TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 19 by greis1: 10:59am On Aug 06, 2021
Had to go back to my last post on pg 280 to drop my timeline smiley

First Application: March 2020
Refused- May 2020
Second Application: July 11 2020
Upfront medical- July 10 2020
Refused- August 23 2020
Judicial Review- September 2020
Settlement offer- October 2020
Application reopened- December 10 2020
Medical passed- February 28 2021
BVL- March 11 2021
Medical expired, new request and submission- July 2021
PPR- August 6, 2021

My application was quite complicated—
*at the time JR was done, I didn’t have an admission anymore (the college had even refunded me); I had to look for a new school (different program and province) and upload new LOA within the 30-day timeline.
*According to the GCMS notes I got in June 2021, PPR was issued in April for the old LOA, and this was later cancelled after the visa officer noticed the new LOA.

Hello Everyone,

I've been an active reader for a while now.
My SP journey has been a ride.
I applied on my own March 2020, and got refused 2 months after due to 'situation of employment' - even though I have a full-time job and submitted all required documents. I engaged an IRCC consultant and reapplied in July 2020, refused again- 1-year tuition paid, and had a reasonable amount of funds left in my POF. Then I went through JR in August, application reopened after the settlement offer.

(On the side---- after JR, I started learning French, finished my masters, passed TEF some weeks ago, and my CRS is now 536)

Back to the study permit, my GCMS notes arrived some days ago and I noticed that the application was approved in March (eligibility, criminality, and medical passed) and PPR was to be issued on March 11, then the status changed to "canceled" on the next page. (I changed my college in between because at the time JR verdict was out, I didn't have admission anymore in the first college, and no other available intake for the next 2 semesters)... so the approval was for the previous college (I saw this in the notes). I actually received Medical and BVL updates around that time too.

Towards the end of May, IRCC sent an update saying they are reviewing my additional documents (the new LOA).

That's the update so far. We are still waiting. We are also hoping FSW opens soon.

Congratulations to all PPR candidates, and all the best to 'us' awaiting PPR.

Nastan:
My good people of Nairaland, Calvary greetings to you all!

I have come again for your worthy advise as usual.

I am going for a 2yrs baccalaureate Diploma, commencing in Winter term, and I'm planning to submit my application for Study Permit anytime next month. But my worries are:

1. Whether 8m is adequate for proof fund

2. The said amount came into my accounts on 26th Aug (3m) and 2 Sept (5m), in two savings accounts I maintain in different banks. By the time I will submit my SP application, the funds would be barely a month and 2weeks in my account.

Please will it have negative implication on my application?

Note: My school didn't demand for any tuition deposit but I intend paying my first semester fees of about 2.2m (CAD7,660) and attach same to my Student Permit Application.

I will appreciate advise/suggestions on the above.

Thanks
Hello, please see my response to your questions:

1. Whether 8m would be enough is subject to your tuition and living cost. Where is your school? How much is rent for a year? How much is your tuition fee? You need to show the officer that you have enough funds to cover for at least a year, and you'll have extra left. Just don't give them any chance to think you would need a part-time job to survive.

2. You would need to have a strong SOP and explain how you got your entire POF in a space of one week. Has your account been having such inflow and outflow before now. I'd advise you convert those funds to Fixed Deposit of T-Bills.

Again, this is no guarantee, just an advice.

My pleasure, guys. Just use those questions as templates cos Dragnet might not repeat the same questions. I did mine two weeks ago, so I'm sure the past questions are current, cos I bought them few days to the exam.
NB: Pay attention to the Abstract Reasoning Questions...they can be a bit tricky and brain-racking...also, be time conscious. You won't want to spend the whole 20mins reading one passage.
Good luck!

I wonder why some people take advantage of others because they are "temporarily" in the position to help. Do you have to sell past questions? I mean!
Ok guys, I have the past questions. I bought it for N2,000 but I'm not ready to make it a |business opportunity".... I'll send all the questions to the first 10 emails I get. And please, I don't need recharge cards. Thanks
