This confirms my suspicion. The last time I did IELTS in Nigeria I had 7 but got it changed to 8 when I contested the result. I heard that contested result are reviewed in the UK - dont't know if this is true. Second one was by a white guy outside Nigeria ..got 8 again

did you contest everything please?

What if an applicant lied about denial on their application, can the applicant send a web form stating the truth about the denial? Or the applicant should just let the applicant be. Please we need your suggestions

Send webforms fast and explain with a letter of Explanation. Don't play with 5yrs Ban

Winnerpoks:



What does information sharing mean?

Your details will be shared with top 3 Countries, i think. UK, US and Australia to find out if u didn't lie about any visa denials or something.

Been a month I ordered for both CBSA & GCMS notes separately from thegcmsonline.com. I have not gotten any. I tot they said CBSA notes comes out faster �‍♂️.
One month now I never see anything. Na wa oo

Just want to know my application progress. Eligibility started since November 29th.

So I finally got CBSA notes yesterday. Nothing concrete. Please someone should help interprete what I attached. Summary is also below:

Eligibility: Recomend Interview
Criminality: Passed
Other Req: Not Started
Information Sharing: Complete
Medicals: Passed
Application Assignment due date: 30/12/2022

I think as a suggestion before ordering for CBSA or GCMS wait till its passed processing time of 9weeks. I ordered mine after 5 weeks mayb that's why it's not yet detailed even tou medicals was passed and eligibility has started before I ordered.

Bobomaigida:


You have to make allowance for the yuletide holidays, I am sure you will get the CBSA notes within the next one week. All the best

Okay, thank you

Hello great minds.
I need advice on my case. I submitted my study permit on May 6th 2022. Medical passed Oct 17th. Am yet to get info from Irrc.ca. when I did sent enquiries, I got replies that so many back log that I should be patience. However, I have being attending classes on line , not easy because the classes start by 1am to 6am 4 days a week. It been challenging impacting health. The school have given dead line of Feb 2023 to submitted my study permit and join class room. How can I fast track this situation, I have paid more that half of my tuition and have not touch my account balance declare because of no visa yet. Please any advice will be helpful for me. Congratulations to those who have gotten PPR.

Mails and webforms pls..get in touch with bullstriker as he stated.
Goodluck

mrprolifik:


The reason why I gave you that advice is because , your case seems to be similar to that of my cousin. He is self sponsored . Below is how his story went.
First application:
I. Submitted study permit application by paying the minimum tuition deposit.
II. Showed the rest of the tuition + money for upkeep for a year in his bank account. It's a 1 year program.
III. Added copies of his tax records and salary earned for the pass 3years till the last month prior to his application submission.
IV. Added documents showing ownership of car, and also employment letter.
After 4 months of waiting , his study permit application was refused . Mainly because he couldn't explain properly to convince the visa officer how the program he intended to study related with his job and the visa officer wasn't conviced of his home ties.

After the rejection letter he submitted another application within a week of the refusal with all the same documents as before and also included a well written 4 page letter of explanation . His home ties were his sibling , parents and his job. After 3 months he got a message from IRCC to submit a proof of payment of 1year complete tuition within a month of getting that mail. He did and after 2weeks he got his PPR.

To cut long story short. If you are established personally, you should pay one year full tuition to show commitment.

Adeoti2:
Today is the 7th day I got bvl letter from Ottawa and up till now nothing yet, I have sent series of mail and webform no response I have contacted my agent, he also just suggested we should keep sending mail and webform I am officially drained mentally and emotionally, this is really unfair after medical request and all just for bvl to drop and no decision. Please those that were in the same situation I haven't gotten any update from you guys which makes me more worried. Has anyone in my shoes gotten any response from IRCC by now?

Continue mails and webforms..all is well

Amadioha02:

DOCUMENTS UPLOADED (other than IMM forms)
For the various sections where we are required to upload documents on the IRCC portal (e.g. LOA, Marriage License), I started with an Introduction, followed by Table of Contents.
The Table of Contents have hyperlinks to the respective documents attached. I also included hyperlinks to take the VO from the attached documents back to the Table of Contents.

Please note, some of the documents I attached are unnecessary e.g. COVID-19 vaccination card.

LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE
• Letter of Acceptance.
• IELTS result.
• Academic and Professional certificates.
• Academic Transcript.
• WES evaluation report.
• NYSC certificate.
• Evidence of Previous investments which had been liquidated (Education Plan for me and the kids, Shares that have been sold, Monthly Savings Plan with an Insurance Company, Investments with some Investment Firms). I stated that the proceeds were invested in other ventures and form a bedrock of funds being used for my studies in Canada.

PASSPORT
• Bio-data page of International Passport
• Affidavit (in lieu of birth certificate)
• Drivers' license.
• NIN slip.
• Updated CV (Nigerian style).
• Staff ID Card.
• Letter of Introduction from my employer.
• Study leave approval from my employer.
• Introduction letter from my local Church.
• Letter of Ordination from my Church.

MARRIAGE LICENSE/CERTIFICATE
• Marriage Certificates (Church and Court).
• Name change publication for spouse.
• Birth certificates for the kids.
• Over 50 pictures (during courtship, during wedding, during the christening of our kids, pictures with spouse at a volunteering event, family photographs). I cropped the pictures and put an average of 3 pictures on each page. Also, I sequenced the pictures such that they tell our family story from inception.

CLIENT INFORMATION
Here, I included a background that the property owned by my spouse would be included under her application for OWP. Then, included a Table of contents and attached the following documents, which could not be added in other sections due to file size constraint.
• Land Documents (Receipts, Sales Contract, Deed of Assignment, Survey, Advert showing an increase in the price of the land)
• Documents for 2 cars.
• Mum's International passport. (I showed her visa page and some travel stamps, since me I no get travel history).
• Affidavit/Birth certificates for some of my siblings.
• CSCS Statements for Stock/shares inherited from my late dad who died over 20 years ago. (The shares are still in my dad’s name. I explained that my family intends to obtain a Letter of Administration and these shares will be captured therein).
• My picture with my CEO and an EXCO member at an official outing.
• Training Certificates.

PROOF OF MEANS OF FINANCIAL SUPPORT
• SOP (9 pages). I tried to reduce it but my story long.
• Documents relating to the Payment of 50% initial deposit ($17,900 CAD).
• Documents relating to my current employment (employment letter, confirmation, promotion and 4 months’ Pay slips).
• Evidence of Available/Dedicated Fund:

I provided Explanatory Notes on 3 bank accounts.
1. My salary account (where I deposited our naira POF)
2. My USD account (where we deposited our dollar POF)
3. My spouse’s salary account (Here, I just stated that this is her salary account).

Under each of the account, I explained salient points such as lump sums that I wanted to VO to be aware of and included relevant support documents e.g. bonus letter from my employer.
For my naira account and my wife’s salary account, I provided bank statements for exactly 4 months but for the USD account, I provided statement for 1 year because it was just a 2-page document and I wanted to convince the VO that the account was legit even though I had only a few transactions on it.

Asides these, I included an addendum account which belongs to my spouse.
We created and liquidated several Fixed Deposit investments in that account and sizable part of our POF came from this addendum account.
Asides the bank Reference letter, I also included the account statement because I felt it would better convince the VO. The account had a rather unusually high transaction volume in 4 months and a balance of just N500k.
I carefully explained the meaning of some terminologies used on the account statement too e.g. FD booking.

• Letter of Introduction from my Pension Fund Administrator.
• Investment Certificate and account statement from an investment company for an existing investment (the letter clearly states that my wife and I have an unrestricted access to the funds).
• Deed of Partition and evidence of rental income on the property inherited from my late date


I included several hyperlinks on my SOP, my wife’s SOP and the cover letters for the kids. For instance, where I mentioned key words such as “Institute of Chartered Accountants”, Pension Reforms Act, 2014 etc., I ensured that they were modified to be hyperlinks, which would take the VO to the respective websites. I did this so it is easy for the VO for confirm the various terminologies/claims/entities independently.

My spouse and I have no travel history. Therefore, I stated in my SOP that we have been saving consciously towards my studies overseas, so we denied ourselves several luxuries such as travelling on vacations.

Just to mention, asides the funds that were available in bank and investment accounts, I stated that I would be saving specific amount towards my masters program from my subsequent salaries and 13th month allowance.
And that in the period, my family will depend on my wife’s salary and the balance from my own salary (I had previously established the fact that my wife and I save and invest together. Moreover, all my salary and allowances go straight into her account based on my bank statement history).

Congratulations school mate. Solid application! We have a group on Telegram if you are interested in joining you can DM.

gaeul:
Please do you know if they still give the yellow slip for biometrics...

They don't give yellow slip anymore. It's one small white slip that contains your information
They staple it on one of the coloured photocopy of your international passport you took there and give it to you.
