Hello everyone, great job y'all are doing here. Pls can someone kindly explain this stock business to me? I've been reading from page 6000 and I can only infer that it's buying and selling. Is it all to it?
How do one know when to buy?
How are the purchases done?
I know that experience will teach me which shares to buy or not buy, but kindly educate a lay man like me that is new to all this. Thanks alot

Ah.. MR in 2 days? Amazing.. This is looking good from where I'm sitting so congratulations.
Their trend state that AIP was for applications before 15th September for fall 2020.. There's been exceptions to this rule so who knows for sure? Just stay hopeful and be checking flights

Lanrelala:
Hello house, please is there anyone who applied after September 15th for January 2021 intake and has AIP?

2nd time applicant:
I applied September 21
Medical Request September 23
Medical passed: October 6

No AIP.
With the new IRCC trend, is this a good sign?

I suggest you ask this question in the Living in Canada forum.. I'll recommend Mechanical sha

Thermodynamics:
They all align with my work experience, I know what to write on my statement of purpose for each course.

but what I'm after now is the job prospects of the 3fields.

Plenty persons have gotten approval without Police certificate.. They have ur previous submission so I don't think you should submit another. The 3 months duration na naija parole

Ckechi:
Thank you. But do you know anybody who has applied without one and it was successful? I just don't want it to be a problem.

I'm assuming that you submitted hers as sufficient as it was in your previous application and it wasn't still enough for them.. I've seen people get approval without submitting theirs and the one of their sponsor was enough for the VO.. Maybe you can have her transfer funds to you and explain why she's investing in you. It is a fact that no 2 applications are the same so we can only speculate as luck is the ultimate in this. Cheers

chloe3:
Yes my personal finance is low at the moment but my sponsor which is my sister will be covering all my expenses with a statement of $54,000 USD. My question is, do i need to submit my own bank statement along side her's ?

This is like the first notes I'm seeing that seems really truthful. I'll agree that the VO did his /her job well for being this detailed, it shows that the application was properly assessed. If I was young as u, I'll do a 1 year MBA here in Nigeria and enter the Express entry pool. With high scores from IELTS and increased work experience, your score will be very high in a few years and you will get it if PR is still available, and no VO will be able to discretionarily deny u visa.

But if you choose to reapply, I don't know what else you can change since you confirmed that your personal and financial assets are low.

Refusal reason from GCMS note

Applicant is a 27year old single Nigerian. Applicant is employed as asst project manager. Applicant holds a bsc. In technical education. Applicant is applying to study project management in Centennial College in Toronto.
I have considered the information provided by the applicant, given applicant previous education/employment history and the high cost of studies in Canada, this doesn't appear to be a logical progression of study/career. Given the economic motive to remain in Canada, the applicant incentive to remain in Canada may outweigh there 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 authorized for there stay. Application refused: ties, purpose.

Please gurus in the house. I want to re-apply
Initially my bank statement was not included because sincerely am broke and my sponsor is the one covering for all the expenses. Do i need to include my account statement since on my first application I provided a study leave from where am working. And can i change my program of study in my first application was project management, and it wont raise any red flag to ensure progression of study. But i currently work as an Assistant project manager

Yes. You can do your medicals as well if you choose to do it upfront before they officially request for it. If you'll be traveling from another city, it will be cost effective to do both at once. Hopefully, it will be successful in the end. Good luck

Meanwhile, how did you pay $235? Naira or dollar card? Seems CBN have calm down small

lambsbread:
Hello guys.
I have submitted my application to CIC.
I have also gotten the Biometric instruction letter.
Can I do my medicals alongside the biometrics even when i haven't gotten instructions to undergo medicals?

You'll need to raise a webform and attach whatever you want to submit.. Just Google Canada webform and the link will pop up for you to fill your application info and upload a file / merged files less than 3.5MB or so.. Good luck

Tobyy10:
Good day all
I thank you all for your answers toward my misrepresentation of my statement of account which was termed fraudulent .

Please how do i send the letters and the new statement of account back to the visa officer as their email was not attached to in the letter i got from my gckey and there is no place on my gckey page to upload the documents
Thanks

Pls find another school.. This money is too much na.. When will you recover the investment?

ayyoshert:
Thanks.
The 26k is for a year though, the 52k is for the whole program.

Pls what was the duration between you first and 2nd application.. I'm wondering if it had something to do with it.. This ur case is nerve wrecking.. Be calm sha, it cannot be worse

fehinebony:
Thanks for your response.
The medical request was sent( most likely) after that decision was made. And AIP was sent almost a month after.
Course of study Masters of Global Management
School Royal Roads University

I studied Computer Science and graduated in 2007. Worked for a while before I started my business in 2010.

This is my second application. My first application was refused based on purpose of visit and family ties in home country and canada.

My SOP was properly written, I addressed the initial reasons for refusal and added some claims.

Hi.. Sorry about your refusals.. Pls did you get a letter from the Asset managers of your Mutual fund stating that you can liquidate it anytime? I'm just wondering whether u added it to serve as home tie or it was purposed as proof of fund

Oghogho1313:
You are quite correct. To provide a bit of context. I applied in May and the elligibiity review was done a month later in June. So, from June to September no update reflected online via the ircc portal besides biometric done in August and medicals(Upfront) done in August. I hope they still give out approvals to everyone still waiting for approvals in the gcms notes. I am only saying its quite likely it might not be the case.

Send webform to update on deferment from Fall to Winter semester due to processing delays August
Biometric enrolment 24th August (Updated same day online)

Congratulations ma'am.. Ur own success loud
Kindly enlighten us on how you proved home ties. With an EE profile, I'm sure they were certain of your plans to migrate. Did you promise to return bla bla bla and what was served as ties?

Faithyyyyy:
goodevening house ,

i wish everyone a successful new week on this journey .
i have been getting lots of pms and i would like to drop this here for everyone.

Please OWN your study permit application process, sop , everything yourself because no one can sell you better than you can sell yourself. yes get tips and suggestions on what to do but ultimately do what you decide to do you are responsible for the outcome.

i had a lot of conflicting information and contrary advise but i stuck to my guns, paid my fees and started classes , i kept sending them web forms and emails with documents i knew i had uploaded. i sent my medical and it was updated the next day even though i had submitted all two weeks prior, before eligibility review started i sent course enrollment and tuition fees payment to add, next day my eligibility review started. then i sent ielts that i didn’t need to, i was sending them email two times a week monday and thursday. early hours of the morning with title: URGENT ATTENTION .

note that it may not work for everyone oooh. but my application was already 3 weeks and i wanted answers in time to resume fall.

please don’t let anyone discourage you at all. you can do it. i am looking forward to sharing my gcms notes with you all.

documents i submitted


Admission letter from University of Ottawa
medicals upfront
personal and company bank statement since i run my own business
vac documents for my business
cute family photos of me hubby and baby
transcripts and certificates undergraduate
first masters degree transcript (australian uni)
marriage certificate
passport with valid usa and canada visa
payment receipts for hospital and accomodation when i visited last year (had baby via emergency)
very long sop (6 pages with sub headings and sections for each point i wanted to address) use your discretion

i addressed clearly why i want to do a second masters in Canada and also why i have an active express entry profile because of the dual intent rules. i quotes it for them sef i think.

i appreciate all those who keep this thread going and whose words of wisdom helps us. God will surely come through for all those waiting. keep the faith alive

Wow.. You guys have no chill..
@Luckymama, please respond or reach out to me

Please what are the associated benefits apart from getting the approval eventually? Will they pay for the stress or the VO refund the expenses?

Frankrobbn1:
Strictly for those who can afford it because the associated benefits is worth it in the end.


It will end in praise.

Hello all, pls how's the engineering field over there in Finland?
Which schools can be recommended for Mechanical or Industrial Engineering?
Is there another means of immigration without using schooling?
Is there's a pathway to becoming a citizen of Finland?

Hi Newbie... Welcome .. When u say best, I wonder.. Anyway, Google search should be able to give u plenty options cos that's where Lekiboboe (our most resourceful ) will get answers for you from, but remember to check cost, admission requirements and most importantly, if the school offers PGWP afterwards.. When u've selected some schools, u can come ask to know if some old students are here for specific questions et al.. Good luck

SeunAde01:
I am new in this forum.
Good afternoon to my seniors, I salute you all. You are doing a great job here, trust I will join your association soon ...lol

Please I need your recommendation on best school to study in Canada.

With hope of starting in Fall 2021, Research based ( either scholarship or no scholarship, will like the option of scholarship though)
Course option: Computer Science or Data science
Working experience: 10 years
First degree: Computer Engineering with 2:1.

Thanks

Tonyodg:
Those who ordered notes and still didn’t get it within 20days this is a response from the gcms people provided it’s still within timeline you would receive it

Ah.. True true, no 2 application is the same in this Canada Waka o.. Pls how are u able to chat them?

Romeozigs:
Pls am new on this particular thread. I want to get all the information I can getmon how to secure an MSC to Canadian schools. I am an 2:1, Engineering student. I will really appreciate . Meanwhile I am going through this thread from previous pages

Long post alert.... Let me reply you as well as start practicing how to testify here jare

Good to know you've raised the CSE via webform.. I pray they review ur application favorably

jwon1:
Thank you Osemigho. I replied your comment same day but I couldn't find it and had issues making new comments.

Thanks also to Pee2jay9 and Time2Soar.

................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

I presently work with an International Education Foundation - so I oversee major IT / Data related operations of the foundation in Nigeria as well as Programs and other on the ground liaison responsibilities as seen on my reference letter and prior before this employment I have worked across 3 different industries within core IT positions (leading companies - Oil and Gas etc).

Just to add to the parent comment again, I did not mention the financial support of family members in my application to study in Canada. I solely presented available financial/economy ties that I am not using all my savings to pursue study in Canada.

I drew a family tree showing my family information, I attached my late dad burial poster (early this year). I lost my mum while I was just 6 years - so I don't even have any document on that, I only added her picture to the family tree.

I was invited to Istanbul by IBM Turkey as the representative of their local partner company in Nigeria regarding a big project we were working on as that time. Likewise, the opportunity to travel to New York following the invitation of my present firm. So, I only felt that can establish some sense of credibility and good profile towards my personality.

The investment is with an Agritech firm - I can share the opportunity with you if you want - lol.

I am only thankful to God for his Grace to have the profile presented. I also saw similar profile with a young lady of about 25 few weeks back on this platform. So, it is only God's grace.

I have written a rebutter on this through webform as eligibility and background check is still ongoing. I only feel that the reasons made are wrong to what I presented and I clearly tied this to my short and long term career goals.

By the way - is CSE same as webform? Thanks.

Congratulations.. Amazing news this Sunday.. So this people approved and forgot to give AIP especially as u're for fall.. Na wa for them o

mii4all:
Silent reader..but i thought to share this one.
Profile: BSc Engineering, 30+, Married, Banker, going for MBA @ UoT

2nd application 28th April
Revised LOE specifically targeting visa refusal reasons and VO's concerns as seen in GCMS notes
Upfront medicals
Medicals passed 26th May
BVL 26th May
No update since, no AIP
Started classes online without resigning 1st Sep
Applied for GCMS 1st Sep
Received GCMS 19th Sep

I suppose 'info sharing' as seen in the notes implies that PPR will happen when travel restrictions ease and normal operations resume.

It will end in praise.

Hi.. My honest apology since you felt offended.. That's obviously not my intention.. The analogy I used was generic not necessarily about the moniker.. Maybe my response didn't come out well. Either way, we move.. No insult intended pls

Osemigho:
The applicant is an education administrator. Except the applicant work for top schools, S/he would probably earn below 500,000 naira. You are the one assuming O/G worker and discussing salary outside of his profile. He asked for opinion and I offer mine based on his profile and ask more questions about the documents. It is offensive that you called my assumptions flawed but yours are out of the applicant context.

Please let’s stop the statement “if the visa officer ...“ People are here to learn and share ideas. If you want only visa officers opinion, applying for the visa will get you that. Thanks and God bless.

Congratulations dear.. God will perfect it
Pls how are the classes? Real time or recorded?

Faithyyyyy:
hi guys . it’s an approval alert .

thank you to frank and all the other veterans in the house .

i was admitted to two universities for a second masters so i chose University of Ottawa.


applied 17th August
Upfront medicals
Tuition fees for first semester paid using Western Union business solutions )Form A .
Eligibility review ; 4th September
GCMS 11th September yet to come
Approval 18th September
Home ties husband , our Canadian child and my company.
SOP SIX LONG PAGES WELL TITLED WITH SUBHEADINGS . i didn’t study english for nothing oooh .
i have already resumed classes and loving it. i will say keep your dreams close to your chest and don’t let anyone even a professional deter you. keep pushing.
i have an active EE profile with 462 points and aced ielts at first seating. after visiting canada last year i said ah , this place is calling my name everyday.

i was worried about a lot of things because i was confused whether to delete my EE profile but i explained in my SOP and said e go be things but not in my case abeg. I am grateful to God for his constant favour and mercies.

please keep believing. God will come through for you .

I understand ur point but most of your assumptions are kinda flawed.. An O&G worker that goes to the rig, even at that age, earn over 1M per month. This isn't speculation, i know this for a fact.. So what matters most in his application is whether he showed payslips and other proofs

As for the investment, it is outside the goal of this thread to be doing free adverts. If he had gotten the visa, we'll applaud his profile. Every VO should judge with verifiable facts on ground,
not just what their minds think is conceivable

Osemigho:
Think about this. A 26 year old applicant present a savings over 10million naira. The applicant have only worked for 3 years in a job that pays 300,000 naira (an assumption). Does that employment situation, work history, and age sum up with the savings? Will you not like to know how the person was able to save that much? Did the applicant explain this?

Obviously, this applicant cannot have saved 10m with the job, work history and age. Was the money inherited after parents death? What are the evidence of death and inheritance?

The thing about visa is convincing the officer in charge. If you are in charge, will you believe this whole package? I am not a visa officer. I am just trying to think out loud.

By the way, I still want to know the financial institution in Nigeria that gives more than 20% interest on investment. Please tell me the name of the organization.

Hi.. There are plenty businesses here that can give even higher interest rates.. Does it mean that the credibility of a business involved in can negatively affect someone's application? Can the age viz-a-viz financial strength be a reason to refuse his application? Na wa oh.. I think he should an email correcting their misunderstanding

Osemigho:
Incompatible employment and Education profile. Lack of evidence of your parent death. How are you able to save that much money considering your age and employment situation?

Personally I’m curious to know the financial institution that gave you 22% interest on investment. Also, I don’t think you need to be attaching letter of invitation to other countries. Your visa And passport entry and Exit stamps are enough evidence.

In my opinion, you submitted a solid application that looks too good to be true of your age, and employment and financial situations. This can be mere speculation because I am not a visa officer.

justwise:
@aLL

I just noticed that the antispambot is banning people randomly, please report it if you got banned.

Thank you

I've been banned twice in a week for nothing I can remember.. Simce i don't know how to report it, i just waited the 24hrs out. How do we report?

I don't think there's a Canada approved clinic in PH

Sleekigboguy:
I want do upfront medicals.. a friend suggested ph cause its close to me.. please can anybody help with verified hospitals in ph.. plus their fees

Fgmp12:
Bro, the bolded is wrong as the final decision has already been made and they are probably holding on the decision so as to not create any back logs (applicant reapplying before September 15) for themself. I believe almost everyone who failed eligibility and haven’t done their biometrics got the same first message on there GcMs note. I did too

How would u know that he's wrong? Are u a VO? U can only air ur opinion with facts or examples of why u think so, rather than calling another wrong

oma22:
I ordered for my GCMS notes, it came about 2 weeks ago and my visa has been approved, since April actually. I wonder what’s keeping the passport request.

A different kind of news is well needed.. Thanks for sharing and congratulations to you.. Can u share your timeline? Was ur medical requested for or up-front? Are u for fall? Did you get the AIP?

Chai.. Sorry o. Kindly share documents submitted

Onweke:
Submitted to IRCC 19th June, 2020
Ordered for GCMS note 22nd August,2020
Received GCMS from GCMSbuddy 15th Sept yesterday around 11.54pm

Eligibility FAILED.

Decision was made since 07, August 2020.

My profile now is still showing eligibility review and background check still in progress.

These plenty refusals is scaring the shit out of me, but Joyce Meyer admonishes us to DO IT AFRAID.. I will encourage us all to still keep hope alive

I really don't understand this Canny people.. They're still sending ITA to EE people & giving COPR to immigrants to come in even in this season, but treating study permit applicants anyhow. Is the corona with only students? Na wa

Hi.. Are u for fall or Winter?

NwanyiOkpa:
My application has clocked three good months now. No update at all.

Make i no talk anthing.

Awaiting GCMS notes. Hopefully should arrive this week.
