Approval!!!

congratulations.....

Memberclub:
want to know if having land properties is a good or a bad thing?

ofcourse it is a good thing, it is an asset that could be use as a tie to your home country.

Okusi:


I studied Mechanical Engineering and I'm working as a Technical Operations Engineer. I've been a banker before i got back to my career path.

My Uncle bears my mother's maiden name. The exact amount wasn't stated.

I think It's the family ties that I didn't put much reference.

Thanks

Try to work on your SOP, also work on the above corrections. Let the VO know that at this stage of ur career, that ur proposed program is very much needed; give genuine instance.
your mother birth certificate & ur uncle birth certificate would be fine. let him also state the amount and why is sponsoring you. Give your SOP to people you believe & trust to proofread for you. that is very necessary.

Okusi:
Good evening,

Got my Study Permit refusal came in on Saturday.

Hope to defer the Admission and try again.

Proposed course; Msc Risk and Safety Engineering at Memorial University of Newfoundland.

Reasons for refusal
1. based on your family ties in Canada and in your country of residence.
2. based on the purpose of your visit.

Tuition deposit of 2000cad as requested by School
Personal bank statement of 1.5m
Sponsor's (uncle) bank statements of over 40m
BSc degree cert. I graduated with with 3.63 CGPA

Birth certificate

Note - I've been refused twice for USA


I hope y'all can guide me through my reapplication.

Thanks

So sorry about your refusal, what did you study in your undergraduate and what is your current profession. I think the VO is not convinced about your proposed program being related to your previous study & work experience. So you have to do a lot of work convincing the VO.

2. Does your uncle bears the same surname as you do. if No did you explain the relationship btw the two of you and the the reason(s) he is sponsoring you. In his letter did he state exact amount he will sponsoring you with.

How did you show you ties. Do you have any land properties, family land properties, did you include siblings birth certificate, are you married, if yes then use you spouse as your ties. you can also use your chances of employment upon completion of program as your ties.

Awake18:
Good morning house,kindly assist me on this, I got a mail from CIC that I have concealed an information from them, the information in question is I didn’t disclose that I had previously been denied visa into Canada and USA which I did very well, now am at risk of 5years ban for something I know nothing about.Pls find the attachment

@ Awake, since you said you ticked yes as your answer in the form, did you also state the reason(s) for previous refusal. If you did then you are fine and should reply CIC appropriately.

NwanyiOkpa:


Thank you so much. I will download the Appraisal form so that my lecturers can pen-fill it and scan. I doubt they will even have adobe reader sef.

I contacted the grad school and they said it can be pen-filled and scanned.

Be very wise my dear brother, your application will be competing with hundreds of fellow applicants from all walks of life, download it, let them fill it on the system & send it from their university e-mails to memorial university e-mail, that's what makes it official. please do the needful I beg of you.

Before you apply for M.Eng in Mechanical Engineering, have you secured a potential supervisor, you really need to do that except your undergraduate CGPA is very high that's when a supervisor will reason your application after submission.
prepare a very good statement of intent.
Remember M.Eng in memorial university is a thesis based program which requires you to secure a supervisor.
You can as well consider MASc & PGD program in Engineering which do not require a supervisor before admission. I wish you the very best sir.

The applicant is NOT required to pay a biometrics fees again. The biometrics information the applicant submitted in his previous application dated 2016 is valid until 2026. Unless the applicant is going for a permanent residence of Canada that's when he will be required to submit his fingerprint the second time at VAC.

Please note---------- that I know countless of applicants who had their last biometrics done before July, 2018 when the law of biometrics been valid for 10 years was implemented and got approval without having to redo a fresh biometrics.

@emmy4Gold use this link to check the validity of your biometrics; https://onlineservices-servicesenligne.cic.gc.ca/extapp/bioStatusQuery

Thank you so much oga Frank & other good people that contribute to my enquiry, I have submitted my visa application, I was not charge for biometric based on the fact that it was still valid till 2026. I am grateful to you all

NothingDoMe:

Good evening good people and fellow Nigerians. Please I need clarification on this, "My visa application was refused in December 2016. I want to reapply again" Do I need to do another biometric

JudithPeter:
Pls everyone I require your help.
I paid my application fees for memorial University of Newfoundland using my masters card through the university website.
After 2 unsuccessful trials I noticed that the money had already been deducted from my account but I noticed that my payment didn't reflect on my profile and I also didn't receive a notification from the school stating that my payment was successful.
I went to my bank and was told that the payment went through.
It's almost a week and still nothing from the school
I'm also aware that memorial doesn't reply mails and will appreciate any suggestions from this forum on what to do.
Attached is a debit alert showing i made the payment.

send a mail to the school they will respond to your complain " gradapply@mun.ca"

Good morning my people, how is our day going, I guess smooth of course?

In the case of a co-sponsor, should the heading of the letter be "Co-sponsorship of ......" or preferably " Sponsorship of ......" which do you suggest for my case.
