Tuition payment deadline is in 3weeks time , Is it advisable I pay now? or wait till I get an advice from CIC to pay.

I will advice you to wait till the last week before deadline, then you pay.

The payment will only confirm your attendance for the program, then by God's Grace you get your visa.

Since you're employed please do well to add your statement of account. You should get a study leave letter from your employer as well stating how long you'll be away for studies and reaffirming that your place in the firm will be reserved and available for you upon your return from studies.

When u were filling your questionnaire online to check your eligubility to aply online, they must have asked u if u want to apply for a family member, bla bla bla...you need to select yes and answer the questions that follow. At the end, a checklist will be generated for all 3 of u.
Typically you will need to submit
1. Application for TRV made outside of Canada.
2. Upload their data page and visa pages
3. Passpot Photograph

Schedule one is optional for them.

On your own applicaton, you will be required to submit "Use of family member representative". This form authorises to apply on their behalf. Also ensure that the documents you upload as proove of funds can cover their expenses.

Also include in the family information form that they will be accompanying u.

The only way to prove to d VO dt ds d reality is to let him know d reality. Chai! Whatever dt means.

The first question that came to my head was;

Did your friend's sponsor write a proper letter of support, affidavit of support and all other related support documentation?

He did give a letter of support but not a sworn affidavit by a notary. Does this place an importance on the application?
Re: Travelling To Canada Part 7 by Ivylane: 3:59pm On Jun 02, 2015
[quote author=Snappyfingaz post=34346869]

I would advise you to put all visa pages as this removes the possibility of being denied becos of lack of travel history and to back up information you filled in your form about your travel history (except you didnt include that to the question in the last 10yrs have you.........) . there is a reason they ask for it.
kind of to show that you have travelled and returned to Nigeria previously

We can't really tell the importance of it, we're not in the VO's mind, but it's always safe to put it.

Swearing before a notary or in a high court shows that the sponsor has committed himself and is indebted (by law) to sponsoring the applicant.

(Well, Dats how I look at it. )

@ Crich remain honest it is the best policy. if thats the case you have been given study leave and the company has written directly to the embassy in that regard include all papers.
Also add in the conclusion paragraph of your SOP in a sentence that is catchy or the reason you are given the study leave and support from the company etc if that applies.

my take is when you show all hands there wont be room for doubt and imaginations in the VO's or any human mind, dont over think it!
the truth never failed anyone in my opinion.

You could package small sha.. A scenario just came to head..
You worked with them five years ago, you left but the company wanted you to stay.. You felt they were not encouraging your career so you left for ur MBA.. After they called you back and offered to give you the job, you gave them a condition that you will be going for your masters in Leadership first before you can fully work with them... Based on your great contribution the last time you were in their employment, they accepted...
Na you come know how you go put am for SOP or company's statement..
Again, my opinion

Team12:
I am no VO ooo, but come on, we all kniw how this things work. How easy will it be for the VO to believe that a company you iust joined a month ago is giving you study leave? Most companies have a strict policy on study leave.
Meanwhile, I hope you did not state it in your SOP that the CEO is your family friend, cos that might just make it look like he is aranging things to make ur app look real...

My 50 cents!

Just a question I think the VO may ask..
Why will a company you started work with last month give you a study leave for a year or more? Why then did they employ you? Make sure that reason is addressed in your SOP...My opinion!!

Hi Crich. I agree with twizzie. Why will a company hire u knowing that u will go for 1 year, that mean they will have to hire someone else to feel ur space for that 1 year period. To me this makes no business sense for the company. It's also a daunting task for hr to hire. Considering the fact that the world is becoming an employers market.

Hmmm I'm thinking. Is there no way to leave out the study leave story cos it doesn't seem 100% solid. If u were truly given study leave then I guess u can put it. But before God and man if u were not given study leave let's all brain storm and look for a stronger story.

My text might seem kind of rude but trust me I have no intention of been rude. :-) I'm just trying to help.

To all the gurus in the house. I need your advice as to who to use as my sponsor. My dad is a civil servant with salary of about #500
k+ monthly, with steady cash flow and statement of account of 2.5mil. Landed property are many. Rented out apartments are over 13 flats. total rent from all properties are over 3million per annum. Am I good to go with him or use my cousin. His mum is is the elder sister to my mum. No direct relationship. But he is willing to sponsor. I have an affidavit sworn at high court by him. He has a balance of over 100mil, and steady cash flow of over 250mil per month. Should I use him as my sponsor or use his company as he is into fertilizer supply and get an employment letter from him? But am currently serving nysc so I can't be employed by him. Am really confused. I need help. Am going for information technology professional at lambton college. I studied electrical and computer engineering. I have some professional certification like CCNA, Oracle, Web design, project management and CCNP(in view).
