Hello everyone. I will like to know of credible travel agents. I learnt booking through them is usually cheaper compared to booking directly from the airline website

Thanks

Hello My People,I received my approved TRV/stamped passport today at VFS office,Lekki,Lagos.

I've been a quiet follower of this thread.I stumbled on it after submitting my study permit application.I must confess some assertions made on this forum made me want to lose confidence in my application and made me leave my fate in the hands of Jehovah as my only Advocate.For instance,a member of this forum stated education loan cannot fly and while another member affirmed that Fixed Deposit Certificates as proof of funds is a no-no.

My Timeline
Paper application at VFS Lekki Lagos.... 18th April,2018
Linked my application online....5th May,2018
Medical Call....8th May,2018
Medical Done.... 9th May 2018
Medical updated as passed on my online account...18th May,2018
Contacted by my school (UBC) to give consent to confirm my acceptance and release my personal details(student number,date of birth,program,program start and end dates,etc) to CIC....8th June 2018....I consented immediately.
My online account started reading Account/Profile Updated..... 21st June 2018
Within minutes,my online account started reading 'New Message' (no longer Account/Profile Updated).... 21st June,2018
Yet and even uptil now my online account was and is still reading 'Your application is in progress','we are reviewing whether you meet eligibility requirements....We are processing your background check' (even after collecting my stamped passport...this shows the website is having issues).Even the 'new message' does not open for me to see the details.
Contacted by VFS to pick up my processed passport at Lekki.....25th June,2018
Visited VFS to pick up my approved TRV/Stamped passport.... 26th June,2018.

To all TRV hopefulls,it will end in praise.Keep on keeping on!!!Now i can sleep very well and plan ahead...What a big relief!!!

dubaiboy1,

Your uncle needs an affidavit of support, attesting that he will incur all cost during your stay in Canada, that he is fully aware of your travelling to Canada for studies, that he will make sure that funds will be made available for you during subsequent years of study, stating his relationship with you (applicant) etc... this affidavit of support will be stamped and signed by a notary public officer or commissioner of oaths in a federal high court, while your uncle signs as the deponent. It's very crucial you include it with your application.

Guys, I saw something here about a sworn affidavit of sponsorship.. What is a sworn affidavit of sponsorship and what details must it entails ? Do I need one if my Uncle is my sponsor ? He has given me a letter to take responsibility of my study cost.... Enlighten me on this one guys...


Thank you.......

Thank you and God bless

Frankrobbn1:
It's not important to do that on your SOP. The IMM1294 study permit application form is the best place to state the refusal.

All the best!

Okay, done

Linzo:
Just PM me

Thank you, your email please

Linzo:
Send it

Please guys, I have just finished writing my SOP and damn, it is so long ... I wouldn't mind if anyone can take a look for me .

Thank you.

Hi guys, when Writing an SOP.. Is it important to state that you've been denied a study permit before ?? I was denied in 2013 ...

Please kindly treat as Urgent

15 years old ?? Check CIC website .. I'm sure you will find enough information pertaining to what you can do about an application for a Minor .

pascal2young:
Good day ogas at the top. My younger bro got admitted to Memorial University for a Bsc programme but he is a minor(15). Please I need advice towards his visa application as pertaining to Guardian...

Dalhousie UG ... My application took 12 days.

Josh1996:
Please to those who got admitted to Dalhousie University and University of Ottawa. Please how long does it take to get a response to your admission application.
Thanks

You should contact the school.

Linzo:
Hello house, please someone should clarify me in this issue. I got my offer letter from Brandon university for an undergraduate program in Economics but the offer letter just stated 4- years bachelor of Art without mentioning my program which is Economics. Note I studied banking and finance in my diploma.
Won't this pose a problem with VO in trying to know the exact program I'm going for considering the fact economics wasn't mentioned in the offer letter and my previous study was banking and finance?
I'm thinking of contacting the school and ask for a new offer letter or for them to make a change with the one issued to me. Is the decision to contact the school a wise one?

You don't need a year Statement ... Just 4 months.

123abcclown:
I was honestly going to leave out my own SOA. I’d take this as the lord speaking. Lol

Someone mentioned to me that Digital SOA are not signed and stamped and so are not accepted for Visa application. How true is this?

I intend to use the digital copy instead of the hard paper copy as my account is very busy. I’m sure my 1 year Statement account won’t have less than 1,000 transactions (I don’t know how many pages that will be and how I’d compress it into a legible scan).

Many thanks.

Ahaha.... Why did you come at him/her like that..... Lmao. ***** Funny though **

Geenosko:
Sorry o
But this is the height of unseriousness.

Some should recommend a career path for you on a public forum

Thank you .. Also, do you have any idea if a photocopy of the CAC is good enough as part of my Sponsor's document ?

olugere:
Good Dubaiboy1,

You need 1294, IMM5707 if you have children and wife?

Check your admission letter ...You will see the tuition fee for your course of study , Health Insurance , Accommodation and other bill... Sum it up and add an additional CAD10K.. The total will be the amount you must have for your first year of study.


I stand to be corrected though .

yeahkim:
University of Ottawa and the tuition is about cad19k

Good day guys ,

So under the document check list form.. I found the following :

IMM 1294 form ( Application for study permit made outide of Canada )

Family form IMM5707

Statutory Declaration of Common-law Union ( IMM5409 )

Use of Representative ( IMM 5476 )

Authority to release personal information to a designated individual ( IMM 5475 )

Custodianship Declaration for minors studying in Canada ( IMM 5646 )


BUT my question is Do I need to submit all these forms ? The only form applicable to me is the IMM 1294 and the family form . What do I do with the rest ?


Also, I can't seem to find the IMM 5475 anywhere on the CIC website .


Thank you for your help .

For Masters or UG ?

vtoluwalope:

dozieihems:
Good morning all I have been following this thread for sometimes now I really appreciate everyone I have this advice that kept me thinking since yesterday I want to share it with u guys.I work in a reputable company my bank transfer is 120k a month after loan and tax deduction.Am married with two kids I want to apply for my masters in Canada in mind of bringing my family over during my program.My friend in UK adviced me yesterday that I shld not travel to Canada that things are hard there,that it will make me to start afresh.That I may find it difficult even after my masters to get a good job to sponsor my family over there. Please advice a brother so I will not make a decision that I will regret all my life

Who is in Halifax, NS please ?

Okay, thank you

makano:
Ita nt a compulsory documents. We have seen peeps that have gotten their TRV without submitting either transcript or Waec result. Waec nd transcript are compulsory documents when applying to a school for post graduate degree..

It wasn't Masters, it was an UG... I applied to Dal 2 weeks ago and I've been accepted. So, I don't necessarily need my WAEC result for my TRV application ?

makano:
When u were applying to ur school for masters, what WAEC result dis u use? Use dt one for ur Student permit, although WAEC isn't a compulsory document for applying for TRV.

Good morning guys ... I pray all our prayers for TRV approval be answered . Pls I have a question to ask :

If I want to apply for a study permit,can I use a computer printed WAEC result or it is necessary to be the original issued from WAEC?

Thank you in advance...

Are you considering saying NO ?? Don't do it , just be straight forward with your application and make sure you tackle the reasons why you were refused in the first place... My points though, I stand to be corrected.

Good luck.

goodnews1111:
