Sorry did you use WES for your certificate translation or you used notarized results.

I didn't need to do a WES evaluation. Just submitted my transcript.

Congrats
Please do you mine sharing your profile as in the followings;
1. School program you went in for & previous education ?
2. Sponsorship was it dad, mum, uncle or friend
3. Others tips that helped out.
It would help some of us a lot & we are going to be appreciative.
Regards.

Humber College, Public relations. Previous education was Bachelors-Mass Communication. I'm self sponsored. Got an introduction letter from my office stating study leave approval and resumption date. Had a 10-year study gap but I have been working right from leaving school so was able to justify that with all employment appointment letters. I believe I also had a very detailed letter of explanation too. For everything I stated in the LOE, I had documents as proof including picture evidence where necessary.
At the end, no application is perfect. Pray for grace! It will end in praise for you and everyone still expecting an approval.

I got my passport back today. It’s exactly a month since I submitted it to Lagos VFS. So happy to be free from those guys.

Good day House, Anyone who has an idea about Humber College. I saw one is meant to pay tuition deposit after acceptance of admission. I mailed them asking what about refunds on tuition, they dodged the question.
Does anyone have an idea about it here? Kindly assist

You are given a deadline to pay your fees depending on your start date. If you can't pay before the deadline, it's safe to request for a deferral. You are eligible for a full refund if you let Humber College know by the tenth day of classes, that you will not be attending school. You must also show proof of study permit refusal if that is your reason.

I have really disturbed these VFS Lagos guys ooo.. just called today and immediately I said hello, the lady just called my full name and said what is it this time? Both of us started laughing. Chai

KRTL:
Pls explain this agent and Ontario college thing to me,cos I am applying to Humber college. Pls I need to understand.thank you

You don’t need an agent. You can apply directly to the school as an international student. I’m also going to Humber. Simply go to the school’s website, click on programs. On your selected program page, click on “HOW TO APPLY”. There’s a session for international student. Click on “APPLY THROUGH THE INTERNATIONAL CENTRE”
This is a pretty easy and direct process you can handle yourself. Go through the program requirement and upload the necessary documents you need. All the best!

Dora14:
Please what does the enrollment letter look like

It defers for every school. Your school should have it on their student portal where you can download it as a file. If not, you can mail the school to request it provided you’ve paid at least a semester fee. I downloaded mine from my student account page.

No you don't need a transit visa if that is your only stop on KLM/Airfrance.

However, if you are stopping over in 2 Schengen countries (on the same trip) or in the USA, you need a transit visa. I learned the 2 countries thing first hand at the airport in 2011. I had to buy another ticket at MMA in Lagos, that showed my direct connection from Frankfurt to Montreal (instead of Frankfurt to Albania to Montreal), before they could allow me board.

The longer flight schedule or many stopovers often are cheaper compared to direct flights but don't fall into the trap where you will learn at the last minute that a transit visa is required for the seemingly cheaper routes.

It will end in praise!

Yes, that's my only stop on KLM. Thanks Akanni.

adeenzo:
No you don’t need a transit visa...
KLM is a very good airline but it’s quite on the high side (pricey) right now tho

Thanks! Yeah, you are right, its a little more expensive than others but gives a shorter travel time on air.

Hello house, does a Nigerian require a transit visa when having a layover of 8 hours at Amsterdam (Schiphol) airport please? I'm looking at booking my flight to Toronto with KLM.

Dampops:
You can send me a mail

Just did. Thanks!

Can someone kindly send me the courier consent form please? I can't get through to VFS.

KRTL:
Pls does anyone know if Humber college refunds payment?

Yes they do if your reason is Covid or Study permit refusal. You can’t get a refund if your request is 10 official days after the start of classes.

Blavkmaann:
VFs sent one mail yesterday that my passport was ready, then after like 30 mins they sent another mail saying I should pay 11310, and fill one concent form

But I already filled the form anD paid on Sunday that’s like 3 days ago, so I just resent the mail!

PLEASE THOSE OF US THA HAVE COLLECTED THEIR PASSPORT BACK FROM VFD LAOS THRU UPS HOW WAS IT ABEG?

Hello, which of the VFS account numbers did you pay to please?

Kunnmi:

Oh I see. I’m a lady. I plan to arrive in the third week of December. Let me know what apartment you find. You can send me an email please. Thanks.

Guys, it’s good to send mails ooo.. I just got final approval and counter foil after sending mail to Lagos IRCC this morning. I have never received an email from VFS ever since I submitted my passport.

Kunnmi:
Anyone coming to Toronto/Mississauga. interested in renting an apartment. we can rent a 2 bedroom and split. holla if interested, please

Hello I’m going to Toronto. Are you a guy or a lady please?

joyenaholo11:
Please, I’m still unable to track my passport.
Can someone please help me with the vfs number, the one in their website says it isn’t allocated.
Please help, please.

Keep trying that same number. The response you got “not allocated” is what it always says till it finally goes through.

Kandybite:
@JayLaw2 did you need IELTS to apply for Humber college?

Nope, you don’t. As long as you’re a Nigerian and studied in Nigeria.

badmanjo:
Sorry would like to know if you had to pay for 1st semester fees before receiving a letter of acceptance from Humber?Thanks

No, I didn’t have to pay. You get an instruction on your tuition deposit when you get your letter of acceptance. I even deferred my admission from September 2020 to January 2021 without paying fees. I only paid before the winter 2021 tuition deposit deadline.

Hello!! Anyone who will be studying at Humber College? Will like to connect. I’m hoping to travel in December after my passport is returned.

Nyenyenwq:
Please how did you get these people on phone? It keeps saying the number is not available or busy. Finally I got them but entered automatic reply and after the whole pressing of numbers to direct me to a representative the call just ended on its own. I submitted mine since first week of November, no mail at all. I'm tired oh��

I can understand your frustration. I just kept trying and trying. It can be really crazy getting through to them. Sometimes, the line also cuts right after getting through to a customer rep. You will need to persistently try. Maybe calling in the morning at about 9am does the magic. I get them easily at that time. �

I think you just have to be persistent with the calls till you get the tracking number.

Thanks. I called again this morning and finally got a tracking ID. Passport still at embassy.

Hello all, this has been a very informative platform. I got my PPR on Nov 10 and sent my passport to VFS Lagos on the 11th. Up till now, I still don’t have a tracking ID. I submitted the required documents-biometric slip, PPR form, Consent forms and sent through DHL. I didn’t need to pay transmission fee as I did my biometrics in Lagos. Each time I call, they keep telling me you will get a tracking ID at the end of the day. Is anyone in this situation please? It’s getting tiring.
