Hi guys, been a silent reader here following all your advice, been a big source of encouragement & reference for me.
I got my approval yesterday.

First Application.
Applied online : June 22, 2019
Biometrics: June 26, 2019
Medical: July 17, 2019
Passed: July 20, 2019
Approval/Correspondence :August 1, 2019



Just want to say, I was really worried as all the documents I submitted for proof of financial ability were much and after managing to compress to 3.9MB, the documents didn't look to sharp, I thought that it would be an issue but I thank God, for favour. I will suggest if you are having same challenges as I did, you can use CamScanner on Android play store, I found out about it after submitting mine with poor resolutions.
Thanks.



Update:
Passport Request : August 5, 2019
Submitted: August 6, 2019

Stevenssen:
Around April, it was like 50-50 approval and denial, now we see about 1 approval to 20 denials

You're right. Anyone that wants to apply now should better hold their horses till January but that doesn't mean that those that already applied have no hope.

Stevenssen:
Sorry. I would tell you to apply for your GCMS notes but that does not help these days.
I think CIC have probably reached a kind of quota for the year.
In my opinion, don't reapply this year.

What are you talking about quota? People are getting visa everyday.

PPR Guys!!!

Hello Oganammuo,

All IMM forms can be found on cic.gc.ca. However, use the link below to assess the IMM Form page directly. Only download what is applicable to you. Also, ensure your system has Adobe Reader 11 or Acrobat to be able to download, save, and fill the forms before print out.

https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/student.asp?countrySelect=NG#applications

Unlike online, paper route permits you to do your biometrics on same day prior after submitting. Since you travelling from afar, just sacrifice 2 - 3 days though Abuja VFS doesn't witness same rush as Lagos VFS. But at most, sacrifice 2 days for it.

As it stands, you might not be required to do another biometrics since you've done one in 2017. Though the 10yrs biometrics validity began in July 31, 2018, some re-application applicants during same year as you didn't undergo a fresh biometrics while some did. Based on my recent observation, you're likely not to undergo one again. However, please us updated.

To your last question, the special thing is to make prayer the cover page of your application.

Good luck!

I am planning to reapply for visa via paper route am I doing another biometrics after submitting my documents.

Biometrics is valid for 10 years. I got denied in 2016. Reapplied this year, didn't do biometrics again.

Ginaruby:
Please how can i know the start and end date of my program in University Of Regina

My brother my brother... Same here. University of Regina..

Which program are you going for?

Folmid:
APPROVAL ALERT @ 1.49PM.

Let me use this opportunity to say a big thank you to all the contributors in this forum and my short prayer is whatever that is saying NO and NO to the YES of GOD in our endeavors shall be frustrated IJN.

This platform gave me JOB in 2008 and now a supernatural breakthrough in my life.. May God bless the founder of this platform.

My advise to all Canadian student VISA seekers should just read some of the threads as i read thread 16 from pali to pali(2x) and then back it up with prayers. No need to waste your money to hire agents as all what you need is in your "sokoto" here.

Do you know that "You will never know everything about something; just take that bold step and start while increasing your knowledge in that area." Forward ever and it will surely end in praises.

Awesome!!!

Dkberen:
Next week would be late as I wouldn't be in the country at that time.

OK.. Sorry about that. Have you tried IOM Abuja?

Dkberen:
Hi, is this date still available? I would really appreciate it if you can give me the date as I won't be in the country for some months to complete mine and I have a very tight deadline for my application

Why not try IOM? You can get appointment by next week, I just did.

Maprince4:
Please can you mail me the agent that helped u with application process with his number on princeleke48@gmail.com thanks

I would have loved to drop the link to his website here but I guess I'm not permitted to do such due to the security concerns. Scammers everywhere let's be careful.

Cjleks:
where is your visa office?

Online application.

Glasses1:
Hello house... I submitted my visa application last week and next day got an email to go for Biometrics... is that the norm and do I need to get it done asap or I can do it after a week? Might need to raise some cash..

Yes that's the norm and you are supposed to have cash in place for all these things to come.

peaceful22:
@Dbnagato please tell us about your application.

I must say, the timeline is superb.

Well, I applied in 2016 and got refused due to insufficient funds. So I deferred my admission and waited till when everything would be in place financially. I'm taking Computer Science B.Sc. Within my wait period I have taken Computer Science programs both online and in person, I've also taken internships in Web Development, I included all these in my SOP with Solid proof and by God's grace finances are now available and very stable. My agent worked at the Immigration office in lagos for 10 years before retiring to start his Visa Consultation Firm, so he is really skilled, he has very good success rate. He Scrutinized my application thoroughly. It's all good. Also believe God and be hopeful, don't let the rate of denial scare you for a second, just believe that your case is different. Also prepare to receive refusal in good faith should it come, at the end of the day, what could be the worst?

[quote author=UrsyBC post=84295161][/quote]You're right. I also have a big gap in my educational history, but I was able to Iron it out in my SOP. Just got a medical request yesterday.

Cjleks:
Ok. Congratulations to you. All the best.

Thanks..
Booking a medical appointment is really tough. Spaces for next week are all filled up.

Cjleks:
When are you to resume?

I have the option of Winter 2020 (Jan) or May 2020
