2011HajjWeber: Can one gets PCC at police headquarters if one NIN has issues of number not updating on POSSAP Portal. Running of out for this PCC oooooo
Go to STATE CID. but what is the issue with the NIN? If it's correction, go to NIN office and correct it .
You can't do the bare minimum and expect to get a favorable feedback.
Remember you are competing for limited study permit approvals with applicants from all over the world.
If the school didn't tell you explicitly not to pay more than 2k CAD, my advise is always that you endeavor to pay the full tuition fee for the first year.
It addresses the concern of the visa officer that, you may not have access to the funds from your sponsor's POF when needed.
It also goes a long way to demonstrate extra commitment.
All the best.
1. The school said the full tuition for one year can only be determined after course registration and course registration starts July. 2. The applicant is a self sponsor. All the funds is in his account and he has access to it at any given time.
Your opinion only works if it's a third party that is sponsoring it.
amnotapervert: You typically cannot pay the full one-year tuition upfront. Schools usually require you to pay a portion of the fees as an acceptance deposit...often around 15% of first year fee its sometimes part of the admission condition .
This is usually part of the conditions outlined in your admission offer. From my experience and from what others have shared, this is the standard approach.....but your school might be different
Yes, you can use the “all conditions met” letter to apply for your visa, as long as the school has confirmed it. That said, could you share what conditions were included in the offer letter you received in February?
They were just two conditions. 1. Send an official transcript. 2. Pay 2000 CAD deposit fee
amnotapervert: In most cases, to have a stronger application, it’s advisable to show more funds than the minimum required.
1. Showing more funds and the funds stays in your account (you only pay deposit fee)
2. Paying one year fee.
Which of the above is more advisable?
My school said as it stands, the can't tell how I would need to pay for one year tuition as my course is paid per-credit and not flat rate. And to know how much I need to pay I have to register my course and registration starts July.
Secondly my school gave me two letters. 1. Conditional offer letter which was issued in February.
2. All Conditions Met Letter which was issued last month.
When I requested for LOA, my admission advisor said I can use the second letter issued to apply for visa.
amnotapervert: One size does not fit all, so you have to find what works best for you.
However, one thing I always emphasize is that it’s often better to choose a program in a province where a Master’s degree can directly qualify you for a PNP stream....its just giving yourself a better advantage....
In some cases, the specific course doesn’t matter as long as it’s a Master’s degree. The only downside is how frequently draws are conducted.
Let me explain.
On March 18, Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP) invited Master’s and PhD graduates for the first time since 2024. Imagine someone who has been waiting that long, relying on this as their only pathway.....it can be very stressful. https://www.ontario.ca/page/2026-ontario-immigrant-nominee-program-updates#section-0so do not put all your eggs in one basket
1. Ontario Master’s Graduate Stream
You do not need a job offer or work experience to qualify. However, you must have studied in Ontario.
This is usually the easiest and most popular option. Requirements are relatively straightforward: CLB 7 and Proof of residency in Ontario
A lot of people benefit from this stream.....but its no frequent draws
2. British Columbia
In British Columbia, no job offer is required after graduation but it is limited to specific fields:
Natural sciences, Applied sciences and Health sciences. If your Master’s is not in one of these areas, you will not qualify
Most other provinces have graduate streams, but they typically require: A job offer, or Work experience, or Employer support.... I remember in 2024 when people where living ontario to Saskatchewan for PR purpose watch her video from 0.45 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqIfA1p1Zkw
The advantage is that they tend to have more frequent draws compared to Ontario and British Columbia.
Keep in mind that everything is subject to change. For example, British Columbia’s stream was not field-specific before 2023/2024, but it was later updated to focus on Natural Sciences, Applied Sciences, and Health Sciences... now you need a one year work experience in the field you went to school with in BC if its not among the mentioned one........
amnotapervert: Before coming to Canada If your purpose is to stay in Canada after schooling and your Post graduate work permit
I want you to use the CRS calculator to determine your exact points without studying or working in Canada.
Then, do another calculation assuming you study and work in Canada for 3 years.
If, after comparing both results, you still don’t reach 500 points for CEC, you should think twice and consider focusing on PNP, French, or category-based draws.
FYI Max your IELTS score when testing or you know what you can get when you write English exam
I reside in Sweden and I want to pay tuition fee and provide a sponsorship bank statement for my brother in Nigeria to study a Graduate Certificate program in Canada.
Please, I want to know if it’s possible. Must a sponsor reside in Nigeria.
As for PR, it is not guaranteed.......but nothing in life is guaranteed except death. So you have to plan wisely.
Think carefully about all your options. Check whether you currently qualify for any PR category-based draws.
If you come to Canada to study and later work, and you can get up to 500 CRS points, which may qualify you for a CEC draw after graduation if not you need to rethink about it.
However, with current trends, scores may remain around that range for a long time, especially if you are not in an in-demand field.
The school itself is solid ranked among the top 30 universities in Canada.....and still one of the most affordable options.
When it comes to jobs, it depends on your skills. The Canadian job market is very competitive, but you can find a job if you have the right skills and are persistent. Just be prepared.........it may take time.
And again, PR is not guaranteed. Age is not on your side you will school and work for 3 years before you start looking at PR options, except you focus on category-based draws or a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) if you are coming to canada
You are bent on discouraging people from coming to Canada. I saw your post where you told a member to book the next flight to MM1.

How can one get 500 CRS points? Which job(s) or skill(s) is in-demand right now in Canada?
amnotapervert: I wish you all the best, but what most people don’t tell you is that they don’t do this at the POE. They apply after they are already in the country. It’s called dual intent, and it is legal.
You can enter Canada on a visitor visa and later apply for a study permit from inside Canada but not at the POE.
That same day, you might encounter a strict border officer who takes your declaration very seriously . Your actions must match your original purpose of entry, which is a visitor visa.
Only U.S. citizens or permanent residents ( green card Holders), Residents of Greenland or Saint-Pierre and Miquelon can do that at the POE
Jidesam01: Hi everyone, I just got admitted to a university in Ontario. I have my school fees of 24k Plus, but that’s all I have. Now I want to run POF for my living expenses which is 23k cad. They are ready to give me certificate of investment that matured over 180 days and was deposited into my bank account as a lump sum . My issue is will I have to prove to ircc where I got the money I invested?
I’ll delete this soon.
