God bless u … seems d dude hasn’t checked ticket price recently

olufunbi:
Return tickets on lufthansa,klm airfrance are from 2m plus.One way is about 1.4m,while in some cases Qatar one way presently could be for 900k while return tickets on Qatar is over a million or more.Tickets are very expensive now.Gone are those days of 350k return ticket.

Check Wakanow, traveloth, asapticket and any other sites you know .. check for two way booking frm lag to anywhere in Canada and see d prices for urself .. over 2m is what I have been seeing so far , even directly on Ethiopian airline and egyptair

Predator188:
How did you got return flight for 2m, return flight is normally lower than one way ticket at all flight bookings and depends on the preferred date for departure and return

Your given exchange rate
Usd Bank =430
Black market=815

2500usd to naira bank rate =1,075,000
2500usd to naira black market= 2,037,500 naira

Example # Assuming you book ticket with Qatar Airways
One way ticket is =733,991 Naira
Return =350,000 naira
Total =1,084,9911 naira which is one way ticket and return flight

2500 usd @ bank rate =1,096,300 naira PTA
2500usd @black market rate=2,037,500 naira black market

To sum the total savings from pTA instead of black market @ 2500usd =?
Black market - Bank rate =
2,037,500-1,096,300 =962500 naira
Total savings =?
962,500 naira -350,000 naira for return flight =612500 naira....
Total savings from PTA = 612,500 naira

Congrats but please call the nbcc and beg them to reinstate your admission , send series of emotionally emails to pacify dem .. it’s easier for u to travel with that visa (cos it’s 95% granted) if u use nbcc loa dan any oda loa … another loa means another study permit process , u will have to declare to ircc and a new process will begin as to that effect
And pls can u tell us when ur app was submitted

My people

IRCC just requested for my Medical
Now NBCC has cancelled my addmision, I have applied to schools but I have not heard from anyone of them.

Please I need names of colleges that has quick addmision process.

Thank you

According to my calculations this PTA tin is almost same with buying at 800plus from bdc .
For instance , u can only get 2500$ for pta and rate now is about 430.. that means with charges n all u will spend above 1.1m to get $2500 and before u cud get pta u wud hv a return ticket . Return ticket is about 2m now , add 2m to 1.1m that’s 3.1m in total expense.

At bdc rate a $2500 times 815 is 2.037m and u don’t need a return ticket or whatsoever to buy $$ from bdc . If u spend 900k for one way ticket and add this together it’s not even up to 3m. So y worrying about pta? Unless u can have a way of getting refund for not using the return ticket

Get a dollar card … walk up to uba or gt bank and request for dollar prepaid card

Lamzee:
Anyone please

Were u able to get NOC ? I learnt to apply for another country visa from Dubai it’s not only about the emirate ID but one must have NOC from a sponsor, partner or company

obatuntun1:
Happy Sunday guys, anyone here who applied from UAE(Dubai) This wait period is making me go . Wetin Nigerians do IRCC, since July 20th.

That local intel got me ….lol….these guys knw wassup in naija..they are all over the internet sef reading our posts…these ppl advertising mfb n other banks pof deal on twitter don’t knw d damage dey r causing .
Mae we no lie to ourselves.. 90% of mfb statement as form of pof na level …lol �

loohlaah:
Let me add to this. Weather Legit or not. I’d advise you move your money to a commercial bank.
Earlier this year I submitted my application using a MFB statement with monies I saved over time. Lo and behold, I was refused. Attached is the response from IRCC. All the best.

For those asking about MFB.. I think I have read part of this thread someone submitted mfb statement. Provided the mfb is legit and licensed to operate there shouldn’t be a problem. Infact on visa.mybankstatement website there is VFB microfinance on d website as part of participating bank that uses d mbs portal to share statement with embassies . If the mfb statement u are submitting is legit and d bank is licensed there shdnt be a problem . If it’s not an mbs portal kind of statement den What d embassy wud do is to contact the bank and confirm d statement .

But truth be told , a lot of ppl r using mfb statement as ruins now . I have read a thread on twitter that talks bout an agent wey dey give POF at very cheap rate and na mfb staff. It’s cheaper than d usual 3.5% most ppl are charging because d guy’s own isn’t legit money , he wud only provide fake statement and d manager in their mfb wud confirm it as real anytime embassy contacts dem. With this kind of tin going round now, d embassy cud hv seen alot of cases whereby fake statements hv bin submitted and they were mostly mfb statement. So for any1 submitting or submitted mfb statement shd ensure it’s legit and d bank will be ready to confirm to embassy d legitimacy of d statement.
Peace!!!

fenwag:
please, I have been asked to go for medicals by IRCC, and I have requested a refund from Humber College because there is no availability to defer my course. I mailed the school they said it's too late to join this current section. What can I do? If I reapply to the school, hope it will not affect my study permit?

Please when did you submit your app

Both college n uni r good … according to what I heard , college is practically based while uni is theoretically based … I’m sorry I can’t make any suggestion for you now , just type on google cheap universities or colleges den pick the sch one by one to check their admission requirements, tuition, deposit policy , refund policy , courses, if the sch is eligible for pgwp, if the course in that sch requires co-op work permit and other features u deem fit ..
You want to study business administration right ? U can check keyano college, seneca, nscc, nbcc, booth university college, brandon university… and so on … I only mentioned colleges here cos they are way cheaper than unis.. u can search more by urself and for unis too..
this site could help you get list of DLI schs in Canada ..u can streamline ur search on that site to bring out list of schs that r only pgwp eligible

VictoriaAD9:
So I shouldn't bother writing waec again.
Do you recommend any schools, my budget for tuition is about 25kCAD.
Also what about colleges? I checked SAIT but someone said admission is very problematic.
Which would be better? University or college?

5yr study gap ain’t an issue , u still have age on your side . And d good tin is that u can explain the gap by using d activities you have engaged on since u finished sec sch.. gather all d evidences of those activities cos u wud need dem to back up your explanation on d SOP for visa purpose .
As for getting an admission in sch in Canada that’s not an issue at all, search thru diff schs and pick d one that suit ur recommendation and fiiaaaam! u will be accepted . Na visa be d issue wey ppl dey tackle pass , getting admission na easy task

VictoriaAD9:
Good morning, I need some advice on what to do.
I want to study business administration in Canada but I'm worried about my study gap.
I graduated from secondary school in 2017, I was only 14 years old so I wasn't ready to go to the university.
So I just worked different jobs, as an intern in a graphic design shop, then I also taught school students.
I also did an internship for a civil engineering company but during covid I decided to start my own business so I made started the business and once just running it on the side but it's fully registered with the CAC.
My parents were serious about me going to university so I wrote jamb last year and I'm currently studying biochemistry in lasu but I'm just doing it because of my parents.
I really want to study business administration cause I've really grown to enjoy running my business and all but the problem is the study gap, my waec result is from 2017.
Do I have a chance of getting admission in any university because of how old the result is?
I made good grades, A1&B2, though I have a C5 in English.
I have researched on some schools but the result thing is really discouraging me.
It's been more than 5 years since I wrote waec.
Also I'm already studying biochemistry, won't that be a problem too.
I really don't know what to do, I'm considering writing Waec for private students but the results usually come out in April and admission deadline for most schools is March.
Please someone should please advise me on what to do, thank you.

KingCassy:
Hi guys… it looks like so many agents are advertising university of Manitoba on Instagram… I had to chat with one of them and he said getting visa with the schools admission is almost guaranteed… and he said it’s easier getting visa with the school’s undergraduate program… please guys what’s your thoughts on this

I know ppl that applied UofM and still chop breakfast sha …lol �

demmy79:
If you are interested in study for free in France,admission is ongoing for both Undergraduate and Postgraduate study.whatsap me on 09020715272

Does it requires block trf of euro to account in France or not ?

The sponsor in d case u arent declaring yourself as d sponsor …but if u declare urself as sole sponsor or co sponsor den u hv to submit ur bank statement too and oda proof that shows how d money is being made.
The account can be any type …personal acct better tho . For biz acct den u hv to show proof that d money in the acct will be available to u
Atleast a ref letter from d bank showing d signatory to d acct . If it’s more dan one signatory other dan ur sponsor den a consent letter shd come from oda signatories.

Dollar card …. Naira card has been limited to only $20 txn daily

Djdimeji:
Thanks to everyone that responded.

Some other enquiries,

1. Who should carry the funds, the applicant or the sponsor?
2. Whose bank statement would be submitted, the applicant, sponsor or both?
3. The account should be savings or current? (or business account, I'm not so sure but aren't business and current account the same?)
4. How do you guys pay for the application fees, naira or dollar card?

Thank you!

The UK ban could have played out here too… us -cana-aussie-uk-nz….. I think they share travel info within themselves ….
Plus when filling ur study permit form there is a place mentioned if u hv been denied visa or ban from a country before … guess u answered yes ? And also gave details ? …

SoftdudeKay:
Trust me, I am not sleeping truly. I haven’t slept up to 20hrs since I received this letter on Saturday.

Now this is the issue here: I already have UK ban due to an agent’s stupidity. I applied for a visit visa in 2019 and submitted my original bank statement but guess what? The bastard went to fudge a statement which I didn’t know about, it resulted to UK giving me 10 years ban and this year’s December would make it 3 years. And due to my own stupidity, I trusted another agent with the visit visa to Canada in 2020 and the application fee was reversed back to him and I didn’t know about it until now. Now that this my current study application that I did by myself is about to work out, but that silly error on the 2020 application is about to ruin my chance and a possible ban too. My wife would be relocating to the UK next week Thursday (exactly a week today) as a registered nurse, we haven’t been able to have a good time together since I received this procedural fairness letter.

I look at my wife that we just got married last month and I want to express my feelings on how much I would miss her but damn!!! Something inside of me is killing me so badly that I can’t even express my feelings and our excitement for her new job in the UK and her departure is affected as a family, obviously my laughter and smiles are forced and unreal because I’m hurting inside and she knows. We now have to start looking at UK for me again.

God please, I come before you with Matthew 7:7-8 that says, “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”

Please, wipe our tears and answer all our prayers, open the doors of Canada to us all on this platform through Jesus Christ your only son. AMEN

Back then it was vfs at billings way, oregun. I don’t know if a vfs office still there . I will check online tho . Thanks

Good day the gurus in the house.Pls am new here an agent is asking for #300k for admission fee.Is that not too much? Pls suggest & I have bsc in admin with 2.2 & agent is telling me to take an undergraduate course pls suggest what I can do..I need your guidance pls!

Yes many people have done that and scale thru, as a matter of fact ,my frnd wife just traveled in Aug , the week she funded her acct with 9m plus (tho d tf entered in tranches).. she generated the MBS ticket on a Friday and went to bank on Monday to withdraw all d money ..Her study visa still comes as a surprise to me till now . She had nothing in that account and she printed statement only for one month. Tho, maybe her case was handled lightly prolly cos she has two siblings in Canada and one of her sis stood as co-sponsor …

On her lighter note , so many ppl dey comot d money after printing out statement , especially for UK ppl ��lol… this japa tin na for rich kids , na dem fit get huge money wey solely belongs to dem and dem fit leave am for acct as dem deem fit ….. �

Geerlings:

Profgordons:
Don’t do what you are thinking!

With the mbs ticket num .. they will login to see the statement on mybankstatement website. They will only see d statement as at the date u generated d ticket … but for statement that’s not MBS they wud contact the bank to know if truly the account num is domiciled with them and if truly the amount showing on the statement is real as at the date it was printed out

Dolaqueen:
Hello guys! Please does IRCC have direct access to ones bank account?!!! How did they confirm the money is there and legit?

Is it necessary to upload siblings birth cert in d family info section by merging d family info pdf form with the birth certs or upload only d family info form in dat section and upload d birth certs in client info section?

Big thanks �
