I don’t think it was the best decision for your sister to add a support letter, bank statement etc. Just mentioning her would have been ok, and saying she will help you get on quicker.

Your husband and you should have all the required documents put together to show proof of relationship, assets/business back home, proof of income from the business as well as registration documents showing your names. The sponsorship letter should have come only from your husband to show he is capable to take full responsibilities. In addition, your SOP should be compelling and explanatory.

As someone mentioned earlier, cash flow in your account should be consistent with your kind of income/work and lump sums must be logically explained.

AdesheO:
Hi thank you you for responding. I actually mentioned that my sister is not my sponsor. She just added supporting letter and also provided her reference letter from work as well as bank statement to strengthen my application. Both hubby and I work (we have both had jobs for more than 5 years) and we included reference letters from work as well payslips for 3 months for both of us. Also tuition for the first session has been completely paid to further strengthen the application as well.

This was actually why I added my sister as well because I felt leaving it out was material. I had also done research on caselaw (in situations where visa was rejected based on strong ties) regarding listing a sibling in an application for study permit and judges had in all instances ruled that ties in canada should not be used as a negative evaluation factor. I also wrote a strong SOP as well given that I was a frontline covid healthcare worker the intended course was to build on that.

You did the right thing. VO's sometimes intentionally do these things probably because they think the person will give up and not challenge their decision.
If they deny you again based on ties, go to judicial review, they will likely settle even before the case goes for hearing cos they know they will loose. There are enough legal rulings on that.
I have only 1 sibling still in Nigeria and I want to sponsor to school in the next few months. Since all of us in Canada are citizens except 1 who is still a PR, I know ties will be a problem in her application. So I have spent time researching on JR cases that are decided on ties cos I Know IRCC will likely not issue that visa without a fight. We will be ready for them.

Mybank statement MBS is for the number of months you specify to your bank. It’s what you ask your bank to do that will be done and sent to the embassy, and the ticket will be given/sent to you, which you will attach as part of your POF. IRCC requirement is at least 4 months.

Kenelly:
For normal bank statement, IRCC says at least 4 months so why do 8

If it's for MyBankStatement, then it's 12 months

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 22 by Funformofi: 9:42pm On Jun 14, 2023
Thanks for the response bros.

Option 1 seems fair provided all things are equal. Fear is if IRCC goes back to sleep mode and we wait endlessly for visa

Option 2: Would strong home ties like personal building with a good valuation, study leave from both employers, immediate siblings and parents be enuf as home ties?

It's the duration of study (1 year) that is actually making me look for anyone in the same boat to boost my confidence. I know with 2 years, there are plenty success stories.


ShowYoung:


Option 1.
I suggest that the husband goes alone so as to use the spouse and children as home tie. Immediately he touches down in September, he should submit for spouse and children.

Option 2.
All can apply together but with strong proofs of home ties.

SOWP for the spouse and children should apply for either Visitor Visa if not older than 7 years or Study Permit if older than 3 years.

What makes you begin to look for success stories? There are many success stories.

Why in God's name do you want to apply for a visa to Canada with your brother's wife and kid?

Your brother and his family should apply separately if they want to go to Canada.

This type of combination can only lead to instant denial.

Hello beautiful people,
Thanks for all the good work.

My husband is into Christain ministry. He studied mechanical engineering as his undergraduate program but got called into ministry. He has however over the years worked in different capacities in Christain Ministry and done short term certificate courses in Nigeria, Ghana and Australia.
He has published two books in Christain Ministry.
He is self employed and also does many non profit projects in Christian Ministry.
He wants to go for Masters in Theology now.
We are a family of 7 and intend to travel together

He inherited many real real estates from his late father 7 years ago and some from his late brother 2 years ago.
His major source of income is RENTS from these real estate which runs into millions yearly
Asides deed of lease and conveyance, survey plan. What other documents can we use to prove that rents are paid? Pls note that the tenants are up to or more than 30 individual families, so I don't know wether it makes sense to upload all their invoices, receipts, agreement etc considering the file would be to large

Pls do advise on what document to upload for proof of financial means

Also is 35milliom sufficient for a family of 7 with school fees for 2 years being 21,000CAD?

Is there anyone willing to help us go through our 9 pages SOP?

I will appreciate responses.pls do not just scroll by 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thanks in advance

From my angle, you did everything right, we have similar cases. Yours is your sister, mine is my wife. Many people, even lawyers and immigration consultants that I contacted in canada said my case was impossible, Immigration Consultants in Quora said same thing. I only reapplied so that I can get a rejection letter to claim tuition refund, then guess what? God stood in between...

I added some few new documents anyway, but in all I strongly believe it is God. Why you prepare to reapply, please keep praying and believe in faith, without doubt. There is nothing impossible with God...

You can DM me let me tell you things I added, or check my previous post, you will see documents I submitted. I will advise against JR, its not necessary. Get the gmcs, pray and reapply...

I don’t think this is correct information. MyBankStatement is simply the form of statement sent digitally to the embassy so you don’t need to upload bulky pages of scanned bank statements.

I used it for my ward, a 5 month period. She is Canada since last year.
My niece just used it for a 4 month period.. submitted her application May 25th, did her biometrics June 1st, got her PPR June 12, 2023.

A lot of other people have used it on the platform.

Please applicants with bulky pages of Statement of accounts is advisable you use MBS.

Does Nigerian Student Express still work? people with out 12 months statements or IELTS have been getting PPR in 2-3weeks.

Hi everyone I am new to this post but came across while researching.

I received a visa denial from IRCC yesterday morning. Application was submitted May 28th and biometrics was given 8th of June and rejection received 13th of June.

The reasons cited were
i) significant family ties in canada (my sister and her husband and kids are permanent residents in canada for 2 years. However the rest of my family is here in Nigeria. I submitted her bank statements and reference letter from work as I will be staying with her. She owns her own home and has a very good income. I will also be going without my husband and 14 months old son which I believe are ties to Nigeria. Including my brothers and parents (my mum has a Canadian TRV)

ii) your assets and financial situation are insufficient to support the stated purpose of travel. (This i couldn’t understand as my bank statement submitted has a closing balance of a little 29 million Naira with school fees for the first session fully paid. My course is a one year course in digital health as I am an healthcare worker. I also submitted by husbands bank statements and reference letters from work for both of us.

I used an IRCC registered agent who is also quite upset at the visa application result and is advising we request a judicial review. I will really appreciate your advice as I am quite confused. I have ordered my GCMS notes as of this morning. But would really appreciate any insights of anyone has experience this and how they overturned it. Thank you.
Sorry about your refusal.
I reckon with most of the suggestions and responses you have been given.

Leave out sister’s SOA n docs.

The account is it yours or hubby’s?. If yours, then your self sponsored, hubby doesn’t have to give you a sponsorship letter, a consent letter saying he is in support of your studies, should suffice.

Include a letter of explanation on your SOA on how saved the funds especially if the savings was amassed in a short time in comparison to your income.
In you SOP, do some adjustments on the proof of funds, study goals and home ties sections

The 1st session tuition was it paid from your account? Show proof of that if possible.

We hear the free CBSA notes come out faster than GCMS notes, you may want to try that.

I wish you the best in your next application.

IRCC has its own exchange rate. POF is not calculated at our rates.

I stand to be corrected.

MBS is not for Student Express Stream alone. In fact it’s for authenticity sake and clarity. The fact that your bank communicates with the embassy directly makes it easily verified. My wife and children submitted my personal savings bank account MBS ticket of 5 months as part of POF for their study visas late last year. They were not on student express stream.

I disagree with you on this. My younger brother just got his study visa approved recently, do note that I am currently in Canada with my husband and I came with a study permit and now on pgwp and it was stated in my brother's application. He clearly stated this in his application "that I and my husband were his only family in Canada"


Zane2point4:


Someone have meticulously answered the fund aspect for you and i beleive him,i think theres a lump sum in the acct without any explanation!

Buh the main issue is the ties you’ve in canada.
If you hv made enough research or watch u tube videos even in nairaland ,you shldnt hv even pointed out you have sister in canada,that is shooting yourself in the foot.

Thirdly many agents are just thrash, mine was directly responsible for my first denial! He just did nonsense sop and document and submitted!

Second time i used my hand and made research and did the second application without gcm note and still got!
