Gurus in the house,
Firstly I want to appreciate your effort for the support you have been rendering to folks here....much appreciated.
Please I need help on behalf of a friend. The previous passport he had has a mistake in his date of birth which he did not bother to correct at the time. He also used the passport to travel to Russia and came back. Now in applying for admission to Canada, his transcript carried his real date of birth so he had to correct the date of birth and one of his three names in a new passport at Abuja for 180k . The challenge now is in applying for study permit, he is expected to also attached the old passport which will show a different date of birth as well as having one of his name different. Also because he has applied for US visa with the old passport, it might be misrepresentation to say he has not traveled before to avoid attaching the old passport knowing fully well Canada and US share info.
what do you suggest he do as a way of solution to this problem? thanks in advance. cc: justwise,Qudkom,Austacus, JustMellow, makano,042viber12,frankrobbn1 |

OK thanks. For the first bank are you able to view it online? Somehow I prefer first bank. bendo75: It’s not like I-Invest app. On the Gtb online banking platform, you can only view your tb investments and nothing more. If you want to invest or terminate you have to talk to your account officer and he or she will carry it out. I have been in tb for many years and I have never visited my banks. I always send emails with an attached pdf file of official letter/instructions to my account officer. I use Gtb and first bank and it’s pretty simple. Now Gtb often because my 3 account officers are very reliable. |

Don't keep a guy waiting that long for a response to his proposal, you might loose him! Do you think you're indispensable? Amiablekikzy: Good Afternoon
I have a guy who has proposed marriage to me for a while now, I told him to give me time to think. Now have decided to give him a positive answer on his birthday which is coming up in the last week of April. He will be 30 years old.
I want to do something really romantic for him on that day, then later in the day give him my answer. Basically, I just want to make his 30th birthday very memorable.
Pls kindly give me birthday ideas. Thanks in advance

He made the move before she did not accept. Not every body has courage to try rejection twice! She was the one that rejected so she can go back to accept 20yrs after! Rosarie: He is not into you. He knows ur flaws and good sides. He has choosen it'ss best he remains friends cos he can not marry you. If not he would have long made the move. If u date him;u will not be happy cos it will be a one sided thing. Some relationship are best left the way they are |
Romance › Re: Should I Make A Move On My Best Friend ? by DMerciful(m): 3:10pm On Apr 06, 2019 |
Now you know how it feels to contemplate rejection! When he was wooing you in the past did you know what he went through? Be courageous and shoot your shot and if he says no, then just like before, the friendship continues! If it did not crash when he made the move ,why should it crash when you make the move? lilbabe79: Hi I have this male friend I’ve known for almost 20 years. He courted me back in the days but I was not available so we remained friends so far. Life keeps pulling us apart and bringing us closer (geographically). He now lives on the other side of the world but we cal each other all the time. He’s my best friend, support and confident. He knows everything about me and I about him. We talk a lot, laugh to the same things etc.
We stayed at each other’s place multiple times over the years, even sharing a bed now and there but he never tried anything
Now we are both 40 with a few failed relationships under our belt. He keeps telling me how he wants to settle and start a family. We talk a lot about the fact that the best way to go is marry your best friend, someone you really know and so on.
I have this odd feeling that he’s trying to test the waters with me but he never says anything definitive
I’m really wondering if I should make the first move and tell him we should give it a try. I’ve never done such thing in my life and I’m afraid he would say no. If he does, our friendship would probably take a hit.
What do you suggest ? |

You pushed the limits! You came, you saw and through Gods grace you conquered! Keep up this fighting spirit and absolutely nothing can stop you! Austacus: Here’s my application Imm form (I included my bro that stays in Winnipeg...His home address and place of work in the imm form and his office role). Algonquin College Environmental management and assessment with a coop work permit I year program Pgd First-term tuition fee paid
Intl passport (no travel history) Statement of result (2:2) Transcript Date of birth certificate LOE Letterhead letter from my dad’s business. I told him to write I am “assisting in the family business” because I don’t have payslip or salary whatsoever as proof
Sponsor (father) CAC Sponsorship letter Account statements Fixed deposit Houses or Landed properties Marriage certificate (mom and dad) Family pics <me, mom, dad, godfather and godmother then one white oyinbo man (I was still a baby, we no get family pic for my pman house) PCC (Police character certificate) though it’s not mandatory for study visa please add it if you can.
My first application
The intellectual work started from the day I got my first Gcms notes
I ordered 3 Gcms notes.
The VO edit tire looking for every loophole to bring me down in my Gcms. My problem started with my sponsorship letter cause my dad made it straightforward. I didn’t know he has to state the amount he’s committing to my education. They even wanted to use work permit against me thinking I deliberately chose the course cause of the work requirement.
My dad fixed deposit put me in a big mess... dem no recognize that thing at all. I had to send my own account statement after my third Gcms note before I tackled first and second Gcms notes.
They also wanted to use travel history against me.
Last week I contacted about 150 MPs in Canada (I told myself even if nah one person answer me) About 15 responded back (with stories that you’re not a constituent in the riding blah blah blah) the MP is my school riding just do like person wey go help me, I fill a form and all, then after everything she withdraws from it with stories. Only 1 was helpful. He looked at my file and told me wassup. He told me what the VO wrote on my file with a biro. I don’t know how he did it though it took him two days to respond back to me. Nah there he stops to respond to me cause he said he can’t go deep on my file for privacy reasons. And he wishes me good luck. Such a nice man. Ahmed Hussein used one of the MP to get back to me. (Is response wasn’t helpful at all) Because the MP promised me that he going to talk to Ahmed Hussein on my behalf during their meeting... surprisingly this Ahmed Hussein tell the man he’s aware of my case that he got my message so so so date and time (they don’t joke with records) I can’t even remember the day I sent it to him but he was so accurate. He told his colleague (MP) stories to tell me. (normal immigration stories). The thing tire me. Then the MP wished me good luck.
Earlier this year I contacted an immigration lawyer in Canada (he said he can’t do anything until they refused my visa). They stored my names and all for records reason
They did a foss check on my brother in Winnipeg I would advise you guys not to mention your sibling or family member in Canada cause it can be used against you or slow your application
That's all I can say now. ( I did a lot of research in this Canada study visa) if I show you my PC and phone tabs, you will shake your head. Good luck to all the visa hopefuls.
Please to those that sent me a pm, I would be responding to only May, June and July buddies.
I also contacted one retired CIC VO in quora. He answered me but he's very very diplomatic. He didn't say anything that makes sense to me e tire me
Thanks to Oga frank I haven't finished reading all your post since I joined the thread last year June. Thanks to my name sake Austinpee I am still reading lol
Another tip, if your sponsor has too many dependants, please reduce it in your affidavits of supports. And be careful while listing all your siblings in your imm form in case you omitted their names in dependants (affidavits if means of support) especially if they are still under your parent.
Bless you |

Applied for visitor visa in 2017 however this is first time for study permit but used same biometrics. Resumption is May 2019. Douglas College in British Columbia is the school! Anybody going to Vancouver here? Let's connect sillysassysally: TRV processing time update 05/04/2019
We now have a sample of 30 hopefuls!
I would encourage those that have applied this year to share their timeline (with details such as; Application Route, whether you're a new or re-applicant, School Resumption Date, Application Date, Biometrics Request Date, Biometrics Done Date, Medical Request, Medicals Done, Medicals Passed, PPR or the Current Status of your application). If you don't have all this information, you can just share the ones that you have and update the rest as you receive it. This information would help us study or attempt to establish a pattern to how CIC operates. (Please note that the calculated estimates are just averages based on the little sample we have. Your processing time may be faster or slower than the average)
For those that have already submitted their timeline, kindly share if you are a new applicant or a re-applicant. Also, please share when you are expected to resume school. This would help us understand if there is a relationship between processing time and resumption date. (Cc Dedecoder, Godatwork23, Oni2019, Yacha77, Dmerciful, docsaj, Klem28, Trishaben, Omarzx, ify85, Samolala2019, umulobi, Tlontin)
Finally, If there is anything you think i should add to the data or calculate from the data or if there is a better way you think I can present the data, I am always open to suggestions. |

I actually went to anifowoshe on Wednesday. The person I met just like me at first sight and he told me the secret then he prayed for me and wish me good luck. I may go back there and tell him thank you.
This visa suffered me. The day I did my biometrics, VAC was still working till 8 pm that day, I left home around 7 and left VAC 7 pm. I was sleeping on steering... I almost had an accident that very day but God came through for me. So whenever I remember that day and imagine why my visa is still pending, tears will drop from my eyes and I will look up to God.
I contacted more than 150 MPs (senators) in Canada then on Wednesday I gathers mind and drive straight to Anifowoshe.
I was in the movies watching “Hotel Mumbai” as soon as they finished the movie, I saw the alert in my email address.
I will recommend you guys to watch that movie and thank me later.
God is indeed faithful Nara ekele chineke. May June July, don’t lose up, your visa is sooner. Don’t forget to hit my pm.
God bless everyone that is reading this my success story. Whatever you ask from God, don’t give up, he knows your worries. He will answer your prayer.
“When God wants you to grow, he makes you uncomfortable”
