Good evening house
Do anybody knows how I can go about this Nova Scotia community college
I finished my secondary school in 2015 and I only have my Neco result and I wanted to apply to Nscc for a diploma in social services for Fall 2022
But when applying I didn’t see how I can upload my result
Please anybody that know about it please help a sister
Please gurus and many more
If you’re applying to nscc too or you’re there already please help me out

Forget about NSCC, for getting study permit with this school is oftentimes difficult. Try some of the good colleges in Ontario even though they might appear expensive, but they have better prospects of getting approval. The visa officer knows that you're applying to NSCC because the school is relatively very cheap and easier to secure permanent residency after studies. This information is based on my wealth of experience dealing with diverse immigration applications. In
spite of everything, the final decision is yours to make . Best of luck!

Please can your student visa be approved if you make half payment of your tuition and accommodation fee?

Tuition payment is not a prerequisite for visa approval. Unless mandatory by the institution, you don't need to make any travel plans such as payment of upfront tuition fees, payment of accommodation fees in Canada and registration of courses without a visa.

Here is a clearer version of my GCMS notes. I was refused on just personal asset and financial status.
I am a funded applicant with funding of 16,500cad of which I am to pay 5,030 as school fees and would be left with 11,000cad.

I do not also think my sop was poorly written.

The visa officer is not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the completion of your studies. The incentives of you remaining in Canada far outweighs your motivation of coming back to Nigeria. More importantly, the officer noted that you've weak travel history which doesn't count as a postive factor in his assessment. You've a very good profile that will make you a deserving candidate for a Canadian study permit. Work on your economic ties back home e.g proof of ownership of properties in your name or getting deed of gift documents showing your parents have transferred a particular land/building to you. Also capitalise on your future goals and career prospects in Nigeria and use your SOP to sell yourself wisely on how your proposed program would be of great benefit to your career and the change you will translate to your home country after studies.

Please �, is it acceptable by IRCC for a married man with kids to get "gift of deed" for POF... I am working with average monthly salary in flow. Regular inflow for like 2 years now, but not accumulated. I can raise the tuition but need my eldest brother to give me some money as "gift of deed" to augment for the cost of living....
Please good people of this great house should help...

I wouldn't advice a married man with kids to submit a "deed of gift" in his application. This would raise concerns that you're not sufficiently well-established in your home country and the officer will question your intention of wanting to study in Canada when you've to seek for external bodies/relatives to help you fund your account. It further increases doubts that your family will not be well catered for in your absence.

As a young adult in his mid 20’s.. is it advisable i use my bank statement with a very substantial sum as proof of funds?

Age doesn't matter insofar that you can establish how you got the accrued funds and its source. The visa officer would approve your visa.

Good morning Nairalanders.
I am about to register for CAC. Do I necessary need to link it with a corporate account?
If I decide to use my savings account to receive money for the business in as much as it's not more than 500k per day I hope that will not negatively affect my chances of getting approval from IRCC?

Can someone book for Biometrics before submitting or immediately submitting application before IRCC sends notification?

You can book for an upfront medicals and submit a copy of the E-medical slip with your application package to IRCC. It is a known fact that upfront medicals helps to speed up the application process as you would no longer be waiting for IRCC to send you the request.

Good day gurus in the house, please I wàs refused on the following grounds:
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in
subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your family ties in Canada and in your country of
residence.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in
subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your personal assets and financial status.
Please I was refused on the 8th of February 2022. Please how can I tackle these, this is my third term that I wàs denied. I'm planning to apply again and I'm using my cousin as my sponsor now.... Please guru in the house..

I regret to hear about the refusal of your study permit. Did your cousin show any proof of commitment by paying part of your tuition deposit to the school as well as transferring funds to your bank account?. From my understanding of the refusal grounds mentioned by the visa officer, they are not convinced that you will have full access to funds in your cousin's account. Work on showing funds at your disposal and establishing strong proof of relationship with your sponsor.

Hello guys, I'm currently doing my masters in UK. I'd like to apply for another masters degree in Canada when I'm done here in September. Can one let me know what the process is, can I apply and submit my application from the uk or need to come back to naija?
Thanks

You will be required to apply from your home country where you've adequate ties. Unless you've an active post graduate work permit in the UK, only on this account are you eligible to apply from there. Although, I have weighed both chances applying from UK and Nigeria, and from my findings, it is much more easier getting a Canadian visa from Nigeria than UK.

And again i was filling a school form online but they told me to first run a year course in nigeria before applying to thr college because i hv been out of school for almost 10 years wahala no com too much laidisss

You can't opt for an IT program if you don't have any professional Certifications or experience in this field. It will be difficult convincing the immigration officer that you're a genuine applicant who intends to pursue the desired course and would depart from Canada after studies.

Niaralanders,
I need guidance.
My spouse applied for study permit in May 2021, with my child last year. She got her Study permit late last year but my son’s application is yet to get a decision. I filled a webform 2weeks ago concerning his application.
Now, we the rest of the family want to apply for our visitors visa. I don’t when is the appropriate time. Is it while she is still in Nigeria or when she gets to Canada?

The best will be when she is in Canada, you can through her influence in Canada apply to visit her. The application will be prioritised rather than applying as a tourist which takes a longer processing times.

Practical Nursing Program is a diploma course and with your degrees (BSc and MSc) I don't see a reasonable progression. The course you should apply for will be contingent on your work experience and not your previous education.

Hi guys
I’m new here and I just have a question to ask
So far from previous testimonies,
has anyone had success rate of spouse applying before the applicant traveled and gotten a visit visa
Or applying at the same time with the student visa (like visit visa and student visa together)
No children
Pls your replies would be much appreciated
Help a sister in distress cry

@frankrobbin1 pls attend to this

From the wisdom of my vast experiences, i will advice you not to apply for a visa when your spouse hasn't landed Canada. The SIN and study permit which are issued at the point of entry are important documents to be included in a Spousal Open Work Permit or Visitor's visa of the accompanying spouse. Should you apply without these documents, your application will not be processed in a timely manner.

On the other scenario you mentioned, I will recommend that your spouse goes first before you can put in for your application to join her in Canada. This will considerably help her application build strong ties back home.

Good day to guys
Pls I’m about to start my application journey but I have one concern, which is, I’ve been using my father’s name as my surname since my childhood (firstborn) while my siblings are using our family name as their surname, will this affect my home ties in any way?

You must provide a written note (LOE) with respect to the change of name, you can easily make excuse with the point that you're the first born son and according to the custom and tradition of your local community, it is mandatory that the first born son bears the father's name as his surname, for you're the heir apparent to your dad.

Hi guys
So GCMS just got in:
Reason: Purpose of visit

Course studies: Environmental Management

The study plan does not appear reasonable given the applicant's employment and education history.
I note that:
-the client's previous studies were in an unrelated field
-the client has previous studies at a higher academic level than the proposed studies in Canada
-the client's proposed studies are not reasonable given their career path

@Teemenzo @makano @Time2soar1 @Davidbanky @frankrobbn1

I'm interested in handling difficult and complex cases like this with several rejections. This is my expertise!

In view of the above concerns highlighted by the responsible immigration officer, there are strong doubts as to why a graduate of Environmental Mgmt, working as Manager/Supervisor is applying to pursue a PGC in Occupational Health, Safety and Wellness program at Conestoga College. The visa officer is not convinced that you've bona-fide intention to study this course in light of the fact that your employment history and previous degree doesn't demonstrate a reasonable progression. It further raises concerns that you're using study visa as a route to facilitate entry into Canada rather than career advancement.


In a bid to salvage these enumerated concerns of the officer, my professional advice for you is to seek for a master's that is directly relevant to your current employment - Management. Apply this advice of mine in your fourth application with a well-worded LOE put up with encyclopaedia evidence, your application will be a success. All the best

Hi guys...I applied for undergraduate nursing in macewan university. I already hold a bsc degree in geology with a third class. I graduated last year and I am currently doing my nysc. Please house I’d like to know if this would not come out as lack of degree/career progression.

Why opt for a second degree and spend millions to pursue another 4 years course in Canada?. My suggestion is that you should apply for a diploma in practical nursing program (2 years), since you're passionate about having a nursing career. Apply this conceptual action I have given to you and thank me later

Can someone have 2 home countries when writing a SOP? Cos the person is working in a country which is the country of birth but spent much part of his education in another country where his major assets are in.

You can't have two home countries at same time unless you've citizenship in both countries. Your focus when writing your sop should be targeted on how you can achieve your goals and translate them back to the country where you're presently working which is the country of birth. You can mention about your ties to another country, however your center of interest should be based on your country of citizenship.

I got married last year, and I have done change of name. But my passport still holds my maiden name, and I used my maiden name to apply for my admission and Study Permit. Hope this won’t be an issue as some of my documents like bank statement is changed to my husband’s surname name(to show relationship as we planed applying together with our son)

Even if you don't change your maiden name to your husband's surname, it still doesn't matter. I have handled several applications whereby the wife haven't changed her name and got approved. To address this concerns of yours, ensure you've included an affidavit of change of name and address same in your personal statement.

I have question about this “counterfoil”, what does it mean?
Mine says it expires next year and my course is a two year course….

Also at what point does the LOI drop?

Counterfoil states the duration of the visa issued to you on your international passport by the Canadian consulate. You will notice this update on your MyCIC account once a visa has been issued and dispatched to your mailing address.

The LOI - letter of Introduction, will be updated on your profile after you've received the stamped visa passport at your address. With regards to the validity of the visa given to you, it sometimes happens, you will have to apply for an extension within Canada.
