Greetings All,

I submitted my previous application as self sponsor. The application was refused due to financial establishment as seen in GCMS. I submitted a SOA of 7.2 million for a one year course (tuition $8,250). I wanna use my cousin as a co sponsor. He has around 15 million in his account. We bear the same surname. I want to know the document to attach in my second application to show that we are related and he is my cousin.

What's the best way to address these negative note?.

NwanyiOkpa u are funny

Thank you for your advice/encouragement my dear brother Frank. I will surely do as advised. You have always been a wonderful and selfless person. God bless you forever.

I regret to hear your VISA was delayed. Having read through the GCMS note, the visa officer has grave concerns that you've no travel history that could count as a positive factor in their assessment. The bank statement you provided in support of your application has modest income with huge deposits into the account from a third party (no source of huge income). The visa officer also highlighted your poor and limited economic ties to Nigeria which can motivate your departure after studies. Given the above information, the visa officer is not satisfied that you're a bonafide student to Canada and that you will not have the funds to pursue you intended program in Canada and leave after the authorized period of stay.


Please put your yourself together as this is but a stepping stone towards your ladder of success. Get your bank statement properly accessed the second time, try to explain every lump sum deposits that came into the account towards the time of your application by providing verifiable evidence and proofs. Your LOE should do justice to your home ties to Canada by explaining to the visa officer that your intention is solely to pursue your intended program in Canada and depart after studies.


At the end, get a professional to review your application and vet your letters to be sure you've adequately overcome the concerns raised on your last application.



Your success story is right around the corner, NEVER GIVE UP!!.


It will end in praise.

CIC News / 2020 / August / Online courses started before study permit approval count toward PGWP
Online courses started before study permit approval count toward PGWP
International students who have to study online due to coronavirus closures will not be penalized when applying for a Post-Graduation Work Permit.
August 4, 2020 By Shelby Thevenot

The time that international students spend studying online from outside Canada now counts toward a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP).


When Canada initially relaxed the PGWP requirements to include online study as part of the eligibility criteria, it only counted after international students were approved for their study permit.

Now the time international students put into their courses before getting their study permit counts as long as their program starts in 2020. They also have to apply for the study permit before September 15 and at least half of their program must be completed in Canada.

Get help with your study or work permit

Up until December 31, 2020, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will not deduct the study time completed outside Canada from the length of the PGWP.

Canada’s immigration department has made sweeping changes to the eligibility criteria for the PGWP in light of the challenges international students face while trying to complete their studies during the coronavirus outbreak.

Among these challenges is the transition from in-person classes to online study. Before the pandemic hit, the PGWP only recognized in-person classes. This is no longer viable with so many Designated Learning Institutions (DLIs) switching to online courses.

If you haven’t applied for a study permit yet
Most international students must apply for their study permits online as ports of entry are not issuing visas during the pandemic.

Canada will accept incomplete applications for study permits. The new two-step study permit system allows international students to start studying without being fully equipped with a study permit. The full study permit, which will eventually be needed if international students want a PGWP, will be issued once all documents are submitted and the application is approved.

How a PGWP can lead to permanent residence
The PGWP gives international student graduates the opportunity to work in Canada for up to three years after the end of their study program.

PGWP holders can use all their years of Canadian experience toward an application for immigration. Most immigrants to Canada go through economic-class immigration where Canadian work and study experience are highly valued toward an application in the Express Entry system.

Express Entry manages applications for Canada’s three Federal Skilled Immigration programs: Federal Skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program, and Canadian Experience Class.

PGWP holders can be eligible for any one of these programs depending on their experience. They must first submit a profile into the Express Entry system and become an Express Entry candidate.

Express Entry candidates are given a score based on the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). Candidates are ranked based on factors that the Canadian government has determined will support the labour market. Points are awarded based on a candidate’s age, work experience, education, and language ability in English or French.

The highest-scoring candidates are issued an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence through an Express Entry draw. The next draw is expected to happen this week, based on how the government has been holding draws about every two weeks this year.

Documents can be BLUR and still be readable by the visa officer. To be honest with you, there are applicants I know who bothered themselves about submitting blur documents to IRCC but later got their VISA approved. Once the documents are clear to an extent, I don't think it's worth being worried about. You've done your part as a human, its time you commit your application into the hands of the creator to take absolute control of the visa officer's discretion.



It will end in praise.

Exactly what I always want to hear at this time. I already have committed it to the hands of the Creator. Prayer is the key. I have hope that makes not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us . Only God can turn mistake to miracle. Thanks boss @Frankrobbn. You always inspire me.

@Frankrobbn, Boss I greet you. After trying to compress my documents to get the below or 4MB specification most seemed blur but I could not help it because I had just one day to submit my application or risk my profile to expire. I hope it's not a red flag to submit BLUR documents ?

I received this email from my school tonight



Dear Student,



I wanted to make a few things clearer for you as I am getting many E-Mails regarding these issues.



1. You do not need a valid student visa/study permit to register online.



2. If you register and do not get a study permit on time you can be refunded your full deposit, except for the $98 confirmation fee, which is non-refundable.



3. As you are international students the estimated fees are showing $3300 tuition, but you have that paid, so only the other amounts indicated apply.



4. You do not need to make any payments when you register online. All other fees are due by October 6th.



5. If you do not get your study permit on time to enroll in classes by the deadlines already provided we can explore other options.

...

AMEN

THANK YOU !!

New two-step process to study in Canada in fall 2020
IRCC has released details on how the new two-step study permit process will work for international students.
July 20, 2020 By Shelby Thevenot

Canada released new information this morning on how to obtain a study permit for the fall 2020 academic year.


The coronavirus outbreak has made it difficult for international students to get the documents they usually need for Canadian study permits. The Canadian border is also closed to most international students. Students are only exempt from travel restrictions if their study permits were issued before noon on March 18.

Even then, border officers may refuse entry to exempt international students if their program can be done online.  International students still need to be in Canada for an essential reason. If their courses are offered online and they can study from home, that could make their reason for travelling to Canada “optional” or “discretionary.”

See if you are eligible to study in Canada in fall 2020

However, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) is introducing a new two-step approval process that will allow international students to start the semester online without a finalized study permit. Today, the immigration department unveiled new instructions for its officers on how to proceed with the temporary changes.

IRCC stated last week it is aiming to process complete study permit applications that have already been submitted as quickly as possible.

Students who want to take advantage of the temporary two-step process have until September 15 to apply for their study permit.

How to obtain a study permit for fall 2020
The first stage is much like the regular study-permit process. International students have to submit:

letter of acceptance;
Certificat d’acceptation du Québec (for Quebec students only);
proof of funds;
proof that they can leave Canada when they no longer have legal temporary or permanent status; and
any family ties to Canada.
Immigration officers will assess these applications and issue pre-approval at their discretion. International students can begin studying at this stage.

To get the full study permit, and eventually be able to travel to Canada, international students will need to submit:

Immigration medical examination
Security-Police certificates
Biometrics
Regular requirements for Student Direct Stream
International students who are applying under the Student Direct Stream (SDS) are only eligible for the expedited study-permit program if they can submit a full application. Otherwise, they have to apply under the regular process or wait until they are able to supply all the necessary documents to be eligible for the SDS. IRCC also says that there may be delays.

The SDS aims to process study permits in 20 days. Currently, international students are eligible if they are from the following seven countries: China, India, Morocco, Pakistan, Philippines, Senegal and Vietnam.

Online study is now eligible for Post-Graduation Work Permit
The full study permit is needed if students want to complete their program in Canada, and eventually apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) to work in the country after they graduate.

IRCC previously changed the eligibility requirements for the PGWP as designated learning institutions changed their in-class programs to online. International students will now be able to do to half of their program online and still be eligible for the work permit that could allow them to stay in Canada for at least three more years.

The PGWP is important because it enables international students to get the Canadian work experience they often need to become eligible for Canadian permanent residence. Express Entry and the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) are among numerous immigration pathways available to international students who complete their studies in Canada and get qualifying work experience.
