subzheero: Hey everyone, I have some interesting news to share with you all. So, it turns out that the person, Mr. Matthew Olaoluwa Ikumoniyi who has been badmouthing my consultancy firm is actually an agent himself! Can you believe it? They go by the name "Genuine Travel Consultant - Canada" on Facebook. Attached is a screenshot of his page!. Here's the kicker: this person, Matthew Olaoluwa Ikumoniyi had the audacity to come to this honourable forum to speak ill about students using agents for their applications, all while secretly being an agent himself. Talk about hypocrisy, right? It seems like there's a whole lot of envy going on here. Instead of starting a competition he can't even defend, he should focus on building his own brand. I mean, come on, let's be real here. There's room for everyone to succeed without resorting to false accusations and shady tactics just to draw more clients to yourself. At the end of the day, I believe in the power of my own services and the value i bring to my clients without any form of criticism!. Its all about helping students achieve their goals and providing top-notch support. That's what matters most. Be warned for the very last time, this would be my last response to any of your posts. Go and build your own brand and stop criticising my profile. It will end in praise

subzheero: Compliment of the season to everyone, I want to take a moment to address some recent comments made about me. I understand that criticism is a part of doing business, and I appreciate the opportunity to respond. Firstly @subzheero, upon initial contact with our firm, you were informed that should your visa be refused, we do charge for reapplication, but we offer a discounted rate of 50%. This was clearly highlighted in the retainer agreement form before you had retained us to work on your application. The communication and how the entire process works, was made known to you right from the start. Regarding the claim that we wrote a shabby Statement of Purpose (SOP) resulting in a rejection, I take this feedback seriously. We have a team of experienced professionals who work diligently to create strong and compelling SOPs tailored to each individual's unique background and aspirations. While we strive for excellence, we understand that not every application will have a positive outcome. However, our track record of approvals far outweighs our rejections. It's important to remember that the decision ultimately lies with the immigration authorities, and there are various factors they consider not just the sop. The feedback presented here implying that your application was refused due to being poorly presented and prepared by me is not correct. The sop was also shared with you prior to submission as it required your approval. The application package was approved for submission by you, as there were no concerns at that point. It was only after receiving a negative outcome that you expressed concerns, which are here in this online feedback. I also want to emphasize that even the best law firms in Canada receive negative reviews. It's impossible to please everyone, but I am committed to learning from feedback and continuously improving in my services. Wishing you all the best in your future endeavors It will end in praise 5 Likes |

danowena: It might be better for you to apply alone first to increase your chances of getting the visa and also to strengthen your home ties by showing that you'll be coming back after your studies. Once your visa is approved and you're still in Nigeria, you can then apply for your eldest daughter to travel with you to Canada. When applying for her visa during this time, you can change the story a bit and explain that she can't cope being alone back home and would really appreciate her companionship. Just make sure to provide all the necessary documentation and information to support your case. Good luck with the applications, and I hope everything works out for you and your family!

shinaxurdick: In general being self sponsored, it's a good idea to show POF for the entire duration of your program, which includes tuition fees and living expenses. This demonstrates that you have the financial means to support yourself throughout your studies without working to pay for your fees in Canada.

juliusocean: Hey there!, While a newly registered business may raise some initial concerns for the visa officer, it doesn't necessarily mean it will negatively impact your visa application. The key is to provide clear and detailed documentation to demonstrate the legitimacy and stability of the business. This can include business registration documents, financial statements, previous invoices, contracts or agreements, and any other relevant information that showcases the viability and existence of the business over the past few years. It's important to present a strong case and address any potential concerns proactively in your application. Good luck, and I hope everything goes smoothly for you! π€π It will end in praise |

Josephhh: When it comes to proving your Proof of Funds (POF), in addition to your statement of account and your uncle's statement of account, you may want to include a letter of support from your uncle. This letter can explain the nature of the transfer from his company's account and how he has been supporting you financially over the years. It's also a good idea to include any relevant documentation, such as bank statements or transaction records, to show the regular monthly allowance he has been sending you. These additional documents can help provide a comprehensive picture of your financial situation and strengthen your visa application. Good luck with your submission! π€π It will end in praise |

hardeydara213: Hey there! I understand that you're in a bit of a tight spot with the payment deadline for your diploma program in Canada. It's great that you want to seize this opportunity! One option you could explore is reaching out to the college or financial aid office to explain your situation. They may be able to provide guidance or offer extension of payment deadline. Additionally, you could consider exploring scholarship opportunities or looking into short-term loans to cover the payment temporarily.

Ebdumi: When it comes to showing proof of employment, a pay slip is commonly used to demonstrate consistent income. However, if you don't have pay slips, a statement of account can be a valid alternative. It can show regular deposits from your employer, indicating your employment status. The number of months required is a minimum of 4 months. Hope that helps! ππ It will end in praise 1 Like |

Momoney77: It's great to hear about your fish pond business and your landed property. When it comes to showing evidence in your Statement of Purpose (SOP), it's generally a good idea to provide supporting documents for any claims you make. Including a picture of your fish pond could be a helpful visual representation of your business. It can showcase your dedication and expertise. So, including a picture of your fish pond could be a nice touch! π πΈ Additionally, registering your business with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) is indeed important. It not only provides proof of the legitimacy of your business but also adds credibility and professionalism to your venture. So, along with showcasing evidence of your fish pond, having your business registered will strengthen your application. Good luck with your application! ππ It will end in praise 1 Like |

Btycoon: I totally get your concern about the admissions from Holland and not wanting to miss the fall intake. It's great that you've received a student number from them, which shows that they are processing your application. While I can't guarantee admission, having a student number is somewhat a positive sign but not assured. As for people not talking about Holland, it doesn't necessarily mean it's not a good school. It could simply be that it's not as well-known or popular among the people you've interacted with. It's always a good idea to do some research on the school, check their accreditation, programs, and student reviews to get a better idea of its reputation. If you're still concerned about missing the fall intake, it might be a good idea to proceed with applying to your fourth choice school as a backup plan. That way, you can have more options and increase your chances of getting accepted for the fall intake. It's very important to choose a school that aligns with your goals and offers the programs and opportunities you're looking for. Don't hesitate to reach out to the admissions offices of the schools you're interested in for more information or clarification. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions or need further assistance. Good luck with your applications! π€π It will end in praise |

Momoney77: That's great news that you have a sponsor who can cover all your expenses. The specific amount of funds you need in your account may vary depending on the cost of the program. It's always a good idea to have enough funds to show that you can support yourself during your studies. Having a substantial amount in your account can demonstrate your ability to cover any miscellaneous expenses you might incur in Canada and also act your personal financial establishment in your home country.

shinaxurdick: When explaining the funds in your letter of explanation, you can mention that your sponsor received a substantial amount from an investment company, which appeared as a credit alert on his statement. You can clarify that this amount was intended as an investment and it was liquidated for the sole purpose of your education and not a loan for personal use. It's important to provide as much detail as possible and emphasize the purpose of the funds in supporting your study. While I can't guarantee visa approval, I have seen similar scenarios where applicants successfully explained the source of their funds in their letters of explanation. Just make sure to be transparent and provide any supporting documentation or evidence that can validate the legitimacy of the funds. Remember, being honest and clear in your explanation is key.

Teejay2033: Hey there! Great to hear from you. I can definitely help answer your questions: 1. The average processing time for a student visa can vary depending on several factors, such as the country you're applying from and the specific circumstances of your application. It's best to check with the IRCC for the most up-to-date information on processing times. 2. That's awesome news that your spouse secured an admission for September 2024! Starting your application now is a good idea because it gives you plenty of time to gather all the necessary documents and complete the application process. It's always better to start early to avoid any last-minute rush. 3. Starting your application now shouldn't cause any undue delay. In fact, it can actually help ensure that you have enough time to complete all the necessary steps and submit a strong application. Just make sure to follow the application guidelines and submit all the required documents within the given timelines. I hope that helps!

lady25: I'm here to help answer your questions about your student visa application and your husband's application. Let's dive right in: 1. When filling out your own application form, you don't need to indicate that you are applying with your spouse. In fact, it can actually be beneficial to mention that your husband will be staying back as a strong tie to your home country. This shows that you have a solid reason to return after your studies. It's all about showcasing your intentions and ties to your home country. 2. If GTBank can send the bank statement directly to the embassy, that's great! You can select the option to upload the bank statement on the application portal alongside with your supporting proof of funds documents, but make sure to mention in your explanation letter youβve attached a copy of the mybank statement certificate with your application. This way, the embassy will be aware of the arrangement. 3. After you receive your visa and begin your husband's application, it's generally expected that you will still use your own bank account for proof of funds. However, it's always a good idea if your husband can also provide additional documentation or proof of funds in his name as well. Be sure to provide all the necessary information and documentation to support his application. Good luck with your applications! π€β¨ It will end in praise 3 Likes |

TomisinFemi: Absolutely, it is possible for the spouse of someone who previously studied in Canada and had a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) to apply for a Study Permit as well. The spouse can apply for an Open Work Permit, also known as a Spouse or Common-Law Partner Work Permit (SOWP). This allows them to work in Canada while their partner is studying. It's a great opportunity for both of them to be in Canada together. Just make sure to check the specific eligibility requirements and application process for the SOWP.

Ultimateagent: In general, the approval of Proof of Funds (POF) for Canadian visa applications usually happens after the biometrics process. Biometrics is typically one of the initial steps in the visa application process, where your fingerprints and photo are taken. After that, the immigration authorities will review your application, including the POF documentation, to assess your financial eligibility. So, it's usually after the biometrics stage.

realpearl: I totally get your concern about using your sibling's bank statement as proof of funds (POF) for your application. As an immigration expert, I can offer some precise advice based on your situation. Typically, when using a sponsor's bank statement as POF, it's important to show a clear and documented transfer of funds from your sponsor's account to your own account. This helps establish that the funds are available to you for your studies. It would be a good idea to have your sibling transfer the required living expenses funds to your own account and also present her own statement as the sponsor. This way, you can provide evidence of the transfer, ensuring that the funds are clearly documented and traceable. Good luck with your application! π€β¨ It will end in praise 2 Likes |

opebajo11: I understand how frustrating and helpless you must be feeling right now. It's important to have transparency and access to your own application status. You mentioned that your agent refused to give you the IRCC login credentials and provided excuses about the portal upgrade. It does seem a bit suspicious, especially when your friends were able to provide you with screenshots of their own dashboard. You have the UCI number, which is great! You can try creating a new account on the IRCC portal and linking your application to the new account. From there you can track the status of your application using your UCI and Application number. Visit the official IRCC website and look for the "GC Key" section. There, you should be able to create an account for yourself and get an update on your application. If you continue to have concerns or doubts about your agent's actions, it might be worth considering consulting with an immigration expert for further guidance.

lastbornop: Let's clarify your situation for your application. Since you're doing a family application, it's important to consider the best approach for your Proof of Funds (POF). 1. Regarding the POF, if you have 35 million in your own bank account and your sister is giving you an additional 1 million, it may be best to showcase those funds as your own. You can provide the necessary documentation for your own bank account and the gift from your sister. 2. If you decide to use your husband's account, you would need to provide a letter of explanation to clarify that the funds in his account are available to support your studies. However, it's worth noting that using your own funds and your sister's gift may provide a clearer representation of your financial situation. It doesn't matter if the entire funds are saved up in your account for this project, one matters is the availability of the funds. Good luck with your application! ππ It will end in praise 1 Like |

unkuwonu: When it comes to Proof of Funds (POF), it's generally recommended to get a physical copy of the bank statement from your bank. However, if the physical copy appears to be bulky and difficult to compress when uploading it on the IRCC portal, you can definitely use the electronic copy instead. It saves space and is easier to compress. Just make sure that the electronic copy is electronically signed and stamped, so it's still considered valid and official. This way, you can save some hassle and make the application process smoother. As for using a personal POF different from the sponsor's, it can be a good idea in some cases. It shows that you have your own financial resources to support your studies. However, it's important to make sure that the funds are genuinely yours and that you can provide the necessary documentation to support it. Good luck with your application π. It will end in praise |

idirect: I understand that you're seeking an explanation for the reason your study permit application was refused. The refusal letter stated that "The purpose of your visit to Canada is not consistent with a temporary stay based on the details you provided in your application". To address this concern in your reapplication, it's important to clearly demonstrate that your intention is to study in Canada temporarily and that you have a solid plan for your studies. You can do this by providing additional supporting documents such as an acceptance letter from the educational institution, a detailed study plan, and any relevant information about your future career goals. It's also crucial to ensure that all the information you provide in your application is accurate, consistent, and aligns with the purpose of a temporary stay. If there were any discrepancies or missing information in your previous application, make sure to address those in your new application and provide a clear explanation in your Letter of Explanation (LOE). More importantly, showcasing your previous education or current work experience in your application is crucial to solidify your purpose of visit, especially when applying for a study permit. By demonstrating how your course of study aligns with your educational background or professional experience, you can provide a strong rationale for your temporary stay in Canada. When preparing your application, make sure to highlight the relevance of your previous education or work experience to the program you wish to pursue in Canada. Show how your past academic or professional achievements have equipped you with the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in your chosen field of study. Attaching supporting documents such as academic transcripts, diplomas, or employment certificates can further enhance your application. These documents serve as tangible evidence of your qualifications and demonstrate your commitment to furthering your education in Canada. I hope this helps, Best of luck with your study permit reapplication! πβ¨. It will end in praise |

Kimzy4u: It is an awesome news that you reapplied for your student visa. It sounds like you made some great progress with your proof of funds (POF) and school fees. Based on the information you shared, it seems like you've increased your POF to 18.5 million and paid an additional 2,000 CAD towards your school fees, bringing it to a total of 20,000 CAD. That's fantastic! As an expert in this field, my official assessment baed on your case shows like you've addressed the previous concern of low proof of funds. You've proven to have sufficient funds to cover your tuition fees and living expenses during your studies. Let's hope for a positive decision this time.
