I haggled my way here in Jos down to 10k. They do the police certificate here for everyone at 20k. I came with an American charm and accent and they were all drooling to siphon me of my my hard earned dollars, not knowing like Abracadabra, the more you see the less you understand. I gave them a good talk and before they know it, they were my friends and agreed to my pitch. I am convinced that you can haggle your way down there in Alagbon to let's say 3k down from 5k.
Lol! I actually did mine for 3k and I have taken more than 3 persons there for 3k as well but some people don't know how to bargain so I always tell them it shouldn't exceed 5k

This may sound trivial to some, but for me, it's a serious question:

Please should I pack my ankara materials? How easy is it to find tailor/seamstress in Cannyland?
The cost of ticket these days will not permit me to come home soon and I don't have people that fly back and forth.
Pack things you won't easily find in Canada(Ankara inclusive ). I will advise you try and sew your natives here cos it will be very expensive to sew in canada(you can give more than 1 tailor the job to do to make it faster)

Thank you guys
You can travel now and be in Canada till January (but that's if you have enough money ) or you decide to wait till November/December before traveling

@vanod, @bbbclue, my guy @mcobex and other delayed applicants, sorry about the outcome of your application. Whenever there is a will, things will always get better.
One thing i have noticed about this canadian study permit journey is that it truly test your determination in dispair. NEVER let the outcome leave you down, get up, dust off, look into what might have gone wrong or what better strategy to use. Don't do things out of emotions!

A refused application means one or few aspects of the application need fixing. You still have same chance to get it like every other person whose application was approved once the re-application is fixed. God's favour, mercy and grace isn't any less for you. It's equal for us all. Approved or 'delayed'.

Last week, i saw a refusal letter of all reasons ticked. Thank God yours isn't in all ramification meaning there is still a great chance once things are sorted.

Sooner, the results and accomplishment you would have achieved later on will really explain these obstacles on the path. It is usually about what lies ahead of you! Never give up!
Thanks my personal person, God's plan for us supercedes ours so no shaking. We dey come for una back soon by God's grace

Is there any case of approval of TRV after 2 delays
Yes there has been, some people have had up to 4 delays before getting approval. Past delays have no negative effect on the present application as long as the applicant tackles the problem and state previous delays

Congratulations in advance, bro. You're only delayed and as you know, DELAY IS NOT DENIAL

You will surely testify soon!!! Same as @Bbbclue, Vanod and other people that were delayed recently.

"These things I(God) plan won't happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, do not despair, for these things will surely come to pass. Just be patient! They will not be overdue a single day! Habakkuk 2:3 (LB)"
Thanks very very much, I appreciate. GOD IS IN CONTROL

How long does gcms note take to be reached
It takes around 30 days to arrive Nigeria and cost $23 but if you have someone in Canada he/she can apply for you and it will cost you just $5 (and the time for the person to get and scan to you won't be up to 30 days)

good morning house, please I ve been greatly bordered and after long argument with my husband I decided to come ask our expert here, below is the mail I got from the school I applied for and the part tuition fee payment is $2200 but my husband said its after paying that I will still be to pay $15000 before applying for visa. I read this mail to him over and over again but he insisted the agent told him that wouldn't b all the payment before visa application, Now he is considering putting the whole study visa process to a stop with the reasons that the fee payment of almost #4million will affect the budget of #13million he kept for this process and also the chances of getting the visa with 3kids is slim and he cant keep his kids with anyone to raise even when I told him the kids will b with my mom till they join me. he is not based here, I don't want relent at all, I'm considering trying Canada express Entry but I hear its for people with skilled job. please gurus in the house read the mail and enlighten me please, do u pay full tuition fee before visa application?

Hello and thank you for
your application to Fanshawe College.
Your application has been
assessed and I’m happy to tell you that you are
admissible to your program of choice.

Before a Letter of
Admission can be issued, we require a $2200.00 tuition
deposit. This deposit is refundable, less $250.00
should your visa be denied.

Alternatively, you may
choose to contact one of our authorized agents:
Though I am not an expert but let me try my best, paying full tuition isn't compulsory before applying for your visa but most times applicants pay just to make the vo feel relax as regards funds but since your school state that you should pay $2000 it means you should pay just the $2000 (paying full tuition fee doesn't guarantee you visa).
Secondly explain to your husband that you will like to apply alone and as soon as you get your visa and arrive Canada you can now apply for your children to come be with you (you won't be away from them for long) cos if you include them in your application that will require additional cash for each of them and from the look of things you are looking at ways to use the available funds well.

Long post.
It was actually a long trip expecially the time spent in Casablanca (7hrs) doing nothing but as a sharp guy I started jacking some mails sent from school, my tablet couldn't connect to the free WiFi, thank God I was with@ Ejaloni (used his phone to chat up my wife and family) and Mr Smith but Mr Smith left for Vancouver through London. Royal Air Maroc isn't bad at all. After 7hrs stop over at casablaca , we boarded again to our first port of entry into Canada (Montreal). The journey took 7hrs 20mins to get to Montreal. Be ready to fill a declaration form on the plane before you reach Montreal, please always travel with a pen very important. Another observation is that be simple in your dressing especially your footwear becos if you put on big shoes at each point from Nigeria immigration you will be checked and you will be required to pull them off. Very stressful.
Back to the port of entry: so sweet. Canada fine share.
Officer: bonjour monsuier
Me: Bonjour sir, I don't speak French.
Officer: smile oh sorry. Why are y here?
Me: study
Officer: where please
Me: University of Saskatchewan
Officer: to study what?
Me: Mechanical Engineering
Officer: first degree? I said No
Officer: have you been working as an engineer before? I said yes
Officer: how much cash do you have? I declared
Officer: any food stuff?
Me: yes ooooo. What? Garri, fish......He asked smoke or dry? I said smoke.
Officer: go to immigration 2 for your study permit.

Study permit collected. I can also work on and off campus. Please bring two rounded pin plug charger and a 1 rounded and 2 flat pin plug charger so you don't get bored at any airport of stop over.

More update on the way.
Thank God for journey mercies

Application Approved!

Exactly 12 weeks after I submitted (I told God that 12 represents completion (12 tribes of Israel & the 12 disciples) and that my eligibility and background must be complete today, even though my eligibility was not being reviewed as at this morning)

Application Date: 5th June, 2017
Approval Date: 28th August, 2017

I sent mails to Accra Like four (4) times reminding them of my resumption date and that my degree requirements can only be fully achieved if I start my program in the fall term.

But above all it was God’s mercy that gave me this approval.

I fasted and prayed, and enjoined my fathers in the faith to remember me in prayers.

I’m still coming with a comprehensive story as I always do, especially with Rocorleone my Guy. As its being said on this forum, you can actually make the best of friends on this forum – God really made our case different.

In the meantime, attached were the documents I submitted. It was written in PanRoman hence i couldn't copy it here but all the same i think being in jpeg is even kind of better as you can easily download for easy referencing,



….they that sow in tears shall reap in Joy!!, He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him Ps 126: 5 – 6.

I sowed in tears and this was God’s personal word to me.

Thank you Jesus once again.

It ended in Praise

More TRV approvals IJN

Good evening everyone
I really appreciate the contributions of seasoned members here and those who came back to give good testimonies. I'm yet to read all the pages on this thread but I'm still on the first few pages. I had to rush here because what I've read so far strikes fear into me. Please I crave tour indulgence as I want you guys to please help me out on this dilemma giving me fears.
I graduated in 2014 with a 2:1 in Political Science. I am planning on applying to University of Saskatchewan for an MA in Political Studies and Memorial University for an MSC in Political Science. The dilemma now is that I've seen many people talking about letter of reference from their workplace but I've not really worked in a workplace in the real sense of it. My jobs since graduation has been using my skills as a freelance writer and tutor to make cash through hustling. How do it go about this?
Secondly, I want to use my brother as my sponsor and he's based in the UK, how plausible is that? Can I also use a non-family member? Should I start my application before or after my admission application.
Thanks in anticipation of a timely and favourable response.
First you will have to show proof of your work (books)especially if they are online (give the link ) or any other proof that you are truly a writer. Also make sure the your books are related to your course.
Secondly, you can use your brother as your sponsor or even a non-family member but they(especially the non-family member) will have to show commitment by paying your tuition fee or pay the said amount into your bank account.
Thirdly, you need to get an offer before you can apply for trv. So first apply to schools for admission and once you get it you can now put the required documents together and apply for trv (temporal resident visa).
NB: Ensure you submit your own statement of account since you have been working for about 3 years now
