Arebo:
@Emmane, now that you know the reason, you can tackle & explain all that was stated, seems your note came early, it shows you requested 1st of September.

guzenaira:


Oga,

I can't feel the pain of your delay but I definitely understand how it feels.

With the notes, you can see that it doesn't have anything to do with your studies yet they ticked purpose of visit which means so many things are characterised with the word 'purpose of visit'

Like the @thesoj said earlier on,i think you will have to work on it again and make sure you clarify this points you gave in your new SOP with a kind of Clarification pointing these things to the VO.

It's possible maybe they aren't convinced enough.

It is well my brother.

elfmann:

Medical practice? Kowaciate, biko.

Emmane:
Hello Gurus,

I have a query...

These WES guys never respond to inquiries made via their site. How can someone contact them.

I want to know if update progrmmaes like Continuous Professional Development (CPD) can be evaluated. There are professional Certifications optained during practice - med.practise. They are Post-Grad. Certificates. Can these certificates be evaluated, and will it count as part of Educational Credentials for EE - CIC??

glam4444:

Hope u not giving up.

Arebo:
@Emmane....please when did your review of eligibility start & how long did it take for a decision to be made? Thanks

Arebo:
Please any PGD/C applicant with update in the house Starting to believe they prioritize Msc over PGD for real, Yomalicious is the only update I have seen....It is well

jamie55:
NB: You said you got info here about 7 years ago and u couldn't even come back to share ur experience with those of us(upcoming ) until u need info for ur younger brother, that's not fair at all. Imagine if everyone does that how will this GREAT thread continue? That's just my view sha.

@mcobex: Thanks for replying and no vex. I did share my experience at the time but I was certainly not a guru like some of you. More so, over time my information is bound to become irrelevant. For instance, back then there were no biometrics or VFS. Now that I have signed back in, I can answer some questions that some of you have about Canada in general. I'm in Ontario btw (Greater Toronto Area).

jnyuwa02:


I guess you specialize in banning people for their opinions, I will not be surprised. My opinions are correct and borne out with evidence of high delay among PGD applicants when compared to Masters and PHD students. Term it negativity, I don't think so, I have no bone of negativity in me, I actually pride myself in my sheer sunny views on life. I am one who tells you as it is, not someone who tells you only the things you love to hear.

Wow! I am very grateful for all the advice and contributions. Thank you all and may God grant us all our trv desires in Jesus Name, Amen.

I AM A YOUNG LADY grin

The truth is that all of us cannot come from money readily available homes and God in His infinite wisdom has called me into a humble background. Not all of us have the privilege of quickly obtaining loan, be it from banks or humans

Did He make mistake in awarding me this scholarship? NO! Under no circumstances should I be admitted to UWO due to low 2.2 grade, but just one application to a school, a supervisor was reading available and I was admitted without delay.

All i am trying to say is that, God has and will always use the foolish things of this world to confound the wisdom of men. He has made a provision of "explanation" for me in the cic request, if for any reason I feel i will not be able to meet up with the request.

I am totally with the option of obtaining loan to pay my tuition (me wan chop trv nah grin grin, who will not want to?)
But, if God doesn't permit me to borrow by not sending whom I could borrow from, I will not still be shake for I serve a God who has the heart of kings in His Hands and control them as it pleases Him, The God who rules over the affairs of men.
No man can cage God by a rule, not even canadian VOs.

I truly appreciate every of your contributions.
It shall end in praise.

abestine:


This issue of leaving after program after completion of program as an excuse for denial is not becoming much, pls how can one tackle this? I think getting a court affidavit stating one will return can come in handy... Just my thought though... Sorry for the delay

CPA01:
Good morning all

I got an update on my profile yesterday but no changes. This is the second time this update is occurring on my profile. The first update I had, many people on this thread shared testimonies about medicals and TRV the next day and day after. I am not worried but I believe its a sign of testimonies on this thread today or tomorrow.

I therefore declare medical and trv mails for the remaining days of this week.

#hopeful#Amen

Hello guys! Good morning from Toronto. So sorry for the late response. I have been trying to settle since I arrived.I used Egypt air and their service was impressive. There is nothin to worry about at the POE as no big deal at all infact it wasn't like how people Painted it, I was expecting a more drilling exercise but unfortunately I was proved wrong by the generosity shown by the officer .the officers are all nice and friendly. I tendered my admission letters and the cic correspondence letter+passport and the questions goes thus :

What is the purpose of visit?
Is this your first time in Canada?
What is your undergraduate course?
The duration of the course?
Which school do you finished from and which city(when I told him lautech ogbomosho oyo state Nigeria, the pronunciation almost removed his tongue and he stated mocking me )
What graduate program are you going for
The duration of the course
What is the name of the school
What is the source of funding (self or government)
Jokes jokes jokes, the guy started making fun of me infact through out my chat with him, he only went true my funding letter he didn't bother to check my acceptance letter and the correspondence letter,he didn't give me the opportunity to answer the above questions he ended up answering those questions himself and never bother me at all, all I did was just to smile when he ask and immediately answer himself lol. Non of my luggage was checked everyone was able to collect their permit without stress and I wasn't even asked the amount of my PTA or if I came in with any . The experience was awesome and stress free . Free wifi is available at Pearson international airport so you can easily connect to speak with your loved ones at home. The weather here is still the same sunny weather in naija just that it changes in the evening/night but not too bad tho. All you need is courage and smile. Lastly, anyone coming tru MM airport after your luggage has been weighed should immediately padlock your box and make sure you didn't put any valuable tins in the pockets or other external spaces in your box. Although I locked the main place in my box but other sides that can't be locked I kept some few things in it and discovered like two zips where partially opened when I went to claim my bags at the final destination in Toronto,few things was stolen in my bag but I thank God it is not something that useful. They also ended up damaging my box as well,they turned my box from 4legged to 3legged box,all thanks to those guyz at MM airport , please be careful and take caution.I wish everyone all the best and it will surely end in praise.

I have a bachelor of arts in French language with a cgpa of 4.22 I can not possibly go for a certificate program in French translation.I have my colleague and my course mate presently in the same school,studying the same course.I believe the actual reason for refusal would be stated in the gcms note.Will let you guys know once I get that.Thanks
quote author=yemdogg post=56358272]

This is also not convincing. Masters in French Language is for people who are advanced in french language and as such, your argument would have hold much water if he was going for a certificate program which would have probably given him a foundation in the language of french. However, If he is trying to learn french for the purpose as stated by you, then a masters degree in french is too advanced for him and a bit far-fetched.

I align my thoughts on this to that of @austinpee4. I think he hit the bulls-eye.

nwugon:
Praise master Jesus for me. Reapplied may 26th after refusal on may 9th. upfront medical passed 27th July,review of eligibility started 27th July.approved today,passport request today.Thank you to everyone.My brother Judebebo I can't thank you enough.You did everything.Those still waiting for their decision God in his infinite Goodness will sure do it for you.

nwugon:
I used the same admission letter,same everything except with a more detailed SOP.

maziude:


Boss,

Simple.

Bring your USD to Canada. Then go to the bank you want to open an account with and exchange it there at a good rate. Please, use the bank here for your conversion if you no want waste USD. I got mine for 1.208cad to 1usd (that is, for every 1000 usd, i got 1208cad), while exchange booths were giving 1cad to 1 usd

If you read back, I did a bit of explaining about that.

So no worries.

lonelyhrt:




A winner don't give up easily, as it is now keep doing works that keeps you busy till the Day God approves it these words are for those that believe God is the supremacy all you should believe is God have a purpose for everything if it works then GOD KNOWS WHY if not don't give up and keep trying you might not know the other chance might be a breakthrough to PR for you.God can break protocols for a child of God so don't give up.

Don't compare or give up easily everything is deposited for us here in earth for prosperity so GRACE is what we all need even if your sin plenty if God have grace on you will be prosperous even a prostitute Rehab in the bible a prostitute that don't know God she heard of God's miracles she don't know God but she got that grace from God.

bro grace and be patient is all for our best ok don't give up

Dammiehar:


To become a Canadian citizen after gaining PR status, you have to have spent 1,460 days during the six years right before the date you sign your application and 183 days during each of four calendar years that are fully or partially within the six years right before the date you apply.

That's about 4 years out of 6 years, not 10 years. Read up on it on CIC's website.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/citizenship/become-eligibility.asp

GlitteringStar:


@above, WRONG!

For Canada, according to what is written on CIC's website, you must have been physically present in Canada as a permanent resident for at least:

- 1,460 days (4 years) during the six years right before the date you sign your application
-183 days during each of four calendar years that are fully or partially within the six years right before the date you apply

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/citizenship/become-eligibility.asp

*** I think it will soon be amended to 3 years instead of 4 years once it is approved by the senate***
