Nigerians have done GIC successfully from Nigeria here.

I need to see the evidence to believe. GIC for international students are for those living legally in countries participating in Student Direct Stream SDS program.

https://www.td.com/ca/en/personal-banking/solutions/student-banking/international-student-gic

The countries are China, India,Brazil, and some other countries. Nigeria is not among. Any Nigerian doing it would have to be a legal resident of these countries. This is what I saw on all Canadian bank website.

If you have evidence to show otherwise, please show me cos I'm interested in doing GIC for my sibling

Lol. You need to see the evidence to believe? As per you doing me a favour? Issorait. You can choose to believe what you want. I have written SOP for someone that was initially refused visa and in the reapplication they did a GIC. The person was from this same nairaland. Also I have read somewhere when a detailed step to get GIC done was stated here using your dorm acct.

Please house I need your advise. So I’ve been working as an HR officer in Nigeria and also a freelancer for a known tech company in the US. I earn over 4kusd monthly and I’ve been saving my remote earnings in Payoneer due to the rate at which the naira is depreciating. I’ve paid my full year tuition (it’s a 1 year program) and I’ve saved over 30k usd.

I am trying to move my funds to my naira account for proof of funds. The thing is if I move my COL and miscellaneous from Payoneer to my naira account as a lump sum and I explain with proof will it be a problem since my naira account doesn’t have much inflows due to my usd savings in Payoneer?

Also moving my converting my funds from Payoneer to Naira directly will make me lose some value due to the rate of Payoneer currently is about 769 naira to a dollar.

I don’t know if I can move it from Payoneer to another account (Geegpay) cos the rate is about 801 naira to a dollar? If I do, Geegpay limits payments to 1 million naira a day. If I move 1m every day for say 15 days and I explain to the VO can this fly?

I don’t know which option to go for.

Please I would appreciate your advise. Please help a sister.

Apologies for my long post.

Thank you.
Please I want to discuss with you

Without flight or not 5M can’t do shi shi, brother. 10k cad maintenance alone with the current rate is about 5.8m naira. Tuition is there, miscellaneous is there…No need of sugarcoating anything.

Please see the procedure for GIC below. You should ensure that the USD in your account was made via transfer and not cash deposit. If the USD in your account was sent deposited via cash deposit, it cannot be transferred. Also note that you can only make a deposit into the GIC account just once.

The total bank charges on the 20CAD GIC was about N55,000.

Procedure to open GIC in Canada

First you go to there website https://pay.cibc.com/ISBO/payment/#/ and create a profile.
1. You are applying for student GIC program

2. Minimum amount is $10000, you can do upto $20000 but bear in mind that this money will only be available on tranches for a period of 8 months or so.

3. Select resident country

4. Do not check the I'd like to pay in canadian dollars box

5.. you will see an amount in USD click on it and continue, that amount will be held for 20 minutes while u fill the form

6. After filling the form you will be contacted by the bank in 1-2 business days with an account number to pay into

7.. proceed to the bank and make the payment from a USD account

NOTE: payment can be only made once before you arrive to Canada. And PAYMENT MUST BE MADE FROM THE SAME NAME ACCOUNT OTHERWISE THEY WILL RETURN YOUR MONEYquote author=Kenn55 post=124585050]

Please don't take it personal, it is not a fight. I'm interested in it because I want to do it. All the banks are talking of SDS eligibility. Do you mind saying which bank was involved and the process? Thanks

Quick question guys/ladies,
Please, I submitted an application and indicated that my children will accompany me. However, the biometrics letter and medical request sent were for me alone. They didn't send any for the kids. Is this normal or did I miss something in the application?
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 22 by AskGod07: 3:26pm On Jul 22, 2023
Queen the children below 14 can’t do biometric in Canada and as per medical report, IRCC will request for their medical when need arise.

Your information is correct based on theory but not entirely correct based on practical.

To be direct, CIBC is the only bank in Canada that is currently providing GIC to non-SDS applicants who are non-residents of Canada.

SDS applicants might submit GIC as a requirement, Nigerians have used it based on choice.

If you are interested in getting one done for your sibling, kindly contact CIBC, they will direct you on how to open the account.

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 22 by AskGod07: 3:41pm On Jul 22, 2023
Your case is straight forward if you can make an adjustment in your next application.

1. Do you submit your payslips that shows your employer deducted tax from income along with your salary account?

2. Make sure you explain every credit in your bank account and explaining the lumps sums (i.e any funds greater than your salary in your account)

The funds you proceed from the sales of landed property you have to show the deed of assignment you did when you sold the land also present the one giving to you when you bought the land.

3 program of study not properly showing link and career progression to what you are currently doing.

In all pray to God to show mercy


Ultimaate:
Please someone should help me on this because my source of fund is from the sale of landed properties and I was refused on 21 June but the money has been on the account for 3 months now

LOE meant for if you have something to explain in details for the VO, what I think you need is SOP you can contact people that help with that.

Hi guys, please i want to ask a question for a friend. He applied with the new portal twice and has been rejected twice. Should he still reapply with the new portal while addressing the issues for which he was rejected or can he apply with the old portal.
If he ends up applying with the old portal, will he have to sign up and start all over?
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 22 by ChiomaMC: 4:25pm On Jul 22, 2023
Please what is the implication of using a 1 year diploma program to travel to Canada? will the person be able to find his/her way around PGWP. He's thinking of applying to other schools after the one year diploma so that he can get a PGWP. What is the possibility? Or will they send the person back home after one year. This person is a graduate and got a 1 year diploma at Can-College, but scared of the outcome after one year study permit. Please experts advice is needed here. Thanks.
Note, he's not buoyant enough for two year programs because of the POF stuff.

Can college don't offer programs eligible for pgwp. So it's not because it's a 1 year diploma program, it's the dli itself not offering programs eligible for pgwp.

He/She either declines from going further ahead with visa visa/admission process for can college and look for a school that's eligible for pgwp or he/she enters Canada and switch to another dli eligible for pgwp pr he/she does 1+1 with the second dli being eligible for pgwp. These are the 3 non risk options to remain in Canada. The risky one is getting a job offer before completion of the program.

Getting a LMiA Job offer would qualify you to apply and get a work permit after study. It's the risky pathway but Can college on their site explained how they help their students with such job offer.
1+1 is applying for a program right there in Canada, get admission and commence the program before your program with can college expires. With this, you apply for study permit extension inside Canada.
