Thank you Lekiboboe for your response.
Yes, I graduated 2012 and has been in different career like Technical sales Engineer, Inventory Officer etc before venturing into Seamanship. I do not have much evidence to proof to IRCC on my previous employments.

I am more fulfilled on this career path than my previous, and has done many professional courses in seamanship which I believe can be a leeway to securing a seat for admission and study permit respectively.

I read on this floor that it is advisable to go for a program related to your current career especially when you have upto 10 years study gap.
Thank you!







Lekiboboe:

Hmmm

This seems like a Regulated program just like Medicine, Nursing etc.

Probably you should go for a Program you can tailor your work experience to.

I have a question,

You said you graduated 2012 and currently working onboard an Oil tanker vessel as an Able Body Seaman for over a year , so since 2012 till the time you got the ABLE BODY SEAMAN job, what kind of job were you doing? and what year in particular did you get the ABLE BODY SEAMAN JOB?

This is a field specific case that you will hardly find a good response here. You need to investigate it yourself. If you can't find a good answer, aviod the program if you can. Oyinbo no dey joke with terms and conditions.

Note: Applicants must provide a valid Transport Canada Marine Medical stating ‘fit for sea service’ or ‘fit for sea service with limitations’ prior to program start. In the case of an applicant with a certificate ‘fit for sea service with limitations’, the application will be reviewed. Failure to provide the certificate by the deadline may result in an offer of admission being revoked and withdrawal from courses.

Mature students, non-secondary school applicants (19 years or older), and home school applicants may also be considered for admission. Eligibility may be met by applicants who have taken equivalent courses, upgrading, completed their GED, and equivalency testing. For complete details refer to:



Please guru in the house I need your professional opinion on the above subject.
The above is one of the major requirement for admission into the course I want to study in Canada.
How can an international student who does not have PR yet provide a valid Transport Canada marine medicals? hence the country does not accept marine medicals done outside of Canada.
Oseigbo, Makano, Frankrobbn1, Lekiboboe and anyone please help me!

Please I am in this shoe right now,how can I go about it? I read here that a B.sc holder doing a job outside his academic decree will opt for Pgd in Canadian school not Diploma or Advance diploma in order to maintain academic progression.
I mailed Nscc to inquire if they offer pgd program in Marine Navigation Management Technology,but their response was that they offer it in a one year Advance diploma, while diploma certificate in Marine Navigation Technology is two years plus one year co-op, the school also told me that hence my Bsc is not related to Nautical science that I do not meet their admission requirement for one year advance diploma that I am qualify for only their diploma program.
The mail also stated that none Canadian citizen or PR holder does not allow to board Canadian flagship,that international students without the above status can only be issued academic completion certificate but would not be issued Certificate of Competency (Coc).
Please I need advice from all the professionals aboard this platform on how to navigate around this situation hence I'm trying to maintain a good academic progression before the IRCC.
Thank you in advance!








Lekiboboe:

Hi

I don't know if Canada admit HND holders with a PGD for their Masters program, you might need to do reach out to the school on that or await a response from the house.

Your friend should do his research on the Relationship/Corelation between Public Administration and Social Work, Peace and Conflict etc. If there is a connection and if he can tailor his ACADEMIC background and Work Experience to the mentioned field, then he is good to go.

Note that work experience is not an admission requirement, it's just to solidify the profile of someone whose work experience is related to his/her field of study (Academic background)

Just like this scenario

A BSC holder of Microbiology with Accounting work experience would very likely not be considered for a Masters in Accountancy because he/she doesn't have Academic background in Accounting or related field.

I was busy, was busy with my father's and mother burial, mother died before, now father died, so we were doing both burial together, I was not in good state, so decided to let agent did the process for me. When am stable, collected login details, access documents he submitted and asking questions, that was when I noticed his errors.

Been in 4 countries is nothing, we learn every day and immigration process changes every time. Even if you are there, you will continue to learn and ask questions because no one is the owner of oyinbo rules.

Now, I am doing my study application by myself.

My journey and efforts to study abroad started in 2013 but I would fast forward it to 2015.
I tried several times to secure admission but no success until 2018 when I got admission in Seneca college.

First Application study visa submitted on 4 February 2019 through an agent but was refused 4 April 2019. Reason: Purpose of visit
Second Application study visa submitted April 18 2019, refused 25 May 2019. Reason: Purpose, Asset and TH.
Third Application - Visitor visa through an agent again. Submitted September 24, 2019. Refused 25 October 2019. Reason: No genuine business purpose.
Fourth Application through another agent- visit. Submitted 10 December 2019. After 2 months of submission I called for withdrawal due to the fact that the agent was not sincere.
I thereafter contacted Mr Frank who used his expertise to get me admission for Master program.
Fifth Application study visa submitted 24 August 2020 but was refused 24 September 2020. Reasons: Purpose, Asset, Ties and TH.
Sixth Application study visa submitted on 11 September 2021 but refused 27 October 2021. Reasons: Asset and Ties. At this point, I became frustrated and tired. But God just sent Makano to me and everything changed. He first of all calmed me down and encouraged me. He even gave me an instance of an applicant on this forum with similar experience of several refusals. After his consolation, Makano sacrificed and put in his best, with very affordable, I repeat very affordable fee for my Seventh application. Makano requested for my previous GCMS notes and after he studied them, he told me that once I provided him the documents he would request for, my next application would be approved. I just yinmu that what was this one saying, Lol. He also ordered me to pay full one year tuition. In fact en, that Makano is a wizard, I remembered one of my company clients (a diplomat) from one European country offered recommendation letter in addition to my application. Makano demanded for letterhead from the European Embassy if truly the diplomat wanted to assist. Well, his well packaged application was submitted on 11 January 2022 and PPR came 5 May 2022.
Below are the documents submitted for the last application:
SOP

I followed all Makano requested for, and he painstakingly took charge of the application. After submission, Makano called me every 2 days to ask for any update.
Thank you God!
Thank you Makano
I would also use this medium to thank all other people on this platform for their efforts. Particularly, Mr Frank, I say thank you. He worked assiduously to get the admission for me, and we enjoy a friendly relationship.

Please how do we identify them?



ShowYoung:
NBCC is a time waster, they won't tell you whether or not there is a space for an intake, they'll just collect your application fee and tell you to wait till they have space for you (waitlist). You could wait for a year, more or less.

I will advise you leave them and look for admission elsewhere in order not to waste your time. Also, ensure you avoid colleges and universities that delight in this kind of strategy.

I had been waiting for your landing gist nwanne. May you enjoy milk and honey in your new found land.
I'm next in line!



Hello beautiful people .

LANDING GISt

I want to apologize for taking over a week to update the house on my landing gist. I will try to make it short .

On the 24th of April I got to Port Harcourt international airport to board my flight with Lufthansa airline. After the usual check by the immigration officers at the door , I proceeded to Print my boarding pass . The Lufthansa staff requested for my passport, Arrive Can, admission letter and proof of enrollment. Afterwards my boarding pass was handed over to me with my documents and my bags checked in .

Then I was asked to meet the immigration officers (boarder officers ) and they requested for my passport and boarding pass. one of the officer was busy asking for my WAEC result ( delay tactics to extort me . I didn’t give them shishi . ) when he got tired ,he finally stamped my passport and asked me to go .

We left PHC at 8:00pm and arrived Abuja at 8:50pm for technical stop over ( to pick passengers in Abuja) . The delay was for 1hr:30 mins before we took off to Frankfurt. The food was good and I ate everything that was served grin . I slept most of the time and finally we reached Frankfurt at 5:15am.

At Frankfurt Airport , they only asked for passport and Arrive can . After 5hrs layover. We continued our journey to Calgary. I won’t lie I got tired of this trip to Calgary. It was so long and I didn’t even sleep the entire 9hrs 45mins and even got tired of watching movies ..The flight attendant warned me twice for not wearing my nose mask properly and threatened to report if she cautions me for the third time ( you can be fined 5,000cad in Canada for not wearing your mask when you are on transit). For my mind I say which kind witch be this one . I could not breath very well but I say make I just obey before my village people go use me do scapegoat.

Finally we landed at Calgary and I went straight to one of the computer for self declaration. I was quick because I wanted to get to the Boarder office on time because the crowd was much . The boarder officer that attended to me only asked for my passport and admission letter . He asked if I have paid my fees and how I intend to pay the balance . Then he issued me study permit and work permit ( please ensure your collect your work permit if your program is co-ops). At this point I was mad happy . Finally , I went back to the boarding gate to catch my flight to Edmonton.

I am loving it here !

I wish everyone waiting for decision good luck . God will put a smile on your faces. [/quote]

I have been confused over a couple of weeks now on how to navigate around any issue.
I have been on intensive search for a Canadian college that offers two years Pgd in Marine navigation management technology but quite unfortunately the school have such program for one year advanced diploma.
Secondly I saw another related program in same school and same campus (Nscc straite campus), Marine Navigation Technology for three years diploma (two years for studies while one year is for co-op).
Gurus in the house please what would you advise me do? @Makano, Frankrobbn1, Lekiboboe, Omiinii and others who has been in this confined space before.

Thank you for your response Predator188.


Predator188:

Note that The date of the business registration on the certificate of registration of business name matters..it may negatively effect your approval if quick to submit application with CAC certificate .. if the CAC certificate is considered, the VO may weigh the date of registration against the date applications is submitted if it is short ..it can be assumed that you are not sufficiently well established in the county of origin. ..since business is registered few months back...
While POf is 4 months Bank statement..
You can't use your business account to fund study visa even if the money is your own...it can be an evidence of your business ongoing....
Personal account is better in this case..

I have been in search of any Canadian college that can offer 2 years PGD in any of these Nautical science courses, Marine Navigation Technology or Marine Navigation Management Technology. Nscc offers PGD in Marine Navigation Technology but it's a one year program.
Please if anyone have information about schools that offer any of the above courses or any Navigational related course should kindly assist me.
Please note, Marine engineering is different from Nautical science (Navigation).

[b][/b]CONTINUATION OF LANDING GIST

The only thing I didn't like about Egyptair was there was no WiFi but the rest were on point. Finally we landed at cairo , stayed for 5hrs, it was time to board ,they asked for Arrive Can, Covid test and enrollment letter. We were served 3 rounds of food, I slept off but making sure food doesn't pass me by, after I inclined my seats so I can sleep well.
After 11hrs we got to Canada and went to scan, queue was long but was moving fast , the next queue was the first immigration, I was asked for ArriveCan receipt and passport, in my mind I was like is that all, please screenshot your receipt incase no network to log in and any money you are carrying with you just declare it, I carried all my money I didn't leave any cash in my account thank God I did because my dollar card is not working here at all, I declared the amount I carried they cleared me. I thought it was over ,I meet a shorter queue, this time is where the real exam is, some people were praying ,it got to my turn, I was saying holy ghost fire, the woman asked for my admission letter she held it and told me to login to my student portal ,I logged in with the WiFi, this woman was just acting like I am the cause of her problem, she was checking to see I have any fault, she then saw I declared my cash, she vex and I said the devil is a liar, immediately the woman was like "I don't know what you are mumbling " I just kept shot I cannot reach this far and this woman will chase me to 9ja, she stood up fear catch me, she carried my passport with her then she came back and stamped my passport and arranged my documents for me , I sighed heavily, she then told me welcome to Canada , it was as if breeze was blowing hearing it, she later told me to extend my permit and I will love it here and apologized for making me uncomfortable. In my mind I was like "did this woman come all the way from Murtala Mohammed" it's remaining for her to say "don't you know what others are doing " then I went to declare my bags,thank God I wrapped my bags, the wrapper sef tore small . The Nigerian I met were just thanking God ,we were even singing and praising God and took some pics too.
Immediately I got to the hotel I went to get phone plan , I made sure it was as cheap as anything ,they were helpful and gave me one samsung that they abandoned, I was like the same phone some people in 9ja will behave like they have made it in life is abandoned here . Then I booked appointment to open an account on Monday and also SIN. It's windy and cold . The Indians are lovely they were keeping me company at walmart ,see me crossing road and cars were waiting for me to cross fast, I started cat walking . I must blend quick . thank God I didn't experience jet lag.
Thank you everyone for helping me in one way or the other, for those that have gotten PPR get ready , those that are still waiting you will get it in Jesus name, this canada will reach everybody. It's 7:36pm time to sleep.

If you are self-sponsor, then you must show funds that will cover the 2 years of study, including living expenses.

But if someone is sponsoring you, according to IRCC, they must show that funds are available for your first year of study and be able to show that you will have an equivalent amount for the subsequent year(s); either through their business, payslip, fixed-income, or other acceptable means.

I have a pdf information on study permits' instruction designed by IRCC Dakar office. All these information are inside. You can reach out to me through mail, I'll forward it to you if you need it.

LANDING GIST!!!! BRACE YOURSELF tongue

So my trip was Lagos - Vancouver via Ethiopian Airline by 1:40pm wasn't a smooth one, but I thank God..

Arrived the airport very early, but the queue at the airport no be here! Airport was crowded, scattered, nothing was orderly at the Airport. After waiting for almost 1hour on the queue, one devilish immigration officer eventually told me to join a wrong line, and I lost my spot, and had to go back to the queue again! I almost comot my boxer swear for this guy! angry

He just kept apologising, that's what calmed me down sha.
Got to Ethiopian Airline/Naija Immigration checks, was sha asked for my Passport, Acceptance Letter, Arrive Can, Vaccination Card, Covid-19 TEST PCR (which I eventually did, cause I just didn't want any issue and problems.) they told a Chinese lady there to go get a Covid-19 Test and I'm sure she missed the flight, and that was all.

Going through checks to board my flight, begging and taxing everywhere at Naija Immigration, I no give anyone 10kobo, cause no be their papa gimme money I use apply for Visa or pay any of my expenses, my check-in bags were searched and unfortunately, those wicked Naija Immigration seized my body lotion, body and anti persperants deodorants was 3, like 5 hair cream, everything seized was worth almost 15K. (I eventually found out, I wasn't meant to check in those kinda stuffs) Guys please learn from me. Don't check in with those sorta stuffs, they should be included inside your boxes. Begged and begged this woman, she no gree, gave me the option of taking it back to my fam outside, family wey don begin dey go house, or trashing it there( which kine mumu trash? Na them go use am, BASTARDDDSSS) I eventually found out na money she dey find, but unfortunately, I didn't have cash with me. Gave out all my naira. Dem no born me well give am $100 notes cause na only wetin I carry be that.

Eventually I was the 2nd to the last person to board on the plane. Almost missed the flight. Was running like a FOOL! Immediately I boarded, wasn't up to 8mins, we took off . ENROUTE >>>>>>>ADDIS ABABA (5hours 20mins)

Food was terrible, met Nigerians that were leaving the country. Addis Ababa Airport is really beautiful, see difference between Naija Airport and Ethiopian Airport nau. Everything orderly and arranged.
Didn't stay at the Airport for up to 40mins. Got into my next flight to Toronto, longest journey of my life (16hours 20mins)!

Guys my ass became numb! embarassed Thank God it was a night flight, I just kept sleeping and watching movies on my phone. Couldn't watch their movies cause the earphone they gave me was trashy. Almost couldn't hear anything with it. With the whole noise from the aircraft. Though they had good collections of movies.

Fast forward >>>>> We landed Toronto Airport, the airport is a beauty! Jesus! Beauty at it's peak. Everything was too organised. I kept asking God who did this to Naija? Cause it's just not fair! Was going with the crowd, omo guys follow who know Road, and keep asking questions. Everybody in Canada is always happy to help in anyway they can.

I went straight to the Immigration Officers, I was fortunate, I didn't spend up to 15mins on the queue before it got filled up and crowded.

There was this stand where one Immigration Officer was loud and asking this Naija guy plenty of questions! In my mind I was like, God please don't let me go to this same guy! Pleaseeeeeee! Naso e reach my turn for Immigration, ghen ghen! Na that same man them post me go! Quickly told my siblings on WhatsApp to pray for me to pass this Immigration checks, they told me only my mama prayers should sort that out for me. And,

Guys guess what? This Man asked me for just my PASSPORT!!! That was all! And asked me how long I'd be studying and who my sponsor was, and where my school is. I didn't spend up to 45 seconds with him. And he printed my permit. Like I was like really? How? Covid-19 Test? Introduction Letter? Acceptance Letter? Proof of Fund? ArriveCan? Tuition Receipts? Vaccination Card? Everything wey i print out? Baba ask me something at least nah... grin Nothing! Only my Passport! Is God not wonderful? Loll.. He is for sure!

Proceeded to my next flight to Vancouver (Air Canada) The queue was terribly long. Was on queue for almost 50mins. After checks, I begin run again, normal level. I was like the second to the last person to board. Immediately, we left. Another 5hours flight! God I was tired of flying! � This journey ain't for the weak. I angrily forced myself to sleep. And kept seeing the series on my phone.

Finally, we arrived Vancouver! But unfortunately, my bags weren't complete. My bags were missing, they tracked it, and saw its still at Toronto, it didn't come in with the flight. Air Canada fall my hands for that one. Was disappointed. My apartment to the Airport is almost an hour drive. They offered to deliver it to me anyway, make i still dey observe them.

Guys I stepped out of the Airport in Vancouver, and the COLD that hit me, blood of Jesus Christ! I never believed it! It was just 12° ohh!! And to think Vancouver has the best weather in Canada? Haaaaa!

Na why people full here and it's extremely expensive. Guys make person no lie give you, Canada is extremely COLD!!!!!!
Thank God for my cousin who came to pick me up at the Airport.

It's 5:55am as I type this, and we're on 4°c, so prepare yourself please, and come with your winter jacket socks, head warmer and hand gloves, yes even if our own for Naija na rubbish, carry am come like that, e dey useful! Thanks to my sister and a friend in Vancouver that forced me to buy it.

So in a nutshell, I thank God for a safe trip into Canada. When I sit and reminisce on it, omo! This Canada isn't for the weak! I thank God for this platform (Nairaland), y'all are a blessing, also met good people that have turned friends through Nairaland.! A bigger chunk of thanks goes to my FAMILY. Without them, I wouldn't be here. Mehn, y'all are the real MVP!

The whole journey wouldn't have started at the first place.
Those delayed, please don't relent, please, it's definitely gonna be worth it in the end, those waiting for an update on their app, please keep praying and keep being optimistic, God would definitely perfect your application.

Guys story don finish, make i go back to sleep. I had to do this, make una no think say I don run, which I can't. grin

It has ended in praise for me. I hope it does same to each and everyone here.

Thank you. cool
