I'd like to study a design related course like Animation, and interactive media, but I was told that my grades are only suitable for Business management related courses. And only 2 colleges are likely to give me an admission because of my grades.

It depends on the program you want. A bit more details would help experts in the house to advise correctly.

if you are talking about airfare with some logistics "YES", but if tuition fees and other fees "No". The yes depends on the size of your family.

Personally I would not declare the 2 M.Sc degrees to pursue a P.G certificate.
After all requirements for most P.G certs are O' level. It's a personal opinion.. Please wait to here opinions from other experienced people in the house too.

Hello when you sent the updates POF, was it same amount in your account in your initial application that was in the updated POF? Or you had increased the funds in the POF?

Major reason I'm asking.

If at the time of application, you had enough funds for your studies going by the exchange rate at the time.. But after submitting your application, exchange rate has gone way up making the funds in your POF insufficient.

What should one do in this case? They have currently not asked for an updated POF though. Just asking so I can prepare.

Regarding the request for an updated bank statement by the visa officer. There could be a few reasons why they require this information.

One possibility is that they may want to confirm if the funds you initially presented are still available in your account. This is a common practice to ensure that the financial documentation provided aligns with the current status of your finances.

Another possibility is that the visa officer may need to assess whether the amount you currently have in your account meets the Proof of Funds (POF) requirements. This could be due to fluctuations in the exchange rate, where the current exchange rate may have increased and rendered the amount you previously provided as insufficient.

To address this request, it would be advisable to present an updated bank statement that reflects the current exchange rate at the time of submission. This will help provide a more accurate representation of your financial situation and meet the visa officer's requirements.

Please ensure that the new bank statement clearly shows the available funds, the current exchange rate, and any necessary information to support your application.

Please note that these suggestions are based on my personal opinion.

I hope this information is helpful.

Dear house,
I received passport request yesterday but my passport expires in 2026 while my program is till 2027. Do I need to apply for a new passport or submit the current one. My program already started.

Can I submit my passport at any vfs center as my biometric was done in Nigeria but I am currently not in Nigeria.

How long after passport submission is the passport return.

I am heading to Memorial University and I would need help with accommodation. Any help will be highly appreciated.
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by Bettypro(f): 7:05am On Jan 13
Good morning house, please I need the advice of the gurus on this thread. My visa application has been approved and I have received my stamped passport. However, I listed my partner as one of my home ties, I even included pictures of us from 2019 till date, stating that I would come back after my study to get married.

Now, he wants us to get married before I leave in April 2024.

1) If we get married in April, do I need to inform IRCC of the change in my marital status and most importantly, would that not raise concerns?

2) Is there a duration people need to be married for before they can apply for SOWP? If I have to get married, I would want him to join me, maybe after six months or a year.

Please I need advice.

I suggest you consider the option of getting married before relocating. Once you arrive in Canada, you can then apply for your partner spouse open work permit within a month or two of your arrival. There is no specific time, as long as you can provide a valid explanation for your partner's need to join you in Canada.

During your spouse open work permit application, it is important to emphasize the significance of your relationship and the support you need from each other, such as financial or emotional support, can further strengthen your application. This can be explained in your application as the basis for your spouse open work permit request.

The application process may require documentation such as a marriage certificate and wedding pictures, which can help to strengthen your case.

While I have provided answers to a few of your questions, I must inform you that I am not an expert in this field and I may not have all the information you seek. Therefore, I suggest waiting for a knowledgeable professional to provide comprehensive answers to the remaining questions.

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by opebajo11: 1:05pm On Jan 13
Hello everyone,

My application has been messed up by an agent. He submitted fictitious documents and other information that are not true about me.

Problem started when he refused to drop login credentials to my IRCC application portal and he was acting suspicious, so I decided to verify every document that he sent me.

LOA for Conestoga College, course: Information Technology Business Analysis (1372). This was fake. School responded to my mail that information on the LOA does not match their record.

After so much pressure in November 2023 to know the status of my application and requesting for my login credentials to IRCC portal or screenshot of my dashboard and email he used to submit my application. He sent me a refusal letter dated barely 2 weeks after my biometrics. Date on refusal letter, March 29, 2023. I did my biometrics March 16, 2023.

At this point, it was dawn on me that I have been a victim of a bad agent. So I went further to order for GCMS notes+documents. See below the GCMS note:


Text: The applicant has not provided a plan of studies. As such, the applicant has failed to satisfy me that pursuing the selected program of study is reasonable given the high cost of international study in Canada when weighed against the potential career/employment benefits after completion, and the local options available for similar studies.
The applicant did not demonstrate that he/she is sufficiently well established and would leaveCanada at the end of a period of authorized stay.
Bank statement comes from a microfinance bank and is unverifiable. I am not satisfied that sufficient funds will be available for the applicant's studies.
I'm not satisfied on balance that the eligibility requirements of R216 are met and that the applicant would leave Canada at the end of a temporary stay.


The bank statement too was probably a fake one, but thankfully I was not issued a ban.

After carefully looking at the information and documentation he submitted I noticed whole lot of errors:

He stated that I’m single. I have two kids and legally married

Wrong Mother's and Father's name

Gave me LOA for Conestoga College, course: Information Technology Business Analysis (1372). This was fake

Different course submitted on application:


STUDY PERMIT
School: Designated Learning Inst-NL
DLI Name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Level of Study: University - Master's Deg.
Authorization Level: Any Designated Post Secondary Institution
Field of Study: Business/Mgmt/Marketing


He lied that I graduated with first class from a fictitious University with fake course Financial Accounting

My real course was Computer Science

Now my questions is:

If at any point VO would make reference to previous applications submitted while reviewing a new one.
OR
new application will be assessed on its own merits as stated on the refusal letter?

You don't need return ticket. You just need VR at POE for the minor to start school. Except you actually want the child to come back.

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by JMG12: 3:01pm On Jan 13
Using a business account/profile attracts many documents you should know. Increasing the amount in your account lets almost all the money be available in your account.
Themillionman:


Thank you so much...increasing the money ...and also ... is it important I use my business account?
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by JMG12: 3:08pm On Jan 13
You are lucky that you were not issued a ban for fake admission, every application will be accessed on its merit but the difference shouldn't be much.
All the best!
