Hello Nairalanders,

Let go of your concerns, then you will know that I am God, I rule the nations, I rule the earth. (Psalm 46 vs 10).
Knowing God's power and authority, knowing that He will receive honor no matter what can quiet the anxiety and concerns you face.
Every time you feel concerned, remember that He is God who loves you and has the power and authority over whatever is bothering you.

Let go of your concerns, be calm, know Him, Praise him. Be joyful no matter what.

I pray that all your heart desires for Canada Study TRV's be answered in Jesus mighty name.

Amen.

goingforward.

Thank you boss, I applied for Undergraduate degree .

Anfieldboss:
UP always have funny requirements, I was told to go and do Honours with my BEng Electrical Engineering degree, after been evaluated by SAQA as NQF Level 8, meanwhile WITS and UKZN offered me admission for Masters that same year.

I'll advise you try another school.

Hi guys , has anyone applied for Foreign Conditional Exemption Certificate before ?? I wonder if anyone can put me through the process. I applied for an admission at the University of pretoria but they asked me for this certificate.

Hi, I've tried to send you a Direct message ..

Agbons101:
mine was very long too...so i decided to put the first page and followed up with the pages with the opening month balance for the first 3months and then included the remaining detailed 3months.

Yes oo Mr Frank .. I intend to remove some pages from the 3 months SOA... Lol. I have 140 pages of SOA alone .

Frankrobbn1:
Then go ahead and submit the 3 months SOA, it's also acceptable!. Wait a minute, is it the 3 months SOA that you intend removing some pages? If yes, I don't buy the idea of you doing such.

I even printed 3 months , not 4 months.

Frankrobbn1:
Instead of removing some pages from the SOA, why not print a 4 months bank statement, at least this will reduce the pages and also show consistent inflow and outflow of funds with available balance.

Hi Guys ! Good morning .. Please is it advisable to remove some pages of your SOA if the pages are too much to compress ??

Thanks .. I've thought about it too

123abcclown:
Honestly, I wouldn't be sure how to advice you but what I did was that I uploaded just 7pages out of my sponsor's 27 pages. Crazy but I felt that if they needed the full document, they will ask. Plus I created a page before the statement of account to explain what I was going to do and why.

That was how I uploaded my sponsor's personal SOA, his company SOA and my SOA.

I wouldn't be sure it works, but I did what I did

Anyone who submitted an online application with over 140 pages of SOA .. How did you compress to make it 4MB please ?

Congrats

Awuuga:

Hi guys , has anyone applied for Foreign Conditional Exemption Certificate before ?? I wonder if anyone can put me through the process.

Hi ! Did you apply for the Foreign Conditional Exemption Certificate before you were considered for Admission ?

drmorphine:
Hi house, I am new here. I got an admission to study for my PhD in University of Pretoria beginning next year. Though, I have received the admission letter from the university and gotten the police clearance, yellow card, I am yet to pay for my medical insurance and sort my accommodation stuffs out. May I also add that my PhD would be self sponsored as for now and most likely, most of my research would be done here in Nigeria. Many of my folks studying in SA assured me that I would definitely be able to secure funding in my 2nd year. However, I have been able to raise close to a million naira in my bank asides flight ticket booking.

In the light of the above,
1. I would like to know if anyone can assist me with affordable accommodation close to the university as staying in the University hostels would be too expensive.
2. Would a million naira be sufficient for me to push through my visa application and sustain my living in SA for a period of 6-7months? I would still be raking in an estimate of a steady 150k monthly income in Nigeria when I leave.
3. What are my chances of getting my student visa this year provided I make my application before the end of November.

I crave your magnanimity in giving me a robust contribution to my enquiries and requests.

Thank you and God bless.

take it easy bro... pls

Linzo:
Please forget this order GCMS and brainstorm whàt next and how to package the next application. This guys are just purposely refusing Nigerians Visa and you're their asking him to order GMCS, please if you don't have any comment keep mute

Yes, a week ago is still valid ... Go ahead and use it .. Good luck .

thompson1510:
My Ogas in the house, I am about to apply online for my Visa but my sponsor printed his statement of account like a week ago, I hope I can still use it? Am going to post my profile very soon for the gurus in the house to tell me what to still add or remove.

Wanted to apply through paper route before but when I realized those Kenyans VOs are not smiling, had to change my mind.

Happy Sunday family.

Hi bro.. Your supporting documents such as Work related documents, Educational documents, proof of relationship with my sponsor (brother), Birth certificate, etc. are to be uploaded in the client information section .

Good luck .

Pstcozzy:
Hello guys, greetings to you all.
I just recently started my online study permit/ Visa application to Canada.

I have uploaded some of the required documents such as the IMM1294e, IMM5645 family information, IMM 5257 forms, Passport documents with scanned data page and other stamps and visas pages, Digital photo, University letter of acceptance. I am yet to scan the the proof of means of Financial Support and Client Information but I have them and will upload them today.

My concern now is, there is no column to upload my supporting documents such as Work related documents, Educational documents, proof of relationship with my sponsor (brother), Birth certificate, etc.

Anyone who has successfully passed this stage or have knowledge on what I should do, should please come to my aid. I really want to submit this application by the close of this week.

I have seen how you guys operate as a family here and help each other, 'so make una help una brother, I beg.'

Thanks and God bless you all.

Hello my brothers and Sisters..

Hi guys... I'm reapplying , do I need to put in my UCI number ?

Thanks , I applied for Agribusiness and it is actually an UG course. Thanks for your input.

jandj:
Bros,

1)What course did u apply for? And what's it's relationship with your UG course? What's it's relationship with your employment over the years? Is there any progression? If it's different, explain this very well in your SOP.

2) proof your home ties with Nigeria. You applied in Dubai. You have to explain what you are doing at Dubai and the plans you have to come back to Nigeria.

Good luck as u re-apply.

I applied July 21st

Hi Guys ! I just received 32 pages of my GCMS notes... Kinda hard to know which part to focus on... Anyway, Congrats to all the TRV approvals yesterday, today is another day and I pray great things will happen to those expecting too.

I'm quite interested in this topic too.

thompson4real:
Hello house �, how do someone who does not have a company employment letter. Just person local business that is not registered. What are we going to show to the Visa Officers for a long time being out of secondary education.

$100/hour for private consultation .. That is way too small .. Let's charge $300/hour . But you are right jawe , open consultation is super free at the risk of being attacked by tensed up applicants..

galala123:
Private consultation is $100/hour with assurance of politically correct responses. Open consultation is free at the risk of being attacked by tensed up applicants.
