You have to confirm the admission requirements first.
As at last year during my application, you will only be required to write English test if the language of instruction in your undergraduate program is not English or your or your transcripts Is not written in English, then you may be required to provide a test of English result. Major schools in Canada waive English proficiency test go Nigerians.

You can use 'western union global pay' but you will have to source for dollar to pay into your Dom account.

Chrissybaybee:
Lol..no problem. But 'chilled mortuary standard' - choi... The one I know is Andre rose so that's what I'll give you lol. Meanwhile I went to the bank this morning and they said no form A for now and dat they don't have dollars. They started annoying me so I left. I actually met someone that said if I have a dom account, it would help but ild have to source for dollars myself. I have a dom account but if I can get usd, do u know how I can go about the payment? Sorry for my plenty questions please, last year when I paid fees, it was with form A. Pls the qtn is not only for michV but to everyone who has an idea on how I can pay using my dom account? I will really appreciate feedbacks because I have to pay by December else I'll lose my seat.

What sort of permit should I come with-study permit?

ucheokpara100:
come with permit from Nigeria after that you will apply for merminent residence.

Please I want to know the process of securing a permanent residence permit after studies. Do they have specific number of years one must spend before he/she can apply for permanent residence in S.A?

Check for the hotel booking per day and multiple it by the number of days you're gonna spend multiply by btw 24-34(rand to naira conversion) depending your bank charges. , plus your visa application fee (28,800 I guess) plus your ticket amount to and fro, (200,000++) depending on your airline you're going by, plus your miscellaneous expenses...feeding and all sort of..., if you are a big time spender, increase your wallet. No amount is too much depending on your taste and your luxury lifestyle. But u can't spend less than 350-450k naira.
Just my little cent.

Khez post=51217163 :
Hello, pls if I want to travel to SA for vacation just for 5 days, how much in total (range do u think it will cost me) i.e visa fees, hotel booking, flight & other processing fee.

Thanks

Six months!? I've applied to Witwatersrand and they said they will get back to me by ending of the month for admission which will make it Fourteen days after submitting application.

Ariel20:
My thoughts exactly...It took me six months to get an admission and he's saying they promised him admission in 48hours. Na wa for these agents sef

amicable09:

Kay how far that thing now? U don gt response to your mails?

KayPapi:
Bro..check for your desired program fees cause it's dependent.

And now michV e yaff turn up the room.

Was not a post-graduate admission.

BeingGabriel:
Hello @penitential,

As per UNB, did you post your statement of purpose on the portal during your application? I noticed it did not appear, maybe because not all courses require it.

The question 'why Diploma after B.sc and M.sc?' should be answer first. If the intended Diploma program is not related to your undergraduate and postgraduate course, then a better explanation as to why you want to go into that course may work. If its in correlation to your both undergraduate and post graduate program, I will tell you that you need an advancement and not a diploma as proposed. Thanks.

Nono16:
Good day fam,
Pls a couple of questions here.
I just got admitted for Fall 2017 to BCIT for a 2yr IT diploma program. So here's the thing: I recently graduated in May this year with an Msc in EE from a US univ.
I also have a BEng from a univ in nig .
The diploma in bcit seems really fabulous and poses to be a great deal breaker. I just hav 2yrs work experience from Naija but I doubt if that counts.

With the number of study visa rejections lately, I wonder what my fate might be with the VO's.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Ps: I already have a Canadian visitors visa valid for the next 3yrs.

It's you guys that have the time to waste responding to post like this. With all the points this guy has pointed out, its obvious he's either an agent or he's not well- inform as regard CIC. to start with,It's a big lie, why fooling yourself? I don't know what u will achieve in lying, VO are not fools. if you're not well-informed Oga, better you don't come here and blast jargons. Its obvious in her post that the 1.2m in her account is the remaninig balance inside (not inflow and outflow of cash into and out of the account) that's to tell you that with good inflow of cash in and out of your account statement, you're better off than someone with 200m inside the account without proper explanation to the V.O through the statement of account on how the money got there (which is a guarantee for visa refusal because it will be seen as lump sum. Secondly, the person here got a funding for her program. This is a very good and reliable source of funding to the V.O compared to all the bank statements we are tendering to the embassy ( because they know that the sponsoring body which is the school can hardly default in providing the fund)

Stop criticising using an agent, they don't force any applicant.I think you go to them yourself.
But, I have observed few things.
Using an expert will advise you on the followings.
Never apply for PGD, PGC, ordinary diploma if your age is above 24.
Ask why?
On the cic form, there is no space for pgd, only what u view is diploma, which is lower to bsc.
2, using an expert will advice u not to apply for Canada visa if u ve an hnd, because u can't get a masters admission, u rather apply for Pgc, Pgd which eventually lead to refusal.
3. An expert will view ur profile and advice u dat tuition deposit is not part of criteria they used in granting trv, and also assist u in writing a strong SOP.
it's unfortunate that most agent dont know all this.
I keep telling people, not everyone is qualified to apply for trv, screen urself before u apply, because visa fee is non refundable.
Good nite

. Oga, the most expensive agent presently in Lagos now is Plema if you can decode it. And I will say that they charge 510k for services like TRV, PR, WORK PERMIT, and let me tell you, I contracted them when I applied earlier for my TRV. (Not knowing that this tread exist) I will like to point out to you that all the points you just mentioned as to what agents are to do in advising all their prospective clients i will tell you emphatically that they themselves don't know it. After I've submitted my application through the so-called agent, I stumbled on this thread and after carefully following every posts, it later manifested to me that I've made a whole lots of mistakes in my application which the agent did not even tell me about. I already knew the likely outcome of my app after reading different refusals and lots more here. When my app was denied, I later went to the agents, and everything lambasted them for not telling me to do the followings before submitting my app and all. As I was pointing out all my flaws to them and the possible correction(s), they were all amazed I know that the question ( where will this seemingly uninformed guy when he came to us suddenly became informed to this extent?) Will be the question on their mind after that argument. I later knew that it wasn't as if they don't know the flaws contained in my application that might lead to refusal, but they know that once they point it out to me, i might feel discouraged And not apply again which means they're loosing 510k more than half a million. See lemme tell you Most business set-ups esp in Nigeria are only interested in making money either straight or crooked means they won't tell you the truth until they've pocketed your money. Why not think of this that this same so-called agent will break down their fees to
160k for TRV processes
350k for work permit, PR card.... And they will tell you that the whole money is payable before submission of your application whereas 350k is for services that won't come up until after a minimum of not less than a year or two? If they're not being dubious, why don't they collect the 160k for TRV alone and give you the option of either coming to them if you need for for work permit and PR card? Why is the remaining 350k nonrefundable even after you did not get TRV which obviously mean that the other services will not be provided? All these and many more are what we should look into and stop decieving ourselves with all these so-called agents. Broz abeg if you be agent and you want to promote your business, there's advert section on Nairaland where you can do that. And if you want to learn from the better and well-informed agent masters that doesn't charge their clients any penny, then you'd better be a silent follower. I drop my keyboard for now.[ quote author=michV post=50322080]i didnt even know why you responded to him with all that full page of notes.the lady has funding if not almost full funding for her duration of study in canada.that is to say it was a proof of funds coupled with that in her sponsor's account which to me it seems adequate..so i don't know why some people wouldn't go thorough on posts before "blabbing garbages"[/quote]

Na me hail you pass brother.

Riddeek:
Boss!!! I hail ooo!!!

Yea, you're right! And that why I said there's more hope to second application to first if denied. Its obvious that Canada quota for PGC intake is extremely small. To get PGC TRV, you've got to be prayerful and be ready to present a flawless application.

michV:
bro some people still get refused in re-application oo even after seeing the gcms file notes more especially if you are for PGC program. You never see where you don tackle all the reasons in reapplication,the Vo go find another excuse like "study plan is inconsistent with previous education"i saw that on ones Gcms, bro laff wan kill me die..i said this VOs are wicked atimes.To be safer in this journey i would prescribe master's program to future or intending applicants..bro getting TRV with PGC this days na luck as it used to be before

Exactly what I was thinking.

michV:
you have provided the detail i was expecting to see as you have responded to your questionaires..i was like,you had less than/equal to 1.2million in account statement and you got TRV? @bolded above has made it convincing since you were given funding by the school which is also meant to serve as a proof of funds available during visa application

Not master, its PGC bro.

klawaaa:
Bro, did you secure admission into course based program or Research based. I think that Research based admission is like a rocket science things!!!

Yea, its just that if one is not well informed for the first application, denial is moat likely as CIC dey para dey deny people with silly silly excuses. I bet that no one on this forum denied once should be denied twice cos every likely reasons for denial has been tackled. If am submitting my next application, na to dot all the I's and cross all the T's.

michV:
even for the TRV,once you don fill the CIC necessary forms with checklist and prepare you sponsorship,other documents na gather gather..

Abeg!!! I did my admission myself and I got admission into four different school- dalhouise university , UNB, Algonquin, Conestoga, na TRV be the real issue, admission is the easiest.

michV:
Bro you dey see am as i dey see am oo...when an agent as i have repeatedly said has zero(0) influence on ur visa application especially canada study permit that is mostly treated outta Nigeria and school admission.Even some reputable agencies in Nigeria that affiliate with some schools abroad don't charge you anything in getting you admissions expect in cases where application fee is required..
I told one guy earlier,just flex me and i feel alright and i will provide mediocre free application for study visa with Masters admission oo.the guy bone me carry money enrich agent.now na laugh i dey laugh am for my mind when he was recently refused.

Admission at 250k...
Na GOD talk say make we go school o, all dis agents for the make money pass senators Oooo. Abeg with 50k (application fee inclusive ) I go help you apply and u go get admission Ooo.
Don't fall for any agent, u can do it yourselves admission is the simplest.

tzipporah:
MRD at brandon university. I met an agent and he asked me to bring 250000 to process my admission can you imagine

michV:
bro here no dey sweet me again,e come be like grave yard sef..i could remember when it's evening,the thread starts hitting up with funny debates,para-moods, funny tales and quotes..na CIC cause am sha after toiling with people's hopes and the successful ones are busy in canada too..some people don vex but i am likely to see them come back here next year to testify if they are still loyal and have love for here. Here grounded me well that i so challenge agents but i wldnt allow selfish individuals here to take edge of me anymore. Imagine a lady here PMd me,pleaded for help consistently both mails and chats for me to make contacts with some people travelling to canada so that s he can send things along.i was busy making contacts and pleading with successful people on my whatsapp chat to assist,since some cldnt assist cos of distance/loads which i gave feedback to the lady, after some days na delete she delete me.Na y i no dy answer PMs from any feminine gender unless i didn't check well to know it's a feminine gender from Nairaland again especially from this canada thread cos some na use dem wan use you..but @pen...you come scarce for 3months..e be lyk say you go revive after CIC Matter,come back for rematch

guy, I actually went to consider other options joor. I told you about the Aussie stuff now, but presently am hoping for my admission to S.A, then after I can retry maple land for master sha. How that your link with that guy as pertain Germany? Yemdogg just quiet finish.

This thread is just so boring this days.....gone are those days when we use to laugh and forget CIC torments. Chaii!!!!!!!e just be like say people wey resume for September just carry the happiness of this thread go....reghinah, cassetteboy, urchbunny,hayqinsbFX....everybody just silent.
