Let's also tell Asekun his meeting had yielded nothing. It's getting worse.

Good day my fellow NL people.

The plan expression of our opinion and prospective grievances & delay which 98% of we study permit hopefuls are currently experiencing is valid. Yes Indian did that last year and it yielded desirable result.

However, we've got to understand that the Indians were well coordinated and stood by each other, in light of this, I personally want us to seek guidance on how best to execute this.

If we can reach out to @olufemiloye in our numbers and/or maybe @Tundefash with some few others to give us insight on how we can do this and even get them on our side to channel our entreaties appropriately without breaking any protocols and laid down rules.

However, I see no reason to go open a new account, if this is about your future and career, then we need to stand tall, firm and resolute in face of adversaries & delay VO.

IMO

Boss, do it. Please contact those people abeg. Time no odia

See below my own write up. We could get many others to make a comprehensive one. Den we can decide when and how to publish it on Twitter.


"Hello,
I hope this reaches you well. With careful writing, wish to thank the humble Nation Canada for giving us some privilege to become prospective and full students of Canada schools as this is really bringing a synergy between the two countries(Nigeria and Canada). The economy of Canada has really Become fast growing and competing with other great nations of the world. That been said, we have now noticed quite delays we applicants are facing to acquire a study permit into Canada. Comparing our processing time with other countries, it is really disheartening that Canada study applications from Nigeria are 1 month old, two months and some going to 6month before we get replies. We recently heard about the NSE route, but only few who got selected could get a decision within 2months as more than the said 20days. The rate at which students now defer admissions is so obvious due to the delay. Most people have made their plans on the month or time they expected/wish to return home after study to impact lives, and to develop the growing society and help fight economic fall. But the long process have made a lot to shift or extend visions and goals.
Recently, we see other applications from other countries getting replies in 20days or even less than that.
I believe international students are part of the growth of Canada so we wish the authorities reconsider our processing time.
Thanks and God bless you"

Wow. This is great. Abeg you fit exaggerate small?. Like its easier for a camel to pass through the hole of needle than getting response after 4 months of complete application .



Abeg start the time we get response with four months.



Whereas India with higher population gets response within weeks to the extent someone get decision 4 times in less than 3 months.




Abeg reconstruct my bad English.

I'm totally in support of this. I have been practically unable to make major decisions since I submitted my application since Jan. 4months are gone already. We shouldn't be at their mercy I beg! Protest shouldn't necessarily have to be physical to start with, we can start on Twitter.

Thanks

Yes, yes. Nah Twitter we dey target.


Kilode. 4 months. This people no dey fear.



The way out now is how to do it.


We create a post and we retweet or we do copy and paste. And mention them all on the pages....


Trust me, this people will get serious if we give them heat in two weeks...

Baggiomarrio:
Please guys is there anything we can do about the delays, maybe a place we can cry to ... they have to feel hit just the way we are feeling it.. if they don’t want to respond to some applications it is better said than keeping the people waiting for months , how would you keep some one waiting for seven months . That the highest form of reluctant ness in the way dey handle Nigerians... abeg o we have to do something.even if is to cry on Twitter, Instagram any were . We just have to do something.

Indian did this last year. Protested everywhere, online, vfs and embassy.



They did it and they are reaping it now.


Maybe we start our protest from Asekun. The Nigerian ambassador to Canada,

Nairobi visa office.


Ircc ottawa

Canadian Ambassador to Nigeria.

Marco Mendicino
Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship .


It's getting out of hands. When those Indians were throwing tantrums last year, I was thinking they were killing their chances, never knew the oppression in this country was actually affecting my thinking and reasoning faculty.


They are reaping it now my people.


I am not good with social media, especially twitter.


Someone more knowledgeable should compose and organise how we protest this long wait. We will continue on daily basis till there's a change.


Please don't ignore . It will work.

Someone was just given 5 years ban cos of chargeback.


Please pay your application fees yourself.


If you can't open Dorm account cos of reference.

1. Open Visa USD prepaid card with access bank.

2. Open Visa gold prepaid card with First bank.


It takes about 3-5 business days to get this card after application.

Deposit your USD into it and make your payment.


If one week is too long too wait then 5 years ban with damaged reputation will be shorter.

Think twice ...

Naughtyvirgin:
I need insights from gurus or anyone with knowledgeable experience.

I'm a graduate of biochemistry 2016 though with a lower grade (3rd class). I intend applying to Canadian schools but I have Nursing in mind.. I tried checking online with a few schools and noticed their requirements were quite high. Although, I came across a few post on some other threads were someone mentioned one could take pre-requisites and then do a 2 year program in nursing, I really don't know how true that is.
I'd love to know if it's possible to switch from biochemistry to Nursing, bearing it in mind that I haven't worked with my degree since I graduated in 2016 but I've been working as a female hairstylist.

Anyone with an idea of how to go about this should kindly share his/her view.. I await an honest response. Thanks

We are in same shoe, but I done go for business post graduate diploma.

BaaleOfOntario:
We February applicant for september 2021 intake, should we request for our gcms note or it's too early to request for it?

Oloye, you done late self.... Apply ASAP.

kelvine95:
Hey guys!!! I got medical request. I applied Feb 10th, and my gcms note came on the 20th of April, with a lot of bad vibes... Thank God I didn’t give up... I kindly sent web form to address everything that the pre assessment officer raised, which were already addressed though.

Anyway, guys, how can I go about this medical examination? I was given just 30 days, and I am entirely clueless.

Congratulations in Advance. Kelvin, a whole you never do medicals since October.


Alaye go Qlife abi iom. I no sabi how them dey book appointment now, but nah via email I do am last November with Qlife.

NwanyiOkpa:
It has finally ended in praise for me. God bless Frankrobbn, Justmellow, and the many others that have been giving me hope and answering all my plenty of questions. Note that I used an agent or my application because i was too busy with work to continually study the tips on this thread and apply them. I am a second-time applicant.

Timeline:
January 20th: Medical done
January 27th: Application submitted with all NSE requirements- Sponsor's 1-year Mybankstatement of about 11million, IELTS result with 7.5 band, and Medical result.
February 20th
February 26th: Second ghost update
March 4th: Third ghost update
March 9th: Fourth ghost update
May 4th: PPR and correspondence letter


Reason for the first refusal: They said that my finance wasn't sufficient even after i submitted an account statement of 12million and paid my first-semester tuition.

How i tackled the refusal: I paid the full tuition for the first year, provided the sponsor's account statement of 11million and i also made a notarised affidavit of sponsorship signed by my sponsor. I did not use a notarised affidavit of sponsorship in my first application but i used an affidavit from the high court. A friend advised me to use a notary lawyer for my affidavit and so far, everyone that i know that used a notary lawyer was approved. Notarised documents are recognized worldwide.


Documents submitted:
All IMM forms
Tuition payment receipt CAD$21,000
notarised affidavit of sponsorship
notarised affidavit of good behavior
police report
IELTS result
medical slip
letter of explanation
passport photograph
data page of passport
sponsor's birth certificate (sponsor is my brother)
CAC document for my business
Employment letter
Recommendation letter

NOTE: I used an agent for my application. There are a few agents that knows what they are doing. My agent did not hold back my login details like other complained about.

I got admitted into about 7 schools in the USA also but I decided to go to Canada for reasons best known to me.

God wey do am for me go do am for una.

I am so excited. As i dey type sef, my fingers dey shake. Immediately i logged in and saw that my application has been updated i was like; "these people with their ghost updates again" before i clicked on the application and saw my correspondence letter and PPR. I immediately ran and woke my dad from sleep to break the good news to him. He has always been supportive.

Congrats. Memorial accept this visitor at last.

So happy for you. I done almost click report before I remember say nah quote I supposed click. Congratulations once again.

totee1999:
Hello everyone, I just received gcms note for my application which was submitted on the 31st of January. Though I was denied last year and the same reasons for the denial (which I addressed to the best of my ability) are what is reflecting on my GCMS notes now in the preassessment part. So I would like to know if the preassessment notes are for this application or the previous one. And if it's for my current application, is there a way to address the concerns before I receive the final decision?

Contact @oyinbo4real under the canopy of her hubby this night. She's a pro in this. Bombard her DM. Some people get her mail , make una mix chemical together send am as webforms and mails shapally.

Sleekcee:
Truth is I have never seen him before. He resides in Canada but is a Nigerian and visits Nigeria often for his biz. He said they have an office in Lagos and Abuja. I have spoken to 2 diff ppl from their Lagos office once a long time ago but I don't knw them physically . A friend in Manitoba introduced me to him and she ended up not using him for her sister's application after introducing me to him. I did not sign any agreement with him either. Was a huge mistake on my part.

Did you pay him that much?.


Maybe you can just tell him to hand it over to you and that you are not concerned about the money again. If its what you can let go though.

taminat:
It is clear that this is a rogue agent and not an RCIC. His style of intimidation and threat is juvenile and you shouldn’t be bothered about the unintelligent responses and reaction. Can you request for gcms notes? There is a package that provides you with the notes and copies of all the documents submitted during application. This is very important and it will provide clarity on the entirety of your application. Did you sign any agreement? Do you have formal correspondence? If the gcms notes shows any discrepancy on his part, i believe that you can file a report against him.

I have deferred admission in the past and i received a new admission letter to that effect and correspondence from the school as well. What is his proof of deferral if he is unwilling to provide any evidence? Email the school directly for a real time status on your admission. You should get some information. Provide the ielts result, while waiting for the gcms and feedback from your school. Also consider more experienced advise from others. It will end in praise.

How much did this cost you. Most immigration lawyers charge $3,000 - $3,500 .


Maybe this RCIC might be cheaper but immigration lawyers preaches against them.... Abeg enlighten me.

Sleekcee:
Good morning great minds. Please I need ur input here. I applied on September 2nd 2020, biometrics 12th September. NSE request Dec 16th, submitted on the 29th jan and no further update. I decided to do upfront medical on April 12th and gave my agent to submit on 14th April. We are in May and I have asked him to check if it has been updated to pass and he said not yet that it takes 28 days to get a response se from IRCC if urgent. I have deferred my admission from January to May and now I asked him to defer from May to September. I got a mail from the sch two weeks ago saying they got my request and will let me knw when a decision has been made. Since then no further info. Thats Fanshawe college. I have asked my agent for my new admission letter since he said he has deferred and this is his response "They said they will only issue new letter if the embassy request for it". Please do i need embassy to get my admission letter when I defer?
Now these are my issues: firstly I noticed my application number changed. The application number on my biometrics letter was diff from the NSE letter. I noticed it this year and asked questions and they gave me 4 diff answers. First they said IRCC asked them to apply thru NSE, another of his colleague said wen I did biometrics they did not get a response from ircc on time and they sent them an email and wen IRCC responded my application number was updated, he also said he forgot to upload mybank statement and cancelled to reapply and add it instead of the paper statement and later the agent said he did paper application in September and was asked to link it to online application so he did it in September 29th and my application number changed. Please were paper applications accepted in September when there was lockdown, and does app number change wen u link paper to online Plenty? Please let me know. Plenty stories but all I know is they reapplied on September 29th without telling me, my email was not used so I don't get mails, I don't have my password so I can't check anything. Also wen he submitted my application I drafted an sop and gave them to go thru and edit, they refused to show me the final document so I don't even knw what was submitted. I am just tired of everything. He said its against their policy to show u your own sop.
Next I have been thinking about is I have an EE profile and I told them before applying for this but we did not use same UCI. I don't knw if its okay or if diff UCI is okay since its a diff application.
I have ordered for my gcms notes as advised and I put my personal email. Please this is 32 days no response from caips gcms. I hope they did not send it to the email registered in my application even when I wrote my own email cos I don't even knw the mail they used to apply for me. For sometime agent stopped talking to me, said I was making troubles cos I sent them mail asking questions wen in doubt. He even mentioned he was going to report me to IRCC to ban me for 10yrs cos of the tune of my mail to them and I told him its not possible to be banned for conversation between u and your agent. Please the story is long but what can I do now? Can I send webform wen its not my email that was used to apply? I have sent mails to diff IRCC email addresses and got the same generic response of still under active processing. I don't even knw what eligibility review is cos I can't see my profile. The agent gave me my login details the first day I noticed the change in application number for me to see I had an active profile but the next time I tried to log in after 2 weeks I tried twice and was locked for 24hrs cos they said I put in wrong login details which means he changed it. He has refused to give me d details again saying its against their policy meanwhile I am not owing him a dime. Even when he gave me he said he signed agreement with IRCC that i should not be logging in too often. That u only log in wen there is an update. He kept saying ridiculous things like he is talking to a a baby. Even wen I try to argue he will insist he is right that if I log in wen they are trying to do an update it wil affect it so ircc said don't log in anyhow until they ask u to. And its same agent I used to get admission too. Please what is the solution and what are my chances? Even my own NSE letter has been different from what I've been seeing here. Mine specifically said I needed ielts and failure to submit before the deadline they wil assume I am no longer interested and proceed with denial not even option of normal processing route. I asked him why mine had a totally diff clause and he picked offence. My Application is now 8months no response. I need your inputs please �

Seriously , this agent wan spoil your career . You kon still dey speak English?. Bros , enter his office as Jagaban on Tuesday, collect all your details. Secret questions and answers. Change all immediately in his office.


Collect your files on their system, you will see and know what they wrote in your SOP and documents submitted.


You dey do jeje cos uno sabi the gravity of this.


Nah person just received procedural fairness letter up there. Who knows wetin agent submitted. If the werrey still dey disguise (strong head) . Arrest and accuse him of fraud and forgery that can affect your traveling and records negatively.

Businesstools:
Good evening, guys.

Has anyone been able to access the IRCC website today? I don't know what is happening. It keeps taking me around.

Use another browser.

Ichabodcrane:
School will resume September 13th, if I start study visa application now, will I be able to get the Visa before 13th of September?

Now is the best time. On or before August 6. You should get a response according to them.


But you need to apply on or before May 15.

mankind5050:

111Doris:
I applied in October,got NSE request in November ending but I didn’t go for it
This April they requested for it again so I had to send MBS to them with an explanation letter, but I was worried cos of the IELTS so I had to write it quickly,my result just came in and I got 5.5

My question now is that the deadline for submission of the NSE has passed,should I still send it like that or request for remark so I might reach 6.0
But the second letter they sent to me didn’t specify the band I ought to have in my IELTS,just asked me to provide MBS and IELTS so they can reach a final decision in my application

I need advice on what to do please

I think the only thing needed is your MBS .


If you have 5.5 in only one and overall band score is 6.0. I will say you should submit it. Please don't get frustrated cos of your score, I have been there.


You can also use Google and see testimonies of Indians who got less than 6.0 in one of the tests and they got ppr .


The above nah my opinion, I no be expert and me self dey wait ppr.

Anon123:
Please what level of program did you apply for PGD or diploma

Post-degree diploma.

mankind5050:
This agent DK23477 is mean. He assessed my application as well

Abi Edo mistake for this one?.

UpcomingCanadia:
[img][/img] I'm a ghost reader here and I've been following this thread for a while now... please I plan to reapply what should I do now to address the VO's issue.
I applied through an agent and he said the reasons are baseless that I should reapply...it's for a bachelor's degree at Cape Breton island I'm 18 years old. Thanks

Get your GCMS before re-applying . You still have age on your side and you will get it next time. When did you apply. Application date.

Telex charges if they sent exact fee.

Winner0718:
