deniyor: Forget the fact that canada needs people. When it comes to study visas, that is irrelevant.
The visa officials are supposed to assume every aspiring student is a potential immigrant or is never going to come back home.
If they allow everyone, then it becomes a strain on social services. And in canada, you dont need to be a citizen or PR to qualify for services.

Therefore it is on the applicant to prove that he/she does not intend to become an immigrant in canada. Whether thats what we want or not is irrelevant. What is relevant is can we prove it?

Sooo right. We all are guilty until proven innocent. Do you blame them? With too much magomago, fake docs even from the so called big men. But this one they now call to confirm balance na wa o.

Na wa o.

Abeg Frank; do let me know if the additional document (waec) you later sent to CDHC came back with your returned docs. Thanks

earthgreeners:

stop fooling urself here

@Earthgreeners: 1yr from now, we'll know whose is here fooling him or herself. Those who come running their mouth without a TRV or those who have asked stupid questions and got their TRV. You seem to be very rude.

spencer3705: @lilaowow,why do u mark all newcomers wit new usernames to be kehinde?dis is not mature and doesnt potray u well.itz time to be prayerful and leave d judgement to God since u cant help bt to suspect turning ursef to dectectv.lol.letz move on with d gud news i beg.free august aplicnt u arnt d only 1 in d house.

Thanks Spencer: please let the forum continue its course. My take is if only people can learn to mind their business, all these in fighting won't be neccesary. Somebody didn't steal from you and you are calling him/her criminal. Please lets mind the business of why we are here. Love to you all.

Worry is really just a smaller way to say we don't know if God will come through. It's our inability to trust Him to do what He says He will do.

Don't borrow trouble from tomorrow. Just cast all your cares on Him, for He cares for you. You give yourself negative emotion by worrying thereby making the solution far from reaching you.

Don't worry, God can and God will... Just believe and trust that He can.

lokzie: Hello Kenny,

I don't mean to be rude and i hope you don't misunderstand this. But i don't think it's fair to tantalize us with info and then hold it back. Just keep things to yourself it you don't want to share. if i didn't get to learn from others and have to opportunity to share as well, i probably wouldn't still be on this thread- i think i speak for a number of people here.

Please don't be offended and i am not trying to deride you but please be discrete with your hoarding info so others aren't encouraged to follow suit. if they were here (the people you are scared of) they would think you aren't being totally honest as per your variations and vacillations.

Cheers

Mr what haven't you heard before that its me that must tell you? I uploaded it for all to see. Not sure I have seen anyone did that. pls pls pls

Don Cipher: @KennyGGG, apology accepted. Any condition's given.

Here is the condition (See attachment): Like I said before, we dont know who is who. You can only speak for yourself my brother. Got my fingers burnt before.

If you didnt see wel sorry, removed it.

Don Cipher:

It's kind of confusing because i thought you submitted in August...https://www.nairaland.com/kennyggg/posts/1 The main reason i asked when you submitted...Cheers

But now you know the truth. A lot of people would do that for many reasons. Realising what and what, I decided to come out straight and that was why I posted a copy of CDHC further instruction. It takes time to build trust in a public forum. Sorry about that.

Don Cipher:
@KennyGGG, pls when did u submit?

June 22nd. @AugustApplicant since the restriction on uk schools. Canada admission have more than doubled.

..

efosa12345:

Y re we confusing ourselves, like my case the deadline for tuition was two days before I submitted my documents, if u pay because of the deadline cdhc will understand, after all we are not heading to same school don't use ur school decision to judge mine as long as I can ask for refund when the need arise I got not fear about that, if augustapplicant and I paid tuition fee it does not. Mean others should pay because not same school and program

Beside most schools if not all will offer a refund at the event you are refused. The only requirement is your refusal letter and timely re-call for funds in most cases about a $100 is forfeited.
Truth is CDHC knows this but De-emphasises it and bla bla bla

sucre cruz: @Earthgreener
My brother intend to apply for thier post graduate diploma in civil and geological engineering but he has a 3rd class with cgpa of 2.2 still dont know if the school will accept it for admission into thier post graduate diploma program.
How do we apply for the program if they actually grant it.

thank you for your response

@Sucre Cruz: Longest time. How is everything going with you? Canada accepts 3rd class into Advance diploma programs so its possible.

anyijoe: Pls house some1 should help me on these question!

I was denied! And the reason was "sponsorship not credible"

And only 2 colume were marked and it says
I have not convinced dem that I will survive in canada @ list for a year without working!

That was just d only reason!

My sponsor was a family frnd! D only thing his released to me was just statement of account and a land doc!...he refused to give me anything that has his company name of it! Or even letter headed paper for his consent letter! Tax clearance,lpo,invoice,data page of his passport or any other documents I asked him earlier...now that I was denied! He now want to make all those docs available to me and even pay one year tuition for me

My question is! Can I still use him? Since he was my formal sponsor of which I was denied..

And if yes! How can I go abt this! To prove to cdhc that I have enuf fund for my period of study in canada?

And wat are the docs I need to collect from him,if he were to be my sponsor again!...

And how do I prove my relationship to him or with my family to cdhc?

Or should I forget him and go for a more close relation with picture proof and family tree?

Pls I need any advise from you guys!...cos I've learnt only in this forum neva to give up! Thanks a lot 2 uall!

@justwise pls look into my case and ask any question u dnt understand! I will be here to answer! Thanks

Try use a relation this time with credible income but if you dont have any relation, then what can you do than go back to your first sponsor. God is involve.

pauloman:


Its a pity but what you said is very true and my take is they were probably reported to the CBSA officials by a black hater because for crying out loud these girls have come a long way with their studies and should have been treated liniently.

So where are the girls now?

pauloman: Congrats to all applicants that have gotten their trv and intending trv and medical hopefuls i am wishing you guys best of luck. It is good to see how this thread is growing so fast with more and more people joining up and hence making it one of the fastest growing threads (if not the fastest)on nairaland.

But this link i am posting now should be a note of warning to students and intending students to Canada that the government does not joke with their immigration laws. Please everyone here should endeavor to click on this link to view the information i am trying to pass across . Thanks and all the best to you all.

NB: Let us all endeavor to be Good and worthy Ambassadors of Nigeria in Canada !

Pauloman thanks o. A word is enough for the wise. My fellow Naija people se una dey hear o?

Jesus4all: If your confidence is in man, you have defined your limits! But if the Most High is your God... you have also defined your limits. Here is the truth though, in God, you have no limits; "for happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help..."! It is well with you TODAY!
MORE GOOD NEWS IN JESUS NAME

Jesus4all have introduced a new twist to this whole TRV Wahala o. He practically didn't submit the most important requirements yet got a medical call up. I guess we can all learn from this. While its important to stick to the rules, it appears the rules, like every other can be broken. So lets save ourselves the headache of over thinking and over dependent on credentials sometimes. Many more such news will be shared on this forum. I have always known thats how it works though. What the enemy meant against you for evil, will turn round to bring you God's favour in Jesus name. As bad as it may sound majority may not get their TRV to study but the truth also is that success sometimes isn't defined by that. Those who have been refused, don't give up. Wetin you dey find go Sokoto fit dey inside your Sokoto. Only time will tell.
More good news in the house.

Do not take sides when making peace its counter productive and fuels trouble.
I guess just like in every movie we find a villain, AugustApplicant seem to be our villain here.
A little touch of humour needed sometimes though. What a nice forum.

lillaowow:

Tired of tracking joor.... God go do am...make i relax ma muscle jare.

I think that is VFS Way of saying your documents have been collected from them by CDHC. The actual time of processing only them can tell.

spencer3705:

submited june 12
invited for medical on 31august.did med on 4th sept

Lucky you. You submitted late and did medical before resumption. Are you sure your start date wont change?

valentino81:
I dey laff at august applicant; there so many fins u don't understand about him;
1- look at his username
2- he takes fins to be personal
3- the way at which we address issue will be diffrnt from individual persons.
He is a kind of person that will want to gain from others, buh neva want to share info.
I have a fwend like that when I was in school; during the exam period, he will want to cheat from you and at the same time covering his book, not even knowing that all he has done is zero.
So, I fnk bfr he join, info is getting in and out, so, his emmergence shouldn't create any mishap.
Get me right @ august applicant; I am not against ur opinion or attitude, just trying to shed more light on individual diffrences.
@ efosa; by Gods grace, thnx for the love.
Bakorede, I miss ur disturbance!

You are asking this person for personal information and yet making gesture of him/her. Na wa for una o. Sometimes its better we mind our business and leave others with theirs. You cant achieve anything with this kind of remarks. Please stop it.

Cori_corde: Can someone please explain how I can get a bank draft to apply for a study permit?

Any GTbank near you. it will cost you around N300 so total payment will be N19800+ some change

spencer3705: @jesus 4 all

18th june aplicant,wad up wif ur status?na dis week or next o!i dey xpet ur testimony.

Spencer when did you submit and when did you do your medical?

Bakorede: as time progress wil not help any1,like me,i want 2 know dat particular amount in ur a/c whc u said u won't tel any1 cos i'm planning 2 sponsor myself.and abt d statements dat d pple u met here av nt shared all infos abt their application stuffs,i wil nt subscribe 2dat cos 4rm dis forum. Numbers,contacts,infos are even shared on a personal request even after such infos av been deposited here 4 evry1.i know 4rm dis forum,intimate friendship/relationships av been devloped and created.in Summary,share dat info now 4d gud of evry1 cos either u share it or not it's only God dat crowns ones' effort.my prayer is dat God Wil grant us all our heart desires on dis forum.AMEN!

@AlL this forum is purely civil and democratic: there is no use forcing words out of anyone who isn't willing to disclose such. Please lets leave @AugustApplicant alone.

silibaba: am in a fix, i applied for study permit since june at the CDHC and my school has commenced academic session.Do I still wait on them for the permit or ask my school to change my start date. I nid answers

I guess the mistake you made was applying in June for a September start date. Most of those who applied in March have received their TRV and have gone. The instruction is 4-6months. June to 1st week in September is not in that range. You should contact CDHC.

earthgreeners:
like say u go remember God after u get wetin u want.......yeye augustapplicant

Am surprised at your comment @Earthgreeners. See how subtle people can be. We all looked up to you. You should apologies to @AugustApplicant or remain silent

ajiantochi: Too much intelligence is killing dis world...lawyers because of a child speaking pidgin??..if U̶̲̥̅̊ re nt happy wit ur kids speaking pidgin, den take dem far away frm d programme, while dose whu speak nd appreciate it shd participate..u created dis kind of topic 4 a situation like dat? Man dat aint good.. Golden penny u guys ar on point.. Shekina..

Dont mind the over sabi Brand Focus people. they are actually speaking for themselves. Where were they when the Ariel advert showing a kid staining his uniform so as not to go to school? Where are they now with the MTN win Airplane promo. They are just being biased as I guess they are working for some competitors

lokzie: Ok, here's some more info. i just noticed the page to download all study permit forms on CDHC website was updated recently -Date Modified: 2012-01-09 (September 1 2012). see http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/nigeria/visas/forms_study-formulaires_etude.aspx?view=d so if you are yet to submit your application but downloaded the forms before September 1 2012, you may need to check you have filled the current forms.Hope someone finds this helpful

Cheers

I have looked through both and I must say that there is a lot of difference. This also gives me the impression the embassy is trying to do something about the complaints they have been getting from the Nigeria government.
Here are some of the differences I spotted.

Old. Have you previously appeared for any Canadian visas e.g Permanent Resident, Temporal Resident (Work, Visiting, Study) YES or NO
Have you ever been refused any kind of visa to travel to Canada? YES or NO
Have you ever been refused admission or being ordered to leave Canada or any other county? YES or NO
If you answered yes to any of the above please provide reasons (Type in the reasons in the space provided)


New Have you ever remained beyond the validity of your status,attended school without authorization, or worked without authorization in Canada? YES/N
Have you ever been refused any kind of visa, admission or been ordered to leave Canada or any other country? YES or NO
If you answered yes to any of the above please provide reasons (Type in the reasons in the space provided)

Now for me form IMM1294E (02-2012) is better than the new one IMM1294E (07-2012). If I hadn't submitted, I will still submit with the old because the new have categorised both those who were simply refused visa here in Nigeria and those who have been ordered to leave Canada into one group making any applicant applying to now do a lot of explanation to avoid mis-categorisation which is quite common at the embassies

Ceejay2:

im heading to University of Saskatchewan and i would be submitting my documents unfailingly next week by the grace of God.

Ok mine isnt UofS so our destinations aren't the same. All the best still.

mercylicious:

@Goodness, hw far? Has ur docs been released?
Plz send me ur contact to floxybrown_4u@yahoo.com, we need to talk offline.

Did you submit a doctored account statement? If you did, I suggest you allow things play out and avoid further entanglement. The only problem here is a likely 2yrs ban which I don't pray for.

lovesavvi: Am going for ACCA

Your submission is entering late for January so make it unfailingly this week.
