Hi,
Did you also get that biometric validity correspondence mail?

dreamland24:
Good day Ma/sir,
Please I wish to apply for a program (Alternative Energy Technology) in NAIT with my Bachelor Degree Certificate in Civil Engineering, second upper division. Will my application be considered? Thanks for your kind and quick response.

sillysassysally:
lol, are you stalking me?
I'm not the creator oh, a couple of people have done this in previous threads...

sillysassysally:
Hi Nairaland fam,

I hope you all had a great weekend! May this new week shall feature approvals and medical requests in Jesus name... Amen

We now have a sample of 42 hopefuls but i want to encourage those that have not shared their timeline to please do. Let us contribute to this wonderful thread as we have benefited from it. This is the only way the thread can grow. For those that have submitted their timeline but haven't shared all the information we need, please help in sharing the full details (especially school resumption month and whether or not your application is new).

Also, if you guys have any ideas on how we can present this information better or what else we can add to it or remove from it, I am always open any adjustment that'll make this better.

OB411:
Great place I must say.

Happy to be here to get/give helpful tips, well-done guys.

You all are amazing.

I also applied for study permit on 1 march: paper route, biometric done same day. Biometric correspondence letter updated on 5th April.

Application currently on elegibility review & background check.

Na God hand I dey like this.

Schonebaby:
I guess processing weeks have reduced

sillysassysally:
We are using "delayed" as opposed to "denied" because we believe that the application has only been tempoarily delayed and that the next try would be successful.

TRV processing time update 09/04/2019

We now have a sample of 34 hopefuls!

I would encourage those that have applied this year to share their timeline (with details such as; Application Route, whether you're a new or re-applicant, School Resumption Date, Application Date, Biometrics Request Date, Biometrics Done Date, Medical Request, Medicals Done, Medicals Passed, PPR or the Current Status of your application). If you don't have all this information, you can just share the ones that you have and update the rest as you receive it. This information would help us study or attempt to establish a pattern to how CIC operates. (Please note that the calculated estimates are just averages based on the little sample we have. Your processing time may be faster or slower than the average)

For those that have already submitted their timeline, kindly share if you are a new applicant or a re-applicant. Also, please share when you are expected to resume school. This would help us understand if there is a relationship between processing time and resumption date. (Cc Dedecoder, Godatwork23, Dolapok, Oni2019, docsaj, Klem28, Ancy 26, Trishaben, Omarzx, ify85, umulobi, Iykedpetes)

Finally, If there is anything you think i should add to the data or calculate from the data or if there is a better way you think I can present the data, I am always open to suggestions.

makano:
You subscribed to a monthly update from CIC, that is why u are getting this.. Its not related to a favourable response, its a normal thing to those that subscribe to the monthly update.. Peace

Austacus:
Wait oooo
Who are you pointing your anger to?
Why not go to anifowoshe (VI) and fight them

Just a reminder, justwise isn't paying anyone here so stop feeling like it's a right.
Same as those in Ph.D. get their visa deny too... diploma refusal Is alarming especially in 2018.

Easy bro, at least you should be happy with the recent approval galore.

Don't forget to drink enough H2o

Austacus:
Diploma TRV and Coop work permit

This is indeed a fabulous news for many people cause the diploma has been a barrier for some time now. (there head done dey correct).

Please answer the following question

~What is your travel history?
~Who's your sponsor (parents), or self-sponsored?
~Tell us the rage of amount in your sponsor’s account. If you don't want to say the exact amount, just the rage will do eg 15-17 million
~How did you convince the VO in your SOP? What did you do differently?
~Did you change your program? Or the same program with your BSC?
~ where do you work in Nigeria? And How's the pay like?

I may not respond back to you but your answer will help us especially for those that are going for a diploma.

Congratulations bro.

Hey Nairaland Family,

We now have a sample of 25 hopefuls!

Please I would encourage those that have applied this year to share their timeline (whether you're a new or re-applicant, Application Route, School Resumption Date, Application Date, Biometrics Request Date, Biometrics Done Date, Medical Request, Medicals Done, Medicals Passed, PPR or the Current Status of your application).

TRV processing time update 26/03/2019

Congratulations to all those who got their approvals this month!

We now have a sample of 18 hopefuls. Please i would encourage those that have applied this year to please share their timeline (which should include; the application date, application route, biometrics request date, date biometrics was done, medical request date, date medicals was done, date medicals was passed, and the current status). If you don't have all this information, you can just share the ones that you have and update the rest as you receive it.

This information would help us study or attempt to establish a pattern to how CIC operates.

We have made attempts to "calculate" processing times. (Please note that this is just an average based on the little sample we have. Your processing time may be faster or slower than the average). As we get more samples, I want to believe our calculations would be more "accurate".

Finally, If there is anything you think i should add to the data or calculate from the data, please share with me.

Approval Alert!!!

And that is how I finally get to share my own testimony. It's been the Lord's doing and no doubt, marvelously marvelous in my sight

Timeline

Applied December 12 2018 after being refused October 1 last year.
Medical Request: February 7
Medicals Done: February 20
Biometric Validity: March 22
Passport Request: Just Now
School: Centennial College, Toronto
Course: Biotechnology

Reason for first Refusal: Purpose of visit

So, who says college applicants don't get approval? Of course, I have always known that the notion is far from the truth. The difficulty or ease lies on "times and chances" just like with any other application.

Should any college applicant have a query or clarification, I shall be more than willing to supply answer.

Documents that are meant to be notarized are documents that doesn't bear an official stamp or signature. Supposing your documents have this, you don't necessarily need to notarize them.

Frankrobbn1:
It won't hurt your application. As a matter of fact, it helps alot in addressing your ties to Nigeria and funds accessibility by you (the principal applicant). Clearly indicate in your SOP that you and mother are the signatory to the joint account. For this reason, adequate funds will be available at your disposal during your stay in Canada. Preferably, affix a reference letter from the bank to support your claims.
