@newmusic, you need not mention that in your own case its not necessary, just focus on your initial program.

@epicwin, don't mind whoever said that, outside being married and having a good job, the next best possible way to show ties to your country is providing a good history. So that's very good.

@tolyem, CDHC will work with what is written your your offer of admission letter, if it states 6 months,they migth say you do not need a study permit, instead all you need is a TRV, that's why i said you should show details on advancement. The CGA path is good, besides all these short ptofessional courses are better appreciated than a masters degree, and your reason for choosing canada would be because its a great financial hub in the world. Besides you are married with kids so you have good ties.
With reference to the account using a company account isn't too fabulous like i stated earlier, there must be a reason why they are sponsoring, have the company write a detail letter on why they are engaing in that. Since you work there and its owned by your uncle, i suggest you show documents to establish that relationship between you and him.
It is at the discretion of the VO to request for tuition fee payment, so i wouldn't know. Some people pay full tuition while other don't pay a dime.

@ shavel,
Since its your dads company account, you are just fine. No hassles my brother you are good to go.

@tolyem,
The CDHC website states that a study permit will not be required for a study of six months or less, but there is also an exception where it states that If you plan to take a short course (less than six months in duration) at first, and then proceed to another study programme in Canada, you should apply for a Study Permit instead. But your intentions must be clearly stated, by indicating proposes course of study, college,affiliation with institution(transfering course credits). try and detail on advancement in your SOP, for instance if you going for a post graduate diploma in business, you could explain that you intend transfering credits and pursue a masters program in a particular institution after the initial study.
But please note, if considering this path, show a good steady source of income, because its like using one stone to kill two birds.
Cheers!

@shavel,
Chizquare is just rite,a company is an entity, with the aim of increasing its asset and reducing liability, and them sponsoring you is a lliability to them because they are making expenses not just for your tuition but total upkeep in canada, so there should be a substantial gain for them for taking such action in the long run, For a comapny to be sponsoring you there must be a good reason attached to that. So chizquare is rigth, a normal account would have been preferable. And besides providing a company account means you need many documentations of the company attached to your application.
If its your dad's company or immediate familys', then you are just fine.
Your pick though.
Travel / Re: Travelling To Canada by eky102: 4:24pm On Jul 05, 2011
@ shavel, there is no such thing as a minimum amount in your account. If cdhc wanted to see just that i guess they would probably ask for 1 month statement. They work with history, that's why they request for a 6 months statement. The main value in your statement is your total credit and total debit, which is seen just above your closing balance. So an account with a total debit of 5 million and a closing balance of 1-2 million is just fine.
About having access to your account, all banks have a protocol and will never ever share a customers details with anybody,the best cdhc will do is to scan the documents to the bank, for verification. Some banks migth choose to call the account owner for autorization while some won't.
Hope that helps !! Cheers

@ new acca,

That's a long one, thanks for the update though, please try and remove your mindset from denial, cause that's not your portion. You did very well in your interview, and you couldnt have done better. Just be positive and you will get a positive outcome soonest.
All is well my brother, all is well.

@vking
You probably did not digest my fomer post properly, did not mention anything about being denied. What i said was that i have actually seen people who i tott perhaps did not stand a chance get their visa. So in the world of CDHC anything is possible, the Phd route is also good, but i will advice you explore all possible options, so you don't put all eggs in a basket.

@ Epicwin.
With all you mentioned i think you are good to go, but like i always say, this is just my opinion, there is no particular pattern for issuing visas, every application is considered individually. So what works for Mr A migth not necessaryly work for Mr B. But remember to seal them up in prayers.
Cheers!

All the Best.

@ vkings,
Sorry this is coming late An Msc in oil and Gas eengineering in Uk is really a Blow, am still wondering why you want to change career path,becasue your present one is very good, anyway its your pick rigth, my best advice is applying for MBA in memorial, that puts you on the edge and makes your SOP less difficult they have an MBA program in oil and gas engineering also(a lot of cash though), this is the best route i can think of now because an MBA program is not limited to any profession . In the line of CDHC anything is possible,trust me, i have seen people that you won't believe had a chance get their Visa, guess that's where God sets in. You can start application to memorial now. You can drop your email so we talk better.
Cheers!

@ Vkings,
Offcourse there is nothing wrong in having two masters degree, although not really Nigeria inclined but many people abroad do. You should just be able to convince the VO why you are embarking on the master program(by probably explaining a deficiency of your former degree). You have to construct a great SOP to that effect, that will depend on whether your prospective Msc is related to the former one.
But ideally if a may ask why do you want to pursue another masters degree. With a masters degree you should be able to get something doing here in Nigeria,except you don't want to work here. Give more details on your fomer masters course and the one you intend to pursue. Then we can lay more emphasis. Cheers!!

@newacca, interview invitation means there is a clearification they would like you to give in person(in form of convincing them on a doubt). Going for medicals means, your application has a very positive outcome and the only thing standing between you and that is your medical results. So please it is very normal to go for interview before medicals. Cheers.

@chisqaure,
Its really surprising that your application spent a whole 9 weeks and the only thing that was altered was your bank draft, obietrix has said it all, you should just give them some time they will most likely get back to you soon. especially now that they are hinted on your file. Don't Give Up!

@obietrix,
Canada and US have completely different systems, Schools in US will issue you a form-i20 upon admission, which you will use to apply for your visa. Verification of documents don't take time because initially the schools will ask for bank statements and other documents and verify them before issueing you form i-20, so the embassy doesn't have too much work to do. You do all registerations on the US embassy website, and you are given an interview date(which is the toughest part because it last for very few minutes and what they know how to do best is to deny). I think canada is still very fair, cus they issue visas well compared to US, that explains why they have more application,and they share thesame boarders, so people prefer the canada route+cheaper tuition.

@ newacca

Guess you they guy going to study ACCA, if am rigth, i guess you should do a lot of research on the importance of studying ACCA in canada, cus that would be a reasonable amount of space. I am really glad for you, you really did upgrade your profile well enuf, that's why they are inviting you, like cindel said, be confident and do not doubt any section of your initial application during the interview. And please research a good reason for studying ACCA in canada, just go onlin you should get goo resources. I think you would be good to go.

Go knock them out.

@chizquare

The VO always has the start date of each application in mind, don't compare your appllications with others that were called for medicals in 4 weeks, it migth be a small verification that is delaying your application. applications differ so do Visa Officers, you still have about 2 months cus i believe your start date is september, if you called up for medicals, within 3-4 weeks your visa should be out. So just believe. All is well.

Just a word of advice, don't be puting your too personal details here, information posted here are exposed to the world, i know we all in these forum have common goal, but there are still bad eggs out there. I suggest you open a public email addresse for such purpose and paste here, i guess cuddlemii and others can always reach you on that and afterwards you can give them your number,

There are a lot of hungry cheap scammers out there.

@Rockafela,

Tofel is in no way mandatory for processing your study permit from Nigeria, as far as your institution was not in demand of it, you are covered. The only relevance of these standardized test (tofel and GRE) is that it confirms you a bonifide student, and puts you in the edge. But its in no way mandatory to submit scores from these test. Even if one puts these test results and lag's behind in other documentations, still won't work out. So my advice is first get all necessary mandatory documentations, then if you have extra cash and time, you can sit for the exam.

@ Rockefela

Congratulations U of R is a good institution, if your admission letter is for fall 2011, i guess you better start making moves to defer till winter and get a new start date soonest, if otherwise its for winter 2012 then you should start gathering all necessary documentations and prepare to submit by august or september.

@ obietrix, i guess the best maple can do for one is to expedite your application and make the VO process the application faster, but won't gurantee a visa.

@ cindel 07.

There is no one Rule or protocol CDHC follows, they already have their requirements on their website, but will not go into detail about each requirements for example, the say you must have a sponsor, and their are several kinds of sponsor, they say you must have an offer letter, (another question that poses here is the proposed course similar to the prospecttive course),
They equalll ask for transcript( there are different grades in transcript), i can go on and on, all this sum up to your aggragrate, trust me there is no exact way to prove to CDHC that you will return to Nigeria after your studies even if your family is wealthy, canada is one of the most student freindly country in the world. You cannot even compare it to the USA in terms of having your stay, so its very eazy to become a PR there, so the VO knows all these, an application coming in simple i.e using parents as sponsors, not having any break in education, a good transcript, toefl and GRE scores willl definitely be easy for CDCH to process, though its not necessary, but puts one at the edge. A more complicated application migth be delayed, because the CDHC migth still be having doubts.
Please i beg everyone don't send too many emails to them, if not it migth just lead to an hasty decision.
So when i say your aggregate application, i mean yor overall performance, you migth score low in the area of showing strong ties to your country, but earn more points in your academic grades and work experience and even source of financial documentation.

Hope that helps.

@ obietrix,

Sometimes, when prompted to go more medicals, they migth tell you yo pay your full tuition , atimes its waived. I think they will only tell you to pay full tuition if they have any doubts on your application, if not you are good to go. The mist important thing about CDHC is that each application is considered independently (based on aggregate evaluation). That explains why some peoples application spend few weeks then medicals, while other spend much more longer, but at the end still get their visas, the worse they ask for is a deferment, and you get your visa.

So trust me when i say it is well.
You will get it.

@tolyem, i think the best thing for you to do is to go the UPS ASAP and find out what is actually in that package. Offcourse if your passport photograph does not meet their specification, it will be definitely returned, i know a case of that, but never the less just go and find out from UPS.


@longcity, thank God for your success, your medical results will be positive in Jesus name. i keep saying it that CDHC is giving visas, just imagine longcitys case 2 weeks no space, as long as you submitted rigth documents and did not tell any form of lie and definitely God by your side you will get your visa.Delay is definitely as a result of processing your documents, and like i always say a comprehensive ambigous application, like multiple sponsors,certificate, can slow ones processing. Hope we get more medical invitees soon.

@ newacca,

I tell you everything is packaging, if you can convince the VO that you really intend going to study, then you are good to go, my freind left for canada on the 7th of may cus his college resumes 9th of may, he studied chemistry at undergraduate, and is going for a graduate certificate in international Business!! Please tell me the relationship, i guess he was able to show the VO that he needed a certificate in international business. All one needs to do is convince them. He even told me that the reason most people get denied is because they focus on trying to convince the VO that they will return instead of focusing on their studies(prospects and careers) giving multiple reasons of wanting to come back to Nigeria, the VO wiill assume you are trying to protect yourself from something. So focus on the fact that you are a student, your course and your passion for it and why you chose canada. I think with your significant change in emplyment and all sorts, you should be granted, cus the VO will lool at that last period you applied and now and see if there is a gap.

@adesem.
By applying for Acca from Nigeria, you are just giving the Visa officer more reason to doubt you admissibility as a student. Let's be frank, acca is not enough reason to travel canada at least not from Nigeria(its unfortunate that Nigerians happen to be the victim,because its not so in other CDHC in other countries), the first thing that comes to the VO's mind once analyzing an application is that you want to migrate, so you have to by all possible means give many reasons to doubt that. Yes acca is a professional course, but can be carried out in Nigeria, there are many students in know that even get acca certificate even before their first degree, trust me i know what am saying, Acca is more of a  *UK* thing, why do you want to study it in canada, why not  *UK*,all this and more will come to the VO's thought, although there migth be a lower chances of getting a visa to canada with acca, but trust me everything is packaging,if your statement of purpose can match your credential, i.e work experience and grades and you can elaborate on why you want to do your acca in canada you wil get a visa but my advice is find something more comprehensive, acca is not enough reason to issue you a visa try some colleges for international business or financial management, then when you get there, you could always pursue your acca dream. The main thing is getting there first. And you should be able to convince the VO that the reason for embarking on your studies in canada is to put you at an edge in Nigeria, because foreign certificates are better recognised, but in your case Acca issues a general certificate i guess, you will be having thesame certificate with someone that passes all stages of his exams here in Nigeria, but if you can package a good application like newacca said with evidence and proof, you are definitely good to go and will get your visa.

I think what harrymann said is very rigth,₪ the length of ones application depends oon the timely response of you university,bank,employee and sponsor, as far as you put in a good application,you will definitely get your visa, the more simple your application is the better, like my cousin that applied years back, his application was really delayed because he used a sponsor and a co sponsor, meaning 2 statements of account, and they will have to verify the 3, so you cannot compare such application to someone using just a sponsor, some universities take a lot of time in giving a feedback of transcript verification. If anybody is telling you that CDHC is not giving out visas, then the person must be joking, please take time to go to VI or Yaba and see how troops of people are going for their medicals, pllease don't be scared its just a very low percentage we here of , compared to the entire success rate. Once you submit a good application and keep your trust in God it will be fine.
Wishing fall hopefuls success.

Yea she also sent me the soft copy a week ago, my sister in the US called yesterday and said she just received the letter,that's barely 10 days from may 25 when it was sent, i knew canada - US will be faster. Concerning the defer ish. I emailed my supervisor, and told him everything, so he accepted it and said i should continue with the processing,so far he has agreed shouldn't be much of a problem. I Will send an email to my department today and copy SGS and request for defer,its not an hard process, all your deparment will do is send a revised program of study to SGS, then they will send the another letter that's all.

Hi everyone,

I was just deferred my admission till winter so as to gather good documents. But i have onee quick question. We have got a family business and my dad is the MD while my mum is a director, can i use both as sponsors? Declaring my dads personal account which is not too fine now and also declearing a 2 Years Fixed deposit in my mum's name of a very good amount more than enough to cover my tuition and expenses? Is it possible they just say the money was fixed for the past 2 years and will be used for my education, and also provide all of my dads landed documents and income from rent, the families business certificate and all other. Company documents? And also a landed property in both my parents name.

Please i need answers so i can know if this can work out!
