Pls what's the difference between Sponsorship letter and affidavit of support?

Can I upload my scholarship award letter and affidavit of support from my spouse? Or must my spouse also write Sponsorship letter?

Also any experienced hand willing to review my sop?

Thanks

For the bolded...

I believe both are the same only that one is more of a legal document while the other is not.

Yes you can upload but I don't really trust the letter cos in the VOs eyes, anybody can formulate a sponsorship letter.. that's why bank statements and affidavit of support are the popular ones people use.

Have you heard of anyone been sent Medicals after BVL/ Correspondence letter has dropped?

please, Is the Medicals compulsory for every applicant??

Yes.. A friend got it BVL on the 22nd of April and medical request 23rd April..I think I posted this last 2weeks or so.

So don't be let down with no updates after BVL, like I said, the next update will appear in the next system maintenance.. POSITIVE UPDATES.

Adetayoade1:
Hello house yes I really wanted to speak on this now the lockdown has been eased any idea if they would be opening soon ??

It should be open considering the thousands waiting to apply, other things and do biometrics

Pee2Jay9:
Thanks for your response. Are you sure that English tests aren't required? I'm hearing this for the first time. Are you currently studying in canada?

I believe you are in the forum where everybody can tell you he or she didn't write English proficiency.. I didnt write and I got mine.. English proficiency isn't mandatory unless your course was taught in English. Whoever is telling u otherwise probably doesn't know it's not mandatory

Wunaarroon69:
@Anon123, are you in Canada or have you been issued a study permit?

Yea.. have a study permit. Corona no gree us travel.. so am here for now

Pseermuhel:

40k ,insufficient of funds was not a reason for denial

Did the applicant include her own account statement? And how much

Pee2Jay9:
Hello house, Happy new month. I'm new here but have read through previous threads.

I want to apply to either University of Alberta for MEng in Engineering Management or Fanshawe for Diploma in Practicals of Mechanical Engineering. I have BEng in Chemical engineering (3.96/5) and have 6 years work experience still in engineering. Kindly provide answers as much as you can to the following questions.

1. Is anybody here currently studying or had studied there at Uni of A? I want to confirm that the quoted amount on their website is for the full course, not per term or year

2. Which exam is easiest? TOEFL or IELTS Academic

I intend to sponsor myself and the goal is to get PR eventually.. Kindly provide more info to help achieve my aim, be in a reconsideration in my choice of course or school.

Thank you for responding

1) I can't say cos I don't have an answer for you boss but am sure people here might know but still stick to wat you see on the schools website

2) you don't need to write either as long as your bsc courses were taught in English and your transcript shows your courses were in English.

Completeguy:
Good day everyone, I must commend the prompt and meticulous response of people on this page. Once more well done.
To my question, I intend travelling with my family on a student visa. We are a family of 4. Myself, wife and two dependent children ( ages 6 and 3). How much money should be good for POF. It is a two year program.
I await your kind response. Thanks

Nobody can tell you an exact amount. All I say is, have enough since you are sponsoring everybody

GoodMorning and happy new month my people !!

I need an advice and way out....

I finish my secondary school in 2011 and also finish my Ordinary National Diploma In kwara poly in 2014 where I studied Business Administration and I Graduated with lower class, then I applied for Bsc in University Of Manitoba wanted to study business administration, which I gained the admission and put in for a student visa and got denied 3 times around 2015, 16 and 17 , and the refusal reasons then was insufficient funds in my sponsor account (My Dad).. so I decided to take jamb which I passed and graduated from a university in Benin �� Republic where I studied business administration and I graduated with 2.2 and I’m currently undergoing my NYSC.... with my result which school can I put in for a Master’s or what can I do next

Your contributions are needed urgently


Thanks....

You can't go for a masters with a 2.2 or it will be hard to get a masters admission with a 2.2.. pls consider going for a pgd/pgc related to your bsc.

Ollie7:
Hello everyone, hope everyone is staying safe and active.
I have been following this thread for a while and binge reading lately. I wanted help from anyone with regards to the Manitoba Institute of Trades and Technology.

Does anyone have reviews or is anyone currently studying there?

Is it too late to apply now for the fall semester in September?

In my admission application for the diploma, do i use just my Waec results and scratch card as transcripts or do i need to go back to my secondary school?

Can i apply with only my high school results?

I graduated last year with a second class(upper dv) and I'm currently in my service year to end in Nov. but i want to leave and start the diploma this year.

Please, i would appreciate any and all help. Thank you all.

PLEASE FINISH YOUR NYSC!!!!!!!!!
Apply for a course related to your bsc, Masters or PGD/PGC...don't go for a diploma cos you will be denied even with your bsc.. if u don't include that you have done your bsc, how do u explain wat u have been doing since after secondary school

ohizzy:
Please how long does the certificate takes to expire?

Thanks

3months

ohizzy:
Happy New Month Everyone,

I have a serious/not-to-serious issue depending on your point of view.

So I happen to have gained admission to Douglas College (COMPUTER AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS (POST-BACCALAUREATE DIPLOMA)) for September 2020. But I lost my job last month.

And yes I'm using an Uncle from my mothers' side as my sponsor. He owns a construction company in Nigeria.

Here are my predicaments:
1) Do I still need Letter of Introduction from Employer
2) Recommendation letters from job experience
3) Do I need to write IELTS since I already got the admission and Paid part of Tuition as requested by the school before the Pandemic?
4) Can I apply for a VISA with my passport which is expiring August 2020
5) Would a birth certificate be sufficient enough to show Ties btw my Mum and Uncle?

Thank you all for your time...

1) if you mean employment letter, u should have your own copy but if it's not.. no u don't need it
2) Optional
3)NO!
4)Honestly No.. get a new one cos by the time you get to the stage of stamping your passport, u will need to get one
5)YES and also a letter from your mum explaining her relationship with the uncle could be a useful addition.

Gu2015:
Thanks for the response.She has Nysc as her only experience.One of her sisters moved to Canada through study permit in 2015 and the other moved in 2019 with Canadian PR program.Her sponsor is her mother alone. And yes she is willing to sponsor her again.

Okay..
How much did the mother show as proof of sponsorship?

Carra202:
Pls sorry for derailing,I want to know if a graduate of an open University in Nigeria would be considered for admission in Canada or other first world country...pls this question is for decision making purpose

Yes.. as long as the school is accredited in Nigeria and you have a certificate.

Gu2015:
Hey Guys,

I hope you are staying safe out there,I am making this post for my younger sis. That was denied study visa recently. Kindly see the denial letter details below.

Thank you for your interest in studying in Canada. After careful review of your study permit application and supporting documentation, I have determined that your application does not meet the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) and Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR). I am refusing your application on the following grounds:

• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your family ties in Canada and in your country of residence.

• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your personal assets and financial asset.

She is a recent graduate that just finished her Nysc last year .Guys please do you think she should reapply. I will also like to mention she has two biological sisters in Canada specifically Calgary and that’s where the school she is attend is located.

Thanks in Advance.

My 2kobo here is, do not rush to reapply.. I will advise she gets some experience while she waits. Also they pointed out her assets, how much or Wat was used as her assets, who is her sponsor. The two biological sisters over there, wen did they move, if it's recent who was their sponsor and is the sponsor the same that wants to sponsor her.

On the BVL awaitees... I think the next time you will get an update is when next they will be a system maintenance.

SonofGod2000:

dommakavelli:
Has anyone completed their medical exam recently?

My friend did his yesterday at IOM lagos.. expecting updates on Friday

Kinzeerichy:
Thank you very much. My intention is not to use his company SOA for sponsorship but just to show that he has a running business. I’m actually using his personal SOA and fixed deposits as evidence of sponsorship and as they cover my tuition and LE.

Any contrary view?

OK.. good

Kinzeerichy:
Good Morning All, as regards letter of sponsorship from my Dad, should I use his personal letter head (just his name and address) ? or his company letterhead (because aside his personal statement of account, I’m also using his company statement of account)?

Thanks

I will advise against this.
Why?
If he uses his company account to sponsor you considering the fees run in millions, the VO will be like, won't it affect the company's operations, won't it affect staff salaries.. etc
My 2kobo, use his personal letter head and not the company's letter head..

Chidon40:
I can't continue my application online as its showing Bad gateway Error 502....

Any solution?

Start all over again

Crystalheart:
Good morning my people.. Hope you're staying safe?
I did a police character certificate last year October. My question is if I can use it for re-application? Thanks

Nope

Kentz3:
Good day guys ,i dont know wat to do about my application i already have a bsc in biology with cgpa of 2.8 and a masters degree from a cyprus university ,and now i really want to move to canada through the student visa route .i dont thing i can get a phd or a masters admission with my low bsc cgpa ,and wont it sound akward to the VO IF I apply for a pdg after having a masters already from cyprus...i want to get admission for a project management programme.
Ur contributions will be higly appreciated .

You can't apply for a admission for project management while you have a bsc in biology.. Wat I feel u should do is apply for a pgd in a course related to your bsc.

Ukpehor23:
Please I applied January 30th in the vfs office (papper route), i did my medical upfront a day before and my biometrics that same day, I got a message that the medical has been sent and my application has been received but I have not gotten any update since should I be worried.

This scenario has been asked and answers repeatedly given.. send a webform across enquiring why the delay as your school resumption is close approaching .. u can go to the previous pages to get how to do dat.

Olayibo1:
Good morning people..pls can I use my degree result to apply for a diploma program in any college at Canada or is just only waec..and if it's waec, can I use two waec results cos during my undergraduate days..I used two sittings for my ssce results..moreover, I did education management during my undergraduate days with a 2nd class lower grade but would like to put in for IT course(website design and development). Quick reply will be appreciated

Use your degree to apply for an advanced diploma or PGD or a masters.. applying for diploma is not the right way, saying this cos at the visa stage, u will see why

Vokay91:
The space provided is only seven, please what do I do since I have 2 brothers and 6 step siblings? Thank you �

Luckymama:
Nigeria is one of the designated countries. That question is meant to determine whether you will go for a medical test or not.

Ehhhh!! Where did you get this info...pls this is wrong o

Luckymama:
The family information form does not have the validate option. And there are certain areas where they say you have to sign e.g if you have no kids there’s a portion of the form where you sign a declaration that you don’t have any kids. I suggest you print only this particular form and sign then scan it back.

Ehhhh!!!! Please the person in question is apply via online not paper o.. for online, u don't download, sign and scan the Immm forms o

Habeeb521:
Hello,
Hi, im a prospective International student, I would be applying as a transfer student for fall 2021, I've completed a 5 years Higher national Diploma course in Mechanical Engineering technology @the Polytechnic here, having done that i would like to apply as a transfer student, for an undergraduate program (Petroleum Engineering) in UofAlberta or UofCalgary . what I'm concerned about is getting an admission with this criteria from Nigeria as a Higher national Diploma holder, getting advanced standing or placement for the course i enrolled for and has this type of transfer been done to Uof A or UofC for Admission. what are the possibilities and if i was given an admission how many years would it take for me to finish the course in petroleum Engineering. Thanks in advance guys, been a while, im glad I'm back on this thread after 6years to continue my ambition to Canada. #TRVfall2021
My regards to @justwise, @Chrigo if im correct, been a while and others

My 2kobo here is, finish school, go for Nysc and den apply for a admission over there in canada. I believe reason people ain't replying is cos nobody has either not done it before or they don't know what to tell u..
I think finishing and getting your Nysc at least is far better.. my 2kobo though. Like the saying here goes, don't rush to apply

Vokay91:
Good evening house,

You don't need to physically sign the form, all you need to do is write your full name according to how it's on your int passport. My 2kobo is fill the name of your own mum,dad and siblings.
