Yeah any high court around you. Have it notarized too

Lezy:
Where did you do your deed of gift? Can I do that in the Court?

Thanks.

Lol probably like no good meals, no streaming of movies… sitting arrangements etc �

emmalextemtop:


Argh, uncomfortable ke, e sha nor go be like how i dEy take public transport for 9ja sha.

Thanks!

I heard it’s Cheap, and fast cause there are no long stop overs that will last for hours…. But I also heard it’s uncomfortable.

They don’t provide you with the luxury that British Airways will provide you with

So it all depends on your pocket and which is more important to you

emmalextemtop:
Hello everyone!

Am seeing several people booking Ethiopian Airline, please is it very good and cheap and advisable to book my flight with them?

And any idea of the current amount?

Thank you!

Lol this was the exact refusal reason I got in my first application. But glory be to God, my second application got approved.

For a one year course, your living expense is 10,000CAD, that’s like 3million plus and you have only 1million in your personal savings account. These visa officers know that you can’t have access to a fixed deposit account for a period of time so that’s basically having nothing to them.

I used my sponsor’s fixed account of 10million and his savings account that had like less than 5million for a three year course. Lol I was naive.

What I did differently in the next application was that, my sponsor liquidated his fixed account and transferred the money into his savings account. He also transferred my remaining tuition and living expenses to my account. Then I submitted with a deed of gift

So since you’re self sponsored, I advice you to use money that you can have access to, not just a fixed deposit account. Liquidate your fixed account if possible, and put about 12,000CAD in your account.
Use a letter of explanation explaining what you did differently this time,
Also, support your application with all your business and employment documents, payslips, letter from employer, CAC documents etc

You can also wait for more solutions from other members.

God will perfect your next application in Jesus name

Gilb231:
Hello guys,

I just received my GCMS notes

Self sponsored application.

Proof of funds submitted

Complete payment of program tuition, text books and 6 month health insurance
Fixed deposit in my name N15m
Just over a 1m in my personal account

The program is for 1 year.

I’m not a guru, but since your mom is your sponsor, and she’s the sole owner of the properties, she can sell them, transfer the money to her bank account. Then you add all the property documents, evidence of sales, receipts , invoice etc to your application
She should explain this In her signed letter of support.
You should also explain it in your letter of explanation.

ANGELAREE:
Please can anyone give me good reasons for lump sum in my sponsors bank account
My mum can sponsor me but she doesn’t have the 10m in her account rn
But she has lands and properties but we’re scared it’ll be considered lump sum if she sells something and transfer all the money to her account

Thank you bro

Your LOI is your approval letter. That is what you are going to upload on your school portal.

feistymikey:

Is Passport request letter the same as Study permit approval letter?

I’m supposed to upload a study permit approval letter on my school account…. So I’m confused.

Alexjohn2020:
with everything you submit, I believe say u dey greener pastures already, u for try dey make naija a better place

First and most importantly, I want to thank God for this success of my application and for giving me my PPR!! He alone is worthy to be praised. I also wanna thank everyone who helped me one way or the other by answering all my questions.
Here’s my story, timeline and documents:

My Visa application journey started February last year.
After 4 months of waiting, My first application was refused in June for “personal assets and financial status” reasons. I Ordered for my gcms notes, the VO stated that my funds were too modest (small) & doesn’t seem available & sufficient.

So, I deferred my admission from September to January 2022 . My friend advised I changed my course from a three-year course to one that lasted for two years since both will get you a 3year work permit at the end of the day.. so I changed my course, but still within the same field (IT/Computing)

I began another application journey, but this time, I decided to include my bank statements too. So I told my sponsor who is also my step-father to start sending my remaining tuition fees and living expenses into my account so I can apply when it’s complete.

So he sent 7 million in July, 8million in September, and 3 million in October. He also liquidated one of his fixed accounts and sent 10 million into his savings account

I Reapplied on November 11, 2021 with the initial documents I submitted in my first application with a letter of explanation explaining how I have addressed the visa officer’s concerns.

I deferred my application again to May 2022, then the long wait started till I got my PPR yesterday night.

The slip that was given to you at the Biometric center. Doesn’t have to be yellow color, mine is blue slip.

Visit the one at 41 Joel Ogunnaike street, GRA Ikeja after Domino pizza. Or google the one around you.

Please when sending Passport to Abuja, which one is the Yellow biometric slip again?

Also does anyone have an address of the dhl office in Ikeja?

Thank you ��

I'm still in awe of this blessing.

I feel such huge relief from the anxiety and wish the same for everyone who is expecting PPR.

At a point, i stopped praying about it lol but worship songs never left my mouth.

I thanked God every morning in advance for the success of the application.

My faith was so strong, I couldn't believe it was coming from me.

I even started looking for flights 3 days ago (almost booked before i gave myself brain)

Special thanks to everyone who has ever contributed on this platform. I was silent but i consumed data on nairaland like i was jacking for jamb.
Every search i typed on google ended with nairaland because i knew i could count on information i got here.

God bless everyone of you. Ire a kari o

17 weeks on the dot.

In January I sent a lot of emails and like three webforms. All I got was generic responses. I needed a decision because the last day to pay my 1st term fees or withdraw and be eligible for full refund (excluding deposit of $1000) was on the 28th. My program doesn't do deferral but they said they could assure us of a readmission for fall term, we would only have to pay the application fee of $100 but we won't have to pay a deposit of $1000 again because it would be moved to fall. Like 4 of my course mates (1 Nigerian and 3 Indians) too this offer and withdraw and I was tempted to take this offer too; but my sister (my sponsor) said no, I should have faith (funny thing she is not a believer of faith, and she is very logical and basis her decisions on concrete facts and not hope). I paid my fees on the last day (I sent the fee receipt payment through a webform) and continued with the program online. Everyone was online including domestic students because of the Omicron variant. But they resumed in-person/hybrid 2 weeks ago. And believe me, I thought online classes was bad, but hybrid is way worse. I didn't send any emails or webforms after January and I even applied for a remote job for a US company to keep me distracted (I got the job too, and resumed this week). I later decided to order for my gcms notes on the 4th of March, though I don't think it caused my decision to arrive 2 weeks after. I got my PPR without them even asking me for an updated LOA to ensure I was still enrolled.

My background
Bsc in Architecture from University of Nigeria (UNN)
Program in Canada: Masters in Digital Media from Ryerson University (I explained I was focusing on Virtual and Augmented Reality in my sop, I will post my sop draft here for anyone who needs inspiration. Please inspiration, do not copy exactly)
3+ year work experience in architecture and construction (was never a full time worker, only during nysc, was always an independent contracted designer, submitted my last contract).

I will post my documents shortly, my new boss keeps sending tasks to do.

It will end in praise for us all in Jesus’ name

Josh3322:
I applied on Nov 11th also, but eligibility review hasn't started.

Amen thank you for this ❤️

Obibaby:
Wow! Submitted application on the 10th of Nov and got PPR on the 10th of Feb, exactly 3months. Keep sending emails and webforms, morning and night. When Nairobi sent my PPR letter, Abuja office informed me. So send emails to all of them. Also pray always.

It will end in praise for you in Jesus Name Amen.
