WHAT GOD CANNOT DO, DOES NOT EXIST!

God has shown mercy to me and my children.

My SOWP and my 3 children's Study Visa applications have been approved by IRCC.

1st Applications

Our 1st applications made in June 2021 were all refused on 25th September 2021. The main concern of the VO, as revealed in the GCMS note, was that my wife, who is a Masters student in BC, filled on her application form that her family would not accompany her to Canada. The VO questioned the truthfulness of my wife's statement in her application, when we now applied for visas while she was still in Nigeria. VO said other things which we considered circumstantial.

I came on this platform then to seek for advice and I really obtained valuable advice from members. What did we do?

2nd Applications

We filed another set of applications on 8th November 2021 with my wife explaining the reasons for her change in plan. We filed additional documents showing stronger home ties by exhibition of pictures of our parents, affidavits of birth of our parents and affidavit of births of my siblings. I also exhibited share certificate, receipt of payment of professional dues, together with landed property. I showed rent receipts issued to our tenants.

Along the line, my wife wrote her MP sometime in February 2022 seeking for a status update on our applications. The response was that criminality check was passed and nothing more. Our upfront medicals expired in April 2022, but I refused to go for any more upfront medicals. If they are ready, they will contact us. I was drained, both emotionally and psychologically, noting that the journey began in June 2021. I only held on to God, as a lot was at stake.

There was a time I read an email IRCC had sent to someone here requesting for updated transcripts of his student spouse. I took the initiative by sending my wife's updated transcripts sometime in late April 2022. I have a feeling this had a positive impact on our applications.

Boom, medical request showed for my children and I on 16th May 2022. We quickly sent an email to QLife who gave us an appointment in about 9 days later. Medicals were updated to "pass" for my children on 7th June, while they got their PPR on 9th June. For me, my medical was updated to "pass" on 8th June, while my PPR only came on 29th June.

In between my children's PPR and 29th June, I sent their passports to Abuja the penultimate Monday and we received the stamped passports on 28th June. I almost sent another webform on 29th June with the plan to exhibit my children's visas and seeking a quick response on my application. By 9am on 29th June, 2 "donotreply" emails had come into my inbox.

My wife travelled to BC since September 2021, leaving me with 3 active boys, while IRCC kept playing the delay game. Thank God it has ended in praise.

I wish to say a big thank you to members on this forum who were responsive to my questions at the relevant times. Really appreciate.

To everyone still waiting, hang on there. It's not over until you have won. You can't afford to give up. Keep praying and sending the webforms, the golden emails will surface shortly.

Thank you All!

Please someone should send me format on how to write letter of explanation regarding financial capacity

Someone should help please

I got mine about a week ago from Keystone bank. I used to work there and it still took over two weeks. This forex allocation is real

Misstolaly:
Good afternoon House,

Please, who recently got their Form A transaction approved and tuition paid? Which Bank did you use, please? Globus just rejected my transaction at the supervisor stage because of no FX allocation.

I want to try Stanbic since UBA and Globus have not come through, being trying to open a Providus bank account for more than a week but have not received OTP via SMS and email, and their customer service cannot help too. I'm open to trying another bank too once I know they might deliver.

The black market rate is a no-go area for me.

If you don’t mind me asking a few questions?

1. Have you travelled outside Nigeria before?
2. Was there no evidence that you have family in Nigeria.
3. What course is your Bsc and the one you applied in Canada?
4. Did you present any assets of your own? How much was in your bank account statement?

JapaProf:
Clarity. Explain in details, use figures and dates to back up your claims where necessary. Keep your letter of explanation short but detailed, address whatever you think may be a bone of contention. When you are done, send it in for proofreading.

Thank You. Can I have your email?

Good Morning,

Anything to save cost o my brother

Yes, that was what the VO stated in the gcms note.

Members on this forum then were of the view that having stated that her family was non-accompanying, we should have waited for my wife to travel and settle down first, fir at least 3 months prior to submission of our applications.

I think I agree with that notion, except one had indicated that the family would accompany.

sinorte:
Congratulations to you and your family.

Did you mean the initial application was refused because your wife stated in her SP application that you were not going to accompany her to Canada and, more so, because she hadn't left Nigeria then? Please clarify.

JapaProf:

Please can I also mail you to proofread my sop and loe?

Yes you can use form A for Accomodation, because it is going to schools account. Everything is tuition. If it is not the school providing the accommodationthen it
won't be possible

You can pay accommodation with Form A if it is the school's account. For my daughter, I added everything together, i.e school fees, student union, insurance and accommodation, feeding etc and paid the lump sum via Form A. Then chose education. Generated invoice from the school's website.

francisxbee:

JapaProf:
It is in my signature.

Okay. Thanks alot

JapaProf:
You will need a very convincing SOP in your next application. I write the best SOPs for applicants.

how much

Thank you for the clarification. God bless
