NO PPR today??

I wonder o!

keleto:
Good day beatiful people,
Please i would need a clarification on this.
I applied for Canadian temporary work permit last year. I received the LMIA in january
then i applied for work permit in febrary, 2020 and the the covid lock down came up .
Till now my permit is still in processing. I feel i cant wait any longer so i have decided to apply for study route. But
some one just told me that canadian embassy do not process two temporary visa at the same time.that
they normally work with the old application unless i have to cancel the work permit in processing already.
MY concern is that i dont the outcome of the previous work permit and i cant just sit and keep waiting not knowing when
covid will be opver.

pls kindly advise me on what to do.

Is it employer specific work permit
Are you not communicating with your employer?
If yes, work permit if all things are done right always get approved, pls be patient, study permit route is also suffering the same visa application delay some ppl have been waiting since Octobe it is because of travel restrictions and covid

When applying for Canada visa , patience should be one of your strength

Ketima:


I will. Don't know but have asked her. Will revert back to you when I get the process.

Okay,thanks alot.

Hello All,

Need your help on the correct path for my wife.

She graduated with a 3rd class in chemistry but have been working as an insurance sales Agent for about 6yrs.
We plan to apply for a Post graduate diploma in either Manitoba or Nova Scotia.
Please can anyone help with courses which are most relevant for her and are there other states where her application may be more favorable and the fees are more affordable.

Thanks in advance

Hello Guru's please assist

Great, I've sent you a DM

Thanks a lot. Please how do l go about ordering gcms note? Thanks a lot.

shupy:

Are you resuming in May or September? If it's May, you should be sending webforms, and if it is September, I would order gcms note if I were you.

Ketima:


You're really doing good sir. Please someone wants to PGD, she read history and hd 2.2. please kindly help with courses she can go for. She doesn't wants schools in Ontario nd BC, but other province cos of Tuition rate and living expenses.

Thanks Shugaban

With a 2.2 in History, the PGD/PG.CERT program that came to my mind is JOURNALISM.

Your sister needs to be Creative & do some packaging to possibly get an admission, cos she would need to connect her First degree (History) with another degree (Journalism). A Cover Letter might be very essential as a supporting document for her admission application cos the school would most likely make a decision based on her HISTORY DEGREE TRANSCRIPT, that been said a COVER LETTER might just be a game changer for her. The essence of this Cover letter is to show the admission committee that she's gonna be a good fit for the program despite being an History Graduate.

COVER LETTER SAMPLE FOR POST GRADUATE ADMISSION IN A CANADIAN COLLEGE attachment (in blue colour)

https://www.nairaland.com/5818588/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/414#95068409

Reason why am suggesting she should go for a PG. Cert in Journalism is because this could make him have a Career Prospects/Future Goals in INTERNATIONAL & HISTORICAL JOURNALISM

Why did I say so,

with a Bachelor's degree in History , pursing a PG. Cert in Journalism means,

- She can be concerned with human rights and issues relating to war and peace, and he might be looking for the opportunity to develop the journalistic skills necessary to communicate this to a wider public.

- She can have the opportunity to undertake the academic analysis of a range of critical approaches to the study of war and the media, journalism and conflict resolution and journalism and international human rights.

- Journalism offers several specializations, including business, art, politics, and news. A background in history would give her perspectives on a variety of topics, which can help her draw comparisons to current trends and issues. A history degree also develops the research and writing skills she need to effectively write for journals, newspapers, magazines, and blogs.

These are just tips & possible Reasons for her to study a PG. Cert in Journalism, despite having an History Degree. She can do more research on Google to see how History relates with Journalism cos she's gonna be talking seriously about the above on her SOP (to convince a VISA OFFICER) when she wanna apply for her study visa

Sequel to that,
your Sister should do a thorough research (google) on the following PG. Cert in Journalism programs in Canadian Colleges & check their Admission, Tuition amount for international students, course outlines etc.

- PG. Cert in Journalism & Communication
Holland College, Prince Edward Island

- PG Cert, Broadcast journalism – Television News

PG. Cert in journalism – Arts and Entertainment
Centennial College, Toronto, ON

Sports journalism (PG. Cert)

PG. Cert in Contemporary journalism

About the exclusion of BC & Ontario as her province to study, she should check the tuition of each schools to determine that so she can know the one's within her budget

That bin said, Financial Readiness is very essential if she wanna study in Canada

Await more inputs to your enquiry

Steph1738aye:


Hi Tomsy.. really? How about the GMAT? Did you write that?
Although my program of interest is an MBA, what documents did you submit during your application? Also is the entrance funding only available to some graduate programs? I remember reading up somewhere that they don’t provide entrance funding but they have funding opportunities for students after they have been admitted and have commenced their program.

No, I didn't write any test at all. MUN offers entrance funding packages for a wide range of programs. I don't know much about the MBA program, but you can mail your graduate coordinator. They respond really well.

The funding packages are very competitive. That's why writing standardized tests is of an advantage.

Kkddyit:


I'm totally in support of this. I have been practically unable to make major decisions since I submitted my application since Jan. 4months are gone already. We shouldn't be at their mercy I beg! Protest shouldn't necessarily have to be physical to start with, we can start on Twitter.

Thanks

Yes, yes. Nah Twitter we dey target.


Kilode. 4 months. This people no dey fear.



The way out now is how to do it.


We create a post and we retweet or we do copy and paste. And mention them all on the pages....


Trust me, this people will get serious if we give them heat in two weeks...

I've compressed my financial documents but it's still more than 4mb

Hello everyone. I have come to give thanks to God ooo!!!!! He deserves all the praise.

Just got the family ppr and visa (SOWP and 2 Study permit for the kids)

Special Thanks to all those that still keep this thread alive, A big thanks to @Frankrobbn1, @Justmellow, @justwise and @Akannitommy for the advice for my wife’s study visa application and my family’s visa application.

My wife got her study permit approved in November 2020 but she is still studying online here, waiting for the family to get our visa.

Na God ooooo, I want to use this platform take encourage people ooo. Age no be criteria to get study permit or SOWP because I and my wife don old ooo. We are over 40 and this na her third masters ooo.(She had done two Masters before). God can do it for anybody. Thanks.

Here’s my wife’s timeline :

Application: July 22
Biometrics request – July 23
Biometrics done – July 29
Medical Request: July 23
Medicals done – July 31
Medical Passed: August 1
BVL / Passport request: October 21
Passport submission: October 25 (Sent by Post)
Passport posted back: 1st November

Family timeline 1

First Application(SOWP and 2 Study permit for 5 and 10 years old):

Application: November 15
Biometrics request for spouse – November 18
Biometrics done for spouse– November 25
Refusal for family– January 11

Refusal reasons:

1. based on travel history
2. based on my immigration status here
3. based on my family ties in Canada and in my country of residence.

I tried to get the GCMS notes from one of the online agents so as to get a better understanding on why we were refused but as fate would have it the agent sent me a mail that my order was delayed that IRCC sought an extension of 90 days beyond the statutory time limit of 30 days to process the request. This means it will take a total of 120 days.

I have a feeling that my refusal was based on my visa here; because it was to expire in one month on the day I saw the refusal email. So I waited for my office to renew my visa and with faith in God, I reapplied.

Second Application (SOWP and 2 Study permit for 5 and 10 years old):

Timeline for Family 2

Application: March 18
Medical Request for family: April 7
Medicals done for family – April 12
Medical Passed for children: April 12
Medical Passed for spouse: April 26
BVL / Passport request for family: April 29
Passport submission: April 30 (Sent by Post)
Passport posted back: May 11 (Sent by Post)

Special Thanks again to @Frankrobbn1, @Justmellow, @justwise and @Akannitommy and other GURU’s for the advice they give on this platform God go bless una. Thanks.
It ended in Praise.

Hi guys,

Anyone going to the university of Alberta this fall?
Please let's connect

Hello, guys. Thanks for the job y'all are doing - I wish all of us success! I applied to George brown university and just got my admission letter for an Advance Diploma course there. Now, I'm all set to apply for student visa. However, I have a couple of questions before I get started.

1. I don't have an IELTS result now. Can I go on and apply on IRCC while I register for IELTS and write the exam?

2. I have enough funds for both my first year program (C$19,000) and the additional 10k. However, I don't have enough to foot subsequent sessions. Would that be a problem?

3. Should I go ahead and pay my first semester school or is there anything else I need to know?

Thanks! Sorry if I'm asking questions that have already been answered.

1) You can do as you stated
2) you have covered the required amount. The 10k additional is for your living expenses
3) you can pay but ensure you are familiar with the refund policy of the school o(very very important)

Can he act as a sole sponsor then since my mum doesn't have a personal account?

You mean you are currently answering the questionnaire that comes up when you open a visa account, you have uploaded all docs and currently want to pay the visa fee?

The best bet for your wife is an Advanced diploma. She should look out for marketing courses like global business management, business and sales management, strategic marketing communication etc. These courses are offered in Conestoga college shaa.. If its Novia Scotia, look at Novia scotia community college.

Hi nairalanders

I had my biometrics on April 21. It got uploaded on the system the same day when I checked my IRCC account, but up until now, the biometrics section on my application still says IRCC has not yet received my biometrics. Anyone had similar experience ? Should I be worried cos my colleague just did his 2 days ago and it is already showing biometrics completed. Do I need to send a mail. Honestly, I am worried

Yes till its corrected

Good afternoon honorables

Quick enquiry!!!

@Frankrobbn1, @JustMellow @Anon123 @Honorable members

I have someone who intends travelling to Canada by around early July. Her school is in Ontario, she would be doing her 3 days Hotel Quarantine & the Remaining 14 days in ONTARIO, then after the 14 days, she would travel to SASKATCHEWAN to stay with her aunt (for like 1.5 month) before she resumes to her school in ONTARIO by early September .

I want to know the possibility of this owing to COVID-19 Pandemic.

Thanks

Its possible as long as she obeys the rules (quarantine protocol)

Hello guys, I'm looking to make part payment for my tuition fee to TRU. I currently don't have a Domiciliary account..

Pls, what is the most reliable and quickest way of making the transfer without a Domiciliary account?

What bank is best to between UBA and Access?

and How long does it take for the Uni to receive the funds?

Anon. Be calming down. With 3rd class, she will surely get PGC admission from Fanshawe and Conestoga. She will.

1. Yes, you can
2. If you're self sponsored, your application might be denied on ground that the fund won't be enough for the entire duration of stay. You should package your application in a way that the VO would be convinced that there will be support system for you back in Nigeria. However, If you're a being sponsored increase the available fund for living expenses to 11k to be on a safer side.
3. Yes, you can.

Eligibility don start for your side?

Thank you very much for the swift reply. I checked their website and they stated that they're in compliance with the Ministry of Colleges and Universities (MCU) directives regarding refunds. Upon looking at the policy, this is what I found. What do you think about it? Thanks!
