ghabrhiel10: No evidence of travel history presented. The applicant completed a bachelor's degree in biochemistry in 2015 and has been working since April 2018. He now wants to start a three year program in chemical engineering techniques at the Mohawk College at an estimated cost of 26,284 Cad/year. The applicants letter of motivation is succinct and vague; it does not demonstrate the relevance of such studies at such a cost in Canada. Therefore for all the reasons mentioned above, I am not satisfied that the applicant is a bona-fide student who meets the requirements of the IRPA and who will leave Canada at the end of his/her authorized stay. Request rejected The logical progression of career/studies is always expected by the Visa Officer it is better to change it to PG level or Master level as you already hold a Bachelors Degree. (Personal Suggestion) According to that reasons and comments, make a strong sop justifying all the reasons/comments made by VO in your GCMS notes. And for other docs, as you are telling they all r perfect and professionally checked, so u need to make a new strong sop. Well, No need for too much talk @frank done finish the work for you. Bless you |

technokid: Spoke with an Immigration consultant today and she told me the chances of me getting a student visa was low because of my age. Here is my status: - I am 34years - Single - Applying for a 2 year vocational diploma program in web development - Self sponsored - I own a web development business and run an ecommerce portal - I have 2 accounts, active company account with a closing balance of 1.2m(daily inflow and out flow of cash), personal account with a closing balance of 12m - Paid a deposit of tuition fees of 4000cad remaining a balance of 18k.
Please I need your opinions on this Don’t be discouraged by anyone, it all boils down on how you package your application. There’s no age limit in education. Besides your business can serve as your home tie if only you ain’t planning to liquidate it (though I don’t know the nature of your business). To make it easier for you, make sure your course is closely related to your current business so that you can back it up in your LOE or SOP. Moreover, You have a good finance. So also you can be the main sponsor and use your parent or any of your siblings as a subsidiary sponsor. If you're applying for winter, Be fast with it ooooh cause these cic people... Bless up |

Dear Lord Jesus, thank You for the way that You have led us so far, and I ask Lord that You would undertake for the soon release of our visa, which is taking so long to go through the application and approval process. Lord, we don’t understand the reason for the long delay, but trust that You will intervene in this matter, and allow the papers to be released in time for the proposed visit abroad. Lord, You have promised that those that put their trust in You will not be disappointed. Hear my petition I pray, and allow the visa to be released speedily - and we will give You all the praise and all the glory, this I ask in Jesus name, Amen |

Naijaforeigner: Louisanc long post alert.
I hope you see this. I have been following your post and the feedback by the gurus.
These are the loop holes you must critically address.
(1) why would your boss say he is sponsoring you because you willl come back to his job after studies in cAnada. Are you saying your boss will wait for x years for you to complete your UG studies in Canada? Please think about it, does that sound real to you?
(2) Also you have spent just 2 months on this job, why would he want to sponsor you? You mean of all the staff in the company? He just singles you out and decides to sponsor you? Is he your family member? This is another loophole.
(3) Also why another UG studies? Why would you want to spend 25,000 Canadian dollars on another UG studies when you already have a BSC? If you can handle these 3 areas very well, I can take a bet you will get your visa.
Let me tell you how I Think you should go about area of funds.
Please drop the idea of you using your boss account (this is my personal opinion).
(1) use only your bothers account and your own account. (When I applied, I used just my mom and my account).
Beg your boss to transfer that money he wants to use in supporting you to your brothers account and then your brother will transfer the money to your own account (please let any lump sum that will go into your account be from your brothers account, it can be easily explained).
Show proof that your brother is your brother by submitting his birth certificate and his data page of his international passport. Also submit your own birth certificate.
Let your brother write a letter of sponsorship clearly stating;
(1) why he has decided to sponsor you. Please let this be something emotional e,g he made a promise to your late father that he will see you through your education.
(2) how this will not be a burden to him or his family
(3) how he has shown his readiness by paying your school fees and also transferring some amount of money to your account (let him write exact amount he transferred into your account). Please make sure he writes it clearly that he has paid 25,000 Canadian dollars already. Trust me, these things work on the mind when the VO sees it.
Please I beg you in the name of God let your brothers letter be straight to the point and it should address those points listed above. If possible just 500 words (1 A4 paper is enough). You don’t want to bore these VO’s with unnecessary words and then they get lost trying to read 5 pages of letter.
Also you will then write your own LOE which should clearly address
(1) why you are going for another UG studies. Please make sure the reason you are giving makes sense. Think about this, why would you be going for another UG at your age? Why pharmacy all of a sudden? Have you done something related to drugs? Have you worked in a drugs company? Whatever reason you give must be sensible and justified with the huge amount you will be spending.
Also state how you have received money from your brothers account (please I beg you, specify the amount).
(3) what are your ties to Nigeria? I think you tried using your job as a tie back to Nigeria but I think that is not feasible considering you are going for another UG and you have spent just 2 months on the job.
Which boss in Nigeria even sponsors someone who has spent 2 months on the job and then give a study leave for x years all at once? Try looking for another string tie to Nigeria.
Please don’t let your LOE to be too long (maximum of 2 pages is what I recommend). Hit the nail on the head. These VO’s have a lot of applications. Make sure each paragraph carries your message clearly.
You will testify in Jesus name (amen). Finally, ask questions of anything you are not sure of before you submit. @Louisanc get in here. Very very insightful. |

I have paid for this year's tuition... $25,000 what do you think? my closing balance is 1.100m I have also printed the SOA You are good to go. So far your brother is the main sponsor and you are the subsidiary sponsor just that, if your boss really wants to sponsor you, collect some money maybe 1 million or 500k and run it to your account so that your acc go get belle (pregnant) Please tackle the sponsorship very very well before you submit again Sometimes it's not about sop and Loe And in your case, it is very clear in the gcms |
Travel › Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 15 by Austacus: 9:56am On Oct 23, 2018 |
Kriff: Boss, if I'm getting you right, you mean she should deposit the money bit by bit within 1 or 2 weeks? But I think I've seen GCMS Notes where the VO will say "Majority of the funds where deposited with a time frame that was close to the application submission date". Because the money that will be deposited within that time frame will be way above her starting balance In the SO A. I am not trying to counter your advise but maybe i do not understand what you were saying very well. That is why I said since the moniker waited for 1 month to get gcms He/she should calm down and run his/her personal account. I know 1 or 2 weeks is too short (time frame) 1 month or 3 wks we do for running account or rather the moniker should consult his or her bank. They will direct what to do. I may not be correct oooo abeg, am just trying to contribute on how I understand the gcms with my little knowledge. |
Travel › Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 15 by Austacus: 9:45am On Oct 23, 2018 |
Louisanc: thank you very much Tell your boss you will return the money back to him maybe after you must have submitted or gotten your trv If you tackle this sponsorship issue... You're in the right lane. (run your account by depositing bit by bit maybe 100k today, 250k next day, then you withdraw 50k, and put 300k the next day something like that. To make it easy for you, talk to your account officer or any banker around tell the person you want to run your account for visa purpose they will tell you how to do it. See, sometimes, it is not about writing top-notch sop or loe base on what I've been seeing inside and outside this thread. Your personal account and brothers account will scale through. SURELY |

Louisanc: my elder brother is my sponsor and is also using my company too If you want to use a third party why not tell the person to give you the money Then you run Your account in 1 or 2 weeks. (your boss). What I mean by running your account is depositing the money bit by bit To avoid lump amount (am saying this so that you won't repeat what they said in your gcms note) Your application is not about writing good sop or loe! Your brother account is good to go, try and talk to your boss. Collect some money from your boss and run your account. you can make use of your Brothers account statement and your personal account statement. You waited for your gcms for 1 month.

Ormohlawlah: When I applied to university of Manitoba (undergrad) I wanted to fill 'political science' as my course but I was only allowed to choose 'bachelor of arts (general)...does this mean that the VO might say I'm not a genuine student?..some schools do not allow you choose specific courses As I said earlier, all VOs ain't the same, some have a different view of seeing it especially when the application is coming from Nigeria Bachelor of act (general) sound like a course.

Henhy: I submitted: 1. Letter from sponsor 2. Bank statement( Company's account) 3. The company's details 4. My own statement of account and letter stating that i will help will help myself with little expenses 5. My employment details 6. Letter of admission from the school 7. Receipt of part payment made. I studied physics and i applied for another Bachelor of science (no course specified yet) It states on my CV that i worked in Ghana before my current employment. 042viber12: Pls guys I need you to help out this bro here As for me, I think the problem here is the course of study. The moniker course of study wasn’t specific just “science” He/she should contact the school and choose a course of study. some VOs won’t understand the condition Given to you from your school. (according to your school, Until you get to Canada then you will choose a course from the sciences) There is no reasonableness of your studentship. And remember, you're from Nigeria,(our case is different from others) VOs are looking for any slight loophole in our application! (God pass them finally) so please be more specific with your course of study. My 2 kobo, contact your school and choose a course of study. The vo that handled your application is not satisfied that you're a genuine student. (SIMPLE) Come on bro, you are a Nigerian. It's not about your school, it is about the VO handling your application, if it's working for another country it may not work for us. Though, some folks might have gotten their TRV in Nigeria without a specific course of study. The chances are slim. talk to your school and choose a course of study. (some VOs will be like... ”you should know what you're coming for”). Tackle this one (course of study), then you tackle another one by asking yourself why are you going for another bachelor degree? Some VOs would see it as ”No career progression” (a good sop or loe would do for this one) Another thing here is your sponsor cause you didn't tell us who's sponsoring you (sponsorship is very very important too). Who is your sponsor? I stand to be corrected |

goingforward: Hello Nairalanders,
I want to encourage you with Esther 6 vs 1-3. ''On that night the king could not sleep. And he gave orders to bring the book of memorable deeds, the chronicles, and they were read before the king.''.
I decree that a book of remembrance is opened upon our Canada visa applications this morning.
For each and every person who's timeline has elapsed and it seems that we have been forgotten, that the visa officers responsible for our applications will lose sleep until they have attended to and until our applications are favored, and our approvals are granted in the mighty name of Jesus.
vs 3, ''And the king said, “What honor or distinction has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?” The king’s young men who attended him said, “Nothing has been done for him.”
I decree that our applications right from this moment begin to receive priority and that the entire host of heaven begins to fast track it in the mighty name of Jesus.
Just as the King lost sleep until Mordecai was rewarded, as we have prayed, fasted, waited on God, I hereby decree by the power invested in me as a daughter of the most high God, that all the visa officers and staff responsible for all applications that have exceeded processing times begin to lose sleep until we are favored in the mighty name of Jesus. They will all not rest until they have done the will of God concerning our applications in Jesus name.
..... and the house shouts a thunderous AMEN!!!.
Have a miracle-filled week in Jesus name. Amen.
goingforward. Amen A M E N |

henricson: Yeah Egyptian air is cheap, saw one around December 17th for 256k or so, route is through Lagos to Cairo then Toronto. Saw klm for about $512 about 186k route is through Lagos to Paris to Toronto. Date for this flight is Dec 5th. My issue is, since school will resume Jan 7,2019, and visa started counting since October 11,2018 will it be too early to travel the first week of December? I mean with the whole POE ish... I hear people say here it's not good to travel too early. You can travel first week of December cause they are aware of the extreme winter condition. Canada is a polar region not a temperate region like the US, UK etc so they will welcome you cause you want to acclimatize the terrible weather condition. Just bear it in mind that air ticket price increases every week. Will advice you to book as soon as possible |
