Dear Nairaland,
# This is my testimony. This is intended for you guys to know that with God, all things are possible. All you have to do is ask HIM.
After I received an admission offer for winter 2015, I proceeded to the study permit application after gathering all my documents.
CIC FIRST APPLICATION (ONLINE)
Application submitted: October 12, 2014
Application closed and rejected: November 10, 2014
Rejection reasons: Purpose of visit, length of proposed stay, personal assets and finance, current employment situation.
Documents submitted: All CIC forms and requirements including; confirmation letter from the institution, IMM1294E, IMM5645E, passport, evidence of work requirement in study (since the program had an internship component) and digital photo.
Proof of finance which comprised of my uncle’s (sponsor) bank statements, letter of employment stating his salary, statutory declaration (affidavit), passport and latest tax receipt.
CIC SECOND APPLICATION (ONLINE)
Application submitted: November 13, 2014
# Guys know that the start date for the program was on January 5, 2015 and if I do not withdraw from the program before that date, my paid tuition would be a loss. So is either I withdraw from the program at that moment or risk it all for CIC. What would you have done if you were being sponsored by someone? So, I withdrew from the program and applied again to the same institution since they (institution) could not defer an admission offer and waited for what will happen next.

# You should now understand at this point that when I had an admission offer, there was no visa and now I have a visa and no admission offer.
# I can say that I just received another offer of admission recently and I decided to share this personal information with you because I also learnt from others here.
# Please bear in mind that it has always been prayer (sometimes fasting in addition) throughout because nothing is too hard for the Lord. I would say that do not give up on God for he has not given up on you. Keep believing. He did it for me and can also do it for you as well.
