Good morning senior colleagues. Please help me o
I want to know how long does it takes to get a feedback on a study application after biometrics ?
Thanks in anticipation

After you've completed your biometrics for a study application, the time it takes to receive feedback can vary. Generally, it can take several weeks to a few months for the application to be processed and for you to receive a response. The exact timeline depends on various factors, such as the process of verifying your documents and the workload of the immigration authorities.

I understand that waiting for a response can be nerve-wracking, but try to stay positive and patient.

Please everyone!!!

So my first application got denied on the basis of the Visa Officer not being convinced I have enough funds to foot my tuition and stay in Canada.
After this, I asked my dad(my sponsor) to send the funds to my account.

I am about to apply again after gathering enough information from this great platform. But then I got my GCMS note saying I didn't show evidence of how my dad acquired his funds(even though I added his work documents).

Now my question is this, even though he has transferred the funds to my account and I will be explaining that in my SOP, do I still need to show proof of how my dad acquired the funds he is sponsoring me with?

In view of the above concerns, I can certainly help you with some guidance on what to include.

In the letter of explanation (LOE) for your next application, you can start by explaining the previous denial and the reason given by the Visa Officer regarding the funds. Then, you can mention that you have taken the necessary steps to address this concern by having your dad transfer the funds to your account.

Next, you can provide detailed information about your dad's source of funds. Include any relevant work documents, such as employment letters or pay stubs, to demonstrate his income and financial stability. Additionally, you can mention any other assets or investments he may have that contribute to his ability to sponsor you.

More importantly, make sure to explain the funds transfer and highlight the genuine nature of the sponsorship. Emphasize that the funds are intended solely for your education and living expenses in Canada.


Good luck with your application.

Hello….please if you are granted your Canada study visa and you are in Canada right…can you apply for a US visitor visa while you are in Canada? And if so, will they allow you to do the interview in Canada.

If you're granted a Canada study visa and you're in Canada, you can apply for a US visitor visa. However, the interview for the US visitor visa typically needs to be done at a US embassy or consulate outside of Canada. You'll need to schedule an appointment at the nearest US embassy or consulate in a country where you have legal entry. Keep in mind that the requirements and procedures for obtaining a US visitor visa may vary, so it's always a good idea to check with the specific embassy or consulate for the most up-to-date information. Good luck with your visa applications! 🌟

Please I need your assistance.
A friend visa was refusal on this ground.

This are the documents he uploaded and they are letterhead and signed by the institution as well
-Letter of Introduction from Institution
-Letter of Appointment As clerical Staff
-Redesignation letter as Lecturer
-Affidavit of Return
-statement of purpose

Please your advice

It seems like the rejection of your visa application was due to the documentation from your primary place of work lacking authenticity. This could have raised concerns about the overall credibility of your application. To tackle this issue, it's important to identify why the documentation was deemed lacking in authenticity. Was there a mistake or discrepancy in the information provided? Once you have identified the issue, you can take the following steps:

1. Review the documentation: Double-check all the information and ensure that it is accurate, complete, and properly supported.

2. Seek clarification: If you're unsure about any aspect of the documentation or the requirements, reach out to a legal professional for guidance.

3. Provide additional evidence: If there were any misunderstandings or gaps in the initial documentation, gather additional evidence to support the authenticity of your primary place of work. This can include employment contracts, pay stubs, tax records, or letters from your employer.

4. Submit a detailed explanation: Along with the additional evidence, write a clear and concise letter explaining the situation and addressing the concerns raised by the visa officer. Be honest, transparent, and demonstrate your commitment to complying with the visa requirements.

Remember, it's always advisable to consult with an immigration lawyer or expert who can provide personalized guidance based on your specific circumstances. Good luck, and I hope this helps you tackle the issue!

Please I have a question. Need help.

After a visa refusal in October. I reached out to my college for the next available intake but my program was not available till 2025.
I choose another programme to be able to defer for the next session I want.
What’s the best explanation to give the visa officer to avoid red flags.

Please help.


Thank you.

I understand that you're looking for the best explanation to give the visa officer to avoid any red flags. When explaining your situation, it's important to be honest and provide a clear and logical explanation. You can mention that after your visa refusal in October, you reached out to your college and unfortunately, your original program wasn't available until 2025. So, you made the decision to choose another program that is in tandem with your future goals and also that is flexible for deferment at any point in time. Emphasize that you're committed to your education and provide any supporting documents that can demonstrate your genuine intentions. Good luck! 🍀

Guys please🙏🙏 I need your input.


Can I use fund in my cooperative account as part of my proof of funds?

I will be attaching the statement of account in addition to my other bank account.

Yes, you can definitely use funds in your cooperative account as part of your proof of funds. It's great that you're planning to attach the statement of account from your cooperative account along with your other bank account statements from a commercial bank. Including multiple sources of funds can strengthen your application. Just make sure that the cooperative account meets the requirements set by the immigration authorities. Good luck with your application!

When using company sponsorship, does the company need to send some money into the applicant's personal account or the company's documents will suffice? Thanks 🙏

When it comes to company sponsorship, it's not necessary for the company to send money into the applicant's personal account. Usually, the company's documents, such as a sponsorship letter or financial statements, are sufficient to demonstrate the company's commitment to supporting the applicant. However, it's always a advisable to use someone that is closely related than a third party Sponsorship. All the best.

I'm 36years of age based in Qatar. my wife is in Nigeria. I have O’level(WAEC 2008) as my qualification. I also have HSE, First Aid, and Lifting Supervisor certificates. I have the money to cover my POF, I have a job that I'm doing here with LOE.
My question is, what are the possibilities and the program(S) and institutions that could accept me to move with my wife to Canada to study?

Pls, I need good and genuine advice from you.

Going by your profile, I'll suggest you applying for an Ontario College Diploma in a field that is directly relevant to your current experience in the health care sector. Check Niagara College or Conestoga College for their college programs.

Hello, please I need some help. My brother just gained admission and my husband and I want to be his sponsor, though my mom is still alive. I’m a PR in Canada and I have the proof of funds in CAD. Will his application be denied if I’m his sponsor?

That's great news about your brother's admission! As a Permanent Resident in Canada, you can definitely sponsor your brother's application. Having your mom alive shouldn't affect your eligibility to finance his studies. Just make sure you meet all the sponsorship requirements and provide the necessary proof of funds. It's always a good idea to develop strong ties back home that would compel his return home after studies.

Hello Everyone.

Please, I need your help with this.

I'm currently in school in Canada and my husband who is in Nigeria wants to apply for spousal work permit. I was wondering if I have to apply for him or he should apply by himself. I need to extend my study permit next month, can we apply together?

Your hubby can apply for his visa from his home country. Even if you can apply from there, his application will be taken back to the visa office that are in charge of processing applications from his country of residence. So, its best he applies from his end.

On the day I did my biometrics, I submitted an email different from the one used for the study permit application. Hope this wouldn't affect anything?

Not at all, they are quite independent, you shouldn't worry over it.

Is it really helpful doing the upfront medicals .....does it usually have an influence in the final decision because i see most people do upfront

It doesn't have any positive impact in the decision making, it only helps to save time of waiting for the officer to request for it. No other benefits attached.

Please gurus in the house I need advice I have submitted my SP application nov 3 I have valid medicals and biometrics (I was denied before and I have upfront medicals before I submitted ) when to do think I will get my ppr

No one has influence over the processing times, your application can be processed within a shorter period given that you've done biometrics and medical simultaneously in the past. Keep the high hopes and be positive.

Hello please do sponsor still need to submit statement of account for pof after depositing 10k into my cibc for the gic?
Would my sponsor statement of account still be requested for?

It depends if your course exceeds one year, then your sponsor still needs to tender their financial statement to prove their ability to finance subsequent years.

Hello ppl,

I worked for an unregistered business and I need to collect reference letter to show my time there. Will the fact that the business is not registered be a problem?

Absolutely yes!. Submitting a reference letter from an unregistered organization can be a problem. It could be seen as a fraudulent document and might jeopardize your application. It's important to make sure all your documents are legitimate and meet the requirements. Better to be safe than sorry!

Hello House, please I need clarification on this:

I'm studying a 4yr course and everyone keeps saying I should find the 4yr tuition as POF.

Please is this a must??

If you're being sponsored by someone (parents or siblings), they are to show proof of funds for just the first year of study. However, if you're the self-sponsoring yourself, then you're to provide adequate funds covering the entire duration of studies.

3 how long those it takes to get a visa
4 do I need to legalized my transcript before apply to schools?
5 finally I need your assistance on the follow question don't get angry with my questions
God bless you all.

1. Yes you can get a PGC course at Conestoga College with a third class grade, particularly IT business analysis.

2. Yes, you can apply for them at the same time with your application. Although, it would be cheaper and more preferably if you can apply alone first, after getting your visa, you can then file for your wife and the baby to accompany to Canada.

3. No one has the accurate timeframe as to when an immigration application can stay, however, going by the current processing times, you should get a response within 1 to 3 months of applying for your visa.

4. No, legalisation of your credentials is not part of the immigration process for Canada.


5. I hope my response is detailed enough to your satisfaction.
