Thats kind of true that was why i explained how i did last time

afrobrown2000:
@skull4eva hmm its all depends when/date you want to travel, airline and the point of entry....i got 1.7m for a family of 4 its was a herculean task wifey runs a travel company ...we had to waitlist and eyes on it for a cheaper ticket to drop for the end of this month

Abeg how will i do it? Which airline did you book?

I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay
I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will
leave Canada, based on the following factors:
• You do not have significant family ties outside Canada
This is the reply I got from the visa officer, he denied me based on family tie outside of Canada, please can I reapply this week again,have been to court to do affidavit of return after study and a friend is willing to give me appointment letter and study leave from is work place cuz he is a manager there,it's a big hotel in Lagos. Please hel6

Please help I was denied and the visa officer reply was that I do not have significant family tie outside of Canada,school resumes in September 6,please can I meet up if I reapply and can I add documents like study leave in the new application, cuz I have a friend who is willing to give me study leave and appointment letter from his dad office, can I do a court wedding with my fiance and add the marriage certificate to it also as a proof of home tie, Thanks
In my previous application I included my house documents and my lands all on my name, but I just did affidavit of return after study
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay. I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will

I am sorry about your refusal.... don't be worried, this is just a delay, you shall definitely receive your good news
Based on my little knowledge, I will advise you to defer if possible to the nearest resumption date other than September.
And try to tackle the reasons for the refusal adequately so that it will not be a problem for another future application (maybe sowp)
This new appointment letter: did you initially state anything about this job in your previous application? If No, the VO (maybe different from the initial one) might question its genuineness * judging from the documentation they already have*

Also, on the wedding issue: they definitely know that your spouse will join you sooner or later. Some people applied as single and they still got their approval though.
So defer your admission, get the job and some other documents from the job apart from study leave & appointment letter and let them see some job progression, with pay slips, evidence of salary entering into your account, some home ties with parents/grandparents, by then your marriage must have been some months old and you can present documents on that and reasons why you will leave after your study (if you can also support it with some home ties from your wife's side) or any other document that can convince the VO that you would leave.

Please this is just my view, other people might see it differently. I really wish you the very best by God's grace.

So sorry about your refusal.. since there is just one refusal reason, take your time and tackle it well.

I will suggest that you request for reconsideration and highlight the documents that u sent before as home ties and politely explain to the VO that you do have home ties and ask them to reconsider the decision- maybe they missed it. You can send this via email and webform and you don’t have to pay for it so you won’t lose anything. While doing that, you should take time and prepare a new application, gather sufficient and stronger documents. You can probably add your fiancée and pictures and maybe a wedding invitation letting them know u will return for your wedding or to ur husband: just establish a strong and realistic story.
I also think you should inform your school of the possible delay and let them know you may need to defer. You can also contact ur school international student advisor for advice

Take care with your next application and make accurate explanations and you will be fine. Best wishes.

Now i will strongly suggest you request for your GCMS notes it will be more specific on what the thoughts of the VO is. Aside this i will like to ask do you have ur nuclear family members in Canada already? If yes then you need to look for a stronger bond to tie yourself to nigeria. Using your spouse if you eventually get married isnt a good idea because i am sure you will eventually want her to be with you and these VOs will be trying to make sure ur ties dont leave.
Now the job offer could be used as a strong bond of return along side the affidavit of return as well as your properties if well channelled. Get the job offer, get and introduction letter from the same establishment stating what you are doing there, how much you earn per annum and your contibution to the establishment. Get another letter again from the same company stating their support for your studies and this will include them putting in writing that they will support your studies abroad by still paying your renumeration while on study leave and that upon return you will be given full benefits with a promotion to a higher position and a salary raise. Now in your LOE you will need to put a legal tune on the bond of return that your career hinges on it in that if you dont return they could sue you and sue your guarantor that stood for you while you were away and this will badly affect your career and could also land your guarantor a jail term. Let a lawyer sign and get it notorized.
Then you will need to do an evaluation of all your properties in ur name let them know the worth in cash signed by a lawyer and notorized by a notory public.
[/b]Note that all these job pertaining letters must be on the company letter head and duely signed.[b]
Your application should fly that way. Just my view though hear from others

Hi Adebamfem

Sorry for the delay.

This is July, it's not impossible for you to meet up with September resumption date. Act fast.

In addition to your proposal below, add birth certificates of birth of your parents and siblings. Show pictures of you and your parents together and then that of your siblings. State how you support your parents (financially and otherwise) and how much you would return to Nigeria to continue to care for them.

Wishing you success.

1. You need covid 19 test to enter the plane but not to enter canada. At the point of entry they wont require covid 19 test from you but to enter the plane it remains a requirement.
2. You do not need to book a return ticket you sowp can easily be renewed within Canada so a return ticket is not required.

Ur sowp was approved right? You can allow IRCC to withdraw or cancel it for you or they can send you a mail to withdraw it. If your passport has been stamped for the sowp you can also withdraw it by going to the webform and choose the option of withdraw application it will be withdrawn.

Hello Skull4eva,

As regards the bolded, are you referring to showing PCR test when boarding plane and which airline is that?

Please kindly clarify cos people who travelled recently weren't asked.

Thanks

That was what i meant ooo Airfrance asked ooo

My timeline
The journey started in 2020 when i applied for visa for myself and my family together after i got admission for a phd in mcgill. I didnt get funding so i looked for a sponsor who was not a close relative my visa was denied alongside that of my family on basis of funds no travel history and that what was the perosn standing to gain in sponsoring my education. Now i went back to the drawing board decided to reapply alone got some level of funding from my supervisor 18k cad per year then i also got a gift of deed from my parents to increase my financial capacity added the sponsor statement again paid my full tuition for winter 2021 january then reapplied again in december 2020. My visa was approved in my but i didnt travel till july ending. I applied for my spouse sowp while i was in nigeria on 22nd of July 2021 and then the wait started.
Did upfront medicals for her but didnt do for the two kids becos they were both less than 3yrs as at then.
I was scared for 3 major reasons
1. financially becos i only had 5k USD in dorm account, 2m in my naira account and 2.4m in my spouse naira account as well as my sponsorship letter for the application.
2. I applied from nigeria and most gurus adviced against that although immediately i enter canada i sent my study permit as well as sin and invitation letter to support spouse application via webform and email
3. I changed my program from a phd to a masters when i entered and these things made me afraid
When i waited and waited I booked a flight in december to come see my family and made my two kids do medical then. I came back in january hoping to get the news of their approval soon but it took another 6months. Although i sent my flight itenary as well as transcripts and other bursaries and funding i got and even my canada bank statement but they were just acknowledged IRCC didnt work on the file. My Mp started the follow up since sept and he did it till june 15th He is really a wonderful man. He even told me last week that they already put a brought forward date on my spouse sowp file to treat it on july 6 next week.
Lets i forget i sent message to IRCC virtually almost every day and it got to a point in march that dey said i shud apply for my kids vv on the new portal so i quickly applied for my kids and spouse on march 25 2022 yet nothing. I kept on sending them mails and webform infact i sent mail to the minister of immigrations, countless times. On may 2nd my kids application attached to my wifes sowp was withdrawn on the old portal.
Finally, yesterday i think they withdraw my wifes application for VV and approved that of my kids and then sent her a medical request on her sowp portal becos her upfront medical was done june 22 2021 so it had expired i was even thinking it was july so i spoke to one of my bosses @akintommy and he was like to push it IRCC has reviewed it that was why dey requested for another. We have started to find how to get the medical done fast fast ooo so that i can send the passport together if possible.
Sincerely, i entered and came out of depression so many times but Thank God it ended in praises. Nah to start to live the canadian dream remain. Because Canada is like the back yard of heaven. Nigeria is like the backyard of hell. God will answer everyone on the waiting list with PPR.
#Greatful heart#

Congratulations. I want to totally disagree with you, Canada isn't anything close to what you just term it to be and Nigeria isn't either. Visit Australia, Germany or Malaysia or Singapore and you would change that. If not for our govt.

Regarding this PCR test, my husband is on his way to Canada now and he's flying Egypt air.
He didn't do Covid/PCR test but they asked for it at 3 different points. He said he just presented his vaccination card and the ArriveCan email, and that was it. I don't know if we can conclude that these 2 documents can suffice in place of the PCR test.

Thanks for this insight. We will use this method.

Ok. I have read from Ethiopian airlines countless times and they didn't say one must do PCR test if fully vaccinated unless I'm reading it wrongly. Let me share the Ethiopian airlines link so eyes can read to interpret for us.

https://www.ethiopianairlines.com/aa/travel-updates/updates-on-covid-19(coronavirus)

And please who has flown Ethiopian airline of recent? Was PCR requested?

skull4eva:

Nawa oo. Hmm, even when fully vaccinated.

Seriously, I don't know if the information given from respective airlines' offices is contradicting or it's individual that wasn't clear about it.

Before I booked my flight, I contacted Egypt Air, Air France, Ethiopian Airline and Lufthansa and I was told I don't need any covid test if I'm fully vaccinated and I presented a verifiable vaccination card. Also, some recent travellers said they were not asked since they're fully vaccinated.

The contradicting info may be as a result of not fully explaining our vaccination status when we make enquiries, and those that were asked to present it may not be vaccinated or they took only the first jab.

Once your vaccination card and ArriveCan app code is presented, you are good. However, on arrival you can be randomly selected for a test but will not stop or delay you. Just take the test and the result will be forwarded to your e-mail.

Good idea but the proof of fund can only work if u do either of two things
1. Pay ur tuition or a tuition deposit from that account
2. Or the compnay transfer from that account the equivalent of ur tuition or living expenses to your account now in this case you need to keep the transaction reference date and time put it in ur sop and also attach a bank receipt for the transaction as evidence.
If you use method 1, u need to also state it in ur sop date and time and also provide a transaction evidence as well as school receipt. My opinion oooo.
