barrydee:


Congrats bro
Did you apply this year or last year?

Yes. In March.

Baggiomarrio:
to me I think tenni yf is ok . It a decision we have to reach unanimously, so everyone have to point out one , so the most picked wins

Yes Tennie yf is good

This is just to encourage everyone waiting, never to give up.
I found out yesterday night that I have been approved since 4th of May. Updated my details (thanks to the link I got here) yesterday and I got it today.

TennieYF:
This is just a build up on what you typed. We can still await further input before we get a final draft.


Good day,
I hope this meets you well.
With careful writing, we wish to thank the humble Nation of Canada for giving us the privilege and opportunity to gain knowledge in Canada through quality education. This has helped to build a synergy between both countries(Nigeria and Canada). The economy of Canada has become a fast growing one, competing with other great nations of the world.

However, recently we have noticed prolonged delays in study permits applications for prospective Nigerian students.
We understand that the COVID-19 has had an impact in processing times but in comparison with our counterparts from other countries, applications from Nigeria have been extraordinarily slow and prolonged.
Some applications are as old as 8 months and a lot of pending applications are within 3-6 months.
Recently, the NIGERIAN student Express scheme (NSE) was established to help speed up processing times to 20 days for students who could meet certain criteria.
This however is not this case because even after going through NSE the applications still take an average of 2-3 months before decisions are made.

The rate at which students now defer admissions is rampant and this is due to the delay in getting application decisions.
This deferment has put in dent in their plans as they already have commitments based on the time they expect to return home after study to impact lives, and to develop the growing society and help fight economic fall.
The long processing has made a lot to extend visions and goals.

Recently, we see other applications from other countries getting replies in 20days or even less than that.
We believe international students are part of the growth of Canada so we wish the authorities reconsider our processing time and help speed up the application processes.
Thank you and God bless.

April Applicants, it's not too early to give our Thanksgiving for a speedy response. All things are working together for our good.

For older applicants, tomorrow opens a new dawn of unending joy, unexpected miracles and favour. Amen!

Meeny123:
Hello guys, I thought to chip this in. If your SOWP is approved, you do not need an authorisation letter. Students, open work permits are among people who can travel to Canada. I arrived at the end of March without an authorisation letter. My Wife is the student, I have an open work permit.

I sent you a mail. Please respond.

Onaya:
That is exactly what I have been trying to explain to them here. They're really very annoying.

Wow...you should have your copy. Please send a message.

oyibo4real:


I tell you this is very annoying, glad am not the only one that felt this way. Yet to understand why Nigerians are being treated this way by IRCC? Hmmmm

No more different processing time for now. Processing time for all countries is 12weeks for now.

I hope this change brings speedy response for older applicants.

April applicants...let's get in here for Thanksgiving. We declare favour and grace on our applications this week.

For older applicants, speedy response and PPR this week. Amen.

Cos I am a banker and I know on no account should a customer account info be divulged to a third party

Please note that embassies confirm authenticity of an account statement because all banks have a unit in charge of third party confirmation.
You can inquire further from your bank. A lot of customers' bvn have been blacklisted and banking relationship severed because of forged statement of account.

Dukealara:
Good morning..urgent request!

Do I have to click on confirm appointment link in the appointment confirmation mail before going for biometric or it's after I am done.

I later realized I don't need to...it will be updated automatically.

Also, if you didn't or couldn't make copy of your bio data page. There's a provision for you inside the VAC. Don't let all those guys outside scam you that they only collect coloured copies of your passport data page.

Good morning..urgent request!

Do I have to click on confirm appointment link in the appointment confirmation mail before going for biometric or it's after I am done.

[quote author=KejiA post=101170745]Hello everyone,
I have been a silent reader.
I just got my ppr today.
My application was a very funny one, I submitted in January this year and I had no request letter neither did my eligibility review change until I got my passport request today. I was worried and had so much anxiety everytime that I had to stop coming on here because it felt overwhelming for me.
My timeline goes like this:
Submitted - January 27th
Confirmation- January 28th

Congratulations.....

tracy0803409:

MsJanez01:


Yes you can. I know someone who fixed a month before submission and got her visa approved. Though she submitted MBS showing source of funds

Thank you.

Please, can I use fixed deposit to support my proof of funds and how long do I have to wait before I can use the certificate for my application?

mobbwc:
Hello house,

I am sorry for the quite unrelated post/question, I was unable to get a quick answer on the IELTS room.

I wish to take the IELTS exam in Lagos, I heard some centers do not give headsets for Listening but instead play the Listening test with a loudspeaker.

I will be happy if anyone who wrote with IDP/MOD (Not British Council) tells me what center they wrote and were given a headset. I am considering writing at the UNILAG center, So if anyone wrote there please advise otherwise let me know alternatives.

Thank you

I wrote mine with IDP at MOD Towers in Yaba(CBT) and headset was provided.

marcelonwa:


Didn’t u read the part they said u have to apply for a new student permit application with the DLI letter of admission?

This is only done if you do not have a study permit yet which means that you are still outside Canada with an LOI since study permit is only issued at POE.
Please read further. You don't know who is depending on this kind of info to make decision.

Breaking News : Canada Study Permit

Now, students will not be able to change the DLI/Institute after study visa approval.

Student has to lodge a fresh application for new DLI.

To know more about this information
click on below link :

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/change-schools.html

According to the link above, they can change school once they have their study permit.

That page was last modified 12th of March.
So, it's not a breaking news.

shupy:
just pay the required deposit. The amount paid doesn't determine the outcome of your application.

Thank you for this

Please, did anyone apply to Trent University for Fall 2021 and has gotten admission.

Bakrabas:



I did but the reply I got was that I'm not verified

Try the verification link again using opera mini at midnight and stay close to your mail. Immediately it drops, verify using same opera mini and you should be fine.

Note: I tried this several times too before it eventually works.
