Please how long does it take them to reply I sent one last week and this morning.

Hello Guys

Anyone here who has applied to Fanshawe Collage to help me clear this up, during the application the first question is country of citizenship and when i choose my country this is what it states, all student applications from Nigeria must be submitted via one of the College's approved education agents. For a full list of approved education agents, please contact Fanshawe College's International Office at agent@fanshawec.ca.
My question here is anyone here who applied to Fanshawe and had this same experience? if yes when you email the international student office how long it took to get response.

Congratulations! May the land of Canada favour you in Jesus mighty name. Amen

It's a go!

aclfemmy:
It feels good to be here to share my ppr testimony guys.

I do sincerely appreciate all the information and personal experiences shared on this thread. It has indeed helped quite a lot of people among whom, I'm a prime and bonafide beneficiary. I couldn't have done less by not holding from the forum in which I have profited immensely.

I shall be sharing my experience and timeline for my 2 applications which herald this success I've just achieved today.

My epistle may be quite long but I shall endeavour to break it in such a way that it won't bore you.

First and foremost, I will like us to imbibe the culture of reading especially of something that is quite edifying like the info on this nairaland Canada study permit. It's a fountain and repository of knowledge. If you get yourself busy with it prior to your application, you may not need to ask questions or seek assistance from any gurus.

Enough said about the preamble and now, back to the basis.

I'm 41 years of age. The journey to Canada started for me in 2021; precisely, in October. But I have no idea about the know-how. I, therefore, typed the travelling to Canada on google and I landed in nairaland, precisely thread 18 thru 19. Believe me, I read the entire thread which I started from Oct till around November.

After reading the 2 threads; 18 and 19, I became very adept at the whole process both school admission and study permit application. Needless to say, I also read other info that's related to Canadian stuff that cut across immigration both temporary and permanent residency permits.

Having been armed with the acquired info, I applied for a mission at MUN for both Graduate Diploma in Business Administration (GDBA) and MBA but the GDBA admission came out with a speed of light in less than 2 weeks. I applied for admission in December and was offered admission the same December before the closed of the semester. I waited a little bit for the MBA admission but it didn't come on time. I have to go ahead and apply for the study permit with the GDBA LOA on March 1st, 2022. This is my first application

Find below the timeline:

Portal GCkey
* Application date 01/03/2022
* Biometric enrolment 04/03/2022
* Upfront medical. 14/04/2022
* Medical updated 27/04/2022
* Eligibility review 29/04/2022
* Eligibility recommend passed 29/04/2022 - this is as per gcms notes
* Eligibility failed 05/05/2022 - this is also as per gcms notes and is reviewed by another VO other than the one recommend it passed.
* Refusal notice 05/05/2022.

Refusal reasons were the purpose of visit and travel history.

My academic background in accounting and finance both HND at Yabatech (2002) and B.A (Hons) at University of Sunderland Uk (2014). I have been to the UK at least once and I have also had prior UK visa refusal which I disclosed. I have been working for the past fifteen years across multiple accounting and finance designation

The refusal decision heartbroken me so much that I least expected it. I therefore hurriedly reach out to some guys who are on nairaland through their private emails. Out of the whole lots I contacted, Makano was the first to contact me and he gave me his bill which I don't mind paying thinking that the application will be done instantly and I will get approval. But that wasn't the case. Honestly, those a who got refusal and were able to announce it on the platform here were quite lucky as they got apt advice which was what they need to re-fire. In my case, the refusal overwhelmed me and I didn't. If I have done, the decision to engage the Makano wouldn't have arisen. By and large, he did a great job!

He did advise I should apply for the notes which he did on my behalf at a fee. I applied for the note on the 6th of May 2022 and it came out on the 2nd of June 2022.

There in the note, the visa officer misdirected himself, obviously and erroneously, under his reasoning for my purpose of visit that my purpose was of visit was unreasonable as I have current qualifications that's way higher than the intended course of study in Canada. And for my travel history, he said he my travel history or lack of it won't count in his assessment of my eligibility and for that reason he's refusing my application.

Come June 22nd 2022, I reapplied with the same set of docs. I only added LOE (3 pages). There in the LOE I explained the errors and misgivings of the VO with verifiable evidences which links pasted therein. I further got in touch with my faculty advisor about the development. He in turn got in touch on my behalf to the associate Deen of faculty to get a letter clarifying that the intended course of study is way higher than the current qualification I have and that I'm eminently qualify for the choice course of study.

I attached this additional documents to the same docs in my first application and I refire thru ircc portal (the new portal). The gckey portal locked me out due to network glitch otherwise it's the gckey I would have use again.

HELLO HOUSE, GOOD EVENING, PLEASE I INTEND ON APPLYING FOR FALL NEXT YEAR, BUT I HAVE ISSUE WITH MY WAEC CERTIFICATE AS THE YEAR OF BIRTH IS WRONG, HOW DO YOU THINK I CAN TACKLE THIS ISSUE AS EVERY OTHER DOCUMENT AS THE CORRECT DATE ?

You can visit waec office for that since you still have time before your application.

You are blessed my sister. God is at work. The power of positive confession. Waiting for the good news for my son's application too. The set time to be favored has come. O Lord God let your invisible oil of favour soak the documents of NL applicants for Canadian study permit. PPR all the way... Amen.

CharitoJames:
Let me go do my manicure and pedicure because i need my nails to be beautifully done before IRCC will give me this ring i am about to wear now… I can’t type my PPR gist with unkept nails.
Have a lovely day

CharitoJames:
Amen!!!! This is spirit lifting and Hope building. I will testify soon

Amen

Phorlly43:

This is incorrect.

Going to waec office will delay and most likely cost you more money cos they will extort you.

The applicant could simply go to a court and swear an affidavit of age. The affidavit must bear the same name and date of birth on the international passport.

You have to be patient. VFS will always update you when there are changes to the location of the passport

Please gurus in the house, what could be the cause for someone to have a different UCI number different from the previous application UCI number?

What could one do to rectify it?

Pace6:
Please gurus in the house, what could be the cause for someone to have two different UCI numbers after submitting an application?

It is not possible to have two different UCI numbers. You can have different application numbers but not UCI.

Your biometrics information and application are stored in your UCI number hence why you can not do biometrics twice
