But we got the approval without it.

I gathered all the information I used for my application from this platform. God bless you guys! The commitment to the success of others on this platform is amazing.

No, better a complete and well put together application than one that's isn't so good...Worst scenario you defer to September...but 5months is good...

Congratulations to everyone that got there own. And congratulations in advance for those that will also be getting there's in weeks to come.

olutoyiin:

Good morning family, please I'm.filling my imm1294e form and there are some sections thats a bit unclear.
1. For the cost of study I'm going for a 4 year PhD program, does this means tuition for a year or for four years ?
2. Similarly does the funds available for my stay means for the entire duration of program or per year?

3. I received a fully funded scholarship when indicating my fees would be paid by other do I simply write "Scholarship"?
Note I had previously chose "No" in the eligibility page inquiring about scholarships because the awarding institution in this case my University wasn't listed among the awarding bodies


Pls guys help me clarify, thanks again

I am seriously begging for inputs, pls do not ignore

WiZiggy:
Please can you explain clearer, I read a lot of people send their passport to Abuja instead of Lagos, despite staying in Lagos, why is that?

Abuja is way faster. I sent mine to Abuja from ib last week Thursday, it got to Abuja on Monday it was stamped on Tuesday and left abuja back to Lagos on Tuesday, got to lag on Wednesday and I received it today. It took basically a week.

I’ve gotten admission for Niagara winter 2023

Congratulations, God will perfect every other things pertaining to you... Mine is next in Jesus name amen
