Go on google. There are different ones. I used CAIPS.
When you google just type order GCMS notes and you will see options. Open each, read their offers an d make your choice.

wealthmiq:
Can someone please help me with the site to order for gmcs note? PS. I don't have anyone in Canada

Your property can serve as an asset. I believe you can add it to show as asset. And then you can also mention it on your SOP as a future proof of funds since you will be letting it out within the shortest possible time after completion. You can further explain using a timeline (For instance: at the moment, the property has been roofed, and in the next couple of months electrical and plumbing fixtures will be placed in the apartments, then painting and finishing will commence shortly after) something like this. I have noticed that these VOs like explanations with timelines and dates. Shows you are on top of your game.
Anyways the decision lies with you eventually.

Keep the faith... It will end in praise

hiambenson:


I also have a 4 unit of 2 bedroom flats house which is nearing completion but I didn't add it as proof of funds because it's not fully ready to be occupied by tenants. Do you think I should have also added this? If yes, what purpose will it serve since it has only been roofed and not fully ready for tenants to start residing in it?

It is good you have ordered your GCMS notes right away, I will suggest that while waiting start to gather your documents to address the things being stated as reasons for the denial. Then start to work on your SOP... build it within this period of waiting.
As for increasing your money in the account, do you think 10m is okay? Why don't you add a sponsor as advised by someone earlier. It may go a long way to help. I know you did not say anything about home ties, hence I believe that is strong for you. Hence if you have a family, how do you prove they will be catered for while you are in Canada. (I am assuming you are male)

If you feel you cannot wait for The GCMS notes, then yu can reapply, so long as you think you can fully address everything raised in the refusal letter.

Keep the faith...

hiambenson:



I will increase the money in my account to 10m or thereabout. I've also made tuition deposit. I just ordered for GCMS but the one month period seems to be too far if I must say considering my resumption date. Do you think I should just increase the funds in my account and reapply without waiting for the GCMS note?

So sorry about this. Order your GCMS notes and see what went wrong and try again.
If you are self sponsored, I think 8m is a wee bit low for tuition, living expenses combined.
Also what course were you going for?
Kindly share your timeline, and what you were going to study and let's see how the house can help.

Keep the faith... it will end in praise.

hiambenson:
I just got a denial email, guys. The reason they gave was based on travel history and based on personal asset and financial status. I'm self sponsored and I have over 8m in my account which covers both tuition and living expenses for PGC. I also have landed properties which I furnished them with the survey plans. Not sure what went wrong. I'm about to order GCMS notes and reapply asap because I'm supposed to resume by Sep. Do you guys think I would be able to meet up? Kai, I was very optimistic eh! Notwitstanding, I'll reapply.

Just go to IOM. 21st is still closer than June.

Tlontin:

Is it possible to go without appointment? Like go early morning without appointment. Qlife said June while IOM is 21st.

So sorry about this. Please do not despair, you can always try again.

wealthmiq:
Just got a refusal email.

Congratulations sis.This is great!!!

After I was done with high school in 2015 I got admitted to a private uni the following year. It happened that I was not given my desired course coupled with other reasons i had to change. Then last year I applied for a US student visa. The first one was weird considering that I was hardly asked any question and those that went before me(long line oh)got refused aside like 3 people which were of old age. Then the second interview this year January went well but I was given a wrong bank statement. It was quite frustrating but didn’t let it stop me from applying for a Canadian trv. Then d following month I proceeded to submit my application at Lagos vfs. Then first week of April I got my medical request which I did at IOM. After which I checked my account some days later and saw medical passed. Then I got my correspondence on the 23rd. I was thinking I’d get my approval d next day oh but it was still processing and my Uni was to resume in May, so I just decided to give them a week. After no reply i sent emails to Kenya and Lagos telling them I’ll soon resume and pleaded to them for an update. Then on d 7th of May I got an email saying they have finalised my application. I logged in straight and saw final decision has been updated to approved with my counterfoil details below. I was really happy. Then some hours later I got an email from vfs that my passport is ready for collection. I was surprised cause I thought it’ll take some days. I went there this morning with my mom and picked it up in a sealed brown envelope. Opened it and d first thing I saw was d page which my visa was issued on. I just put my trust in God from the beginning and prayed over it with my mom(God bless her) and God answered our Prayers.




I didn’t know about this thread on nairaland till like 2 weeks after I submitted. Seeing d documents some submitted and I was like what?? I just knew i had all d CIC documents on d website, the financial documents my mom listed out,my educational documents and d sop which my sister recommended. I wasn’t able to link my application online for about 5 weeks after trying severally. It really bothered me but I just tried to keep calm. I messaged CIC and Kenya. Got replies from them but it wasn’t d answer tho. Not so long after that my medical mail came in with my app number and UCI which I used to link my profile online. Not to mention in my sop I didn’t explain d study gap(Don’t try it oh)cause I didn’t know how I’d explain it well to the VO in a way that won’t end up complicating things(had it typed down already a night before submission)so I just decided to leave it out but made sure I listed out what I did after high school in my study permit questionnaire(Attached a letter from where I was taking my computer courses). After my Medicals was passed I just had more faith that it will end in praise and thankfully it did. Like I said before I just prayed over and over. With God all things r possible!


Will be Travelling to British Columbia this week.





To all trv hopefuls I hope God will see you through.

Wow! See approval rain!!!
Congrats to you...

Wow!
I never come across such a sweet Gcms notes before.

Go to Yaba. Around the rail way line, you will see some sheds, and stores with clothes hanging. They are usually fairly used and vary from top grade ones to low grade ones.
The jackets don't usually come cheap. The traders will charge you cos they know you have need of it. But try not to let them rip you off.
Good luck!!

Refusal Set Aside: 11th of October 2018 (Online Status reverted back to "Submitted"
Passport Request: 15th April 2019
Approval: 16th April 2019

My VISA journey has been rough with many twists and turns. Between October 2018 and December 2018, I got 2 LOA request and 3 SOA request from IRCC. They even requested for an unusual SOA format called "My Bank Statement with ticket ID". And after providing it in December they went mute until I aligned and adopted the "Austacus formula" on April 13th before I received passport request on the 15th.

All along I kept praying and never lost faith. I need to give special shout out to @galala123, a "brother from another mother", I owe him a lot for is support, encouragement and advice. We whined, complained, analyzed and rejoiced together. I also want to thank @jnyuwa02, I wonder why he has been silent recently but then he reached out to me and offered his support. Also special mention to my MAY/JUNE/JULY family, Makano, Austacus and 042viber12.

I almost forgot my main man "Lemia". He was the person that first took me by the hands and show me the way. We will definitely rock University of Waterloo together.

To all hopefuls, it shall all end in praise.

Congratulations!!

To every hopefuls don’t give up on your dreams.

To all May June and July applicant slide in my pm, I have a secret for you guys.

I actually went to anifowoshe on Wednesday. The person I met just like me at first sight and he told me the secret then he prayed for me and wish me good luck. I may go back there and tell him thank you.

This visa suffered me.
The day I did my biometrics, VAC was still working till 8 pm that day, I left home around 7 and left VAC 7 pm. I was sleeping on steering... I almost had an accident that very day but God came through for me. So whenever I remember that day and imagine why my visa is still pending, tears will drop from my eyes and I will look up to God.

I contacted more than 150 MPs (senators) in Canada then on Wednesday I gathered mind and drive straight to Anifowoshe.

I was in the movies watching “Hotel Mumbai” as soon as they finished the movie, I saw the alert in my email address.

I will recommend you guys to watch that movie and thank me later.

God is indeed faithful
Nara ekele chineke.
May June July, don’t lose hope, your visa is sooner. Don’t forget to hit my pm.
“God answers prayers”

God bless everyone that is reading this my success story. Whatever you ask from God, don’t give up, he knows your worries. He will answer your prayer.

“When God wants you to grow, he makes you uncomfortable”

Please don’t mind my typo error. I am so eegxited.

Please has anyone ever encountered the term Info sharing: system error on their GCMS notes?
I ordered GCMS notes and the bolded was written under eligibility section
Please what does that even mean?
Please i need help. This was in the GCMS notes from my first application last year which was denied.
Now my second application is at its 8 month now and i am yet to get a response from CIC.
The second GCMS notes says application in progress, but nothing has been done on it. Is it being affected by the Info sharing: system error

Someone please help meeee.

Thank you.

You have a point, cos I saw NZL on my GCMS notes and wondering where that came from. I am aware of US and CAN, but did not know all these NZL or AUS until I saw my GCMS notes.

Austacus:


Bro, please semme a pm, ain't proving anything to you on public again.. cause I don't get paid here. I will show you with 6-7 evidence in Gcms notes and then for the treaty, you can check it yourself on Google it is readily accessible
(Canada/U.S. Information Sharing Treaty Summary. On December 13, 2012, Canada signed a Treaty with the United States of America (U.S.) to enable systematic immigration information sharing between the two countries on third-country nationals).

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/transparency/access-information-privacy/privacy-impact-assessment/us-canada-information-sharing-treaty.html

Then you come back here and apologize to me (I explained based on facts and sources not just forum speech).
No offense given or taken.
Please send me a pm, I am waiting to prove AUS, NZL and the UK.

I wish i could do that, but that is the problem. The relevant part will be notes after the whole document. But there are no notes. Status still says in progress. The whole doc is 43 pages long, and i do not know which part exactly to screen shot and upload.

joo2018:
Why don't you snapshot the relevant parts, blank out your personal details and attach to a post here.

Thank you.
It is 43 pages long, and there are no notes per say. Which page do i post exactly? I cannot post the 43 pages, cos it will be cumbersome. Hence i wanted to send it via PM to enable the person see exactly.

Bracha:
Please post a clear copy of your gcms note here, redacting all sensitive information. We'll be waiting.

Thank you. Will send it to you in a PM

DMerciful:
Where are the notes?
