As long as you know you application number and UCI number, just bombard IRCC with emails and web forms on the urgency to to upload your medical sheet and urgently process your application.

Good evening everyone, I have been a silent reader for quite some time due to my schedule, firstly i want to appreciate everyone here for sharing timelines and offering helpful information from time to time. So i actually used an agent for both my admission and study permit application, my agent is based in canada and has helped a couple of my friends get to canada successfully but he can actually an asshole. So he doesn't communicate properly and can be slow with things due to his busy schedule i guess. Long story short, he applied for my study permit on
7th Aug 2022 and i did my biometric on 10th Aug 2022. I just did an upfront medical on 14th Nov 2022 and my agent requested for an e-medical doc i was given at iom for him to upload. So at this point i reached out to him asking him about what is going on with my process and he says there is no update on my portal and nothing can be done than just to wait until he gets an update from the IRCC. I got here and i see people putting some extra effort on their application process. Please i need some advice on what to do about this whole thing, I don't have access to my portal and i am to resume Fanshawe college 3rd Jan 2023. I will really appreciate every advice i can get.. Thanks

Dayo96:
Thanks.
Amen. God will come through for every one of us awaiting a decision from IRCC.

Amen ..please hope if decision are made .. a mail will be sent to the email address used to apply or do one has to be checking the portal?..

He doesn't need the email address used to apply for web form and mails.
As long as he has his UCI an application number, he can send mails and webforms with no issues.

johnstan:
There is really nothing you can do than wait.
You will not be able to send webforms and emails on your behalf because you do not have access to your portal or application details like your application number, UCI number and the email address used to apply.

You can ask for these details and send webforms/email yourself or ask the agent to send on your behalf.

If you keep quiet IRCC will take their time with your application.

I received emails when the decision was taken. Actually, the emails came in quick succession.
The medicals (outstanding for 3 members of the family) were updated this evening because when I checked the portal in the afternoon they had not been updated, and I saw the Correspondence letters and PPR Letters waiting for me.

How this ghost update Dey be

Good evening all, I look forward to also joining this ship of testifiers come next year.

My wife is about to start applying to schools and we will definitely be going together.

When it comes to POF, will it be possible to use my account statement or will I need to send the money to hers since we don't have a joint account?

I will really appreciate getting to know things to watch out for as well as things to avoid.

On your application you will see Update Activity/Account Update on the status but nothing will change from the status of the application.They call it ghost update.

I've been mailing them since forever

Ladyj143:
Did you mail them? I just mailed them yesterday that my application has passed the processing time, and I got decision today, though is not a good one, but I thank God I got their response on time.
Good luck

bullstriker:
Like @Johnstan stated, you need to decide on the program you want to study. To improve your chances of getting the study permit, go for a program related to your present occupation if you are not a recent graduate.
Let me know if you need assistance applying or getting an affordable school.

Please I need school with low tuition fees for postgraduate

Okay ..am praying seriously for a fast response like yours..am seriously waiting for my own evidence..I must testify in Jesus name. Amen

He doesn't need the email address used to apply for web form and mails.
As long as he has his UCI an application number, he can send mails and webforms with no issues.

You can't send mails to IRCC with just any random email, it has to be with your registered email on your application.
Webform will also ask you to input your registered email in one of the columns before you submit, you cannot just input any email.

Send me a message

Hi gurus in the house, thanks for saving lives with your advise and guidance. My wife is supposed to start her programme by Fall (Sept) 2023. We want to start our application by March 2023 (since our PoF should be ready then) . What time would you advise us to start the Biometric and Medical processing upfront. What is the relation with respect to time between Biometric and Medical Processing as Student Permit application we have seen can take btw 13wks to 17wks or more/less.

Medicals can be done before you apply - upfront medicals.
Biometrics is on instruction from IRCC after application.
These stages will be updated to passed on your application portal after they are received and processed by IRCC, They're some of the stages before the final eligibility review.

Good luck.

It comes like a ghost in midnight wearing white �

Congratulations! Your application is solid!!

Once again, its PPRRRRR - Loooooonnnnggggg post alert!!

First off, I’d like to thank God and many members of this platform for helping and keeping things running on here.

My profile in summary: 25y/o single male, parent sponsored, Computer Engineering BSc, graduated with second class upper, going for MSc, Computational Sciences. Graduated in 2020, worked as a Software Engineer ever since then.

Timeline and Events
New Portal
First-time applicant
Applied by myself. Learnt all from Google, Youtube, and Nairaland

July 4: Upfront medicals
July 8: Application on New Portal
July 8: Biometrics Request
July 13: Gave biometrics and received on portal
** Somewhere in between I’d uploaded my medical sheet from IOM via webform. Can’t remember when.
August 4 (2AM): Sent mail to Lagos, Nairobi, London and attached my medical sheet.
August 4 (Around 1pm): Biometrics and Medicals updated to pass.
** Long wait, ordered notes, CBSA and GCMS, nothing tangible.
October 11: Sent mail to MP
October 13: MP got back literally saying the same thing on portal.
** Around this period, started firing several versions of mails and webforms.
Nov 16: MP reached out to them again – Preassessment done, eligibility not started.
Nov 17 (Around midnight): Sent mails to Beijing, London, Lagos, Abuja, Nairobi.
Nov 17 (Around 12pm): Eligibility review started on portal
Nov 17 (Around 9pm): BVL and PPR

Little story, for POF which is usually a concern, I had like 5.5M in my account, $2k USD in dorm account. 5M was gift deed from my Dad, he had 25M in fixed deposit since July 2021. As at the time I applied, the money was fixed. There were several opinions about this, but I kept it that way even though I was scared sh*tless. The closing balance of that account was 77k in fact.

Around November 9 ish, I sent updated statement showing liquidated funds and my Dad transferred the balance of like 8M to me since I’d enrolled in courses. My savings in Naira and USD had grown, I also got salary raise at work so I packaged all these and sent severally via webforms – both old and new. Oh yeah, I’ve ordered like 3 notes and I still have 4 pending lol.

I’m adding all of these because I’m not sure what did the trick. It’s pretty much a combination of all.

Go for a post graduate certificate program

Good morning fam,
I want to confirm as I want to reapply, can I use same account or am to create a new account? I want to start adding my duc before the CBSA notes comes out then edit.
I need advice on this, I read animal science BAgric
I finished my nysc since 2010 and 2011 I got job with a bank till date.
My question now
In my SOP I explained my passion for agriculture, I got the admission to study animal science technology which I stated that I want to come back to my home country to practice artificial insemination, cross breeding animals especially having mixed with exotic breeds. However even with my job I still rear animals as of when I wrote my SOP I have 15 cattle under the care of the fulani I stated but didn't add the pix, d cattle are 19 now, 4 have given birth and have small poultry at home, but I didn't register my business.
With this if I rewrite my SOP and add pix will it surface?
Secondly a friend told me I don't need to touch my SOP that may be there's something I didn't get well while filling my form, cos of the response
THE PURPOSE OF YOUR VISIT TO CANADA IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH A TEMPORARY STAY GIVEN THE DETAILS YOU HAVE PROVIDED IN YOUR APPLICATION. Please gurus advise I just want to start something before the notes comes.

Thank you

Thanks for your response.
I read online that the PGDip is equivalent to masters. Can someone use PG certificate to secure a job? Like is it recognize or you still have to do masters.

Are Canadian community colleges good school candidates? Hope they don’t get refused visas like in the US ?

First and foremost, the response was generic. The only way to know exactly the VO’s concern/s are is to order your notes.

One thing I have observed in this journey, when claiming you have something, always try to back it up with proofs, so try to get your business registered and also show pictures to ascertain ownership of what you’re claiming.

To me, you can use same account if the money is available and enough to cover your program cost and also living expenses plus miscellaneous. But if you feel the need to do a GIC you can go ahead.

I do not think you didn’t fill the form properly, but like I said, you have to get your notes first to know what’s up with the VO’s concern.

Goodluck going forward

It will end in praise.

In my own opinion, before the gurus answer you, I think you should add the pictures of your cattle, your farm, if you have the picture of when they’re giving birth, add it. Just my own little opinion, wait for the gurus to answer you in details
