One Month! See me o, I was just abt to post that my medical results have not been updated since last week tuesday (July 28) that IOM told me they sent it to CIC. Am so worried cos resumption is close at hand. And I already even sent CIC a mail to draw their attention to it. I hope they update it this week sha. Still chilln anyways. It shall be well. Safe!

send them a mail reminding them about your application and your resumption date...tell them how you really don't want to miss the orientation also that late resumption can affect your academic performance and you really don't want that.....it worked for me after I sent them a mail my whole process became swift.

handyteddy:
Well, This is Nigeria, for all of those that believe in spiritual attacks, We know fasting and prayer isnt easy, if you get a medical call, abeg. for God sake, dont start broadcasting, this witches also visit nairaland hehehe ...... well lemme give you an example, an uncle of mine got Visa to the, he decided to keep quite, until he got to the airport, the he threw a silent parry and starts tweeting , on getting to the US at the port of entry, they told him someones head was in the passport his back in Nigeria now, telling stories of DC airport.. Just my own opinion o

#It isnt over until its over
# untill you see application closed... anything can happen
#infact they can ask the VO's to come to ur house and collect the visa back lmao

I pray denial would never be the result of our application, for all the TRV hopefulls, we would all have a cause to celebrate here IJN

Have a nice day y'all

if U believe so much that witches visit nairaland,why don't U kip away form it totally.cos the same witches could also tender free of charge helpful advice for your application. funny world

GboyegaD:
Madam, TRV na TRV ooo. Be it visiting, student, work permit.

yes TRV Na TRV bt Ur statement was dat its only in at Ur entry dey give student permit nd I said no it's also stated in Ur passport S1-Student.....Dey cnt state it like dat on Ur passport if U dint apply for one....get my point...

GboyegaD:
They are the same thing now. The difference with yours is that you get a study permit at your point of entry.

dats not true.d visa on Ur passport it states Ur status S1-student... So its on d passport not jst on d point of entry .

TempusQ:

kennykentipsy:
The CBSA officer will ask to see your travel documents
when you arrive in Canada. Make sure they are not
packed in your luggage, and that you have them with
you. This will help speed up your entry to Canada.
You should be ready to show the following documents:
a valid passport or travel document

the letter of introduction from the visa office that
you received when your study permit was approved
(this letter contains your permit reference number
and the CBSA officer needs this letter to issue your
study permit)

a valid temporary resident visa (if required)

a copy of the letter of acceptance from the

designated learning institution at which you are
accepted to study

proof that you have enough money to support
yourself during your stay in Canada and

letters of reference or any other documents
recommended by the visa office where you
applied.

Carry these items and all other valuable papers, cash
and traveller’s cheques with you at all times. Do not
put them in your checked luggage.

You may not be allowed into Canada if any of your
documents are missing or if any of the information on
your application or letters of reference is incorrect.

found that on cic's website

what letter of reference?

TheBae:
Very bright suggestion but the course-by-course WES evaluation is about $400 which is a bit on the high side but in all, it's a good idea. My WES evaluation served as transcript during my visa application because my transcript didn't come on time

Pls is ICAS( international credentials assessment of Canada) allowed? ie can someone use it as her transcript?

[quote author=Crich post=36359091]Your welcome,God is good all d time.

bc2015:
Hello Gu2015, Goodmorning. I sent you a PM, expecting ur reply. Thanks

done dat

mizIvy:
Hi Lolly,
Yes u can change ur course. I changed my course 3 times n I was still granted. N I didn't even try explaining the reason for course changing. Treat your new app like it's fresh. don't try explaining past app in your new app(if dat make anysense). If canada is ur dream keep trying until u get it. Good luck.

kool,Bt was urs from a PGD to masters?

Team12:
Please stop spreading wrong info. This is d second time u will be posting this...

Pls tell he/she.....so much wrong info.

Crich:
Thanks Teesboy. Within few minutes, it has gone back from 'updated' to 'your action is required'. I'm more confused. I don't know what's going on.

relax, maybe Ur passport request

Lolly1204:
I finished 2012 and the truth is I applied for public health in another school but unfortunately I wasn't offered admission,so I decided to go for the proposed course with the intention of still applying for public health later.

sent U a pm

Lolly1204:
Still waiting for the response....pleasseeee

Firstly why did u chose to do a PGD,cos pharmacy is seen as a professional degree,secondly when did u graduate?

Haustraliah:
Doing upfront medical complecate issues. if you go for medical examination whener cic as you to do is always faster.
The analysis is very simple, doing medical whenever medical request pop up on your application takes approximately one week, then what you see next is medical examination result, pass or fail.
Moreover, passport request also takes one week prior dispatched.
Up front medical complicate issues at times, they will have to merge your medical result with your application, i can see lot of peeps on the thread complaining about medical result or passport request.
So choose wisely.

hmmmmmm,Ur analysis nd conclusions re funny......anyway will allow d gurus reply U.

ayooluwatoni:
Planning return ticket because I never knew they would allow a one way! I've heard of so many countries who dont allow one way even for students!

really neva heard dat,esp if your program is for more dan a year,

TheBae:
Lol you can go with a one-way ticket but it may not be economical in the long run

yea,Bt why buy return ticket if u don't plan to come back to Nigeria in d next 1 year.cus d ticket is valid for only a year...I stand to b corrected.

LOVINA1245:
she's not discouraging, she's simply advising. doing med does not guarantee trv. If you can bear the risk, all well and good.

we all knw dat doing upfront Medicals doesn't guarantee TRV,it's even started on CIC....d part of most pple who do upfront medicals get dalayed Pls were did dat fact nd figure come from, It sounds discouraging for a first timer reading it....as for pple like me i hv my TRV so no fears...I stand to b corrected
