Can you now see that your ChatGPT Will eventually throw you off balance if you rely on it 100% because it may be giving you answers related to Chinese students. Go and re-read my answers because you seem to be confused the way i used the permanent issuing of your study visa. As it stands you can be turn back at Canada POE thats just the summary but i pray you are successful in your endeavours.
there's nothing like permanent study permit. Your study permit expires 90days after your program completion.

And that study permit is issued in Canada when you arrive.

Try and check the meaning of the word permanent

I didn't need ChatGPT to know what is permanent study permit.

As an international student you are a temporary immigrant.

So tell me how a temporary immigrant will will issued a permanent study permit.

Una go com here the give half baked information.

Nothing like permanent study permit for Canada.

You are issued a study permit that expires 90days after your program completion or expires the same date with your international passport. Which ever comes first.

But you just told us that ChatGPT is the machine or tool that is dictating your life . Go and read it yourself.

Back to your lesson. The visa you are using to travel to Canada is called temporary travel/visit visa or temporary travel card. When you passed the POE vetting that is when you get the permanent study visa...meaning the main official student visa. If the grammar is confusing you i think i have lectured you right now.

Stop cut and paste of people's visa application credentials on Nairaland. You are not processing anything. Stop fooling yourself.

Oga u said permanent study permit. Now u don shift to permanent study visa.
I hope you know that there is a difference between visa and study permit?
Visa allows you entry to a country while study permit allows you to school in that country.
Once again, there is nothing like 'permanent' for visa or study permit.

You saying I cut people's application portal to post. I will answer that question 22nd Aug. For now enjoy your time with your permanent study permit and permanent visa.

My student @Abel Abdul are you in the class ? Study visa is what you get from Nigeria in order to travel and land in Canada. Then after the POE clears you they will issue you study permit. In order word both phrases are interchangeable.

Mind you what are you trying to proof to Nairalanders? And you claim you are not an agent yourself ? Your tactics is to prepare the foundation for people to start asking you how did you do it by trying to prove the best but you have turned yourself to a clown. Too know have exposed you that you have been posting imaginary Canada study visa updates.

You did not answer my questions. And this would be my last respond to you till 22nd.

What is permanent study permit? What is permanent visa?
Define the word 'permanent'.

Answer those questions we want to learn.

PhdCloakRoom please sir let's not derail the thread. 22nd Aug I have a lot to prove. Initially I planned writing my experience but I will not write again. I will make a video and post here. 22nd is by the corner.

For now let's keep it like that. Let's stop derailing. Thank you sir I really appreciate. No derailing please...

Hi everyone please I need advice. I'm a computer science graduate with a CGPA of around 2.76, I have 3 years professional experience as a Cloud Engineer. Please who can suggest with schools I can apply to or programs.

Btw can I get masters program with the above CGPA or is it just diplomas I can get?
It depends on what you want but IMO if you already have a bachelor's degree, you should consider applying for a master's program. The reason is that master's and PhD students are not subject to the current study permit cap, so the probability of getting a visa is generally higher if all other things are good and in place... but do not rule out diploma

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/notices/2025-provincial-territorial-allocations-under-international-student-cap.html

With a Second Class Upper, it is definitely possible to gain admission into a master's program. However, you may need to search a bit more than the average 2:1 applicant.

If you package your application well by highlighting your work experience and any relevant certifications even something as small as MS Azure Fundamentals you can improve your chances highly

Some universities also place more emphasis on your performance during the last two years of your undergraduate degree, along with your work experience, when assessing applications

College is always a good option, but I also want you to keep this in mind. If you apply to both a college (for a postgraduate diploma) and a university (for a master's degree), the college will usually issue an admission offer much faster Many people end up accepting the first offer they receive because the school encourages them to pay the tuition deposit quickly

A Master's in Computer Science is highly competitive. It may be better to focus on course-based master's programs in Computer Science, Information Technology, or Applied computing or Information Systems. In my opinion, course-based programs are the best route in your case.

A master's degree can also give you more points in the long run if you eventually apply for permanent residence, so it's something worth considering... and trust me you will want all the points when the time comes

Do not be discouraged Many people with a Second Class Upper have successfully gained admission into master's programs, so it is absolutely possible. To maximize your chances if I was in your shoe, I would focus on course based Masters programs.

Someone else may be able to recommend specific universities, for 2.2 Applicant but my advice is to focus on these points I mentioned early

Thank you so much for your elaborate response. With your advice I have this school and course in mind:

https://www.mun.ca/become/graduate/programs-and-courses/artificial-intelligence/

I contacted them with my same concern; the attached is the email they sent:

So the part that says "The online application also allows you to explain any special circumstances that put your academic performance in perspective. " is in line with what you say.

And to note, I have AWS and Google professional certification and Kubernetes certification.

So please this chosen school and course is good to go right?

But what IRCC placed on passport before travelling as international student is not even study visa,you are not correct that is TRV:Temporary resident visa(counterfoil)
And Canada don't issue study visa they issue study permit grin grin And TRV can't issue study permit, it is with letter of introduction that issues study permit together with LOA!!

😂😂 There is no such thing as a "permanent study permit." It's simply called a study permit, and it's not the same as permanent residence (PR).

Before trying to teach others, make sure you're using the correct immigration terms. Confidence is good, but accuracy is even better.
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by ATTAHDYE(m): 12:13pm On Jun 27
Hello,

The best option open for you is to seek for an admission in to a college for a Post Graduate Diploma, you do not have the requirements for a direct Masters since you graduated with a 2.2.

It was also clearly stated in the email email you attached, the 2.75/4.0 they are asking for is equivalent to our 3.5/5.0 grading system.

With your first degree, experience and certifications you will be able to get a college.

All the best

Hi everyone, I just noticed my passport is expiry April 2027 and the school program I am applying resumes on May 2027.

Can I go ahead and apply for the program while I work on renewing my passport? or I should renew my passport before I apply for the program?

Renew your passport first, as your passport eligibility should be within the duration of your program. Since the program starts in May 2027, you can do an express renewal which should be less than 2 weeks. Then you can use it to apply to be on the safer side.

Go ahead and apply for the program while you start working on renewing your travel passport. You may not be able to renew your travel passport until about 3 months before expiration (stand to be corrected on this) and as of today your passport still have more than 6 months to go.

Aside of the above your new passport will still carry your old passport number so its a continuation that wont halt your visa process.

Nice! You are on the right track by doing your own personal research I also have one of the certifications you mentioned, plus another one that you didn't mention.

You are the one that will be doing the school so if you think your head can carry it why not the course is still very related to Computer science

Yes, the course and program are very good, and Memorial University is also an excellent school, especially in terms of affordability. The only challenge is the admission requirement.

Applicants are normally expected to hold a minimum Second-Class Upper degree (or at least a 75% overall average). It's still possible to gain admission if you package your application well, but I would say your chances are about 50/50.

If you really want a masters program which with your result its going to be hard What some people do, if you have the financial means, is to apply to two schools one university and one college.

As we all know, colleges usually process applications and offer admission much faster. So, if you are willing to take a chance,

If you can, apply to two schools. Submit your university application for the earliest available intake eg (Winter – January), and then apply to a college for the following intake (Summer – May) as a backup.

This gives you a chance to secure university admission while still having a college (Post graduate diploma) option if things don't work out.

That way, you can try your luck with the university while still having a good chance of receiving a college admission quickly if that doesnt work

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by ATTAHDYE(m): 1:22pm On Jun 28
I have seen 2 of your response to this guy and I wonder why you’re egging him on the wrong part. He does not have the requirements for a Masters program having graduated with a CGPA of about 2.75 over 5.0.

The circled part of the requirements you posted form MUN clearly states that you should have at least 75% which is equivalent to 3.75 over 5.0 in Nigeria.

Please be straightforward with this guy. He should apply for a postgraduate diploma first because that is what his grade can carry.

I am going for a graduate certificate program at Fanshawe college and I have already submitted my study permit application but I didn't upload my Transcript on my IRCC portal, should I create a web form, attach the Transcript and submit. How important is the transcript to my application? I only submitted my University Certificate. I have a second class lower division 3.2 on a 5.0 scale and it is written at the last page of my transcript. I don't want it to be a red flag on my application if the visa officer should go through it. Should I just ignore uploading it and just wait for their final decision?

Good evening, everyone. I got MYBank Statement (MBS) from First Bank on friday. The bank also emailed me a copy of the specific document sent directly to the embassy. However, I noticed that the transaction narrations has only numbers. You can't actually identify who transferred the funds based on those details. Is this the exact format the embassy receives? If so, what is the best way to explain and justify these transactions to the visa officer?

You can apply for another Msc or even Bsc if it carries genuine reason and genuine intentions. For example if you need another Msc in order to upgrade or align in your current job or career or you need the Msc certificate for promotion as mandated in your employment bond etc.

The best time to start using the money is after you must have gotten the temporary visit visa or travel authorisation and you must make sure you are balancing the account because IRCC will vet your POF at Canada POE and they must see the exact balance you submitted to the Canadian High commission b4 your Study permit is eventually granted.

If you can leave the POF funds untouched till you start your classes in Canada that would have been the best.
