Asapant:
Welldone Boss Frank.R. i've been looking forward to your response since all these while. buh a 16 months masters flew this week for TRv.

Asapant,

16months masters huh? I never said its impossible okay, but your reasons for going for such duration of program must be justifiable and convincing.

goingforward:
OMG very true, the 5707e does not contain information for siblings. The correct form is actually the 5645e as u mentioned. Thanks for the information. ( that's why its good to ask question oh). . Would delete and replace.

My village people say person wey ask question no dey miss road.

Gracias!

goingforward.

goingforward,

If you're applying online the family form there is the old one IMM5645E, so make use of it and if you're applying through paper route you're expected to make use of the new family form IMM5707E which excludes adding your siblings details. None of these forms are wrong, anyone that said this, is spreading a false information.

Best of luck!

hasalau:

hasalau,

Applicants going for studies in Canada are expected to fill the IMM1294E form and not the IMM5257 which was written on the online dashboard as OPTIONAL.

Asapant:
Frank.R

1 year masters, which has academic consistency. UG related to intend masters program. Compared to PGd college 2 years UG related to pG course as well...

Do you think there's higher rate for TRV to fly for the PGD compared to masters of 1 year duration ?

Are you saying master of 1 year duration is likely to be questiond based on L.O.P stay ?

Asapant

Sir, sorry for the late response okay.
Well, I'm not a Visa officer nor a guru. But, I advise people based on experience and what I learnt so far on Canadian student visa.

If a masters degree applicant applied for a year program in Canada, the applicant must have a justifiable reason for going for a year (12 months) masters degree in Canada. Few out of applicants with a year masters degree program will scale through while majority will be refused based on length of stay in Canada and purpose of visit.

Applicant going for a 2 years PGD that is relevant to their previous discipline of study/job role because their CGPA wasn't up to the minimum 2.1 requirement for a masters degree program in Canada will easily scale through than an applicant going for a year masters degree in Canada.


All the best!

Hell Frankrobbn1,
Now that study visa applications are being processed in Nairobi, would it be wise to still stick to the above address?

kindly advice

With the new contradictions, it's best to continue addressing all letters to your local embassy or that of Ghana.

Deputy High Commission of Canada,
4 Anifowoshe Street,
Victoria Island,
P.O. Box 54506
Lagos, Nigeria.

OR,

adel3951:
Please can you clarify on that is it that they don't process in Ghana again just Nairobi and Lagos. I'm confused please?

Lagos now process study permit? I haven't come across that. I only noticed the Kenya (Nairobi) office.

Ratawu:
Even Lagos office is now processing study permit

Ratawu,

Lagos does not process study permit. VFS office acknowledges/recieves documents while all correspondence are couriered to Accra Ghana, which after successful processing of applicant visa, it will then be transferred to their local VFS office for passport submission/pick up. But currently, I noticed that all correspondence are now treated at:

High Commission of Canada,

Stay safe!

sweetmb4real200:
Been on this thread as a newbie for days, been reading and going through thread before applying and I must say you've been of great assistance.I am about applying to alberta university for fall 2018 as the application is still on for electrical engineering graduate. this are my questions and I will be glad to get answers; from several replies on here,
1) I can see different saying such as (it's better to apply to colleges for pgd instead of university for masters. my concern is I graduated with a 2.1 in electrical engineering, won't my application to colleges for pgd be questioned even tho I am well informed of the fact colleges offer more practical training for pgd courses which I am particular about, secondly; may I know if some colleges are still accepting application for fall 2018. I would appreciate if you can list some colleges. been trying to navigate my way on google also.but I love the information on here . thank you @frankrobben

sweetmb4real200,
Sorry for the late response Sir/Ma. I have been busy lately.
Don't be in a hurry to apply to a college for a PGD, your best sell here is to apply for a Masters degree that would be relevant to your previous studies/job role on the discipline of electrical engineering since you graduated from the University with a 2.1 than settling for a PGD in a college.

My advise!

seglius:
Sir,
I am writing with the sad mind and anticipation for your guidance on my application to Canada. this is my second time of denial which states as follow:
my first denial was based on the course I choose to study, that it wasn't in light with my previous course, my precious course was chemical engineering while the chosen course was international development. I contacted the school and they changed the course for me to biotechnology, then I reapplied.
my second denial was based as attached the document sir. pls, help me out. because I am planning to reapply for the third time. pls help me.
I will like to talk to you verbally for better comprehension.

seglius,

You're continually doing the wrong thing.
Change your intended program so it could be relevant to your previous studies/job role. So, your best bet here for your next application to scale through is to go for a Msc/Pgd on the discipline of chemical engineering. Lastly, order for your GCMS note and don't reapply blindly without showing concerns to your previous refused application.

kingfintan:
...I hope this helps thanks for the information sir, tho my sponsor is my biological brother, and a professor in in a University in the USA.. he intends to send statement and affidavit of sponsorship from USA and other document.. wount that be enough sir? As he will pay my tuition by month end from there..

kingfintan,
Not just paying tuition fees, as it is not a prerequisite to Visa approval. Also provide documents to evident his source of income.
Gainfully employed- provide his employment letters, payslips, promotion letters, increment letters, appointment letters etc..
Get documents to show proof of relationship with your brother... Like, Birth certificates and international passport bio data page.

All the best!

swisster:
.

yes they are..

how do i solve that of travel history?

swisster

Travel history should be the least of your problem. Tackle other refusal grounds and travel history will be waived.

Gifty28:
Good evening all, please do Canadian universities accept 2:2 for masters degree program? i think have asked this question before not sure i was answered. please i need responses

Gifty28

No they don't. Canadian institutions require a minimum of 2.1 for a masters degree. Well, few institutions consider your last 2 years grade in the University, so you should be looking out for such institution.

chibertha:
What if it's a company that has training as one of its core values for its staff and had mentioned it in the appointment letter given at time of recruitment.
Do they still need letter of sole signatory from any board member.

chibertha,
You pm me right? Check your email I have answered this question.
For the sake of others, i'll answer it again on the forum.

A company can decide to sponsor an applicant studies to Canada with convincing reasons to why the company is spending so much on the employee and what he/she has done to deserve such treatment/benefit from the said company and the number of years the employee has been working for the company matters a lot. A third party sponsorship must show proof of commitment towards financing an applicant studies in Canada, i.e either paying full tuition or transferring funds into applicant dorm/naira account.

Since is the company that will be the sponsor to the applicant, they should present a board resolutions letter stating that they are fully aware of this sponsorship and funds will be made available to the applicant during his/her stay in Canada.
So in this case you don't need a letter from the employer stating he/she is the sole signatory to the account. Since it's a company sponsorship. You need a sole signatory letter from the bank, only if the employer is the sponsor to the applicant.

All the best!

bbclue:
Una Good afternoon oooooooooo

Please if someone has an HND in Business Administration. ......and now want to further his study in Canada please which is advisable. ....is it a ONE year PGD in a University or Advanced post graduate diploma which is 2years in a college........which is better.......I appreciate anybody view...

bbclue,

The length of your program has alot to do with your visa application. I best suggest you go for a 2 years PGD program in a college that is reasonable with your previous studies/job role than a year program in university.

The reason why I said this, is because most applicants going for a short term program (a year) in Canada are most times tagged by a Visa officer that such applicant is not a genuine student that is using study permit as a means to facilitate entry into Canada.

I saw some folks here saying going for a PGD in college is always tough to acquire visa, this is totally a falsified belief and I must refute that fact. If you can package your application tightly and present a convincing SOP to support your application, your application will turn out to be successful. So, please don't be deceived with that misleading ideology.

All the best!

Jewel80:
Please for people that already started their application or have applied before online...that document page that requests for your digital photo, how do i do that one?

You need to upload your passport photographs there.

Slik07:

vibrant99,

Very interesting seeing someone speaking on my behalf with wrong information about me. All the same, keep up with the good job.

jnyuwa02:
What happened to Frankrobbn1? He has gone AWOL again .

jnyuwa02,

Funny man.... I have not been around due to the tight engagement I'm having recently, but I'm back fully to contribute my quota for the betterment of this great platform. So the young man is still active and hasn't gone AWOL as you've just said.
Nice job you're doing here. Keep up with the good works and success to each and everyone of us.

All the best!

Lemia:
Hi guys

What's the difference between the IMM5645E and IMM5707E Family information forms??

Also I couldn't find the link to the IMM5645E. Anyone who can help would be highly appreciated

Lemia,

Go ahead with the IMM5707E form, you're on the right track. No cause for alarm.

Aallizzwellwole:
Hello Gurus in the house...
Pls I need your help, I need someone to put me through, on how to link paper application with online application.. T

Aallizzwellwole,

Read previously, using the below link.
https://www.nairaland.com/4390108/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/33#66255587

jnyuwa02:
You downloaded an incomplete or wrong form, siblings information is still there.

jnyuwa02,

The form has been changed to IMM5707E for paper route applicants, so the fellow is still on the right track.

annaliese88:
So from the screenshot I attached, it’s obvious that there are two forms. The one without the siblings info is what is available now. However they probably know some people are still using the pld form. Now the question is, since I also have the old form, should I use that instead?

annaliese88,

You don't need to worry about this, the family form has been changed to IMM5707E no longer the usual IMM5654E. So you're expected to fill the IMM5707E for paper route which doesn't require you to input your siblings details. Online applicants still makes use of the old IMM5654E, with time it will be updated on the online portal.

All the best!

Hello All,
I have been busy all this while with some running around and works to catch up, this has lead to my absence from the forum.
Wow! Within this past few days the thread is at page 50. What's derailing it? Let me read up quickly.....

Nice job to those assisting in helping out others here. I'm back fully

jnyuwa02:
The stipulation of the law is that “anybody” in Canada can order a GCMS note for you for $5.

jnyuwa02,

Anyone as you say, can't be/stay in Canada, you must have a legal permit before you can stay in Canada. So as I said before, be it a citizenship, permanent residence, student or visitor not just ANYONE

seyo99:
Hello house pls how do I apply for GCMS file ?

seyo99,

Use the below link to order for your GCMS Note. It goes for $5, but you will require someone who is a Permanent Residence of Canada, a citizenship , a Visitor, or a student that is legally residing in Canada to help order this note for you. You will need to input their address on the form, fill the form and resend it back to them to order the note on your behalf.

Or better still, ask for the person's address over there in Canada, download the form and complete payment here in Nigeria.

Welcome back professor frank.....

My boss! I remain loyal. Thank you Sir.

Damidolly:
Can I use my sister as my sponser and shows her POF to VO?

Yes you can use your biological sister as a sponsor to your visa application.

Prudento:
Please someone? Do answer me, I'm knda lost here o. Abeg

Prudento,
Your first year of study is what is required of you and not the 2 years duration of your stay.
Tuition=?
Room and board = 10kCAD
Others = 3KCAD=
Tuition + Room and board + others = Funds available for your stay.

NobleA007:
Nice to see you back @Frankrobbn1. You and @Jnyuwa02 is doing a great job here on this thread..Keep it up and Godbless you both.
