Honestly, if I were the embassy, I'll also reject his application. Can he tell us in truth that he won't stay back in Canada? His going for a visit alone? Why's the wife not going with him? It's a straight decline.

Are you saying a married man or woman can’t apply for a visa individually or travel alone?

10. A detail purpose of travel stating all the interesting places i will visit.

i have plans to reapply again i want the house to suggest the missing document i am omitting in my application.


I believe this is just a situation of misunderstanding either intentional, legal or otherwise where the vo is confused as to how you have access to N9m which has not been linked or explained as to how it fits with your claimed employment/business.
Whereby you need to restructure the money to fit receipts, salary paystubs, contract payments etc with affidavits so the vo knows the money belongs to you and not borrowed and that its your savings accumulated from either your salary, business dealings etc etc.
So basically, link that money to your business/employment receipts. Voila.

Meanwhile, pls is it possible for a family to use a single portal after having used separate ones.
We used separate portal last time. We lost the sign in password and they sent us request to submit passport oo until they denied us. We have kids now and we want to all reapply, can we all use one portal?

Collect your Canada visit visa first on your passport grin then apply for study permit thereafter, i.e. if you choose to. No consequences attached to anything

On how to go go about it, go to Canada Study Visa nairaland thread or OJC Study route on telegram.

Meanwhile, could you please share your timeline for your visit visa?

Thank you

I don’t think you will see anyone who would be able to help.

Go buy data, and go online to do the search yourself.

Scholarship is not granted to alleviate the financial burden of applicants, its granted to promote and uphold academic excellence.
And i insist it help one's application to show bank statements (and who is talking
about substantial bank?), especially if you are going for masters or phd. Shey na mama thank you, the person dey chop for nigeria?

The person will probably put their work history in their app. Abi shey na free you dey work?

Employment and good paying job without even $2k cad in your bank? Or property worth millions of naira and no bank statement?

Fully funded scholarship only covers the financial aspect of your education. They are other parts the VO will also look to make their decisions. And 80% if not more is based on home ties, as more than 90% of visa rejection is based on this statement "AM NOT CONVINCED YOU WILL LEAVE CANADA AFTER YOUR STUDY".

No 2 visa case are the same, do whatever you think will make your application stronger.

orjohn24:


Absolutely, scholarships vary, and some fully funded ones, supported by the government or universities, don't require personal bank statements. People I know have successfully obtained visas by emphasizing academic excellence and financial need in their SOPs, stemming from their challenging parental financial backgrounds. It appears contradictory for visa officers to demand substantial bank accounts when the full funded scholarship is specifically granted to alleviate the financial burden of applicants in difficult situations with expectional academic talent.

Whether you send a message or not, If you applied in August or September last year and your application is still pending, the likelihood that you will get a decision notice before the month of February runs out is very high.

She is a student in canada and inviting her children to canada, so their travel history no matter and they can stay and attend school depending on the age of the children if she wants based on her study permit validity!
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Madukachase: 9:44pm On Feb 12
Some ppl here will just be jumping and replying to post aimlessly. Typing rubbish. Them done turn visa officers or visa guru.

So because one spouse or parent is a student in canada it is automatic visa approval to their family members? (There are family members of Canadian citizens getting visa rejection, how much more student)

Canada visa bonanza has ended. Lol. But only this year on this thread we have seen 3 - 5 visa approval.

If you don't know what to say shut the f**k up!

Take or quote me anywhere, you don't need a travel history to visit any country. You only need a good profile, and over 70% boils down to convincing the VO you will return back to your home country.

IF ALL THE BETTER COUNTRIES DEY FIND TRAVEL HISTORY, SHEY NA ANGOLA OR GHANA TRAVEL HISTORY YOU WON USE CONVINCE THEM?

Director Maduka,
Good evening.
I thought i should not reply, but i did not have a choice, as it stands, I also want to establish some point.

We are all here to learn(Even though your post was not directed at me, I can make some inputs, if you would allow for that)

Look at the bolded, you see those two things are key for successful visa applications.

Sometimes, it is not even your account balance. I have received visas with 700k and 400k account balance, then again, the document was solid and the porfolio was good as perceived by the VO.

Do not forget, no one has a mastery or magic wand for visa applications, as the consular or visa officer has a final say.

Good portfolio, but again a good travel history sometimes or maybe all the time matters.

Above all, if you are applying for visas, which i feel it is critical to note, avoid most common mistakes as numbered below;

1. Document forgery
2. Incoherent information's or data.
3. Not uploaded records on public platforms
4. Falsification of information's, not been truthful
5. Going against the standard as you are required for that application by the embassy(If they tell you use black pen, use black) Following instructions is key.
6. Applying to the wrong visa category

As listed, these mistakes or acts are very common amongst visa applicants, which is very much undeniable, even when many always claim or want to be seen as though, everything was perfect on their applications.
Visa officers have no job than to look for errors on your applications, so you dont give them chance or opportunity for that.

Inconclusion, soft and light words are sometimes preferred for responses , so the recipent can grab the message.
The majority of people who apply for visas on these platforms are either doing it for the first time or had never had the exposure.

A proper diagnosis of the subject matter will aid the tone for the discuss.

Just to add to this, a lady who shared her refusal letter a few pages back was refused for lack of travel history as part of one of the three or four reasons she was refused.
And it said - “Based on your travel history, I am not convinced that you will leave Canada at the end of your temporary resident status, as required by paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR”.

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by hunee: 11:10pm On Feb 12
Fact, visa approvals are considered on a number of things, one of them is travel history, so if you are lucky to be issued a visa first time, with no travel history, it is rare.
I read and see many well documented applications, even with travel history too, they get rejected, especially for Schengen visa applicants(Frequent travelers). These happens a lot.
The dynamism of these process if you have been into it for a while is the ability to understand the psyche of visa officers and maneuvering the tides to present a convincing application.

This i believe will make you succeed in your visa applications more , and more again.
