Thank you @Okukuone for your response

Pls I have one issue that I need someone to help me address

Ok I and my spouse will be one month old in marriage ( legally) when I will be applying for my study permit. I will be coming first then I will apply for him later

he will be one to pay for my first semester tuition fee and also show proof of fund for the remaining fee and living expenses.

Now I'm hearing it will raise a red flag if I said I'm working but can't provide my own bank statement or showing i paid my school fees by myself. And submitted marriage certificate of 1 month will look like an arrangee stuff

Now I'm confused o

Someone should helep me
I applied 3 months after our wedding and application was approved in like 4 weeks.

Just provide enough relationship evidences.

Pls can someone help me out on this.

My wife have up to 30th of this month to submit passport to VFS.
She booked appointment with vfs abuja (but did biometric in lagos) and they are giving her 20th of this month and there is no account number to pay the transmission fee. Also the date they gave her is too far. Don't know what to do. There are lots of complaints about unnecessary delay at lagos vfs.
Can she just submit in person at Lagos . Is it allowed.
Yes, you can submit in person at Lagos VFS. I submitted in person 2 days ago!
I don’t really know anything about the delays tho.

If all POF you have is the Fixed Deposit, then, No. However, if you have other funds somewhere that you also want to add as your POF, then you have to ask for mybankstatement from the bank that have the additional funds.

Goodluck!
Thank you so much for the prompt response.

Yes, the fixed deposit is all the POF I have.

Good Afternoon Everyone,

Kindly advise me on this.

I’m submitting my SOWP soon, and I’d be using a Fixed Deposit in my name as the POF. So the plan is to submit the Fixed Deposit Certificate and Reference Letter from the Bank.

Asides that 2 document, do I still need to submit Statement of Account?

All glory to God.

Applied November 30, 2022
Biometrics: December 2nd
Request for additional documents: 28th February
Medical request: 14th March
Medical done: 22nd March and updated to pass March 25th
Passport Request: 29th March, 2023. One day shy of four months 😩. Such a long wait.

I am currently pregnant and hoped to receive PPR before now so I can travel and give birth in Canada. Right now I’m so close to my due date and do not know how feasible it is to travel. Any suggestions will be appreciated. I am already stressed thinking of applying for visitor visa for my soon to arrive baby considering the overly lengthy processing times for visitor visa.

Documents submitted:
All IMM forms
International passport
Spouse Canada school documents
My educational certificates
Employment Letter and ID Card
Salary account of 1.2 million
Spouse CAC registration docs for home ties.
Letter of motivation
Pictures with my spouse, my parents and siblings
CAC document of my mother’s school for home ties

I wish everyone waiting all the best.
Wow
Congratulations

Good Evening House,

Please I’m about to apply for the SOWP, and I need y’all help to provide answers/advise to some of my questions below;

1. How much do you suggest one should have at minimum (naira) in the account for proof for fund?

2. In a situation where the fund would be gifted to me by a sponsor, do you advise I move the money in to my account and print the statement? How do I explain the lump sum?

3. Should I instead fix the money in fixed deposit or invest in mutual funds and submit the certificate as proof of fund?

4. Would Deed of Assignment for a landed property suffice as property documents/paper for proof of ties?

Thank you.
