After reading this, I realised my dad didn't sign oo. I hope it won't affect me?. I didn't see any portion where my dad will sign

That I can't tell (hopefully it won't affect you).

There ought to be a Portion called DEPONENT on that AFFIDAVIT OF SPONSORSHIP, that's where your DAD is suppose to sign

Hi,

I'm currently working on completing my study permit application. I completed IELTS & upfront medical and i would like my application to go through the NSE route.

Should i submit my regular application and wait for them to request for the medical result, my bank statement and IELTS result for the NSE route or is it okay to upload everything upfront?

Please advice.

Yes you can,

Maygirl953:
Good morning everyone. I intend to apply for visa by February ending but I want my sponsor to give me affidavit of sponsorship now( because I'm gathering all the documents I will be needing for application), is it too early to get it for me now? Does he have to go to a court to swear the affidavit or is it just a written letter apart from the normal sponsorship letter

No it's not too early,

Your Uncle don't need to go to the court to swear an Affidavit of Sponsorship. Only you can do the package.

Just go to Notary Public with ur Sponsor's Passport Photograph & Your Own Passport Photograph.

Go with the details of your school in CANADA (School name & Address), also go there with your Uncle's Details (Home Address)

If you are based in Lagos,

Go to IKEJA, @ Oba Akinjobi way, the road leading to Ikeja G.R.A & Ikeja High court.,
u will see some women with Umbrella, (some standing, some sitting down) mentioning the word AFFIDAVIT continuously. Meet one of them

(The place is not far from the Popular Computer Village)

Cost : The range of #1,500 to #2,500

You can also check ijaiye road axis at OGBA, IKEJA , along where WAEC and NUJ (Nigerian Union of Journalism) office are located , u will also see some Women there mentioning the Word "AFFIDAVIT"

Once you get the AFFIDAVIT OF SPONSORSHIP, take it to your uncle, there is portion for him to Sign. that portion is called DEPONENT

ditha:
In my case, when I got the NSE request, i told my scholarship sponsors and requested for their bank statement,lol, instead they wrote out a letter of explanation for me to upload in the place of POF where they explained how established the scholarship is and details of its coverage.

I think the applicant should discuss with the school and see if they can provide some sort of evidence

Thanks for the information , well appreciated, would relay the info to the applicant

Lastly,

I know there are different kinds of scholarships, but in this context of Canada Fully-funded Scholarship, would the applicant need to show the conventional required Living Expenses or the fullyfunded Scholarship covers all?

Just asking all of this so the applicant would be on a safer side


Thanks

ditha:
Money? I didn't spend a dime.

Full-ride scholarship dear

Hi ditha,

Trust you are doing great ?

Based on your experience , how can an applicant who got a Fully-funded Scholarship from a University in Canada show Proof of funds?

What are the potential documents needed that is distinct from an Applicant with a Sponsor?


Thanks for your Time

TeeMade:
As hard as it is to type, this was thesame refusal letter I received yesterday too and mine even has family ties in Canada and in my home country. Ordering my gcms note already. .

So sorry about your Refusal ma'am, your GCMS Notes would be the eye opener to your refusal reasons.

All will be well miraculously in your re-application.

Stay Blessed ma'am

Please I am unable to download the student visa application forms from cic.

Can anyone help me with the forms or what can I do?

I have downloaded the latest version of ADOBE 10 but its still not opening

Hi,

Uninstall that Adobe Reader on your Computer & download this one in the link Below

Its file size is 169 MB (Latest Version December 2020)

https://www.techspot.com/amp/downloads/2083-adobe-reader-dc.html#download_scroll

Open the link above, and click on

OFFLINE INSTALLER, a page will open, so within seconds, a Download Prompt will pop up, then you can now download it.

Make sure you download the IMM forms with a Laptop or Computer from CIC website, don't download it from anywhere else cos they do update their IMM forms, the IMM form of August 2020 would likely be different from the IMM form of September 2020

By the way, see this

Congratulations Hon. Owolabi

Omofowobi:
Thank you sir.
What I can deduce from this is that we both have 1 course in common which is Environmental Engineering Application in Conestoga college.
Conestoga college is the one we want to apply in to.

Please Can I get like 2 other courses we both can apply for apart from Environmental Engineering Application. ��

By the way, did you go through this response I gave you (see the link)

https://www.nairaland.com/6321900/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/163#98327731

You and your friend should go thru it before making a decision, cos you both did different courses & your Transcript says different thing.

Like I said initially, .

It's now left for you & ur friend to convince a Visa Officer in your SOP (Statement of Purpose) on how any of the above programs you & your friend decide to go for is related to your Physics & Geology degree and how it is beneficial to your career and economy of Nigeria or the environmental/energy/Mining sector of Nigeria etc.

Physics is different from Geology

Geology has more of Chemistry (Rock Composition etc.) Unlike your course which is pure Physics

Good day everyone.. I have been a nairaland not too long. Thanks for the contributions and guidelines.
Please I want to go for my masters in Canada, Bsc in psychology, finished with 2.2. Please I will be needing your help

Hi,

You can't do a Masters in Canada with 2.2, it's very rare , your best shot is to apply for a Post Graduate Certificate in a Psychology related related program in a college

Queenose:
I graduated 2017, and am 1 year in the banking sector

Aiit,

Actually, I don't know if an Educational Gap of 4 years is much, guess the gurus/members in-house can clarify that.

I feel you can either go for a PG program in a Physiology related course or a Banking & Finance related course. But note that, if you must go for a Banking related course, despite not having a degree in it, this is what you must do (read the guidelines & instruction in the link below)
https://www.nairaland.com/5818588/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/414#95068409

So if you are through brainstorming on all of the above and you have decided the PG program category u want to go for (physiology or Banking), you can now come back and ask for the Programs & schools offering them.

Queenose:
Good day everyone,
I have b.sc in human physiology, graduated with 2:2
I work in the bank what are my chances of doing a post graduate diploma and getting the visa.
which school can I apply for?
thanks

Hi,

It depends on your profile

- When did you graduate?

- How many years of banking work experience do you have?

Reme145678:
Thank you very much, but please what is gcms and how can I get it?

You are welcome,


The GCMS (Global Case Management System) is a system used by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to process immigration and citizenship applications.

​The system contains a detailed record of each applicant’s file, including correspondence to and from IRCC, documents received from the applicant, detailed notes from the officers reviewing the file, and other relevant information.
GCMS notes are considered to be the only option for applicants to get the most accurate and exhaustive view of their IRCC file. With your right to get a copy of these notes, you can thus be caught up with the status of your application, and take any steps necessary to increase the chances of your application getting approved.

You can read the Content in the link below for details about GCMS Notes

Hi Lekkiboe
Please what post graduate diploma course can I do that will be termed career progression (I finished with a third class estate management)?
I’ve been searching can’t seem to find any
Thanks

Non I know of aswell,
but you can try to strategize & be innovative.


You studied Estate Management, why not go for a Business Management program
e.g
International Business Management, Global Business Management, Strategic Global Business Business, Strategic Marketing Communications

Now the question is ,
How can you relate your Estate Mgt. to Business Management & Show Career Progression?
I feel you can

explore the financial aspects of all real estate transactions, from residential to commercial to international

Solve specific problems or issues related to the analysis of real estate financing alternatives.

Possibly your Career Prospects/Future goals can be in commercial property management and sales, investment management, brokerage, mortgage banking & leasing


You can use Google to do more research on how you can make a Connection between the aforementioned programs & your Estate Management degree

very well detailed.....thanks

For me to get 1 year PGWP in Saskatchewan,, is it mandatory I school there please?

You welcome

No it is not compulsory you school at Saskatchewan before you can do your PGWP there, but if you school there, that's additional 5 points for you (Connection to Saskatchewan Labour Market & Adaptability).

Look at this instance,
I learnt many of this Chinese Students schooling in ONTARIO etc. goes to Prince Edward Island (PEI) to do their PGWP so they can be able to get PR much faster/easier.

So in a nutshell, you can do your PGWP at any province even if you didn't school there

Reomond:
Thanks for the feedback. what do you think about Business Analyst related course please?

I don't know how Business Analysis relate with your Background in Accounting ,Banking & Finance.

I guess forum members who are in this field would be able to explain better

Reomond:
Yes I have a profile 430. SNP 68. I’m over 35 already so I’m looking at study route

I will assume the SNP you wrote is meant to be SINP (Saskatchewan Immigration Nominee Provincial).

So probably after you are through with your PG. Cert program, you can do your one years PGWP in Saskatchewan and use it to gain one year Saskatchewan Work Experience which will give you 5 points (Connection to Saskatchewan), then after you are through with PGWP, get a Job offer ASAP & that can add to your 68 points, cos if you get a Job Offer in Saskatchewan ,you will get 30 points, so that will be 103 points (more than 100 points already) for you in total. You should get a PR with that

You can get more enlightenment on this from the Canada Express Entry forum

Reomond:
Please I’ll appreciate suggestions on suggested courses I can go for. I had HND Accounting, PGD Accounting and Masters in Banking and Finance. I have been working in Finance related field for over 10years.
Kindly assist as I’m hopeful I can make Sept 2021.
Thanks

Reme145678:
Glory be to God, what God can not do does not exist I got a rejection letter please what can I do because to rectify this issue?

So sorry about your Refusal

To rectify this issue,

You would need to order for your GCMS Notes (which would take 28-35 days to get) so as to see the VO's comment/assesment about your application. Your GCMS note will show the reasons why you were refused cos the refusal reasons on this refusal letter sent to you is a GENERIC one. In a nutshell, so as not to re-apply blindly, get your GCMS Note

It's the content in that VO's Comment on your GCMS Notes you gonna address/tackle

Then you can comeback here to the forum & show the refusal reasons (Screenshot of the bolded VO's Comment), so gurus & members in house will be able to give result-oriented advice/suggestions

While you await your your GCMS notes,

Educate yourself with this content & also watch the videos there, it will be helpful during your re-application
