Hello Bertram87

Your application is in the right direction..

According to what I saw in your GCMS notes, a request was made for your Medicals, but they didn't send you a medical request because you have passed the upfront medicals you submitted to them..

And as we all know, 90% of applications that gets Medical request ends with an Approval...

As far you meet other requirements(which I wanna believe you will meet), then this is an approval..

Peace

Its not necessary submitting all their international passports, their birth certificates are fine.. You can just submit the Bio data page of the Int. Passport of your sponsor....

But make sure you make mention of all of them in your IRCC forms, for future purpose..

This isnt a good move tho, how old are your Kids?

If they are not old enough to cater for themselves, do not take that route..

You can apply alone, get your study permit , and when you get to Canada you can apply for spousal permit for your spouse and visiting permit for your Kids...

Leaving your spouse and kids will serve as good Home Ties, not leaving only your kids behind..

Its not advisable to hide anything from Canada for future purpose..

So you can include theirs, but dwell more on the siblings in Nigeria and most especially your parents..

Remember its called Home tie and not foreign tie...

Peace
Yureyes:
I have siblings who are in Canada too.. including the birth certificates of all my siblings when some are there may not necessarily pass the home ties message you have stated above, unless you are advising me to include only the birth certificates of my siblings in Nigeria. I thought about this and that's why I asked if it was important to include it

Also, please has anyone with direct siblings in Canada applied for a study visa? I would appreciate if you can share insights on how you addressed issue of home ties. I couldn't find info about this scenario on the pages I read.

1. To strengthen your Home tie here in Nigeria.. To make the Visa officer know you actually have people here in Nigeria that you cant leave and run away and stay put in Canada... I will advise if you are single, you will need to submit them.. If you are married, you can just include your spouse documents, and if your Dad or mum is your sponsor, you will need to add theirs too...

2. Not compulsory but necessary..

Good day house.

I was going through the thread and previous post but I have a couple of questions. Please can anyone help me clarify?

What's the importance of including copies of International Passport Bio data page of Applicant’s Family Members OR Birth certificates (Parents and Siblings) to my application?

Secondly, I am going for my undergraduate, do I need to include a resume? When I have just my secondary certificate and I haven't been employed.

I need to know more about you to know if this is enough....

1.How old are you? (You don't need to drop your exact age if you not comfortable with it, you can just gimme a range)
2, What degree are you going to Canada to study?

I need answers to these questions before I proceed with my conclusion on your questions..

Hello Ayindesegun

Going for another Bsc is an almost impossible task but not totally impossible..

Going for a degree you already have doesn't show career progression which may lead to a refusal..

In ma 4 years on this thread, I only know of 2 applicants that got an approval for another B.sc, that was why I said its not totally impossible.. [/b]You have your reasons for going for another B.sc, if you make your SOP almost perfect with convincing explanations, then you may just be approved....

[b]Another factor to consider is your age, if you are above 25 years going for another B.sc, then your chances are less than 20%.. The two applicants I mentioned earlier were 22 and 23 years.
..

But like we all know, this Canada journey cant be predicted, for someone(Nigerian applicant) recently getting an approval without Medicals shows protocols can be broken and impossibility can happen....

if truly you have genuine reasons for going for another B.sc, then good luck with it..

Peace

Good evening everyone, I graduated earlier this year, and my certificate and Statement of Results isn't out yet.

2. Are you married, in addition with kids?
3. Do you have assets/ Properties here in Nigeria?
4. Do you have aged parents that depend on you and also younger siblings that depend on you?

Its not necessary informing IRCC of your deferment..

If your application is on the route of approval, then they will ask for your updated LOA..

So defer and get your new LOA.

Once that is ready, you don't even need to wait for IRCC to ask, just send them the new LOA and they will receive it with acknowledgment..

Hello Mr bollybeejay,
Yes I called you that
Please i want you to stop disguising using this second account of yours.
You have been looking for means to penetrate here to get clients and the best option was for you to create this acct claiming you got ppr then you used that to advertise yourself.

Ever since then , i noticed you would use this moniker of yours to advertise your real self which is the agent that you are, while inserting yourself alongside frankrobbn and justmellow in order to take people unaware.
Please stop this dubious act of yours.
Let people decide to use you themselves and not you forcing yourself down their throats via this moniker.
Your pattern of reply on this moniker is same with bollybeejay.
You run both moniker and you this mainly to advertise yourself.

Why the deceits? ??
If you need clients let them choose.
Not by cutting through corners and then inserting yourself always using this moniker.

You can upload through any of the mentioned IRCC centers Webforms.

if you send to a center that isn't handling your application, the IRCC center that receives your upload will re-direct it to the center handling your application....

But if you already have your GCMS notes, the office handling your application will be stated in your notes..

Nairobi Visa center handles 90% of Nigeria applications, so I will advise you chose Nairobi..

Hello patocypher

This is one of the disadvantages of using agents that are only interested in peoples money without any knowledge of this Visa application.. How will a so called agent not pay for Visa and biometric fee, what exactly did she apply for without paying for Visa fee? And according to you when you asked her, she still told you lies that she has paid it...

Please run far away from such agent, I just hope she hasn't done anything in your application that will warrant a ban for you..

I didn't see any attachment to your post though. And for the payment, its a thing you can pay yourself, I just hope you have your application details so you can do it yourslef..

If you are still having issues paying it, u can contact me for assistance..
