Panelbeater:
I already sent my documents to Bochum ,while my school sent my transcript directly to them via DHL as well, yet no response from them
Is anyone experiencing this?

Gentlelord:

much appreciated, I would recheck those schools I selected if their application is direct or strictly uniassist

Yungsholly04:
I haven't seen anyone going to Bochum on this thread in a long while does it mean fam here are not applying to this city (Ruhr University) especially. Please let's connect if you are going to any North Rhine Westphalia state. I will be here

MaroCruz:

PS: Read past posts on the thread, don't end up shortchanging yourself because you don't want to search for information. Dates are running out.

good evening all i must say you guys are doing a good job. i came into this forum as a newbie i think sometime in january.i already had my admission from a canadian university already for masters in environmental engineering and have a bsc in chemical engineering from a nija uni(2014). i asked the first question here on how to go about my deposit payment to my school but unfortunately it wasnt answered but i just read on the thread and googled some questions too and was able to make the deposit of 2kcad not even the full tuition payment.. ok to cut the long story short, this post is for dose discouraged and it may serve as encouragement to them not to relent..i applied for my trv on 7th of feb(paper route) for the first time i do not have any travel history before, i got an invite for medicals 1st march and got my trv on 9th march(yesterday)..my dear it was really a surprise to me coz it was after i applied i even got to start reading and following up more on the thread i got scared at some point when i even saw some documents that was mentioned here like sop, letter of previous employment place ,sponsor birth certificate, sponsor passport biodata page, siblings birth cerificate and parents too, police report too etc. men all this things been no dey my application i said to my sef i dun f up o.. The only things i submitted was my trv forms, sponsor letter, sponsor account statement(personal and company) , sponsor cac documents, my nysc discharge, waec certificate, degree certificate, diploma in telecoms certificate,my personal account with just 170k closing balance, ielts, identification letter, my bsc school transcript, evidence of paid 2kcad, admission letter, accomodation offer letter from school and above all THE G FACTOR(GOD). this are just what i used in applying for the first time and getting it.. i think a simple and genuine application makes the job easy for the vo. i applaud these guys frank, iyjuwa, chuks and many others i cant remember their names i dont reply nor comment though but i follow your posts and comments and you give really good advices and una dey try e no easy to dey give free advice abeg so GOD bless you all and reward you all ur heart desires .. for those expecting it will be your turn soon..cheers yall and all the best to you all.

xzile:
Thanks everyone who contributed to my questions. I truly appreciate.
Since the tax clearance is impossible to get now, i think i will make do with SOA, CAC documents, affidavit and the letter of sponsorship and keep my fingers crossed.
I have come to understand that trv is possible even with living expenses in sponsor account. I think his letter is convincing enough.

OriEyeLe:

1. Both(online and paper are good) but if you have more documents to submit I will advise you use paper route as there is no limit to the amount of document to submit(unlike online whose maximum is around 4mb/segment). Another advantage of the paper route is you get to do your biometric same day unlike online when you will have to wait for invitation from cic to go for it at VFS. Also online is expensive due to exchange rate(though it is stress free as you can do everything in the comfort of your home as long as you have a scanner and internet).
2. Your uncle sponsoring you isn't a problem but as a third party(not your parents or sibling) the he will have to show commitment by paying the said amount he wants to spend on you into your account or better still pay for your tuition fee. Just his statement of account and letter of support wont be enough. Yes you need a letter from him(letter of support fully stating how much he is giving you and his reasons)
3. VFS office( I think it is located at Silverberg galleria ).
4. Yes the funding is an advantage as it helps saves cost. How much is your total tuition? subtract the $4000 from your tuition fee and living expenses( at least $10,000) to know the balance you have to source for from your sponsor
5. No issue to that as long as you submit copies of the affidavit and newspaper publication with your application
6. Medical is done by cic approved clinics/hospital and the fee is not included in your application fee. You should check cic site to know the clinics around your location(Abuja) then contact them to know the cost. You can do a medical before you submit your application then submit the medical form with your application and the clinic will send the result directly to cic or better still you apply without doing any medical then wait for cic to send you medical mail before going for it(it saves cost).
