If you don't mind me asking, did you only try GTB? I understand that you opened accounts with Jaiz and UBA. Did you use them at all?
Used all. Apart from GT the rest are still on ADB reviewer

I hope they complete your payment soon.

Which bank did you use? And how long have you been waiting?

I want to pay my tuition soon. Which bank can you recommend as things stand now?
Omo as things stand now I opened Jaiz and UBA just for this transaction and it's only GT my original bank that is showing progress so I can't really give a recommendation

No, this is just first step in the process, the equivalent amount is what is blocked in your account so that they can pay CBN when they allocate funds, however, CBN has not been allocating funds fast, so now you need to start praying and hope you are answered on time
Omo I have already extended flywires deadline once. How I wan take extend am again. This people should just try and hurry up o

Hello My Form A application is currently on ADB Disbursement Reviewer Stage (GT Bank). I haven't gotten any debit alert whatsoever but I just saw on my bank app that my "current balance" is short 3,033,582.68 from the "book balance" (the transaction is 9241.93 cad. Does this mean GT bank is about to complete the transaction?

2 weeks?

I have just 15 days left to pay my tuition.

What do I do now?
It might be a case of your BVN email being different from your current email address which you can rectify with your bank. When I first started with the site. The phone number for my BVN there was a very old number which Etisalat had already allocated to another number so I had to go to my bank to change it and it was adjusted on the portal

Thanks man, i appreciate your response,

I actually acquired that skill immediately i rounded up with my secondary school, that was back in 2007/2009, and it was by a road side shop, although i finished and got my certificate from my boss before i decided i wanted to change my life, then i went on to apply for a university degree.

I understand Canada seem to be a very strict place with so much English jargon i am not used to (GCMG, PPR and so on)

If given the chance, lets say you were in my shoe, would you go for this Skill Express Entry or just stick to Student route,


I really appreciate your time and your kind input, i would be glad if i can get more insight as tbh, i am still very much confused on what to even place my hands on concerning the best possible, less daunting process to secure a future for the sake of this little girl i brought into this world.


i am giving myself from now till next year dec as i really don't want to rush anything as to get it right, but God has final say but humans can make the whole thing a lot easier for their next man.


Thanks chief, i look forward any more input

Express Entry or visit/study.
Well for a start express entry is a lot cheaper. You need only about 10-15 thousand CAD as proof of funds for a single applicant which doesn't even cover tution for most schools in Canada plus express entry gives you the PR immediately. If I had the necessary NOC qualifications and with Express Entry draws said to be resuming soon, I would go for it but if finance isn't an issue then academic route is still a very good pathway

Hello NairaLand Nation. (My country people, please i need you guys help) I literally consider myself not too know anything as to know something,

i would like to start a new career, especially for the sake of my daughter, so i bring my problem come meet una, So you guys can advise me best as to reduce my life's mistake because normally person wey no know road., e go just dey lost dey go.

So i have a job here in Nigeria, a home, a small company as well, i just realized my life is actually wasting away in Nigeria, May God not allow Nigeria to happen to anybody.

so here is my question,

I want to go for my studies (Masters) in Canada but i don't want to put all my eggs in one basket, as much as i would love to leave Nigeria, leaving Nigeria is not just the main goal for me, make person no go leave frying pan enter fire in the sense that what if i don't like canada, what if the cold is unbearable for me, what if - So many "what if............."


first thing i thought would be good is for me to first visit canada and see if its the right fit for me, if not make i go meet my family for USA but i don't like the USA as well due to the Gun Bruhahah* but even Nigeria sef no safe.

now let me cut to the chase!

I want to study in canada but i would like to first visit and come back then decide if i want to study there or seek another country.

I have a paying Job - ( 9 to 5 )
I little home of mine (Not Rented)
A family, wife and daughter
A registered company (Not so Big)
I invest in the Nigerian Stock Exchange
I am a Graduate in one of the Nigerian University
I own a small car, and a few landed properties
I have hand work - I can build Aluminum windows and Doors apart from my white collar job - 5Years of Apprenticeship down the drain.


Basically i live my life off asset rather than cash

I have a friend in canada, more than 10years of friendship that she even offered to house me for free if i ever make it to canada either for visit or for studies. but we are not related, just pure friendship, we do video calls once in a while, she's willing to help in anyway she can as she knows my family gan, like we've been friends for that long - YES!


what is the best step to take to visit this canada and reduce my chance of being rejected.

please if you are an agent, i use God name take beg you, stay away from me, una don do one of my guy bad thing wey make me fear una pass Satan sef, i would appreciate an open advise or perhaps send my email for a private advise, but i will not be happy dealing with a visa agent.

PS: This is my first time ever trying to secure a canadian visa., would you advise i just shoot for the Study visa directly or first apply for a tourist visa to find out if canada is the right fit for me for studies and life after Nigeria.

Pleas you guys should come through for me, another 8years in Nigeria with election by the corner no even dey sweet my body.

I would appreciate if anyone could explain this process to me like a 5year old,

This is basically my first time being so interested in canada, like to leave Nigeria no dey even move me but after that ENDSars and this election by the corner, Omo my Omo is Omo'ed!

Question: Visit first or Apply for Studies Straight!
Reason: to reduce the ups and downs of visa headaches, and also to decide which school is best for me.
With your skills Express Entry may be possible for you and it's due to resume soon. You can try looking into that

Could it be a case that the process didn’t start on time?
GT bank told me point blank that anything school fees is minimum of 30days. I have access bank as well they told me 4 weeks minimum. I enquired and people were recommending UBA so I personally visited the bank and they assured me that it would be completed. I opened the account there and then and transferred the money to fund it. Only to be met with frustration. So don't sit in your house and be assuming the process someone went through

Reach out to Applyboard again. Fanshawe also withdraw my ward’s offer in 30days but then i wrote to applyboard telling them about country logistics and they wrote to Fanshawe, who responded that if we make payments they will reinstate the offer if there was still space in the course.

All the best
And if there's no space, what happens then to the payment, what will be the new time window, I'm just so pissed

More than blaming Nigeria, do you know what you could have done differently that you didn’t do? Or ask for advise? You would have emailed your school with a proof that the process is already on going and they would extend the deadline for you. That’s what others do. And for that Form A... it’s preferable to use banks that are not too big like Union bank... they work faster
The school works with agents eg applyboard so it's not a direct communication channel, I already told them to apply for extension and they said they reached out to the school but I didn't get a further response till the deadline elapsed

Omo this country and incompetency, got my offer letter withdrawn from Fanshawe as I couldn't meet up with the deposit deadline. I was initially using GT bank but switched to UBA after several assurances from the bank that they would make it in time only after opening account and funding it for Form A, they are saying nonsense like it's in the hand of CBN bla bla, it has not even crossed ADB reviewer stage. Anyway sha na to go close my account. GT bank even to cancel application still no response and yet the useless government will say they don't understand why people are desperate to leave the country where nothing ever works

If you are not sure that you will meet deadline
You can ask for extension from the school
I did it and the school granted it to me
I applied for extension today but gt bank told me 30 days is what they use to process school fees with Form A so I am thinking of using another bank during the extension. So do I need to create an account with them or still process with their banks but debit to my GTaccount

I started my Form A process last week with Gtbank since that's my bank, downloaded the Form A and went to their office today to see if there's a way to fasten the process. Omo they said that it won't be available before my deadline (19th May). So I researched and saw that UBA and Jaiz are among the fastest banks for Form A. So do I have to open an account with them or can they handle the transaction even with my GT account
