PLEASE guys, please I desperately need your advise on these issues

1) my sponsor is not a family member
2) I've been unemployed for a year without any income but I've been under going a fashion designing course with a certificate to prove it; hope these wont affect my chances of been approved.
3) which is more resonable; to do medicals before submitting my application or to wait for the immigration office to call for medicals.
4) is it reasonable yo submit my application through VAC or myself?


I will really appreciate responses . please

Someone in Canada should please help me with my gcms note, I was refused last week based on "purpose of visit" and "current employment situation" after showing them a reference letter from my uncle's company, stating that I've been working with them since 2012, no payslip or employment letter was added though.
I really need this gcms note so that I can refire soon, my admission has been deferred to January 2017

peronpj:
Please i need answers before i can apply for visa, i have admission letter from university of lethbridge for management certificate course and i already did my bsc in business management but my CGPA was not enough to secure for MSC. Do you think they will give me visa please......

ezenwa28:
hello bro please how long it will take to process online study permit visa app. I applied since july 27th. 2016.
Thank you.

davecool:
pls can they give visa without medicals? pls rp as urgent cos we haven't been called for medicals

GrandCommander:


Thanks cos the way they put is is confusing. They have already told us even before registering that volunteer work is not acceptable. With wat u said, are "Graduate Trainee" job titles ok to add e.g. Management Trainee or Trainee engineer as part of the work experience.

GrandCommander:
Dear all, when filling out ur application for express entry, in the work experience section, they said do not enter work related to or performed during an apprenticeship process. What do they mean by this

Bimpsy99:
Sorry about that. Not sure of why they did that but I it maybe because you got exemptions and they can see from the number of courses in your transcript. Your Bsc accounting should be sufficient to claim points but you may not be able to claim two or more certificates. You may inquire from WES and get their basis.

mrflo231:
Hi all
I submitted my acca certificate affiliate for Wes review. acca had earlier giving me exemptions as I had usedmy bsc accounting to gain some.wes-They gave me a year of undergraduate and stated in remarks it is not comparable to any completed Canadian degree. Can I still claim 2 or more degree or do I write to Wes to inquire why they would not assess my acca as a four year degree

Hi guys,

I come in here once in a while to check the forum and majorly search for members that need help with info about Concordia University of Edmonton or Edmonton as a whole. I have been reading recently and it is sad to see folks are really being refused on per second billing these days.

I want to believe there are still gurus here, even though I can't see the likes of Femmy, Oga Siga, Britiko, Playpays that were here in 2013.

Above all, it is not of him that runneth nor of him that willeth, but of God that showeth mercy. The God-factor is still the priority!

I wish you all the best. Canada is a good place to be, do not give up the struggle yet.

Be encouraged!

sholay2011:

Why would anyone bother with Canada though when he is already in US studying? Aren't the two countries similar in terms of career opportunities (in relation to population figure)? Abi una dey fear Trump?

abmendozer:
CIC make una clap for una selves oo as una don refuse us finish.
Anyways guys, If one successfully gets F1 visa to USA, can one apply for canada study permit before one finish his/her program? Or will one have to get a PR before one can apply?Beacuse honestly the sure/best way to enter Canada if from another country. God help us all.

Eraytee:

Judgepelumi:
Hello guys. please i need useful info as regards studying in canada. I wish to study at memorial university or UNBC. I have a Gre score of 296 (AWA-4), and the required score for MUN is 302, UNBC doesnt need Gre, I have a second class upper division (3.75/5). Please can anyone help me know my chances of securing admissions at these two universities. I also have a research proposal and would want to study Msc in Business administration (theses route). I heard securing admission at MUN is quite tough, i feel i can learn more abt both schools on here. And also, does my credentials qualify me for University of saskatchewan Msc Finance (min Gre score 300). I feel desperate as i dont wanna lose out since applications fr nxt year entry has started. I can also be reached at damiefashe@gmail.com. Thanks so much

Nickoko:
@Gymme. Are you saying part-time job before qualification counts or part-time job after qualification? Are you saying if somebody graduated last year from a part-time program in nigeria university though he has been working for the past 6years whilst schooling, he will he get 6years or 1 year working experience for canada express entry?To the best of my knowledge cic only consider post qualification working experience wheather part-time or full time.

dupyshoo:
That's not correct. Part-time work experiences during studies outside Canada count. The only issue is that a year part-time work will not count as a full year. You will need the numbers of hours per week to calculate the number of months you actually worked.

platypelloid:
God bless you Sir,@Gymme
You have been of help sir.
I am currently in YABA.
Kindly pm me the address of the notarized lawyer so I can see him personally.
Thank you so much.

kodified:
Thank you so much for this thread. My wife works at a bank. I am an auditor at a big 4 accounting firm. We both have a BSC but I am the only ICAN holder. I am 29 and she is 28. Who does the house think should be the principal applicant?

platypelloid:

Thank you sir.
I have emailed them
They seem not reject it.they say its incomplete.
I have the certification of identify done by my school,can a lawyer do my Intl passport notarization? Or I have to go back to my school?
Do you know any lawyer who is a notary public?
Thank you.

shinarambo1:

Key. Thats why i said my post does not apply to students.

michV:
bro i don't understand you and i don't think you understood @Mikymiko's post you commented on,if he started working in April and his employment letter was dated April,i see no reason updating the employment letter again in his re-application.if it were introductory letter or payslips,i would say certainly that an update is needed or if he got a new employement,i would say while the old employment remains to cover the gaps, the new employment surfaces with the current date if he got one though.
@Mikymiko u are saying true talk, but clarify me incase i'm lost in the game

shinarambo1:

Read my last post again..but slowly this time, and kindly point out where I posted a gloomy picture..I even used myself as an example. I pointed out a trend, but that flew over your head. I overcame the challenges and several many Nigerians like me. We all have high level of education and experience from world class companies from different part of the world. I even mentioned that slydog's uncle (a former halliburton staff) working as a security guard today doesn't mean he won't eventually get into his profession just like his sister-in-law did. Note I came in when you even need at least a masters degree to qualify for residency, so Canada did not give PR's to dullards or people that don't know how to tailor resumes to Canadian standards.

Fact still remains that you have an idea of how things work in the US, but no so much about Canada. What you have are hearsays. You do not live here as an Immigrant neither are you a foreign born Canadian. Your sister(hearsay) living here does not qualify you as a subject expert in this case. I do not class myself as Mr know it all, but I have first hand experience. I have been on interview panels. I have mentored people. I have helped Nigerians from the US migrate here successfully (last was a doctor with MPH from Harvard Uni). I have helped people transit easily from world class co-operations like pwc and GE in Nigeria to good jobs in Canada. My advise is so that people may know the difficulty they may encounter in breaking into the job market; therefore, to come prepared. This would be my last post on here. I have got important stuffs to do than going back and forth with arguments. I still respect your opinion. Thanks and have a nice day!

* This does not apply to immigrants that came here on a student visa*

Mikymiko:
I want to reapply, pls do I still use same employment letter I used in April to reapply because it was dated April?

toluene1234:
Please someone should confirm to me if VO or Embassy does call sponsors to confirm applicant authenticity or employer to confirm employee status. Gurus should please respond. Thanks
