Hummm...very intresting forum...I have a friend (not on nairaland) who has gotten admission to Uni Regina. She wants to use study leave for her application and where she works, she is allowed to use her outstanding leave days to compensate as part of study leave. She has 100 and sumthing leave days (accumulated over the years ) which means she will earn like 3 to 4montsh salary while in school. if she submits a letter from her coy stating this and her SOA of 40kUSD and ofcourse other required docs, please what her chances?...she is married with 2kids...

As at middle of March, I was asked to go pay in a nearby GT bank. I was given a 'customised' teller. They told me they only accept POS payment for some other services.

You should be there before 10:00 Mondays to Friday or between 8:00 and 9:00 on Saturday.

Cheers!

Dear House, I was delayed yesterday. The only reason ticked is financial resources. I want to reapply ASAP cos my admission is for Fall, 2015. I used my Dad and my Uncle as sponsors. My Dad is retired and I suspect the V.O. felt the money in his acct wasn't good enough. He had 3.8M out of which he was to support me with 3.5M as stated in his letter of Sponsorship. My Uncle had 2.1M in his acct and he wrote in his letter of Sponsorship that he will support me with 4M, although his pay package showing that he earns 11m per year was attached + his land docs. Can I use only my Uncle for this 2nd app and tell him to beef up his acctt or should I use a fresh sponsor. Pls advise. I feel sad but I wana stay focused cos I know I can still get it cos there is time. Thanks!

I just followed you now, please follow back so that I can seek your advice on a pressing need I posted that I've not gotten any reply from other gurus. Maybe, they've not seen is yet. Your posts and other gurus' on this thread has really giving me hope to ride on with my TRV app by myself.
May God reward you abundantly, Amen.
Thanks.

House please advise:

My co-sponsor has given me all required documents. However, in place of CAC documents, he has provided a certificate given to him by his professional body (Architecture) stating that his business is recognised and his source of funds is legit (He has been practicing since the '80s and he is a very big shot in the industry). Please can this work in place of CAC docs?

I earlier requested for Certificate of Incorporation, Particulars of Directors and a couple of invoices or receipts. I am thinking of still pushing for at least the certificate of incorporation.

What do you guys think?

Graphical:
House, pls help out o. Can one have 3 co-sponsor. I want to be the main sponsor, my hubby wants to assist with certain amount. My sister-in law wants to pay for accommodation and my brothers wants to support financially. Can I present them as co-sponsor? I don't want to create any suspension by asking them to lodge money into my account. Advice me please

pchax:


Don't sweat it about the CAC documents. The Architecture stuff should be sufficient. You don't want to push your co-sponsor that hard that he revolts. If you are not still satisfied with the Architecture certificate and he doesn't want to release his CAC docs, you say he is a big shot in the Architecture industry, then his picture with his position or something might have appeared in the news. Print the newspaper page. I have not seen anyone do it here though but i guess it will work because I know someone who used it for an American Visa application to prove he was an executive officer in a bank. He included ALL newspaper cutouts where his face appeared.
Wishing you the best!

...

1. How to satisfy the officer that i will leave Canada after my studies?

2. Length of proposed stay in Canada ? ( I wrote an SOP and attached is an offer letter)

3. Purpose of visit ( for sure i am going for study this one made me really angry so much.....)

4. my personal assets ? ( do they mean landed proprieties ?)

5.travel history?

6. my current employment situation ( finished NYSC last yr no job yet. Wat exactly do they mean?)

Pls help me I'm confused...

Apart from statement of account, what other document did you use to show proof of the fixed deposit
Please follow back, thank you

Ugochux:


Her chances?? IMO, I wd say, 'same as every other applicant'.. Let her package her docs properly, provide all the necessary docs, Pray and submit..husband n kids cn serve as good home-ties..*i stand to be corrected*

Taike:
@Team12 Are you including a police clearance certificate as part of your documents?

Team12:
Thank you for the info.

Team12:
Nope. I don't think it is compulsory...*i stand to be corrected* ...like @Ugocchux

hayqinsbFX:
you better do....you dont want to be locked in some kinda unnecessary tension zone when you submit

darefestus:


Like it or not there is always a tension zone after submission. Many people just don't state it here while waiting it out and others cant be bothered about it after their TRV has been approved.

Team12:
Please anyone that has chopped TRV without Police report kindly signify by raising up ya hand

...but seriously in need to know if pple have been successful without it.

darefestus:


Yes..Yes...and Yes
I personally have two friends who got TRV without submitting the PCC..You could also read parts past to see people who didnt submit and still got their visas.
I must warn you though that all of these people submitted online so it may have more significance if you will be submitting paper application.
In saying that I think your best bet is getting it and having ine less thing to worry about during the wait for trv..
Success.

Sorry to hear about your delay. Working on the assumption that the VO who reviewed your application was not drunk, kindly note the following points.
This is basically a home-tie issue. Some people use spouses. Others use family business. I used my long term goal. Your 1st paragraph in you SOP can contain your long term goal in relation to Nigeria and how the studies you are embarking on can make you achieve that goal.
Did your offer letter EXPLICITLY state how long your program will last for? Mine did not. It just gave a range of 4 - 9 semesters. The onus lies on you to state EXPLICITLY how long you plan to use to finish the program. Your sponsors should also collaborate how long you want to stay by stating EXPLICITLY how long they plan supporting you for.
Really hard to play devils advocate on this one and assume the VO isn't drunk but you can look at the subject of all letters you submit. State it there that you are applying for a study visa in the subject of your letter of introduction. Your sponsors should also mention that. I assume you did that, so I will stop talking at this point.
Literally, that's what it means. But tonnes of people have got their TRV without using any landed property or even personal SOA.
Been to Iran, Syria or Turkey in the past 12 months? There is a part in one of the forms where you fill where you have been to.
NYSC is a job. Include it in your CV and state what you did during service. Don't say "no job yet". Are you studying for a professional exam? You can use that as what you currently do and add a spin to it to make it go in line with why you want to pursue your studies abroad. There is always a spin to add to the employment thingy.
Same here. I think the VO is pretty drunk or you might not have filled one of those computer generated forms. Best of luck if you want to refire.

tnuola, Cocolav(I see you), modskiller, pchax, hayqins, Team12, thank you all for ur comments. I feel stronger knowing that u guys care. Am sorry am just responding, been at work all day, not lettn the delay bother me at all. Well this is the position now: Dad's account as at today is 2M. As per beefn it up, that's not gonna happen cos he's got no other source of income except his 50k pension which is paid monthly. So I feel using him again will raise a red flag, cos the V.O. will wonder why his SoA moved down from 3.8M to 2M in 6 weeks of my first app if he truly wanted to sponsor me.
