Uzorsammy:
They have not started for September intake chill. By March or April you will get a decision

This might not be totally correct. I got my LOA in just 2 weeks in November 2022, against fall this year.

Some major programs are even closed for fall 2023 intake. That tells you the number of applications Conestoga has to process as mentioned by Frank

pufframmy:
someone have to make the payment before going for the appointment or we can pay on the appointment day?

It's better you make the payment before the appointment date.

beccadamilola:



Yes please I need their account details and the amount I'm to pay I can't find any information about it on the website. I also don't have the appointment confirmation on my email I only have the verification email and after verifying I'm not able to print the details

I'm sorry this is coming late.

Please see the information as requested;

Name of Bank - Standard Chartered Bank
Account No. - 0001855256
Account Name - International Organization for Migration (IOM)

Age range

0 - 4 years - #34,500
5 - 10 years - #36,500

Please note: Payment should be made before reporting for medical screening . Transfer payment is preferable, and for families, one bulk payment (transfer) is acceptable.


As long as your appointment booking was successful, you are supposed to have a copy of the appointment in your mail. You can send them a mail iomlagosmedicalbooking@iom.int or iomabujamedicalbooki@iom.int to confirm the status of your appointment.

GoodLuck....

beccadamilola:




I have booked an appointment with Iom but when I login it's not there and if I try to register again it says that I already have an appointment. How do I make payment or will I be contacted?

All you need now is just your appointment confirmation which can be printed from your registered email address. Then make payment to their account. That's all you need to get your medical examination done. Quote me if you need their account details.

padie77:
Pls how much is for reapplication and how am I going to pay due to naira debit card international limit?

If you mean visa reapplication, the cost is $150 cad...since you have already paid for biometric in your previous application. You may get Dollar card or virtual dollar card to make your payment.

GL

beccadamilola:
Hi everyone I submitted my application on January 20 and I've done biometrics I'm considering taking an upfront medical and uploading it because my Program is May. Do you think this is possible or should I wait for the request because of IMEI number or it isn't necessary thank you.

You may go ahead with your medical examination

genkins:
Good day all,pls my wife's visa application was rejected reason being that we didn't show enough proof that we will come back to Nigeria
1.what can I show as proof of her intention to come back after her studies
2.i applied for Gcms notes since December and no reply yet.i sent a mail and it autogenerated a response.pls what can I do?any faster service?
Nb.we don't have kids yet.
Nb.she has an accounting degree,works as a journalist and had admission to cape Breton for healthcare mgt.

Oh! Sorry for the rejection. It is only a delay.

Meanwhile, outside the fact that her hometie was weak, I think her choice of program also was not strong enough to show her career progression.

Accounting, Journalism & Health care management?

Please request for your CBSA note so you can be properly guided in her next application.

Ajaxa:
Good morning all. I got admission into Seneca college and my admission package came with it immediately. I'm to pay a deposit of $8000 canadian dollar for my first semester and the deadline for payment is February 22. Can I still use form A to initiate the payment immediately and I will need you to guide me through all the processes and explain some terms used for the application processes to me. Thanks

Unfortunately, putting the deadline into consideration, Form A may disappoint. Your best bet is to pay your first term tuition using the black market. Seneca is one of those schools that do not accept tuition deposit but full term payment.

GoodLuck

Habeebboy:
I need an Information

Please who knows about Fleming college Toronto. I just got an admission to the school and I will like to know if there is anyone who has any information about the school.

I can't figure out what you really wanted to know about the college. This your question should have come before applying to the school in the first place not after securing an admission.

Habeebboy:
Good day everyone.

Please these are my questions

1) What is the earliest appointment date at the Canada embassy for student Visa.

2) How many month will it take decision of student visa to be out after submission to the embassy.

3) I will also like to know if Canada embassy offer poirity service for appointment date.

Thank you all


1.

1. Nothing like earliest appointment date.


Submission of application is faceless (online). Secure an admission with DLI, submit your application, go for biometric capturing and upfront medical if you wish. Then go spiritual.

2. No definite month. It ranges from 2 weeks - 12 months (maximum I have heard of) depending on your application complexity.

3. No priority


GoodLuck

archola:
Hello good Morning great minds please I need advice what to do is it normal I apply for study permit October 2022 and supposed resume January 9 but till now still waiting to hear from IRCC after biometric request nothing follow is it normal I have filled diferrra form what could cause delay

Most times the complexity of applications determine their processing time. But since your application has passed the official processing time, you should start disturbing them. Have you tried to reach out to them through mail and webform? If you have not, start sending webforms to IRCC, focus more on Nairobi. Make it a daily routine. This format has worked for many people on this platform.


GoodLuck

stanmorry:
Thanks for your response.
Ok it's for Spring.
Honestly, my head is full. How do I state my situation to them? Really don't want to cause damage to myself. Please, any clue?

Nothing serious about it. Just mention in your write-up that you were already processing your deferment as a result of delay before you had your approval.. Then attach the new LOA. Opari

subzheero:
I am May intake, l submitted my application Jan 5.Please hope is not too late to submit Jan 5 when resumption is May.

You are on track. All things being equal, you should get a decision (+) in March/April.

gideon19:


if i want to add pension fund to my POF, will i need to request for a letter from my pension fund handler (Using trust fund).

Yes, a reference letter and statement of account. Just like regular banks. But I will prefer to classify pension account as home tie instead of POF since it's only a certain % of your savings that can be assessed when one is out of job for some certain months

blueberryacres:

So I can’t make payment for the application in Naira?

Unfortunately. No

OldwomanWoman:
Hello Everyone,

Pls does anyone know anyone who can do assignments from Nigeria..

I need someone who can help do assignment for a fee

Thank you

What type of assignment?

damilola1978:
Hi guys please how do you make application payment these days from Nigeria, is there a virtual dollar card service that charges from naira account?

Some people use virtual cards. But the easiest I know is walking to any UBA bank and request for Dollar card. Get the card for $4 and source for the fund from Aboki to process your application.

GoodLuck

Shrunkwriter:
Hello my people. Please quick one. How old is my statement of account permitted to be prior to submission. So I'm not referring to the length of the statement of account. I'm referring to the duration between "printing" and "application submission".

Ideally, I think 2-4 days is fine. But wait for others to contribute. Anything outside a week is not good enough in my own opinion.

BenedictStinson:

I did walk in passport submission in Abuja on Friday 20th and Got 3 mails from VFS that same Friday
I later for this one on Saturday night. Does this mean that my passport is already ready for collection?

Congratulations on your approval. Your passport is not yet ready for collection. Wait for couple of more messages.

GoodLuck

stanmorry:
My class was supposed to start on the 9th JAN. 2023. But due to Visa delay I had to defer my admission and the deferral was denied because, I haven't paid up the 1st semester tuition fee, then I was advised by CONESTOGA COLLEGE to re-apply in the same program, which I did re-apply as advised on the 12th JAN. And they gave me admission on the 14th JAN. Now before I could send the new acceptance letter to IRCC through webform my PPR came out.
Got my PPR on the 17th JAN. WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO NOW PLEASE, YOUR ADVICE IS NEEDED

Congratulations on your visa approval. Go ahead and notify IRCC of your new LOA through mail and webform. You have enough time to prepare for your resumption be it spring or fall.

Palmstore:
Hello guys,
My intake is September 2023 and I have gotten admission can I apply for a visa around February? Or it’s too early. Because I have heard that if you apply early you will get a refusal

False... September intake have started applying for visa since last year. Go ahead and submit your application asap.

GL

Winter is around the corner, time of disbursement of your funds through Form A is subject to availability of FX. In your best interest, deferral may be your best bet.

OYELEYEIFEOLUWA:
Hello Great Nairalandians.
Thank you all the free consultations and experience sharing so far.

I got admission for winter 2023 but I haven't been able to apply for study permit because the tuition deposit I am supposed to pay
has taken over a month now with FORM A payment. I am applying for a bachelors degree. With the year remaining just 3 month I need to know whether it's logical apply now or I should defer the admission to fall.
Thanks.
God Abeg!

Your concern has been addressed above. Additionally, if you have any relative, friend or trusted person outside Nigeria that can help with it also will be fine. CBN is pressing our neck with fruitless and evil policies

clodd007:
pls ...am trying to apply to nscc but tried my firstbank mastercard to pay the application fee of 75 cad but was declined ..how can i go about this ?

Form A gives you the opportunity to make your payment at CBN rate while the later (wire transfer) is through black market or aboki rate. The difference is much anyways.

Yes you can do wire transfer directly to the designated bank in Canada (either to the school through flywire or directly to the school if the school allows that)

Form A takes averagely 4-6 weeks depending on the bank you use.

I think Access bank, Heritage bank, globus bank and few others have good ratings.

Please wait for additional contribution from the house

Abeg441:
Good morning house. Please bear with me and answer my questions, thanks.

Please what is the difference between Form A and wire transfer?

Can I use wire transfer directly from my naira account to the designated bank in Canada?

How long does Form A take recently?

Thanks again

Mr. Man. I think you all need to be cool with this fellow at this point. You all know the contents of generic refusal note and you kept pressing and disturbing her to give you what she doesn't have. You don't expect her to have her GCMS note by now. She is passing through a phase, let her be at least for now. Just as she mentioned, people get refused everyday here without coming out to say it. For letting the house know of her status alone means she gat some balls..... This is not the time to say all manners of I'll word to her because of your selfishness. Do you think everyone sleep and wake up on NL as you do. Please you all should drop this your entitlement mentality as if she owes you. Is it by force to give you the reasons of her refusal, especially when she doesn't have the real reasons.


@bepositive11, are you feeling intimidated with properties? She hasn't said anything bad about you. Seems you are happy about her refusal.

bepositive11:
I am honestly disgusted by your attitude. Go and read my comment again and see whether it warranted such a disgusting response. Is it because of your bank balance and properties that you have such an ugly attitude?

Do you think having the properties and bank balance you have is enough to convince the visa officer that you will return and that you're eligible for a study permit? FYI, your POF can be a double edged sword. And there are many other factors that they consider.

I'm sure you wrote your SOP and sponsorship letter with that same attitude. Keep feeling entitled. Nonsense!

Glory1568:
Hello, nairaland family.

Please I have an urgent question, what's the average time for receiving stamped passport from Lagos VFS office?

4-15 days or so. I may not be totally correct. Please wait for others input

Betterlife30:
Please, in a situation whereby you haven't print your statement of account that has your living expenses already in it but a huge lump of money was paid into your account and the money is not meant for you but your sister. Does it have any implications on someone's application if you send out the money the following day to your sister's account? Is someone safe if the money doesn't stay in someone's account when printing the statement of account for the study visa?
Please, I will really appreciate your response on this.

The money in question may attract attention depending on how big it is. Again, there is nothing wrong with lump sum coming and going out as long as it is well explained so it would not be perceived as means of inflating the account. Just the source and destination. O Paris.


Good luck

Betterlife30:


Never ever try to apply for passport online. If you do so, you will regret it. Go to the immigration office and do your passport renewal, it's not hard. The duration of capturing and for passport to be ready is not stable. You can wait a month now after paying before doing your capturing and the passport may come out within 2weeks to 4weeks after capturing depending on where you do it.

You may not be totally correct. I did my passport renewal online with less than 18k, and I never regretted it. It depends on the state and how soon the person needs the passport. Immigration officers feed on desperate applicants. I knew I would need my passport in September so I applied and captured in June and got it in August.

Nigerians have the habit of this fire brigade approach. Sometimes it baffles me when I see people applying for visa for fall intake in June/July/August with this snail pace IRCC processes applications, quoting all scriptures to back it up. Yes you may get it but the chances are very slim and you may even end up making avoidable mistakes.

If you want to apply for your passport online, please do but if you have excess bucks to give for fast track, you can also do as well

Those that have travelled should please answer this question.. it has been asked several times without answer...

FAVANA:
Good morning dear all,

Please do I need an updated statement of account to travel? Or they just check my bank app. I mean when I am trying to cross into canada.
