Yes it is

Ekulu77:
Hello
Please is astrazena vaccine acceptable to travel to Canada
I'll be awaiting your response
Thank you

If you get the new one in time then send it. Expiring passport is not a criteria for refusal, if they need you to submit a fresh passport they would ask for it.

iykedpetes:
Hello guys
I applied for my study permit with passport that will expire by March,i applied for a renewal since last year and dey are yet to give me ..hope its not a red flag and if i finally get the new one should i send it through webform ? Congrats to all that have gotten their PPR and those expecting will receive the good news

So if you travelling to Canada this is a list of what you should have ready.

1. Your flight ticket (obviously)
2. Negative PCR COVID test from government approved clinics
3. Your enrollment letter and/or travel document from your DLI. Trust me no airline will let you board without at least one of this.
4. When you get to Canada, I landed at Toronto Pearson terminal 1, you would be asked for correspondence letter then instructed to sit and wait, bear in mind you are not the only one coming for school.
5. Have ready hard copy of the following (it is written on a whiteboard): in no particular order:
a. Enrollment letter
b. Acceptance letter
c. Account statement
d. School fees receipt and/or GIC
e. Also log in to your student portal or email.

Now bear in mind they may not ask you to show all these things. In my case I only showed e-mail and I got my study permit and co-op documents. They can see all you filled on your application, so don't lie when they ask you anything. When I was asked for receipt I said I was yet to pay and then he asked me what my *** does for a living, so he knew that was my sponsor. Once you get your documents, you pick up your luggage and you would most likely be asked to do a covid test. The test is free.

I do not understand but I believe you are on top of things. Safe travels.

Fleshofmankind1:
I have the enrollment form

You have which form? A form is something you are to fill.

Fleshofmankind1:
Sorry I meant I have the form

Yes it should be a letter not a form. Since the airline asked for the enrolment letter and you have it now that should be okay I believe.

Fleshofmankind1:
Winnipeg is on Holiday now and I plan to fly tomorrow again ,I just paid my school fees on the 29th and got my receipt in my inbox ,I plan showing them at the airport I have an enrollment letter not a form ,please what does the house suggest please Winnipeg students here help me

I linked mine on the 23rd and it reflected on the 24th. However, I went back on 29th to link my new phone number and it hasn't reflected yet.

Perseverer:
Thank you very much for your response. ECO bank is the bank where I did my BVN, and they mentioned that it seems the BVN update platform is not updating changes for now, after trying to make changes several times. I don't know if this is true and if someone else has been able to link their BVN to their email address recently.

Your school is meant to issue you something called a travel document. It states that you are a student and enrolled and they are expecting in canada to start or resume classes, it would have your student i.d, name, course etc.. It may be asked for by the cbsa officer

Fleshofmankind1:
Am not happy Ethopian airline didn't allow me fly cause of an enrollment letter ,please someone should help with all docs he used in flying via ethopian airline,have weighed and paid all my excesses I had to reschedule my flight and book another covid test

Filling it doesn't take long and you can do that the day before your trip even two days before. Do not stress

Fleshofmankind1:
Hello everyone am travelling on the 29th of December so I went for my Covid test today by 2:00pm and the said it must be 72hrs f it to last am getting there on the 30th by 12:05pm , I guess I would still make the 72hrs , then please when best can I fill my arrival can ? Is it at the airport before my flight takes off .

Yes, sorry I mean no! Lol your blood pressure was high and you still over thinking things it can get worse o. Don't worry at all, its not an issue.

Creativeowos:
Hello guys, please i did my medicals at Qlife last week and my blood pressure was high, i was really surprised because am just 27years old. Do they refuse someone because of blood pressure. Please anybody that knows the perfect answer should reply please ���

This is very obvious you show no ties to your home country. I do not know if applicants go through the cic website step by step to research application requirements. It is clearly stated there you have to prove your purpose, financial capability and also you intend to leave canada at the end of your studies. You have demonstrated 2 and left out the last one. I guarantee you that the problem is not finance, it is ties. I used a statement of 7m, no tuition paid at all but I have my parents and a child. If it by money many applications would not be refused. Find a way to show ties. It was in both refusals and judging from what you said you did not tackle it after the first refusal.

HakHim:
Hello good morning everyone good morning to all the gurus as well.

It will be a long post and please I really need guidance and help/ advice.

Kindly read.

I have gotten two refusals.

My first application.....

I applied first early this year. Self sponsored. 18M in three banks all statements attached, but had lump sum deposit in one of them (sold some assets).

HERE WAS THE REFUSAL REASONS

"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 in your family ties in Canada and 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 personal asset and financial status."

REQUESTED GCMS....

HERE IT IS......

PA is self funded. Employment letter shows PA makes 16,000 annually. Funds provided are not commensurate to PA income. Transaction on bank statement shows lump sum deposit. Source of funds unknown. Concerns about funding. Bank statement to be verified.

{[/b] please note that in my SOP I stated there the businesses that I do I attached CAC OF MY COMPANY I ALSO PUT THE RECEIPT OF ALL EQUIPMENT THAT I HAVE FOR MY BUSINESS, so my only source was not just my salary, but I think I was judged based on only my salary as my only source of income}[b]

HERE IS THE REPORT FROM IMMIGRATION AND BORDER CANADA

"I have reviewed the application. the applicant is seeking to study in Canada. I am not satisfied that the applicants will leave Canada at the end of their stay as a temporary residence. I note that the client is single, mobile, is not well established and has no dependents. taking the applicants plan of studies into account the documentation provided in support of the applicants financial situation does not demonstrate the funds will be sufficient or available. I am not satisfied that the proposed studies would be a reasonable expense weighing the factors in this application I am not satisfied that the applicant will adhere to the terms and conditions imposed as a temporary residence. For this reason above I have refused this application."

SECOND APPLICATION.....

I submitted LOE, I explained the source of income, I gave a detailed financial table that shows how much I make from each equipments and how much I have in the bank. I used a sponsor (cousin) this time around he has 13M balance and sent me 2.6M for my first semester tuition.

I paid first semester tuition. I still submitted my personal bank statement of 17M. They verified my bank account from the first application and I also reminded them that the funds are still very much there seated for months now that it is mine....

Yet I still got a refusal ... Here is the reasons again from my refusal letter. I just requested for my gcms note

"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 in your family ties in Canada and 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 personal asset and financial status.".......


I ORDERED GCMS FOR THE SECOND APPLICATION, HERE IS WHAT IT SAYS....

[b]I HAVE CONSIDERED THE POSITIVE FACTORS OUTLINED by THE APPLICANT, INCLUDING STATEMENTS OR OTHER EVIDENCE.

THE APPLICANT HAS PROVIDED A REASON FOR THEIR VISIT TO CANADA

HOWEVER I HAVE GIVEN LESS WEIGHT TO THE POSITIVE FACTORS FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS

I NOTE THAT THE APPLICANT INTENDS TO SELF SPONSOR,

HOWEVER GIVEN THAT INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE OF ALTERNATIVE INCOME HAS BEEN DEMONSTRATED THE FUNDS AVAILABLE DON'T APPEAR TO BE COMMENSURATE TO HIS MONTHLY INCOME HENCE THE SOURCE OF FUNDS IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT IS NOT CLEAR INCLUDING ITS AVAILABILITY TO SUPPORT THE APPLICANT STUDY IN CANADA

I ALSO NOTE THAT THE APPLICANT COUSIN INTEND TO CO-SPONSOR studies however given the evidence of relationship/connection to third-party sponsor and the history of financial support are not sufficiently substantiated,I have concerns about the credibility of the sponsorship, limited obligation for the 3rd party sponsor to provide ongoing financial support.

based on the review of this document presented in support of this application the application appears not to be well established in the home country

I am not satisfied that the applicant to leave Canada at the end of their stay as temporary resident, I note that the applicant is not well established in home country has not demonstrated proof of dependent dependents. given the lack of family ties or economic motives to remain in home country the applicant incentives to remain in Canada may outweigh their ties to their home country

Weighing the factors in the application I am not satisfied that the applicant will depart Canada at the end of the period authorised for their stay

for the reasons above I have refused this application.[/b]


Please can you advice or let me know what next to do.... As I have addressed the concerns from the first application I even used a sponsor this time around.....

Most schools if not all. The thing is when you apply there is a part that states you put down your academic history. Slot in your bachelors and your pgd. As long as your PGD GPA is good, your chances of securing a masters admission is good. If you have work experience provide that too and make sure you have it all in your c.v. Write a compelling statement of purpose and you would be good.

approvalgirl:
Good morning Fellows,

Please which schools in canada accept PGD for MSC...


I just did my pgd program from Ajayi Crowther University and hoping to do my master in Canada...

If you need to use your money, go ahead. Your PPR will arrive soon

HHH3:
Greetings to everyone reading this. I am new in this forum and seeking for information. Please can someone advice whether it is okay for me to start using/spending the funds in my proof of funds account since I have passed the medicals and my status updated accordingly. I need to start using the money ASAP. I did not do upfront medicals. Also, is it normal to wait for so long after passing medicals without further information? Today makes it one month since my status was updated.

Angle from where? This person should show proof. His or her ticket and stamped pages on passport. Haba

SomBaby:
Another angle!

Please raise a webfrom to Nairobi directly.
State that you have done and passed your requested medical and expect a final decision to help you make timely arrangements. All things being equal they should do something in 5-10 working days from my experience. I sent a total of 3 webforms for various reasons and they took like 5 working days to do their stuff

BabajhideySammy:
Can someone help with a draft of mail to send to embassy requesting for an update on my application please. I applied in July and I had my medicals passed October 25, haven’t gotten an update since then. Although there was a time I logged on and saw “application update” has the status but there was nothing there, I’m guessing that’s the ghost update.

Thanks for this info

elenewton1:
Hi, thanks for sharing.
I sent my passport to Abuja on the 5th of November and received it on the 12th of November. I paid #8920 transmission fee.
I guess I was lucky.

Thanks for this info

viviangogos:
I sent my PP on the 3rd of Novemeber and I paid 8920 for mine and received it stamped...

Thanks for sharing. @jojorito007 said she was asked to pay the new fee and I checked and saw that the new fee was effective 1st of November 2021 that's why I asked. I also know someone who sent in November and paid 8920 and was fine. Anyways let's see how it goes.

Good day everyone,

I just noticed on be a website that the transmission fee for PPR is now 9410 effective 1st of November 2021. Has anyone encountered this or have people succeeded in getting passport stamped with 8920?

Really when did transmission fee increase to 9410?! Wow

Jojorito007:
Thanks for your response.
I included our PPR letters. Well I was able to get through with vfs customer care. I was told that I’ll have to pay transmission for my son as well. I also paid 8920 instead 9410 for transmission fee. I immediately did that and send to a friend in Abuja to help me retrieve the parcel in DHL office in Abuja ( I checked and I found out the documents was still in abj)
A friend helped to include the new receipt and then drop the parcel @ same DHL . I pray they deliver 2 morrow

I have carefully gone through your post, did you include the PPR LETTERS? BECAUSE ON THE PPR LETTER THAT IS THE ONLY THING REQUESTED FOR ALONG WITH YOUR PASSPORT.

Jojorito007:
Hi Lianna pls I need your help
I still have some concerns . I sent my passport and my 6 yrs old son passport to Abuja for stamping but I checked my tracking and I discovered that vfs failed to receive the documents and so the documents is on its way back to Lagos without visa stamp . I called DHL to know why but what they said that in most cases like that ‘ it could be that my documents was not complete …. I tried contacting vfs to know the right docs to send but Their phone has not been through.My younger son has a US passport.
I am so stressed right now..
This is what I sent
2 photocopies of my passport ,
2 consent forms
Documents received when I did my biometrics
Original international passport
Receipt of Transmission fee (N8,900)

For my 6 yrs old son
2 photocopies of his passport
Original passport
( he didn’t do biometrics so I didn’t add any consent form)
Please I need your guidance on the proper documents to send

Brossss. This your question ehn! This is a symptom of excess joy. Just wait for your LOA and travel at the appropriate. God be with you and your family.

mhozzis:
I sent my PP to Abuja on Monday and received it back today, Very fast.

I have deferred my admission to the fall of 2022 already and new LOA has not been issued by the school

Do I apply for a new visa when the new LOA is received or I can travel with the issued visa next year?

This information is false! There are schools in canada that DONOT charge a dime for admission application.
E.g. Northeastern university M.s project management to be precise. And there are others.

Anon123:
There are no cheap universities in canada and all schools collect $100cad application fees

Just write to your school or call them, give them your student ID number and request for tuition invoice for your 1st term.

Kidsister13:
Please i have come again with my wahala.

I'm expected to pay fees for the first semester on or before 12 November but the offer letter has fees for two semesters. How do I know the first semester fees to pay and where does my deposit fit in because I paid deposit already to get my acceptance. Centennial college. Please help. Thanks

Please let us tell ourselves the truth. IRCC states that average application time is 3 months. You submitted on the 12th of October, it is not up to a month and you are anxious? Even your institution advices to apply for study permit on time. Now there a slim chance that you can get approved before your start date but if it doesn't go that way, you will have to defer your admission. Additionally,
Calm your nerves and stay prayerful. What matters the most is getting approved.

Olorunjedaloraj:
Good day,

I have submitted my application for a study permit and uploaded all necessary documents. I applied via the NSE route and I was told that applications via this route are done in 20 working days. I submitted my application on the 12th of october including my IELTS result with a minimum of band 6.5 accross each section.

I did my biometrics on 14th october 2021 and it has been updated on my profile. However, the upfront medical was done on the 11th october and uploaded in my profile on the 25th of october.

my resumption date is january.

Is the NSE route really valid?

What is the way forward?

Thanks

Teeeee89:
Hi please I need help my study permit expires Aug 31 and classes ends around Aug 20 which means I result can't be out before Aug 31 for me to apply for PR. I was thinking of applying for an extension but I don't have valid reason because classes ends before expiring day

12 months

borvick:
Pls how long is the validity of the study permit medical test?

Realisticly speaking getting a job may take 1-3months. Pay, depending on hours he gets 500-900 a month.

sayittome:
Yeah. But his fears are:
1. What is d ease of getting a job?
2. And can he sustain himself from what he will be paid?

Fantastic, he can work 20 hours a week to sustain himself but he needs to show proof of funds to apply for the visa.

sayittome:
It's a full tuition. Masters programme.
Course is biostatistics

Upfront or on request. If upfront you would have to pick the next available date if the latter you would call them or send an electronic mail to get scheduled

borvick:
Does anybody know how l can book medical appointment at IOM Lagos, lve been trying to schedule an appointment and it is not successful please.

Since you have paid tuition for one year, have a GIC of 10k and a balance of 10k in your account , I firmly believe an affidavit and bank statement will suffice. In your Sop, please create a sub heading for finance e.g. list of financial documents and explanation. Start by saying you are primary sponsor but your sister is cosponsor. Then list documents you attached for proof of funds. tuition receipt, GIC of 10k, personal bank statement, affidavit of support from cosponsor, bank statement of cosponsor, sponsor employment letter and or ID.

Perfectyyyyyy:
Thanks.
She is actually in the US. Does she need to pay money into my account or just submit a statement of account and sworn affidavits of support stating that should be financially assist with money if I have any emergency need for money during my school.
