efizyhenchmen: Please, Nairalanders, how do I pay for my tuition fees considering the fact that the bank restrictions of #100 USD a month? Which other channel did you used in making your payment?
If you can't pay. I can pay for you but at a rate of N470-$1
I want to sponsor a sibling who just got admission in Canada. How does the student visa processing work?
Since I'll be the one paying all expenses, I guess I should be the one sending my account statements for visa application?
She doesn't have any money so there would be no need sending her own account statement. Please how does visa processing work with someone who is going to be sponsored 100% by a sibling? And is it better to use agent for student visas or apply directly? Thanks you all
Good day..
Tell your sibling to be the one to come here and gain the information and ask question.
All relevant information you need is on this thread. You just have to read from the page 1 till this point to gather the information you will need.
You are also free to ask questions and gurus will respond with answers.
Do not use an agent because they will eat you alive. They might give you false information as regards the application.
The procedure is simple.. Google schools(University or college), look for coursers related to her work experience or interests but you need to have had experience in such area. Before applying for admission, ensure you familiarise yourself with the schools refund policy.
After gaining admission, as the sponsor, you need to show commitment towards your intentions of sponsoring your sibling by paying a part of the fees or full fees. It is important your sibling includes her own bank statement(housing at least $10,000cad) otherwise, its a red flag. You can get relevant requirements for visa here by reading the thread.
Baawahala: Pls I intend to travel to Canada on a 6 months visa, how can I make my stay their permanent?.... I need info asap and I am a novice in this,I don't even have someone to ask physically...
larryrichie: Hello house, good evening to every one. my sister got a refusal today i need a help on how to order her GCMS NOTE, Please anyone we can help with where i can order it from..
Thanks in advance
Sorry to hear about her denial.
Who was the sponsor? Did she include her own bank statment? Was the full or part of the tuition fee paid?
You can use gcmsonline.com or other third party sites to order for the notes or i can apply for you.
I feel so relieved sharing my PPR as a silent reader of this thread. I applied to NBCC Moncton mainly because I have siblings in New Brunswick. I was a bit worried as I have ties to Canada which reduces my chances of success. However, I took the wisdom from this thread focusing on my ties to Nigeria in my SOP. I did upfront medicals at IOM in early July and submitted my application at the end of July with biometrics a week after that.
Then the wait began, four (4) months of daily checking of my IRCC account, reading posts on this thread, and constant refresh of my email. Other parts of the four months were spent worrying over how small the number of documents I submitted was compared to other PPR posts that I have seen on the thread. After the regular processing time passed, I sent two webforms and decided to request GCMS notes at the end of November.
I woke up this morning to the BVL and PPR mail.

My brother entered the PR pool in august 2021 , he however wants to use the study route to come to canada in May 2022. He has secured masters admission and is at the point of applying for his study visa. However he has 2 issues:
1. He put on his PR application that he has been working as a “Training administrator” at the family company. However, the course he’s going for is finance related and because of the fact that approval is dependent upon if the course relates to your career path or if it is something you studied, he filled in his sop that he is an investment analyst( he actually started branching out into this a few months back).
I would like to know if it’d be reasonable to fill it on his form that he’s currently an investment analyst without raising any eyebrows from the visa officer as to whether he’s lying about it.
2. He is considering taking down his PR profile because he’s scared that it’d affect his chances of getting approved because of home ties. I would like people who have been in this dilemma to advice please
I would like the house to please advice on the above. I would appreciate any takes and inputs!
@frankrobbn1 @justmellow @lekiboboe
This is my 2kobo on this though other gurus will offer more insight to this..
It is advisable to follow the same story you gave in an application into the next application. That being said, it is also likely the PR app wont be handled by the same VO that will handle the study app. Therefore anything is possible. Furthermore, it is already on record he applied for a PR and it will be known meaning even if he pulls the PR app down, it is already on record and all he said and attached is on record.
I will advise he maintains the same story as he said on the PR app but ventured into Investment analysis later on which is the basis why he is seeking a masters in the intended course.
I want to ask, does he have a masters already because i believe for a PR, a masters increases your points?
Olumidestella: Good evening my people Please I need help and advice on what to do. I submitted my application July 16 and did biometric on July 17. October 4 dey started to review my eligibility and requested for medicals thesame day, I eventually did my medicals and it was updated on November 5. It is 5 weeks now from updated medicals and have not seen an update.
Please what step can I take Dat is safe
Go to the previous page or two pages back and read from there. This question has been asked severally and answers given.
CraigXplore: Wow, thanks a lot Makano. So, there’s no issue with the mail being sent from a different email from the one used on applying. Really appreciate your responses. Thanks again
There is an issue as IRCC will not respond to it. it has to be from the email that receives correspondence from IRCC.
If your email was not used, either use the right email or use a webform(though the webform will request for the email attached to the application)
My medicals was updated to pass last week and my eligibility started this afternoon. Does this mean my chances are high of getting ppr.
If yes how long does it take on average between eligibility starting and getting ppr
September 27th and 2nd time applicant.
The answer to the bolded is NO. Rather, it means your application is at its final bus stop, therefore your chances for PPR is 50/50.
In simple terms, its time you prayed more.
For the second question, theres no specific timeline before a decision is made. There are people here and others i know that their apps have been on eligibility review since November.
nairagrounds: My program won't start until fall 2022, but I need answers to these crucial questions:
IRCC expects students to have at least CAN$10,000 CAN for their living expenses for a year. Is that the same funds that they want us to demonstrate when we get to the border with the Canada Border Services Agent? Or are we expected to have additional funds other than that?
Peradventure, we need to show some money at the border. Should it be just a statement of account, or should we carry cash with us?
IRCC has approved my application for a study permit, and I want to apply for SOWP and visit for my spouse and child, respectively. In the proof of fund for their applications, how much do they expect to have in their account? My spouse will jointly apply with my child. IRCC said CAN$4,000 for the first family member and CAN$3,000 for an additional accompanying family member. Is that all they need to show?
Your contribution will be very much appreciated. Thanks.
You might have to visit the SOWP thread for the bolded but my question is, have you been issued a STUDY PERMIT, ENROLLMENT LETTER AND A WORK PERMIT. These are also requirements for SOWP.
This isn't totally correct... There is no need for a daily message as regards uploading an upfront medical E-sheet...
Have it in mind that IRCC actually work with what the Clinics send to them and not necessarily the ones sent by applicants, but because of lack of patience from applicants, they tend to send their own copy of the Medical result which doesn't actually contain the actual and deatiled Medical Results of the applicant, just a summary...
This is not a delayed application situation where you have to keep reminding them of your delayed application via mails and webform..
Even if you don't submit the E-medical slip after your Medicals, your Medical will still be passed. And this is cos IRCC works with the Full detailed result the clinics send to them and not what the applicant actually upload...
Please I just did my medicals at qlife. How do I upload the emedical sheet pls?
Also… how would I know a document that was sent via webform has been added to my application ??
Google Canadian webform and keep sending the slip daily till your app changes to medical passed.. You are sending daily cos if you send once or twice it wont be updated on your app cos these guys are super busy with multiple apps.
Sometimes you get an acknowledgement but most times you don't but rest assured once sent, it has gotten to them
Teekay20: Good afternoon everyone, please I will like to apply next week but I don't know how I can send my sponsors account statement through the MBS. Please I will appreciate the response and secondly, please any idea how I can tackle a lump sum in the account. Please help me out, thank you.
zxxtx: Good afternoon everyone, who applied to SAIT recently? I’ve got just WAEC CERT and Scratch card. But I’m seeing upload transcripts, what transcripts? Does that apply to me ?
One of the many requirements of admission is a transcript EXCEPT YOU ARE APPLYING FOR A DIPLOMA.
Prumice: Hello please my canadian student visa application was rejected based on assets and finds in my account as they said..so please i want to reapply what are the necessary steps i should follow . Thanks
sorry for the delay.
Apply for your gcms note but quick one
Who was your sponsor? Were you able to explain your relationship with your sponsor Did you include your own bank statement? Did you pay your tuition or a portion of the tuition?
ManLikeB: For some days now the IRCC site has been misbehaving I think after the scheduled maintenance I want to know if anyone else noticed it or is it from my device
Same here..
Apps are being concluded upon especially on those that their apps have been on eligibility review for sometime.
amblessed2021: Hello guys, Please I just received an e-mail from the airline (KLM), informing me that my trip scheduled for next week will still be held. I'm attempting to contact their customer service to make assurance double sure. Please, what do you think?

I had submitted my application before coming across this wonderful platform. I made loads of mistakes, but GRACE swallowed them all. A Canadian consultant ones told me my chances are very slim. The wait was not an easy one, but we that God for the waiting, He knows it all.
I have learnt so much from this platform. Shout out to @Makano (only God can reward the time you invest in this family),Anon, among others, God bless, and my very own brother @FrankRuben (just too good at what he does; much respect Sir, God bless). Got so much encouragement from others PPR, but the ones with 6 weeks-2 months timeline were not funny to me at all, chai!
Lessons Learnt so far: -Keep praying, and keep trusting, even when you don’t fill like. HE IS JUST TOO FAITHFUL TO FAIL YOU!
-Don’t ever be discouraged simply because you have not traveled before, e nor follow! Had traveled countless times to the US, Europe and even Canada, yet, and we have seen 6 weeks approval of someone who has never traveled before.
-Don’t ever take any part of your application for granted; ask questions on this platform (there are really good and selfless guys here) and be ready to invest money if the need arises. I rather pay a consultant@ FrankRuben for example, than go through 3-4times refusal. Try convert visa fees, among other expenses, besides the emotional trauma. Just plan your application.
I will be back for more testimonies, by God’s Grace. This is just the Genesis of it all, for what God cannot do, is not in existence.
Olumidestella: Good evening my people and the gurus in the house Pls I av applied since July 2021, I av received my medical request in which av done it and has been updated since November 5, 2021. It is 4 weeks now and yet no update
My current status still reads SUMMITED since that Nov 5, please what is happening what can I do please?.
Nothing, you wait but has your eligibility review started?
aragbs4real05: Thanks so much. I need to Order my gcms to Know the VO specific concerns.
Also the reason of paying your tuition or deposit goes a long way to prove your genuine intentions of studying in canada as well as showing you are financially capable of paying your fees throughout the duration of your stay
