There's nothing necessarily wrong with his email as most professors hardly respond to cold mails except they're really in need of students.

My advice is that you keep sending out as much as possible. Most importantly, when you check some universities' staff page, it will be clearly stated there if they're recruiting students or not. Chanel your energy to those recruiting.

Best wishes.

Good morning All, I have been trying to get a supervisor in Canada for a Master's program. I have sent out cold email to professors but I keep getting messages like 'I thank you for your interest but I do not have a position at this time. I wish you luck in your search.' or no reply at all.
I graduated with a second class honours upper division in Agricultural and Bioresources Engineering. And I have been writing to professors in Biological engineering in various school in Canada and since haven't gotten any positive reply.

Please is there any other way I could go about this because some universities requires contacting professor even before applying.

Hello, pls I am trying to submit my student visa application through GCkey but then my document sizes are larger than the maximum size per file (4mb). I tried compressing it but it's compressing it to only about 4%. I'd appreciate any assistance on the best way I can go about this.
Also, I was thinking if it is possible to send some through the portal and if there are other alternatives of sending documents maybe I could do that too.

Hello,

Could someone assist to answer this question.
If you erroneously answered yes to a disability question while applying to a school and you've been mailed by the school that they identify you have a disability after an offer to the school, how do you rectify this?
Is it okay to email them that you do not have a disability and you mistakenly submitted that in your application?

Hello Chiefs @gigdraft
Please help on this

Guest911:
Hello house, So back in 2020 I had a remote programming job and earned USD monthly. I have legit employer payslips and Payoneer account deposit receipts and DOM account statement as proof.

My savings in DOM account is enough for POF.

Since 2021 Feb I’ve been doing freelance work with no salary earnings and I registered a company with CAC.

Do I need to pay myself from my company as proof of employment and home tie?

Or is my deed of assignment and payslips from the abroad company enough for my home ties?

Also, the said property address corresponds to where I live both on the passport page and everything.

Hello gurus here please i have a question..
Deferring my intake and also to a different course because my initial course is full for jan intake will it affect my current visa application still waiting for a decision?

koreanlord:
@makano @frankrobnn @lekiboboe @bullstriker @gigdraft @justmellow @ketima @technix and all

Please I currently hold a masters degree from a university in Asia...

My aim now is to apply for a college admission in canada while I also create a stance in the express entry pool..

Although, I might return to nigeria for biometrics after I get a college admission...

Do you think that having a masters degree already would affect the VO's decision on my visa application?

Do I have to declare on my application that I already have a masters degree?

Virocrix:
Hello great friends,

Our glorious God just extended Favor to my family today. I received Teaching Assistantship offer from the University of Ottawa this evening.

I just raised a web form informing IRCC of the development, pleading with them to kindly expedite the processing of my application.

All glory to God.
We keep on giving thanks. God has answered our prayers. The wait is over guys. Be joyful please.
Cheers

Virocrix:
Good morning guys,

Please is it necessary to send email/webform concerning the expedition of my application?

I'm at the moment undergoing trainings for would-be Teaching Assistants. Resumption date is 7th of September, UOttawa. Medical passed but eligibility check yet to start.

To be candid, I submitted on the 13th of July.

Kindly let me know if it's necessary at this moment to send emails/webforms

Hi Immacbaby,

I would strongly advise you against booking that flight. 3 months before your enrollment date would raise the CBSA officer's suspicion.

Please do not even attempt it. Anything from 4 weeks is fine.

Love you and have a safe flight!
