Ogidigan1:
PPR ALERT!!! (Long post)
MY PROFILE:
I am a 40-year old self-sponsored applicant.
Over 12 years experience in oil & gas engineering.
Sources of fund: Full time employment in oil and gas engineering + Private business + Real estate.
I applied alone (used immediate family members as home ties).
Other home ties: Study leave approval + landed property and buildings + personal business + cars + pension.
Travel history : 3 African countries + 1 middle east country.
DLI: Uottawa (Masters prog).
Study plan: career advancement from Snr. Engineer to Engineering manager (Note: my 1st degree was in engineering).
1st APPLICATION:
1st application submitted June 13th 2022.
Biometrics: June 16th 2022.
Upfront medicals: July 29th , 2022.
POF: $48,000CAD in personal savings account + Paid 1st year full tuition of $19,000 CAD and 10,000CAD GIC.
1st application refused 19th Oct 2022.
Ordered CBSA and GCMS notes: 25th October 2022.
Refusal reasons: (1.) Insufficient documentation for source of funds as earnings were not commensurate with declared savings. (2.) proposed study not a reasonable expense given the high cost of intl studies and funds available.
2nd APPLICATION:
2nd application submitted 1st Dec 2022.
POF: $71,000CAD in personal savings account + Paid 1st year full tuition of $19,000 CAD and 10,000CAD GIC.
HOW I ADDRESSED MY PREVIOUS REFUSAL: Honestly, the VO was correct about the fact that my monthly earnings were not commensurate with savings shown in my account. This was because a lump sum payment for a property sold in 2020 was made into my bank account (over N10m). I attached an excerpt of bank statement showing the transaction date, deed of transfer and land survey docs. I also attached some copies of my previous pay slips and excerpts of bank statement showing salaries and benefits from my previous employers. I also explained my company's plan for expansion and how some employees (including me) have been lined-up for impending management positions. I explained how my salary would triple when I eventually clinch the management opportunity.
GHOST UPDATES: 20th January 2023, 24th January 2023 and 1st February 2023.
Eligibility review started 20th Jan 2023.
Medical passed Feb 8th 2023.
PPR DROPPED FEB 8TH 2023.
DOCUMENTS SUBMITTED (2ND APPLICATION):
LOE (2 pages only) (Straight to the point)
Previous and current job offer letters.
Previous and current payslips and excerpts of bank statements showing some previous and current salaries shown on attached payslips.
Deed of transfer showing landed property sold for NGN15m to a client.
Business registration docs.
Business premises photos.
Family pics.
Wedding pics.
birth certs.
Our intl passports.
Study leave approval letter.
B.eng cert and transcript.

Scanned copies of bank statements + MBS.
Stanbic IBTC Pension reference letter showing pension of over 10m.
Vehicle documents and pics worth N8m and N5.5m.
Pics of buildings and deed of transfer for landed property.

I do not want to bore you with too many stories. However, these were the main documents submitted during my application.

SP application nor be by muscle...Na baba God get power...if you like do all the packaging in the world, if it's not your turn, it's not your turn.

But don't forget, visa officers always want to see the following items:

1. Good home ties (e.g wife, children, siblings, parents, personal business, landed property, study leave approval letter etc.).

2. Sufficient and available funding (not fixed deposit or pension).

3. Show sufficient documentation for source of fund.

4. Good study plan. 1 or 2 page SOP/LOE. Explain the benefits of proposed program. Explain why paying the cost of proposed program would be a reasonable expense considering the high cost of intl studies. Show career progression. Get a good convincing story.

5. Straight fwd application.

6. Pay 1st year full tuition (it will boost your chances). Ensure the total amount of money required to complete the proposed program is readily available (plus some extra money).
Finally, I sincerely wish to thank everyone for their contributions on this thread.
Dear Uottawa Fall 2023 folks, pls lets connect.

All glory be to God! See you'all in Canada.

Congratulations. kindly check your DM sir

My husband wants me to go study in Canada as it's the new development to get PR since age has disqualified us from other options to get PR.

He met with an agent from MAPLE comsult and he has paid for them to help me wt the process of admission and visa.
He suggested capebreton university for me; occupational health therapy.
I have made my own little research on this sch and the reviews are bad.
I read on Facebook that there is no job in Sydney and housing is expensive and limited .
Alot of people here on nairaland are not choosing the sch...Y??


I also read on Facebook that capebreton university won't REFUND your money if you are not granted visa and that they are on strike blah blah...
Please I don't want to make a mistake that I will regret, pls you gurus should pls come to my aid.

Thanks for responding
I used DHL one-way courier to submit my passport. If I do a walk-in to collect my passport what do I need to present to show that I am the owner?

I would appreciate answer from anyone

When you used the DHL one-way courier, how did you send the receipt and the address you want them to deliver? My mother just got an email that her decision envelop is ready for pick up and in-person collection is not allowed for now till further notice, she submitted to Vfs Abuja but lives in Benin.

RUN FAST ! RUN FAR from that school
Target schools in the city that have refund policy
Every province proffers pr pathway. In my opinion the Atlantic province is the easiest and fastest.
Any prog u go make sure it’s in line with your educational background and work experience.
Personally, I will never trust anyone that advices me to go to CBU, especially someone that is a professional. It’s pure wickedness and clearly they don’t have ur best interest.

Thank you so much for your response.
Honestly I don't know anything about Canada or schools in Canada. So, I don't even know how to make a good choice and that was the reason my husband consulted maple; his friend told him about them.
I wouldn't mind if you or any guru on nairaland can guide me on how to make a good choice of college and course.
