Hi Ketima, so regarding the lump sum, I used my dads savings account for pof and I submitted 6 months statement. The start of the statement had a lump sum cause he sold shares but the balance was still more than what I needed, that’s why I wasn’t concerned. Please what can I do when reapplying? Should I ask him to send the money to my own account instead? Please I need your guidance

In any lump sum, you need to attach source of such funds like evidence of sale of shares, receipts, invoice etc.

Ketima:
My Boss I loyal.

Seriously the baffle me. Is still here that they will come to seek for help to remedy it.

Remedy kee.. No remedy o.
Its not like chargebacks you can remedy. Once you don submit am, it is over.

Ketima:
You need POF from someone you don't even know? Do you know how many people that will get same POF that will be given to you?

Please let's all be careful with all this. I know we all have our dreams of relocating for studies and POF is the most challenging.

But please let's not use our own hands and sign our 5year ban attendance sheets.

Goodluck

Bro, you replied. Me, I saw that and ignored.

Whem it cast, they will come to tell us the story.

I just got my gcsmnotes and it's like there is an issue on proof of relationship with my uncle . Is it advisable to add an additional document like birth certificate to proof my relationship with my uncle now that my application is still in progress

Yes.. Add those as well

Ekulu77:
Hello
Good morning
I just received my gcsmnotes , please I need help interpreting it
Also ,in the the pre assement note : it's says insufficient proof of relationship for third party funds .
My application is handled by EAIMEL

Your app is at it last bus stop and tilting slightly towards a denial if you do not explain the vo's comment immediately.

Try to attach an affidavit of sponsorship with you uncle passionately explaining why he wants to sponsor you, pictures your self, him and maybe your family, Letter explanation passionately explaining why your uncle chose to be your sponsor (go further to prove that he is willing to cover your expences throughout the duration of your stay in canada)

Hello everyone

Please has anyone applied for masters in mass communication?

If yes please which school can i apply for? And what are the chances of getting visa?

Please this is urgent. I will appreciate to hear a quick response.
Thanks

Google can help you get this info.

Your chances of visa approval isnt just about the school. You need to prove your genuineness towards coming ti canada to study, financial backing, essence of the program to you, family and home of residence etc.

ifechidi:
Hi fam, Please I need your assistance. I applied for study visa since 14th May 2021, biometrics 21st May, did my upfront medicals 26th August. Passed my medicals 8th September. There has been no update on my application since then. I have written to ircc Kenya and their response was that they were still processing my application. I applied for Gcms notes through Ircc on the 29th of September , I didn't get any response till date. I applied again for Gcms notes through CBSA, the 5 weeks waiting time is passed and no response. Can anyone advice me on what to do? I already deferred my admission from September to January with hope I'll hear from ircc, but as it stands I may have to defer again to May 2022 intake. Please help a sister.

The only solution I have for you is to keep disturbing them via email 3times daily.

Has your eligibility review started. So none of the notes applied has been released to you till date?

SwayB:
IRCC how far na? Applied since 27th of August and Eligibility has not even started. My application has been the same since i completed my biometrics. No ghost update or something to even have hope with. The wait is so tiring.

Keep disturbing them with mails 3times daily

Dohwho:
Please can you expatiate?
My wife applied as a student and she ticked the box that I’ll be going with her However I’ve not applied yet does it mean I’m misleading the VO

Please go back to the previous page, i was corrected on that by @SOPWriter

I do not think you are on the wrong but did she say on her sop you are accompanying her?

Other gurus should please advice if i am wrong

matthew080:
Pls who know any school with around 500cad first payment tuition fee,

The 1500cad I heard from makano is scary pls

When seeking admission to schools, ensure you familiarize yourself with the schools refund policies.

Some schools do not refund while others do.

Conestoga College charges 1500cad as tuition deposit and it is refundable with $200cad admin fee deduction.

Jxool:
Good day everyone

Please after ircc receive your passport you send how long does it take to finalize stamping the visa and send it back to vfs, and how will you know they have stamped your visa?

Thanks

It takes a week or two max.

VFS will be updating you once it has gotten to them, when it has been sent for stamping, when its being returned to VFS and when it being sent back to you.

makano:
Okay..

You cant obviously know the visa Officer in person , but you can know a Visa Officer handling your application by their code name though GCMS notes..

Remember some months back there was a popular Visa officer we were discussing here that only specializes in refusing applications(cant remember the code name).. So you can actually know the Visa Officer by their code names...

Peace

Yea.. I recall.. I appreciate

SOPWriter:
That applicant's experience was not orchestrated by the student's IMM 5645E or IMM 5406E. Rather, the VO was referring to his SOP/LOE. The subject must have affirmed his family's presence in Nigeria for the duration of his program. His family is his tie to Nigeria! You cannot indicate that you have a Visa Dependent when there's none. The Family Information Form, on the other hand, has to include your family details, even if they won't accompany you. Therefore, the applicant in question is acquitted of misinformation. He filled his forms correctly!

Now, should we stop using our families as ties? The answer is a CAPITAL NO! Instead, you should give an account, in your Spousal Open Work Permit LOI/SOP, for the change of plan. @LuckyMama, ask the poster to give genuine grounds for the recent development. She should not just apply for SOWP because she's qualified! She needs to justify her application!

Ook.. Thanks

Well understood.

makano:
The bolded is not totally correct..

There is actually a way an applicant can know the Primary and secondary office handling his or her application..

And that is through GCMS notes...

And sometimes when you send a general message to IRCC , in their response they will state that your message has been re-directed to the office handling your application and the office will be copied... But this is rare though..

But GCMS notes will def let you knw the office handling your application, so please correct that..

An applicant can know the office handling his or her aplication through GCMS notes..

Peace

No doubt but the applicant's question was how will he know the Visa Officer not the visa office handling his application. That was what prompted my bolded reply.

How do I go about, raise a webform or what?



quote author=Anon123 post=108543896]




There is no way you can know that.

You are not meant to know that.

You can only know the visa office handling your app either Lagos, kenya, London or China.

Send a mail or webform.

The office that responds to either of the two is the office handling your application.

You said they requested for the brain surgery report. Therefore the email used to communicate with you is the office that is handling your application. Its always starts with lagos or Nairobi or LDN..

Hello Nairalanders,
Please, am a bite worried over my medical. I did upfront medical on the 19 the of November,2021, it was returned on the 24th of same month demanding for medical reports on the brain surgery I did earlier this year,which was gotten and re-submitted on the 4th of December and since then, the medical has not been updated on my GCkey account. Please, what should I do?

Thank you!

I will advice you construct a formal letter notifying the handling VO that your medicals have not been passed. You can go further to explain the result of the brain surgery and inform them you have recovered ever since with no complications afterwards.

Luckymama:
Hi guys
So I was going through the SOWP timeline thread and the living in canada thread- for those of us that have families and want to use them as hometies and later apply for them. It appears sometimes this can backfire. Someone posted that his application for his family was declined. The GCMS notes stated that he lied on his student visa application that he was not travelling with his family, only for him to later apply for his family. So it may not be a sure-fire approach to use immediate family as home ties.

Not saying in absolute terms o - just wanted to put it out there as something to keep in mind and weigh the risks.

cc GlamMrsO

When you fill your immm forms, its expected you fill the correct information. If you tick you are going with your family, its expected you are to to apply with them but if you dont, you are obviously going to be denied because you are trying to mislead the vo

matthew080:
Hello

All information you may. Need are all here

softalliance:
Hey guys ,
Please I will like to know if there are colleges in Canada, that does not mandate tuition fees before Visa processing, I know of Brandon University. But I want to apply for advanced diploma.
@anon123

You might have to reach out to different schools admission office but Conestoga college requires $1500cad to secure your seat for your program but it is refundable.

Holarjoseph:
Please Fellas help me�

How can I get a closer date for my medical at Qlife hospital the date given to me by Qlife is Jan 7th and to me it's quite risky because the medical request will expire on Jan 10th

Abeg what can I do?

Go with your medical request letter and plead to be given a closer date.

Try IOM as well

Immacharles:
Good day all...


Pls I would like you all to advice and assist me on the best program to do.


My Bsc is in Chemical Engineering
I have work experience but not in chemical engineering, more of customer service. I’m currently training to better my experience in python, data analysis(though no work experience yet) I’m looking for fully funded scholarships to apply to in Canada but I don’t know the course I should go for. Do I do masters in chemical engineering or should I go for data analysis.
Please, I need your advice on how to go about getting my Msc admission, the school options and possible funding.

Thank you very much.

If you dont have experience in chemistry, try to either work on making that experience available or go for the course you have work experience background on. Admission isnt a major issue but come visa time, the visa officer needs evidence of employment like employment letter, ID card etc.


So I recommend focusing on a course you have experience and flair in.

amila20042001:
nawa o. i'm abt to apply for masters program in chemistry, university of Alberta, i have bsc chemistry 2.1. more than 10years academic gap. I have work experience but not chemistry related. any advice pls?

Even if you apply and get admitted, the visa officer during visa stage will be thorough because you have to show evidence of current employment.

mrprolifik:
Not all schools.
Algonquin college and Durham college doesnt accept a study gap of more than 5years from a Nigerian international student.

Really... i didnt know this..

Thanks for the update.

PATLIVCOSMETICS:
Does it mean one must have relevant work experience to be admitted into masters program?

One of the major requirements for an admission is your CV. So, yes... it is vital to tilt the admission decision your side

TiminimiNas:
Good morning all...

I am new on this thread, I've been following other travel threads though.

Pls I would like gurus in the house to advice me on the best program to do.


My Bsc is in Biochemistry
I have an MBA
I have been doing a few agricultural work since last year (self employed) and i would like to do a course related to food processing, agriculture and value chain management so that afterwards i can proceed to a PhD.

Since my Masters is a professional degree i cant do a PhD with it.
I need your advice on how to go about getting this Msc admission, the school options and possible funding.

Thank you very much.

Your area of interest is not related to biochemistry therefore I dont think you should pursue a masters in biochemisty. In addition, you do not have a work experience in biochemistry which will make your visa application more difficult.

I will recommend you consider supply chain or Quality assurance courses PGD level as its related to your area of interest as long as you have evidence to backup the work experience.

Universities will not admit you into masters in biochemistry as you do not possess a work experience in that field.

At the visa stage, do not include or mention you have a masters already.
