I got message from VO requesting for my unconditional acceptance letter from my university. And shoud be submitted on o before june 9th.

I contacted my school and i havent gotten ani reply but its possible i will be asked to submit my English test score.

Dunno what to do now o.

but many other persons go abroad to study courses we already have here, even funded by our govt. i think the only thing missing is that he failed to prove he would get better education there than here, this can be resolved with an sop. Also visa application and outcome is highly dependent on who is reviewing it, his mood and so many other factors.. 1+1 !=2 all the time

Austinpee4:
One of the main perogative of the visa officer is to make sure the program choosen by applicants is right!

Once a VO picks up the application form, sees academic and work experience,that in itself has formed the greater part of the decision about the applicant's application.

They most likely will look at the applicant's primary intentions of studying in canada before the secondary parts begin to play out. Besides, what if you spend all the millions to acquire a masters of french lang in canada and the company does not send you there but rather employ a native french speaking national resident in your desired country(This will even be economically likely for any company to do),what then happens to the master you have gotten in canada? Use it in nigeria to get another job that is not likely? (if i can think like this as an ordinary person, what will you expect of people that have been trained for such purposes)

Those visa officers see pass what we all submit as applications. Everything must add up clearly and explicitly.

what if her company have branches in some francophone contrite and her intention is to be posted to one of those branches? Well even with that she must have to explain all that in details in her sop

Austinpee4:
Haba! Brother! You sef check am nau.. If you were a VO, would you consider your move convincing enough?

French language is not a lingua franca in nigeria, your current work experience is not in line with your intended program, you don't have any experience in either french lecturing or translation. There is no way this one will fly! No amount of grammar put together in your SOP will salvage this one.

French language master or traning can easily be gotten in nigeria or the next francophone nation. No VO will see any need for you to pursue this at masters level especially since you don't have direct work need and more over in canada where you will be spending huge funds to obtain.

Anyway, your next move should be a masters in what you are currently doing. It will show progression careerwise.
Forget consistency with your undergraduate degree. It is inconsequential at this stage.

Your current work experience should be inclining towards making you a 'MASTER' in the field. All academic/career advancement MUST be in this light and nothing more.

All the same, i'll advice you get your immigration file(GCMS) ASAP. It will tend to the inconsistencies.
Once it is ready, people here will help you make a better re-application.

Regards.

Damn! Your agent must have used fake documents with or without your consent. You definitely need to arrest them if it is without your consent. Sorry man.

The only option left is to challenge them to court. but you are likely not to win the case.

All the best, bro!

Austinpee4:
I don't think that will be necessary. If they needed a new SOA, it would have been requested for. Only provide what they request.

Please which one is most updated and current?

Austinpee4:
Very okay. CIC requires proof of funds of tuition plus a minimum of 10kCAD for the first year of study. However, you'll need to show that you can support yourself after first year if your program is more than a year.
Best thing to do is to either add a sponsor or show them proof that you will have more funds for living expenses for the 2nd year just for substantive evidence. With the funds you have stated, you are fine.

Austinpee4:
Firstly, i'll advise you consider paying your full tuition fees before re-applying. #JustAnAdvise

Now to your questions:

1.Yes,anybody can use a sponsor who will be willing to expend funds for his/her study and NO, it won't raise any red flag provided you prove and show you have access to the funds.

2.Sure,you can. If you can't prove relationship with your cousin, let him/her swear to an affidavit of sponsorship.

3.Fixed deposit is fixed deposit and a one time source or prove of funds.You can show prove of the FD without transfering it to any other account..You only need to prove that it will become available to you and when.

4. If it's personal funds for a year, it should be enough as long as the equivalent in CAD amount to atleast 10,000 CAD as required by CIC for a year.

5. If you feel it is necessary, you can briefly write about how you have been able to tackle the previous refusal reasons. They still will find out from their GCMS database notwithstanding whether or not you write about it.

Austinpee4:
Best way to go about this is for the sponsor to pay the full tuition and also transfer your living expenses to you.

By doing so, CIC may not really bother about where he/she resides and all.. Main thing is that you have funds for your study and yourself and can access it at anytime a need arises.

This is the main thing about funds availability. It MUST be accessible by the applicant. This is why a 3rd party sponsor will do more than just stating or writting.

@bold I believe the receipt you say in question is the receipt that emanated from the bank of origin that processed the transaction which is known as Telexcopy of Receipt.In addition I expected your experience.Can't you wait for your school in Canada to mail your soft copy of fee payment when the payment reflects on their system which will now be formal and in English language and avoid this issue of writing letter and explaining this and that to the Vo.To that effect,you can substantially claim to the VO that your original sponsor made this financial commitment

Austinpee4:
Ha! Biko o what could be so urgent? Did CIC tell you to give me my PR card already? Lol.

Anywhere, Just as i mentioned in the post you quoted, It's always good we share our concerns and issues here so others can benefit from the advise/solution that will be given.

You can PM me however but if it still bothers around all that have been discussed here, I MAY still advise that you read through previous posts, you will surely find pending answers.

Austinpee4:
I'm glad i helped. We always encourage ourselves to share study/visa related worries and issues here so they get different opinions and advises that profers solutions. Others will learn from this. So if you have any concern, feel welcome to share it here, people wil always help you.

I don't stay in lagos and i really can't say where exactly you can find centers to undergo training for these courses. Google should be your best tool to search. You could find one that will give you close proximity.

All the best to you.

Austinpee4:
If both of you bear same surname, you can add your birth certificates, his/hers..If non exist, don't forget to add an affidavit of sponsorship and a letter stating why he/she is sponsoring you.

michV:
Lolzz... This trend of I forgot,I mistakenly is a capital lie .I will only accept the reverse of my statement if only the applicant did not handle the re-application and that whoever handled it, may have failed to ask if he/she had been refused visa while preparing the application. This emerging act is mostly perpetuated by GUYS which I now portray as a purported act by Nigerians,having the mindset to try luck or a VO may be oblivious of such history of the refusal

Still to refresh mindsets,I like attending to study visa related questions which I have made my specialty on this forum than admission issues which I ll have to give kudos to @Thesoj,osemigho,yemdogg,folaroyal,cannyzionist,Austinpee,penin.. et al gurus
