Hi Adeniyi02,
1) I'll advise you apply to Management/Business related courses
2) apply for Management programs with Co-op/Practicum/experiential/internship
3) check universitystudy.ca or 1grad.ca ( they have the programs listed out by province, co-op opportunities e.t.c)
4) prepare for graduate interview
5) write a strong statement of purpose and professional graduate cv

For me, PG Cert in a College is a non-starter based on your years of experience.

Frankrobbn1:


Happy New Year my fellow Nairalanders! I'm glad to be in your midst this year again.

To provide answer to your question, it doesn't appear reasonable for your brother who is resident in Canada to sponsor you and your wife. He already has his dependents in Canada which the visa officer is well-informed about and a simple background check on his immigration status would delcare same. My professional advice for you is that you (the husband) should fund your account and sponsor the trip to Canada.

I wish you the very best.

It will end in praise

I sent an email request please reply, ild love to commence my process but with good direction.
I searched through this platform for anyone with a similar experience to mine, but none so I am posting incase some one down the line falls in my category;
a step by step walk through or an advisable path for me to follow with regards to my study permit would be appreciated

Ild note the different concerns I have, kindly let me know what you think;

1. I am currently in the UK, on a temporary residents visa, I do not know if non foreign nationals residing in UK get Canadian study visa from the UK. There is an office to submit applications here in London, but there is no location for medicals, as I read on CIC, UK is a sovereign country If I can explain it this way, The closest location for medicals is in Ireland, Please do you have experience with foreign nationals applying from UK, and how medicals had to be carried out

2. I have a toddler of about 3 years old, he is an American passport holder, still not sure of applying with him or apply alone, then apply for him when the permit is approved, this is with regards to ties to home and leaving Canada after study
regardless of not applying with my toddler do I have to show receipts of medical expenses in the U.S?

3. My first degree is in the field of Architecture/Construction, I started a postgrad degree in Construction in EU but do not have my certificate yet.
So I am applying for a 2 years College Graduate certificate in Business and Data Analytics with just my Bsc Certificate and my work experience, with construction and marketing/sales/customer service experience. The construction experience is from employment from companies in my home country (Nigeria), the marketing/sales/customer service experience is from running my own outfit ( also in Nigeria), how can I explain this in the statement of Purpose. relating my experience in Sales/Marketing/Customer service with Data Analytics considering my work experience.

4. Do I have to show the VO the degree I do not have a certificate for yet since I am not using it for admission. the visa is on my passport of visiting the location and residency on staying there for a period, If I omit the degree, do I have to explain my stay as well?

5 My partner is going to be my sponsor, we also intend putting some funds in a GIC account and making provision for accommodation for a year in Canada.

6. My partner applied to study in Canada a while back, but he was refused on ties to home country and proof of funds, so he applied for study in UK, he would not be applying with myself, I just thought to state to give a wider picture.

7, I have a good travel history, but this doesn't concern the VO I just have to package my application properly to get the permit.

feedback urgently needed.

Thank you

I want to add my little contribution based on two issues.
* From your statement above you said you are a student in the UK . Which means your stay over there is temporary and because of this reason you dont have a strong tie to the UK ( no job and your stay is temporary). In other words I dont think it would help improving your chance of getting the study permit approved based on the location of study permit application submission.

*Not everyone is required to do or submit a medical examination after submitting a study permit application. If you live in the EU or UK with a strong health system and you recently didnt visit a third world country like Nigeria for example and stay for up to 6 months before applying for your study permit you might be exempted from submitting a medical examination certificate. In otherwords submitting a medical will depend on your country of residence ( if you are currently applying from there ) and the countries you recently visited and if you stayed there for up to 6 months.

Lastly the points I raised above are mainly based on my own understanding and opinion . I am not an immigration consultant.

Anon123:


Most applications from Nigeria are handled in Nairobi.

Even if it not nairobi, once the mail is sent, they will forward your inquiry to the office handling your app

Alright,thanks

Ketima:
Hello all,

I want to appreciate us all for the good job we are doing here. But I must be sincere with us, It breaks my heart that recently, seems this thread have now turned to ONLY ASKING AND TAKING WITHOUT GIVING BACK

Imagine if the gurus that started this informative thread had left without giving back, by now many of us would be in the dark as regards to Canada study permits processes or at the mercy of wicked agents who would have sapped us dry of our hard earned money and still dash us ban.

Now if we don't give back, how would the newbies learn and not fall victims of these agents? It has gotten to the point that newbies and old members now had to beg or ask people to drop timeline after shout of PPR.

The essence of this timeline sharing is to help one another, whom by looking at documents submitted, will make him or her know where he or she faulted. We don't need to be asked to drop timeline before doing it. Let's do it to help one another. Is not all the time that the gurus will be here to direct and answer questions.

Reading through chats, I saw influx of shouts of PPR some days ago and it ended there. Guess God has now answered your prayers and you don't need this thread again Abi?

Let's all help one another through sharing of our timeline and document's submitted please. It goes a long way in helping.


Also, please those that have travelled, please endeavour to share your landing gist nah. It will help people getting ready to travel to know what and what you have handy and what to expect. Very many questions of people who are about to travel have asked as regards documents needed at the airports by airlines, but no clue cos those that have travelled, haven't come back to give us landing gist.

Sometime last month during the flight ban, many left through indirect route and many have gone after the lifting of flight ban. So what's happening? Please you all should come back and give is landing gist. It go help us well well. Jay316, I'm waiting for your own in particular lol.


@Makano, guess you need to inform justmellow about the thread. The pages is now too long to read through. Help us tell the moderators to do what they know how to do best.


I wish us all the best. We all shall smile at the end of this huzzle.

You have said my mind. Bit by bit, people no longer reckon with giving back to this forum that has done so much for them. Typical human mentality of getting what they want and moving on. It is well

Congratulations!!!
Glory be to God.

It's not right to guess what went wrong with applications without gcms note. Order your gcms note.

But since ircc had started using refusal templates. I can give you hint if it pertains to you. Let me share with you some refusal reasons based on personal assets and financial status.



1. I have reviewed the application. Taking the applicant's plan of studies into account, documents submitted show some funds seem available; but with lump sum deposits. Concerns that these funds would be sufficient and available for the whole course. I am not satisfied that the proposed studies would be a reasonable expense. Weighing the factors in this application. I am not satisfied that the applicant will adhere to the terms and conditions imposed as a temporary resident. For the reasons above, I have refused this application.



2. "I have reviewed the application

Taking the applicant's plan of study into account, documents submitted show some funds seem available, but there are concerns that company funds would be sufficient and available for the whole course. I am not satisfied that proposed studies would be a reasonable expense .

Prove of funds dad's personal savings account with $100,000 balance . Tuition for whole course is less than $30,000 . Case challenged in court and ircc request out of court settlement ."


3. This one is long, can't type it. It's about applicants family establishments. Landed properties not submitted, business invoices not submitted.


4. Provenance of funds, how the funds were accumulated.

What do you mean by ghost update...what did the update say?

ehiremen2002:
Yes , I sent alot of that in the last two weeks.

I also noticed ghost update around late december and, my bank told me they call

Hello Zubby

This is a common everyday generic refusal reason which can be properly tackled with the study of your GCMS notes, so do the needful and order for your GCMS notes, when its ready, you can come back here with the notes, then we help you interprete the notes and give you ways to tackle the concerns of the Visa officer..

Peace

Hi Ketima,

This thing is so worrisome.
I’ve shouted it numerous times but It’s not changing.

I wonder what they would have met if pioneers were like them.

It’s well.
This forum is a free source to support.
Nobody can take your Visa back once granted. The info sharing is somehow.
Even Landing gist scarce when December was booming on ban issue and how many people rerouting and asking for WhatsApp group.
What now happen after that ?

God help us…

Regards.
