Hello,
Affidavit has no special requirement or steps.
Walk into Ikeja high court, tell them you want to get an affidavit of support, it takes like 30minutes because they will have to print it out from their system and it goes for #700. They might ask you to show them some love, as someone that is aspiring to travel to Canada. So i best suggest you go with 2k. Because once they hear Canada, menh! they will call 2k.

You will need to go with your sponsor to the court as they would need his signature as the deponent. As i said earlier, go with 2k so you can get it done even without your sponspor escorting to the court, they will just indicate his name as the signature of the deponent.


Answer 2 -
Follow the advise of your bank officer, there is no way on earth you will transfer naira to dorm account. So go get the funds changed at BUREAU DE CHANGE and deposit it in your dorm account with your sponsor name as the depositor. While, your sponsor addresses this on his letter of sponsorship.

Best of luck OFFICIALAEL!
Seeing your moniker on my mention got me !!!!! Thanks for everything. You’re a good man.

1. You can get affidavit for as low as #500.
2. You don't need to have the money in dollars, let your sponsor send the naira equivalent into your naira account then once you get your study permit you can take your admission letter and flight ticket to your bank and they will help you source for dollars at FG rate (which will benefit you). But if you want to source yourself now you will have to get it from aboki (black market) as your bank as your bank is not obliged to source for you now until your study permit is approved
Thanks for the response

I have gone through 70% of all the post on study VISA application for Canada. I will like to have your good advice base on my few profile:

Bsc Urban and Regional Planning 2008, GPA-4.2, works experience till date: 1 year in Business and logistics, 2 years in Spatial monitoring of Bts and location of Bts, 4 years experience in 3 different planning firms and also a managing partner to a new established one but we are yet to start using it to assign or get jobs. Married with 1 kid and all funds in wife accounts (5 million naira bank and 4 million treasure billing to mature March ending. 1 completed building in my wife's name and a land in my name and also another property for my late dad (all doc in my custody-building worth 20 million naira). I am applying to 4 skools and two of the courses are designed for 1 year but you can extend while the other are two years. My question is that since 90% of my funds is in my wife account, would she be my sponsor or I ask her transfer all the money back to me for the purpose? My other question is that all the four courses are good but considering my age of 36, would you advice I focus more on the 1 year program which is professional and other the two years program which is academics and professional for the skools I choose putting into consideration VO scrutinizing my intention?

Thank you
Good day, in addition to what was said I think you should strongly consider the Canada Express Entry route. Good IELTS score and strong financial statement gets you and your family Permanent residence. Kindly visit the Canada Express Entry thread here on Nairaland. All the best

Good thing the program is in relation to your study. Send your SOP to a guru to help review, did you state why you’re not going for Msc instead.
As for the financials. I meant your sponsors acc is it his business(company) acc you presented or his personal acc?
You should add your own personal account in your next application to prove you earn

I just got rejected after 11weeks of submission. This got me tearing up. But then I need you guyz advice on how to tackle this bak. They tick finiancial part in which the statement of account I used I have 184millon in it. Purpose of visit was ticked too and travel history plus family ties. I don’t know wat to do pls. Anything will b helpful
Sorry about the outcome of your application. My advice is that you don’t rush into reapplying and also commit it to God. From the list of documents you submitted.
Did you submit your personal statement of account to show you’ve been earning as an admin manager.
Your sponsors acc is it a company account, I think its been stated here that it’s best to always use a personal acc
In your SOP did you answer questions like your plan after the program? Why Canada? And your activities since you graduated from uni
Lastly is the program related to your undergraduate degree ?
Best regards

Good evening house. I hope everyone is having a good weekend.
Please Can someone here explain, how to go about securing accommodation (in Ontario preferably) besides paying for school apartments, as they always tend to be higher in price. I remember reading someone’s story here, where she including the mail correspondence she had with a potential “landlord “ if I may say in her visa application.
My reason for asking is I have the expected $10k CAD needed for one year rent/living expenses , I don’t want to stay in school apartment but I want to add a documented proof during my TRV application to show that I have a place to stay.

After careful review of your study permit application and supporting documentation, I have determined that your application does not meet the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) and Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR). I am refusing your application on the following grounds:
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on the purpose of your visit.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on the limited employment prospects in your country of residence.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your current employment situation.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your personal assets and financial status.
This was the mail I got after 13 weeks. Any advise from on the house how I can tackle the reasons stated here? Thanks in anticipation
The documents submitted are:
Sponsor's SOA showing about 10M cash inflow
1st installment payment of tuition
10k CAD living expenses (bank draft)
A future letter of employment and deferment
And other cic documents
I put in for a year technical certificate course
Sorry about the visa delay. I’m aure with a well packaged application you can get your study visa. My question are
- Did your Sop answer question like, why Canada not Nigeria? Your plans after the program? Stating out clearly what you’ve been doing for the past years
- If you’ve been working here in Nigeria did you present personal financial doc to show you’ve been earning ?
- Is the program related to your previous academic degree ?
Looking forward to your reply

Mighty congratulations bro!! Glad I could be part of your success story and looking forward to meeting you in person at USASK! Go do us proud and hold down the fort for us. Cheers.

Ps: Millybushy was denied TRV going for PGD, then restrategized and applied for a PHD and that did it. For those looking a way out of the PGD quagmire, there goes your clue.
Hello! If I say you all are not giving me much to think about with the growing believe in this forum that Msc/Phd applicants stand a better chance of getting study visa over Pgd/c then I’m lying. I literally went through all the Uni in Canada to see if I meet the minimum requirement for an Msc program in Science and Tech. My questions to you are
1 can one secure Msc admission even without meeting certain requirements like 3.0 GPA
If no
2 how can one convince a VO that Pgd/c is the only reasonable route after a Bsc degree

Hello Everyone,
Compliments of the season.

Kindly assist a Sister here urgently.
After 2 PGD programmes, my spouse and children have tried visiting during my programmes but was denied.
I am tired of living without my family.

I have a 3yrs work permit running but my visa has expired. I want to renew my visa and if possible apply for them.
Please what do I apply for ?
1. Work permit for spouse +visiting my son+ Visiting for myself.
2. Visiting for all.
3.visiting for self and my son and later work permit for spouse.
4, PR straight for myself or for all .

My Son is 7 years old now.
If I am applying for my spouse, using the SWOP route: He has worked for 15years and just retired some months back but he newly registered his private business where he does sales and events. Has personal current account and savings.
About to open a company account.

Kindly advise and assist with the list of documents to be submitted plus any advise and tips will be well appreciated.

Thank you and may God grant all our wishes according to his will. Amen!!!
I suggest you and your spouse apply for PR via Express Entry with you as the principal applicant since you have points already from studying in Canada . You stand the chance of earning extra points if your spouse writes IELTS. All the best

Yes America study visa seems to be a bit easy to get, but you should also remember that nothing good comes easy.

Please how should one tackle the issue of accommodation during visa application. I know it’s advisable to pay for school accommodation to increase ones chances of securing a visa but in my case where the school accommodation and meal plan is on the high side ( 9k for 7 months). Do I go ahead to make say 3 months deposit for a place outside school to show my commitment or have the money kept in a domiciliary account with financial statements to back it up.
