Hi

You do not need a transit visa to fly any European Airline to Canada, as long as you are not going through the US.

Safe trip.

My timeline. 2nd time applicant. Did not use an agent for both applications.
First of all, all glory to God. I'm still in shock.

Level of study: PhD, fully funded.

First application submitted April 26th 2021
Rejected: August 18th 2021. I wept like a baby.
Reason for rejection:
1. That I do not have the sufficient funds to pay for tuition fee without working in Canada.
2. That I do not have sufficient funds to cater for myself and accompanying family member without working in Canada

Note: I did not indicate that I will be going with any family member. Also, my tuition is fully funded and with a monthly stipend which is even above the IRCC recommended $10000.

I was depressed, cried my eyes out. But had to forge on the next day.
I informed my PhD supervisor. He lifted my spirit and encouraged me not to give up. He also said he will provide a note to support my reapplication.

I deferred my admission from Sept 2021 to January 2022. A new letter of acceptance and updated funding letters were provided from the Uni and supervisor.

2nd application
Submitted: September 30th 2021.
Applied for GCMS note: 3rd November 2021.
Upfront medical: done for my first application in July 2021.
Eligibility review: started 4th November 2021, PPR came 30 mins after.
PPR: November 4th 2021.

Documents submitted
New letter of admission
Funding letter
Letter of support from my PhD supervisor assuring the visa officer that funds will be available for my tuition and living expenses.
My personal MBS of less than 100k naira.
Waec certificate, Undergraduate and MSc certificates as well as transcripts.
Letter of explanation (4 pages).
Statement of purpose (6 pages).
Awards for best graduating student for BSc and MSc.
CV showing my journal publications and conference publications. I also attached a link to my Google Scholar profile.
Passport showing my travel history. I did my MSc abroad.
IELTS result.
Proof of COVID vaccination.
For proof of home ties I explained the value of my degree to Nigeria. I'm an orphan so I do not have much family ties. So I emphasized more on the value of the course to Nigeria and job prospects.

My letter of explanation
In my 4-page letter of explanation, I thanked the visa officer for the opportunity for a reapplication. I then wrote out each of the previous refusal reason and explained myself.
For tuition, I explained to the VO that PhD tuition in my uni is always paid via scholarship and in fact you have to secure a supervisor who will agree to fund you for the entire 4 years before you even apply for admission. I then called the attention of the VO to my funding letter as well as letter of support from my supervisor.
For living expenses, I wrote that after deduction my tuition fee from the entire funding amount, what is left is even more than the $10000 per year which is recommended by IRCC.
I ended my letter of explanation by pleading with the VO to grant me this privilege of approval as my only chance of getting a PhD is through funding. And in truth I only had 75k naira in MBS account.

In all, I am so grateful to God for this approval. My application was not perfect. I only had 75k naira in my MBS. No home ties as an orphan.
The first refusal broke me to pieces. It is really not easy to experience a refusal. Indeed, I am so grateful to God. I also appreciate everyone here on this platform who I learnt from their timelines and invaluable information.

Congratulations to those recently approved. Ketima, Atite, Jay316, the ever present Lianna2020, Viviangos, Calcrete etc.
Also sending my best wishes to all those awaiting this good news: Teemenzo, Tinakem, Chris, Mummy4life, Rolly4, etc.
Also not forgetting those who are reapplying again: Emeenaka, Oreoluwamipo etc and those awaiting positive outcome from JR such as Rolly4.

Thank you so much everyone.
Alhamdulilah

Good morning all...

I am new on this thread,
I applaud all the good works of kind selfless ppl on this thread and it's previous.
I have been so many testimonies and I pray to get mine soon.

Pls I would like gurus in the house to suggest schools I can apply for full sponsored PhD scholarship in "water resources and environmental engineering".

My masters is in water resources and environmental engineering with excellent PhD
grade...

But my first degree is in civil engineering with a poor 2.2 (my major concern and fear of obtaining a full sponsored scholarship).

My plan is is to be able to prepare and meet up for the 2022/2023 academic session.

I just need councels generally...

My desired country of study is Canada, nonetheless any other reasonable locations are welcomed...
Thank you upfront.

If you are in Lagos, just head to Ikeja High Court. Outside the gate, you would see people asking if you want to do affidavit. It cost between 1k to 1.5k.

Police certificate is valid for 3 months. Hence,it might have expired. Although, it's not a mandatory document. You might not use it for reapplication.
For the others, if you can, just provide an updated letter with a new date.
For the attached picture, it is correct.

Please Guys,

When re-applying after a refusal do I need to provide the following afresh or use the same I used in my earlier application?:

1) Police Character Certificate

3) Father’s Letter of Sponsorship
4) Father’s Affidavit of Sponsorship
5) Letter of Introduction from Father’s current employer
