I was in 1 in Ottawa yesterday; the queue was not here. Ooooooh.

AbelAbdul:
Less than 5 mins. I only went with my international passport and study permit.

Yes, its got good turn over.
I appreciate; thank you.

ATTAHDYE:
You can submit as soon as you get your CIG certificate.

You should attach what you just called the "source of funds" bank statement(s). The key is to convince the visa officer beyond reasonable doubt about the sources and availability of funds.

If your mother is a business woman as you described, her account will have very good turn over and balances.

How far Labisi08? Any better?

amnotapervert:
Plight21 what program are you looking at?

Linguistics

amnotapervert:
to help Plight21 better can you mention one school that does not charge admission application fee for international students not already in the country or in the school?

What i meant was that most schools in Canada don't waiver application fee.


It's only Toronto that do waive. Recently, I sent fee waiver request to Toronto but I haven't heard from them yet.

Coming to Canada in 2027 to study Linguistics?

Please, I’m not hating ooo, but honestly, don’t waste your money There are better things you can invest that money in

Before you spend thousands of dollars on tuition and living expenses, please make sure the programme is worth the investment and aligns with your long-term career goals I am sure one of your goal is to get PR right ?

do you read write hear and speak french ? if not abort mission

Yes I am

The only school I see doing and MA in Linguistic is UoO and they have an application fee.

Most of the universities in Canada are not accepting HND
I have reached out to many universities they are saying I must have Bsc degree. 🥹🥹

What will you advice me to do please I need your help 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Plight21, since Canada introduced the Express Entry system on January 31, 2015, there has never been a dedicated draw for people simply because they have a degree in Linguistics, apart from the French-language category, which is a different matter

The period under Justin Trudeau, especially during COVID, created opportunities for people with Canadian work experience and Canadian education who had very low score as low as 75 to receive invitations through draws that were much more favourable to them. That period is over.

No province has a dedicated in-demand immigration stream specifically targeting people who studied Linguistics, so you should not assume that you will get a PNP nomination based on that qualification.

If you have been following the news, you will see that since 2024, Canada has increasingly focused on category-based draws targeting specific labour market needs. French-language proficiency is one of the exceptions that can create additional opportunities

Please do your research before spending your money to come to Canada to study Linguistics..not only canada it applies to weatern countries

with your lingustics background look at social services occupations program so you can work as a ( Social and community service workers 42201 or Social workers 41300)

Focus on the in-demand jobs in Canada. Linguistics will not help you. Banking as well will not because banking is competitive even amongst the local Canadian citizens and PRs.

You should look at a program related to your work experience.

They might want to check and confirm the possibility of you having access to that fund. Money mustn't be in your acct. What matters to them is how possible it is for you to access it. Reason I said make sure you have 100% access to it.
Remember you can have access to something even if that thing is not in your possession.

Hi, Good day
I'm also in a similar situation. My brother and mom are willing to sponsor me.
However, how can I prove that I have. access to the funds?

viktuh:
and what if its my sponsor’s account

Hi, Good day.

I would love to ask how you were able to prove you had access to the funds.

If you have enough time, wait and include your tuition receipts.

In my case, I didn't include the receipt because the was taking time to process it. I included the receipt from CIBC that indicated that I paid my fees.

I was able to prove I have access to that fund by making withdrawals from those accts and use the money for my study permit procession.

Do you really have access to the funds? If your answer is 'Yes', tell the officer how you have access to the funds. Give them practical not theory.

In my case the practical I did to prove to them that I have access to the funds was using part of those funds to pay for everything concerning me and the Canadian journey.

e mean?

Ask the school for a new LOA that contains the new start date, a new PAL Nd then write a web form to IRCC explaining the deferral and why you deferred and include the LOA and PAL. But meanwhile go and stamp your passport so your grace period doesn't ellapse.


Please do come back with update of how it went.
