Please can someone help me here. I want to apply to study in Ireland but my younger brother who is based in the UK want to sponsor me to cover the cost of living funds. Is it possible and how do I go about it??

Hello, I applied under the OINP HCP stream on September 12 with NOC 33102. At the time of application, I had completed two years of part-time work at no fewer than 15 hours per week. My understanding was that this should be considered equivalent to one year of full-time experience, and I submitted the same reference letter accordingly.

However, I received an ADR stating that equivalent part-time experience means either:
– working concurrently in multiple positions for at least 30 hours per week for two years, or
– working in one position for at least 15 hours per week for four years.

This has left me confused. Has anyone encountered a similar situation, and how was it resolved? Is this an error from the reviewer?

Thanks so much for the response.

Why not start by inviting your fiancée to the UK where you live?
Because I doubt any visa officer will believe your approach of sponsoring your fiancée not your wife to another country, especially when you haven’t even invited her to the UK where you actually reside.
This whole arrangement is built on shallow ground, and it will not stand.
All those photos and chat histories you're gathering should be directed to the UK authorities when you apply for a UK visa for her not used to convince Canada. You're skipping steps, and it won’t hold up under scrutiny.

Hi,

I’m currently based in the UK on a Skilled Worker visa, and my fiancée is in Nigeria. I recently got a Canadian visit visa approved and have a stable job. Now, I’m considering applying for a Canadian visit visa for her.

She’s employed in Nigeria and can obtain letters to support her employment status, which we intend to use as her primary proof of strong ties to her home country. However, I would like to act as her financial sponsor, meaning I’ll be submitting my UK bank statements as part of the application.

We’re planning to have our traditional introduction soon, and I can provide supporting documents such as pictures and chat history to demonstrate the genuineness of our relationship.

Could you advise how feasible this sponsorship approach and application is, and whether using a UK-based financial sponsor might affect her chances? She doesn’t have any travel history.

Okay, thanks

hardware na hardware. I have installed for peeps who brought dia kits from Yankee

It’s cos it’s cheaper here if I have to buy off Facebook marketplace

All that matters is your service address. Plus why buy it in the Uk by the time it gets here wherever you want to use it may be out of activation slots.

Please can I buy a starlink in the UK and use it in Nigeria. What are the steps that needs to be taken if I am buying in the Uk and to use in Nigeria?

To support this, I had a near fraud experience with him in January when I was looking for a French teacher. In fact he was recommended by the popular madam Bizang. I contacted the guy but I saw the signs so early. First, when I contacted the guy early January and I wasn’t ready then, but this guys kept pestering me that he has people disturbing him and that to take up classes and I needed to act fast. Week by week. What put the icing on the cake was that I eventually agreed to start and I asked for his terms. He said part payment which was okay. But imagine immediately I made the part payment. He changed that he will want a full payment before he start class. I was like firstly, this wasn’t what we agreed to, secondly who pays full payment to someone that I haven’t gotten a single service from or neither have I met him before other than via WhatsApp chat. Immediately I demanded my refund and with subtle threat. He did a refund and I blocked him forever. Please be careful out there guys.

Anobody:
You open a new account and recommended yourself FRAUDSTER!
Check the TEF group and two people had spoken of his poor service. He’s refused to refund someone after missing classes, and has poor teaching skills.
Even the lady that first introduced him didn’t pass her TEF, she plans on rewriting. Do not fall for this scammer MAURIUS

Nah…The worst that will happen will be that Nigerians coming home will have to use other African Airline like Rwandanair, Ethiopian or Kenyan. Only issue will be the merry-go-round.

People are saying he should divert BA and Virgin to like borno, ilorin or kebbi. How many white people are entering this country if not expatriate? Is it not ur citizens that are returning back home. If he try it, is ur people that will still attack him that his endangering their lives because they will need to travel again to Lagos or Abuja by road.

The reality is that it’s just the game of selfishness covered in being politically correct. Look critically into the comments and profile of people taking this news around. You will see either they are already in canada or they know such news will favour them directly or indirectly. No one discourages people or sow seed of lost hope more than those already in the system and wishes it only benefits them. We have all been here before when Canada announced something and still did a surprise draw. Everyone has a phone to goggle whatever news, whether true or not, but this platform is meant to encourage people to keep pushing even if things looked difficult. To all who want to hear, don’t let whatever anyone says in the name of facts or whatever reality discourage you from updating that Ielts score, writing second language, look into category based draws or doing whatever thing even if you are outside of canada. What will be will surely be.

Nye Nye, I know you will crawl out, that's only where we see you, wear your badge with confidence dear prime minister.

Nobody send how old you are in abroad, it’s not Nigeria. You can’t discriminate someone based on age. Just have the necessary skills.

Falseprophet01:
Well, if yiur answer to the following questions are a yes, then yes. Otherwise, you are better of investing that money in a profitable venture in Nigeria.

1. Are you below 30 years old? : People may not know, but lucrative jobs abroad which they make open for skilled migrants often target young skilled migrants because of taxes and economic reasons.

2. Do you have a lucrative skill like barbing, coding, design, etc?: With these skills, you can easily get freelance gigs on the side in western countries faster than you get fulltime jobs. If shit hits the fan, you can turn to it.

3. Whats your plan for going to Canada? Are you going because your friend went and is now telling you through pictures how good that place is(all shalaye), or you are going because you have idenntified a particular skill you believe that learning it could be your way to financial success. If no plan, please dont waste your money.

4. Have you got anyone already in Canada who could provide you a place to stay for like 2-3 months after you arrive?. Bro, the kind of housing crisis in Canada is the worse since the great depression, and when winter comes....Lol

Your 10m is a sizeable resource in Nigeria. Have you considered going to profitable ventures, growing that capital gradually and carefully and making something out of it for yourself.

Please do you work in IRCC, you seem so sure of your stand. IRCC is unpredictable, as someone mentioned and corrected you, if it’s not official don’t keep on saying things that may likely discourage people.

Jordyntimi:
if they are to conduct any category based draw it will likely be trade, the last time trade came up it was December. But i doubt any category based draw for now, ircc priority have shifted to the inland applicant henceforth it will be more of cec, general and pnp.

Thank you so much. I have responded to your email.

I have responded to your email.

Hello, I have tried sending an email to you . Please can by any chance respond as I needed some clarifications. Thanks

luckygirl02:
I work as a support worker and I used the noc code 33102.

Only God Knows how long I waited for someone to respond. Thank you so much sir/ma. I will advise accordingly.

gretop86:
You need to compare the NOC job description for a medical lab assistant vs what your niece currently does as a laboratory assistant. If the description matches and you're able to prove that you have experience in the field, it should not be an issue. However, the years of experience also matters on your CRS score when it comes to express entry. Do you research on these 2 items: NOC job description & years of experience for a good CRS score as well as other CRS factors.

He meant from K1 till he got the blue passport

Oluwaloniglory7:
Does it take longer like that 5 years for K-1 visa

Please, I am asking this on behalf of my niece. She had HND in business administration and due to lack of job. She started supporting someone that owns a laboratory as a lab assistant. While on the job, the person did on job training for her and she was able to do some things in no time. She was being paid salary every month even though small but paid into her account and she has done it for like 1yrs and 6months. Now the question is, can she apply as a medical lab assistant under the healthcare draw considering the fact that her Undergraduate degree doesn’t align with what she want to claim experience for. Please, I need someone response. Thanks

Hi All, Please I need to ask about the category based draw for healthcare. I have a sister that studied biological science at the bachelor’s level but her school indicated on her certificate in bracket, Zoology option, she has been working as a medical laboratory assistant since she finished school. Can she apply under the category based draw for healthcare as her job is eligible. She said that she only did a course in zoology in her final year and that was the reason why the school said that. Will this be an issue as IRCC May be expecting that her Bachelor’s degree matches exactly with her work experience. Thanks

Bro, can I relate to you? I want to put in an application from outside Nigeria. I am worried about the denial due to home ties. Please, I will send you a message. I just needed some guidance. Thanks

sudo1986:
I am not in Nigeria though. However, I'll see what to do to it sha

Many thanks for your response.....However, the issue that I have is how then will I explain to the Visa officer what I went to do in the UK because that will be so obvious considering the study gap and travel history

Isaacosita:
Congrats... on your MBA see if you are going for a PGD or PGC or DIPLOMA or Certificate you don't have to include your MBA in your Cv or resume or you give them the Visa Officers a good reason for choosing such program to avoid visa denial.

Hi, I recently completed an MBA in the UK and want to switch my career to Information security or Cybersecurity in a Canadian institution. Also, considering that I already have a master's, I wish to enrol on a 1 yr programme while completing my career goals with IT certifications. The question is which should I go for between a graduate certificate or diploma? I really don't want to spend much time in a classroom.

Also, will my declaration of having an MBA affect my chances considering that taking this programme is solely cos I want to switch careers? I have some IT Audit certifications and will complete some before the end of the year. Thanks
