GOOD DAY TO ALL

DEAR GURUS IN THE HOUSE

i have come here naked to seek for your help , please assist me with all the advise you can, i am in need of your experience and expertise , i am about to regret that i should have given my application to an agent , but this group has motivated me that i can do it myself
please do not forsake me

attached is my refusal note as a first time applicant and i have many question to ask to pass my next application


BRIEF BACKGROUND
i am 35 years ,i have HND in microbiology upper credit in 2010 and since then i have been working in a telecom company as a digital platform analyst, i have over 7 years working experience as a DATA ANALYST, during the pandemic work stop so i decided go for my masters unfortunately canada does not give masters to HND so i got admission for advanced BIOTECNOLOGY at centennial college,

FUNDS
I have a fixed deposit of 15 million naira from my inheritance untouched so i decide to use it for my self sponsor for the program and added my hubby and BIL as co-sponsor

here is my question
EDUCATION /CAREER ADVANCEMENT
1.is the advanced Biotechnology course offered not related as career advancement, if yes should i change my course to something related to DATA ANALYST
2.will my school refund my deposit fee and allow me change course. or apply in another school afresh
3,will it not raise another red flag by the visa officer

FUND

1 should i pay upfront for my 1st year tuition fee in my next application
2- what should i do with the funds in my fixed deposit to show that i can fund this myself, do i convert to savings or it doesn't matter
3, do i need to still add my hubby and brother inlaw as co-sponsor

please try say coitized me nicely as am already in a bad mood

thank you for your continuous support

@ everygurus

You should have applied for a program related to your work experience. The VO pointed out that you are unemployed cos you choose a program you have no experience in. Therefore reapplying, you need to change to a program in PGD related to DATA ANALYSIS.

You should have been conversant with your schools refund policy before paying the tuition deposit. so nobody here knows. Conestoga refunds tuition deposits if visa is denied.

@ Anon123 thank you for helping out.
I have done everything, I have sent to ircc webform but I can't find Nairobi webform site.
They sent me an email this morning that my application is under active review, and i remembered that I left my statement of account out upon submission in March, so I want to send it.
Pls help with the Nairobi webform site sir.

There is no webform specifically for Nairobi. The way webform works is, you can choose any office London, lagos, Nairobi , China etc. Doesnt really matter as long as you include your application number and your UCI number. It will be sent to the office handling your app. But am sure when choosing office, Nairobi should be there

Iffylove:
Another question please
At the down page of all the forms where there is space for signature and date...
Do I have to write my names with the date or leave both spaces blank?
Thank you.

ONE OF THE FORMS ALLOWS YOU TO TYPE ON IT(SECTION FOR SIGNATURE), WRITE YOUR FULL NAME AS IT APPEARS ON YOUR PASSPORT. THE OTHER FORM THATS NOT EDICT-ABLE ON THE SIGNATURE SECTION, LEAVE BLANK AND VALIDATE BEFORE SAVING

AbionaT:
Please Guru in the house, I have been trying to send my statement of account to Nairobi through webform, it seems I'm not doing it right.
Please how can I do it.

Have you merged the entire page of the statements as one pdf doc, if yes, have you reduced to the size acceptable on the webform platform-2MB or so.. then you should be able to upload it.

username12:
Thanks for your response boss.
Is PGC same as graduate certificate?

YES

Amenmay:
Please ooo what’s the difference between PGD and Diploma?

Cant really differentiate but i know diploma there is the same as the normal diploma here.. dont consider it if you have a degree already

Amenmay:
I have had that you supposed to submit your personal account statement what if your transaction and closing balance is not up to 200k does it make any sense submitting it??

If you can have part or all your living expense in your account.. its okay

Iffylove:
PLEASEEEEEEE HEEEEELPPPPPPP

Have you uploaded and it didnt work... if yes, try to compress the size and try again.

otherwise you will need to resize the photo

Hello everyone!

For one's sponsor (parent) whom is into palm oil, poultry farming, piggery and cocoa farming business but no CAC documents because none is registered.(just normal buying and selling...)

Is it advisable to just register it now while preparing to submit my application in sept for Jan 2022 intake?(I don't know if the date of reg. might be somehow to the VO)

Or can we just provide receipt of selling to customers, for prove of the business(es).
These businesses are just to show source of funds from my sponsor while studying.

Is many receipts of different years/month/season prove my sponsor is into these businesses?

Thanks!
@Lekkiboboe
@Frank Robbn

Submitting the receipts can serve as both evidence its registered and also source of funds. Please ensure you are not using your parents business account for the sponsorship and also include your our bank statement otherwise you will be denied for financial reasons..

Use the most back dated receipt maybe 1990 or so

Anyanwu2003:
Gurus in the house please I just got my RSA and reference letter from Stanbic, please how do I do a web form to upload it to IRCC Kenya?... thanks

Just google webform.. the process is very easy

buckyfof:
I just got refused guys, and I’m proud to put it out here so others can learn
I submitted through an agent but it was later I found out about nairaland and I knew I was suppose to do it on my own. I was rejected based on just purpose of visit as i knew my chances were low when I came to nairaland to find out that going for a 2nd degree and getting a decision has a very slim chance. I’m I happy I learnt that too.
I submitted the account of my uncle as we bear the same surname and it had an inflow and outflow of almost 300m in 4 months alone and a sitting balance of 20m. Most of you are also aware that I just lost my dad and my uncle has been stepping up for me for a lot of things
My uncle also owns the company where I work part time and I also submitted the cac, employment letters and bank statement of the company of almost 250m in inflows and outflow.
I can tell that the course was the major problem, as I wrote my SOP myself with the agent making one or two corrections

Please guys, I had a 2:1 in accounting with a CGPA of 3.63 in 2018. Which university can the gurus recommend to go for masters. And which course will best fit my bsc. I will try and re apply again but I need the assistance of
Lekkiboboe
Frank Robbn
Just mellow and all the amiable members

Do I need IELTS for masters or gre. Or just my bsc and English proficiency letter is enough??

How do I get the complete gcms note to check all the information filled by my agent and how do I order for it. Thank you guys
You guys are wonderful and to those waiting for PPR. May Almighty God grant it to you

HOW ON EARTH CAN AN AGENT RECOMMEND ANOTHER DEGREE FOR A CLIENT THAT ALREADY HAS A DEGREE.. THIS IS THE MOST BASIC MISTAKE ANYBODY COULD MAKE

Fear these people.

You were denied based on the fact you chose to do another degree.. if you are reapplying, do not use that agent .. Pursue a pgd or masters.. google can solve that for you.

FundRaiserNg:
Thanks Anon123.

I have been surfing through Conestoga website but finding it difficult locating their PGD courses. I see alot of undergraduate and master courses.

Please if you share a link to their pgd courses i will be most grateful. Thanks all.

No.. Go to all programs, you will see it.

CaddyT:
Hello everyone. I uploaded the normal bank statement I hope this won't be a problem for me

If your bank dont offer the MBS certificate, then you can upload the bank statement. But add an explanation to it

FundRaiserNg:
Hello house.

I graduated with 2.2,

currently 40yrs.

With 10 years study gap.

Should I go for a PGD or master program?

Please suggest any school i can apply to.

Meeting the requirements for a masters with your 2.2 might be futile. Therefore your best bet is a PGD in a program related to your work experience.

You can start with Conestoga college etc.. Google can help more on that

Is Canada processing visitor visa right now? They only want ppl that have important reasons to visit their country.

Hazardd:

No

Good day all.. Please anyone with links to where one can get police certificate done in Abia state. Thanks in anticipation

EmeeNaka:
But this time that IRCC claimed to be processing Application within 7weeks, would GCMS note not be advisable to be applied after 7weeks?

Also, I want to ask if it's important to attach Birth Certificate or National ID card of family members in support of the IMM form for Family Information?

FOR THE BOLDED... YES

Nothing is certain as far as IRCC IS CONCERNED.

FOR THOSE APPLYING FOR GCMS NOTE, PLEASE ENSURE YOUR APPLICATION HAS EXCEEDED THE STANDARD PROCESSING TIME OR IS 3-5MONTHS OLD BEFORE YOU APPLY. YOU CANT BE THINKING OF APPLYING FOR A GCMS NOTE IF YOUR APP IS STILL A MONTH OR 2 MONTHS OLD.. PATIENCE GUYS..

owee:
Does anyone have the VFS consent forms? Please share link to download or attach here.

does VFS have a consent form?

LadyBlaq:
Congrats to people who got a positive feedback on their applications and huge E hug to those whose application decision have been delayed...

Please house, what page(s) of the GCM notes contains the most important assessment? The pages are numerous and I can't understand certain things in there.

Thank you.

You are welcome

Hello gurus
I am asking for a friend of mine

She is 35 and finished masters in 2016 in Human Psycology which is same as her Bsc ever since then she hasn’t worked , she is married with 3 kids. Her husband has a bsc with a 2.2 and has been working ever since graduation, bsc related to his current job

My question is
Would you suggest she applies for a PHD since she has a masters or her husband applies for PGD since he graduated with a 2.2

They don’t have so much funds, currently have 9million available

Her last child is less than 1 year

Please I would appreciate your response

Both should agree on who goes first.

9m is not enough

ireneayeni:
Good morning everyone, I have been seeing a lot here and I do not know if I should be worried. I just applied last week and I have only gotten a letter to go do biometrics, How long will it take for me to get a request to use the NSE route and like how long will the entire process take. A response from gurus in the house will be really appreciated. Thank you

NSE doesnt come to everybody. But if you wish to have your app processed under NSE, get your ielts result (at least 6.0 per band) and MBS(mybankstatement certificate).

Mind you no guarantees on visa approval if you provide those docs and no guarantees if you process via normal route.

Application duration changes so close eye and put 4-5months in mind. Might be more also

Iffylove:
Thanks
please how long does the medicals take at QLife.. Does it exceed 2hours?

As in to do te medicals? If yes, just come early if u want to leave early. But the process is not long so 2hours is enough

Psamuelh:
I don't have an undergraduate degree

How old are you ?

OpeLadi:
Hello...
Gurus in the house pls I need your opinion..
I just got admission in BVC Canada to study a two years course but I just want to use that to enter Canada, will apply for PR later on. I am married with 2 kids. So someone advised that I apply for visa alone so that it can be granted easily then maybe after 6 months, my husband and 2 kids will apply.. Prove of found and all is available. Pls will this method work?

You can't get a PR if you dont have a educational certificate which was the reason you entered with a study visa. Please if you are going with a study visa, ensure you obey the rule of the visa which is graduate from a school there.

Your hubby and kids can come immediately you get an approval, you mustnt necessarily wait for 6months . at least a month after entering Canada is okay

Psamuelh:
Good evening all. Please I'm new here and I hope to share testimonies too.
I just want to push some questions to the house before commencing my application process, thanks in anticipation for you truthful answers.
First, I want to employ the service of an agent to apply for study visa but I want to confirm if her offers are real as she said.
First,she said the schools her company partners with do not require tution deposits, how true?
Secondly, she said I can choose to defer my admission on getting to Canada after completing all necessary registrations in school,is this possible?
Also, she said just my WAEC result is needed as I want to apply for an undergraduate program, won't not doing IELTS be a problem?
Won't it also be a problem that my WAEC is 2017?

Thanks all.
I'd appreciate all answers

For the bolded..
Hahahahahaha.. Jesus Christ..Bro.. RUN!!

For the first question, lemme guess, she said university of Manitoba?. Please most universities in Canada take tuition deposits for undergraduate. You pay either half or full amount.

You can defer your admission if you have paid either a tuition deposit or full tuition and is possible for all schools. Shes making it look like its rocket science.

Please do you have a bsc already. How old are you?
If you have a bsc, do not go for another bsc o. If you dont have a bsc, how old are you? Cos age matters when it comes to applying for bsc.
Visa could be denied based om purpose of visit.
These agents just tell people to go for bsc with imaginary promises, less or wrong information just to get money from you.

She wants you money boss..

Iffylove:
Hello everyone
What are the necessary documents to take long for medicals?
Thank you.

International passport and your ATM card if you are paying there.
