Since my yahoo mail got compromised; though I reclaimed it, I have not been able to send mail. I do not have fb id.

Olami1224: Thanks, i did that since 2nd Nov, and submitted it at the Gate at the embassy, i was called lastweek monday that they have not received it, they had to ask me agian so i'm kinda confused.
Was the instruction to submit directly from CDHC?

newmusic: People should take note that credit card is different from debit card.

You can pay via phone or online with your credit card, it's the easiest and fastest means, I have not used debit card for online payment, only at the location of transaction (POS).

Banks that issue credit card without much hassles are FCMB and GTB, however they will ask you to open a domm account which you will transfer money to the cc from. The whole process will take about 3 weeks to open domm and cc together.

So except you know someone who can help you about the payment ie who has cc,domm or other means cause of time.
You can also make bank transfer, quite slow and expensive, commission and percentage etc...
I paid for my accommodation application fee with the GTBank naira master card i.e. my ATM card. I called my school's residence office and gave them the card number and other details when I could not do same via the internet.
I believe if the school allows that, then it is possible with the GTBank naira master card which is of course a debit card.
TravelRe: Travelling To Canada Part 3 by lft(m): 8:35pm On Nov 19, 2012
Olami1224: Hi everybody, those that were called to go and make payment through the phone, how did you submit the receipt? or wats the best way to submit the receipt.
Request the receipt from your school via email in PDF format. A printout of this will be accepted by CDHC. You can also attach a copy of the telex of the bank wire you did as this will show your name too.

@Dee_man, thank you for the link but the expiry date thing is still kinda confusing.

Is it that one can stay in Canada beyond the expiry date but cannot enter Canada after the expiry date if one is outside?

Goldie20: Hi everyone,

I got into this situation... In the past 2006, i applied for a vistor's visa to the US but it was denied. In 2007 , I applied again and got 1 year visa, went to the u.s, spent 6 months over there never over stayed and came back home. i decided to take a trip to belize in 2009 for a visit went to belize and decided to apply for a U.S student visa was denied and the reason was you were unable to demonstrate sufficiently strong economic , educational, family and or social linkages to belize that would compel you to return after your travel to the united states.. and i agree with that cuz i was only on a one month visitor's visa when i applied at that time but now I'M resident of this country and have all ties that links me to this place, But My Question I have a new passport now and I have decided to apply for college in canada , In the BACKGROUND INFORMATION "Have you ever been refused a visa, admission, or ordered to leave Canada or other countries? how should i answer this cause im worried if l answer with a yes i might be refused my study permit.. !? what do y'all suggest i do.. !? i need everyone thought on this..! plz sha! what advice do you have for brother oh ! P.S i have good travel history and never over stayed or got into any trouble, or over stayed my visa for any country!
@Goldie20, from all you said you've not been denied visa in any capacity by Canada. My suggestion is you fill 'NO'. Hope that answers your question? Cheers.

Got a call from the embassy on the 20th asking I pay the full tuition and accommodation and was given another 30days and asked to get a new start date since I was to begin my program in September.With regards accommodation I told the embassy staff that called me I wasn't going to pay for accommodation for one year.The story is on my first post.So they asked I present at least a guest agreement.I made the complete tuition payment and then made a hotel reservation, new start date and submitted on the 29th of October,2012.My Visa was approved on the 30th of October, 2012.I Thank God for the long journey.It was worth the wait.
