I only attached my i20. I just wrote that I am going to study xx program and my program starts at xx but my initial schedule date won’t allow me to meet that start date and this will thwart my career trajectory. It’s against this backdrop that I am applying for an emergency appointment to meet my admission date.

AZzoe:


Oooo thank you so much. This means alot truly.
Please aside from your i20 and your payment receipt, what supporting document did u attached when requesting via the CGI portal? And what was your convincing writeup like?
So sorry for the long questions, please...
And thank you for your kind response...🙏🏽

1. I used my earliest admission date
2. In 24hrs
3. Their response was via email
4. Yes please they did give me a closer date.

AZzoe:
Hello guys...
Good afternoon...and I trust you are doing well.

Please who has applied for expedite visa appointment and was accepted?

Please I have some questions, and will appreciate your response.

1. Was is 60days to your earliest admission date or program start date (which is also same as class start date) ?
2. How soon did they reply to your request?
3. Their response was it via email or cgi portal?
4. Did they truly give you closer interview date?

Thank you so much and I look forward to hearing from you...🙏🏽

Contrary that’s not it. I had my earliest admission date to be 18th July and program start date at 21 August but I applied for EA using my earliest admission date and it was granted in less than 24hrs.

TEMIT0PE:
No, you are not.

Your program start date is 14th August. "Earliest admission date" means the date you are allowed to enter into the US. The 60 days rule is counted from your "program start date" and in your case, this will be 14th of June.

If you apply for emergency now, your request is going to be rejected and you will not be allowed to apply for another emergency appointment with the same Visa fee payment.

Yes you do.

Keyin:
Good day. Please from my i-20 the earliest admission date is 15th of July and Program start date is 14th of August. Am i qualify to book for EA considering the 60 days clause for student to book for EA?

This is good to hear because I want to find a good date

petertunde:

Yes. You just need visa fee reference number and ds-160 application number, not necessary your submit

Thank you for your response

chibertha:
You would have used the time you are using to ask this question to try it on your portal.
If it goes through fine, if it doesn't then you wait for the document.
That is what I will do in this situation.
Life is either yes or no, nothing go spoil.

Good afternoon, please permit me to ask this again.
Please can I book for visa appointment without having my I-20?
Your kind response will be heavily appreciated

Co-ask

Rachy12345:

Me:Good morning

VO: Let's start with your study plan
Where are you going
Me: I am going to south Dakota state university for Masters in English and Literature and I will be focusing on Feminst and gender Literature. It is for 24 months and it is a 36hours Credit course in which I will be taking courses like British literature, creative writing and professional editing. This courses will help me acquire the skills I need to be a creative Writer.

VO just dey type and nodding head

Ever since then I have been working as a technical writer and my duties include I write stories, blog post and articles relating to women in the work place, I also volunteer as an English and Literature teacher as it on My ds160. I earn 250,000 monthly. Vo was listening with rapt attention.

VO : What your post study plan
Me : My company is currently expanding it's operations across Africa country upon the completion of my studies I will be taking the role of a senior Technical write alongside I will be establishing my own writing center and also I will be collaborating with other publishers so as to create a safe space for women in Nigeria

VO : How did you get your GTA

Me: I submitted a very competitive application. I took a duolingo test where i scored 135, I wrote an essay on social inclusion of women in Nigeria using Chimamanda Adiche and I had an interview with two professors from my department. VO was just looking at me.

How many Schools did you apply to : I said three and all gave me admission but I chose South Dakota state university because of its interdisciplinary approach to literature and robust Curriculum , I won't just be taking literature but I will also be taking creative writing, professional editing courses and this course will help me the expertise that I need to become a Writer (I actually applied to 10 Schools, three rejections, two waitlisted me. I got three funded offers, awaiting decision from others)

Vo : Where do you work again

Me : My dad will be covering my deficit and he makes an annual income of 40million. He is a Comercial farmer. He has two acres of lands that he uses for fish farming and live stock farming '. He has been supportive and he was even the one who encouraged me to apply.
VO just dey look me and nodding head.

Then she picked the white paper and said Your visa will be ready in one week.

Thank you so much MOCK WITH GOD'S GRACE GROUP for the support and frequent mock sessions you guys are the best, Ella I can't thank you less,Nairaland people , Moshkom, Tboy I appreciate you all. Ayomide, thank you so much for the 1min date search group. Tkay, thank you so much for your encouragement.
Guys, I was scared because I paid my sevis fee last week and it has not reflected. I found favor and I am grateful. See you all at top. Be confident, shout if you need to. Thank you all

I don’t know his program and I highly doubt we are going for the same program. Thank you.

When they request for a writing sample they just want to know your research skills. I know a colleague with about 50 publications but they told him to submit only an article in which he was sole author. In my case they told me to submit only the research methods chapter of my thesis and not the whole work.

Thesis can be harder than an article because you can derive numerous articles from a thesis so it’s not as soft as you think.

Yes being unique should be goal and there myriad ways to achieve that even without publication.

infosoftlife:


I believe you both have the same profile and going for the same program.
CONGRATULATIONS, by the way.
Just because you were able to have this funding (I don't know the program you applied for) doesn't construe that the competition is the same in all departments.

FYI: A publication has fewer pages than 25,000 dissertations. Imagine a Prof. reading through this of over 100 applicants

Let's encourage people to take the harder way because it pays, and there are agents out there that can help you do this publication by including their names in it.

PSI: I am not saying getting funding without a PUBLICATION is impossible... Making your profile stand out is the GOAL.

Do understand his assertion to a point. For the writing sample, your masters thesis would suffice and I used that to gain 3 admissions all with funding. I have also been able to secure a research assistantship to assist a research institute with their research for my PhD but I have no publication.

infosoftlife:


You must understand the different types of funding and their requirements (GA, TA, RA).

If you want a Research Assistantship to assist Profs with their research works, the majority of them usually request to see a writing sample.

For someone going for Ph.D while, won't he/she have at least a publication?

Some schools in Nigeria even mandates MSc student to have a publication before the final defense of their dissertation.

Thank you. I applied in December and got admission in Jan. I got the email about the departmental scholarship yesterday. Its a Phd admission.

JESUSSON1:
Congrats for the full funded program. I also applied to this University too. when did u apply?, and when did u get admission?

Oh I have accepted it in good faith. The University of Saskatoon just comforted me with a fully funded admission so we move lol

enemerci:


The word "sadly" explains it all.
He got a refusal which he is taking in good faith and he is ready to push on

I wish you all the best

Itua123:
so sorry, I am still waiting for admission letter from Ucalgary. I applied for Msc in mechanical engineering since September 22 and till date no response from them.

I mean I was refused admission and I got the update in my portal yesterday. It was a PhD program though

Itua123:
please what do you mean?

Love letter in this instance means I was rejected. I applied for PhD in Educational Research tho

Funkia:
sorry i don't get you.you got the admission you should be happy.

I did but sadly, I just got a love letter from them

Funkia:
Pls who applied to ucalgary fall 2023 intake?.

I don't think they request for a tuition deposit because I have my LOA and nothing of that sort was requested

Ojabo123:
. What about university of saskachewan pls

I have got admission and they are not requesting anything

enemerci:


Hello did you apply to university of saskatchewan. I also applied there awaiting thier response.

From wht i garhered from youtube they request for a tuition deposit of 1000CAD

I have replied your mail

jnyuwa02:


Okay, but preferable to ask here so all can benefit if its not confidential question. That said, just replied your October 2017 pm.

Jeremy I have sent you a mail, kindly reply. Thanks

jnyuwa02:


Don't submit too heavy SOA that makes it incredible. Almost all the guys submitting statement of accounts reading 148 million balance for example, I noticed have been consistently getting denied. If you are a sponsored or self sponsoring student, Submit a reasonable SOA that doesn't make you the object of suspicion by a VO. By reasonable I mean 5million to 50 million. Don't create unnecessary suspicion for yourself by submitting a statement of account most people in their lifetimes have not seen.

Please i have sent you a pm, kindly reply. Thanks

Themechanic:


Send a mail to lagos.immigration.gc.ca and use urgent as your subject.
State your details nd attach your ticket photo it might work.

Its better if you now pay the rest.

LifeIsGuhd:

Full tuition is 14k+, i paid 7k+
Sponsor insist I get my visa before he would pay the rest.

How much is your full tuition? I think its better you pay the rest of the tuition fee

LifeIsGuhd:


Yeah, I will definitely refire...
I paid half of the tuition though.

I would work on having my living cost in dollars paid into a dom account.

Thanks

Email the program's Administrator or coordinator and he or she will show you how to start the process of deferring. If they need you to write a letter, they will tell you who to address to and why it has become necessary to defer the program.

Mission2prosper:
please, i need an answer urgently before 10 am tomorrow my uncle was denied visa recently and he has already paid his school fees how should a tell the school? If he is to ask for his admission to be deferred or postponed(abeg i nor sabi the oyibo), how should the letter to the school look like I mean the format?


He plans to reapply for the visa as soon as possible. Please help i am supposed to help him compose the letter.

Thanks.
,

Sorry about your delay. About your passport, if you do not go for it anytime soon, vfs global will send it back to the Canadian embassy and i dont think they work on weekends too.

OriEyeLe:
Good morning house, I'm very very busy at work recently that my boss no gree give me chance, I was delayed novt16 and planning to reapply after I get my gcmnotes say December 16th-26th, i hope nothing will happen to my passport till February ending because I'm planning to take a week off that time to collect my passport and submit another application. I wish they work weekends really. Thanks in advance

Alantobie:


I answered No

Please how did you answer "Have you previously applied to enter or remain in Canada"?

Alantobie:
Hey Guys my visa has been approved. It’s been God. I got delayed in August for insufficient funds and when I ordered my gcms note, it said lump sum deposit occurred. So after asking the gurus and going through previous posts for my situation, I decided to pay a year fee, open a domiciliary account and transfer my living expenses in it. I also added a detailed sponsorship letter and a letter of explanation to show changes made to my application.
