Hello Angel

You cant apply to a different school while your application is still on.

And if your application is approved and you still wanna change school, you must apply for another study permit application..

Find below the link to educate yourself more..

Hello Chymallchamps

If IRCC needs an updated LOA, then they will request for it.

So I will advise you wait cos you now have alot of time on your side, but once you get your PPR, do well to send them a copy of your updated LOA.

Hello Nazkid1

Yes, IRCC contacts sponsors, but in rare occasions..

I do not think its still their practice though, the last time I came across IRCC contacting Sponsors was in part 18 or so..

But I will advise you don't leave any stone unturn, cos IRCC are never predictable..

Hello Tutu

Travel history is never a problem or a barrier to you getting your Canadian Visa..

70% of my applicants that get Visa have not even left the shores of the state in Nigeria where they reside.. So its not a problem at all..

You just to convince the Visa officer that you will be a genuine student in Canada and you also have enough funds to take care of you without the help of the Candian government..

Hello Benedict

2. Its almost impossible to get a Master's degree admission with a 2.2 in a Canadian University, so your best option is a Post graduate degree Program in any of the DLIs.
3. Check Ontario colleges (OCAS). Many schools are already closing for May 2023 intake though, so act fast.
4. I don't see this as a question. But if I should add, then its better u go for a Networking course, Computer Engineering oe Web development depending on the area that is beneficial to you.
5. This also doesn't look like a question. You can apply as a self sponsor though.
6. I have answered this question above in no 2.
7. Well, most colleges in Ontario do not have tuition fees less than 12k. Maybe you will have to look at NBCC.. But note, IRCC take as priority for Visa when you go for schools that have higher tuition fees and most of them are found in Ontario, that does not mean NBCC do not get Visa, but not compared to schools like Conestoga or Niagara..

Hello matthew

The bolded is a funny question though, the only thing you can do now is to pray that God favours your application.

The Visa application is processed stage by stage by the IRCC Officers, if your application is on the route of getting approved, you wll def get a Medical request, if not, you wont get any Medical request (God forbid)..

But on the alternative, you can book for an upfront Medicals and when its done, you can submit your E- Medical result to IRCC via webform and emails, then your medical will be changed to Passed after some days or week..

Your application has already been submitted, So at this stage you cant literarily do anything to get a Medical request..

Just keep praying you passed the Eligibility and move to the next stage....

That is why its always said that no one fully knows the operations of IRCC Visa officers..

I have come across an applicant who got a PPR request, sent his Passport and passport was returned with 5 years ban... That was the 1st and the last(except it happens again) I have seen so far in my knowledge of this Visa processing.....

Hello Letuspray

Like I always say, there is no specific timeline when it comes to getting Final decision from IRCC for any kinda Canadian visa application. Long before now, it use to take several months to get a final decision.

But with my experience with many applicants of recent, the earliest I have seen for a SOWP final decision is 1 moth 2 weeks.. SO it depends..

IRCC ha actually calmed down with the final desicions for SOWP applications, we hope it continues..

Hello stanmorry

Now I am gonna say this from the GCKEY Perspective,

There are different sections of upload apart from the sections of the IMM Forms.

Now, the section of Proof of funds is where you will upload the merged documents to back up your Proof of funds.. Like we all know, you are to upload a file per section. So what this means is that all the documents for POF will be merged together as 1 and then uploaded in the POF section..

Peace

Hello quinster

When your application is approved, you get a Passport request from IRCC which requires you to submit your Passport for stamping..

Now, what is stamped on your passport is the [b]Visa [/b]which is valid for a year. This means you must leave for Canada before the expiring date of your Visa.. This Visa is what permits you to travel to Canada.

Now when you get to Canada POE, after your successful screening from the POE officers, a study permit is now issued to you that permits you to study in Canada.

Hope this was helpful..

Hello olokings

Thank for the kind words

Like I said in my previous post, It is my posts here and advises that attracts applicants to me cos I have never in my 5 years on this thread go to any applicant all in the name of Visa application, cant stoop so low for that..

I have a Job of my own as a Software Developer coupled with my freelance Job as a Programmer that fetches me not less than 500k every month, so I know my worth..

Thanks once again bro, it shows we are of like minds....

By the way,
An unsolicited advise to @Makano from a business developer,
Anybody who reads your comments and advise here will know from the first second you're a guru and know your onions.

Continue giving the advise and let folks who need your undivided focus engage you at your fee.

Use that to differentiate your craft so as not to be tagged amongst the street hustlers.

IMHO. No prejudice.
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 22 by makano: 6:00pm On Sep 21, 2022
My attention was called to these ridiculous posts of yours. Normally I wouldn't have replied to you cos I don't really have the time to engage in words with kids like you, but to set the record straight and clear the good name I have been building for years, I will reply only this once.

First let me ask you, since the time you have been putting ur gullible posts on here, has any applicant here come to stamp ur post that yes Frank or Makano is a scam? has anyone come out to talk? Instead, peeps have come here to say good things about Us.

it's obvious you actually have nothing to do with your life. Why u are here wasting ur life away, I have been away building my career as a Software Developer, while you have been here making a nuisance of yourself, I have gotten 3 professional certifications, the reason for my long absence from this thread.

I am sure you are not blind to see in my Bio that I do not associate myself with anything that has to do with agents. Even applicants that come to me and call me an agent, I correct them instantly that I am not an agent, that I am fine with Guru.

If you are literate enough, you would have taken time to read the posts of the people u claim are scammers before coming here to spit trash. In my over 2500 posts since 2017, I have never for once advertised myself or call myself an agent, the highest I have done is to put down my email which is only done when an applicant request it., even when one of my applicants posted my number here, I had to inform the applicant to go delete my number form a faceless forum as nairaland. My expertise, wide knowledge of the Canadian immigration process and good work here is the one speaking for me. This is the reason many applicants here contact me for professional guidance for their Visa application and by the grace of God, they have been getting results working with me with so many Approval testimonies here.


And you claiming I created other monikers and posting fake PPRs, smh, this simply shows you are just an unintelligent Jobless fellow. So with my busy schedule as a software developer (I am sure you don't even know who Software developers are) coupled with spending quality time with my Wife and kids, attending to other important things as a family man and the applications I handle, I will now stoop so low to come to act like the child that you are? Naaa. I wouldn't have even behaved like that 12 years ago.., cos matured adults won't even turn themselves jobless here 24/7.

And yes, I charge applicants that come to my DM seeking my professional guidance as regards their study permit applications cos they have to pay for my time, the time I will use out of my busy schedule to work on their visa application, they will have to pay for the time cos they are the ones that come to me and not me going to them. I have never in my presence on this forum contacted or forced any moniker here for Visa application, instead, I receive loads of mail from applicants because they have seen how capable I am on this thread.

Like I always say, you are just creating attention and wanna be unnecessarily popular by quoting the Gurus that have made good names for themselves on this forum. Note that My Software development Job coupled with my freelance job as a programmer fetches me not less than 500k a month. The professional certifications I wrote cost more than a Million, So that tells you my life isn't tired to nairaland. I have been away from nairaland for over a week now cos of my professional exams and projects, I just had to come here to post this cos many of my applicants have been telling me of the dumb and absurd posts you have been posting here.

I will advise you as an Elder brother cos I am sure the last born in my family should be older than you, Dude, people are really making headways in their careers by developing themselves in their field, you have to go to LinkedIn and see how the achievement of young people challenge you to even be the best you can in your career, but all you do is to come to a faceless forum as this looking for what is not lost. My kid brother, get a life, and stop wasting away here.. This life is too short to be irrelevant in this world.


A word they say is enough for the Wise.

Hello eseosaaa

Why sound or act so desperate?

Your application isn't even up to 2 months, i.e its not even close to the Processing time of 12 weeks and you are already sending countless number of Mails and webforms..

And who fed you with the assumption that 2nd applications will get quick final decision, I don't know where you all get these things from.. I dunno how many times it has been stated here that there is no specific timeline for a Final decision when it comes to Canada Visa application in general (not just study).

I will advise you to be calm and wait till when your application is above the processing time of 12 weeks before you start your countless mails and webforms.. I just pray your expectation of a quick response wont be a refusal, you need to be calming down..

Quickly contacted Makano, the instrument God used for me, he did not disappoint. He had time for my questions, would not give me space to relent when I felt like giving up.
I had lump sums and no documentation to back it up fortunately, Makano noticed I could use my statement since the large amount were from my employer and was stated there.
Makano did a good job on the LOE and SOP, afterwards I applied.

Hello Adeade

Documents sent to IRCC are always received by them but not acknowledged most times. They sometimes acknowledge the documents they requested for but documents that are sent to IRCC without any request from them do not get acknowledged most times, but be rest assured all documents sent to them always get to them (so far you send ur documents through the appropriate channels).

One way to know your documents are received by IRCC is through your Gcms notes. Everything regarding your application is captured in the gcms notes including the mails you send to them and also MPs enquiries to them concerning applicants delayed applications..
