Hello Good people of Nairaland, thesoj, justwise, ganiuadeoye et al

I was denied based on Purpose of Visit ONLY. I suspect not including statement of purpose must have contributed to this. I'm 40. I have HND Accounting. I want to pursue a BSc degree in Business Administration. I also applied for TRV for my wife and 3 children so they could visit me in Canada whenever they are on vacation. I want to know whether I could use the medical I did while reapplying. Will I ask IOM Ikeja to send it to CIC or get a copy and include it in my documents when reapplying? I did paper application initially and still want to do paper application again. I didn't do upfront medical initially. I got a medical request via mail. I have written a detailed letter of purpose to be included in my application this time. Thanks for taking time to address my challenges. God bless you all.



MY DOCUMENTS
I'm self sponsored and self-employed and I submitted these documents:
Admission letter,
Personal SOA (5.7m)
Virgin International Passport,
Building Design printout (Jointly owned by my wife and I),
Birth certificate, Police Clearance certificate
HND Accounting (2004) Certificate, NYSC 2005 Certificate
ACCA Result Sheet (Showing I've passed 11/14 papers, In my opinion, there's no academic gap cos I still sat exam in Dec, 2015 and passed)
Company Registration Documents and evidence of Job done
Past Employment & promotion letter
Evidence of student's payment account of 5,950 CAD
Evidence of Hostel application fee, security and confirmation deposit

MY WIFE & KID'S DOCUMENTS
International Passport showing one UK travel history for her and 2 of the kids.
SOA (1.2m)
School certificates
Employment letter and introductory letter showing her total package and level at work
Introductory letter from the kid's school that they would go on vacation in April (We anticipated that I would have gone in January) and school fees receipt

Let me say again that I did paper application, was called for medical and the VO only ticked 'Purpose of Visit' ONLY as the basis for refusing both applications. Thanks for your assistance Justwise.

He later asked me to help him find any other school, and introduced one of his friend called Benjamin to me who is also interested in Language course.

I applied for both of them in Sungsan Hyo University, after some time, they told me that they rejected his documents and send me a mail that the senate will consider his friends application which is still in progress now.( check below for the mail from the school)
Anyone can contact the school for clearance if they need even though i told him to.)

I then checked his documents and find out that his 
1. Waec grades are not visible,
2. The birth certificate he submitted has two peoples pictures. (His cousins picture attesting)
3. The names on the Waec and on the International passport are not the same.
4. The legalization stamp on his documents was not seen at all.
5. Instead of submitting parents ID, he submitted his sponsors International passport so there were two international passports on his documents.
6. Change of name affidavit.

I asked him if he is the owner of the certificates , he said yes that he did change of name which he gave me affidavit already.

I realized that this why they rejected his documents and accepted his friends documents because his friends document was very plain and clear and properly arranged.

He now pleaded that i should please find solutions, i told him that it will be hard but we will rearrange the documents and try only one school that i know that is still accepting language students now because its late entry.

I suggested Kyonggi, and as is being done, you have to use a korean sponsor or a student in the school already, so that they can accept the admission, i contacted my friend there and asked him to process the admission, they processed the admission but this week is Chinese, Korean new year so its a public holiday for monday-wednesday and so i told him to exercise patient till thursday.

On thursday, he asked me how far, so i contacted the guy and he said the school forwarded the email to him that he his friend been offered admission, and not him.

I forwarded the message to his friend that day, but last night, he started insulting himself on whatsapp that its a fake bank account and fake phone numbers because its not the same account that is on the school website.

olaniyisal:
Thank you for the response. I appreciate.
What are the necessary documentations the company will issue to me.

hayqinsbFX:
PLEASE stop hammering on this point as no one here has said they would sell the properties to keep you in canada.....
your sponsors properties can show you can sustain myself in canada........there are rents that are collected per year and all.....

olaniyisal:
Yes. I work for the company.

olaniyisal:
Can a company act to sponsor an individuals

thesoj:
While I agree that many documents that Naija applicants use are junk, @justwise I have to disagree with you on the bolded. @HayqinsbFX is correct. The sponsor's capital assets show the VO that he/she is robust outside of his/her liquid funds. If the sponsor is a parent, then those capital assets in some way also show that the applicant "may" have something to come back home to if he/she isn't able to stay legally in Canada anymore.

Also, I think study leave letters in general are not a terrible idea, but most Naija applicants have made them terrible because many such docs are either faked or don't make sense (e.g. study leave for a job unrelated to the course of study, four-year study leaves, study-leave for a very low-paying job, etc) when included in the application. Study leave letters (and an accompanying letter from the company to the embassy) only make sense when the training the applicant is going for is being sponsored by the company and the applicant indeed will use the skills for a technical area sorely needed by the company.

dannywest01:
ok just wise thanks a lot. Was just trying to prove family ties. Guess birth certificate will be enough then.

dannywest01:
no they are here in nigeria

hayqinsbFX:
nothing special.....
dont discourage people from submitting docs that can aid their apps....that is what iim saying to you....

even CIC said ASSETS can be uploaded in the proof of support so where are you coming from....

Mizbaby:
What these embassy people want to see is raw, fluid cash in your sponsor's account. I have a friend that submitted all his father's land and property documents with little money in his account and he was denied.

I did not submit any of my parent's property documents in my application. I also have land documents in my name and I did not submit them because it makes no point to me.

Will my father sell the roof over his head to pay my school fees?

You sef think am...

dannywest01:

hayqinsbFX:
youre wrong, you sponsors land and property documents has a role in proving that he is capable of sponsoring you.....
click on the help button beside the proof of financial support to understand better.....and if he is your father it is a kind of tie too....

malaoluolateju:
Thanks guys, I wish u knew I embarrassed I was to ask that question in the first place.
Yes, it's a genuine firm, though young, and no one has yet to ask for a study leave.
Appreciate u guys, will take it from here.

blza:
I hv airline tickets , boarding passes (can't find all), hotel booking . Do I need to include copies of entry and exist stamps

Also hubby submitted his app on tuesday and got reception notification from Sheffield Wednesday . Is it usually this quick. I am under pressure to finalise my docs and send to Sheffield

MrsDan:
Hello all
Can anyone tell me the cost & procedure of having a baby in Canada? Will baby get citizenship like USA? Hospital costs, accomodation, transportation etc...Just any other information one may need please.
Many thanks

Mizbaby:
It is really wrong when Nigerians submit fraudulent documents. It causes these embassies to unnecessarily scrutinize all submitted documents in applications whether genuine or not, leading to increase in processing times and agony and heartache for applicants.

You don't need a study leave letter to secure a trv. Just present your case well the best way you can and leave the rest to God.

Na all of us go suffer am...

malaoluolateju:
Thank you justwise. Now that I am sure it should not be addressed to the embassy, would like ideas on its content.
Noticed U crossed out some paragrahs, could u share wot and wot the study leave letter shld entail then. @mizbaby ur input on wit it should entail is also needed

Mizbaby:
I have to ask you this....do you really work in an organization and is this study leave letter genuine?

If you do, your company managers would inform you of the procedures to follow, how to address your application letter and who to submit it to. You would not be at a loss.

That being said, you can visit www.leaveletters.com or just google it up.

aliACCA:
Here's an idea: To get a study leave letter sample, you could look through the document list of other people on this thread and PM whoever's list contains a study letter.

[s]In any case, here are my two cents for a study leave letter addressed to the embassy. Note that this is just a suggestion and you will customize it to your situation.

First paragraph:
Company states the purpose of the letter (i.e. study leave for John Doe, who has been working for us for X years as a blah blah). Company describes the business they are into, your role in that business, and the significance of what you do for them.

Second paragraph:
Company describes why they are giving you a study leave (e.g. giving John Doe a study leave because he expressed interest pursuing MSc degree in blah blah which we believe would help our business in ABC area when he comes back.). Company says nice things about your contributions to the company and how exactly they think your study leave would help fill a skills gap that they are currently having. Company explains the terms of the leave (i.e. paid or unpaid? length of the leave? etc... the company should be explicit and precise about the terms of the leave).

Third paragraph:
Company says more nice (but realistic) things about you and what role you would be coming back to when you are back from Canada. i.e. same role? will you be promoted? (fyi, they don't have to discuss this if they don't want to... they just have to explain what general area of work they anticipate using your skills in when you come back...).[/s]
Fourth paragraph:
Company wishes you the best and endorses your visa application to the embassy.

PS: This is just a skeleton that you should add more to and customize to your own peculiar situation.

written by thesoj not me..... https://www.nairaland.com/thesoj/posts/8

i thought it wise to copy and paste and since it will suffice in helping u draft urs.

Mizbaby:
Well....when you apply for a study leave it should be addressed to your company and not the embassy. Your company approves your study leave and issues you an approval for study leave endorsed by the managing director or whoever is in charge.
I work in a government agency and I'm currently on a study leave. I submitted my letter of approval for study leave in my application and it was not addressed to the embassy. Introductory letter from your company is what you address to the embassy. Study leave letter is to the MD/DG of your company.
Just my opinion....

johnwick1:
Someone should pls respond

zandora:
To those of you wanting to post the copy of your degree certificate to WES, you could scan it and email it to me so I can post it for you as it'll be faster and way cheaper - that is if you want though (I'll do it for free obviously and send u a copy of the receipt). I'm doing this to show my appreciation to those who told me to be patient in my job search and not give up because I've now landed a nice bank job
