On Seneca's int school fees payment option, there is an option for flywire. After selecting Flywire as your preferred option ( that's if you personally want to use flywire, there are other options there. I'm saying flywire cos that's what I used.) you have the option of paying via international bank transfer. Generate a payment ID and take it to the bank. Tell them you want to pay Via form A. You fill a form, and hopefully the bank debits you after "2 - 3" business days (depends on the bank too) and credits flywire. When flywire receives the payment, they credit seneca within 2 -3 days, then you can see your receipt t uploaded on the students portal for download.

For banks that are very fast, I wouldn't know, cos I used only one bank, but what ever bank you decide to use, make sure you sit on your acct officers head so that they process the payment fast for you.

Hope this info helps you...

Well i don't really know about PG. CERT programs for Teaching related work experience.


By the way,

what subject or subjects are you teaching ?

Which Class are you taking (Nursery, Primary, Secondary)?

Apart from being a Teacher, is there a position assigned to you in the school?

I’ll prefer the GIC for some personal reasons. Please how do I get to transfer money to my GIC account whenever I want to do that?

Thank you for your response

adetopsy1:
What is the advantage of this MBS. Have been seeing people talk about it here but can’t understand.

Omiinii:
It depends on your bank, not every bank offer MBS. if you're using GTbank or access bank you can generate it yourself with your bank app. If you don't understand how to, you could go to the bank they'll send it to canada and generate the MBS ID and password which you will attach with your documents for submission.

EstherAda92:
Please do not say no, is better you say yes since you intend to work ur visa won't be withdrawn if you say yes, so why not say yes

Omiinii:
Abba nau. international students generally don’t need a separate work permit in order to work while studying in Canada, although there is an important exception. Some study programs require the student to complete a Co-op or internship work placement in order to be able to graduate. In this situation, international students require a Co-op work permit in addition to their study permit.

To get a Co-op work permit, you’ll need a valid study permit and a letter from your university or college confirming all students in your program need to complete work placements to get their degree. So if someone course doesn't require internship work placement why will he say he intends to work? I believe jay is right on this one.

Omiinii:
Patrick since you've already contacted CIBC and I'm guessing they already sent you the account details to send the funds to. I believe you should visit a major branch. I no understand how hardware token enter the discussion. You just tell them to transfer the money from your dom account. If they are still giving you excuses it's probable they don't know how to carry out the transactions, that's why it's advisable to go to a major branch. Good luck

Good evening Friends,
Please, I need suggestions:

I just got admission for a 1-Year 'Electrical - Industrial' Certificate which I applied earlier but I realized it could be seen as lack of career progression as an HND holder. I have HND in Chemical Engineering 2010; with years of experience in Automation Control and Instrumentation.

Considering Study Permit approval possibility, should I proceed with the admission OR apply for a PG Certificate in Project Management or any other relevant PG Certificate Program?

CalcreteJB:
To start with, I'm a first time applicant and more of a silent reader on the thread.

The idea of getting a PR erupted in my mind in 2019 and I decided to take IELTS where I had an overall score of 8.0 but somehow Covid 19 came by and affected all the plans and I abandoned it midway, the zeal was never really there because I had always been an advocate of "Nigeria is filled with milk and honey, we can make it better, why leave for another man's country", hence, it was easy to let go of the idea.

The next phase started in November 2020 when I suddenly got tired of the country and the way we were headed. I woke that early morning without having an idea of the country I wanted to travel to even if its temporarily, though Canada had always been in my subconscious, however at this point I was ready and determined to step out of the shores of this country for once. I went online and researched, then I came across Victor Ola's Travel Guide to Canada without IELTS and I bought it. I studied it for some days, did further research online and commenced application into Canadian colleges. I wished I had come across this thread before now.

I applied to Durham College - got rejected based on educational gap;
Algonquin College - got rejected based on educational gap
Confederation College - abandoned the application because they referred that they use agents

Centennial College - got admission a month after my application (submitted First Degree transcripts, Certificate, CV with 8years experience in Constructions, Consulting and facilities management) without IELTS though I had one and applied to study Construction Management. I was advised to defer admission till Fall 2021 if I wanted to come to Canada based on Covid 19 procedures, otherwise I will have to settle for online classes if i wanted to commence classes in May 2021, so i opted for Fall (Sept 2021).

I was first issued a deposit admission letter to be replaced with a full admission offer letter after making a payment of $2650 to secure a spot as I was advised the spots for the course gets filled very fast. I immediately made the payment and secure the offer letter a week later.

I started arranging the required documents needed to commence temporary visa application. I forgot to mention I already have first and second degrees in Civil Engineering in 2011 and 2017 respectively with 8years working experience. However, I could not include the masters certificate because of my College aspirations (got to know about this through the guide I purchased, thanks to the guide too)

DOCUMENTS SUBMITTED
1. Admission Offer letter
2. Deposit Receipt issued by school
3. SOP - a strong one, home ties was strongly established through father's company
4. Letter of Introduction by Sponsor - Father
5. Letter of Sponsorship - Father's company
6. First Degree Certificate
7. Ordinary Passport - a recent passport picture
8. Police Clearance Certificate
9. Father's company statement of account
10. Father's passport pages with visiting visas to UK and China
11. Company CAC and list of company directors
12. Passport data page
13. Wife's appointment letter showing remuneration
14. CV
15. Marriage Certificate

Online application was finally submitted on June 26th
Biometrics Completed on June 28th
Then came the dead silence for about 3months,

When it became evident that it's likely I don't get a response before school resumes in September, I wrote to the school requesting to defer my admission to January 2022 and it was acknowledged and granted with a new LOA issued after 2weeks. I didn't however upload this, I only requested incase IRCC requested for additional documents.

I was becoming impatient and I had to raise a webform on the 28th of September, then came the Medical request on the 29th of September. After raising the webform prior to receiving the medical invite, I became glued to my profile hoping for an update but there came none, I got closed the IRCC tab on my laptop and stepped angrily out of my office at exactly 12noon on the 29th and stepped out of my office only to come back 30mins later and saw a mail asking to check my profile, it seemed as the VO treating my file saw me when I got angry and left my office.

Medical was done at IOM Abuja on the 13th of October and I uploaded the document issued by IOM through webform on the 14th. IOM confirmed medicals was okay and has been transmitted to IRCC on the 15th with IRCC updating my profile to medicals passed on the same 15th of October.

I checked my profile like every second from the 15th till I suddenly got a mail on the 18th around 11am, my heart almost fell out of my mouth and I saw BVL, I almost fell off my chair with joy and I was expecting PPR since I had read in the thread that some people got their PPR immediately after BVL. The day eventually ended without the PPR in sight, then I became slightly worried again.

The PPR eventually came in on the 20th around 11am, I was in a meeting when I saw the mail and I could not concentrate anymore. I took a toilet break and went into my office, locked the door and the blinds and prayed first then i proceeded to log into my profile and with my heartbeat already racing twice than normal. There lies the PPR and I went down on my knees to thank God for the favor for I am a sinner.

@Jay316 @Scott99tish @SwayB @beedyboy

There goes the story folks, the ending and landing part will be concluded when all is finally tidied. Thanks for the patience and I pray all being expectant of their PPR will get it In Sha Allah.

Slyview:
Good morning house,

Please i really want to confirm in the house with my HND lower credit, is it possible to get PGD admission into any of the technical college in canada?.

Thank you!

Slyview

Lekiboboe:
While you await the response of others, based on my opinion i don't think you should go ahead with the mentioned programs.

Its advisable you go for a POST GRADUATE CERTIFICATE (PG. CERT) Program related to your work experience in Automation Control & Instrumentation to show Career Progression.

That being said,

Do a google search on the following PG. CERT PROGRAMS, check the program overviews, course curriculum (courses taken in each program), tuition amount for international students, Admission intakes (WINTER, SPRING, FALL) etc. and go for the one that suites you

Industrial Automation
Niagara College, Ontario

Robotics and Automation
Sault college, Saint Saulte Marie, Ontario

Building Automation System Operations
Algonquin College, Ontario

Robotics and Industrial Automation (Optional Co-op)
Conestoga College, Ontario


Good luck!!!

247humble:
Thanks Bro, I appreciate your response! I have actually seen these Programs but the cost isn't my friend either,
Please, what is your option about the below scenario?

COURSE: Post Graduate Certificate in Project Management
I intend to Register a 'Servicing Firm' with CAC before applying for Study Permit and my SOP will reflect Project Management for my Company.
PREVIOUS EDUCATION: HND in Chemical Engineering 2010.
EXPERIENCE: 5 years in Automation Control and Instrumentation.

Please, can this fly?

Scott99tish:
Hi @adepeju1911,
You have a strong point, which you must express in your SOP in detailed.
Your GCMS note will drop in your email. Just wait for it to tackle the right refusal reason.
So your LOE will do the work for that.

You need not show that company closed down, only if you’ve done so in your previous application then you should maintain your same storyline. If not, You can just express in a form that you left to start up your own from Experience gathered which should give you room for Career progression and come back home to your business with other home ties you had.

That you want to acquire more Administrative skill to be better.

I believe you should be fine.
