Sorry about your refusal
How much was your proof of funds compared to your tuition, did you show any relationship between you and your sponsor? Was any tuition payment made?

I'm going as a self-sponsored and I've made part payment of my tuition fees ($6,504 CAD). My tuition fees for 1yr program is $17,504, i showed $25,486 as POF.

My SP got refused yesterday

App Submitted: February 21st
Biometrics: February 27th (got updated same day)
Breakfast: March 7th (last night)

Generic Response;

I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as required by
paragraph R216(1)(b) of the IRPR (https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/sor-2002-227/
section-216.html). I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will
leave Canada, based on the following factors:

• Your assets and financial situation are insufficient to support the stated purpose of travel
for yourself (and any accompanying family member(s), if applicable).

I've been weak and tired since last night 🥺

OLAMINREWA:

Danilvex:
No I don’t, but my email was used and I am supposed to receive mail in case of any update

You cannot know the status of your application if you don't have access to ur portal. Meet your agent to release your login details.

daezy22:
Hi everyone, if you got accepted to Cambrian college, I would like to confirm if Ielts is a compulsory admission requirement as a Nigerian student. Thanks.

No, it's not

Danilvex:
Can anyone advice on what to do
Submitted application Nov 29
Biometrics Dec 12
And I haven’t heard anything from my agent since then neither have I received any email from Ircc till date

Do you have access to your portal? Let's start with that.

If one is going as a self-employed and you actually own and run the business yourself, is it true that you need to be paying yourself salary every month, like you need to show proof that you've been paying yourself.

OLAMINREWA:
It is your surname as long as she has done change of name to your surname, and there is also affidavit to support it.

GL

Ok, thank you. And someone said it's her maiden name cos her valid ID I'll be submitting bears her maiden name that's why i had to ask.

While filling the IMM forms, under Family name for my spouse, what should be there, is it her Maiden name or my Surname which she changed to?

Good day famz, please is it necessary to Notarize a consent letter from my spouse?

johnstan:
By consent letter, do you mean letter of sponsorship?
I'm not clear on what a spousal consent letter is.

If you mean a letter stating that she's fine with your plans and will efficiently take care of your fam in your absence then you can go ahead to draft a letter to that effect. Depending on the length of time you will be away, explain the things you've put In place to ensure she is able to hold and support the fam till your return.

If you mean a sponsorship letter then that entails you drafting one stating how much she's willing to set aside for your studies or the bills she's willing to pay on your behalf.

Thank you for your response bro, the first answer to my question has given me the answer i need to my question.

I'm going as a self-sponsored, please how do i go about "Consent Letter'' from my wife.

@Johnstan @Pace6 @Bullstriker @all

Joedave25:
@JDB55,

You can request for a reference letter through any of the bank branches irrespective of where your account is domiciled.

I hope this helps

Yes, thank you

Pace6:
Just walk in to any branch, as long as you have account with them, tell them what you want and what you need it for. They charge for it though. I was charged 560 or 650 for mine. Recommendation letter.

Goodluck

Thank you, i was able to get across to my account officer and she was able to get it done for me. BTW, i was charged N537.50 for it.

tmcduke:
Did you know that Canada added 16 more occupations that can receive permanent residency?? This means more routes for the express entry applicants...

They however dropped 3 occupations that were previously on there

I have the full list on my website

Yinmu, if we began to hide info and be referring people to our websites, i wonder if this thread will still be like the way it is today.

Thomsyne:
Any branch will do. Just go there and request for reference/covering letter. Tell them you want to use it for visa application then give them the address the letter should speak to. They’ll know what to do

I just did as you said, btw i have both savings and corporate account with that bank, so my account officer is asking me if i want two references or both account details in one letter, since they're going to the same place. What's your take on this

Good morning guys, please how do i go about getting a reference letter from the banks i have accounts with? Also, must it be the branch where i opened the account or just any branch. thank you

@Charitojames @Johnstan @Pace6 @Thomsyne

CharitoJames:
Guys… It’s PPR for my kid sister… she’s 20years and going to Memorial University… everything about this her application, i did it myself from the admission to Visa application. God! I feel like crying. She’s to resume January 5th.

Applied - 30th August
Biometrics- 1st September and updated same day
Medicals didn’t get updated until i sent them a mail late Nov and it got updated after a few days on the 30th of November.
Earlier this week, i sent another mail to them reminding them of resumption and also that eligibility hasn’t started yet.
This morning 8th December, i checked her GCKey and nothing was there… then this evening at 6:44… the love letters dropped.
I logged in and saw Eligibility has started and application Dapproved.

This could be God. She had the most imperfect application. No Tuition paid just compulsory fee of 300CAD.
Pof was 24M only and nothing else…

Documents Submitted.
All IMM documents
Other required documents on the GCKey
Dad’s Mbs of 24M
Mom’s Mbs of 2M plus
Her Mbs of 50k.. Lmao
Property papers
Family pictures

She didn’t submit much…

Congratulations to her, i believe her own application should ginger you to refire, i wish you all the best in advance.

3rd attempt, 40yrs Old Lady�
Thank you Awesome God
Long post alert.

I am one person that never wants to leave Nigeria cause of the issues and racism abroad. But that changed when Buhari declared to run for 2nd term in 2018. I was livid and knew he will win and the decay n destruction going on post 2015 will be worst�

My fear was for my children, is this the environment i want them to flourish in?
So 2018 i began with wes runs,did ietls 2018 ,2019 got into the EE pool with a low score,2019 I pushed my husband to write ietls while his wes runs was completed.

Still we didn't make high scores, so i channelled my quest to pnp, got ita twice from Saskatchewan pnp, and twice the relative that gave me the sponsorship in Saskatchewan declined.

So back to ground zero, 2020 i went for another ietls while 7month pregnant �, i received gbas,gbos, chai, then Corona lock down.

Ending 2020 i began searching for schools and applied to different colleges, cos i had 2.2 undergrad and and MBA so i felt getting direct master was impossible�

2021 got my admission from centennial college to read project management.

1st app july 16 refused In September or so
2nd app Nov refused jan 20th
This 2 app i used Centennial admission, and Gcms notes on both occasions stated lower degree from what i currently have in masters and no job prospects in home country.

After the 1st refusal i started looking for schools for masters.The process was very very daunting, i applied to Royal road Bc and Crandall University NB

Crandall came through for me(Master in Org Management)
3rd App 1st May ppr July 25th 2022�

My patience was tested on this journey, i have already started plan b moves to Uk, that by Jan i will be on my way out,as i have 3 Admissions from uk schools in the bag for me.

Documents submitted in all 3 applications are as follows

Passport page
School certificates
Transcript
Embassy reference from my organisation
Birth certificate for me ,husband n my 3kids
National population cert for the whole family
Landed Documents
Power of attorney of my mums property
Certificate of return
Finacial docs (using mybankstatement)
LOA
Passport photo
Cv
Family photos

I had my dear friend and colleague who was with me guiding and pushing me from the get go,MO you are the MVP
I got inputs from Gms writers justmellow
Frank did a great work on my application.

Its not a journey truly for the faint hearted, perseverance is needed and eyes on the ball always,never mind what it takes especially monetery wise.
All those expecting or applying push push until u receive yours, God will crown all our efforts in Jesus name.

Where are my fellow Crandall Students
Though had to defer to May 23 as slots for September is full already.
Thank you Nairaland Family �

Please, did they request for IELTS from you?

Teezkid:
You can apply for a PGD course, and what you defended in your project doesn’t really have to play much of an effect, all that matters is if you have been working 3-5 years ( career progression), what you also studied in school ( recent graduate; academic progression). a lot of people here apply for pgd courses and still get their visas.

Thanks, i studied Education Accountancy and graduated last year. Though, i've been trading digital currency (Cryptocurrency) since when i was in my 200L till date.

johnstan:
Only you can answer these questions honestly, asking here would not change anything if you get what i mean.

Masters programs are generally more expensive than post graduate diploma programs (not always)

A post graduate diploma is a shorter version of a masters program (reduced course load - target is to enhance your skills FOR BETTER JOB OFFER).

A post graduate diploma is not less than a BSC, it is a (program you take after a degree program not before). It is only a red flag if you have a masters degree and then want to go for a PGD but hey people still do that successfully cos after all PGD means post graduate, it does not define what your level of degree should be.

Just calculate your finance, make up your mind and go for it.

Good luck

Thanks my bro, your response have been very much helpful

Trackeo:
It looks some how shai....jus go for the masters.....my advice....look for a cheap school offering your course....GRE/GMAT about this one i don't know....for me,this depends on the course you are going for....GRE and GMAT there is a way to waive it....if you do your findings well....

Can't i just go for a PGD instead
i'm speaking based on what i can afford.

johnstan:
There is no stipulated time for admission, it can take a week, 2 weeks or even a month depending on the school you apply to and your documents.
You have 5months from now till January to get your admission and process your visa.
Processing these two past your admission date is not something you should be worried about because you can always defer your admission to a later intake.
Your worry should be having enough documents to successfully process your visa. Admission is not really much of a hassle especially for PGD programs.

Goodluck.

Thanks for your response my bro

Please, i would like to know if i can apply for admission (winter intake which is January 2023), i don't know how long some schools will take to evaluate my credentials before offering me admission or i should just leave it and apply for either Spring 2023 or Fall 2023.

Your advise please.

Trackeo:
Hey..
A (2.1) is good... Buh from the experiences i have had with this admission thing in canada is that they want a well packaged application..For the course aspect,you need to do the findings...you know what you want..you do your research...one of the major angles i should point you to in finding a course is "what did you defend in your seminar"...start from there...in your course there should be branches....list them out....see the synergy btw one of them and your project...then start looking for schools with such....affordable fee....Go through the school requirement( as regards admission to the course) very well....very well... Package your file...apply....your application should be early....Thanks...

Thanks for the prompt reply. But, with my 2:1 is it gonna look somehow if one decides to go for a PGD course in a college cos i'm not considering a masters yet cos of the tuition fee but i can afford that of a college. Also, some requires one to have a GMAT/GRE which i don't have any. And lastly what i defended in my project was based on Education.

Good evening house, i recently got my transcript from my school. I graduated last year though it was supposed to be in 2020 but ASUU strike and the pandemic made it to enter 2021. I studied Education Accountancy and graduated with a 2:1 and i'm looking forward to applying for an admission in any of the colleges. Please, which course can one go for to prove career progression in line with what i have studied.

Congratulations, after Chiziteremary got hers and some Feb applicants. I saw how you were so much worried, regardless you started tapping from every persons testimony. Indeed, we serve a Living God who listen to the cry of His children. Congratulations once again. Canada will favor you.

Chiziteremary:

College of the North Atlantic.

How long did it took before you were given an admission? Also, was it an official transcript that you submitted or a scanned soft copy.

Please, who have an idea when most colleges will open their admission portal for fall 2023?
