Please gurus in the house I need your help with this

Eilenora:
I am a bit unclear, my course says:

BMT1B - Business Management, London South
Start Date: January 04, 2021 End Date: August 31, 2022
Level: Graduate Certificate Program Status: Full-Time

As you can see, mine is a 2years programme but described as a graduate certificate on the offer letter which is contrary to your explanation of most 2 year courses being diplomas. What will my certificate say? I selected College Certificate on my IMM form not diploma. The options were: College certificate, college diploma and college applied degree.

Naijaforeigner:
PGC = College certificate

In Ontario, for most schools, usually 2 semesters (8 months). However, It also depends on school and program. Some PGC programs in Ontario are 3 semesters - 12 months duration (includes compulsory coop).

I think most 1 year programs in Quebec takes full 3 semesters (12 months).

Your certificate will state Ontario College Graduate certificate or Ontario College certificate depending on the school.

If you are going for PGC, on IMM form, you choose College certificate


PGD = College diploma. In ontario, it is Usually 2 years duration. You will end up with a certificate that says Ontario College Diploma or Ontario College Graduate diploma depending on the school.

If you are going for PGD, on IMM form, select College diploma

Applied degree is below PGC and PGD. Usually longer in duration depending on the school.
I think Applied degree is same level as Bachelors.

Eilenora:
Hello All,

Please I need to ask something; when applying to colleges, in filling the IMM form, what should one select between college certificate, college diploma and college applied degree? cos i noticed several refusals here on the basis of selecting diploma.

My Course is:

BMT1B - Business Management,
Level: Graduate Certificate

Siobhanle:
Hi everyone, Is the "Ontario College Graduate Certificate" equivalent to the standard Post Graduate Degree and/or Post Graduate Certificate? (For 2:2 graduates when applying to colleges)
I’ve seen a couple of schools refer to it as the degree/certificate awarded.

Sleekigboguy:
Anybody??
Pleassseee

silvamania:
Thanks

But please let me get this straight !!!

If am applying for a program as a self sponsored applicant with no unaccompany family members

I can just fill their details in the family information section and don’t include any of their documents ( like birth certificate)

Is that okay or not ??

silvamania:
Good Evening All,

Please can I attach my siblings international passports instead of their birth certificates. They can’t seem to find it

Thanks

Omah7979:
Good evening gurus, please is it possible for an uncle or aunt to be my sponsor?

Anon123:
At this point, no final decision has been taken on this application meaning you might still have a
slim chance of saving the application. Seeing the vos comments, why no draft a letter defending all he has said while pointing his to evidence showing why he is wrong .If I were you I would try even though the chances are slim but its still a chance.

My 2kobo.

haymekus:
Will someone need to write ietls exam before applying for pgd or msc in Canada?

venemous:
Hi family I booked for an appointment but I have issue with my name. One letter is missing instead of Emmanuel it is written as Emmanue 'l' is missing.

Will that be an issue? Should I cancel this and book for another appointment??

johnsonm2g:
Good day to you all.
Please how long does information stay in CIC data base? the reason why I'm asking is because I entered my siblings date of birth wrongly when I applied for student visa in the year 2016.
I want to apply again now, do I have to bring it up in my LOE or I should forget and fill the correct ages next time?

vibrant99:
How much was in the bank statement Balance ?

Noted*
Decent*
Okay*


Etc , When it is reasonable, ...Did you see anything like you are not financially Capable ?

vibrant99:
Someone Actually told this person to APPLY again that they will get it....

Applying with this same whole situation abi with another strategy?

There are no concerns here as someone advised you to tackle them and reapply!


Read the BOLDED part more than 3 times over and OVER again... That VO isn't even talking to you, sending a message to the person that will review your next application.

It will End in Praise!


UPDATE:.... I love that part where the VO said Mother's Account noted,.... I kind of smiled.

Your entire work was done in Your mother's Statement of account to make up for the others that looked frail.....

Don't Reapply sir/Ma

LordAA:
Good day everyone,

Thank you.

Hello house , frankrobbi1, justmellow, and other gurus here, pls I need your assistance, I want to submit study permit application for a sis to study degree program in Canada, please we have account statement worth 17M from sponsor and we want to transfer the 10,000cad to the girl account, should I send to her naira account or how do we do this please Cos someone chatted me up to open account with a Scotia bank, please how do I go about this , please

JustMellow:
Hello Fgmp12,

Its sad to receive the news on your application. You should get if in your next try but only if you keep your focus intact.

The general idea of the VO's non-satisfaction was from your study plan. Try as possible to critically emphasize on the raised concerns.

Even if your graduation year was 2019, still try to demonstrate an engaged activity i.e. job hunting (email correspondence to/with prospective employers etc), skill acquisition relating to your prospect study,evidence of freelancing jobs, stipend received from managing the family business etc.

As an adult, based on the notes, the VO may be poised to understand your employment situation and what you've been doing prior after your graduation to the date of filing for your study intent.

I don't think the program of study was majorly the issue, esp if the course correlates with your previous study. I think the areas of home ties, funds, and LOE should be looked into.

I wish you the best of luck

Eilenora:
Did you get AIP?

Are you a June or July applicant? You mentioned June somewhere and July wlsewhere.

Has your cic page been updated with the refusal?

Pee2Jay9:
Thank you for sharing.. I appreciate.. Seeing these notes gives clarity and hope as well.. I see that u applied for Graduate certificate, I'll advice you choose PGC next time and a course that u can actually defend that is lucrative here.. Study whatever else u like over there when u arrive Canada but for the sake of visa, let there be correlation.. All the best in the next application

Anon123:
So sorry for the delay bro. Its a delay not a denial. Be strong, dont let it weigh you down.

The school and program you are going for isnt an issue.

I have a dew questions to ask.. What did you do in your bsv, Did you state you are working, if yes what is the job role, does it have any relationship or close relationship with the intended course. On your sop, did you explain the markertability and employability the course is in your home country, did you discuss your plans after studies.

What did you use as your home ties pls...

Mobi22:
My heart dropped, now youve see the faults
im sure you'll be able to tackle it in the next application, all the best boss... when did you do your biometrics?

Tonyodg:
when did you apply for the notes ?
Bro I know this feeling trust me , I am sure you would get it the next time unfailingly by Gods grace

heidepaper:
Thank you. Please do I still need to fill the "Request for medical exam section`` if I have done an upfront medical exam?

Sanovsky007:
Sorry to hear this boss.
Please can you share your timeline?

heidepaper:
Hello house, please where do I upload my upfront medical slip? client information OR Request for medical exam section?

heidepaper:
Hello house, please has any one used a document in another language for an online application? Since we´re uploading it online, is a copy of the original and the translation enough? or do I still need to do a certified true copy and upload? Thanks in advance

Tonyodg:

Nothing is impossible with God and good packaging
