Jahwinaboy:
I stand with Trump and Israel. Only the blind and terrorists sympathizers hate Trump and Israel. So Iran can kill thousands of their citizens for protesting, channel billions into sponsoring terrorists Hamas, Hezbollah, Houtis , etc while to solve the country's water problem is difficult. Lunatics keeps cheering, Terrorists sympathizers keep cheering. Hand go soon touch una. Long live US AND ISRAEL.

He is direct opposite of what he claims

Don't let emotion remove your sense of reasoning.

Boko Haram and other terrorists ravaging Nigeria adheres to a radical, violent interpretation of Sunni Islamic ideology, specifically aligning with Salafi-Jihadism and Wahhabism. The group, which calls itself "Jama'atu Ahl as-Sunnah li-Da'awati wal-Jihad" (Group of the Sunni People for the Calling and Jihad), aims to impose a strict form of Sharia law in Nigeria

The backing of some of these Arab Countries e.g Saudi Kuwait , UAE snd others for the attack on Iran stemmed out of long time rivalry between Sunnis and Shites. Although both are Muslims, but Sunnis and Shites are direct enemies.

Now, how come the Iran Shites be sponsoring Boko Haram, ISWAP, etc whose ideologies are Sunnis?

Give yourself brain now.

I have many tribalists here writing all sorts of nonsense against the Yoruba people just because of this Sunday Igboho. Sunday Igboho is a politocal thug. Everything he achieved in his life was from working for the politicians. If you see him wearing APC cap todsy, that shouldn't suprise anybody. But dragging the Yoruba people into the matter is a foolish argument.

On Nnamdi Kanu, the politicians from the South East sold out Kanu. The violence in the SE they accused Kanu for were perpetrated by Dave Umahi , Hope Uzondima and co, and they lied to the public that IPOB was responsible. Many of the witness evidence against Kanu came from the South East. Even Governor Soludo himself openly denounce Kanu. One thing about some of these Igbo guys is that you are always silent about the complicity of your own people but look for an outsider to blame just because of your chronic hatred for the Yorubas.

When did she go for the clean-up after the rape? Did she wait for a week to go to the hospital? Typically, pregnancy won't be detected until after a week to 2 weeks of conception. If it was detected within a week of the rape, the husband might have inpregnated her before the incident.

Akpabio-led Senate of rogues

Agreed, PDP is a pick-pocketer while APC is an armed robber.

PDP. Masters of corruption.

The party where corruption wears a hat and carries a walking stick, as the elders say.

Una don find Diezani?

That one fled nearly a decade ago with our trillions.

Go and find her before talking.

Criminal party of master looters.

Hope he/she is not banned?

jesufifunmi:
Hello all, the applicant has been denied in the past and mistakenly answered No to the question "Have you ever been refused a visa or permit, denied entry to, or ordered to leave any country or territory?" This was a genuine mistake as he fully understands that IRCC has access to his application history. He misinterpreted the phrasing of the question, focusing on the latter part of it. What should we do?

Delusion!

Predator188:
Talking of extending policies that would favour particular group
One pattern of canada immigration system is that, they will close one route and open another route, maintaining immigration level,
Is it not the same liberal party that is given illegal or undocumented workers in certain occupation in greater Toronto area permanent residents, and this policies are not in immigration level plan,any policy can be implemented anytime with or without public opinion.

Canadian youths can't find a job but they only wants to work in fast food restaurant like Tim Hortons,McDonald's and gas stations nothing more,that is the only job they couldn't find..do they even work only few during summer, you can't find them In agriculture or manufacturing with high labour needs!

In the future now, the bastard may become the Nigerian President, and the same FBI will refuse to release his case file claiming that he is an FBI Asset.

Even in.the South West, Tinubu cant win two states. No sensible Yoruba will vote him again

Outside South West based on your normal tribalism.. Name one other zone Tinubu can beat Jonathan I dare you

Your comment is reasonable. I am not here to make an unnecessary braging since I wont earn a trophy here. You can't even recognise me if I meet you at the Montreal Airport. I am only here so that people can make the right and informed decision. Those they mentioned had applied before September 1. Even if you applied on August 30, you still benefit from the temporary policy.

Having a visit visa and return to Nigeria after your authorized stay as a visitor is a POSITIVE factor. Once you apply for your study permit from outside after your returned visit, Chinnok will flag you to the officer as a 'trusted applicant". You see the recent approval. The couple came to Canada on visit and they respected the condition of their stay based on Section 179(1)(b) of the IRPR. They are trusted applicants.

Then why turning a positive factor to a neutral factor with this advice they are giving to you?

bullstriker:
This information is not aimed at instilling fear, as you stated, but to educate people to make an informed decision. False information can cause irreparable damage to someone’s ambition. If you had truthfully reviewed the snapshot you posted, you would have seen that you answered “No” to all the criteria for an in-Canada application, and that was why the system asked you to apply as if you were outside Canada. A “Yes” will generate an in-Canada study permit application.

You do not quite understand the meaning of in-Canada and outside-Canada applications. In Canada, applications simply mean that an application was processed at a visa office in Canada, and a study permit is mailed to your address, just like a study permit extension. On the other hand, outside Canada applications are processed at a visa office outside Canada. In such cases, a visa is issued to the applicant to travel/flagpole, and a study permit is given upon arrival at the border/point of entry. The fact that your cousin was issued a visa and went to the border to receive the study permit confirms it was an outside Canada application (he applied with IMM 1294 if he used a gckey account). For example, while on a visit to Canada, I can apply for a study permit, just like someone residing outside Canada, and upon receiving a PPR, I must mail my passport to obtain a visa which I will use to come to Canada to receive my study permit – this is the process for study permit made outside of Canada. That someone submitted a study permit application while visiting Canada does not mean the application was processed in Canada.
For an in-Canada study permit, you must meet specific criteria; one such requirement is completing a course or program prerequisite to securing a school admission to a DLI ( all the criteria were mentioned in the snapshot you posted, but you deliberately ignored them).

You can only see the feathers. You can't see the bird. I rest my case with you guys to battle with.
Bye

orjohn24:
You arrived in Canada last year on an SOWP (Spouse Open Work Permit) with your two kids after allegedly working for FAAN for 15 years. Now you are claiming to be a Canadian citizen . This is an open forum, and such exaggerated claims are unnecessary. Nobody is claiming superiority here; we are all here to learn and educate one another.
There is no need for these bogus claims to validate your points—they make no sense and only detract from meaningful discussion.

I am a civil servant in Canada working with the CBSA. I wont divulge my identity here. The recent changes to the international student program are as a result of the abuse of the system. People like you are the ones teaching the foreign nationals on how to abuse the integrity of the immigration system. On Sept 1, 2024, Canada reverted to all the PRE-PANDEMIC policies pertaining In-Canada study permit. Those who applied before September 1, 2024 were exempted. So, if your cousin got in July 1, 2024, he might probably have applied before June 1, which fell within the frame when the pandemic measures were still in force, that does not mean that you should encourage people to do so now that the policies have changed. Canada immigration is guided by law. Section 215(1)(a-g) of the IRPR clearly explain the category of those who can apply from within Canada. By the power conferred on the Minister in Section 25(2) of the IRPA, the Ministet csn make temporary policies to vary or suspend any part of the IRPR. This what people like your cousin benefitted from. But now, the temporary policy has ended.

Well, if you are coming to Canada to follow all these ill-advice to explore the transition from visitor to study permit in which you are not eligible, good luck to you. You will meet us there.

Let me chip in this about the Nigerians on Youtube, every system no matter how sophisticated it is has some kind of loopholes. Those loopholes are deliberately left there to make the system not too rigid. But anytime Nigerians explore the loophole and they succeed, you will see them all over the internet tik tok, youtube , instagram etc. If you see the King sleeping and snoring on the royal chair, the wise thing to do is to pass and pretend that you no see anything. The wise ones here will decode my proverb.

For those citizens or permanent residents who encourage applicants to abuse the integrity of the immigration system, continue. You will meet your waterloo in the future.

Goodluck to you all.

affoncad:
This is my last response, as I don't want to continue spamming the forum. You refused to read the instructions on ircc website in detail. My cousin arrived with a visitor visa for tourism but is now a student. You can also watch another lady's video on YouTube(@EvelynOnwuka) she also arrive canada on visit visa and now a student. Thanks.

I am not an immigration consultant, get that to your head. The eligibility is clearly written there. What was the purpose of your cousin's visit visa?

affoncad:
Stop arguing blindly! My cousin got a student permit in July 2024 as a visitor visa holder and applied from within Canada. I think you should re-read the instructions and simply click "NO" to all the conditions you listed above. Another person also got approved last month. People like you can easily be misled by so-called immigration consultants, but the good thing about IRCC is that if you can read and understand, you don't need a consultant to interpret simple instructions for you.

Look the attached instruction

Copied this from the IRCC website:

Only some people can apply for a study permit from inside Canada. Do any of the situations below describe you, or the person you’re applying for? (required)
You’re currently in Canada and one of these applies:

you’re a Ukrainian national or family member of a Ukrainian national
you have a valid study or work permit
your spouse, common-law partner or parent has a valid study or work permit
you’re a minor child in primary or secondary school
you’re an exchange student or visiting student
you completed a short-term course or study program required to be accepted at a DLI
you or your spouse, common-law partner or dependent child has a temporary resident permit (TRP) valid for 6 months or more
you’re being sponsored to immigrate and you already applied for permanent residence (if you’re eligible)
you or your spouse, common-law partner or dependent child are subject to an unenforceable removal order
you’re the spouse, common-law partner or dependent child of:
an athlete on a team based in Canada
a member of the media
a member of the clergy
military personnel on duty in Canada or
an accredited foreign representative
you’re a refugee claimant in Canada or a family member of a refugee claimant in Canada

You that said it is 100% false, please bring your own fact that is true.
I am waiting.

affoncad:
100% false

Ogbeni, dont brag here. I am also a Canadian citizen. Covid 19 made Canada to suspend some rules allowing certain nationals to apply for an in-Canada study permit or work permit. Now, Canada is back to pre-pandemic rules. Nobody is creating any fear here. The person that misled those on deportation now is also a Canadian citizen like you.

Stop fear-mongering! As a Canadian citizen, I have firsthand experience with the process. I personally drove my cousin to the border to obtain his student permit after it was approved. he initially arrived in Canada on a visitor visa and successfully applied for a student visa. His application was approved, and everything went smoothly but expensive . So, let's focus on facts and avoid spreading unnecessary fear and misinformation !!
Also check this lady on youtube , she arrive canada on visit visa and now a student!!
@EvelynOnwuka

Because you're an immigration agent, lawyer, or consultant, that doesn't give you the privilege to complicate simple processes just to milk your gullible clients. I know people like you!

Respect to Indian and Jewish lawyers/immigration consultants in Canada

Yes,the rules are meant for those with genuine reasons BUT UNFORTUNATELY, SOME UNSCRUPULOUS ELEMENTS ABUSED IT. If you see the level at which many international students abused the system, you will weep. Now they hardly believe those with genuine reasons.

Predator188:
(1)The question was can the SOWP be revoked if student differs enrollment,you didn't answered the question.

Students has 150 day rules to begin studies after deffer of enrollment and must be approved by DLI.
If approved by DLI it is safer for both SOWP and study permit holder.

There can be genuine reasons for differ, it is the abusers that spoil things for the genuine ones,the obvious reasons of changes in immigration rules.

God bless you.
People should be careful with the information and advice they get from people. A family with a stidy permit that is expiring in 2026 is on their way back to Nigeria now just because somebody gave them a wrong advise on immigration. As I am writing, they are at the CBSA deportation center. For privacy issue, I wont go into details.

As per study permit from inside Canada, the only person with visitor visa who can apply from inside Canada is somebody who came to study a pre-entry course that is six month or less. If your course is less than eight months, IRCC wont give you study permit. They will issue you visit visa to study. Omce you complete that course that is a prerequisite to what you want to study, you can apply for study permit from inside Canada. That one is settled.

The other time, somebody advised the spouse of somebody who defer admission to go and work. If you follow this advice, you are on your own o. That was the trap the family I mentioned earlier fell into. Now they are on their way to Nigeria. Look, there are some illegal things some students used to do in Canada in which they overlook in the past. But in Canada of today, DO NOT TRY IT.
The Immigration Minister has said that in many occassions that not all the students presently studying in Canada will be allowed to stay. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE THEM THE ROPE THEY WILL USE TO HANG YOU.

bullstriker:
People like you discourage knowledgeable people from helping out with your baseless argument. This person needs correct information to make an informed decision and plan his future. Yet, here you are arguing over some time you have never done, don’t know how it works, and probably, don’t even know what applying from inside Canada entails. The page you posted clearly mentioned the eligibility for an inside Canada study permit application, yet you ignored it.

Study permit gives life to SOWP. If you are not actively pursuing your studies, any work done on the SOWP is illegal. Dont try it now that Canada is saying getting PR after study is no more automatic. Do not gibe them tje rope they will use to hang you

Predator188:
1. They won't revoke SOWP if the student differ, but you will need an authorised leave of absence from school to be on safer side and for pgwp.

The rule of thumb is that every temporary visa holders must buy a return ticket. Because flight tickets are valid for one year, that is why those going for study or visit that is more than one year are advised to buy one way. If your airline says your program duration can accomodate a return ticket, please buy it o. CBSA is not smiling right now. They have return so many people from the airport since this cry of "students are coming to take our jobs" started by the locals. Remember that having a visa is not a guarantee of entering Canada. CBSA has the final say.

Bobomaigida:
There is no compulsion to buy a round trip ticket, neither IRCC or CBSA requires it. The airline could be pushing this cos it helps them make more sales. It is not mandatory.

Although I don't like his garullous conduct, but this is what Trump is saying. It is senseless wasting the United State soldiers on matter that does not concern US. Trump policy is US money for US citizens. No funding of NATO with tax payers money.

With this type of reason, you risk another refusal if you reapply no matter the rewording of your SOP

resilience001:
Please help.
I just got my refusal note on GCMS. These are the reason for refusal. Can anyone help me with writing a new SOP as this looks like SOP problem.
I need urgent help.

In most cases low opening balance is a red flag. Chinook will flag it to the officer

Kelvinekpos:
Pls, i have a question regarding POF, does the opening account balance matters or i should focus more of the closing balance

I'm planning on running a statment of account for 6 month, should the required POF be maintained for the next 4-6 month??

Hope you were not banned?

sato1985:
please I need urgent advice , I was denied canadian student visa and it was stated that I didn't declare that I was refused USA visa , please what can I do to reapply

The guy is a liar. Please ignore people like this. They always want to be relevant on nairaland by posting unrealistic testimonies

justwise:
You did a paid internship and was able to save $10K in two months from it?

But where is the money you showed the IRCC that you have enough funds? People like you are the ones bastardising the system

gaeul:
Oga on campus job is unlimited..I am only against Asylum and used my story to motivate others to study and never to go to the Asylum route..All story must not be sad, all must not be bitter, menn dts why people with great sucess just say Nau God when you ask them..Cos people like you thrive so much in Negativity...its disgusting...I rest my case Mr Doubting Thomas, i cant help your unbelief but it can never ever make my story False!!! How many Nigerians can really afford studying in Canada and UK, less than 10%....Even their people cant afford it. How much can a legit banker or government worker save after food, clothing and other expenses...its survival and years of sacrifice for most people... Just discourage against Asylum, thats all...

Sorry for your situation.
To your question, once a removal order is issued against you, you are no more admissible to Canada. Your visa might have been rendered invalid

samguru:
Good day,
I was given a removal order because I couldn't not continue my education in Canada and I had serious health issues along the line.I was admitted in a public hospital for long period of time and in this period I applied for asylum but the lawyer that helped to process the application did not do a good job as my doctor was telling me,the lawyer should reach out to him for supporting documents.

When I the day for removal was almost due the doctor narrated my ordeal to a canadian(white) lawyer and the lawyer felt bad about my situation and asked the doctor to drive down to my house on the day I was scheduled to removed from canada and both of them whisked me away to the hospital for admission.
The lawyer was able to file 2 months extension for me but finally the 2 months extension elapsed and I arrived in Nigeria early this month.

My question, can I apply for PR from Nigeria or what should I do as my visa will expire in December 2025

Thats why I wrote "let me go for the extreme scenario" which is impossible. I live in Canada. I am a permanent resident. I work three jobs. I cant even save $5000 in three months talkless of a student

oluayebenz:
😂😂😂😂

504hrs in three weeks bawo.
That one na die nah.

For a student to even save 20k cad in a year is almost impossible sef

You can do upfront medical

Chidirolex
post=132257829:
Hello guys, is it advisable to have an upfront medical examination since I am staying in a different state, and returning for the test after biometrics will also require more money and time?

Please what are the pros and cons of having an upfront medical?

These are the people giving false hope to other people. Let us do the maths.I will go for the extreme senario which is very rare. There are 24 hours in a day. Let say the student work 24 hrs daily from one job to another. For three weeks, the student cant work more than 504 hours. No care job pay more than $30/hr in Canada. $30 is the highest. Pay ranges between $16 and $25.

Let us go for $30 per hr. . For three weeks, that student would work 504 × 30, which is $15,120.

Then where did he/she get the $20,000 you said the student paid after three weeks?

Annettevoke:
A student came to Canada in September 2024 and has 5 job offers in care giving jobs pay over 20 CAD after 3 weeks in Canada. there are jobs depending on the kind of job you are looking for and how smart you are.
