IED: 11 Jan 2019

Congratulations to you. may God bless your new journey.

Please I need clarrification on this Inital entry date. does it mean you cannot enter Australia till January 19?

Please guys. has anyone assesed with TRA using a company without a website. My previous company doesn't have a website. hope it wont be a problem

Alphadoor:
It's not impossible, however, there are many IF's to consider

what occupation are you planning to nominate?

Computer network and Systems Engineer.
its available now on 489 for NSW Victoria SA NT.

Alphadoor:


I see you also have limited experience, therefore you cant claim points for that, this is currently a major set back because the game is different (tougher) now
20 points in English is a must

Thank you. Please if i aquire 20 on English, 30 my age and 10 for academics. if i apply for state nomination wch makes it 70. for 489

Will it still be tough even without the points from work exp?

LagosismyHome:


PhD is not a joke and very research oriented ... So i see that response by gokuu as a hint to put more effort

I agree about the message, but he was unnecessarily rude.

gokuu:


And you want to apply to a PhD program? If you cannot do a simple google search, how will you cope with 5 years of incisive research?

Uncalled for. You can either help or read and move on. it wouldn't cost you your humanity to be nice.

@Azy123 Please I need your help urgently. I have sent you messages . Please

Alphadoor:


I'll once again refer you to page 0 for the answer to this question.

Thursday July 5 , 2018.

I left my hotel (same room i stayed for my last interview) at obalende to the embassy at around 5:30.. Got there around 5:45.. I walked confidently to the crowd.. I am sure they will think dis girl na jjc.. She doesnt know things are tough here, but I actually came to mark my third attendance within the past 7months, my first was Dec 5 then Dec 27.. Those are the days I was carrying Cleveland state university's i20 upandown. .
To kill my moral one girl was asking me some kinda questions like she already knew I be "Customer da da ni".. All my answers were I donno. (someone cannot come and give me bad memories)

Congratulations!!!. What is the name of your school and was your previous interview with Civil engineering I20?

Please gurus in the house. I need a mentor right now on this.

I have a bsc computer science. I have toefl of 105

I will be going for MSc in Information technology.

please advice on affordable and good schools I should apply. I have been denied usa visa last month. hope it won't affect my Australian application. my sponsor is my uncle. Has same name as my mum. has alot of properties too and a good bank statement. Can I use him?

What session should I be targeting and when do I have to start applying. can I still meet up with this session?

Do Australia offer funding for masters?
Must I pay full tuition before coming?

imperiouxx:


Since your uncle has been to US before, they know him. At that part, she was doing was fetching his record. Question is, has he ever given birth in US before or does he have properties in US? Hope he's not owing anything in US. Go ask your uncle what's the deal is before thinking of going back in the nearest future.

No he just attended a wedding with the wife last year. he came back immediately after the wedding.

Hi,

Its not hard per se however it is quite competitive as you'd imagine. I believe your CGPA is decent enough to secure admission into a Masters program, lower CGPAs have especially if your final 2 years were solid. Your TOEFL shouldn't be necessary for the admission though. Most schools give Nigerians a waiver for that english language requirement.

Just apply to multiple schools (of course there's the application price tag to consider 110 - 200 CAD depending). Don't go applying to the Top 5 schools only o; Depending on your risk appetite spread your application across the tiers. Admission is quite competitive.

Also, apply as soon as possible.

Can we talk privately? I have few questions i would like to ask on university choices. I sent you a pm. pls reply
I am going for computer science, If there are any university u can suggest off the top of your head, i can optimize my search with universities with such profile. also, Can I get funding with my profile?

nivlek000:


Not long at all. There shouldn't be a crowd for submission. I got there at about 1PM

Was directed to get a ticket on the 2nd floor then proceed to the 1st floor for submission where the officer asked for:
1. A document I got after biometrics (the one with the visa fee receipt) and
2. the request letter from CIC

Go with a photo copy of both or photocopy right there on the 2nd floor when you're asked for the copies

Of course don't forget your International passport

Hello, I sent u a pm. please reply. thanks

Hello gurus.

I'm new here. I have read all the important links on page 1. very helpful. It's now time to take it 1 step at a time.
I have 3.69/5gpa computer science. I aim to go for a master's. I have a Toefl of 105. I read about how hard it is to get a master's degree admission. my question is. can this secure a master's admission in Canada? I'm trying to spread my options this time.

I ll also appreciate if I can get a direct contact I can be asking the preliminary basic questions. thank you

Ubah1:


The V.O that interviewed you is nice. They do say it time without number if your story hasn't changed within the last 6 months, dont reapply. I think you were refused not less than 2months, let's say you came june 1st and you are going back home 30th or July, the probability of getting your visa approved is slim. The V.O will likely agree with his/her colleague decision and won't bother asking you much questions. That's a sign of respect to his colleague as nothing has really changed in your application. The best thing to do is wait. Wait till spring 2019 or fall 2019. You can aswear apply for PhD so that your profile will be stronger next time you appear before them. Don't give up, wish you the best in your future endeavours.

Thank you. I will wait for fall and apply. since it seemed everything was about my sponsor and finances. I'm still worried about the number of kids error. what do u think about it

LagosismyHome:


Sorry about the delay .......are you not close to your sponsor to know how many kids or it was nerves

I cannot tell for sure the bold as it only someone who works in the embassy that would know . I dont think it would (although consistent is key) but i am no insider .

I thought he had 2 boys and 1 girl. didn't know he has 3 boys now. they are all so little. I can't really pinpoint why I only know 3. and I know their names. Is there a way I could ask a visa officer?

[quote author=VECOH1 post=69100502][/quote] No I did not. I am just pointing out the only mistake I could find. and since he has traveled to the usa. maybe they have his details. I'm just guessing, I'm no expert. that's why I am asking people that are experienced

I went for my interview again today and was denied by the black lady in window 2. not the popular window 7.

vo:Good morning , where are you going to

me:I am going to Etsu for my masters in computer and information sciences

vo: she looks at her system and said (hold on). after reading for a while. she said. what has changed since u were last here

me: I was placed on administrative processing but was later refused, I guess the VO wasn't satisfied with my financial documents. so I have brought additional documents and letters from each bank to show my financial capabilities.

vo: your uncle is sponsoring u. what does he do?

me: He's into the importation of fabric and textile.

vo: how many children does he have

me: 3

vo: Has he been out of the country before?

me: Yes.

Vo: where

me: Usa, China, Cameroon

vo:Tell me his name, first and last

me: I did

she stares at the documents for over minutes. then looked at her system like she's searching for somthing. took a while too. I was just standing there. she then typed for a very long time. then said "sorry I ll have to agree with my former colleague. you do not qualify now. U can reapply.

Me: can I ask u a question. she said yes.
"can u tell me the actual reason"

vo: it's against the law the form explains everything

me:I know what the form says and we both know it doesn't really specify.  I am not asking u to break the law. but give me something to work with. you can do it in a way that u wouldn't be breaking the law. Just tell me what you personally think I should do?

Vo: Okay. if I'm to say. I ll say I ll probably wait

Note: I came home and told the whole ordeal to my sister. she pointed out that my uncle now has 4kids and not 3. I don't know if this played a role.. I have accepted my fate. I will work harder , rewrite GRE and aim for PHD and and masters but full scholarship. I had 305 and 105toefl.

My question is. will this mistake of 3/4 kids affect me in the future. it was an honest mistake. If it was the reason I was rejected. will it come back again to haunt me even if I secure full scholarships for next year.

I want honest opinions.  no matter how harsh. Pls I ll appreciate any opinion
Thank you

@ LagosismyHome @TWoods @EZEIGBO1OFIMO

StarBoy54:
hello i have paid but how do i get the reciept number? I used the internet banking option

login into your Internet banking through the website. under visa and tourist. click on us visa. before clicking on make new payment. look closely on the table below. U ll see a record of your recent payment with a "print button ". click on it and it ll generate a pdf.

Jiggsbaby:

How much was ur visa fee please

Someone has answered you. you can always google this kind of information . it's even on their website. the price is 57600

LagosismyHome:


Your whole details is on the system so all this explanation I don't think it is needed before you go give information that is not asked

Just be calm and answer the questions asked .... don't be answering what not asked. If asked then yes you can explain but the Vo can see that and can see what you cannot see , which is the real reason why you were denied. What you have is speculative reason and might not be the real reason so just be calm and positive

Thank you very much

LagosismyHome:


@bold... Gbam... you said it all and you said it well

Been waiting for your advice on the question I asked. I don't want to raise any point that might harm my chances or omit something that might help.

If VO asks what changed. Do I have to mention that I was placed on administrative processing last time. but I have brought more supporting financial document. I'm planning to add his business account too with a letter from bank.

please help

Walspring:


If you are not ban and you are sure of what you submitted are all legit then reapply.

No they just attached the 214b blue paper

LagosismyHome:


Don't move mainly because you don't even know what the true issue is . And moving just raises eye brow .

If it me as long as the statement is legit , i go back and hope for the best

If VO asks what changed. Do I have to mention that I was placed on administrative processing last time. but I have brought more supporting financial document. I'm planning to add his business account too with a letter from bank.

Please guys. I'm about to apply again. I hope the administrative processing won't affect me again. Is there anything I should do? Should I add more accounts or just move the whole money into new account

Nrosemary:
You were placed on administrative processing bf

yes

I got an sms last night that my passport was ready for pickup. I have collected it this morning. they returned all my documents including my statement of account. they attached the 214b form. no other explanation. I don't even know how to approach this again cos I tried my best to make everything perfect the first time.

Ubah1:

Thank you very much. I ll wait and hope its a mistake somewhere.

imperiouxx:


Since you said this account is genuine and had enough fund, there must be a mix up somewhere. You can't know what went wrong unless you try again.

Best of luck

OK. waiting for my passport. I cant even book another appointment without it

imperiouxx:


This is why I asked if you're sure the total in the account would cover 1 year. Answer this.

Yes. I was required to show $31k. my account totals $52k. As of yesterday after my interview, the account is currently $56k. So I don't understand. They were meant to see more money if they tried verifying.

imperiouxx:


@ jandedfelloh,

Do you know if the account has a sufficient fund that covers your 1 year studies?

Yes. I was required to show $31k. my account totals $52k. As of yesterday after my interview, the account is currently $56k. So I don't understand. They were meant to see more money if they tried verifying.
