Fhemmy, what reasons do you think a family friend can put to show he is willing to spend so much amount on one? I think these guys are still too laid back in their thoughts because an average person who knows about the Nigerian culture knows we have too many uncles and aunts that are not in any way related to us. I remember whenever I applied for my US visa, all I told the VO was that my aunt is sponsoring and I gave him her account statement lo ba tan. I just find it annoying when people get scared because their sponsor isn't bearing same last name with them or they cannot show any deep relationship with the person. The worst is that people suggest the use of pictures. Can't I use someone else's picture with mine and claim that is the uncle or aunt?
Fhemmy, as a Veteran on this thread, I would suggest you help address the issue to allay the fears of those whose sponsors are not their parents. In my opinion, I would advice such person to state in the sponsorship letter that the person is a distant uncle/aunt depending on the gender or you could say he/she is a 2nd cousin to your dad/mum who was responsible for his education and the only way he felt he could compensate them is to sponsor you since he saw that you are a promising child.

justwise: That is under consideration.

Fhemmmy:

I will be back later today to talk about this to the best of MY ability, but remember i am not the Visa officer.

movein: Please is it mandatory for me to include my CV to my Doc when applying for visa? Though I don't have any work experience yet. Thanks!

VCTROKOYE: please what documents do I need to get police clearance from police headquarter alagbon

nobleman01: hello, please, i need your help. i learnt that you have to write an english proficiency exam(toefl etc) before applying for canadian visa. Nigeria was exempted by the school that gave me admission so i dint bother writing it only to hear i need to submit the exam result with my documents a day to submission. i however submitted the application but have been disturbed since then and wondering if i should still go for the exam.

@ideolah, I submitted my application for a January resumption for 2013 on the 22nd of July 2012 and I didn't get a reply until November hence I had to push my admission to September 2013. So lets say 4months. (Was seneca college sha PGd). Ehen so anyway guys dis seneca people are yet to give me an acceptance letter but my portal keeps saying I have been accepted.

olawunmi_samuel: All this talk about sponsor must be your parents. So nobody in this forum has gotten a canadian visa using his uncle or aunt as a sponsor?

Etinosajay:

@olawumni_samuel

Persons have gotten d trv in the past, being sponsored by an extended family relative. Currently, can't say I know though. It just seems the VO's (oga at the top) tend to see malice in such move, dunno why. But God pass them, best bet is to package your application, and try to extensively prove relationship with that uncle, not with one, but in many ways, of course with documents to tell the story.
@kaycee43 gave me this idea. Meanwhile we await oga the top (Fhemmmy) to come give us his perspective on the matter, because if I say one thing now, my oga at the top might say another thing. That's all

olawunmi_samuel: Nice one etinosajay. the person is just a guardian and not really an uncle. When I apply, I'm thinking of saying he's my uncle. Skeptical about this whole thing, wanna enough facts and know how to arrange myself b4 my application starts.
