Finally, Bvl/Passport Request. Fourth Application. Glory be to God. My special thanks goes to Frankrobn1, Naijaforeigner and other gurus in the house whose contributions and encouragement helped me to achieve this feat after the unfair decision I received from IRCC on my third application. This forum gave me all that i needed, no third party involvement in my recent applications..CELEBRATION MOOD

Congratulations!!!
I can’t wait to read the gist and list or what changed in this app.

House. I got a second bvl today after getting an initial bvl.no further update. is it normal?

Are you sure it’s a BVL? Because sometimes they send that notification(without any letter) again just in case you haven’t seen the first or so I think.
So in other to be sure of what was sent to you, kindly check your account to see if there is another letter attached or in your email.

But to your question, YES it’s normal. It means you will hear from them sooner than later.

Sorry just to clarify, are you saying that every applicant must submit his/her SOA, even if they have both main and co sponsors?

It is required that all applicants submits a SOA of between 4-6 months(though I have seen a couple of people that used a 3month SOA). The amount in the applicants bank account does not really matter but also depends on the applicant and the current situation(Study gap, working or not etc).
However, if an applicant is a minor(17yrs or less), the sponsor’s SOA/POF is sufficient provided there is a enough to cover all expenses.
Good luck...

I applied March 8 and got medical request.

Hi @oma22, Is your first app?

Travel › Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 16 by Obehi44: 11:59am On Apr 24, 2020

Hi all, hope we are all observing and keeping to the advice of the health care professionals. I am sure this pandemic too will pass soon and we all will still be here with no loss IJN

To all those who recently have been refused their study visa, I feel your pain and I want to encourage you to order for your GCMS notes to ascertain if there is a hidden reason by the VO aside the normal generic refusal reasons. I will also advice that no one should be discouraged but rather sit back, rethink and repackage. But one thing you must not do is to start rushing to re-apply. Trust me, from experience, I know some reasons behind someone wanting to rush and reapply, but I am strongly advising against it.

Congratulations to those getting medical requests because you are almost there. I advise no one should feel like a supper man/woman but rather attribute it to the Grace of God aside you’re hard work/input.
Kindly make sure to help others on these forum as best as you can. If they ask questions, please respond as best as you can. If they reach you in person, please don’t do shakara, respond as best as you can also. I have one question, DOES THE MEDICAL REQUEST STATES 30days or 90days? Please let us know if any of the medical centers are open.

As for all the other great men and women who has been taking their time to respond, explain and helping others, I greet you all. Please keep doing the good.

I will respond to your pm but I don't have a sample of the table. Cheers.

Oh really! I thought it’s how you did yours or have seen it or done it for someone.

Naijaforeigner:
(1) There is nothing to justify really in your sponsor's SOA. The best your bank can do is give the owner of an account a letter stating how long the account has been operated for, how good the customer has been and if your sponsor is the sole signatory to the account. They cannot comment on what the money will be used for because if the money is not used for that purpose they can be held liable.

(2) Your dad will give you his SOA, try to prove he has always being responsible for your studies and submit your birth certificate to show proof that he is actually your dad.

or he can simply transfer the LE to your account and state how much in his sponsorship letter. You will need to submit your SOA alongside his for proof.

You can also create a table showing total available funds in your sponsor's account, funds transferred to your account, total amount of funds available for your studies and so forth. You need to show proof. You can go further by converting to Canadian dollars in another table stating clearly the site you used for conversion. Oanda is approved by UK for conversion, you can try it.

P.s What I have stated above is optional. So many people have submitted SOA without a letter from bank and had their applications approved. I did not include a letter from bank in my application and still got approved in 2018.

Nice explanation. I will need you help though, to see how or a sample of the table created for funds available. Sent you a pm

Dear Obehi,

I am female and my dad was a co-sponsor.

The additional documents which I added in my second application was:
1. Affidavit of return
2. Letter of explanation- I queried why I was denied the first application that I had proved my intentions to study( I was denied based on purpose of visit in the first application), I was polite oh! I also attached my email correspondence with other universities in other countries to show Canada was not a do or die affair
3. I also attached a Newspaper publication Where one of the universities advertised Programs for 2019/20 but did not include the course at Masters level

I sent you an email.
Though I was gonna ask who was the main sponsor because you didn’t say. You only said your dad was the co-sponsor.

I was also gonna ask if I could get a cut of the section of your LOE how you queried why you were denied the first application.

Kindly respond to the email or here or reach me.

Dear Obehi,

Thanks for your response.

With regards to me being at the VFS office, those people are very rude and full of themselves. They act as if they are too much and avoid giving too much details

Thanks anyway for the feedback, please for the record as I responded to Son of God. In an earlier post , I had mentioned I would reply back with my timeline but I fell ill. I am willing to assist anyone and share any information

So sorry about your health and I hope you are doing better now.

Kindly send a email to IRCC and email/chat with VFS to get concrete info on how to go about your passport submission.

Goodday everyone.

I am confused here as to the best method to use for my sop.

I am about writing my Sop right now, but i would like to know which is better between using subtopics to explain, in details, my points or just paragraphs.

Please which one would be ideal for an excellent Sop?

The truth is that both have worked for different people at different times.
No two applications are the same. Believe and faith is another that works or goes a long way.
So use your style as long as you cover all grounds or concerns of the VO.

I wish you luck.

Dear Moderators

Thank you for all that you do. May God bless and reward you.

Please I need your advise, I have received my Original Passport Request letter for my online student application but when I went to the Vfs office here in Abuja Nigeria to submit my passport I was informed that they are no longer collecting passport for now. My questions are:

1) I received the letter on the 19th of March and I have 30days to submit the passport, would the period of passport submission be extended I am supposed to resume school May 4th.

2)Someone advised I send my passport via FedEx to CIC in Ottawa Canada for Stamping. Can I send it?

3)in case the school defers to September because of the travel restrictions caused by covid 19, would my Visa be extended by IRCC to cover the duration of study.

Please I would really appreciate your kind response.

Best Regards

Not only here to ask questions oh. This is a forum where we help each other as best as we can. So kindly do well to share the timeline of your application.
Date of application ?
Medical request or medical upfront?
School/ program?
Funding or did you pay tuition fees?
Any other details that could help others and be kind enough to respond to others who may need your help.

Now in response to your questions:
1. I suppose the period of passport submission will be extended and from experience anything 30days , 60days giving my CIC if affected by anything serious will be overlooked.

2. Do not yield to anybody’s advise who is not a VFS worker, CIC or has personal experience. So that you won’t regret anything.

3. Yes your visa will be extended to cover the duration of your study permit should it be affected by COVID-19, the school deferment or anything legal and proven.

In conclusion, I would have expected someone like you, who has been to vfs abuja to have asked these and many more questions and by now you would have been the best person to give us first hand info.

Hello everyone, I just got my admission letter from Carleton University. Am going for a second bachelors degree, my first bachelors degree was in computer Engineering, the second which I just got the admission is Information Technology (Information Resource Management). My question now is whether I should state that am going for my second degree or not and what is the possibility that I won’t be flagged

Yes it’s not advisable to go for a 2nd BSc.

You may not declare the first for to the VO, but that depends on your age and study gap. Especially your age.

Tnx
So u think applying for another course will give me a slim chance of being approved

Yes. But it’s also not impossible.

Focus on using the best course or program to get your visa first, then after that program you may switch to another program of your choice as your 2nd program while you are still there.

Good day every one,am a newbie seeking for a study visa in Canada already have a college in mind buh d thing is dat I want to switch careers. Already hv a Bsc in Food science and technology buh I wat to apply for practical nursing by applying for a diploma program. My question is, will such decision affect me.

Changing careers is difficult to explain or prove to Canada VO’s, though some have successfully done it.
This your Food science and technology course sells very well in terms of convincing the VO why you want to go study it abroad. So you should try the masters program.
Just my opinion.

Congratulations to the newly approved on the TL, and i wish those who’s application is still running best of luck.

Meanwhile, I want to urge those who have been approved, to try and always release information or letters to help those who sick for it. I say this because I have noticed that character by some Nigerians, who will not want to disclose how they succeed to others even after they have succeeded.

To give others your letter after it worked for you, shouldn’t a bad idea. Remove your details and information and also advise or warn the person against plagiarism.

May this new week bring good news of approval in all ramification IJN

Pls guys I need your help oo...

My second application since November 25...nothing yet from CIC. Now I just discovered that there was an error...a friend of mine who’s an agent handled it for me as I was out Lagos then... so i sent him everything he needs even the previous refusal letter and he tick (No) for where they ask if I was refused before.....my application is still on background check. Pls I need your help and I don’t even know what right. A friend of mine in Canada said I should withdraw my application to avoid the 5yrs ban.

Pls guys I need help with this..��

I have seen and read here about 3-4 similar cases. So I will advise you also go back and read, then contact those people to know what they did and worked for them.

But to my own opinion, withdrawal of your application will be too harsh on yourself because you are yet to be contacted by CIC/IRCC. So I guess they haven’t seen it or gotten to that part of your application yet. Therefore, I think you stand a chance of making corrections now.

Fill the form again and tick the appropriate boxes, write a letter admitting your honest mistake and apologize for that. Then state that this is why you have to quickly re-fill and resubmit the form to them.

Send the letter and form via web form and email to Lagos and Nairobi.

I wish you luck.
