VO was from Nairobi, Kenya.

I forgot to add that I wrote SOP.
I was really worried because I felt I didn't prove enough home ties. I only used coming back to work as my reason. I was on NYSC at the time but I didn't include any recommendation from work.

Hello! How long did it take for the admission decision?

I used the Duolingo English test. They are accepting it for applications up to summer 2021 due to the pandemic.
I got admission into the MEng program in Chemical and Petroleum Engineering for winter 2021.

Did you submit any proficiency test for your application to the school?

I'm here

Any university of Calgary Master's applicant here?

I am also considering ordering my gcms notes. It has been 52 days of waiting for me. With the way PPRs have been moving out I have decided to wait till it's exactly 2 months (60 days) before I order the notes. Hopefully I get a response before then. Let's just have faith. God will see us through.

adeenzo:
@chocs, I am torn inbetween ordering my gcms notes or I should just wait it out, it’s being 45 days since my online application was submitted and still Canada hasn’t initiated any first response ... God take the wheel

Hello house,

I submitted my application on September 1st and I conducted upfront medicals on September 16.
Is it advisable to wait for medical request before uploading the paper giving to me at the health centre or can I upload it before then.

I believe you should just be patient.
I also submitted my application for winter 2021 (January) on the 1st of September and got biometrics request the next day. I did my biometrics on September 18, and it was updated on my profile later the same day. No other update since then.

adeenzo:
Hi Chocs and nairalanders

Please do you have any idea the typical time frame for canada to initiate communication with an applicant after successfully submitting his/her application... i submitted my application on the 7th of Sept and up till now no word from CIC is that odd or its the normal long timeframe?
Ps... i have done my biometrics since because of my previous travel to canada, so no letter from them indicating i go for my biometrics
please see the screenshot below to see the status of my application

My school just sent a mail yesterday that winter is going to be mostly online and consideration will only be placed on classes that have a maximum of 30 students

NairaLuck:
Seems no hope for winter 2021

Second wave is here

Good morning house.
I started my application yesterday and received biometrics request this morning. I have to travel to Abuja to get it done. Is it advisable to do upfront medicals so I won't have to travel again when they request medical exam.

Good day all. Please is anyone facing issues logging into vfs global to book biometrics appointment. When I create an account it takes me back to the login page but when I login it says invalid useename and password.

Good day everyone,
I want to know if police clearance certificate is a compulsory document for study permit application. I have all other documents.

Please how does someone who is not in Lagos get the police clearance certificate? I am in Kaduna state.

Thank you for your time.
