So the thing is, I recently finished nysc and I just started working , I was adviced not to show my personal account but now , my dad wants to send me money for part of living expenses and my brother also wants to do so.

who should send me the money and how should I explain? Should I use a gift deed from my brother or have the company send me money into my account or I should explain it in my SOP?.

Please anyone and everyone, please I really need help with this please.

Some SOP tips that I used. They might come handy. I got my PPR in 19 days.

First, start with an intro : My name is xxxx, and I am writing in respect to my application for a Canadian study visa to pursue a xxxx at xxxx University.

Write a summary of your personal background. : State your name, spouse n kids (if any), siblings and parents. Please list their full name. You may also want to include the jobs they do.

Summarize your academic background : Please summarize every of your academic qualifications, including short courses, certifications, etc.

Summarize your professional background : Summarize every job experience listed in your cv/resume. Please list volunteering experiences too.

Write the reason for wanting to study course of choice : In this case, you might want to find a connection between your educational and professional experience, and then state it. In my case, I searched online and saw a major issue stated by the fed govt, and the issue was linked to my course of study. I stated this issue, wrote how this course will help mitigate this issue, and in turn, we would have a better Nigeria. I also copied the link to the news on punch website, and inserted it into my SOP.

Reason for studying in Canaaada : Truthfully, there was no university in Nigeria that offered the course I wanted to study, so I stated that. I made utmost research on this.

Finance : Please do a table of your funds in Naira, and then convert it to CAD. List the funds in both Naira and cad. Also list where each fund comes from. Include sponsorship, bank statement, savings, gist deed, property valuations etc

Draw a table for your expenses : Explain how you intend to spend the money (insurance, medicals, bus pass, etc)

Lump sum explanation : Explain every lump sum in details.

List every travel status : if you have ever been refused visa into any country, if you have/have had an express entry status, etc.

Conclusion : You can include your resumption date and appeal for a speedy application consideration. Also state an assurance that you will conduct yourself well, and adhere to the rules and regulations.

Underneath, do a comprehensive list of your supporting documents so that they can understand when checking. Eg

Enclosed documents

LOA
B.sc cert &transcripts
Xxxx certification
Pictures with parents and siblings
Picture at work
House doc etc.

Please be neat, use proper grammar, punctuations and paragraphs.

Proper paragraphs are very important. It makes it easy to read.

SOP shouldn’t bore the reader. 3-4 pages max. You can have less than that. (A friend’s SOP was just about 10 lines and was approved). Font size should be around 9 or 10. Please also make use of an official and professional font type.

Pray oh, pray for grace. If you are tired, you can switch to just singing praises. Remember that the walls of Jericho fell down flat when the children of God were praising the Lord.

Never underestimate the power of praises and thanksgiving.

Good afternoon Gurus,

Please when providing documentation to explain source of funds received as support from husband and sister, what documents can one show aside their bank statement?

Hello everyone, I need assistance from study visa experts in the house.

I've been offered admission in two schools;
1. Red river Polytechnic, winnipeg - science laboratory technology 2 years (my second choice)
2 Red Deer Polytechnic, Alberta - Medical Laboratory assistant certificate 1 year (my first choice) (cheaper fees)

I have a BSc in Microbiology and a year experience as a medical laboratory assistant (three years ago)

Now I'm confused as to which to go with as per which would give me a higher chance of visa approval (2yr diploma vs 1yr certificate);
I intend to travel with my spouse and 2yr old kid and I have enough proof of funds for either schools. Also, Which of them would be easier to get PPR with?

Thanks

After you've completed your biometrics for a study application, the time it takes to receive feedback can vary. Generally, it can take several weeks to a few months for the application to be processed and for you to receive a response. The exact timeline depends on various factors, such as the process of verifying your documents and the workload of the immigration authorities.

I understand that waiting for a response can be nerve-wracking, but try to stay positive and patient.

Hi yall,
I'm a male looking for a room near humber college etobicoke north to be shared, I'm coming in this December
Any lead would be appreciated.

The email you send to them was to get update on your application right?

Have they made decision on your application yet?

Frankrobbn1:
I can help clarify the concept of a lump sum for you. A lump sum is a single, large payment or amount of money that is received all at once, rather than in smaller installments over time. It's like getting a big chunk of money in one go.

Now, when it comes to explaining a lump sum, it depends on the context. Generally, if you receive a large sum of money, especially if it's out of the ordinary or unexpected, it's a good idea to explain the source of that money. This is to ensure transparency and to comply with any financial regulations or requirements.

So, if your account has been consistently receiving large sums like 5 million, it's still a good idea to provide an explanation for the source of those funds and the nature of what you do for a living that amounts to such funds. It helps to demonstrate that the money is legitimate and can be accounted for.

I hope that clears things up for you! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask here!

Hello….please if you are granted your Canada study visa and you are in Canada right…can you apply for a US visitor visa while you are in Canada? And if so, will they allow you to do the interview in Canada.

Frankrobbn1:
If you're granted a Canada study visa and you're in Canada, you can apply for a US visitor visa. However, the interview for the US visitor visa typically needs to be done at a US embassy or consulate outside of Canada. You'll need to schedule an appointment at the nearest US embassy or consulate in a country where you have legal entry. Keep in mind that the requirements and procedures for obtaining a US visitor visa may vary, so it's always a good idea to check with the specific embassy or consulate for the most up-to-date information. Good luck with your visa applications! 🌟

Good morning, please who knows how much is the tuition deposit always required by Fashawe College

As a commercial student, you can definitely study computer science or other tech courses in Canada. However, the specific requirements for admission may vary depending on the institution you're applying to.

In terms of the WAEC certificate, it is accepted by Canadian institutions, but it's best to check with the individual universities or colleges you're interested in. They will have the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding their admission requirements for international students.

When it comes to finding the cheapest institution to study tech courses in Canada, tuition fees can vary depending on the province and the specific program. Generally, public colleges tend to have lower tuition fees compared to private universities. Some affordable options to consider are community colleges like Selkirk College, Seneca College, Centennial College, or Sheridan College.

Remember to research and compare the tuition fees, scholarships, and financial aid options available at different institutions. It's also important to consider other factors such as location, program reputation, and student support services.

I hope this helps! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask here.

I totally understand your concern about the study gap for your wife. The good news is that study gaps are quite common, and Canadian officers take various factors into consideration during the application process. They understand that life happens and people take breaks for different reasons.

In your wife's case, she has a solid explanation for her study gap. She was busy with her NYSC, job search, personal business, raising your adorable baby girl, and establishing stability in her life. These experiences can actually be seen as valuable life skills that she can bring to her studies in Canada.

When applying, it's important to highlight these experiences and how they have contributed to her personal growth and readiness for further education. Emphasize her determination and commitment to pursuing her studies now that she's in a stable position to do so.

Remember, each application is evaluated on a case-by-case basis, and visa officers value diversity and unique life experiences. So, don't worry too much, my friend! Just make sure to present a strong application that showcases your wife's motivation, skills, and readiness for the program she's interested in.

If you need any further assistance or have more questions, feel free to ask here. Good luck to both of you on this exciting journey!
