Hello � I’m new here and I just got an offer to study Global Business Management in Humber College January 2022. I have paid my first semester fees and applied for the student permit. Done my biometric and my medicals upfront. If there is anyone going into to Humber in January 2022 and you are waiting for your permit like me. Can we kindly connect together to help keep hopes high.

shams040:
Please how many months do I have to leave Nigeria to enter Canada after getting the Sticker on my passport?

Assalamu alaykum akhi. You need to make the right choice. Either you want USA or Canada. I know of a PhD man that was in your situation. He left Naija for USA for his PhD studies but his Canada visa was approved when he was in the USA. He had to abandon Canada and focused on USA. U just need to make the right choice

GodsGabby:
Yes, canada is better.

in what way?

Pls anyone has an idea how many times one can defer their admission with Humber college?..thank you

SweetJJ:
Thank you, but this is Recommend Interview. Is it the same with Review Required

Review Required -means the case analyst has flagged an item for review based on the documents submitted on file, which would need a more thorough investigation. This is concluded on time for some applicants, while others may take longer depending on the item or documents flagged. That is why sometimes applicants are asked to send an updated bank statement (not necessarily an NSE request) or provide another copy of a particular document submitted or might be an employer they want to contact directly.

Recommend Interview - means a Case Analyst has reviewed the documents on file, specifically every item based on criteria for eligibility. They put their comments and pass them on to a Senior Officer who is always very experienced for a secondary review and final verdict (Approval or Refusal). The comments of this senior or experienced officer are always noted close to the last page of the GCMS note.

You have a an obvious study gap (10years) as a Graduate of Engineering. A Visa Officer would easily assume you have being away from anything Academics for too long, and also a way from your Engineering background.

In this case,a Graduate Certificate program from a college related to your BANKING JOB is your best shot.

Its not about the money. While you are weighing your options for what suites you, also put into serious consideration what a Visa Officer would conclude at about your study plan in Canada (Very important!!!!)

Await more contributions for others.

Thank you for quick response. Though I have been away for too long but I have masters in Information technology. I intend to apply for PG certificate cyber security.

Please more advice biko

Greetings from Nigeria,

Thank you for reaching out to me.
Attached below is MyBankStatement certificate. However, I am unable to register for an IELTS test as examination dates have been fully booked way beyond the deadline.
I hereby request that my application be processed accordingly through the regular channels.

Kind regards,

So I'm a recent graduate of business education (bsc.ed) with a 4.33CGPA, no professional work experience yet as I'm currently serving (NYSC), I'm planning to apply for the fall 2022 on or before September this year. But, I'm a bit confused on the choice of masters program. Studying education in my bachelor's wasn't intentional and now I'm looking at masters of management, is there any correlation between the two? What degree path wouldn't be questioned by the visa officers as i'm a recent graduate with no experience? I would really appreciate your opinions on this

Which city's mp is this please?

OctGsam:
My people, so I contacted a MP and below was the response IRCC gave her. What can you make out of it please?

MY LANDING GIST!!!!

KLM Flight at MMIA, Ikeja. Lagos to Amsterdam (almost 6hrs layover at Amsterdam Airport), Amsterdam to Toronto.

Got to the Airport 4pm, August 11th

Brought three bags (22kg Clothes, 20kg Food), Laptop bag with my laptop, clear bag having my docs. & some other Contents (chips) inside of it.

Interestingly, the first search port , they checked my first bag which was having my clothes in it, as I was trying to bring my second bag (which contained Food stuffs) , they said I shouldn't bother, was quite surprised. Because i know i might not be able to go out during quarantine, I packed a substantial amount of food stuffs and ready to eat foods such as Peanuts, Chips etc. The second bag i used to pack my foodstuffs was a Traveling bag, am assuming they thought it was Clothes that was also inside that bag. In a nutshell I wasn't directed to Nigerian Quarantine Agriculture service, I went straight to KLM post to check-in.


Documents Asked;
- International Passport
- LOA
- Tuition Payment. Receipt from the School
- Negative COVID-19 Test
- Enrollment Letter was asked but i had only "Travel Authorization Letter (Travel Support Letter)", Enrolment letter wasn't available, my DLI would not give me cos my Program is an in-person and they told me i need to be in Canada in physical, get the STUDY PERMIT before I can be allowed to register. The KLM staff was a bit skeptical about me not having ENROLLMENT LETTER, but only TRAVEL SUPPORT LETTER, I had to show her the e-mail from the school to prove that what I was saying was legit, she called her OGA, the oga sha scanned thru the TRAVEL SUPPORT LETTER and the mail, he was pointing out a portion of that letter to her & told her "I was good to go".

She directed me to another port to check in my luggage, and i met another lady, she asked for my passport, gave me YELLOW card that I should fill it and also write the name of my destination, DLI, Naija Phone number on it, then she gave me my boarding pass (Lagos to Amsterdam, Amsterdam to Toronto)

From there, I sat down somewhere near one Foreign Affairs mini office. I was jejely waiting there, Mumsy, Dad & my Aburo (sisto) were with me. Naxo one man with I.D card just come meet my mumsy say, is she your son, mumsy answer " yes". He come talk say make me i follow am (he looks like a Custom/immigration/foreign affairs staff, wasn't able to see details about his ID, but he be like say he get mouth for that airport, he was on a casual outfit, not in Uniform). He was with some travellers going to Canada as well. Naxo me just follow am, he told mumsy, say make dem give him her fone make he snap us Sharp sharp, telling her that " after this place they are not allowed to follow me to the Immigration section".

Mumsy come dey kinda cry, hug me, me come dey feel emotional but smiling, Daddy and my Aburo (sisto) no cry but we hugged, snapped pictures and said their BYES to me.

So i went through the Naija Immigration section, and it was seamless. This man was in our front all through, I no know wetin him dey follow those Customs guys, immigration guys talk. I guess that man na one ANGEL. I was with my one year Living Expenses in Cash $8K USD (equivalent to $10K CAD), I wasn't able to get PTA for naija bank cos my ticket na ONE WAY.

Naija Immigration guys only asked of my:
- International Passport
- Boarding Pass
- Yellow Card.

He made a stamp on my PASSPORT, collected my YELLOW CARD, gave me back my boarding pass and said I can go.

We went to another port of immigration, commot belt, remove shoes, remove phone, remove laptop put on big tray like that,entered the other side and left.

In a nutshell, I didn't grease anybody hands, nobody asked me for money (anything for the boys), nobody asked "how much is with you" customs seff no ask me any question, i just walk pass them as that man dey go for our front . I was just being attended to like a DIPLOMAT and all was a cruise.

Along the line I saw one cute yarinya (kai walahi odo wun yefe ), his Dad/guardian (an Airport/Aviation staff I guess) was with her putting her thru, na so we gather dey together dey gist till our Amsterdam Flight was called for boarding, but our seat come far, nobody to gist with again

FLIGHT FROM LAGOS TO AMSTERDAM (SCHIPOL AIRPORT)
Flight departed Naija : 11pm , August 11th

Food Was quite OK, Oyinbo Food, chai.... We were served twice. Me just zip my Orange Juice after eating.

Movies Yapa ,
I watched GOLD STATUE (Gabriel Afolayan, Sola Sobowale, RMD, Kalu Ikeagu) but didn't complete the movie, BOB Abishola TV series and WonderWoman 1984

Got to Amsterdam 5am the next day " August 12, we waited till 10.45am (5-6hrs stop over) before announcement was made about boarding the Flight going to Toronto from Amsterdam, we were on queue, the KLM staff there asked for my Docs., told him I was a student.

Showed him my
- COVID-19 Negative PCR test
- Boarding Pass
- Passport
- Travel Authorization Letter

He said I should make sure I show all documents to the CBSA guys at Toronto P.O.E. & he wished me a safe trip

I can count the number of Dark skin passengers on that aircraft, 80% of them were Whites, Middle East & Asians.

FLIGHT FROM AMSTERDAM TO TORONTO

On the KLM flight from Amsterdam to Toronto, we were served oyinbo food, me i just jejely asked for Natural Orange Fruit juice all through to press the food, the food was delicious, and was jejely sipping it (to keep boosting my immune system). I was able to complete the MOVIE (GOLD STATUE) on this flight, also saw the movie "Godzilla vs KingKong".

We arrived Toronto Pearson Airport 12.45pm (journey was 6-hours). We Trekked wella before getting to the CBSA officers check point. There was a machine i visited first with my international Passport (for Scanning) & also answered some questions, and also the machine snapped my picture, when i was through, a white slip was printed out automatically with my picture on it and some other info.

So I was on the queue, met an immigration officer (a Cute woman with a latina-like face attended to me);
she asked me
- why are you in Canada, told her to "TO STUDY"
- International Passport
- Negative COVID-19 Test result
- ArriveCAN receipt.

So on that slip that had my picture in it, she made a remark with a Marker on it, gave me back, and also gave me a Paper having some information about COVID-19.

So I proceeded to the next immigration officer.

He asked for my
- Passport (Gave to him)
- Why I was in Canada?
- Is this my first time in Canny?
- What DLI (School) are you attending?
- ArriveCAN receipt

Within 5-minutes, he printed my STUDY PERMIT, on that letter there was an information which shows I can work as a student & he also gave me a Work permit (Co-op Work permit). In a nutshell i got two WORK PERMITS.

I was directed to an exit, met another immigration officer, he asked how much was with me, I told him $8K USD ($10K CAD equivalent), was trying to bring it out, he just said "you can go"

Went to claim my LUGGAGE, saw my first bag, was intact, saw my second bag containing the food stuffs, the Bag has been opened, zip messed up, the KLM staff come dey apologize say na the people wey arrange my load no do am well, and talk say the few turbulence that happened in the air affected some luggage including mine. i checked if all was intact and discovered nothing was taking cos i get list of everything in a paper.

I am not vaccinated, so i went for my rapid on arrival PCR TEST, they asked if I have reg. on the switch health website, I said YES. So I went to switch health (representing TORONTO) to do the COVID-19 TEST. Afterwards, I.was directed to go get my COVID-19 TEST KIT

Note:
If you are landing at TORONTO PEARSON AIRPORT (YYZ) make sure you reg. at the switch health website so you won't waste your time at the airport.

I connected to their Wifi and got across to my Airbnb host, cos she say make I call her if I don finish with Border officials.

My Airbnb host (a Philippine Woman) come use her OCHARA TEAR RUBBER TOYOTA JEEP come pick me for Airport go the Airbnb Location. She was very nice and welcoming, we gist small sha, and i related to her wella as if we don know each other before, she was enjoying our convo all through, me jz dey use some Geography totori her. We got to the Airbnb Location & she showed me around, her place make sense, bed dey bounce wella, WiFi dey (the speed no be here at all, I come use style remember my GLO network for Naija, wey I go Switch-On the WiFi, climb tree up go out am to receive fast network reception).

So far so good, Quarantine as being dope, na one Israeli guy dey the other apartment , he is fully vaccinated but was staying in a room in that same Airbnb. The guy sha help me change small money, rate was dope sha, come help me buy Groceries. He talk say if I need anything make I holla at him.

All I can say is, GOD TOOK PERFECT CONTROL, journey was long but amazing

I MUST say ORILEDE CANADA is damn amazing" no fire brigade approach from anyone, no body blood dey hot for here. Everyone looks cool , respectful and ready to help, everything na SEMPE SEMPE for here.

I pray for everyone awaiting a decision from IRCC, your Canadian Dreams would come to reality soon & very soon!!!

Peace!!!

Yes , I have used it.

Obiag:
Hope you used your Canadian visitor's visa.

I observed that no May normal route applicant has received PPR. The very few that received approvals had complete NSE requirements or short of one.

I am a May 1st applicant (normal route), and eligibility has not started. Classes will start 25th August. Trusting God to receive PPR soonest.

A USA visitors visa Doe's not qualify you to apply and obtain visa to another country from the USA.

Its beginning to look like applying through the normal route is now an offence.

It will end in praise.

Hello guys,

Does anyone have a draft for writing SOP

A detailed guideline is on page 1 of this thread.
Please go through it and if you still have questions after that,our gurus are always here to help.
Peace.

Please who here is in Mount Saint Vincent University or going there.

atiteb4:
in what way?

Canada is better because my brother that left since 2008 for PHD with full scholarship just became a citizen after close to 14years. Whilst Canada , if the spouse gets a job , pR can be possible without waiting till the end of the studies. Citizenship within 5yrs. He can cross over to US easily for jobs too.

Sweet story,
Congratulations broz.
You know how important you're to this thread,abeg try dey show up once in a while o. May maple land favour you.

Good morning wonderful people. Please gurus in the house,which one is better? Sending Emails or webform? Coz I've never had response from IRCC using both. So I want to know which one IRCC will mostly likely respond to.

Who has taken first dose of the vaccine recently?

fogechi:
Thank you for quick response. Though I have been away for too long but I have masters in Information technology. I intend to apply for PG certificate cyber security.

Please more advice biko

You are welcome Honorable.

Try to give your response more clarity cos you just mentioned something new which you didn't mention in your last post. You said "I have been away for too long but I have masters in Information technology (I.T)".


You had your Masters in I.T in what year (To address Study Gap)?
What's the name of your Job & Job description in the bank?
Is it in anyway related to Cybersecurity?
Why PG. Cert in Cybercurity?


The essence of all of these is to prevent a Visa Officer from having unnecessary assumptions when they are processing your submitted study visa application. Academic Progression and Career Progression is very important

shams040:
My PPR has been approved but I am already in d US and don't want Canada again. Please how can I cancel the visa application?

Walahi this your case dey always sweet me

If you've thoughtfully balanced all your options and concluded that withdrawal is the best, then raising a webform should do.

My brother insists I go for masters but the cost is high.

Yes,you can.
Going by your profile (10yrs in banking) I think it's best you go for courses related to you present work experience.
Just my thought, but we've got knowledgeable people here who I believe will come up with the right way to go.

Thank you for this great platform and wonderful replies. I am about to begin my Canadian study visa process and will need guidance from the house. I have HND in Banking and Finance, and will like to study in Canada. I am currently working for the past one year as a Customer service representative.

Noted with thanks!
I so much value your tireless contributions in my app journey.
Pls, how do I explain and prove this type of lump sum?
As u don't know, we used to pay our distributors cash, I mean physical cash, whenever goods are delivered to us. And you know, such payment doesn't reflect in one's account.
But, now, we've decided to be making payments via bank services so as to have the reflection in mum's account statement. The idea is to build her account.
How do I prove such lump sum?

Are you making payments or depositing?. You only made mention of paying others here
