Dlee1: Good to see you here again brother and my fellow ASAS patient. Though I don't know if you have been cured of ASAS disease.
Really, Seun never cared to improve this site. A whole lots of folks was complained then that he need to do something to improve this site from various thread but he never cared. What a pity!!!
I really missed those old days when this thread was blazing hot. I wish could turn back the hands of time...
I salute you GeorgeD1, Odilibe, Badaru, Dejsam, Obnelly, Kungu, Sammu, Twinskenny, Olofofo, Townjuju, Jujuchemist, Life707, Freshp, Newton, Olenyi, Auch, Pidzo, Ogoojohn, Nzeval, Microgiant and whole lots of others that I couldn't mention their names. Not forgetting some folks that still make some contributions here like Adubam and others. I 🫡 salute, still remember those days of research and lnb testing.. We are watching 👀 still an ASAS patient but on medication

Okonkwobestman1: Hello Everyone,
This group seems to be very quiet lately , either there are not too many people waiting or we just may have learnt the waiting game of IRCC. They really taught some of us "patience".
I was just wondeing if anyone else is waiting for decision , any July applicant in the house still waiting? Below is my profile since submission, nothing else  Immigration cap may be effecting processing of study permit. A school in one province have international student admissions drop down to 70 percent.while another university only admitted 10 students for fall semester in 2025. |

Ifybwoy: Good evening guys, please my sisters was given admission (Master of Data Analytics) University of Niagara Falls Canada. The previous student advisor was very good and patient with us and was carrying us along on how to go about with everything, but he was recently changed and my sister was given another student advisor. When we told the new student advisor that we are ready to make our tuition deposit, he insisted that the school won't give her LOA even if we make the payment this September, that we need to wait till January 2026 before making our deposit as that is when the school will be able to give her the LOA. We explained to him that Canadian Student visa processing time ranges from 2 - 4 months for Nigerians and with such timeframe that she might not be able to meet up as her program is starting April 2026, but he kept insisting that the school won't give her the LOA (Letter of Acceptance) even if she makes the deposit payment this month (September), that she will need to wait till January to get her LOA and the said new student advisor have refused to state the actual reason for this delay.
Please guys I want to know if there could be any reason for this delay.
Thank you. The student advisor just been honest! Why issue LOA when you''ll need PAL for study permit application. You'll have to wait for 2026 PAL allocations to issue LOA . Even if you pay it's useless. PAL allocations for 2026 will be by January 2026,just a thought. |

Kenn55: You can withdraw your PR application and apply again when you can only use experience outside the one you didn't mention initially. You need to stay consistent. I think you will be fine as long as they haven't acted on your current application and flag it. But if they flag it before your withdrawal then it could be a big problem so I think Will need a whole genuine reasons to withdraw a PR application,especially in canada application, otherwise will ignore request, information received for withdrawal will be entered in GCMS notes. If they suspect misrepresentation even before processing has started they will ignore request, wondering what will be a reason for PR withdrawal, incase applicant lose status or will be required to leave Canada if withdrawal is made.  |

amnotapervert: Baba, calm down. Not everyone is suffering like you. Yes, things are difficult, but it’s not that bad.
Last year, even though I was laid off, I still made (working two IT jobs) $211,120 even tho I was taxed crazy and bought my second house.
Don’t discourage people from coming; instead, inform them about the challenges of moving and the realities of migrating to Canada in 2025.
Yes, PR will be difficult. Yes, finding a job will be tough. Yes, the taxes are high.
But it’s always best to immigrate with a skill and do so legally. I guess you will be taxed upto 72,000 canadian dollars plus other deductions. |

resilience001: Lol no. I’m a nurse. Got first diploma in 2014, I was 20 years. Got 2nd diploma 2018 at 24 years. Bsc was for 2years got it in 2024 from UK university. I dont need to serve. I have always worked as a nurse since 2015. Never searched for job. But you haven't work as a Nurse since 2015,you have gaps in between work and studying. Even the VO got it wrong ,stated that you held same position over 9years,unless you stated that you have been working as a nursing officer since 2015. That is from 2015 to 2024 working as a nursing officer, ignoring the fact that you studied for 2years graduated in 2024 in Uk.so how is 2years study in the UK counted as work history when you was a student. If the VO meant that you are a nursing officer held that position for over 9years after first diploma and after second diploma, you still remain a nursing officer same position and after Bsc same position as a nursing officer, it means after this course in canada, your position will not change ,so it will have no impact in your position and career progression. |

Bobomaigida: It is the bias we have to deal with as Nigerians, sometimes you see an identical profile from an Indian getting approved. The fact of the matter is that we are expected to provide more funds than others yet when the funds are provided, and the provenance is genuine they still deny the application with silly reasons like " there are concerns that the funds will not be available".  |

Digitman: Definitely you can. But let me point out one downside to this configuration.
If decoder A is on and you decide to put on decoder B, and each are in two different satellite channels. Then the signal to decoder B will not come up.
But if decoder A and B channels are on the same satellite position . Both channels signal will be stable.
For example you are watching Joy TV @28.2 degree on decoder A , and someone else decides to watch MBC2 @42.5 degree east through decoder B. The signal will not come up because there is a conflict.
However, if the two decoders will not be on at the same time, it works or if both decoders will be on the same satellite channels, it will also work as well without any conflict.
So it boils down to how comfortable the person using feels about it or ready to make that compromise. I dare the above set up has never worked! You cannot mix or send vertical polarity and horizontal polarity at same time on different receivers on same lnb cable... this will confuse the lnb...and jam v/h pol between between the two receivers..following a conflict that will power off the receiver or disable the receiver tuner. ..even if you track 2 satetlites with same lnb on same satellite dish on different sat position example 17 and 16east the receiver will see it at same sat position cos no diseqc is needed on the kind of set up....so it is not a satellite position and channel issue as you said... This can only work on different transponders with same polarity irrespective of satellites on same diseqc switch or not etc.. Otherwise the set up can damage weak receivers tuner!! T Type f connector is not made for satellite dish.. receiver to lnb installation |
