IRCC expects you upon arrival in Canada to have enough liquid money in hand (in the bank) in order to start your new live and sort out tuition deficits . Hence as a Nigerian you must prove beyond a doubt that you can convert the gift ” to real money since gift deed or notarization is already abused.

You must also prove to ircc that the gift has no condition attached or obligation to return it otherwise you will score zero in POF.

Your best way is to get the funds transferred to your bank account or sponsor's account and then attach the gift notarization . Also let the donor write an official SOP (with court affidavit) indicating who is he to you as well as his motive for the gift and how the money was remitted. Do not pay more than the $2k CAD deposit.

Good day Family, please I have some questions to ask,I applied for study visa late last year but was refused due to using a microfinance account as POF and also not making full payment of tuition fee, so this year April I re-applied and change my POF to a commercial bank and also paid full tuition fee but the last updated in my application was May 21 that medical was passed, Since then I haven't heard from IRCC, and my school is resuming by August,have sent mails and fill web forms all to no avail, please what could be the problem..Kindly help me with info please....Am so worried

PhdCloakRoom:
IRCC can reach them with all their available means thats not a problem. Ask grey if they have being doing it for student visa applicants especially from Africa and if they say affirmative then go ahead. If their explanation is not straight forward then use your local account but i believe they should be honest with you in order to avoid litigation.

I initially wanted to start at Fall (Sept) 2027 simply because I wanted to clock work anniversary at my place of work next March but I am not keen anymore on waiting for a whole year plus. So I want to bring it forward to Winter (Jan) 2027. I am fully self-funded. I intend to pay the full 2 year tuition upfront and do a GIC for the max possible sum and present both as part of my visa application docs including other savings in USD. So it is not a funding issue per say.

No, do not spend extra money on that. As long as the documents are genuine, just submit them to IRCC. Attach a written note explaining that you are providing your tax returns for the last three years to demonstrate that you contributed meaningfully while living in Poland by paying your taxes, and that these documents serve as proof of that contribution.

Make sure the documents in Polish contain your personal information ( your name your polish social security number things like that) . I am sure IRCC can use translation tools or have them reviewed if necessary. The main purpose is to show that you have been a law-abiding resident and have fulfilled your tax obligations in the country where you have been living.

amila20042001:
If I may ask, is it your current work that gave you your POF since you are self funded?

If yes, how long have you worked there?

Which course and program do you intend to study in Canada and which school?

Sorry, the questions might seem personal, but I have my reasons for asking. Nb: Got my PPA 4years ago, graduated 2 years ago

How far? You don book flight? I am trying to get the cheapest flight to Toronto.

AbelAbdul:
Good morning bro. I am struggling to book emirates with my GTBank. Having issues with otp

Predator188:
High risk using this as POF red flagged by ai overview, this is not a traditional bank.

dsureguy:
I don't believe in that at all... I'm the king of using non-commercial banks for applications.

For my visit to CA, I used Rova (which is Nigerian MFi just like GREY) and a swiss online bank account and it was approved
my CA student visa, two Canadian bank accounts, a GIC, and a Lithuanian online bank account (bulk of the money) and it was approved
My parents' US visa: I used my Lithuanian online bank account only, as their sponsor failed them at the last minute so had to step in, and it was approved.

So far the bank is licensed and has the country's financial approval, and you are not cooking documents; my take is to use it.

Cullinane:
This is my thinking plus Grey is registered in Canada as an in-country and cross border payment service provider. It is so easy and smooth to use. Love their service like mad. Please what's the tea on the Swiss and Lithuania online bank account. Why was it necessary? Details please. Thank you.

dsureguy:
did you get a good deal with them...?

undespicable:
Hi, I want to use this opportunity to really thank you, my application was approved last week, but I wanted to collect my passport from vfs first before I share the good news here. I really thank you for the good you do here, God will continue to bless you. I'll share the list of documents I submitted later, but I'm a very private person so some personal stuff, e.g. the name of the university I'm going will not be shared here, it's a public school in Ontario. Basically the only thing different I did from your advice was that I didn't pay the 4K CAD for part of the tuition fee, I didn't pay anything because my admission offer was conditional so I didn't want to risk the money (but I've met the condition now), some certain documents I wanted to include I didn't include them as they were in Polish language and I didn't want to spend money unnecessarily translating for something not required and also the documents I have were already too much and I was worried about compressing them and still retaining a readable quality, for example I did not include the tax return documents. Thank you once again for actively answering people's questions, including my questions, you're one of the realest here. My application approval took exactly only two weeks after submission, no web forms, nothing, I think it was fast. Thanks

amnotapervert:
Congratulations to you! Thank God. I pray that you receive all your heart's desires, and may Canada favor you even beyond your expectations. Wishing you continued success, open doors, and abundant blessings in this new chapter

Check mount saint vincent university.

Once you have a minimum of 3.0, they will grant you admission.

I know couple of students studying there now with 2.2 ( 3.0 minimum )

ehiremen2002:
Just to update the house. One of the family application i submitted June 6th. We got a passport request for the Mother while the 2 kids were denied Reasons for the refusal of your application

To help you understand why your application was refused, below are the Officer Decision Notes
(ODN) specific to your application as they are displayed in IRCC’s system.

These notes were entered by the officer who assessed and made the final decision on your
application.
I have reviewed the application. Applicant is a minor applying to accompanying parent on a
SP. There is insufficient documentation to demonstrate consent for one parent to be traveling to
Canada with minor. I am not satisfied minor applicant has demonstrated that appropriate parental
consent has been obtained to travel to Canada. As such, I am not satisfied the applicant will
leave Canada by the end of the period authorized for their stay. Application refused under
R216(1)(b).
Requesting ODNs in your official language of choice:
In some cases, Officer Decision Notes may not be available in your official language of choice
(English or French). To receive the notes in your preferred official language of choice, please
send your request to translate.ODN-traduire.NDO@cic.gc.ca and include the following
information in your email

So I we will quickly try reapply for the two kids today.
