SoftdudeKay:
Hello house, I arrived in Canada last Saturday and I’m currently in Toronto. My program start date is May 8. Please, do we have any group chat for Hanson College? Or Hanson College, Brampton campus? Or Nigerian students in Brampton? Or if you are in Brampton. Please kindly add me or reach out. 07036412417.

Thanks in advance.

Here 👋 what province are you going though.

Army2022:
Any September intake traveling by July ?? Hope I'm not alone.

May ppr testimonies rain here soon, I hope to board with fellow nairaland students in same flight

Hello Everyone… please who is traveling in July to New Brunswick (miramichi) please let’s connect.

You’ll be having problems when you get to the POE. So don’t try it. You’ll have to reapply to the school so they can send you a new LOA. If you can’t wait that long, another option is to apply to another school maybe for May intake, get your LOA and apply for visa again.

Jnsionu4:
Good day nairalanders, I would please love your advice on this my situation.
So I got admission to a program for fall 2022 but my study permit came in December. The school withdrew my application because my study permit came late. On my letter of Acceptance, it states that the expiration of the acceptance is 19th September 2022.
The program doesn’t have winter or spring term only fall for 2023. And sadly the school doesn’t even have any program for winter or spring terms.
Is it possible for me to travel with this letter of acceptance to Canada, and when I reach there I could search for another school? My study permit is valid till 2024

It has started

NGOZIGLORI:
To be honest, I don't even know what eligibility review will be like when it starts. Because the below write up is when on the portal for eligibility so I don't know if it has started or not

Review of eligibility- Review of eligibility
We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.

That’s not true, at least to the best of my knowledge. It all depends on the time stamped in your visa. We’ve seen people that had PPR and travelled six months after.

pittoilet:
Hello my people is it true that you have 90days from when study permit was approved to travel to Canada?

My study permit was approved in late September but I didn’t receive my passport till October and I am due to travel in few day for January resumption.

Has your passport been stamped? If yes please raise a webform and send mails too.

ANGELAFELIX:
Good evening everyone

I’ve not gotten my LOI yet and I was wondering if I should send webforms or emails.

Congratulations to him! Yes he can walk in, he should get it by Monday. Heard it’s now fast.

CindyByFine:
My Senior Ogas,

How do we handle his passport submission!

My brother is currently in Abuja and his Biometrics was done in Abuja too.

Can he walk in and submit by himself? What does he need to do that?

I want him to do the Passport Submission tomorrow.

Try Facebook market place, kijiji too
You can use your Nigerian license there.

pwettyhardey:
Good day everyone
Please which website is the best to look for houses. My sibling just got his visa and he’s going to mohawk college in Hamilton and looking for accommodation.

And please which license can one use to drive in Canada?
Is it just international license or both Nigeria and international license?

Thanks

You’re still to receive some more mails after this. It will state that it is ready for collection.

PPR Alert!

We woke up around 3:30am and saw four do not reply messages in our mail.
First time applicant! PPR study visas for my wife and 3 children (8, 6, 4). Below is the time-line. I will post documents submitted soon! I’ve sent their passports to Abuja this afternoon.

Thank God and special thanks to this wonderful thread and all contributors. I got a lot of knowledge here and we did it ourselves. I pray for all those waiting.

Cheers!

Pay your confirmation fee of CAD 500, if you haven’t. I’ll advise you to pay your tuition if you can. After that, use the LOA to apply for visa, I hope all your documents are ready? You’re good to go if they are.

I wish you success.

Simyowe:
Hello Fam,

I have received my letter of Acceptance (LOA) from NBCC. I need help on the next steps to go. All gurus pls help. Thanks

After your medicals, you’ll be given a slip, upload the slip through webform, either of the medical Centre you use will still send your medical result to IRCC.

If you meant if I have my PPR, yes I do.

Moyosore019:
Please how did you do it? How did you send the report too? Have you gotten a response from them?

Congratulations!

Morai123:
Thanks everyone for the advice and feedback. I just got my PPR

Yes you need to notify them so you won’t have problems at the POE

johnfem321:
Hello everyone.. I currently have a my student visa application pending.. I found out a few weeks ago that my admission letter has expired.. I contacted the school and got a new admission letter for 2023.. do I need to notify Canada immigration that I have a new admission or it’s not necessary to inform them ?

This is a beautiful experience. I wish you all the best in Canada!

Landing gist

i got my ppr on the 23rd of sept. i'm so glad I booked my flight (8 dec) that same day because i got the best deal on Ethiopian airline.

Flight time from Abuja airport to Addis Ababa was 1:30 pm. Due to delay we left at 20 mins to 2 pm or there about.

I took some food items. I wish i took more because i didn't pass through bag checking and weighing wahala. An insider intervene for me (someone i know).

I only paid for wrapping of my luggage

Not a bad experience for first timer on an aero plane

Food served were good through out the journey

Travel documents
flight ticket
covid 19 vaccination card
Admission letter
passport
letter of introduction
fee payment receipt
No enrollment since my enrollment start on the 12th
No arrive can filled***

At the Abuja Air port i only submitted passport, covid 19 card and flight ticket

My cream(500ml) was confiscated at Addis ababa. i was told that they don't allow any liquid substance above 100ml on the flight. so don't put those things in carry on bag.

Nothing much in Dublin since we didn't alight the plane. Just stopped for some maintenance and refuel though it took longer than usual due to shortage of man power because of the weather.

Eventually, i was live in canada on friday 9 dec at 9:20am local time. Massive airport, naija na joke among the three airports. I sharply connected to the wifi reached out to my elder brother and a dear friend who has been engine oil to these processes. Joined the long queue it was fast though because there are lot of self declaration machines. Scanned my passport and answered the questions that followed. Afterward i was directed to the study permit unit. Load of us were there for that, so they one requested for letter of introduction (that letter received after passport is stamped). Not so much time taken study permit and work permit for courses with coop were issued. I quickly saw an officer who signed on my passport with some details fro the two piece of documents after receiving mine.

omo we don set ooo, i waka go search for my loads. then head straight to meet my brother. we hug each other he don tey wey i don see this lovely guy.

Around dat area he quickly help me got my fido sim. as we reach outside the weather of canada give me a serious handshake.

I jam my friend outside hug the baba. We jumped into car. They where prepared before i landed. They carry me go do my SIN menh this saved me from some expenditure. Transport na wahala here as my bro no dey this province.

It has been a smooth journey. Thanks to Jehovah God

Those on their way and those coming soon safe flight.

Those waiting on IRCC please don't loose hope. Jehovah will always come through for you

To the person who deleted my testimony on my PPR earlier on this account(timagbo) I won't lie to my self. EVERYTHING ABOUT MY APPLICATION WAS PURSUED THROUGH BY JEHOVAH GOD. FIRST APPLICANT AND NO AGENT BUT WAS CLOSELY GUIDED BY A VERY SMART PERSON

Picture and Video attached are of DUBLIN landscape during the early hour of the morning

No you don’t. It’s not compulsory, we’ve seen a lot of PPR without police report.

lapazi:
Do we need police report for student Visa application, i cant find this anywhere as part of the required documentations, please pple enlighten us!

No, you can do it after applying. I did my upfront medicals after I already applied for visa, it saves time, especially if your resumption date is fast approaching.

Moyosore019:
But I thought if one didn’t do upfront medicals before applying, after application one has to wait for the request to do so

Go and do your upfront medicals already. You don have time to waste.

Moyosore019:
Good evening, please I need advice on what to do. Application was on the 11th of October, I have not done my medical check and the school is to resume on the 9th of January 2023. What should I do? This is the 7th week after biometrics.

You mean they held your passport for almost 3 months? Maybe you should first receive your passport, then if there’s no stamp on it you can apply for your gcms notes, that way you know what the main issue is. If it’s that all measures were met then you apply for reconsideration.

Simti:
Hello everyone,

Does any1 know about reconsideration request to IRCC or getting across to IRCC?

I was asked to go for medicals on the 12th of September, 2022 and on the 13th of September, 2022. I was sent a passport request letter.
I had an upfront medicals which had not expired so I submitted it through the ircc webform and submitted my passport to the vfs Lagos office.
It is been going to three months now and I suddenly saw a refusal message on the 25th of November stating that my
1. My application was rejected because it is not consistent with a temporary stay in canada
2. My course of study is not in line with my past education/ experience.
My question is that is that did they not check all these before they proceeded further with the application or could it just be a mistake from their part?

The refusal looks generic because these refusal should have come earlier in the process or what do you guys think?. I did everything accordingly.

I just got a message from VFS global yesterday that my passport is ready for collection and I seriously doubt there will be a visa appended on it because my application status shows refused.

Please any1 ever experience this and what did you do? I dont mind referrals please as I seriously need advise.
Thank you.

Congratulations on your visa. You can’t change your DLI, cause your visa has been approved. if you’ll change then you have to submit a new application and you pay for the fees too.

Emma7680:
Hello everyone, please I just got my study permit. I got admission to 2 colleges (the first one is a 3 years course) and I used the LOA from the first college for visa applications.
Now my visa has been issued but the problem is that the 2nd college I applied for just accepted me and it’s a 2 years program of practically the same course as the first college.
My question is can I change my school to the 2nd college without any problem because I applied for visa using the first college. Also if it’s possible can I transfer my school fees to the 2nd school?
Both schools are starting January 9th and I am going to Canada first week of January, I just want to know if I can change to the second school without issues and if my school fees can be transferred to my 2nd school on time and without any issues.
Thank you ��

Congratulations!

demz99:
it is PPR!!!!!! the wait is finally over. September 30 Applicant!!!

Where did you submit your passport to? Lagos or Abuja? And have you tried calling them?

Gilb231:
It’s been 41 days since I submitted my passport to IRCC. I don’t understand the reason for the delay. I’ve really lost a lot to this delay.

You can apply for reconsideration and write a LOE explaining that you submitted your tuition receipt and bank statements and make sure to attach them too

Dotun2020:
Guys pls help a brother...I was refuse for totaly for wrong reason...that I do not upload my bank statement... which I uploaded and am 100% sure I did...then that I did not make any payment for my school term semester... which I pay my tuition fee (first term..8500 cad)...pls help a brother...pls how can I go about it pls... what should I do pls

Yes it’s been stamped. You should see your counterfoil in your portal too. You Just still need to wait for mails from vfs stating that it’s ready for collection.

PPR Alert!

2nd time applicant.

1st application was denied based on financial assets. I was very disappointed as I thought my profile and financial history was good enough to get PPR.

My guru @Makano advised we order for GCMS and quickly re-fire. So we ordered for the notes, it came back and we gathered that the VO had issues with lump sum on my account statements.

So we quickly adjusted my SOP and provided explanations plus verifiable receipts for the lump sum, and reapplied again.

As God may have it, application was approved.

My Timeline;
Sep 18th - Application submitted (Biometrics was done on the 22nd of April, 2022 so it updated)
Nov 15th- Eligibility Review
Nov 16th- Medical updated to passed (I did upfront medicals on the 21st of April, 2022)
Nov 16th- PPR

I attached below documents

• Letter of Acceptance.
• Academic and Professional certificates.
• Academic Transcript.
• NYSC certificate.
• Birth Certificate
• Police clearance certificate
• Bio-data page of International Passport
• Drivers' license.
• NIN slip.
• Updated CV
• Staff ID Card.
• Letter of Introduction from my employer.
• Promotion letter.
• Pay slip

CLIENT INFORMATION
• Land Documents (Receipts, Sales Contract, Deed of Assignment, Survey plan)
• Particulars for 2 cars.
• Siblings Birth Certificate and Photos
• CAC document for registered company.

PROOF OF MEANS OF FINANCIAL SUPPORT
• SOP (6 pages).
• Statement of account (Individual and Company) above 20m.
• Salary account Statement.
• Documents showing business presence in Nigeria.

Big shout to all the guys doing great work out here and special shout out to @makano for being my guide all through the rainy days. And of course to the hopefuls, y'all will share your own good news on this very thread.

Remain blessed!

Hi guys, please any group for NBCC? I will really appreciate.

You’re not alone… mine is even over two weeks, I called them this morning and they said it’s not ready yet. It is well

Shugapee:
Please who else is experiencing this delay in return of passport from Vfs. It’s been two weeks now and I am getting worried, I went there to ask and they said they can’t help me that will be contacted.

You can reapply as long as it’s the same school. Send your new LOA to IRCC. It won’t affect your visa.

fenwag:
The school cannot defer till fall next year due to the course (I was supposed to start this September before),
The course is only taken in the fall and the school cannot defer over two semesters that was the reason I requested a refund before the course registration closed. I am planning to apply for next fall and I'm asking if it won't have any effect on my visa when it is approved.
