Some Indian folks can't help it but troll IRCC

Hopefully all will be well soon for all applicants

Toluchenko:
Thanks @Lekiboboe, @hollivile, @JustMellow and everyone for the advise.

I filled the questionnaire and the required documents spooled out for my profile are; Application for study permit made outside of Canada (IMM1294), Letter of acceptance, International Passport, Proof of funds, Passport Photo, Family Information, Application for a Temporary Resident Visa made outside Canada (IMM5257) and Letter of explanation.

There were NO Letter of employment, letter of introduction of employer, payslip, degree cerificate, transcript, nysc cerificate and the others in the required documents to provide.

The list looks really weird (quite easy) though, compared to what I was expecting...I hope I am not mixing things up (cause I am wondering why my profile does not require at least my BSc certificate and transcripts)??

Also take note of this dashboard, so you know the appropriate categories to upload your documents

Hi Lekiboboe!

I appreciate your good works here. God bless you!
I have same issue. For the BOLD, in my case, IRCC explained as:
IRCC If you would like to provide more information about your application that you have not already provided, you can attach a letter of explanation.

That's how it ended. I felt that's all I needed. I thought may be because it was my second time. My marriage certificate was provided the first time last year, as well as my BA transcripts and certificate, NYSC certificate, birth certificate... Though I attached my masters transcripts and certificate with my LOE because of an explanation I made. What do you think. Would they make reference to my last refused application of last year for those documents or do I need to provide them. Submitted online July 8, resuming Monday August 31, no update yet. Raised a web form yesterday.

Thanks for stepping in, sir.

U are welcome Honorable

Amen!!!!

From my own opinion,
As per them referencing ur last application, i think they do (they can be unpredictable). The expectation of a VISA OFFICER from a Second time applicant is he/she should have addressed the reasons he/she didn't get an approval the first time he/she applied.

Did u order the GCM notes of ur first application?
Cos that will give u full details on why u didn't get the approval the first time u applied.

The GCM note would be an eye opener on how u could av crafted your subsequent application.

Good afternoon everyone, please is it compulsory to have an English test before one can gain masters admission in Canada . If No please I need names of schools I can apply to without English test . Thank you

Its not compulsory,

If u are a NIGERIAN, u are exempted from doing IELTS, u don't need an English Test to apply for a Masters in Canada, NIGERIA is an English Speaking Country & ur medium of instruction from the University/Polytechnic & ur High skool is English etc. .
IELTS (English Test) for admission in Canada are meant for countries whose language or official language is not ENGLISH e.g India, China, Philippine , Vietnam etc.

Only if u want to apply for PERMANENT RESIDENCY (PR) ,that's when u would need to do a compulsory ENGLISH TEST (IELTS)

So go ahead and apply for masters (if u have the requirement),
,just make sure there is career progression in the masters program u are going for e.g a B.SC in Biology, going for Masters in Microbiology

What u got after finishing the Questionnaire is jz a Generic required documents for u to upload, but ur CLIENT INFORMATION needs more than that

If u check the meaning of Client Information on IRCC it will tell u that: If you would like to provide more information about your application that you have not already provided, you can attach a letter of explanation, police Certificate, NYSC cert. etc. to your application i.e SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS

This link below shows how DOCUMENTS were arranged, merged & Uploaded to CLIENT INFORMATION & PROOF OF MEANS OF FINANCIAL SUPPORT of an Application
https://www.nairaland.com/5818588/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/202#92527802

You will discover that there are lot's of DOCUMENTS IRCC didn't ask for in the documents in the link.above but were merged & uploaded

To ur last two paragraphs, e.g Letter of Employment, NYSC certificate, degree cert. , transcript, Letter Of Explanation (SOP) etc. are meant to be in ur CLIENT INFORMATION (u will merge them all together inside One PDF file and upload to the CLIENT INFORMATION)

Anything that involves money/finances e.g pay slip, bank statement, tuition fee receipt etc. are to be uploaded in the PROOF OF MEANS OF FINANCIAL SUPPORT (u will merge them together inside One PDF file aswell and upload to the PROOF OF MEANS Of FINANCIAL SUPPORT)

This should walk you through on that

Someone please come to my aid!!!!!!! My wife had a 3rd Class in Computer Science and I want her to go to Canada for her PGD and also a place where the tuition fees are very much affordable. We've searched for cheap schools but we've found out that, one school called Memorial University of Newfoundland has cheap tuition fees on their website but mhen, it's a trap coz there are other fees attached to it without ur knowledge and when attached, it makes it one of the most expensive schools in Canada, and funny enough they don't offer PGD for Computer Science. Can someone please help me with a link or many links that will assist her in getting cheap colleges that will accept her in that same Computer Science field for PGD, please!!!!!!

Computer Science is a very wide field , jz like Medicine & Geology, so she would likely not see a PGD in computer science in a college, she will only see programs (specialized programs) closely related to It e.g Cyber security, IT Business Analysis, programming ,Animation, GIS, software development, mobile development. Web development etc.

She can check out the link below for Computer Sci. Related Graduate Programs and schools offering them
https://www.ontariocolleges.ca/en/programs/search?q=Compute&page=0&by%5BProgramCredentialEnglish%5D%5B0%5D=Graduate%20Certificate

and also she should search for a Computer sci. related PGD course of her interest in that SEARCH BOX of that link above

Also find attached a PDF file of Colleges and their programs in Canada,

Look for Graduate Certificate in Computer Science Related Programs,
then google them , and check out their Admission requirements and also their respective Tuition fee for International students

From a Vlog I saw recently, Tuition fee of some schools in Canada most esp. ONTARIO province have bin increased within the range of 3% &15%

[quote author=Preshy2004 post=93182802][/quote]u are welcome

Good evening All,

I got an acceptance letter to UNB this morning but please i have some questions:

I have studied the estimated fees - $35,378.00 for the first year and $31,677.50 for the second year with total of $67,055.50 ( tutition, living, books and feeding expense inclusive) for the whole programme. While for tuition alone is $20,278.00 for the first year and $16,577.50 for the 2nd year resulting to $36,855.50 for the whole programme. Where i need clarification is minimum of how much should reflect in my sponsors account balance as a proof of funds to apply for Visa. i noticed the letter is a conditional offer - can one use a conditional offer for Visa application? Also for those very familiar with UNB please help.

Also, please can someone assist with a detailed list and first step in applying for study permit and how to go about it also docs to get ready. I am a novice in this area and willing to learn.

Congratulations on ur ACCEPTANCE

Medicals passed
Biometrics done
AIP received
PPR next.

So it will be for all of us.

A Big Congratulations to u

Amen!!! So shall it be

I got a question,

Does Upfront Medicals take long to reflect in one's profile?, No medical result Review yet....
cos presently here it still says "You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes"

Jesusrules24:
I could not get an early date for biometrics in Lagos, so I am choosing Abuja instead.

I am trying to book for medicals in Abuja but the website is not so responsive. I have also tried calling the numbers on the website but they are switched off.

Has anyone done medicals in Abuja recently?

How did you book? Please help ASAP!

Online booking seems to be the surest via their website
Try another Browser (like Google Chrome)

HOW TO BOOK FOR MEDICALS at IOMHAC Lagos or Abuja Center (Upfront Medical or if u got a Medical Invite)

1. I used their website and it worked fine for me. - https://mymedical.iom.int/apps/omas/

2) Go with your International passport. However, if you currently have a medical condition, go with your report and prescription.

3) If it is medical request, they won't give you anything to upload. If upfront, you will get a slip to upload.

4) Please do well to go there with proof of payment of medical fees.
I did not print my transfer slip and that caused a little delay for me. The officer wanted to send me out to print it but I had to practically force him to print it with the printer in the office.
This method may not work for everyone so please go there with the print out of your transfer. Also try to do the transfer two days before your appointment date. It'll make confirmation easy for you. In my case, the officer wrote "Pending" on my progress slip because they were yet to confirm transfer. Save yourself that hurdle.

Further advice:
- Go early. Book for 8am.
- Drink plenty of water before the medical screening.
- Relax, It takes approximately 2 hours 30 minutes. If you are healthy, you will be fine

All this oyibo people nor get joy o.
It seems Ireland applicants and Denmark applicants are more than Canadian applicants.
I was wondering, is it due to high refusal in Canada or pandemic

To ur last sentence, it might be so..
Sometimes last year,
a guy told me about Denmark that they av lots of Tuition free Universities (bachelor's & Masters)

Also according to him,
Ireland seems to have a quite flexible and a non-harsh approach in decision making for international students applying to their tertiary institutions & Study Visa

But funny enough, they end up coming back to CANADA for Residence, Work purpose etc.

MadeMan01:
Got there 6.30 am to beat traffic from Egbeda.
By 7am queue had been forming outside.i joined queue at 8am as I was scared of crowd and my appointment was 9.20am.
By 9am, a staff of VFS came to announce that biometrics Canada was first and would be called in hourly batches. Mine was 9-10am. ( Advice for those booking to pick early hour if you don't want to waste time there. Pick later time if you may arrive late). A tout finally confirmed I don't need pictures for biometrics. He viewed the passport photos I had on me from home and said they were good and compliant to specifications but I don't need it for biometric as the VFS would capture my pics and finger prints. I tipped him N200 for being honest when I came out. Under 30minutes

Went in, filled 2 consent forms given by VFS staff and was 7th to be attended to. 15 booths so clients are speedily attended to for different stages. All the best to all. Go with pen so you won't be borrowing to fill form. All required docs:
2 copies coloured passport data page
1copy appointment letter
1copy Biometric Instruction Letter

Wow, ok..Thanks for this honorable

I wish u that Congratulatory Approval Email & PPR

Remain Blessed!!
