I will advise your sponsor to transfer the required funds to the applicant's account this will demonstrate that the applicant has full access to the funds, and other documents should follow to back the source of the sponsor's income.

febishola20:
Please if like to know if a sponsor’s company account is good for proof of funds, or it has to be a personal account, i need urgent response please

Yes, you can apply for VV it won't affect it.

Chibzzy789:
Good day House. Is it a wise idea for someone whose study visa application was denied due to financial reasons to apply for Canadian visit visa?

Thanks

IRCC number you should call them +1 (800) 267-6788

Jonmayer:
Thank you for your response. Do you mean to just call the embassy in Nigeria or is there a special number for these queries?

PCC is not mandatory

Chapecoense:
Please does anyone know if police report is mandatory before submitting the application.

You can call them and also send webform

Jonmayer:
Hello everyone

Please I need some insight. My brother has been waiting for a response from IRCC for about 6 months, but it’s been radio silence. He applied and did upfront medicals/biometrics since last November, and after the confirmation, there hasn’t been any word from them. I keep hearing that there is huge backlog, but the delay it’s starting to give me concern. He even had to defer his admission. Is anybody else in this boat or is there some action we could take? Thank you.

You can, but preferably use the one you got from the banking hall, because it carries the stamp

Wonder1844:
Good morning all.
Please can I upload account statement downloaded from my bank app to ircc? Or it must be scanned copy I got from the banking hall. Thanks.

Then find a way to get your POF done

Bikes:
It only covers tuition

Yes, PA can use 2 different accounts just have the required funds and make sure the accounts meet the 4-6 months requirement.

clemosa:
My bosses, can a PA use two of his different accounts to show POF? Let say money in his Fidelity Bank and Wema bank because he cannot move all funds to one bank account.

Please your advice is needed urgently. This is delaying is application for study visa

Congratulations on your full scholarship, what does it cover? because some full scholarship covers living expenses too. If yours only covers tuition then find a way to make up for the living expenses.

Bikes:
Please I need help on how to go about proof of funds. I am self-sponsored and by God's grace I was able to secure full-tuition scholarship from Dalhousie University Canada, something I have chased for 4years now. I have personal saving of about $1,300 dollars and I am still saving up. The challenge is showing proof of living expenses which is about CAD20,635. I have not been able to file in my application because of this. My admission is for September. Please I desperately need help on how to go about this. Thank you.

If your medical will only be updated if it shows a pass not when the medical center sent it. You can contact Qlife if they have sent the result.

mayrhe:
I did mine at Qlife as well on April 19 and 10 working days excluding public holidays suppose to be May 6 for me, however, luckily I got a mail from Qlife yesterday which was day 7 that they've sent my result to ircc, although it has not been updated on my ircc portal.

I didn't submit any webform, my advice is for you to wait till day 10, then you can send an email to Qlife after that day to confirm what's going on if you still receive a mail from Qlife

The old portal can still be used.

Kenn55:
Someone told me that she wanted to use the old portal to apply for study permit and visit visa for her 3 yr old child but saw a statement that says you can only use the old portal for study permit if you are applying together with a family member that requires a work permit. Her child won't require a work permit. It seems this is a new development.
Does anyone understand this?

I have responded.

JJCE:
Have sent you Pm kindly reply

You can either use the LOE for financial explanation or include it in your SOP

Putin007:
For someone going for a two year program but only have a year of living expenses,

This "plan", will it be written in the SOP or in the LOE of finances. ?

No, please use commercial bank

Olandanswer:
Hello house please can one use a mortgage bank for POF?
Thank you.

No, you can not use MFB (micro finance bank).

victorygiven:
Hi guys, pls can someone use microfinance bank as proof of funds? Hope it doesn't have any effect

For a four-year program, you can show funds for 2 years, while you draft out a plan to pay up for the other 2 years.

igmentality:
Please. im doing a 4 year undergraduate program and my agent is saying that i need to show proof of funds for 4 years. That kind of money is not feasible.. i have enough for the first 2 years. please should i disregard what the agent is saying and go on with what i have ..

I think CAC information can be updated, because the original founders of a company can sell or part of their shares and this will have to be back up with legal documents or the CAC profile updated.

OTSAMUEL:
PLEASE URGENT RESPONSE NEED FOR THIS PLEASE CAC GURUS IN THE HOUSE

It is advisable to have your complete funds available to you, to avoid telling convincing stories how you will fund the 2nd year.

EbenMayor:
For real? I thought pof is only for one year

You need to determine that
POF= 1st year tuition fee + 2nd year tuition fee + 1 year living expenses + 2nd year living expenses

Phemmyadot:
Hello house,

My wife got her PAL for Red Deer Polytechnic last week. How much POF will she need and for how long?

Thanks

1. Yes, he can apply from inside Canada
2 & 3. He should go ahead to make his tuition fee payment while you and your family can act as his sponsor, submit all required documents, and ensure he does it as if he is applying outside of Canada.
4. Instead of opening an account why not go with the GIC option. I think this will be better because the account might not meet the 4-6 month requirement.

Aibisoye0:
Hello House,

Please I have a quick question. My brother who has a visit visa has recently gotten admission to school here in Canada while on holidays. He was planning to go back in July. Now that he has gotten an admission he will like to apply from here.

My questions go thus:
1. can he apply from here while on a visit visa as inside canada or outside canada?

2. He only has his full Tuition for the one year program and my wife and I are willing to sponsor him and show the living cost balance from our Canadian joint bank statements.

3. What will I need to provide him if we are to stand as his sponsor?

4. Does he need to open a bank account here since he's around and we transfer the funds in there for him to support his application or bank statements/T4/Employment details from both wife and I will suffice?

Please house, I will need clarity on this.. anyone who has been in same situation before.

Thank you.

Okay, it's good your company is willing to support your trip to Ireland and has given some SOA, however, you will still submit your SOA, employment documents, personal documents, and reasons for your visit to the places you intend to visit, what are the things that attracted you. etc

LordCenturion:
Hi Segunagagu, ICaSNg and JMG12

I want to visit Ireland for two weeks, I want to spend my leave there, and I have informed my employer and they have decide to sponsor my travel due to my hardworking(they will only pay ticket fee and a little pocket money) ..
They are preparing my sponsorship letter, my boss has already gave me 6 months bank statement of our company, I have started the process online, please I want you to advise me on proper documents to submit so that I can be granted a visa, thanks...

the duration can not be determined, it can come anytime after medical has been passed kindly be wait and patient

Bohye84:
Hello Gurus!

Please how long does it take for PPR to land after Medical is shown passed, especially for an upfront medical applicant who submitted medical report with the SP application.

Thanks

Is your dad the one applying for SP? what you are trying to do will likely result in visa refusal. The money should be sent to your account, explain the lump sum with documents, let your uncle be a sponsor, attach his documents, source of income, TCC, CAC, letter of support, board resolution if the company is partnership, proof of relationship. I believe this will help

Daaaz0409:
Please I have more questions regarding this pof

I’m using my dad as my full sponsor but the lump sum is going to be paid into his account from my uncle’s company account,

1. can the money be paid at once or should it be in bits
2. we plan on explaining that he sold one of his landed properties for the money, what are the additional documents that would be required to support the pof.
3. Does he need to submit bank statements from his other accounts? Or just the account with the pof
4. Should he include documents of his other properties or it’s not needed
5. How long should the money stay in his account before we print the statement?

You can schedule an upfront medical without an IME number. Send them an email
Don't submit your application without your account, your hubby should send the funds to your account.
yes, you can sign electronically for those that require it while others you validate the form.

SimiMaya:
Please how do I do upfront medicals with IoM in Abuja without IME number? I cant proceed with the appointment scheduling on the website without it.

Also, I am using my husband’s account and my office is sponsoring me. Actual study leave to return after the program. Is there anything I need to look out for? Can I submit documents signed electronically or it must be wet ink signature? All advice will be appreciated- please.

Thank you

Using a corporate account, you will have to submit a TCC along with it.

igmentality:
Please is there anything wrong with using a business account for POF ??.

N.B theres also a loan on the account. but the account has a steady inflow.

Just be calm it will update, that is for sure. The issue is from their end.

milkay:
My medical passed on Thursday last week but I got an update today and when I checked the medical is blank no more updates.

Plus it’s been over 2 weeks I reapplied but the tracker has not captured my application.

Should I be worried?

You will have to address the concern of the vo when applying for SP, it's more complex than VV.

Ajebogirl:
Hello everyone I first applied for a visit visa sometime last year, and this was the reason I was denied. Now that I want to apply for a study visa, what do I need to work on based on the reasons for the refusal of the visit visa. Thank you.

An important aspect of the application is finance your sponsor might not liquidate his investment but the visa officer wants to see that the funds are already available to you or you will have to convince the visa officer that the invested funds will be available to you

NicoleThelma:
Congratulations!! May God’s name be praised!

Please I would like to ask if it was really necessary to liquidate your assets.
My sponsor has like quarter of the money for living expenses in his naira account and also dollar account(we’ve already paid 50% of the fees) . But he has some assets like treasury bills, bonds, huge pension and also tenancy agreements to prove that he gets incomes monthly from being landlords in different places.

Is this enough to prove the fund? As he’s not willing to start liquidating his assets but he’s willing to share all these certificate of assets with me. The sponsor is my father btw.
God bless you as you respond.

NSCC is a public school, they are eligible to give PGWP. I recommend

Bowluwahtifeh:
Good day everyone. I want to apply to NSCC but the new rule which states that people who study in affiliated campus won't be eligible to pgwp from September.....
Which of the NSCC is affiliated so I can avoid it? They have about 10 campuses. Google is not giving me the answer

The money held in the sponsor's acct doesn't truly reflect that the funds will be available, you need to convince the VO that the funds will be available.
Note, sponsor can't use the closing balance to support the PA, so a portion of that funds should be set aside for PA, this should be converted in sponsorship letter/support letter.

Daveconsult007:
Greetings gurus,

Please I need your insight on this POF, asking for a friend,

The applicant is being sponsored by her cousin but she also has own money in her account.

Going for 2 year program, total cost is 22k

1)First full year tuition paid by Sponsor 14,750.00cad
2) 21,000CAD GIC deposit made by applicant
(Sponsor contributed to her GIC investment)

Sponsor's current balance is 59-70K

Applicant closing balance is 11.3M Naira

Please how is this POF looking? Gurus help me

Yes, that is what I met. CAC is not enough SOA(not compulsory), invoice, payslips, TCC and contract agreements

maziemeka2024:
Thanks for the response.

When u said the applicant has to prove the source of funds, you mean the applicant needs to prove where the sponsor got the funds?

Also, appart from business registration of the sponsor, what else is needed to prove the source of the fund ?

1. The sponsor doesn't need to submit SOA
2. Yes, the PA needs to prove the relationship with the sponsor and source of funds
3. The funds should be transferred immediately if it is available, he can leave the funds until he gets a decision based on the application

maziemeka2024:
Hello all, I am asking on behalf if a friend who's brother will be presented as sponsor.

Funds will be gathered from various people and paid into the sponsors account. Then sponsor will then transfer to his account as the applicant.

The questions are

Is the sponsors own bank statement required?

Does the sponsor have to provide any further documentation as to where the money came from?

When does the funds need to be transfered and how long will it be in the applicants account?
