I applied online and did biometric in January but since then no feedback.

Put all documents in word and save as PDF web publisher document, that way it's compressed with any online resources.
Qudkom:
Let me join this online/paper route argument. The whole argument about which is better or more effective is largely unnecessary. It doesn't matter if you use online or paper if you submit rubbish or fraudulent documents it's still going to be rejected. Also if your documents are out of place and you submit unnecessary supporting documents then it's still going to be the same outcome. What I can say is whenever you are submitting an application go straight to the point. If USA visa officers give you just a few minutes to talk. Why would you think this visa officers will take the whole day to verify your documents. I repeat go straight to the point.

1. You dont have to attach 8 property documents believe me 1 or 2 is sufficient. No VO cares about you having 10 properties. People say you need it for hometies but home tie isn't just finance it is also (Social, family, Personal Investments etc)

2. Your SOP doesn't have to be two pages 4 paragraphs answering key questions is enough ( introduction, why you chose the program and goals, why canada and conclusion is enough.)

3. Bank statements isn't always about the balance, inflow/outflow over 6 months says a lot about the sponsor.

4. Understand that your family composition is very important in your sponsors decision to sponsor you. I.e if your have 4 younger siblings and you submit an application the VO will want to know if your father can cope with the expenses, for those using extended family the VO wants to know the dependents of the extended family member I.e why does your uncle/aunt want to sponsor you dont they have kids of their own and expenses etc

5. Like I said earlier no unnecessary documents should be attached. GO STRAIGHT TO THE POINT.

6. If you are going to attach a document that can appear confusing try and write a short "statement of explanation" explaining to the vo what the document is all about. For example you are a member of an Agricultural investment company a short statement of explanation should clarify when and why you joined the association and what the returns from the association is used for. This statement should be attached just before the document and you should use it as many times as possible that way the VO can flow with you.

6. Lastly use spell check or any grammer check online to verify documents and for those who use online pdf compressors kindly note that not every online compressor is safe some store your data on their servers while the good ones delete them after you are done compressing. Googling the top 10 compressors will do.

P.s: this is my opinion on study visa applications. And for the newbies try reading from part 11 that way you can get a degree in handling canada study visa applications lol.

Email them and tell them your first language is English and all your learning was done in English, they should waive it for you! I did that for all my applications and was waived all the time!

I've done both and feel online is better and gives you better flexibility of attaching documents
JustMellow:
It seems my emphasis is incomprehensible, now let's do a little comparison:

Online application

1. Gather relevant documents
2. Scan
3. Compressing stage(which might take several and tedious minutes/hours without loosing its quality esp for first time applicants who might not be IT imbued)
4. Spend funds(if one's in no prossession of a scanner or system, then requires the urgency of a cyber cafe)
5. The merging of documents to fit respective columns
6. Compressing again to get the actual 4MB file size without loosing its original quality
7. Uploading stage which is the easiest
8. Biometrics request after couple of days
9. An applicant have to travel for biometrics if the applicant does not stay in Lagos or Abuja(the cost of transportation also becomes part of the stress to that spent in the cafe)

Paper Route

1. Gather relevant documents
2. Travel for submission if an applicant stays outside Lagos or Abuja
3. Do biometrics upon submission
4. Link paper to online

The point here am trying to bring out here is: why still want to go through sure stress and process given the development that Kenya is in charge of both online and paper application when an applicant can just go submit to the VAC office directly without incurring additional stress and expenses.

It might seem less stressful after the first time though but last last, we own our opinion and choice!

I'm not stressing about the money, I'm stressing on the possibility that rejection is still possible after medicals...Doesn't make sense!
I've done it btw
Bracha:
Oh boy go and do the medical and stop stressing yourself about the money. When you get the visa, will you even remember the money? smh

My younger bro got visa last yr without paying any fees cos University of Regina does not require any deposit to give you letter of acceptance. My own school requires mandatory deposit of $7200CAD so I paid. Do not do more than its required in terms of payment.
crusader6:
No changes has been made in documents requested..its we Nigerians that actually do submit those documents out of desperation and to be frank we cant tell if people are often accepted or reject on the account of those documents.I have read on this forum about a study permit granted with just 6.5mil SOA wit no asset ,No tuition payment or transfer of money into anyones account. On the Cic website I watched a video on directions on how to applied for a Study permit. On the video it was well instructed that no document which is unavailable on the document checklist should be submitted.But we do go on submitting uneccessary nd document uncalled for , probably these are the things that cause suspicions and delay. Its even on the website that tuition should not be paid before visa decision is made but we often neglect these things.

Its just like asking a dealer why is a Bentley more expensive than a Venza, are they not same means of transportation?

I guess maybe its due to the pace and patronage.

So the paper application submitted at VFS is sent to Kenya? So why is the online more expensive

The time you sit to scan and compress in addition to the funds spent in doing it given that same processing office which is Kenya now handle both route, so why the stress??

Feb 5th. Got medical request around Feb 19th
TheAfrikan:
Sorry, goodmorning.
When did you apply?
Travel › Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 15 by DMerciful(m): 11:19am On Mar 07, 2019
Feb 5th, online. Though I had applied sometime in 2017 for a visitor visa due to work related travel but was denied. I did gave my UCI hence biometrics was not required at this instance
Austacus:
That's why medical comes last and it's very rare to be refused a visa after medical request pops out.

This bullshit started late last year cause before, once you're called for medical then its a sure bet for approval.

In your case don't panic just keep praying, you have a higher chance of approval.

If I may ask, when did you apply for your visa?

Cause Nairobi office is now in charge of both online and paper route for a student visa.
