What about those who go through nomination program of pilot programs?

Bigwayne:
It is important to know your CRS score if you intend to use the Express Entry route eventually to get your PR after studies in Canada. The express entry route requires a program of at least 8 months and 8 months of physical presence in Canada to be able to claim points for Canadian education. People get PR as federal skilled workers within months of graduating. To say that it is impossible is false. To say that it is a bigger safety net to go for a 2 year program for a 3 yr pgwp is true. It helps to apply through the Canadian Experience class. Within 3 years you can get a 1 year work experience under the appropriate NOC and apply through the CEC.

Bigwayne:
How does a 1 yr program not qualify for PR. This is untrue.

Good evening NL.
I've been reading through and the list of documents required for the SP, works mostly for already graduated applicants.
Can anyone help with the list for undergrad?

Again, is it compulsory to add a SOP?

Hello great people, trust we are having a productive day. Please is it advisable to consider upfront medical?

Slayyy001:
Pls with the present system of virtual application? When will the embassy be open in Lagos perhaps and how long does a fresh student visa application for processing take now ?

Foski01:
Good evening NL.

Gurus, I have two questions

1. Is there a negative impact on my application if I withdraw some money from an account I already submitted its bank statement. I.e I submitted 4m bank statement while applying in July and in August I withdraw 200k.

Note: I am yet to get request for medicals, yet to do my bvn, yet to get an AIP.

2. For a students who took a PGC (usually 1yr) and is likely to get a 1yr PGWP, what does this mean with respect to their eligibility to apply for PR?

Rach622:
I'm so grateful for your response. Can the gift deed be fixed in my account?

Rach622:
Please can I use a gift deed from my Husband's elder brother as a proof of funds for my studies in canada?

How long should this gift deed have been with us? Can it be accepted if it's less than a month it was issued?

Muslimity:
Thanks Bros! If he applies now, knowing full well that the priority is for Fall 2020, what benefits could we hope to gain when they eventually attend to his application?

Since a minor cannot travel/study alone in Canada without being under a custodian watch his mother wants to go with him as an accompanying parent in line with IRCC requirement. Now the question is: if he sends in his application for Fall 2021 right away, will it not raise any suspicion that we simply want to take advantage of this season of massive AIP which is meant for Sept 2020? Please, advise me as I dont want to take any useless risk either way.

Osemigho:
Young folks are forgiven a lot. The biggest foul play will be sponsor. It is best if parent or siblings sponsor him. Also make sure your POF is tight. All the SOP and LOE no be big matter for young people like him. It is the parent job to submit tight sponsor documents and letter of support. If you still want him to add LOE, let him write a short one by himself and review it. You need to let him write in his words, while you ensure he touches the whole application,

1. Why he wants to study what he is gong for

2. Who is sponsors are and the relationship.

3. What he plans to do upon his return e.g. NYSC and others.

All the best.

Muslimity:
Good evening All,

Please, I like to know when applying for study permit for my son: who should be the one spraking in the SOP/LOE? Even if I wish to write the SOP, should I speak using the first person pronoun or the third person pronoun?

NOTE: My son is a minor (15 years old) going for undergraduate studies.

Kindly guide and advise.

Are you sure that Diploma is cheaper than Masters? Make better findings o.. Check many schools

Gurus in the house, could u pls respond to my question:

Nwannediutor:
Much Ado about nothing!

I have seen the argument for and against starting online classes with AIP and I think we are just too hard on ourselves.

IRCC has been very clear and unambiguous about this. Study permit applications will go through two stages; eligibility check and admisibility check

In the eligibility review, IRCC will confirm you actually got an admission with a DLI, that you are a genuine student, have enough money to take care of your studies and have enough home ties to ensure you return after studies.

The admissibility is where security checks are conducted ( e.g - your fingerprints are shared with the
Canada Border Services Agency to see if you have violated any immigration rules before.) It is also in this stage that your medicals is evaluated to ascertain if you will be a huge risk and burden to the Canadian health system.

Bottomline, is that if you do not have criminal records and no serious health challenges, you are 100% sure of getting the final approval.

You don't except IRCC to give you a 100% guarantee of getting final approval when they cannot confirm yet that you are not a criminal and that you don't have a serious health issue.

Congratulations to everyone who has received the AIP.

I am honestly praying that I receive mine soon.

True Talk & Very Factual

In a Scenerio like this,

An Applicant Got this mail from the international dept. Of his school based on the mail he sent to them.

Note : Tuition Paid for Fall 2020 Program, No Online Class (Strictly In-person Class), Gotten AIP, Programs Starts Early September

Hello,

Hope this note finds you well!

If I am understanding your situation correctly –

- You have applied for a prog. which is NOT offered in January 2021 ( next intake available for Fall 2021 only)

- You have applied for the Visa but have not received a decision yet

- The program has lab component so you cannot start from overseas and need to be in Canada to start your program


In this situation there are three things you can do –
-Wait for your visa decision and then see if the Government makes any changes to travel restrictions for those students who receive their visas after March 18

- Based on if and when the Government announces changes, you may then think about applying to another January program

- Request a refund


We would suggest wait for your Visa Decision before making any decision.

Regards

In this situation what would likely be the best option to choose?

Though the Applicant is looking at REQUSTING A REFUND

Hello house, please is it true that Canada embassy does not accept pictures for SP application submitted through paper route? I submitted my SP application at Lagos Vfs office in February but the lady who attended to me returned the pictures included saying that Canada doesn't accept pictures. I even told her that a colleague recently submitted his paper application and included pictures.

I am currently thinking of sending the pictures via web form. Please what do you advise?
