Hello Itsfolake

Yours was actually created by the Visa Officer that approves (EAIMEL) and was handed over to the Visa Officer that refuses.(AH03849..

Guess your prayer was not strong enough...

Peace

ItsFolake:
Application refused based on Personal Assets and financial status.

Hello Chisolove

That will be a Judicial review, it's not as easy as you have said.. First of all, I assume the AH03849 is a Senior Visa Officer..
But truly something needs to be done about him/her..

Like the applicant that complained earlier that he was a SELF Sponsor and AH03847 refused him for finance stating his parents sponsored him, such applicant can go for Judicial review and the lawyer can use that opportunity to make mention of the Visa officer's unnecessary reasons for refusing other applications...

Peace

Chisolove3:
Yes I noticed...Don't you think we should report him/her or something and his reasons are always the same "Funds seem available, I don't think this study is a reasonable expense,bla bla bla....just the same line of reasons.... His own do too much,let him take time before God will do justice to him/her

Hello Ominni

Yes, it's obvious Visa Officer AH03849 is a senior Visa Officer and makes most of the final decisions of the refused applications reported to me so far. All approved applications reported to me so far were handled by different Visa Officers..

I am still expecting more reports from approved applicants, before we conclude on his matter...

Peace

Omiinii:
I see! you're making sense but do you know what again I noticed. In a GCMS notes we have about 5-9 sections/sub-sections depending on the type of application (some parts may be blank for some applications e.g express entry and some won't).

That our CODE(AH03849) updated your ELIGIBILITY ASSESSMENT. That changes things meaning it's not a body only responsible for an applicant's finances. All other sub sections of your notes(client details, criminality and medicals) was from different codes till boom you go rejected by the code that updated the most important section of your application. YOUR ELIGIBILITY!! .... putting 2 and 2 side by side it's evidence that that code is the code of the senior immigration officer not a body.
From the things we know, we are aware that only a senior officer can make a final decision on an application. That futher disqualifies the assumption that it's a body that focuses on finances of PA

Hmmmm...

Another refusal from this same Visa Officer AH03849..

Marvelous001:
Hello Makano, I just joined this trend. Same v.o also refused me based on personal asset and financial status. This is my 3rd time of applying.

Hello Mercy

I do not seem to understand your Post?

Were you approved or Delayed?

Also was it Visa Officer AH03849 that handled your application..

mercy445:
I applied for my gcms note close to my PPR, it was meant to come in October 15, but it says it's delayed I don't know why. I just took a quick look at my last gcms note, this Officer assigned my file to someone else. I hope this helps a little.

All the best to everyone waiting.

Hello Chisolove

Yes, a different Visa Officer worked on your hubby's application..

With the approved reports I have gotten so far, that particular Visa officer (AH03849) has not attended to any approved application..

More reports from approved applicants will be appreciated, because its still early to conclude..

Peace

Peace

Chisolove3:
@Makano, that's my hubby GCMS notes before PPR arrived, guessed a different VO handled the application

Hello Jolly

Nairobi is responsible for 90% of Nigeria study Visa applications, meaning they don't work on all applications from Nigeria..

Other Offices that attend to a few of Nigerian applications are Accra, Lagos, and London.. That is why I advise any applicant sending messages for his/her delayed application should not only send to Nairobi, but also to Lagos, London, and Accra..

From 2016 or so to 2018 , ACCRA was the Principal IRCC Office for Nigeria study permit applications before Nairobi took over in 2019 till date, so it's possible Accra still attends to a few of Nigeria study permit applicantions..

But from my research, the ACCRA office attends to Express Entry Applications from Nigeria Applicants...

Peace

Hello Canfulfilment, please take note..

Jay316:
sorry sir, he cant create a GIC account for him as only the recipient can do that.My brother wanted to do that for me but could not.what u will do is tell him to open a Domiciliary account and send the money for GIC to that Domiciliary account. pay a little over the money cos there will be interbank and offshore charges.then let him open a GIC account and transfer the money for his GIC to CIBC.
note that when he is submitted his proof of funds ,he should attach his Domiciliary account statement to show that u sent the money from Canada for that GIC and he should indicate it in his letter of explanation in the proof of fund section.also u must state it in ur letter of support /sponsorship that u have demonstrated ur willingness to sponsor him by paying his school fees and sending him money to pay for his GIC cos according to the bank rules,u could not pay it directly urself .only the applicant /customer can.if u pay the money from ur account, they will return ur money back ,less charges.

Nairobi Kenya..

Peace

jollytravels:
please if I may ask this question pls which visa office is this officer from?

Hello amiecandle

Since you claim you did justice to the reason for the lump sum in your account, let's hope the Visa Officer Is convinced..

And to the bolded, normally I do not advise applicants to submit documents without IRCC requesting for it with the exception of Upfront Medical E-sheet..

But since their is a further review on your POF, then you can go ahead and forward an updated SOA..

Peace

amiecandie:
Thank you so much for responding @makano

I applied May 14th and medicals already passed was done upfront.

I had a lump sum which was well explained a loan obtained and the loan documents attached and also proceeds from land sales which was also explained properly.

My tuition fee was fully paid before the application and receipt included.

Should I forward an updated SOA (MBS) plus my co-sponsor's too?

I will really appreciate your input.

Thank you

Hello Eclint

Understand that a Principal Visa officer can be likened to a senior officer, which means there are Junior officers under him/her or reports to the principal officer..

Hope you understand now..

Peace

eclint:
Can one principal VO handle all the applications from naija? I doubt he/she is the only one.

Hello Ketima

Thanks for your prompt response, but I never said the VO hates Nigerians though..

Just wanna know more about the operation of the VO as regards Final Decision and if he/she is the principal VO for Nigerian applications..

Peace

Ketima:
Yes. let me support by including mine. But then, I don't really buy into the fact that the VO hates Nigerians, but then we never can know. Cos we have had plenty people under him or her complain. Guess I was lucky my file was not assigned to him or her.

I guess from my assessment note, that's why Lagos VO called me to send my old and renewed passport by email. Same day 4hrs later, I got PPR.

Good luck

It will end in praise..

Peace

Canfulfilment:
Thank you so much. Yes I can provide pictures. His mum is my elder sister actually. And I have a picture of us.

This application seems so complicated. I will do my best though,

Hello Muna

Guess you didn't capture the Medical aspect of the GCMS notes cos I cant see anything Medical here..

And if this is what you uploaded, then that means IRCC does not need a Medical examination from you yet..

Peace

Munamoqel:
Can some one help me check this medical info on my note .I didn't receive any medical request.

Hello Canfulfilment

Since you have the bolded, it will be very useful in backing up your claims.. And as per the pictures, since you don't have a personal picture with, I wanna believe you have pictures with your mum and your younger sister who is his mother I assume.. You can upload those pictures and explain to the Visa Officer of your relationship with them..

Pay his full school fees, you can create a GIC account for him since you are in Canada, and also you can send his living expenses to his Account.. Just make sure you do everything possible to show that you will truly be financially committed to him all through his studies in Canada...

Peace

Canfulfilment:
Thank you so much.

This my nephew lost his Dad when he was 8 months old. My sister being so young kept him with us and went for her NYSC and she never took him back till she got married to another man.

He has lived with us all through his life. He is just 19 and I left home since he was 5 and do not have pictures of us together.

But I can provide evidence of bank transaction for his WAEC, I send him money too for up-keep, can provide his pictures with my mum and younger sis. I do not just have pictures with him.

I have every document to support pof, can pay his full tuition and buy him GIC. Are these enough? Sorry for the long epistle.

Hello House

Of recent, we have been having complaints of this particular Visa Officer (AH03849), of how he/she refuses applications for no just reasons.. I do not wanna believe this Visa Officer is all about refusals, so I want us to do our home work as regards his/her operation and it will take our cooperation here to achieve this..

Now, this goes to the applicants here that were approved, and this will be like a give back from you to the thread that has helped you get your Visa. Now please order for your GCMS notes and when its ready share with us on this thread, let us see if this is the same Visa Officer(AH03849) that approved your application or not...

With this, we will also know if this particular Visa Officer is in charge of Nigerian applicants.. I know the approved applicants will say what is the point of ordering my GCMS notes when I have already gotten my Visa, please note you are doing the good of this thread that has blessed you with so much information prior to the time you got your Visa..

On behalf of this thread, I appeal to the approved applicants here to order for their GCMS notes, so we can carry this survey on the operation of this particular Visa Offier..

I know these Officers are watching us here, so let us make a point..

Peace

Hello amiencandle

U didn't state when you applied though.

They are doing a further review on your proof of funds to see if truly it will be available all through your studies in Canada.. Hope you do not have a lump sum in your SOA though..

I can also see that your application was assigned by the Visa Officer (3849) many applicants here do not like to another Visa Officer to review the proof of funds..

But this looks like they are in the final stage of your application... Get ready for a final decision soon..

Was your Medicals requested or upfront?

Peace

amiecandie:
My hearty congratulations to everyone that received PPR and for those denied ,please stay strong and request for your gcmsnotes to identify the specific reasons and tackle it. It shall surely end in praise.

Please gurus in the house I just recieved the cbsa notes that requested for almost 2months ago. I need your advice and explanation on what to do based on the pre-assessment notes. My tuition for the 12months course is fully paid

Hello Canful

Yes, you are a 3rd party sponsor to the applicant.. But that does not mean your nephew won't be approved, as a 3rd party sponsor, you just need to go the extra mile to convince the Visa Officer that you will be financially committed to the applicant all through his study in Canada.

If you have sponsored him in the past with proves and also if you have pictures of you and him or you, his parents, and himself, then you can add them to the application..

Also, work on your Letter of sponsorship and be ready to drop vital documents that will back up your claims of commitment to the applicant all through his study in Canada.

Peace

Canfulfilment:
Please guys I need clarification. Is sponsoring a nephew considered third party sponsorship? Besides, I am a resident of Canada, willthis hamper his chances?

Hello Man

A personal bank statement of an Applicant who has a sponsor isn't compulsory but necessary. We have seen several applicants getting their PPR without submitting their SOA..

It is only compulsory for self-sponsored applicants..

Peace

ManLikeB:
please my mom is my sponsor, she has already provided 4 landed properties, gifted me one property, also three of her bank statements of arooud 22m. [b]should i include my personal bank statement [/b]having in mind that the closing balance is low and i also use it some times to trade crypto ?? or should i just fly with my sponsors alone

I am not talking about this application now.. Submitting the relevant documents to prove your sponsor's source of income will take care of this..

I mean when re-applying, make sure you go through your application(documents, SOP, LOE e.t.c) again and see yourself as the Visa Officer to make sure they won't find any other reason to refuse your application..

Like I said in my earlier post to your query, it's likely another Visa Officer will take over your re-application. And once this happens, the Visa officer will treat your re-application like a new one.. Meaning he/she will go through the entirety of your re-application and not just this reason you have just tackled...

Peace

KellyKk:
I think there is no other likely concern aside from what it’s stated in my note sir .

Pls can u point out other likely ones . I will attach the note again

Hello Dolly

if the 100k is consistent before and after the 450k, then it cant be considered a lump sum..

A lump sum in summary is a sudden huge amount of money that the account isn't familiar with or close to the lump amount....

Peace

dollymon:
Please guys is 450k considered as lump sum? Amount of 100k has entered into the account a couple of times tho

Please do..

And make sure in your re-application, you touch other likely concerns of the Visa officer..

It will end in praise..

KellyKk:
Thank you boss……
She has her business I stated in SOP but i didn’t back it with any documents. I’m trying to gather documents to support her business now

The online route is the way....

You can compress the documents...

If your SOA printout is part of the bulky documents, I will advise you to go for MBS and remove the printouts.. You can also knock out some not too necessary documents..

Peace

Biot34:
Good evening guru in house....can I apply on paper route?
Because my document is much

Hello Kelly

This is actually easy to tackle...

They know the required funds are available but they have little concerns about the source of the funds... Guess you didn't submit enough documents to back up the source of your sponsor's income..

If your sponsor is working, you will need to submit Payslips of your sponsor, official documents, promotions letters, and other documents to show that truly he/she has a job that brings in consistent income.

If your sponsor is a business person or owns a company, your sponsor needs to submit CAC documents, contract documents, Transaction receipts, and other documents to show that truly he/she has a business that brings in consistent income..

In all, you will need to convince the Visa Officer of a source of a consistent flow of income.

And note, it's not about the Visa Officer cos this same Officer would have approved some applications , in fact, you should pray your re-application goes to this same Visa Officer cos if it goes to another Visa Officer, he/she will treat your application like a new application and will see other reasons to refuse an application.

That is why if an application is first refused for just a reason, the next refusal can come with 4 other refusal reasons.

The prayer everyone should pray is that God should direct your application to the Visa Officer that will favour your application...

Peace

KellyKk:
Makano and other gurus in house pls let’s tackle my GCMS together.
Note my mom is my sponsor with 29m balance and my own personal account with 10m . I paid tuition deposit of 11kCD as mandated by school . I showed my prove of work too. And I have noticed the same VO has refused RollyA and so many other applicants
But is he/she the only officer with this refusal mindset . I no pray for this VO again in my next app

Hello Tyreal

Order for your GCMS notes to know the exact concerns of the Visa officer..

All these you just stated here are the normal generic reasons... When your GCMS note is ready, you can upload it here so the knowledgeable peeps here can guide and advise you accordingly..

tyreal:
Good evening everyone
please what can someone being denied based on personal assets and financial status do? Not satisfied leaving Canada at the end of the study based on personal assets and financial status. please answer me I beg of you all.

Hello Canada2022

It's advisable you leave the funds cos of recent IRCC have been requesting for updated Statement of Account from applicants to be sure the funds are still available as stated by the applicant at the time of applying...

@makano, tnx for your reply.
My sponsor recently travelled, and I don't know when he will come back.
I have 2 sponsors
Should I submit for my main sponsor, and use webform for my second sponsor.
Or[b], is there anyway I can do high compression with good quality.[/b]

Hello Jioke

It must be 4MB..

And make sure the documents are clear, cos I have seen in a GCMS note where the Visa Officer pointed out an SOA that wasn't clear as one of the reasons for refusal....

First bank does MBS, if your branch can't do it, go to another branch.. We have First bank branches everywhere..

Better still you can take the time to go to their headquarter and do it...

Do not take chances..

Peace

Jioke1994:
Hi ppr hopefuls!
My proof of means of financial support docs have been merged, but it's 13 mb after compression.
I got 4.09 mb after compressed again, but my uncle's bank statement is not clear.
Pls, must it be below 4 mb?
We tried to get mbs at my sponsor's bank branch, but it was not possible...First bank.
We got tired, and decided to print bank statement.

Hello Canadaboy

I wonder why Canada would refuse it's boy..

Order for your GCMS notes, if you sit up and address the concerns of the Visa Officer, I see you getting your Visa in your next application..
