Any feedback from IRCC yet?

Your Tuition plus additional $10k Cad ,thats what is required by ircc atleast to be available on ur pof.. Even if d funding is enough to cover all d tuition and d additional 10k required, it makes sense if u can further show to the VO that without the funding or work in Canada , you will be good to go and financially ok to live in Canada during your study years

By the way, which other expenses should be covered?

These are the expenses:

Tuition for each semester = $2,639.50
Athletics = $92.46
GSS Bus Pass = $81.00
Graduate Student Society = $95.25
GSS Dental Plan = $284.55
GSS Extended Health Plan = $409.00
Mandatory Medical Insurance = $265.00

Therefore, the person would pay the following for each term;
Fall Term = $3,866.76
Winter Term = $2,908.21
Summer Term = $2,908.21
Average for a year = $9,683.18

So, the person is left with $10,000+

Is there any other fee to show funding for?

Babysoldier:
did u use the NSE?

No, I didn’t.

Welsh2np:


Oh, we Dey wait for this your timeline oh. The thing Dey shock us oh. Abeg do fast fast, as e Dey hot!!!

(Also, if you did something which you feel is different, kindly let us know) thanks

You’re right.
I will try to include some tips which I consider useful, with my timeline.

Thank you very much for your response. Actually the person is currently doing a PhD progeam in China, but needs to relocate because his supervisor just resigned.
The person has not been able to work anywhere, hence he doesnt have any proof of fund to show.
I think he said he contacted someone about all these POFs of a thing and that person asked him to pay #150k per month for #5m. The truth is that the guy can not afford such money monthly. This is why I askes the question on his behalf if it is compulsory to present statement of account.

What could you suggest in this situation?

Thank you

Dear Gurus in the house.
Please i have a question. my sister got admission and about to apply for visa. She has two kids. both american citizen (by birth though all in Nigeria presently). The last born does not have a Nigerian passport yet but done and she was told it might take some time before she gets the babys Nigerian passport. She is press in time and want to apply ASAP .
Question is can she apply for the study permit with the united state passport for them or what other option is available. though i was also thinking since usa citizen can go into canada for 6mth without visa probably she can just do hers and when she gets to canada and also whe she has gotten their passport she can then apply for student permit for them in canada. Please any guidance will be appreciated.
Thanks

To be on the safe side of IRCC, advice him to get extra POF.
...

...
speaking of which: the $19k funding he got would be paid to him AFTER he resumes, settles down and possibly opens a Canadian account. So let’s be realistic, how does he hope to cover the cost of flight, housing for the first few weeks and settling down allowances?

(I stand to be corrected on the kind of funding tho. Do they pay him his funding even BEFORE he arrives?)

I am not sure that any scholarship body or funding body pays before arrival. Your point is very valid. I have seen a reason he must get proof of fund.

In anyway, I just hope he can get an affordable proof of fund sha. What people are requesting for is too much for the proof of fund. Imaging paying #150k monthly for a POF of #5m. Thats ridiculously high.

I have seen different timelines on this thread overtime.
From 1 week to 2 weeks and some past 2 weeks.
I think drop off VFS location contributes to the timeline difference.
Sent mine to VFS Lagos and got a mail from them stating that it had been received and sent to VFS Abuja for processing.

Thank you. Is it better I do drop off?

Waiting on them now.

When are you traveling

hayoBams:
Good day everyone,
I’m trying to check in for my flight with Ethiopia airline an on this page I was told to upload documents, what documents do I upload please? It’s urgent �

Thanks thanks

2pretty4u:


Yes, you will sign on their behalf. You are welcome.

Maybe he should look for a sponsor .
Yes! those guys doing the pof tin charge d range of 3-3.5% .. so 150k for 5m is true .
But this parole works well for UK compared to Canada, UK doesnt really give a damn about lump sum amount but Canada does. Uk jus wanna see u maintain dat amount for 28days but that isn’t applicable for Canada . Unless he can use documents to explain the lump sum anyway, maybe to claim its return on xoxoxo investment or sales of xoxoxo property , but then he must back it up with proof

Good day gurus,
Pls I need help on how to package my proof of funds as my mother who is my sponsor plans to sell her properties for 12m, would it be enough for an estimated tuition of CAD19800, also am thinking of using it as gift deed, or how shuld i present it to the visa officer? My sponsor also has intention to use the money to increase her business so she can be paying the school fees from her buisness. I would also like to know if I should add mpower loan to back it up.pls advise me on it

daffy22:
My flight to Canada is on Thursday, can I start uploading my documents on ArriveCan today?? And if you recently traveled please what documents did they ask you at the border?

Dear Daffy, you no longer need ArriveCan. Just keep your LOA, proof of payment if any, proof of enrollment if any handy. If not registered for classes yet, they will ask who is sponsoring or MAY ask for SOA.
I know who people travelled recently without ArriveCan.

All the best.

Dear Dollarsolution,

Kids with American passports don't need visas to enter Canada. They will be given a visitor record at the border. You can apply for student permits when inside of Canada if they are of school age. She can apply for just hers.

There are people we have seen on NL who did same and are in Canada now.

All the best

Hi John,

When did you submit yours and which VFS office did you address it to?[/quote

Submitted on 16th via DHL, VFS Lagos sent me an acknowledgement mail on 17th.
One thing that's confusing me is that the email stated that they had dispatched my ppt to Abuja from Lagos for stamping. I don't understand cos my biometrics was done in Lagos.

Your sister does not need to apply for her children,she is only paying for herself.American citizens do not apply for visa to Canadian embassy.She can just metion in her SOP that she will travel with them,attach their US passsports too and also indicate in the form when filling.When she get her study permit,at the airport the children will be given study permit.

Did you just read your biometrics message since it was sent in march?

Have you done your medicals and biometrics?
If yes then send webforms and emails to IRCC for feedback.

The only assistance you can render for the new applicants right here is to post your timeline and documents submitted.

If you can get the mpower loan add it to ur application
