You too can post a video showing something positive, and we can compare. This will provide a balanced viewpoint instead of just attacking the information being shared. Please, we need information!

I guess you are new here, where did you see me attack the poster? Have you bothered to see the history of my posts or the other party's posts here?

Hello, I got laid off from my work after 3weeks of submitting my wife’s SOWP application due to shortage of work. I don’t know if this can affect their application that is still under processing.

You are presently on PGWP now I assume, typically you have to have a job before your spouse can be approved for SOWP, since as at the time you submitted the application, you were still employed then you should be good. Just try to get a new job quickly.

Kindly help with this question my people😊.

If I change from a diploma program to a STEM MSc program in the same school. Can I use the new admission letter to apply for a Spousal work permit for my husband?

Thank you

Yes, you can since it is a master's course.

It triggers nothing because Global Case Management System (GCMS) notes from IRCC are often processed by clerical employees, many of whom work part-time mostly 1 year contract. Their primary role is to match your data with the information you provided, retrieve your file, and send it to you. Their temporary ID number is usually noted in the file. In most cases, the individuals processing these files are not IRCC case officers.

I never said case officers process GCMS notes. Case Officers must enter all processing notes/actions on GCMS, in fact all action/activities that occur on an app are captured on GCMS as it is a standard practice, and you think the case officer does not see that a request for the notes has been made something that will be captured in the GCMS itself.

Jeboy:
So IRCC usually have knowledge of the times we ask for GCMS note?

And if yes, what does that do to them or the visa officer involved. I am just curious.

Cos the GCMS notes contains the handling of the applicant's file and the job done by the processing officer, they will usually want to have a decent work that will likely be reviewed by the applicants, their reps or lawyers. So sometimes when requests come for files that have been languishing, the VO remembers, then does a touch up or attends to it, though his action does not stop the responsible unit from sending the note.

Hi all,

Raised another one few days ago; no response too. I am really tired fr. I have also deferred from September to January and my resumption is supposed to be in some days. Anyone knows what else I can do please?

Please request for GCMS note on the application. It should trigger some response

[quote author=amnotapervert post=133336296][/quote]How is money printing responsible for expensive housing?

Basic Economics 101.

Canada isn't building houses fast enough to meet demand.

Money printing floods the economy with liquidity, lowers interest rates, and drives investment into real estate, which increases demand and drives up housing prices.

And yes, he forced her to resign after she couldn't control his $62 billion deficit spending as Minister of Finance—just like he forced his previous finance minister, William Francis Morneau Jr., to resign.

The bolded is the reason why houses have been expensive, not excessive liquidity, the interest rates have been on high since March 2022 and it is only this year that the BofC have started easing the rates.

As for the finance minister the main issue bwt her and JT is how Canada was to handle Trump threats of 25% tariff on Canadian goods, while the ex finance minister believes that they should confront Trump head on and keep their resources (Money) handy to that( that is why she was against the $250 cheques that the govt will give to some certain tax payers), JT believes that they should rapport with Trump and negotiate to see what they can do. It is this disagreement that has led for JT to try to move her to another ministry before she resigned, though there are rumours that the ex finance minister wants to contest for LP leadership if JT resigns.

Lowoa:
People of God, please I need VFS Lagos phone and email address. The one sent to me via mail tracking is taking me to India. DHL is telling me they only do drop off and not pick up. My passport has been with them since last week of November.

Go to their site and use the chat function, that is the quickest way they respond

amnotapervert:
Whatever you see in any business, you take it.

That’s why I reduce my risk by selecting better tenants—those who are more likely to leave if they aren’t paying rent.

Real estate shouldn’t be considered an investment?

Tell that to the world’s largest asset managers, BlackRock and Brookfield Asset Management, who own the largest portfolios of single-family residences in North America.

Brookfield Asset Management alone owns about $1 trillion worth of property, spanning both commercial and non-commercial (single-family homes) real estate.

https://www.brookfield.com/our-businesses/real-estate

The reason housing is so expensive in Canada today is because of a clown named Justin Trudeau. His reckless money printing has completely messed things up. To top it off, his Finance and Housing Minister just resigned today.

How is money printing responsible for expensive housing? You also did not say that it was because JT wanted to reassign his finance minister that made her resign, it is not as if she woke up and offered her resignation.

Average 3 bedroom Town-house in Scarborough is around $750,000 to $830,200 What is the mortgage payment for that ?

I got my investment property with my sister

Which is at 30 Meadowglen Pl, Scarborough, ON M1G 0A6. 3 bedroom

it's about a 7 mins drive from Centennial College

I got at $560,000 back in 2022 with 20% with mortgage of $2,482.64 per month that's minus condo fee, insurance and utilities which is about $3,221.32 I didn't add internet and repairs so let's say $3,400.

How much rent should we collect from people per room?

Toronto isn't a cheap city

The fact is that 95% of our people coming to study cannot afford the quoted rent, not with the recent devaluation in Naira. Those who can afford it might not be willing to share a space like that since they can alternatively get a bigger space with their resources. I think your target market should be PRs or working class TRs. I doubt if students can take this up, but you never can tell o. A student might like it and take it up.

Kunfu:
My PPR has landed, thanks bobomaigida for your concern

Congratulations, may Canada favour you!!

jesufifunmi:
Hello all, the applicant has been denied in the past and mistakenly answered No to the question "Have you ever been refused a visa or permit, denied entry to, or ordered to leave any country or territory?" This was a genuine mistake as he fully understands that IRCC has access to his application history. He misinterpreted the phrasing of the question, focusing on the latter part of it. What should we do?

Just reapply and answer the questions correctly.

MEND001:

oklarlexzy:
Good morning all. I was refused for the second time based on this. I only show employment letter stating my wife is a resident guest attendance (teer4). She is already on her pgwp

Sorry for the refusal.

The VO refused the application because they think the job your spouse is doing presently is too low, in the TEER ranking. The section of the regulation quoted give them broad powers to do this

Canadian interests

205 A work permit may be issued under section 200 to a foreign national who intends to perform work that

(a) would create or maintain significant social, cultural or economic benefits or opportunities for Canadian citizens or permanent residents;

(b) would create or maintain reciprocal employment of Canadian citizens or permanent residents of Canada in other countries;

(c) is designated by the Minister as being work that can be performed by a foreign national on the basis of the following criteria, namely,

(i) the work is related to a research program,

(i.1) the work is an essential part of a post-secondary academic, vocational or professional training program offered by a designated learning institution as defined in section 211.1,

(i.2) the work is an essential part of a program at the secondary level

(A) that is a vocational training program offered by a designated learning institution in Quebec, or

(B) that is a program offered by a designated learning institution that requires students to work in order to obtain their secondary or high school diploma or certificate of graduation, or

(ii) limited access to the Canadian labour market is necessary for reasons of public policy relating to the competitiveness of Canada’s academic institutions or economy; [i][/i]or

(d) is of a religious or charitable nature.

You can get more docs and send a reconsideration or/and reapply, is the work your spouse does a part time work?

Vankayyyyy:
It’s PPR everyone🥹… it’s been God all the way, this journey was not an easy one but am forever grateful and another special thanks to Bombadiga for his unlimited assistance and support.

I sent several webforms and emails to all the Ircc email addresses I can get online after I submitted the request letter but no positive response. Even sent to MP as well no response. Two days ago, I stumbled upon some set of new Ircc email addresses I saw here and I decided to send another mail to all of them. Fortunately for me , PPR dropped last night around 8:25pm. Have attached the email address for anyone that’s still waiting for response from Ircc, God will come through🙏

The hospital will send the report to IRCC, you can also send a copy of the e medical sheet via webform.

attayo1:

Rez86:
PPR ALERT!
Hello all, thanks for all the information you guys drop here, it calmed me down while I was waiting for my visa approval mail.

I applied for study permit on the 31st of October,
Biometrics updated same day ( I have a valid biometrics)
Medicals passed - 18th of November,
PPR letter dropped same 18th of November.

SOWP was also approved for my spouse same day.
We are a family of 4.
Our toddler daughters are American citizens so they didn’t need a visa, but we included proof of funds for a family of 4.

School is resuming in January 2025.

We also have a valid Canadian visit visa that we got last year, we took a trip to Canada in May this year and spent 5 weeks, we came back and started the school application process.
All thanks to God.
I pray for those still waiting to get a positive result soonest 🙏🏼

Congratulations, you went on a visit and came back home and said we need to move back semi permanently...

[quote author=Rachy3063 post=132910846][/quote]You can do a either a free or paid request for GCMS notes, search on this thread to see the process to do so.

I suspect the issue with your application the lack of explanation on the sources of the funds with verifiable documents, cos even though the funds are available, the processing officer does not know how you raised the funds in the first place.

NwamakaHalie:
Good afternoon everyone and Happy sunday. Please guys, I applied for study visa in July and was refused in August, I had to differ my admission for Jan 2025 with the hope of reapplying but due to some unfortunate circumstances I decided to withdraw my admission and request for a refund. Please guys how do I go about this request and how long does it take to get defunded….thank you

Your school will tell you how long they process their refund, check their refund policy to know the correct details

Dame24:
Hi everyone! Please can a family estate statement of account work as proof of fund for a study visa application?
The applicant’s father is one of the signatory to the account so it is the same last name on the statement.

The link is too far, if the funds is readily available, they should send you the money

djbaju:
Good evening, house. Please, can I use my e-statement of account generated from my bank app for my tourist visa application? Or is it compulsory that I send it to the embassy from the bank?

It is preferable to send MBS to IRCC, but they also accept the soft copies generated from the app, just ensure it carries the stamp or any other confirmatory mark.

gretop86:
Hello house,

Please is it compulsory to buy a round trip/ 2-way travel ticket when traveling to Canada for a 1 year PGD program? I am resuming in January, 2025 and bought an Egypt air one way ticket thinking that I can buy a return ticket later but the online travel ticket platform I got the ticket from has been calling me saying that with a study visa, it is compulsory I buy a round trip/2 way ticket with Egypt air else I might have issues when traveling. Please is this true or do they just want to sell travel tickets.

I was told by a friend that I can buy a one way ticket on Egypt air if I have paid for my first semester in full and all I need to do is to have a print out of it with me. I don’t know how true this is.

Please kindly advise me on this to avoid issues when traveling. I look forward to your all responses. Thanks a lot.

There is no compulsion to buy a round trip ticket, neither IRCC or CBSA requires it. The airline could be pushing this cos it helps them make more sales. It is not mandatory.

jayciekey:
Hello please I am trying to use my own account to submit this application but the platform keeps thinking I (who is already in Canada as a student) is also applying for a visit visa with my wife and kid. But I am only applying for wive and kid alone.

It is because you are answering the questions like you are the one applying, your spouse should be the primary applicant now.

kinkyhead:
Thanks for this information.

Pls what type of qualification for my son are you referring? He just has his waec but he is doing an A level course in IT at a college.

Apply for SP for him then, since he is yet to attend a post secondary school.

kinkyhead:
Hello all, my humble greetings.
