milkytins:
Pls kindly help me to analyse this case note.
I applied for M.Sc Data Science at TRU but already have B.Sc., M.Sc., and PhD in Computer (OAU). Also note that the officer didn't mention family ties as part of refusal cos I added my family to my application with enough POF.

Chocs:
Sometimes it takes a while to be updated in the GC account.

Hello Legacyedition
The note might not have much information since your application is just 2 weeks old. You might want to wait a bit before applying for it.

But if you insist, you can go ahead as you’re allowed to apply for gcms as many times as you want.

Best wishes

silvamania:
Same thing here but they haven’t started eligibility review yet. Have they started same on your application

olasubomy:
Yes, i believe you can reschedule to an earlier date if you please, i recheduled mine to an earlier date just to do it once and for all.

Tonyodg2:
it’s not strictly by appointment!!

Lekiboboe:
That's an experience of a member of this thread

V.I is not far to the place though

It all depends on your timing, jz make sure u get there 20 Minutes before your Appointed Time

2) I can only tell if its from the Mainland u are coming from, e.g Ikeja, Iyana-ipaja

From Ikeja or Iyana Ipaja, Enter bus going to Obalende - CMS , from there to ajah. Drop at Lekki third roundabout. Walk in or take shuttle to VFS GLOBAL opposite treasure garden estate

But in ur case, U are Mobile,
so your route might likely be quite different, one of my friend who went there said he used Google Maps (Voice) to locate the place

Sharonyeah:
Thank you all for your wonderful responses.

@Lekiboboe, I really appreciate the extensive explanation given, I am grateful.

I will use the suggestions given and trust God to help me.

Lastly, It just occurred to me that I have HND/HNC in UK as well before getting my BSC degree, does it make sense to keep quiet on the BSC and use my HND as my highest qualification while I put up a strong point why Advanced Diploma course?

The only concern in doing that is "what if they eventually find out since Canada and UK share a lot of information?" Moreso, I remember I have done my ECA while thinking of going through express entry.

I am just at my low end right now. I am confused.

Lekiboboe:
No,

U will upload the Certificate and those other pages having your Finger prints & other information

and by the way don't be too bothered about the number of Pages, what u should be bothered about is the 4.00 MB / 4.09 MB file upload limit

Hello Legacyedition

I know of an applicant that uploaded just the certificate and got his visa. I don’t know if there’s any rule regarding that.

Best wishes

Legacyedition:

Hello Legacyedition

You do not need to write your name if you you’re applying online. When you are about to submit your application, you’ll give a signature to cover for all the required spaces.

All the best

Lekiboboe:
U are welcome,

Really,

I can't really remember ..

Seems nothing will be written there, I think its only the date beside the Signature Field that will be there.....

Are u using the latest version of ACROBAT READER DC app on your laptop?

Lekiboboe:
The document u uploaded (client info) probably is more than the 4MB size or its not accepted , so it is seeking you to Update it with a New FILE.

but sequel to ur initial question about where Home ties docs. will go to which I answered that its the CLIENT INFORMATION, I will assume u want to re-upload ur CLIENT INFORMATION with alrdy merged & UPDATED docs.

The above screen shows u av already Uploaded a Document, so click on REMOVE DOCUMENT and delete the already Uploaded document, then upload a new document that is not more than 4.00/4.09MB in size

Lekiboboe:
U are welcome Chief

Lekiboboe:
Home Ties docs. are meant to be merged with other Documents u will be uploading under CLIENT INFORMATION.
Home ties docs. are SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS
Make sure all ur documents are in PDF format

Visit the link below on how to do that

Hello ayyoshert

Sorry to hear about your refusal.

First thing you should do is to order your gcms notes. The reasons you were given in your refusal letter is generic. To see the specific cause of your rejection, you need to order your GCMS notes. To do that, just google “GCMS notes sites” and you’ll see several websites you can order it from. It costs between $15-$20 and can take up to 35 days to be ready. Please order it immediately. From the notes you’ll see the visa officer’s concerns and you’ll be able to address it before replying if you decide to reapply.

For your study permit application, you should show your tuition for the first year plus at least 10,000 cad for your living expense
For the people accompanying you, you need 4,000 cad for the first and 3,000 cad for every additional person, so for your wife and son you need 7,000 cad

This brings what you need to show for living expenses to 17,000 cad (approximately 5 million) plus Your first year tuition.

Also note that since you’re self sponsored the visa office will check for prospects on how you’ll pay your tuition for the subsequent years (if the program is more than one year) So you need to show a lot of money.

Was there any unexplained lump/huge sum deposit into the account in the time frame of the statement you submitted? That’s another reason for rejection on financial grounds.

I’ll advice you build your account up a lot more.

As for purpose of visit, it could be that your statement of purpose/letter of explanation was not very convincing or it could be that the course you’re going for isn’t showing a career/academic progression.

For the house to be able to advise you properly, you can share what you studied previously and the level (eg bsc, HND) and the course you’re going for now and the level. Also share what area your current employment is in. Usually your proposed study should align with your previous study or employment.
Please also share the length of the course you applied for in Canada and the tuition fee.

As for family ties, you applied with your whole family. They think you won’t be coming back. You can tackle that by reapplying without them, and bringing them over after you’ve gotten your study permit. Although people have applied with their family and gotten it, if you want to do that, you’ll have to show strong financial ties to the country (landed properties, assets worth a lot, a good job to come back to etc)

Lastly, if you’re applying without your family, you must show proof that they’ll be well taken care of in your absence (enough funds) All the money belonging to the family cannot be used for your studies. You’ll need to show a good amount available for their survival.

All the best sir

Frankrobbn1:
It is true that some GCMS notes may seem generic in meaning. Although, there are some Visa officers who carefully takes their time to review an application's entirety, most of which have been shared on this platform. If you check closely the reasons for the recent refusals, you will find out that the Visa officer is not far from the truth, some reasons may not actually reflect the true situation of the applicant, albeit, rather other reasons as highlighted by the VO may count. More importantly, is the fact that it's always a norm every year to see massive number of refusals on this thread especially towards September till the end of November. This has occasionally been taking place on this thread, so no one should be surprised about the sudden rejections from the High Commission of Canada in Nairobi. This piece of information isn't meant to discourage anyone but to prepare you mentally, physically and otherwise for the forthcoming challenges from Nairobi VO.

It is in your capacity to continue doing your very best and investing proper resources to ensure your application is a success. My advice to those that were recently rejected is that they should brace up, its never to late to pick up your broken pieces and find a possible way of restrategizing by demonstrating that your situation has significantly changed to merit a Visa to study in Canada. The time for expression of happiness and testimonies will definitely come provided that you're are completely committed to the process.


Best of luck to everyone in their respective TRV applications.


It will end in praise.

Legacyedition:
Hi everyone. Thanks for your help always



After paying my first semester tuition fee of $6k, I have only about 5m left in my own savings. I wanted to use my dad to cover up as the co-sponsor, but the man gave me account with 6 months total credit of 13m and closing balance of 6M. Will this be enough?..... So the whole year tuition balance is $6k and $10k upkeep . Should he be the only sponsor? Or both of us?.


Secondly, his proof of source of fund,

He has 3 registered companies.

But the major 1 which I knew and grew up with, he isn't the one that registered it and he had been using it since 1990s. It was a surprise to me when I couldn't find his name on the company particulars. I didn't collect the particulars,


I have the CAC and tax clearance certificate.

Won't this be like a lie if I used this?. Also I can't say he's employed into the company cos he doesn't have a boss, even the current company office, he built it.


Or I should just collect the second CAC certificate without tax clearance as proof of source of fund.?. Thanks.

Oga Frankrobbn1 , lati 3 days... Edakun, we need your input sir .

JustMellow:
Hello Legacyedition,

This advice is my personal advice which MAY be dependent on your age, employment history/earnings/inflow-outflow.

Present yourself as a self-sponsored applicant. get your pops to transfer 5m to you inaddition to the other 5m making 10m to your name. This covers the balance 6k CAD for TF and LE likewise sundry needs.

Your dad can then issue a Letter of Support stating the aforesaid commitment and his intention to meet the subsequent year's TF if the program is 2yrs.

I really don't understand the part B of your query but however while proven to have a strong finance, keep the two eyes wide open on your HT. If you're demonstrating HT with your pops company, be very creative with any given claim(s).

All the best

I think if your father is sponsoring you, his companies can be ignored .... let him send the money to your account , the names tally and that will go along way .

Documents! Documents !! Documents!!!

I always advise , it works again you most times .

He is your father , he should pay your fees if you don’t have anything doing at the moment to raise fees.

If they require more documents they will tell you .

Keep it quiet and low , even if you get a rejection it becomes easier to adjust , not when the whole shot has been shoot!
