Hi gurus, please I need your guide on my Canadian student visa application. I had a denial last year 2021. I want to give it a try again. @faithyyyy and others please advise ��. The reason for refusal was “family tie not sufficient to show I ll return back to home country”.

Hello Nyaoffiong,

These are just generic reasons. You ought to have ordered your note to know of VO's comment. Nevertheless, you can still order it now to have a full view(s) of the refusal.

But situation you cant wait for note, you really need to work on your home ties to Nigeria. Ties that will warrant you to come back after studies

Ketima:


What level of degree you sort. That will determine if waec is necessary or not

Bachelor of Technology (B.tech)

Good day all,

Please after getting a biometrics request how do you book for an appointment?

Once you get your BIL, kindly book your Biometrics from the VFS site by clicking/copy site address on your BIL and paste on your browser. The process is simple and easy

Ketima:


Get a letter of introduction from your company which stated your job functions and not just job position.

Those you mentioned are job position and not job functions. As a layman(same as VO's), cant assume I know your job functions from just looking at your job role.

That will help you write about it in the SOP and the LoI will now serve as a backup to your job function(s) claims before the VO

Thanks bro but letter of introduction does not carry job description. It only states the occupation, position and salary.

Thanks bro but letter of introduction does not carry job description. It only states the occupation, position and salary.

Hello Finnacle,

Your letter of introduction from your establishment didn't carry job duties doesn't mean others don't. As a matter of fact, mine and many more others had it. It was employment/offer of appointment letter that had position, salary, allowances and branch posted.

I don't know how close you're to your HR team or line manager? Recommendation letter can help in that regards too.

All the best ok.

Hi guys, Great job here… Please can one use a first bank account for the MyBankStatement for proof of fund? I see a list of banks but first bank isn’t part of them.

Has anyone here used firstbank for the student express MyBankStatement Proof of fund?

FIRST BANK (FBN) do provide MBS , but seems its not too pronounced like other banks e.g. GTBank, Polaris etc. and its like MBS is fairly new to them. Also, some FBN branches might likely say they can't do it.

Take your time and go through the contents in the links below, then put it into action

Good luck!!!

Ok. Yes, for undergraduate studies, you need the waec. But then, don't know how your intended school does it application. But you may need to buy waec scratch card/pin and upload for the school to use and verify your waec.

Not too conversant with undergraduate application requirements. So let others guide you accordingly.

All the best

Chief Leki, how's studies bro. It's like you're on vacation now as your presence on the forum is felt already.
I have a simple question please:

After a Student's passport has been stamped, what are the requirements at the POE? I've heard of Acknowledgement letter and letter of Introduction from Embassy, then enrolment letter or so. Kindly update the house with the list again.
Thanks Mr. Chairman!!

Visit any of the First bank Big branch, mind you don’t use MYBANKSTATEMENT pronunciation once you get to their costumer service point coz it’s new to them and most of them don’t know it, tell them you want your account statement to be sent to Canada Embassy.

It's an affidavit or oath from the court of law that you would return to your home country after your propose visit or study.

IT ENDED IN PRAISE OHHHH
I am a silent reader and I won’t be happy if I don’t share my testimony.
I applied for study visa in September for January 2022 and I was rejected because of a mistake I made.
I deferred my admission to September 2022 and I re- applied on the 14th of February 2022.
I got my PPR on the 23rd of February 2022.

It can only be God.
I have received my passport back Months before I am to resume. I don’t even know if I should go early or wait till July/August
I am so happy and excited for this my Miracle.
It would definitely end in Praise.

Congrats dear, may the land of Canada favour you. Could you please share some insight on the mistake so we don't fall victim too

Good morning gurus,
I did my medical at IOM this morning. I submitted my application Feb. Pls am going to upload my new medical via webform and email Abuja, Nairobi, London or where precisely.
Can i seize this opportunity to remind them that my resumption is 24 April and upload my other supporting documents.
Pls it's very urgent

I just saw this from the link below that starting April 1st, pre entry test is no longer required for fully vaccinated travelers.

https://travel.gc.ca/travel-covid/travel-restrictions/covid-vaccinated-travellers-entering-canada#pre-entry-testing

Does this mean we won’t have to do any PCR test before our flight, or we’ll still need the test to board our flights here in Nigeria?

All foreign travelers must be vaccinated

You must be fully vaccinated to even board a flight from Nigeria

Hello Nyaoffiong

This is easy to tackle, you just have to work on your home ties and let it be so clear in your application that your Home ties will be your major reason for your return back to your home country after your study in Canada..

Meanwhile order for your GCMS notes..

Peace

Having lost my husband a while back and with the current state of the country as we all know, I made the decision to migrate to Canada with my two children through the Canadian study route. After conducting various researches and upon some consultations, I began to feel like this was an impossible feat as I came across various takes from individuals claiming how nearly impossible getting an approval would be for me. This was exacerbated by the fact that the program I was applying for was totally different from my educational background (You see, I had applied for a Global Hospitality Management program with a previous degree in Accounting). According to various people, this further slimmed my chances of having my visa approved.

Then came @Frankrobbn1. I came across Mr, Frank (CEO of fandrglobal.com) in my search for a reliable, competent and result-proven agent who could handle my peculiar case and put together a befitting profile for me. I had read several reviews about the quality of his services and how he had already helped many individuals move to Canada, but the unique thing is that none of these reviews even did true justice to Mr. Frank's efficiency.

Once I placed him on retainer, he assured me that I was in the best hands. However, this was my first trial and because of the peculiarity of my case, I was quite frantic. I called incessantly trying to know how far he had gone and how he was progressing with my application. Surprisingly, for a man with a busy schedule, Mr. Frank never lost his cool over my calls. He continuously reassured me that he was exerting his full expertise into putting together the best profile for me. Even after he had submitted and I would still call for updates, Mr. Frank still calmed me down by insisting in the quality of his competence which had already as he would say 'been tested and trusted'. Truly, I have confirmed the truth of the quality of @Frankrobbn1 's services because behold my visa has just been APPROVED for both myself and MY TWO CHILDREN!! Truly what seemed impossible has now materialized.

I pray that the almighty God will bless @Frankrobbn1 for me. The good Lord that used you to work a testimony for me will continue to elevate you. There are not enough words to express the amount of joy coursing through my body right now. My children and I will be making the move to CANADA!. Our migration success story would have never been written without Mr. Frank.

My fellow Nairalanders and aspiring migrants who are seeing this testimony and wish to make the move to Canada, my honest advice to you is to consult @Frankrobbn1 for his expert services on packaging the best immigration applicationfor you. I can assure you that whatever amount spent on procuring such services will not be remembered when you are staring your approval in the face. I wish you all the best and I hope to see everyone here in Canada someday. Thank you and God bless.

Congratulations Madam, thank you so much for the detailed review of your experience working with us. We are happy that we could play a major role in making your dream come true. I hope you and your family have the most enjoyable stay in Canada!

I want to believe that your application is currently in process, however you went on to undergo an upfront medical examination. In this case, you're to upload a copy of your medical slip issued to you by the panel physician on IRCC webform and notify them to update your records accordingly. Given that your school resumption is near, I will suggest you send them emails to request for an update on your application.
