Thanks for your response sir, I can show source of funds e.g pension,gratuity,insurance,etc
Also, I'm opting for an undergraduate programme as i finished sec schl just a few years tho i deferred my UG studies here in naija i do have a diploma certificate which can be related to my proposed program of study.
More of your advice needed sir, thanks alot GOD bless you sir.

u are good to go, but u will have to explain every educational gap between when u finished ur secondary school, ur diploma and now that u have admission to study in Canada. A well structured sop will work. Gurus in the house should help out on this pls

Lagos2canna:
The money was in his account but he stated that he paid the tuition fee in the sponsorship letter....Bro if he needed to send the money into my account that means the account will to be a domiciliary account or will naira account work and what if the closing balance is small

he will send it to ur naira account cos he is a third party(not ur parents, siblings or spouse)

Moley22:
Goodafternoon everyone, I have a question bothering me hence I've been unable to submit my visa app yet for Jan2018 ...I've just been depressed and using this forum to ease my mind by frequently learning...
1.Please, Does my sponsor need to transfer funds to my account and still print a statement of his account or I'll be the one to print the statement after he transfers even if he will eventually have a low balance after the transfer .. (Note:Na my own money i send to am because he broke presently now bt na rich man tho#big salary#)i have his supporting documents cos he's my guardian also

2.If I'm to use a co-sponsor,how do i do this, does he also have to transfer money to my account too...
Lets say my tuition and living expenses sum to 18kCad, does he have to transfer some funds to my account... Preferably another bank account or same...
I know my questions seems odd, The thing is i have enough funds to cover my undergrad studies and even that of my siblings but the funds are/were paid to me as my late parent's death benefit hence i can't present myself as sponsor because i don't work, still a kid tho
Please Beautiful people someone gimme a breathe of fresh air
Austinpee4, Canadiannurse,Guru and aspiring gurus your suggested inputs will be much appreciated... And to the TRV expectants may God cause you to smile and bring your Canadian dream as mine to reality soonest... God bless y'all

1. your uncle should pay the money into ur account and both of u will submit ur respective bank statement.
2. in using a co-sponsor all u need is another letter of support from the co-sponsor and he/she will also show commitment by paying either ur tuiton fee or pay his own support fund into ur account.
NB: since u say u don't work, when did u roundup ur last school? Cos u will need to explain the large chunk of cash in ur account(apart from the one ur sponsor's will send to u). My advise will be:
1.Since u have enough to carter for ur tuition, living expenses and also carter for ur siblings I will tell u to provide proof that the money was from ur parents benefits(it will act as source of fund).
2. If u trust ur uncle enough with money and u have another bank account(the one that doesn't have much money in it ) u can transfer ur tuition and living expenses + extra cash to ur uncle then he will later pay the said cash into ur other account (that has little money in it), after paying it into ur account let him write a letter of support stating the amount he sent to ur account and why he is sponsoring u (he can tell the vo ur parents made him who is is today and since they are no more it is his duty to make sure u have the very best education).

Lagos2canna:
There was proof with certificate of birth,change of name and office papers.

Did ur uncle pay the living expenses into ur account? Cos he is a third party and the vo will want him to pay the living expenses into ur account before u apply. But all the are guess work, only ur file will explain in details. Pls answer my above question

Icandor:
Thanks a lot Bro. I wish the best for everyone here. It shall end in praise.

Amen oo

I got 2 pm from @ozzy2 and @chimxxl and I have replied both. hope no p bros?

Icandor:
Just got my medical call today.
Eligibility status is that we are still reviewing ur eligibility

Congrats bro, ensure u do ur medical asap (if posible 2moro mrn). I smell approval very soon

raptorakhigbe:
hello everyone I got my passport today and my visa was refused,it was accompanied with a letter from Cic that spelt out the reason for refusal
first is I don't have proof of sufficient funds,my dad is my sponsor n he included a statement of account of 5million monthly income

second is I didn't satisfy them that I will leave after my school

travel history
purpose of visit..

IS IT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO REAPPLY FOR SEPTEMBER INTAKE? IS THERE STILL TIME?

Sorry for the delay bro. Pls don't rush into reapplying, defer ur admission now to the next available date for ur program ( tell ur school u were denied visa) then order for ur GCMS note, after getting it u can now restratigize ur plans

horluwahseye:
Hey guys, pls, what's the difference between been refused and been delayed?

And if delayed, will a message be sent also to show visa been delayed?

Thanks

They are both the same. Yes a mail will be sent to u to that effect but if u have linked ur application u can be checking ur account from time to time as cic sometimes don't send a mail notifying u of an update early.

jnyuwa02:
Thanks, do they have Children practice or any such caliber of cheap services in Abuja?

I don't know, I live in lagos and I haven't had time to check the approved cic clinics in abuja

Ceslause:
April 18th. Apart from May 10th when they asked me to send proof of my past employment, no news till date. I pray APPROVAL will fall on all of us TRV hopefuls, Amen.

Bro ur application is still within the processing time (13 weeks) so be patient and prayerful. We will hear positive news from cic soon, God's willing.

jnyuwa02:
Is there a difference in services to warrant such wide disparity in pricing? Is the Children's Practise for children literally?

Lol! Children practice isn't for children alone. For people doing medical on request they prefer IOM cos they said it's faster (they send result to cic within 2 days if am not mistaken) while children's practice takes around 5 days or so. I always advise people going for upfront medical to use children's practice as its cheap and since cic won't be needing the medical details that urgent. NB: I think the difference is just few days

Sugaro:
Hmmm,
Dear VO(s), it has come to our notice that online applicants are scarcely being attended to, receive the fire to approve our applications now in Jesus name Amen.
May our applications mk a swift jump from background check to approval Amen.
We are joyously waiting for the approval because it must come as lines are falling unto us in Pleasant places.
May this forum be filled with testimonies from everyone waiting cos our blessings and testimonies are long overdue Amen.
See u in canny

AMEN O!

jnyuwa02:
Why is it 40k in Abuja and 28k in Lagos?

IOM is 40k while children's practice is 28k

CPA01:
OK. This week is our week!

AMEN

CanadianNurse:
Quick question: What message does it show when you track your passport and it's ready for collection?

My passport got dispatched on the 06th of July....

Cc:Markab

bro you can go and collect your passport any moment from today, it is with them now

debris:
People that have done upfront medicals when going so you carry any document along as i want to go for upfront medicals this morning.

Just go with ur international passport, 1 copy of the data page of ur international passport, then passport photograph(1 copy will do but to be on a safe side u can go with more )

Austinpee4:
Bro, the bold is actually the issue with your application. You know, going from an english speaking country to study english in canada(even prior to your program) may not be acceptable by most visa officers. They would rather expect that if indeed you need to improve your english, attempt TOEFL(test of english as a foreign language), IELTS(International english language testing system) to fulfill the condition of your program before you begin the undergraduate you eventually want to pursue.

So it will be imperative that you put this at the back of you mind in your next attempt. See if you can fulfill the english condition of your program and get direct admission into the program before you reapply. They will not believe you want to study genuinely going through the ESL no matter the duration. Your english can be improved here in nigeria through the test i mentioned to give you direct admission.
So please, attempt it from here, fulfill your condition and get your admission before you apply again.

Regards.

well said, MUN is one of the schools that aren't too strict when it comes to English language(when Nigeria is concern). I got my admission there without toefl, all he need do is get a letter from his secondary school stating he was taught in English Language during his secondary school days and MUN will accept it. Thank God he is going for an undergraduate program

Frankrobbn1:
Well, I had a conditional acceptance letter into ESL (English as a Second language) program which runs for 12 weeks, which was attached to my undergraduate Acceptance letter indicating that after my completion of ESL program, I can now enroll with my degree program in the school.

Area of study wasn't specified, but in my SOP I explained to them that after my ESL program, I will enroll into my undergraduate degree program in computer sciences which is the faculty of science i was accepted by the school.

I also attached that I have work in a company as a system Administrator and together with my 6 months diploma certificate award in desktop publishing, which I used to gain a job after my secondary school education.

From ur profile I will advise u apply directly for ur undergraduate program instead of going through another English language course to get admitted. Nigeria is an English speaking country so u don't need any "pre-undergraduate English " course to get undergraduate admission. Just get a letter from ur secondary school stating u were taught in English language when u schooled there and u will be good to go. When I applied to MUN I was asked about proof of English language and all I did was go to my polytechnic to get a letter to that effect and thank God I got the admission. NB: Go to ur secondary school, get the letter and send it to MUN using ur secondary school's name as the sender

Lagos2canna:
Hello house i got a delay mail from CIC yesterday based on the following. I submitted on 30/May/2017 trough paper route.

1. Pursuant to Section 219 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulation, I am not satisfied that
you:
A. have sufficient and available financial resources, without working in Canada, to pay the tuition fees for the course or program of studies that you intend to pursue.

2. You have not satisfied me that you would leave Canada at the end of your stay. In reaching this decision, I considered several factors, including:
A. Purpose of visit
B. Travel history

I paid my school fees for 1 year which was $3000 but i paid $5000, the receipt was included.
I submitted a bank statement of 6m from my uncle in 4 different account.
I also proved relationship
I filled my brother's address in Canada in the family form.
Intended program M.ED

I am confused presently don't know what went wrong.

sorry for the delay bro, kindly share ur full profile let's see(like ur previous program, where u work now, all documents u submitted....)

Frankrobbn1:
@Austinpee4, @Mcboex, @Canadian Nurse
@Oseimgho

please i was refused visa yesterday based on the following. I submitted on 31/May/2017.

1-)insufficient fund and available resources
2-)Purpose of visit
3-)Travel history

please i want to apply for GCMS note. I want you guys to clarify me, whether I'm to fill the GCMS note form first before applying or I'm i to pay first before filling the form?

I hope to hear from you guys soon

Am so so sorry about this news bro, may God see us all through this race.
1. how much was in ur account? did u pay ur tuition?
2. what is the relationship btw ur proposed program, ur current place of work and ur previous program?
3. that obe isn't much of an issue.
Gurus in the house can explain better on how to order for ur GCMS note . Sorry once again my MUN bro

bbclue:
Okay. .......Please can I use another uncle that have 10million. ...to be on a safer side

You can use both uncles as sponsor and co-sponsor, but since they are third party (not ur parents or siblings) then they will need to pay ur tuition fee and also put ur living expenses into ur Nigeria bank account to show commitment

ladyvan88:
Applied May 19, paper route, medicals asked for June 20 and done June 21 with email received June 23 indicating forwarded to visa office, LLM, Dalhousie University
Approval July 7. God has been awesome.

Congratulations sis, may God continue to perfect what He has started in our lives. Pls book ur flight asap as the price is going up by the day. Congrats once again

Austinpee4:
Well, if IRCC wanted a letter of assurance for tuition, it would have been spelt out. Remember, she also showed SUFFICIENT AVAILABLE funds from her uncle meaning funds are available aside the NDDC scholarship.

So providing only the assurance letter from NDDC will mean there is actually no funds from uncle as claimed and that could affect the overall credibility of sponsor and ability to live up to the responsibility of sponsorship. I'll still suggest, @pureRuby find a way to atleast pay the first year tuition as instructed or have funds in canada atleast. The application is 85-90% sure at it stands now, anything to make it a 100% will be best. I just wish she can find funds to do this before the duration expiration.

I get it now, I just pray she sort it out asap cos I know she is almost at the finish line. May God take control

shilam:
. yes I think so....

pls don't mind @natty , he is one of the gurus in UAE ooo

Austinpee4:
@pureRuby,

Just as most people have adviced, see how you can get funds and proceed as instructed by the embassy. Since you were asked to pay your fees and give the assurance for living expenses., do exactly that. Like one moniker mentioned, they know of government funded scholarships and it's inadequacies.

Find a way to transfer your tuition to your student account. Find out from your school if the contracted western union global solution or other third parties for international transfer or get the school's account to transfer your first year tuition. Some schools allow international transfers to students' account and deduct tuition and other fees from there at the beginning of each academic sesssion.

All the embassy wants is that funds is domiciled in canada .Anything other than this may not be good.

Your application approval is imminent and it's in your hands.

All the best.

bro what if she doesn't have any other means of raising the money to pay while she waits for nddc to pay? I feel if she can't get that she should just ask nddc for another letter reassuring cic that they will make the payment as soon as he gets she gets her trv. I also want to use the case of schools that doesn't accept tuition fee until trv has been approved, cic understands that as long as the school writes a letter to that effect and also the applicant can get a letter of assurance from his/her bank (sponsor ) that the funds will be transported as soon as the applicant gets his/her trv. NB: From the little I know I think she doesn't have any other way to raise the tuition fee.

PureRuby:
My brother don't doubt the line.
That's the rule of the new MD and his team.

NDDC has payed the complete 30k USD plus N500k take off fee to the first batch who travelled earlier.
2nd batch has just been payed N500k take off fee and about to be paid tuition and upkeep.

They pay at once now, it's just the condition of travelling first before they can pay.

bro if u can't get money elsewhere to pay ur tuition urself while u repay the person when NDDC pays u then I will still advise u get an asurance letter from NDDC stating clearly that their new rule will only allow them to pay ur tuition fee when u arrive Canada. NB @ALL what happens in a situation when some schools don't accept tuition fee until one's trv has been approved? in that case a letter from the school stating clearly that they won't accept tuition until approval of trv and cic will accept it that way. NDDC is well recognized by cic and for the application to have gone this far it means cic recognize NDDC. That's my little take on this

PureRuby:
.

My dream of studying in Canada manifested by the scholarship i got not that I am from a buoyant family.
I added the award letter to my application bit nddc is yet to pay as their new rule is that they won't pay you until you travel.
Now how do i travel if i don't get my trv?
Do you think a reassurance letter from nddc will doyje trick

since it's scholarship u don't need to pay any money into ur account, all cic needs now is a reassurance letter from ur sponsors and u will be fine. Ur trv has been approved bro, just get the reassurance letter from ur sponsors and u will get ur trv

debris:
Feeling sad didn't know about it, As am applying today what do you think should i leave it and go for medicals today while I go to vsf Monday? Am considering based on time frame days are going.

Yes try and do medical today and go for application on Monday

CanadianNurse:
I did check... Thats what I normally use so it was the first I checked sef... Around 650k....airfrance too

ok bro, maybe u try other African airlines just as some people in the house have suggested

debris:
Morning fam those that submitted in abuja vsf office how much did u pay and after the biometrics what am I to do again can i do Medicals as well today.

Hope am not late all documents ready and sealed with God's favour.

if u intend doing upfront medical then do it a day b4 u go to vfs to apply cos u will have to also submit the documents the hospital will give to u. as for the application cost just go with atleast 56k. u will do biometric the same day u go to apply(it's part of the process for paper route), so after u must have applied wait for a day or two to link ur application online then wait and pray for updates from cic

Mysine:
One quick stupid question:
