No. But he stated it on the sponsorship letter that he would be liable for funding me yearly with minimum of 7m and explained it on the letter that he has fulfilled his obligation this year by transferring the said amount into my account in two tranches and also included d date of the transaction so the VO could easily understand it while reviewing my statement and his own .

[quote author=jaydave post Did you explain the 8million in ur account and did your brother did gift deed for the 7million for you.

you should have paid your first semester tuition fee or the first year tuition fee

No he didn’t present gift deed .. but the transaction was well explained on his sponsorship letter and even on my SOP.

I’m thinking of paying the tuition deposit when I reapply

I will suggest that the best way to tackle the issue is for your sponsor to pay in the money to your account and back it up with a gift deed and also present a personal bank account statement stating that he will pick up your total sponsorship because if he continues to present his business account where his the sole owner IRCC will see it that when u need money he may not release money to you if his business also needs the money same time because if you look at it the total business money is almost what you need for your tuition and upkeep

Happy new year to everyone, I have been really busy with settling down in my new environment hence the lack of participation here, I know I have a duty to help out others on this journey seeing as this is the ideology on which this platform is built. That said, I will be available to answer questions from new nairalanders coming to Montreal QC. feel free to reach out.

Disclaimer
I am not a travel agent so I am not qualified to give visa or any related advice.
But I can give tips on how to hit the ground running for things like house searching, job hunting, course registration, connecting you to a Nigerian community.
emphasis on Montreal.
Thanks and happy new year.

Landing gist....

Everything from my admission to my arrival in Canada was my first attempt and I thank God for his grace.

My flight departure time was 1:40pm, it was moved to 1:20pm and I didn't know till I arrived at the airport, thankfully I was there 4 hrs to the time. See crowd (people dey really comot naija o) the place be like island market, noisy, ridiculously small, hot and unorganized.
Got in with fam members who came to see me off and firstly the scanner did not work for several minutes. When it finally worked/scanned my bags, I headed to the airline saying excuse me up n down so I could pass the crowd.
Omo despite all my arrangements the bags were 30kg each instead of 23kg each, na there I begin bargain for the excess luggage and had to settle them before I was able to check-in the bags. From there to immigration and customs, they were very fast, I only submitted my passport/tickets and filled the yellow card.
We left Lagos 40mins late cos everybody wan board at the same time, dem just dey shout *queue up, single line* but e no work. We sha boarded and damn those Ethiopian airline crew ladies fine sha.
My first flight experience and first international flight, I just dey happy dey smile like cow. Food served was actually good just that dem wan use rice choke person. Lunch and dinner na rice every time throughout all the flights.
Flight was good, got to Addis Ababa and mehn come see airport na, large, organized and finally people come queue. We did the usual scanning and routine search and joined the next flight after 2hrs layover. The descending flight at Dublin was the worst, my head wan explode, my belle just dey turning on ein own. It was as though we were falling instead of descending. After an hour of refueling we flew to Toronto from there.
Flight to Toronto was good, we arrived and met the large beautiful airport. See crowd of first time students. I could count the blacks/Nigerians, the rest were Indians/Asians.
We queued, did self declaration (arrive-can was useless) and In a few minutes we were issued our student permits (it's usually the entire duration of the visa/length of program).
Got out of the airport to pick an Uber and it was as though I walked into a deep freezer lol, I immediately wore my winter jacket ontop of the sweater I was wearing, wore my hand gloves and I was fine.

Canada is large and beautiful. Tarred roads, the express had like 10 lanes each. I was debited for the Uber ride immediately I booked unlike naija where you are billed after your ride. The driver Even stopped to buy fuel (in my mind if na naija now u fit stop dey buy fuel when my trip dey read?)

If I could do this myself, I believe anyone can and I pray that everyone still praying and hoping on God will smile at the end.

*At immigrations in Canada I was only asked if I brought meat. I said no and I was handed my study permit.
* I applied in July, was approved in Nov.
* Used the new portal cos I did not want to fill those Pdf forms on the old Portal.
* Non accompanying siblings/fam members are good home ties, ensure you upload anything linking you to them. (Pictures, birth certificates etc)
* I can't tell if they will be contacted or not.

Cheers.

Please i want to apply for myself, spouse and kids. from the research i have done, i have just have to fill the same forms as i filled for myself. (IMM 1294, 5707, 5409)

I'm so scared that i may be wrong.

Please can you kindly enlighten me on how to apply for study permit for myself, SOWP for my husband and Visiting Visas for my kids?

Are these IMM forms i listed also correct?

Thank you

LONG POST ALERT!
I know this is coming late but it is better late than never.
I am super grateful to God and to everyone contributing on this thread.

Received PPR for my study permit on Dec 22 and SOWP for my spouse on Dec 23

Application submitted on September 3rd
Biometrics done and updated the same day on Sept 8th for me & Sept 15th for spouse
Upfront medicals me on September 22nd
Eligibility started on October 27th
Upfront medicals passed for spouse on November 9th after sending webforms

Then silence... No update, nothing. The wait was frustrating.

Ordered CBSA notes on Oct 27 which came on Nov 23 and showed that everything was in order & eligibility was on review required

I already differed to May 2023 (I no wan book flight/travel under pressure) but I kept sending emails and webforms. At a point I scheduled like 35 emails daily

Sent email to Simon Fraser & Justin Trudeau on December 12 and received responses albeit generic (in short, told me to be patient)
Reached out to MP same day, she asked for my details and got back after a few days with same generic response and told me to keep checking portal for update.
I stopped sending emails on Dec 14. At this point I decided to leave everything in God's hands as I felt I had done everything I needed to do within my power. I never stopped praying all through. Sent webform on Dec 20th.

I was having a not so good day on 22nd when I decided to check my email, na so I see 2 donotreply emails. My heart was racing as I checked portal to see PPR for myself and ghost update for spouse. PPR dropped for my spouse the next morning.


Document submitted
All IMM forms
Admission letter (Cambrian College 1year course)
Tuition deposit receipt
MBS Statement of account
10months pay slip
Risevest USD statement of account (I left the funds in Risevest because funds in naira account already covers both tuition and living expenses)
Passport data page (no travel history)
Marriage certificate
Wedding pictures
Degree certificate
PGD certificate
IELTS (general)
Employment letter
Redeployment letter & email
Letter of introduction from work (couldn't get leave approval letter)
Work ID & complementary card
Resume (edited to Canadian style)
SOP (5 pages)
Land receipt, contract of sale & allocation
Receipt and contract of sale for a flat in both our names(not fully paid as it is Off-plan)
Car documents
CAC cert for a business name I registered in 2019 (never used)
My birth cert & ID
Parents/siblings birth certificates/ID
Casual pictures with family members

For spouse
All IMM forms
My admission letter & Tuition deposit receipt
MBS Statement of account
Passport data page (no travel history)
Marriage certificate

Employment letter
Resume (edited to Canadian style)
Letter of intent (2 pages)
Land documents
Receipt and contract of sale for a flat in both our names
Car documents
Birth cert & ID
Parents/sibling birth certificates/ID
Pictures with family members

If I can do it, anybody can. Just take your time to write a compelling story in your SOP. It is the most important thing after POF. It is how you sell yourself to the VO. It is better you write yourself and get people to help review but if you cannot write it please outsource and fine-tune (I know GCMS writer is good).
I begged people to help review my SOP. I am going for a PGD in Business Analytics after already having PGD in Business Admin. Going with spouse for 1year program without travel history and God did it.

I learnt alot just by being a silent reader here and I also did a lot of research. The motivation to start the journey was gotten from here.
Special thanks to Lianna2020, skull4eva, justmellow, Centennial guy & Ketima who helped review my SOP & answer my questions when I reached out. Thanks to everyone that made this possible

Happy new year to us all

Please i want to apply for myself, spouse and kids. from the research i have done, i have just have to fill the same forms as i filled for myself. (IMM 1294, 5707, 5409) However, from some people's testimony here, i saw other IMM forms filled such as ( 1294, 5713, 5645, 5257). I am officially confused

Landing Gist!!!

To the glory of God, my fourth application was granted on the 30th of November after being refused 3 times and judicial review not granted. I eventually moved on the 29th of December and it was a smooth journey down here when I arrived on Thursday.

My flight to Addis Ababa was 1:40pm but I was already in MMIA around 10am with my fam. Started the whole check-in processing, did the weight thing and my both luggages were a bit above 23kg but normal Naija level, we found a way to sort that out. I had a little difficulty getting my boarding pass at first because my return date exceeded my passport expiry date but it was eventually sorted out too. After having my boarding pass, I went back outside to take pictures with my family and it was an emotional moment but this is what we've all being praying for. I said my goodbye and went back to face the journey ahead of me.

We eventually took off around 2pm, it was a cool 5 hours journey down to Addis Ababa. I landed there, had a layover of about an hour and the long journey began. We took off from Addis Ababa for about 8 hours on air and had a stopover for about an hour in Dublin for refueling. Then we took off again down to Toronto. I really enjoyed the flight, Ethiopian airlines cabin crew sabi take care of person. Those ladies are lovely and quite approachable. I chop, watch movie, press phone tire. Na whenever I happen to doze off dem go carry something come, the lovely lady beside go wake up say dem don bring food if I want or not. Lmao. I no want ke? Sleep go clear for my eyes and I go collect the food chop. Had rice, chicken, cake, bread, biscuit, drank juice, coffee, etc. The long flight down to Toronto was so sweet but omo, e far ooo.

To the glory of God, I arrived in YYZ around 9am Toronto time. We alighted and I quickly went for the study permit stuff. Did a declaration, received my study permit without any questions from the officer. I only presented my Letter of Introduction (the front page) and my passport.

I quickly dashed off to the luggage area. Naso I see my hand luggage first but my 2 major bags con become wahala but I eventually saw both bags. When I sighted the Indians gathering around on a queue one side I sharply asked what's it about and I was told it's for SIN. I waited for about an hour plus and got my SIN over there in the airport. My darling uncle was around to pick me up and from there we went to the store to get my SIM card/number too. We got home to his place in Milton and I was heartily received by my folks. Around evening, we went to the bank to open my account and I sorted that out too same day.

Now I'm in my London, Ontario to begin my classes in Fanshawe college this week. RelaxingEnd and myself got an apartment together prior to coming here. Such a great guy. Omo, but why's no one talking about how tedious it is to get an accomodation? We eventually got a good offer and now our journey in Maple land is about to begin. May the Lord guide our steps in this new sojourn.

I return all glory to God Almighty for making this Canadian dream successful for me because it wasn't an easy feat but with preseverance, patience, faith, encouragement and God's grace, it finally worked out in my favour.

It's a new phase of life and in this new year and years to come in this new land shall be favourable to me. Ilu yi a san mi, a gbe mi lagbara Ase Edumare.

A big Thank you to everyone because I can't seem to talk enough about how much information I got here.

I wish everyone expecting a response a positive reply (PPR) and I wish those still gathering their documents the very best too.

Everything go eventually make sense!

Have a question for the house,

Has anyone here used the NSE (Nigerian Student Express) visa application method? It’s a lot faster and apparently only extra document you need is IELTS.

I still see a lot of students going through the regular visa application method. Is there a reason for this or has the NSE been discontinued?
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 22 by Iykevirgo: 2:36am On Jan 02, 2023
Happy new year everyone! �

OGs in this house, please come to my aid.�

In my last study permit application, I was refused visa due to unsatisfactory assets/insufficient funds for travel. Then I used mpower loan and a deposit of 3m gift deed from an Aunty who was also standing as my sponsor. This was in June.

I'm about to apply again, with my sibling as my sponsor. He runs a business and the tuition fees and living expenses would take half of the balance in his account.

Please, how do I put my best foot forward in this case.
Suggestions from anyone on what and what I need to do/documents to present would be much appreciated.

This would be my 4th trial. Same reason for refusal. After this I dnt think I'll be gingered to try again.�

4th trial within what period? Have you ordered GCMS note? Based on your history with IRCC, it would be better to get the whole picture before suggesting ways to approach your application. Addressing the financial aspect does not mean that they will not refuse the application on another factor. However, I would recommend the following:
Pay at least a semester of tuition fee
Open a GIC account and transfer $10K if you can afford to
Ensure the program is related to your present occupation
Provide sufficient proof of relationship with the sponsor, e.g., pictures taken during family events, proof of communications, evidence of previous support, birth certificates, and highlight his name in any of your application and civil documents.

It is possible to provide the necessary documents but fail to connect the dots when arranging an application. So, the importance of an excellent SOP cannot be overemphasized in your situation. Also, consider using professional assistance; there are Acts, Regulations and Case laws that can be used to argue your case.

Biometrics cost $85 and $170 per person and family, respectively. Kids less than 14 years cannot do biometrics.

I know IOM medical cost is based on the age range

I wish you success in your endeavour

*At immigrations in Canada I was only asked if I brought meat. I said no and I was handed my study permit.
* I applied in July, was approved in Nov.
* Used the new portal cos I did not want to fill those Pdf forms on the old Portal.
* Non accompanying siblings/fam members are good home ties, ensure you upload anything linking you to them. (Pictures, birth certificates etc)
* I can't tell if they will be contacted or not.

Cheers.

Landing gist....

Everything from my admission to my arrival in Canada was my first attempt and I thank God for his grace.

My flight departure time was 1:40pm, it was moved to 1:20pm and I didn't know till I arrived at the airport, thankfully I was there 4 hrs to the time. See crowd (people dey really comot naija o) the place be like island market, noisy, ridiculously small, hot and unorganized.
Got in with fam members who came to see me off and firstly the scanner did not work for several minutes. When it finally worked/scanned my bags, I headed to the airline saying excuse me up n down so I could pass the crowd.
Omo despite all my arrangements the bags were 30kg each instead of 23kg each, na there I begin bargain for the excess luggage and had to settle them before I was able to check-in the bags. From there to immigration and customs, they were very fast, I only submitted my passport/tickets and filled the yellow card.
We left Lagos 40mins late cos everybody wan board at the same time, dem just dey shout *queue up, single line* but e no work. We sha boarded and damn those Ethiopian airline crew ladies fine sha.
My first flight experience and first international flight, I just dey happy dey smile like cow. Food served was actually good just that dem wan use rice choke person. Lunch and dinner na rice every time throughout all the flights.
Flight was good, got to Addis Ababa and mehn come see airport na, large, organized and finally people come queue. We did the usual scanning and routine search and joined the next flight after 2hrs layover. The descending flight at Dublin was the worst, my head wan explode, my belle just dey turning on ein own. It was as though we were falling instead of descending. After an hour of refueling we flew to Toronto from there.
Flight to Toronto was good, we arrived and met the large beautiful airport. See crowd of first time students. I could count the blacks/Nigerians, the rest were Indians/Asians.
We queued, did self declaration (arrive-can was useless) and In a few minutes we were issued our student permits (it's usually the entire duration of the visa/length of program).
Got out of the airport to pick an Uber and it was as though I walked into a deep freezer lol, I immediately wore my winter jacket ontop of the sweater I was wearing, wore my hand gloves and I was fine.

Canada is large and beautiful. Tarred roads, the express had like 10 lanes each. I was debited for the Uber ride immediately I booked unlike naija where you are billed after your ride. The driver Even stopped to buy fuel (in my mind if na naija now u fit stop dey buy fuel when my trip dey read?)

If I could do this myself, I believe anyone can and I pray that everyone still praying and hoping on God will smile at the end.

Good day everyone and Happy New Year to all.

Please is there anyone that can assist me with the contact details of an MP in British Columbia?

My friend urgently requires it as school resumes this week and her visa is yet to come.

I will be grateful if anyone here can help.

Thank you.
