kelvin67:
it took my friend not me less dan a month.Am in lambton college.Have responded to ur pm

hope Lambton college is a good school...is there jobs in sarnia...how is their program....pls I need information about the school

BreadandBeans:
the most important thing is how stable the inflow and outflow of cash is on the account- I mean how often your sponsor credits the account and withdraws from it, then if the 4million is more than your tuition and living expenses for a year, you're good to go

its more than my first year tuition fees because I would have paid for my first semester tuition fees before the 4 million naira closing balance

BreadandBeans:
7.5m closing balance with good cash flow

nawa ooo....my sponsor can only afford 4 million... What do u advice

BreadandBeans:
I think @Bandeco is right with that point.. I submitted my dad's personal account and his company's account too and when I picked up my pp along with all my documents, there was traces of black biro on my dad's personal account, I think the v.o was trying to calculate the transactions on the account but the company's soa was too neat- it was as if nobody touched it.. so from my own perspective, I think submitting your sponsors personal soa is better than submitting only his company's soa, you can just use Company's soa as back up

pls bro how much do u have in ur dad statement of account

Bandeco:

U seem not to get the gist. ... Is the 3million naira ur personal fund? Is it in your personal account? Let's assume ur total study expenses is 3million naira for a year and ur sponsor decide to transfer this 3million into ur account to show some committment of sponsoring.. After transferring this said amount to ur account, her account balance will be N0. 00. If she shows a zero account balance statement of account to the VO, do you think the VO will issue you visa? Of course Not because, the VO isn't stupid to believe that someone will ground her account to zero balance just to train you in Canada.. Does it make economic sense.

Just know that if you submit a sponsors account with 3million as closing balance(which is likely below ur yearly expenses), there a very high chance that you will be denied base on insufficient funds.. That 3million naira is way too small

can I then try and tell her to increase it to 4 million naira to be on a safer side

bjstarpex:


To study in canada you must have a minimum of #1.46m per year apart from your Tuition fee "according to cic" and that is almost 50% of your sonsors balance, VO's are not fool to believe your sponsor can give you 50% of is account expecialy if not your parent or parent which other dependant apart from you.
So i advice you find a sponsors account with more funds even if th last name is different

but it is stated on their website that u must have a minimum balance of ur first year tuition fees + 10000 feeding and room plus 3000 transport fare

Bandeco:
It depends... I guess ur yearly school fees and living expenses will be above 3million... If you have paid school fees then you can convince the VO with 3million. Otherwise I will advise ur sponsor to try as much as she can to top up the account to let say 5 to 6million even by borrowing. The VOs find it hard to believe that someone will deplete all his/her savings to fund ur education in Canada .. Visa authorities work with logic.. They don't know you so they access ur base on logic..

In trying to build the account she should avoid lump sum... If you are going for September intake, you still got like 2months to fine-tune ur application...

Ps- my position is not static.. I know situation do change and people has offered testimony of successful application with such amount in SOA... But am saying this base on experience.. Overall prayer is key

I wish you good luck in your application..

I would have paid the first semester tuition fees and still have 3 million naira on my sponsor statement of account which is my mom. Do I still need to top it up with more fund or I'm go to go with that 3 million naira.....my next question is that do banks still give Form A fx for students to pay for tuition fees

Bandeco:

Can she document the source of funds?? Soa is not enough if it is accompanied by the source of the income eg employment letter, pay slip, employer's reference letter etc OR business registration documents and turn over.. These are important because the vo need to be sure that the sponsor has a steady flow of income even after sponsoring you, he/she will still get along with other financial obligations

yes. She has a company registered in her name..do u mean 3million is not sufficient fund to show the VO that she is capable to sponsor me after paying my tuition fees...

senatonato:

I leave this to the gurus to answer..hope the account has good cash flow. Am in kinda the same situation as u are. And i was told i can apply with 3m plus so long as i have paid semester fees. Gurus please help us out

yes it has a good cash inflow and outflow

senatonato:

Is the 3million closing balance after u have paid semester fees?

yes 3million is the closing balance after paying my first term tuition fees

bjstarpex:

what is your mon's source of income and how many dependants does she have apart from you

she's a business woman...she buy and sell....no dependent because all my siblings are through with school...they are already working and married...

bjstarpex:


--if you have something like that also in your account its ok
--if its your dad its posible but any external body with 3m in his accout can not stand to sponsor you to a foriengn uni considering is own family and expenses

its my mom that's sponsoring me...is the fund sufficient enough....a landed property inclusive

senatonato:

I heard form A still works..go to ur bank asap

pls bro is 3 million enough in my sponsor statement of account closing bank balance to apply for Canadian student visa for PGD studies

senatonato:

I heard form A still works..go to ur bank asap

thanks bro...God bless u....
