Still expecting answers on this if anyone knows. I’ll really appreciate

I'm yet to do biometrics and medicals. Also applied with just screenshot evidence of CAQ application. The CAQ approval letter just came and I'm waiting to upload everything after biometrics and medicals next week.

Does this mean eligibility and background checks has started already?

As long as you do not submit NSE requirement, do not expect your application to be given priority. Eligibility review status or ghost update is not a reliable indicator of what's truly going on in the background. Any update is just a sign that something might be going on, but we can't truly tell.

Upload your letter immediately!!!!!

I’d advise you send your acceptance letter ASAP cause it’s part of the compulsory documents.

Pls any suggestions guys ?

Good morning all. I’m just curious to know how people coped while waiting for PPR OR eligibility review. To think I just applied and I can barely do anything without thinking of my application. Is it really possible to get your mind off it??
To all that has received PPR y’all are STRONG!

Honestly, I don’t know some ppl handled 8 months of this wait. Barely a month since submission and I’m always on this thread or checking my email. Waiting for something to drop. I’ve tried focusing on other things but I just keep coming back here.


Quick question, for NSE request, which IELTS is better, general or Academic??

Hello Ritzzybaron, so pleased to hear from you. I dropped my phone number via email for you. Hope to hear from you soon

FolaRauf:

Done now. I sent the web form to Lagos but included Lagos and Nairobi in the email I sent as well. The response will now determine which office is handling my application.

Thanks.

Guy if you like yourself, upload the CAQ immediately and ensure it is acknowledged. They are checking your eligibility this fast because you didn’t submit all the right documents. Screenshots of application for CAQ is not CAQ approval and will never be considered as one. It is clearly stated on the CAQ and CIC website that you need the approval letter to apply for the visa.

Upload your letter immediately!!!!!

Eligibility may be fast because I submitted with NSE requirements. I've done the needful now.

Thanks for your advice make my village people no win ooo...lol

30k CAD (inclusive of tuition fee) is enough for a self sponsored applicant going for a 1 year program. If you're going for 2 years program, funds available must cover the entire 2 years duration. I'm estimating a little above 55k cad for you, or you provide a convincing explanation in regards to where the fund for your second year will come from. This is just an opinion.

Does providing a convincing explanation (without showing proof) on how I expect to raise the tuition for the second year suffice? I am self-sponsored, I present my bank statement showing 30k CAD to cover my first year tuition and living expense and then say my husband will support my second year tuition, do I need to attach his bank statement?

JustMellow:


Hello Prisscindy,

Good to have you here on the student thread. I don't know if I clearly understand PA's situation here, but the implication of enrolling as a part-time student may impact PA's PGWP application in the long run.

If PA enrolls as a part-time student, the study or PA's academic status will no longer be considered as full-time.

Whether or not PA has yet to get the visa, all academics done online from outside Canada until December 31, 2021, upon approval or pending approval will be entered in the academic transcript.

The courses enrolled and taken as part-time will reflect so. PA should kindly reconfirm from the DLI so they can reaffirm that the already registered courses were noted as full-time or what the deal is.

Cheers!

She has finished one trimester, registered as part time, it was actually the university that registered her as part time. She registered the new trimester as part time too but I would tell her to increase the number of courses so it'd be full time.

Thank you for pointing that out, I didn't know it has got something to do with PGWP though. She's an undergraduate student, do you think it could be made up since she is supposed to finish in 4 years?

Moreover, her dad was of the opinion she changes her course to nursing when she gets to Canada.

I heard either one can serve. Some people wrote General and got approval as well. I’ve written both though I submitted my application with “Academics”. I’ll definitely say general is easier.

NB:
My General got expired and I wrote Academics because of study route; but that was before I heard General can serve too.
U can still seek the opinions of “Gurus” in the house.

Hello.

Please were you able to get mybankstatement for the account with fixed deposit or did you use a regular stamped bank statement?

Chief, thanks a lot. But I got an auto-reply saying they won't respond to my mails due to covid 19 blablabla.....are you sure they will attend to my mail?

Yes, pls attach his statement and in your explanation of how you'll pay, make sure you show evidence of the points you are making. Although you should note frm experience the more the documents submitted for review, the longer the eligibility review takes. Goodluck to us all

Sterling289128:


I remember you once advised i could apply for a post graduate diploma and change to normal diploma after my student permit has been approved. I hear now you have to apply again for a new student permit afresh. Should i just apply for the normal diploma directly or still apply for the post graduate diploma first. Also, can one change one's course before traveling to Canada or after? Thank you.

I will advise you go for the PGD program and upon arrival in Canada you can initiate the transfer of DLI.



It will end in praise

I just found out that I can still download the IMM form for Family Information and that of Application for Study Permit. But the other supporting documents can no longer be downloaded. Does this suggest any problem?

TradeSunMoore:
Guys! My daughter PPR just dropped!. Oct 6 , 2020 Applicant, (17 years undergraduate ) . NSE request, but ignored. upfront medical updated to pass since 29 December, 2020. Review of Eligibility started last Monday 17 May 2021.

The other supporting documents spaces listed on your MYCIC account are columns where you can upload your immigration documents. You can't download them.
