PPR DON SHOW MEHHHHN

Meke ona no vess abeg ... It came out a while ago but i've been quite busy. Wanted it to be as detailed as possible to help y'all for the sake of reference. Thank God for giving me this, I consider it a special gift. I initially intended on using an agent because of his proclaimed success rate. I con reason am, which agent go tell you about their win-to-loss ratio? So, after having a holistic discussion with him about Visa Applications in general ... I figured ... hey ... This isn't really rocket science, I can do this. And so, everything from start to finish was done BY MYSELF. Here's my timeline below.

*Timeline*
School Application 12th Dec 2022
Admission 15th Dec 2022 (Centennial College)
LOA came 3rd Feb (came in late cus Dem go carry my money give another student, I give dem wahala no be chais until dem release am)
Visa Application Submitted 17th Feb
Biometrics 22nd Feb (The way the guy that attended to me here kept congratulating me. At this stage IRCC nvr even touch my application. I con dey wonder )
Request for Medical Examination 24th March
Medicals done 17th April
Medicals updated to passed 26th April
PPR dropped 28th April

*After the medicals (Q-life family Clinic Lagos), I followed up with Q-life to find out when they had uploaded my Medicals. When they confirmed this, I sent a mail to the ircc nairobi mail and and about an hour later, medical updated to pass. Same goes for the PPR, when I saw nothing was happening 2 days later, I sent a mail to nairobi again informing them that my medical has been updated to passed and then, I kid you not ... 5 mins later I received 2 mails "A message about your application is waiting for you.", checked the portal and PPR was sitting peacefully waiting for yours truly. Lass lass, na God get power.

I split my documents into 2 pdf's. the first was for financial related documents, and the second was for any other document. Because of this split, I didn't have too hard a time in compressing my documents. As for the compression, documents that I felt ranked higher in importance, I did little to no compression, while documents that ranked lower, I brutally compressed them.

MikePaulGh:
Please @justwise and other gurus in the house can you advice me?

I have my LOA for January admission but packaging my POF is my challenge. I can't explain the bulk into my account (about 10m) because it is borrowed. I have another account I have about 5m which is ok. My intention now is for me to wait till Sept. before I submit my application so I can print 4 months statement starting from this May (the money hit my account in April).

Kindly advice, will it be too late waiting till 1st week in September to submit?

@bullstriker
@bamzz
@ketima

Is the money from a individual account or company? If company what kind of company?

Got PPR on the 19th after two refusals.


To be honest, the third application was to test and to know on time if taxes were mandatory to get an application approved, I knew for sure if the application came back refused, I would need to settle taxes and re-apply. Halleluyah! It came back with PPR. Stamped passport is on its way back to me via courier! LOI has dropped too. Winnipeg ya!

I thank bobomaigida, bullstriker, johnstan, halima for their inputs! Goodluck to everyone applying, it will end in praise!

Congratulations, may Canada favour you.

Good day House!

Sadly, my application was refused on the 29th of March on the basis of insufficient fund and lump sum amount paid into my account by my organization as I clearly stated in my SOP that my organization was sponsoring me.

Now I have my POF and want to reapply stating self sponsorship. Do I still need to attach the old POF alongside this new one or just go ahead with a fresh application?

Please help!

Go ahead with the fresh one.

sudo1986:
Hello guys, I have a question.
What if I don't have any work in Nigeria, and I am going to use my wife and son as my home tie, will I be able to bring my wife through Open Work Permit latter?
I actually stated in my SOP under the home ties that I have a wife, son, and landed a property.

Hope this wouldn't be a reg flag for her when I want to bring her through SOWP.
It won’t be a red flag. Go ahead with ur application

I am going on a fully funded PhD program though.

Go ahead with ur application it will not be a 🚩

35k for affidavit? Weyin happen? Please do your thing personally, forget plug or no plug.

Got PPR on the 19th after two refusals.

First application: Nov. 5, 2022; POF document (38 Pages)
Presented funds for only first year tuition / living expenses, explained I make enough to have the funds for the second year before school resumes in September. Came back refused Jan. 31st (Two reasons: Insufficient finance and assets / full tuition unpaid).

I listed source of funds as my B2B business and crypto. I gave mostly written statements about my income and not much or rather not enough evidence to back up these statements, hence the refusal.

Ordered GCMS, VO had concerns with:

Lump sums - Starting balance was 900K, sold digital assets within a month and topped up to 10.9M, VO was concerned about this, especially when they did not understand the source.

Source of funds - No payslips, no tax income slip, not enough evidence of work, salaries etc.

Tuition Payment: - VO suggested to make full first year tuition.


Second application: March 15th, 2023: POF document (44 Pages)

Before first refusal came, I had spent 70% of POF in December on iPhones to be sold, instead of the funds to just be in the account. (How naive of me to think my first application was perfect and no refusal in sight). I had to reluctantly sell more of my digital currencies . I also paid full first year tuition as suggested by VO.

Presented funds for two years tuition / living expenses plus misc, provided detailed information about the digital currency and the trail of funds from blockchain to tradfi account. Did not provide much info regarding B2B offline business (Thought since majority of POF came from crypto, there wasn’t much use for info about my offline business). Application came back refused March 21st (One reason - Insufficient finance and assets). Ordered GCMS, it has not arrived till date.


Third application: April 4th, 2023; PPR April 19th. POF document (243 pages!) Mo fun won tan!

Was expecting to receive GCMS for second application on April 25th. But I couldn’t wait because of time constraints. I made two deductions from the refusal, either IRCC does not accept funds from crypto as POF or my application needs to be substantiated with a legal business profile.

I did a lot of tinkering here, did extensive research on if taxes were mandatory to get an application approved and confirmed that it only helps to prove that the company exists and makes enough money legally. I asked a tax consultant for my estimated tax (Omo! Wahala Wahala Wahala).

So I looked for ways to prove that my company exists and makes enough money legally. I provided payment dashboard from all payment processors showing how much company has received in payments since inception. Showed partner onboarding, funding payments, supplier details etc. Provided Skype support group screenshots, history of transactions, one year bank statement confirming the inflow from all payment processors, and lastly (na this one hard pass), I became an accountant LOL. Researched how to create a profit and loss statement, income statement etc. Used records in my book-keeping to create an income statement, showing the monthly earnings. Added an affidavit of return, juggled my SOP (More formal and maintained consistency), added a church recommendation / ambassadorship certificate.

Bumped up my living expenses from $10KCAD to $15KCAD

To be honest, the third application was to test and to know on time if taxes were mandatory to get an application approved, I knew for sure if the application came back refused, I would need to settle taxes and re-apply. Halleluyah! It came back with PPR. Stamped passport is on its way back to me via courier! LOI has dropped too. Winnipeg ya!

I thank bobomaigida, bullstriker, johnstan, olokings (proper ginger man), thesoj, halima for their inputs! Goodluck to everyone applying, it will end in praise!

Bro, can I relate to you? I want to put in an application from outside Nigeria. I am worried about the denial due to home ties. Please, I will send you a message. I just needed some guidance. Thanks

Biko make una help your guy answer this question o

hardeyeanc:
Good Morning boss,
Please I need to ask some questions about this Niagara college, I don't know if u or any other guru in the house can be of help. I'm getting confused here.

1. Does Niagara college offer PGWP?

2. Is it a must u pay all the first semester tuition fee? If NO how much is their tuition deposit for you to get LOA?

3. I intend study IBM which is related to my degree because I studied entrepreneurship and business mgt but IBM is a year course and from what I've been reading so far, it's better one go for 2 years program in other to get 3yrs PGWP.

4. Does the college accept payment in installments for international students? .

5. I got an info dt New Brunswick Community College is cheap and one can easily get a PR, plus their tuition deposit is just 500 CAD, what's you guys take on this compare to all Niagara college?

Let me stop here for now, make I no ask too much question but I still have many questions.

CC: all gurus in the house...it will definitely be a success story for us all

what can i study for post graduate studies and what program can i apply for considering the fact that i have an HND Degree in Mining Engineering but i have been working in Transport and logistics field with 8yrs work experience. I have a cgpa of 2.75 of 5.0, i need an advice on courses i can apply for, programs i can apply to and schools to look out for. if possible i'll like to go in for sept 2023 intake
