No; you don't need to pay anything to get your full offer unless there are slight academic issues on your Transcript which i doubt as a Nigerian Graduate.

You will be issued your full letter of acceptance if you pass the admission processes/requirement's but to take hold/maintain/secure that seat of admission in your program, then you have to pay the stipulated tution fee within a month and to also show commitment... mostly first semester fee for a start.

Nagode!
It will end in praise for us all.
Oh I guess I misunderstood his question, you submit your transcript and if you meet your admission requirement you would be issued letter of acceptance...

No need to pay before you are issued admission letter...

Hello ARRIVA

No one can help you do your police certificate because your fingerprints will be required, and we all know no tow person have the same fingerprint not even Identical Twins.. So you have to do it yourself..

At the same time, you can get your Study visa without a Police certificate as we have seen many applicants on this thread getting their PPR without ay Police certificate..

Peace

Now here is my concern; is it wise I mention them as my marriage sponsor and back it up with pictures which is the major reason they chose to sponsor me or just leave it official as my employer? It is a full sponsorship and the management have sworn d affidavit of sponsorship & also the letter as well as we notarizing the bond and agreement.

Hello Lizabeth

Check the validity of your Medical examination, that happens when the Medical examination isn't valid again..

You should expect an update from IRCC as regards that..

Good morning everyone, I'm kind of confused... my medical was passed Feb 8t. I logged in into my portal this morning then I saw it has been changed to *you do not need a medical exam, we will message you if this changes*

I am surprised you said Access isnt going through, many applicants here have made use of ACCESS Debit card to pay cos of their $300 Limit..

In case you are still having issues with naija debit cards, you can make use of Fluterware or if you have anybody you really trust in Canada, you can send the naira equivalent to the person while the person pays for you..

Hello kingjms010

$I500CAD for Visa Processing?

Guess the Agent has his own DLI Institution in Canada, cos that amount is what most schools take as DEPOSITE FEE..

So one agent is charging the exact Deposit fee of a DLI in Canada? its alright..

If you like yourself, you better make a U-turn..

It’s PPR GUYS��������

My story is long and I may not have the timeline correctly bear with me, I’ll post the second timeline because the first one I’m not sure of since the agent I used didn’t let me have access to my profile

This journey started in 2020 basically, that’s when I contacted one popular Canada agent, she’s the one that got admission for me in Crandall university, which I later regretted because the school is way expensive for a one year program but so far I reach there, every other thing will be sorted. So after I got admission I applied in February 2021 with my husband through the agent, for her services we paid over 2k cad, and we got rejected, I was dismayed after all the money spent and all, so the agent told us to try again but was now advising I apply alone, I asked her why she didn’t say this in the first place and she said she can’t tell IRCC’s decision sometimes they approve both partners, other times they disapprove, for this reapplication she was charging 1500CAD, I wasn’t having it, I was pissed after paying more than 2kCAD and was refused, I was asking for a discount and that was the last time I heard from her, meanwhile my husband was on naira land by then and came across frankrobben , that guy was just God sent, after our first consultation he pointed out mistakes made in my first application and what we would do differently this time around , he said I would have to apply alone and gave me cogent reasons, we agreed and hired him. This guy went to work, gave me a list of documents to provide, wrote a very strong SOP AND LOE, even me sef I believe and he submitted in august, guess what happened, another rejection.. see ehn at this point I was pissed because first the reason they even gave was funny, that I didn’t have career prospects at home even when I submitted a letter from my employer granting me a partially paid study leave, with an opportunity for promotion when I get back. See ehn at this point I was done, I called my husband and frank, told them I’m facing UK Abeg and I’m done, after much back and forth, Frank said madam listen I understand how frustrating this is but trust me it’ll be worth it at the end and that did it. We decided to go with JR because we were sure their reason wasn’t good at all, so we contacted a lawyer in Canada and we began the process, I asked the lawyer how long the process will take she said 3 months, surprisingly after she filed and wrote to the defense counsel stating why we were going to court and how their decision was faulty from the start, in less than 7 days they reached out to her for a settlement and reopened my file requested for updated documents , I submitted them again. They asked for medicals, I gave them and now PPR. Please if you know you submitted a strong application and they still refuse you, if you can afford it go for a JR, my experience taught me that this people don’t go through our application thoroughly, I think once they see Nigeria it’s a negative and they refuse without valid reading . Well it has ended in praise. This platform taught me a lot or my husband a lot because he was the one that introduced me to this platform and this is where we met Frank. I always look out for ppr stories and landing gist and promised myself that I’ll post mine when it happens. It’ll end in praise for all of us. Thank you



Congratulations on your PPR. please, after your JR settlement, how long did it take them to reopen your case?

Hello WiZiggy

What is the status on your tradesystem?

I will advise you contact your bank and inform them that your school's deadline is the next day...

Peace

Hello @makano, I have a similar case as wiziggy, I've been going to the bank almost every day, but the payment finally went through yesterday (15th Feb), which was the deadline for the payment.
My issue now is that, Gtbank is yet to send me a proof of payment (telex), aside the alert (text message) I got.
I applied to Centennial College Toronto, and the deposit letter states that if I've not paid by 15th, I might not get an acceptance letter if the program is full.

I don't know what to do at this point please.

Hi guys, so my husband and I decided to follow the advice I earlier got here on Nairaland that we shouldn't both apply for student visa. He has decided to be the student and for me, open work permit.
Please before we make another mistake, what are the criteria to achieve that, especially for the open work permit.
I currently work at nafdac and that's my only work experience, 1year.

Hello Julmbachu,

One thing in using a 3rd party sponsor is you have to prove beyond doubt why the person(s) have chosen to Sponsor you and what he/she stands to gain from sponsoring you. Also they try to check if the person ever sponsored you or just woke up or morning and decided to sposnor you? Now, is good he/she was your wedding Sponsor, so why would you want to leave that important information out?

So I would advice that you state it clearly in your SOP that he/she have always sponsored you and even sponsored your wedding. Attach wedding card that showed where it is stated he/she is your sponsor, then also attach picture proof (if you have pictures of you, your family and the sposnor at different functions) to solidify your proof. This is just to prove established long term relationship with this sposnor.

Now it happens your sponsor is your MD/CEO and your employer right? Now since the fund is coming from the company account, you will need board of directors letter of authorization, which will state that the board is aware of the Sponsorship and have consented to it.

Also, let your sponsor draft a letter with title "LETTER OF EXPLANATION". In this letter, Let him/her discus this points

1) Why he/she wants to sponsor you?

2) Relationship to applicant and previous sponsorship to applicant. (Why you explain yours in your SOP, this is where your sposnor will now explain his or her own sponsors he/she has rendered to you) please let your own and his/her own explanation not be same (plagiarism) but be explaining same thing. So if you're the one to draft it, let your choice of english be different but mean same thing.

3) How financially stable he/she is. Here, he/she explain how financially stable he/she is to sponsor you without it affecting the business, taking care of his immediate family.

4) What he/she and the company stands to gain from sponsoring you.

Then let him/her conclude the letter with summary of the 4points discussed above (Just summary).

Please since he/she is sponsoring you from the company account, Let him/her notarize this LOE along with sponsorship Letter, sponsorship declaration, board of directors consent letter all typed in company's letter headed paper, sign and stamp where necessary, then send it for notarizing.

Yes you need to attach your statement of accounts, preferably your salary account to show inflows and outflows and not all about sitting balance as you already have sposnor. Payslips, leave letter approval letter, etc

As for the portal to use and apply with, is your choice. I don't encourage anyone to use a preferred one. Both serve same purpose. As per how fast each is, someone by name Semtu applied through the GCKey ( the one applicants here call old portal lol, and got decision so fast that even the ones who applied with the new portal before him/her are still waiting. So the choice is yours. But have one thing in mind, in the new portal, the max size of documents to be uploaded is 2mb while in GCKey is 4mb. So make your choice ok

That's my little opinion. Let others guide you too.

All the best.

Hello Vanmanzik,

Was there any deposite amount asked by the school to be paid at a specified time frame? If non, it is now at your discretion to pay a term or year tuition just to justify and solidify your claim that you actually want to go and study. But note that even paying 1 year tuition doesn't guarantee visa approval.

Many have gotten visa without paying a dime and many have being refused even after paying tuition of the whole program.

All you need is package your application well, show strong home ties back home and enough POF that will show how you have enough fund to pay for tuition(s) and living expenses for the duration of your studies.

All the best.
