Hey Guys.... Please i need an urgent response for anyone who has knowledge of what i'm about to ask.


I have to send notarized copies of certificate to a body. And i really do not know what that means, and where i can get it done here in Lagos.

They said, only notarized copies would be accepted.


Pls i anticipate a response. Thank you.

to to ikeja high court(inside the compound) and ask the securities there that you want to notarize your documents (though the securities will want to cut ur head with price but no fear). How many documents do u intend doing? The more the volume the cheaper it gets. Bargain wella ooo cos I did about 6 documents for around 2k.

Sorry are you saying USA can contact Canada for my info?

I know Canada do contact USA.
My challenge is that I currently have an ongoing student application in Canada and I'm planning to apply to USA next month. Canada app processing will be 2 months by then. Is it possible for USA to contact Canada to verify details?

yes they both share info but if u haven't hidden any info concerning visa from them then u are good to go.

School is resuming September and my company business trip is 21st of this month. Canada is my first priority but at the same time I am scared loosing from both sides.

this is very tight bro, just like I said earlier it's ur call to make. if it's me I will have to withdraw the application and go for the training and if I can come back on time I apply for trv again. u can still apply for trv in June cos that's even when I intend applying by God's grace. That's my own take on this, but this isn't about me but about u

omoba26:
Thanks so much. Ok can the co sponsor state the amount he will support me with? Like 2M per year.

yes he must state the amount and let him go further to either pay the money into ur account or pay it as ur tuition fee to ur school

vee28:
I sent a mail yesterday and i got a reply from the embassy today that if i require my passport i have to withdraw my entire application. I don't know if i should do that because this is 7weeks and no medical mail yet. So confused right now.

hro with this the ball is in ur court, go with the one that's more important to u. when is ur school resuming? when are u suppose to for the training organized by ur company? the answers to the 2 questions above will help

omoba26:
Great mind in the house.

Please need advise. Can I use 2 sponsor for my student visa. My dad (Main sponsor), and a family friend (He's using is company account to support).

Can I refer to him as a family friend in the SOP I will write to describe our relationship.

Kindly advise.

Thanks

yes u can use 2 sponsors but they will write a letter of support each, ur family friend will have to convince the vo why he wants to spend on ur education and to show commitment let ur family friend pay ur tuition fee or let him pay the money he intend supporting u with into ur bank account (cos he is a 3rd party). As for ur dad he will also need a letter of support but his own won't be as tasking as that of ur friend since u being his son is enough reason to pay for ur education .

chiddyj:
pls oo biko! I am trying to apply for a 2 yr nursing bsc program in canada even though am a graduate in naija with an msc in public health. calgary, trent, memorial and saskatchewan unis are my identified target schools! pls I need as much info as I can get concerning these schools from current students or alumni of these institutions to help guide my application ! thanks in anticipation

let's jump to trv part, why Bsc when u already have an Msc ? I smell purpose of visit here o. u already have Msc why not go for Phd or maybe another Msc (atleast)? pls not Bsc as u will need to do lots of explanations to the vo and I can tell u it will be very hard to convince

Austinpee4:
One of the main perogative of the visa officer is to make sure the program choosen by applicants is right!

Once a VO picks up the application form, sees academic and work experience,that in itself has formed the greater part of the decision about the applicant's application.

They most likely will look at the applicant's primary intentions of studying in canada before the secondary parts begin to play out. Besides, what if you spend all the millions to acquire a masters of french lang in canada and the company does not send you there but rather employ a native french speaking national resident in your desired country(This will even be economically likely for any company to do),what then happens to the master you have gotten in canada? Use it in nigeria to get another job that is not likely?

Those visa officers see pass what we all submit as applications. Everything must add up clearly and explicitly.

that's true . it's well

What is your current work experience and what is your intended program?

Pls where is ur company based? also where did u apply from?

Austinpee4:
Haba! Brother! You sef check am nau.. If you were a VO, would you consider your move convincing enough?

French language is not a lingua franca in nigeria, your current work experience is not in line with your intended program, you don't have any experience in either french lecturing or translation. There is no way this one will fly! No amount of grammar put together in your SOP will salvage this one.

French language master or traning can easily be gotten in nigeria or the next francophone nation. No VO will see any need for you to pursue this at masters level especially in canada where you will be spending huge funds to obtain.

Anyway, you next move should be a masters in what you are currently doing. It will show progression careerwise.
Forget consistency with your undergraduate degree. It is inconsequential at this stage.

Your current work experience should be inclining towards making you a 'MASTER' in the field. All academic/career advancement MUST be in this light and nothing more.

All the same, i'll advice you get your immigration file(GCMS) ASAP. It will tend to the inconsistencies.
Once it is ready, people here will help you make a better re-application.

Regards.

what if her company have branches in some francophone contrite and her intention is to be posted to one of those branches? Well even with that she must have to explain all that in details in her sop

I think a well detailed sop would have helped, though I don't know how detailed ur sop was . Sorry for the delay

Hello everyone,

Actually I'm new here and this is my 1st post, I recently applied for a student visa some weeks back, what should I do next please and if there's probably any whatsapp group the admin can add me to for up-to-date info, I don't mind.
Thanks guys

First, all u can do now is PRAY and wait. secondly, I don't know of any whatsapp group for now. U can get all the up-to-date info here. just try and read past pages and u will be shock with the "massive" info u will come across then come back and ask any question u feel like

CanadianNurse:
Good morning house, ON THE ISSUE OF WRITTEN ASSURANCE FROM BANK THAT CIC REQUESTED FOR

Please who has gotten the written assurance? And what are the possible steps to get the written assurance

From my own interpretation CIC is asking for assurance that the money will be "ALLOWED" out of the country, they have no doubt that the money is available but the possibility of exporting the cash is what they want to confirm!

I once heard someone talk about bankers assurance on this forum! What's that? Will it fly in this case and how can one get it!

Please gurus we should deliberate on this an have a formula for tackling this on this forum for the sake of future applicants because this is reality! It is now a requirement!

Cc:@justwise @osemigho @austinepee4 @michv @folaroyal @thesoj @yemdogg @eraytee @penitential @mikymiko @mcobex @nelly28

I think it for us to show the bank the message from cic and let the bank include the assurance part in the reference letter they are suppose to give. Also I feel paying of tuition fee is very key to this except in a case where the school don't accept tuition fee until visa has been approved

einsteino:
in a situation were one has multiple sponsors, how would the sponsorship letter look like? do they each have to state what aspect of his expenses they are going to cater for and how much they would allocate for it? in my case I am thinking of using about 3 sponsors, my dad, uncle and cousin. I am having a hard time drafting this out.

all three sponsors will write their own letter of support stating how much they are giving (individually) for ur study

chigrad:
Pls how do I order for my GCMS file

copy @Genious000 so he can help you request for it for as low as $5.

obaxlove:
Countries like? Does USA and Australia share the same information with Canada

from my little understanding they do. why not try Germany or any other European countries (I know u won't like UK)

chigrad:
Documents submitted re:
Bsc cert: Chemistry
Employment letter ( 3 years work experience as a Business Development analyst)
Submitted pay-slips, land documents, very strong statement of account.
I applied for Post baccalaureate Diploma in Business Administration which is a two year program.i made payment for 1st semester. Used my spouse and landed documents as home ties.

I don't know why the vo thinks 3 years as a business development analyst isn't enough to show progression to your intended program. Pls gurus in the house can share more light on this

chigrad:
Got this from CIC. Would need professional advice as I intend to reapply. Thanks

sorry for the delay, pls what was ur intended program and previous program? try to share ur profile so gurus in the house can brief u on how to tackle the problem. But I feel maybe ur previous program isn't in line with ur previous. sharing ur profile will enable more people in the house to advise accordingly

chigrad:
Just got this from CiC. Would need professional advice as I intend to still reapply.

can't see what u got from cic

sundaydammy:
Thanks bro
That is what i'm telling everyone do it your self

am so sorry about it bro. Pls try and check other countries who most likely don't share info with canada and apply as I know u might not want to wait for canada for the next 5 years or so. It will all end in praise. Damn the agent that did this

Osemigho:
Damn! Your agent must have used fake documents with or without your consent. You definitely need to arrest them if it is without your consent. Sorry man.

The only option left is to challenge them to court. but you are likely not to win the case.

All the best, bro!

he can't challenge them bro cos cic was right, and I want to believe he didn't even state it that he was using an agent when he applied so he has no case against cic. I will advise u try other countries that don't share info with canny and let's see how it goes. I want to believe the agent is somewhere drinking his cold bottle of beer while leaving the applicant to suffer for his silly mistakes. NB: I will keep telling us to try no matter how busy we are to apply ourself and not leave it to any agent .

watlat4sure:
Hi,

westgermany:
Hello good people,pls I need advice on the following issues....

(1)My wife is d applicant & I want to stand as her sponsor...

(2) My acc do have about 5m tunrover monthly,now I intend to lodge about 7m in d acc as closing balance before printing the statement .

(3)Is 7m closing balance strong enough to defend her ,as it has been indicted in her offer letter estimated cost for a section is 8,000CAD?

(4)Is it compulsory for her to also present her statement of acc ?

Thank you great people...

from my calculation her tuition fee plus living expenses should be around #4.3mil so she is good to go. secondly she needs to include her statement of account as well

Arcayo:
Thanks bro.... i wont be going again the main mission has been achieved. we can relate better....just PM

Lol! typical naija man. Congrats bro

bibaxx:
Good evening house. I'm new on this forum. I recently gained admission towards September 2017. I want to ask if I should apply for my study visa and my husband's spousal open work permit at the same time or I should apply for only my study visa first, then apply for his own later. do you guys think it makes any difference? thank you.

Apply for urs first then after u have gotten urs he can now apply for his

Sugaro:
Pls what about an applicant whose sponsors have paid 2yrs tuition, transferred PART of d quoted amount and d individual has well over 10k CAD as balance In his(benefactor) SOA. Do u think VO will frown as to why the sponsor hasn't transferred all the quoted amount once? Though he intends to that later?

Frown ke! I think u are good to go bro

Benstone:
Hello house. I will love to share a bitter truth on this thread.
First. this is not a good time to apply for Canada TRV. Pls all applicants should be calm for a while until things changes.
secondly, If you can't exercise patience, please apply for Australia or any oda country.
Moreover, Things were not like before any longer , am talking of 2 years ago etc, when it's all about good news on this thread.
Good luck.

Bro what's ur basics for saying this is not the he rite tym to apply? well lots if people have been accepted and more will still he accepted so u shouldn't because some few people were refused say this isn't the rite time to apply . Pls don't mislead people here . Best of luck everyone and try to pay ur tuition fee atleast

mimshack2015:
Please, how many months left to resumption date before you deferred your previous admission? advise pls

2 months to resumption

maziude:
Sorry boss, if you cannot present your case yourself by writing your own SOP, how else do you expect to succeed in Canada if you eventually get a visa? Or you think you can also pay your way out during examination period too?

Everything is not all about money.

People here are willing to help you proofread your SOP should you need it. If that is not enough, you can also google sample SOPs or go through earlier parts of this thread to see other people's SOP for guidance.

I think we should desist from this mentality. We keep causing trouble for intending applicants by giving the VOs the chance to raise their bars.

I am sure some of the VOs frequent most of these forums especially the travel portions, imagine if one of them should stumble on your post, what do you think will happen to others who wrote their SOPs themselves?

I might not be making sense, but a word is enough for the wise...

It will end in praises for us all....

Peace...

you have spoken well bro, @expertman pls try and write urself then u can contact the gurus in the house so they can help u go through it. Nobody here knows you better than you know yourself so try and write it urself then gurus in the house can help u add one or two things. Google is ur friend bro and u can see samples when u search, u can even see some samples here on this thread so pls take advantage of that
