Hello everyone, Please can anyone who has applied for study permit and was successful or almost successful kindly outline all required documents. I am trying to do the application on my own. Thank you in advance

Thank you for this response. I feel better knowing that I did it right. It's day 21, I hope it comes soon

I did apply the same way without paying a dime. I only got the automated response immediately I submitted the request and I thought I won't be attended to but surprising my GCMS notes came in 2 to 3 weeks time. Don't worry, your GCMS note will arrive soon.

Hi, please how did you order the GCMS notes and how long did it take to get a response. I order directly under the privacy act and did not pay anything. I am yet to get a response and its 21 days already

I helped someone order GCMS notes in december after their agent told them the visa was still in process since January 2024. However, the notes revealed that a fake bank statement was used to his application, and he had been banned since July 2024. This person then unknownly applied for a USA visa in october , and the visa officer asked what happened to his Canada application. He responded that it was still under process by canada embassy . The officer then said, 'Sorry, we cannot issue you a visa.

Hi, I also did the same as you. I have been waiting for a response for 2 weeks. Nothing yet, just the first email sent when I submitted the request. I am beginning to feel that I did not do it right. Have you seen any one who applied under the privacy act, paid nothing and got a response?

What's the best site to get GCMS notes from, I requested it directly from the ircc website but I'm not sure if I did it correctly. I heard you are supposed to pay but I was not requested to pay when I applied for the refusal note. I got this email after applying though.

Okay, thanks

This you can either do via requesting GCMS notes which takes about 30days response time, could be less or more. But in my case, my uncle who lives in Ottawa went through contacting his Member of parliarment (MP). Seems MP has direct phone communication with IRCC to get similar result we get from GCMS notes.

Please can you give more details on how you contacted IRCC for the refusal explanation. Was it by email or what ?. I really want to know why I was refused and correct it.

I applied for my student permit 11/12/2024 with accompanying mum 11/12/2024. Biometric was completed 13/12/20024. Myself (Algonquin Architecture Diploma), my mum, my close friend ( Algonquin Diploma Computer programming) we went high school togther and graduated June 2024 and one of my distance relative( she applied for PG Algonquin Paralegal).

January 6th, My application and my mum application was withdrawn. While my firend and disctance related where approved same date.

Reason for withdrawal was invalid PAL. I had mistakely uploaded my friends PAL. This i noticed after I got the withdrawal.

My refusal Letter

This letter refers to your application to study in Canada as a temporary resident.
On January 22, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) established an
intake cap on most study permit applications. As a result, new study permit applications
submitted to IRCC must include a provincial or territorial attestation letter (PAL/TAL) from the
intended province or territory of study (or for applicants destined to Quebec, an attestation of
issuance of a Quebec Acceptance Certificate that confirms the student has a place in Quebec’s
share of distributed study permit applications), unless the criteria for an exception is met.
Your application did not include a valid PAL/TAL from the province or territory where you plan to
study and, based on the information provided in your application, you do not meet the criteria for
an exception. Therefore, in accordance with the Ministerial Instructions with respect to the
processing of certain applications for a study permit, your application cannot be accepted for
processing. Your processing fees will be refunded. Refunds may take between 6 to 8 weeks to
be issued.
Should you choose to re-apply, please submit a new application including all required
documents and pay all applicable fees. Please ensure you provide a valid PAL/TAL or provide
evidence that you meet an exception as part of your submission. Visit: Study permits: Provincial
attestation letters - Canada.ca for examples of evidence.

Hi xxxxx,



I spoke with IRCC this morning regarding xxxxx She noted that the officer stated that the letter provided was not valid, and that the applicant was not actually eligible to apply. Unfortunately, our time on the call ran out, so I have put in a request for more clarity on this one. Once I have more information, I will get back to you.



Thank you,

Next follow up

to me

Hi xxxx,



I spoke with IRCC again re: xxxx’ application, and they noted that the letter they received did no have his name on it. It was someone else’s name. They are assuming the wrong letter was uploaded with the application. This is what made the letter invalid. This can not be a re-consideration, and needs to be a new application with the correct letter.



Unless you have proof that the letter which was uploaded with the original application, a new application will need to be submitted.



Thank you,

Did anybody use their phones for the interviews. I am planning on using my phone. Advice please. Is it advicable

iSleek:
The location in the advert was Lagos. I dunno how it works but if I had a choice, I'd choose Abj

Ok
I will choose Abj too. They have office in Abuja

Olusteve12:
what day did you do your first interview? Was it on Friday , I min Nov 27?

1st. Dec

iSleek:
The question came in passing. We didn't dwell on it. It went something like this:

Partner : I believe you've gone through our website & familiarised yourself with a thing or two in Risk Advisory, yes?
Me : Yes ma
Partner : Good. Now tell me what you know about the sub-departments in the unit & which you'd like to work in
Me : blah blah blah & I'd like to be a part of the Cyber & Strategic Risk department
Partner : What do you know about cyber risk?

After my response to this last question, we moved on to other things unrelated to Risk Advisory.

Okay thanks
You may not know or just in case you know,
Is the job location strictly in Lagos or do they post to their abuja office . Please who can remember the location in the advert

iSleek:
Cyber & Strategic Risk (this was a spontaneous choice, I wasn't expecting the question from the Partner )

I was asked this question during my first interview and just like you i was not expecting it and chose cyber risk. By God's grace, if i get called for partner interview, i don't know if i can select another unit. Was your partner interview questions based on cyber risk

iSleek:
I was interviewed yesterday. Risk Advisory unit.

Questions were mostly basic: tell us about yourself, citing things not already captured in your CV; tell us about an impact you have made in your local community, job or anywhere you've found yourself in the past; why would you like to work with us? ; why do you want to work in this service area especially given that you don't have related experience? (depending on your course of study & previous experience); what do you consider your weaknesses & strengths?

Was the interview virtual?

For those of us that experienced the error in submission. I sent a message to dragnet and they just sent me this today
