oluwaCanny:
sorry for ur delay..!!
Can you give a little brief profile about yourself touching on program u did during your UG studies, intended program and how it relates with ur UG and or current work.... i guess u pgd or pdc applicant

For travel history dont worry too much about that.

Also, order for gcms file as soon as possible.

Eraytee:
At bold, it's true. If program of study is not more than 6months it may not require medicals. If ur program is more than 6months, definitely a medical exercise has to be taken.

TO GOD BE THY GLORY. If you know that God's testimonies will never seize here and in your house hold please wherever you are help me praise the LORD. God did it this morning. I checked my CIC account and my heart was like gheghegheghegheghegh because I saw "A final decision has been made" check below. Gurus and everyone I could not scroll down for like 10min on till I gathered courage and behold I saw......Your application was approved. Check your messages below for details...... I just jump out of the office and hug the first person I saw and I started praising God. God is Awesome my people.

Lesson learnt is that,
1. first timer please endeavor to read past thread even when its lengthy try to read am as if you are jacking a course of 6 credit load. I did and it pays off now that I could seek for my admission and TRV myself with the help of God and The wonderful Gurus in the house.

2. After that please be sincere and have faith in God. Never think negative about your application.
3. Loads of Prayers and Fasting. as for me I fast every Tuesdays and pray with my wife everyday because it was on a Tuesday I submitted my TRV application.....Lol.

God is faithful.
Am really indebted to God and to the Gurus I met here. thanks @MichV, Yemmdogg, folaroyal, TheSoj, Mcowubaba(Even when you abandoned me in the middle of vetting my SOP. you are great Man.), Austinpee4, Nony1(Get ready to accept me as visitor.), Osemigho and the rest people in the house.
Special thanks go to YEMDOGG for vetting my Sop and I just did what you said and submitted once, I didnt even get back to you. Thanks alot and to My very good friend that introduced me to this thread. he is presently in Nova Scotia. God bless you all.

Expect my submitted documents soon.

Bro when did you submit your application and what method?


Was it online or Paper? and how many weeks?

Thanks

Awwww
congrats. I tap into your testimony

Eraytee:
there is no harm in that bro, go ahead

Eraytee:
well said bro, i still dont get that aspect very well why pple would just want to be in trouble, like u said the more reason they would dedicate 18-20wks reviewing our applications, they know the situation of Nigeria and they are aware of peoples desperation to leave the country. cox i dont know how someone can prove its innocent when u submit such doc. this is my advice though for any1 reading this, pls when it comes to financial docs DO NOT SUBMIT A FRAUDULENT ONE if they wont vet other docs but SOA is just too high a risk to take.

Please I have a question @folaroyal, michv, thesoj, osemigbo and all other gurus in the house, my proposed programme has already started since January 9, 2017 and I can't meet up with the winter admission again according to the school. How do I solve this issue? Should I apply to defer my admission and apply for study permit extension here in Nigeria?
Please, what's the best way to tackle this issue? Thanks



Which all TRV hopefuls success

WESTERNCR:
What a write up....kudos to you @thesoj. God bless you real good for this insightful write up. I am sure it will be of benefit to lots of ppu on this forum.

CarpricornPratt:
Use the Application online called 'PDF Merger' or any PDF merge app you like to merge your multiple PDF files... But merge them orderly.. For example anything that has to do with finances like your sponsors account and letter from your sponsor, bank statements, proof of land ownerships etc merge them as one file and upload under the section on your CIC page that says 'Proof of finance'.. If you want to upload Academic files like your Certificate merge it together with your admission letter from your canada school and upload it under 'Acceptance Letter'.. If you are doing upfront medical and police report merge it with your Letter of Explanation and upload it in that section.
In the end the VO will print them all out and assess them.

Mattezo:
Guys please any update??Kindly assist

Mattezo:
Hello guys am applying for my study permit online, and it's only one place I could upload my documents, I cannot upload multiples and I have several documents to upload, I heard you have to merge everything into one PDF, is this true? And besides won't it be confusing to the Visa Officials.. Please guys I really need your Input on this..
Those of you that have applied successfully online, Kindly clarify this

Thanks

Guys please say something, those of you that have applied online, how d you do it?

toluine56:
No. It isn't essential to write IELTS or whatever exam to get a job while studying. That's a totally wrong info.

Once you arrive Canada with your study visa, your work permit will be issued at Point of entry (POE) all things being equal.

Mattezo:
Hi Guys,

Am on the verge of submitting my application, am applying online. How do I submit the IMM294 form and the family information form? Have also scanned all documents, and also how to make payments, Guru in the house please kindly assist.

Thanks as always

dogice:
1) They aint talking about NYSC bro. Just put"NO" for the military part.
2) For the funds available for your stay, it depends on how much you have on your statement of account. But you could estimate your living expenses to be $1000 per month times the length of your program (in months) plus your tuition. That should be the minimum amount you should put. And you can always go higher.

Or

You could just go with what the school sent to you. I'm pretty sure they sent you the Fees and Expenses for a year. So you could just put that amount times the number of years of your program.

Mattezo:
Hello Guys,

Please I need your input,am filling the 1MM1294 form and there are some questions I need clarification on

1. Did I serve in any military or any service obligation? are they taking about Nysc??..
2. They asked for my tuition, room and board? and funds avilable for my stay?? what should i put? should i stay any amount of dollars there

Please kindly assist as always.

thesoj:
I get your points and you are right that one could choose a PGD over a masters if it offers better post-graduation opportunities. Having said that, I'd suggest you see things from the VO's perspective: PGD admissions are sooo easy to obtain unlike masters admissions, so desperate visa applicants are likeliest to go the PGD route but not as much the masters route.

Last year, a much higher fraction of PGD applicants got visa denials compared to masters applicants. Admittedly, this may be due to the possibility that PGD visa applicants are more likely to put together worse visa application documents than masters visa applicants (if we can infer from their lower CGPA and/or rush to leave Naija) OR it could be due to the likelihood that PGD applicants are more likely to pick courses that are incompatible with their prior education.

To be objective, a PGD is not equivalent to a masters, a masters is a superior academic qualification. Btw, I have nothing against PGDs (I have a sibling finishing a PGD in Canada and it has served him well)... just being objective here.

PS: You can study computer security in a masters program, but it would be a specialization under a computer science masters program. It also likely would be more foundational and theoretically comprehensive than what you'd get in a PGD program on computer security.
