COPIED FROM PART 10 BY sheriff712

I believe the current batch of TRV hopefuls can help us confirm this...!! grin grin shocked shocked shocked shocked

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR EVERYBODY
I have been a silent reader. I have made some discovery about how CIC process our applications. You don't have to stress yourself worrying for 7 days in a week. I discovered that VOs have specified days that they actually review your application. I made the discovery after sleepless nights of going through the threads and gathering vital informations from part 1 to this last part of the thread.

The following are each step of your application and the days they are reviewed by the VOs

1. Medical Request - Mostly Fridays & Mondays. Rarely Thursdays & Wednesday.

2. Medical Passed - Mostly Fridays & Mondays.

3. Approval Mail - Mostly Tuesdays & Wednesdays, rarely Thursdays.

4. Refusal Mail: - Mondays & Fridays

5. Passport Dispatch: - Tuesdays & Wednesdays.

I concluded based on testimonies from Part 1 to this part of the thread.

Don't give yourself HBP. Once you don't get a mail on Monday, wait till Friday, and if you don't get on Friday you can always wait till Monday. Also, try and engage yourself in order things so you as to beat depression.

Congrats to those who have collected their TRVs.

Best of luck to the hopeful smiley

Stay Blessed cheesy
it shall end with praises grin grin

But sir, about the guardian stuff... i have nobody there... though, am not applying to any school till am like 17... is there any other alternative??
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/study-minors.asp

check this link and prepare yourself for it...!!

Contact the international student office of the university you intend to apply to and ask whether they can assist you. there is a chance they have knowledge on this or have had this request before and may have designated personnel who act on behalf of international students who are minors.

alternatively, u can opt for homestay option and get a custodian thrrough this medium.... check this link http://canadahomestaynetwork.ca/for-students/ or this https://homestayfinder.com/searchhost.aspx?country=CA#.WP4U-cakLIU

NB: not very sure abt the latter but contact them and see how far it goes. Goodluck

Please house, am new here... who can give info on assiniboine community college In Brandon, Manitoba?

am planning on applying there for a diploma program..
after spending two years there, i want to transfer to Brandon University for my BSc..

what are my chances of getting a study visa coz am just 15yrs... almost through with waec... my parents are my sponsors...

my preferred course is computer science or any related field...

i also heard that the embassy dnt give out visas easily to applicants coming to study in a college..

how true is this??
1. why dont u go the school's website and contact their admission or intl office if u have any queries http://assiniboine.net/international-students

2. why don't you apply for BSc straight forward as securing a TRV for a diploma will be much tougher than a BSc

3. Your parent being your sponsors is a plus
4. You have to get a guardian over their since you are below 18 years
5. Getting admission to college is less easier than in university hence an attractive medium for less genuine students to use this medium in our part of the world. But hey, if u cant proof your case to the VO then you will end up smiling at the end of the day.

i will advice you to go for BSc please...you can start by selecting 3-4 schools you intend to apply to and contact their admission of office if you have any query. Goodluck

Please I need some clarification concerning online application. Please help if you know the way forward...
1. How do i get my UCI Number? There is a space on one of the forms to input it
2. I have a sibling without identification or birth certificate - can i still include his name? I am unsure of reaching him
3. Apart from the documents indicated for upload, where should i upload other documents like my certificate, police report, my assets, employment letters etc
4. The IMM Forms - Can I save them and come back to continue later? After completing the IMM forms, does the validate button mean it is complete and I have signed, or will I be required to do the electronic signing again?
5. Do I need to print out any of the forms to compete by hand?

Sorry for the long questions - I would appreciate your help please

Thank you
1. UCI number is for applicant who have applied for canadian visa before... If it's ur first time you will not have a UCI number so leave it blank.
2. Yeah u can include his name if u know if details (eg. his date of birth)
3. I guess u r going for an online route... check page 0 for the procedure (STEPS TO CANADA ONLINE VISA APPLICATION)
4. Yeah u can save and comeback later. If u finished filling it the validation button to validate the form and this procedure automatically check if u filled all mandatory parts. No need to sign again if its online route.
5. No need for this since you are going for an online route. Even for paper route it's advisable to fill it electronically and print it afterwards

Goodluck

@oluwaCanny its an UG programme and he's a custodian to my late father's rights so its basically my parent's entitlement...He's my guardian my, dad's cousin...Do u think UWindsor is on the high side and can one meetup with Sept 2017 applying for another schl??Pls reply thanks
well the advice u were given earlier by the gurus was based on the assumption that u were going for a two years study. For UG studies the financial burden is huge since the duration may be more than two year (usually 4 years).

Also, why dont u look at school which are cheaper with regards to your area of interest... check this link http://emakgaga..com/2014/07/list-of-affordable-universities-and.html

NB: please note that this was written in 2014.


based on the info u provided, it wil be tough to convince ur a difficult VO with regards to proof of funds. So find a cheaper and please check ther fees before u apply. Goodlcuk

i got admission to university of windsor, Tution is abt 13kCAD per term and i heard its 2terms per year, Thats abt 26k, My sponsor works with fedral govt and is stable enough but currently has only 7m in his account but i have a 1kCAD for my tution deposit, Now my question will this be sufficient for a sponsor to havr since he has a steady flow of income??Awaiting response,thanks.
1. what level of study are u going for; master or uG??

2. who is ur sponsor? parent or uncle?? because if it's an uncle then even 8m wont be enough unless you have already catered for fees. Ask ur self why will an uncle give u a significant amunt of his saving about 95% or more. If it''s an uncle u ve to show proof of relation as well.

3. 1k cad is totally insignificant looking at the fees in question unless its part of meeting a conditional offer,

Hello Everyone,

I just collected my passport now and I was rejected based on two things.

1. Purpose of visit
2. Travel history

Am shocked with purpose of visit because, the essence of this is schooling, and it relates to my work experience, and for travel history I have never travelled out of the country, what could be happening??

House kindly shed more light on this
sorry for ur delay..!! sad sad
Can you give a little brief profile about yourself touching on program u did during your UG studies, intended program and how it relates with ur UG and or current work.... i guess u pgd or pdc applicant

For travel history dont worry too much about that.

Also, order for gcms file as soon as possible.

The police report can't be gotten on the same day if done in Abuja because they will still need to send it to Lagos for the authorised signature. VFS Global staff even told me that the police report is not necessary. I did not include it in my application.
not necessary?? i believe u wanted to say not compulsory during submission but the VO may request u to get one prior to approval of ur study permit

I got admission to a masters program at the university of Ottawa for sept 2017.I am about applying for visa.The program charges 9000 cad for a semester and the program can be completed in 3 semesters.I need your help with answers to the following.
1.What are the essential documents to submit for the visa.
2.Will a statement of 95000cad be enough.
3.The school does not require me to pay any compulsory fees as a an admission acceptance requirement.Can I apply for visa without paying part of the school fees.
3.My uncle will be sponsoring me.He has a Moslem name and I have christian name.Please will it affect my application.Also how to i prove my relationship with him.
1. I believe u shd check page 0 of this page(popular chopping trv documents) and or this link www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/study-how-documents.asp#doc4

2. yeah a statement of 95,000 cad is more than enough if it has good turnover (inflow and outflow) and also source of funds can be proved.

3. Yeah u can apply without paying a ''dime'' of the fees but if u have the means to pay then i will encourage u to do so as it reduces the burden on ur SoA and a clear proof of commitment since ur fees is very huge (27000 cad for the 3semesters)

4. It wont affect ur application if u can shw proof of your relationship with him and his commitment to sponsor you... You can show proof of relationship using ur parents birth certificate and your uncle's birth certificate as they will have the same parent.

Goodluck

Thank you bro for your swift reply, but am hearing info that some applicants are being given TRV without medical call and their programs are more than 6months. Does this happen often or once in a blue moon and has this happened in this thread before..

Thanks
if it happens then it's an oversight by the VO in question if program is more than 6months or the applicant involved is from a country where medical is not required. I read on this thread where an aplicant claimed to have got his TRV without medicals but this is an exception rather than the norm.

Hello Guru in the house.
A big thanks to you all, for been there . God bless you.
Am about applying for my study permit. Is Police clearance certificate one of the documents to upload?
And what are the documents i have to upload?
Thanks
callmevinc@gmail.com guys pls help .
i will encourage u to add police report even though i read in the past of someone getting trv without it. Please add it as suggested by CIC http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/index.asp (check this)

You use the word upload suggesting that u will be using the online medium. If so, i will encourage u to check the page 0 of this forum for STEPS TO CANADA ONLINE VISA APPLICATION.

lastly, on the document u have to upload... Check this cic link http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/study-how-documents.asp
You need the following documents to apply for a study permit:

Proof of acceptance
Proof of identity
Proof of financial support
Letter of explanation (if need be)
Other documents (such as academic qualifications etc..)

Also, check this document composed by tnuola- a list of TRV chopping docs , as listed by the applicants

To be frank, the above address should suffice. No VO would hold u for not getting the address right.

Honestly am tired! Getting a supervisor for masters study in Canada is more difficult than getting the visa itself.
I have sent countless emails to all the supervisors in the program I want to study but they all gave me one or two excuses. I don't really know what else to do.
Considering the fact I have been delayed before cos I was going through pgd, I would have applied for another pgd course but am afraid I may be delayed again.

Hi guys, how y'all doing? Pls yh? in the history of this Canada study permit application trend, has anyone been issued a trv without a call for medicals, cos my uncle just said he has seen people been issued without a call for medicals, we were arguing about it and I didn't believe him.
If it's a course with a duration of not more than 6 months then it's possible otherwise i will assume it's an oversight the VO(the only possible logical conclusion). There is no need to argue over this as time will be the best judge as to whether or not he is lying grin grin grin .

You ONLY require a YES tick on the box that asked "if you have been refused visas/permit... of Canada or any other country.

The explanation box will not take more than 2 lines of a sentence... So you have to input a very brief (summarized) reason; which in most cases for US applicants you may not really know, ..... even the refusal paper will usually not carry a reason!........
you may still however attach the paper and note in box as 'proof attached'.

The third box should be a NO unless you have applied to CIC anytime in the past.... either granted or refused.

Pls be careful about this!!!!..... The notice is now boldly pasted in the VAC offices since our desperations have shot the frequency of misrepresentation to unimaginable levels! And you must have noticed CIC has not been granting pardon on these cases in the recent times.
Good luck all!!
Thank yu very much for the swift reponse guys (including nelly,Osemigho, Eraytee)

For the third box i applied to CIC and was refused based on insufficient funds in november.
