All your concerns are on Proof of Funds and Home Ties.

If POF and and Home Ties make you think Canadian Visa is harder to get, then you are not playing by the rules and you are not ready to make your ways right.

You even mentioned here that people borrow money and put in account for 30 days (refer to a part of your post bolded above). This sounds unprofessional and dishonest of you, it corroborates the fact that you are not ready to mend your ways. In fact, this is an evidence that you are one of the people giving genuine Nigerians problems in getting Canadian visa. Your words encourage IRCC to make Nigerian processing time longer. In Poland, visa application and decision take 3 - 5 days despite backlogs. You are one of the people giving them evidence to treat Nigerians shabbily. Kindly desist from this kind of behaviour.

You even say I shouldn't base my conclusion on what I read here, who do you think is talking based on what I read here? Perhaps you don't know that around less than 1% of people applying for Canadian study visa are those coming on Nairaland.

ShowYoung:
Bro, it's easy and straight forward only if you know the way.

Many people here are testifiers.

Onaya:
Hello bro,

I did my biometrics in Abuja and would be sending my passport for stamping to the same office. Will I be required to pay the transmission fee, or just the courier service fee alone?

I'd be glad to get more clarifications on this. Thank you!

WESTERNCR:
Good day my fellow NL. Pls guys I need the amount for the transmission fee for sending passport to Abuja for stamping. I have been searching for the information on this forum but couldn't get it. Pls I need the acct details to pay the transmission of passport fee to.

Thank you

ShowYoung:
Yes, it is easier in Canada than in the UK. The accompanying spouse will be issued open work permit which means the spouse can work in any job anywhere and for any employer while the other studies.

Possibly, the one holding an open work permit might get higher chance of getting the family PR.

OneLocalMan:
Hello House, please i need a little clarification.

This is my first time trying to apply to a Canadian university, i have been doing some deep research to make sure i try to get things right with the help of the gurus in the house.

My Question are:

1. First i realized Mpower has limited number of school they offer student loan to, can someone please recommend other facility for student loan other than Mpower for Canada student. others i saw only offer to USA student.

2. Has anybody ever graduated from Ontario College of Management & Technology and gotten their PGWP ?
it is stated on IRCC website that people who graduate from OCMT are not eligible for PGWP, i would like to find out if anyone has been able to get through with IRCC and the PGWP.

3. Lastly, what are the chances of getting an admission with second class lower for someone with up to 3years work experience from a university rather than college.

4. Does the number of weeks matter when getting your PGWP, i mean can someone with 8months - 1year get their PGWP, i know the longer the program time, the better they can get their extended PGWP, so does the timeframe of a program really matter ? if yes, please be kind to explain different scenario to me

5. When going for Upfront Medicals, what type of test do this hospital carry out, is it malaria test or some type of other stuff, perhaps a kind reply is needed here too.

**** Most important Question is Number ONE **** but i would appreciate other replies

Thanks.

Abi2022:
I have an active Express Entry Profiles but did not state same in my LOA or Study Plan when applying for my study permit. I assumed they are separate applications Can this affect my application negatively? Is it required to declare?

Dear NL Family,

I am planning to submit my application this Friday and I am seriously scared, worried and nervous. I can't even give explanation as to why I'm having this feeling.

I'm planning to go for a year course and tuition is 18,000 Cad out of which 10,000 Cad has been paid.

I have close to 20M in my account and a fixed deposit of 15M that will be matured before my school resumption date.

I am gainfully employed and also have a registered business with CAC. I'm self sponsor and my course of study here in Nigeria is related to my 17 years work experience and what I'm going to study in Canada.
I have 2 properties here in Lagos.

Planning to travel with my kids, no one to leave them with.

I have 4 siblings all here in Nigeria at the moment with an aged mom.

What are my chances of getting PPR?

Is this feeling of my okay?

I'm wondering how I'm going to cope after submitting if I'm already feeling this way now that I'm yet to submit. Hmmm, na wa o

I wish everyone expecting PPR goodnews

Pls how can I get this off my mind? I'm withdrawing from people and all I think about now is IRCC

Hi everyone,

Thank you for all the help everyone brings in here. I am a product of the wealth of information stocked up here on nairaland. Coincidentally, May 27 2021 was the day I got my share of hot breakfast of study visa denial served steaming hott! Omo! But the faith and positive energy I got from here pulled me through. Went for JR (my timeline is on my profile) and came out victorious! Today, 1 year after, it's my 8th month in CA and just this week my family visa application was approved - SOWP, 2 SV, 1VV! THIS IS GOD! It only ends in praise when we persevere. I wish you nothing less than victory.


So, today I have a problem; VFS rejected the passports sent to their abuja office today o! The DHL customer care said that ''a certain document was missing''.

Abeg, what could be missing? Anyone in this position? N3800 transmission fee was paid for a family of 4 for a 2way courier. All other document was there - colored photocopies of passport datapage, PPR letters, yellow strip, consent form - my wife signed on behalf of the kids, and a paper bearing all the names of the family members.

I count on you for a feedback.

And i'm open to help anyone needing help and add my quota to your success story as well. Private chat me.
Thanks

Who's traveling for the fall? When are you leaving? Any cost-effective airline? I'll appreciate helpful tips. Thanks.

Josh3322:
I did my biometrics in Lagos and I'm sending it to the visa office in Lagos also.

Josh3322:
I just called vfs and I was told to pay about #9,400 and add the transfer receipt to my submission. So I can just use the BVL instead?

Josh3322:
Good morning guys. I can't seem to find my biometric confirmation slip. Please is it compulsory for passport submission?

PPR JUST DROPPED!!!!!

I will be coming back to drop my timeline. I'm still shocked.

CeceTravels:
HELP! My student visa was denied again�:This was the cry of a friend who reached out to me on facebook.

This friend of mine has applied for a study visa to Canada before,but her visa was denied for reasons she is unaware of. I had previously advised her to learn the reasons for her refusal and to understand the steps required in obtaining a visa before applying for a second time, but she claimed she had it under control until she informed me that her visa had been refused yet again�

Studying in Canada is a great experience but Knowing how to apply for a student visa can be overwhelming especially if you have no prior experience. I'll be mentioning few factors you should consider when applying for a student visa.

Gathering your documentation is one of the most important things to do when applying for a student visa and it is done by;
1)Receiving an acceptance letter from a designated learning institution(DLI): To apply for a student visa to Canada,you must first get an acceptance letter from the school that will be hosting you.

2)Provide proof of your ability to pay for tuition and housing: This shows that you have the financial means for paying your tuition and living expenses in Canada before enrolling.This should contain proof of student loans from a bank or bank statement from the last 4-6 months, or a letter from the sponsoring person or school, depending on which one you'll be applying.

3)Have a valid international passport: According to the Canadian High Commission, you must have a passport valid for the duration of your intended stay in Canada.

4)Present a letter of explanation as to why you're studying in Canada:You must explain why you are studying in Canada, list the course you plan to take, and demonstrate that you will return to your home country once you have completed your studies (this is vital).If you are unable to write a convincing statement of purpose, seek guidance from an expert.

5)Prepare 2 passport-size pictures to include with your application: This should be recent pictures of you. All of your facial expressions in the images should be neutral, and you should be facing forward against a plain background.


At this point, I'm going to stop. This isn't all tho; there are still a lot of factors to consider but I can't go into it now.

If your visa has previously been denied, don't be too hard on yourself; there's obviously something you're not doing correctly.You must discover the reasons for the visa officer's refusal; this is important; do not be like my friend, who failed to exercise adequate caution�

Did you make full payment of your tuition fees before enrolling first semester courses at Centennial College?

obaalasepe:
Good evening everyone, where can I do my affidavit of return and oath of good conduct in Lagos.
Thanks

Iamgrac:
Good day everyone,
I finally got my acceptance letter from centennial college after making a deposit of 2650 dollars. But in the acceptance letter it states I should pay the remaining fees of 6680 dollars before June 25th.
The program is starting by September.
But as I dey like this, I no fit afford that kind money in just dat shikini period of time.
I'm thinking of deferring to January.
My question now is that, will me deferring my admission to January increase the due date of payment.
Please I need any amount of inputs I can get.

freshdude:
Hi Guys, I am trying to book a date for my biometrics. The capturing is only done in Abuja and Lagos, but I reside in P.h. I have not been notified to do medicals yet, can I do upfront medicals when I come for my biometrics?( If yes, how do I go about this) This way, I wont have to travel down to Lagos or Abuja again for medicals. Are there approved hospitals for medicals in P.h?

Osemigho:
Nobody dey spoonfeed then. The funny part is that people read and still tender documents submitted after approval. Ghost readers and "how can I send my passport? With no documents submitted" is the new approach. Some OGs Don notice am turn their knowledge to business. I no blame anyone. I came back to refresh my knowledge and had to seriously read again from August to December 2021 before advising my latest applicant. I got to know that LOE/SOP and funds style Don change Gan. It is well.

KellyKk:
All in all if you can still help people help them

People are not helping matters

DestinationCann:
Baba, you didn't answer my question ooo .

Help my anxiety.

This is what my tracking information shows.

Does it mean it's going back to Lagos from Abuja or Abuja will return directly using DHL?

When will counterfoil drop? Should it have dropped?

DestinationCann:
Sadly so but you'll not blame them.
People have obviously refused to read or make use of the knowledge gathered here.

Truth is, nobody will spend their time to guide others through visa application process without getting paid for it.

People come here to ask others to "guide them through the process" and reject any referral to the 1st page. They also come here to ask questions on topics that have thoroughly been trashed.

DestinationCann:
At what point did you get the counterfoil?
I don dey taya.
