Bros kindly wait for your original letter of acceptance to be sent to you via regular post or courier.....

You need to start gathering supporting documents for your study permit application. U can apply between March and May, 2013 for a Fall start....

Which school?, what course?, undergrad or postgrad?

All the best

@jesus4all:I read through your post and decided to respond.I do come on Nairaland just to read through postings.Found your question familiar and decided to help.I too applied for a Canadian study permit in May and have done my medical, along with my medical came conditions to pay tuition and accommodation.Tuition was more than what the school asked for.So what I did, after doing my medical,I wrote a letter addressed to the embassy stating their mistakes and others I noticed on my letter.Few days later, I got a call from CDHC clarifying their mistakes.I went ahead and paid my tuition (More than half and submitted it.CDHC called me the very next day after I submitted my additional documents to VAC and asked that I pay the full tuition and full year for accommodation.I told my VO, that I wouldn't pay for full accommodation because I never had the intention of staying on-campus.She told me that they have told other applicants and they have done as such.I stood by by No, stating I had every right to stay where I wanted to.So she asked that If I can get a sort of lease agreement from off campus that would be accepted.then they gave me additional 30days since the other one had expired and then I move my resumption to the next academic term.I accepted, contacted my school and got some outside listing.I am in the process of getting an agreement with a short-term accommodation with an Inn, that houses international students from my University(Arriving. Hope this is helpful.Always write an official letter when sending documents explaining why you took such actions.

Very good explanation

Congrats on ur med call...

I guess we should expect to hear from CDHC by October ending but it is not easy to be patient o. I don turn professional tracker.
Re: Travelling To Canada Part 3 by lft(m): 3:41pm On Sep 28, 2012
Don Cipher:
Wht do u mean by student visa charge for int'l students? Tuition fee is diffrnt 4rm Admin fees (which shuld lie in the group of 'Other' after Room & Board in IMM 1294E). CDHC knws wht u're xpcted to pay thru the official fee schedule frm ur univ whc u must hv submited wit ur applictn...Ur receipt 4rm the sch wuld indicate ur compliance of1yr tuition payment. Landed property is nt a proof of funds but tie.
@lft, if u paid thru ur local bank, they shuld hv given u a telex copy of the funds transfer to ur sch; get them to sign it & submit to CDHC, with a letter stating why receipt isn't ready whc u wuld submit once u receive it.

Thank you Don. That's a very good suggestion. I'll do that and keep you guys posted.

earthgreeners:

My applications are still under review as some of my supporting documents are yet to be received.. I also applied to MUN (wld have a big decision to make when d admission gets thru)...Thanks to my folks in US and Canada (they covered my application fees for d 3 universities)

Get the telex copy of ur wire transfer and send to CDHC as Don Cipher states above.... Submit something from UofM indicating when ur account will be updated

As par the accomodation, u should be able to get an acknowledgement from the office to show you have applied for it and expected to pay only as at when due...

As u submit, recite the last ten verses of the holy quran.....
May Almighty Allah guide you and grant your heart desire...

Jazaka l-Ahu khayran my brother. I wiill follow Don's suggestion and keep all of you updated.

it seems this issue of paying tution is a bit of a bone in the neck. I remember slamdunk had an issue like this , where the school asked him to do smthn and embassy wanted him to another thing and he still got his trv. @spencer try to remain calm, things always seem tough just prior to breakthru.

@All - On the issue of land.

Let's be objective and try and reason in the line of the VOs.

If someone is 'saving' a land, it most likely means there are long-term plans. In accounting, Land is a fixed asset and would usually be classed with long term assets. Now when an entity sells land and property to finance short-term project, it has liquidity issues. My conclusion is land is more likely a tie than proof of funds, if you 'suggest'you wanna sell your land, you undermine your case. Having said that, every case is viewed independently by the VOs.plan,prepare and pray.

Cheers

Y re we confusing ourselves, like my case the deadline for tuition was two days before I submitted my documents, if u pay because of the deadline cdhc will understand, after all we are not heading to same school don't use ur school decision to judge mine as long as I can ask for refund when the need arise I got not fear about that, if augustapplicant and I paid tuition fee it does not. Mean others should pay because not same school and program

True, d DIFFERENT skuls av DIFFERENT requirements, so let every1 hold to UR skul's requirements n stop causing confusion here. My skul didn't ask me to pay, infact, I still hav til d day of resumption to pay... If CDHC asks u to pay, den pay, if not, all gud.

I sent them an enquiry last Thursday and they replied on Monday. If they called u then u probably need an interview. Try and get in touch with them as soon as you can. For starters send an email then call them on teusday. That means you will be going to the embassy for an interview but wait till they tell you to do that. They will give you instructions on how to go about it. Just prepare yourself for every single question as regards to your application because that's what will decide wether or not your application goes through to the next phase. Just be confident and be cool. You wouldn't wanna ruin your chances by stammering and fidgeting or mincing words there. Its well God is with you.
