Please which one is introduction letter from IRCC
chrisoo:
Hello NLanders,

Significant Landing Gist ( Be Careful with your documents and luggage at the Airport)

To God be the Glory! I landed Toronto Pearson Int'l Airport 2 days ago and and have received my Study Permit at the immigration office in the YYZ airport. The devil tried to stop me but God granted me grace and favor and I scaled through. I flew Ethiopian Airlines which was scheduled to fly from Lagos to Toronton (Canada) via Addis Ababa in Ethiopia - Dublin (Ireland) - Toronto. Due to rush, some of my documents which I was reviewing on my laps in the airplane slipped from my hand and fell on the floor of the airplane- under the seat, and I didnt know. These were reciepts of my sch fees, Letter of Intro from IRCC and LOA etc. I only discovered when we were boarding the connecting flight to Dublin...I was reviewing my next ticket for transfer flight. We had only 30 mins to start boarding the connecting flight to Dublin. I reported to Bole - Ethipian Airport officials)...they told me to wait that they will fetch it but it will take some time. At this time, I had only 15 mins left to Board. There was also a lady who forgot her laptop in the plane. When i told her about my own problem...she quickly said its a small matter. (she was going to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe). She said, if I have those docs in my phone...I could show the Canadian Immigration the docs in my phone. Immediately, I brought out my laptop from my hand luggage (Thank God its in my hand luggage not checked in box), transferred all relevant docs from my system to my phone via whatsapp sharing app. I ran and join the queue for boarding. I continue praying for favor to have the soft copies accepted at Toronton by immigration. To the Glory of God, the officer that interviewed me agreed look at the documents which I had already packaged in a folder on my phone. Thank God for technology. The young man was greatly satisfied with the documents and all the questions he asked based on what I submitted during my application in Nigeria. You know there was no physical interview in Nigeria...Just online submission and approval (in principle) pending arrival for physical interview at any Canadian Boarder. My interview lasted just 15 mins but the man touched almost everything in my IRCC Portal. There was a crowd of about 50 persons waiting behind me on queue, as they do in USA embassy in Lagos, but the difference is that Canadian are more humane, kind and patient to hear you out. Our God is wonderful. Lessons: If you are coming through YYZ (Pearson International Airport, Toronto), be sure to have your:
1. Letter of Introduction
2. Updated Letter of Acceptance.
3. Evidence of School Fees Payment OR Proof of Fund for Tuition (They are more interested in Tuition Payment)
4. Ensure to understand your own form and all the information therein. They will recall your IRCC Portal with your UCI number and pick questions at random.
5. Be sure you follow your agent strictly and closely (for those who use agents) and make sure all information are correct. Any discrepant answer will warrant you to be sent back to Nigeria. Right in my presence, someone from Africa (I dont know which country but I suspect Nigeria) was sent back due to fake documents. Please lets be careful. May God help us all!

Please how long did it take to process ?
ade279:
Hello everyone..
So I did my biometrics in Lagos, and when PPR landed, I submitted my passport at the same VAC Lagos. I didn't pay for any courier, I went physically to submit myself. I received notification that it has been processed and currently in VAC Abuja.

My question is: do I need to pay for courier to bring it down to Lagos VAC?

Thanks!

I was denied last week due to the same reason. It’s better to go for a course related to your previous course of study or your current career. Unless you can write a good SOP to convince the VO. I got admission for the same course and my visa was refused. So it’s better you go for an admin related program
odogwu4real:


My career has been Admin related but nothing social work or health. I put Personal support worker because I learnt they are in demand in Canada and easy to get work after studies. My concern if this is a red flag to the visa officer.

Congratulations. Did you use the old or new portal?
Kirfred:
Thanks to everyone, I pray that it will end in praise for everyone waiting for their PPR🙏
I'm still in surprise how my application was processed within 5 days. It can only be God

This is my timeline-
4 years course
May resumption
I did Biochemistry in my first degree, graduated in 2010. But I've been into business since 7 years ago, I decided to study Business economics (Bsc)

First application Submitted October 3rd, 2022
Biometric: 17th October, 2022
Upfront Medical test: 14th November, 2022
Visa refused: 20th December, 2022

Reason: Insufficient fund and insufficient documentation to support my sponsors

I submitted all the neccessary documents but I didn't notarized any of the letters of my sponsors. My husband and my brother are my sponsors. I had #4.5 in my naira account and $7,500 in my dollar account. My 2 sponsors had more than 80,000 USD in their dollar accounts. I paid 11,500 CAD to my school account. So I thought my financial aspect is settled, not until I was refused. I didn't submitted any of my property documents in my first application.
I was to resumed 9th of January before, I sent mail to school to seek for another resumption date. I was given 2 options of May and September. So I chose May resumption

I submitted again 4th Feburary, 2023

I paid another 3500 CAD into my school account thru my husband dollar account to makes it 15,000 CAD and I paid another 10,000 CAD thru Form A from my naira account (which hasn't dropped into my school account as at the time I reapplied)

My brother transferred #9.5M into my account while my husband transferred 12,500 USD into my Domiciliary account . And they both submitted accounts of 80,000 USD. I have #11.5 in my naira account and 15,000 USD in my dom account

Both of my sponsors sworn an affidavit of giving me 25,000 CAD each year throughout my study stay and they indicated that the money they transferred into my account was part of the money they promised and they will balance up b4 school resumes

I submitted all our landed properties documents (empty lands of 4 plots, shopping complex, four flats building and uncompleted duplex building). Also my car documents

My husband helped me with another comprehensive SOP and detailed Letter of explanation

I submitted enough family pictures

My sponsors wrote sponsorship letters and proof of relationship letters (All notarized) while I added my marriage certificate to my husband own and birth certificate to my brothers own.

Other documents are
Admission letter
School account (15,000 CAD)
Bsc certificate
Neco result
Transcript
NIN slip
Birth certificates of my children
My birth certificate
Israeli visa
Police clearance (expired)
CAC certificate
CV
My brother's company CAC certificate
My brother's ICAN certificate

2. The admission details- e.g. institution, commencement/completion dates, location in Canada, tuition, DLI, student number etc
3. Reasons for Choosing the institution, program and Canada
4. Educational and Career Information
5. Career Objectives after completion of studies
6. Family 👪 details and information- parents, spouse, siblings, children etc
7. Travel History
Assets and Sources of Fund
8. Other information
9. Conclusion

Please note that this is note a brochure from IRCC or an approved guidelines, but I've used it for about 5 people successfully, without any rejection, including my humble self (twice)

Hi NL,

It’s PPR…

I am writing this to contribute my bit because I actually got some knowledge from this trend.

I received my PPR on the last week after months of waiting. Below are my timeline and some details:

I submitted my application on the 10th September 2022 and did my biometrics on the 14th of September 2022.

I did upfront medicals and it was updated 19th of October after sending webforms to Nairobi.

After that the wait started.

When my application was exactly 12weeks old I started sending countless webforms to Nairobi and IRCC canada but no positive response was received.

I had to request GCMS notes on 16th November 2022 but still haven’t received it.

I later used a friend to contact an MP who then contacted IRCC on my behalf and they got back saying that my eligibility had started and that every other things is in order. Advising me to wait for them to update me.

I noticed that the day my eligibility started was the day the MP got back to my friend with the update.

2 weeks after my eligibility started I received my PPR.

My program is 8months and it is a Post Graduate Certificate program.

In other to contribute back to NL, I am willing to assist anyone with their admissions and questions if need be.

PS: I did my application myself and backed it with prayers and follows up
