LOL.......this na spanking new development for fall 2015 applicants.

Turpsie:


Noooo it's not, I did my medicals on that day too. So I met a guy on that day, I thought it might be d person

ayooluwatoni:


You know some people stay so far away from Lagos, Abuja or PH. So you can imagine the number of times they would have to travel to Lagos, putting to consideration the dead traps we call roads. In addition, medical reports last for a year according to CIC. But if their reasons for the upfront is to fast track their applications, then it's a complete waste of time.....and increases tension the more. The two weeks silent period before I was called for medicals was really killing.....the medical call gave some relief and hope......so can't now imagine going for 6 weeks or more without anything....... kai! Canada high commission no dey try honestly!!!

The mail says
To facilitate your arrival in Canada,inform the officer of the reason for your visit (study or work)and present this letter with your passport.

Why I am confused here is that my passport is with them in Ghana as I submitted via the Paper route, so I wonder why they are giving me this STORY.

So therefore, I am asking has anyone got this similar mail prior to the passport being dispatched and visa issued

Crich:

Online. Was urs an upfront? Did you send the mail to cic yourself after receiving the medical request?

myb012:
No1 wants to ansa me

TheBae:
I didn't do upfront and I went almost 8 weeks without hearing anything. That reason doesn't hold water.

@myb012

Have ur passport stamped @ YYZ wiv d ON offer letter, go online notify CIC of a change of Sch and move to MB.. Got admitted to UoManitoba 4 Masters, few days after arriving ON and that's what I did. If u r already enrolled in d Sch @ ON (if u paid tuition), pls ask for a withdrawal/refund process and fill d CIC notification form given to u by the Sch too, if any.




Tnx alot.yayy
#hope this helps

Yes dear, unless u r a citizen / PR, study permit / postgraduate work permit is d doc that can grant u legal status in Canada, and most provincial Nursing colleges (d final stage of licensure) would ask for proof of that. And u can only get it if u first apply as a student.

2. Those r d Fields u can get into easily in Ontario colleges without a Canadian practicing license.. Other provinces sometimes require u to have a practicing license 2 take these courses and they r mostly of shorter duration.

3. Licensure would cost btw 300-500k in Naira (Max). This estimate includes fee charges, courier charges, et al.. I encourage ppl to start the process from their home country, as it reduces ur waiting time here in Canada. Max it can take is 6-18months, depending on d province.To begin d process, visit www.nnas.ca

bc2015:

300-500k? whew!!! wish we can have a universal nursing license tho .

Please endeavor to read previous pages (or do a creative google search where you add "nairaland" to your search phrase) of the thread.

Anyways, here's what I found:
@richcasey and @Gods1son wrote about your question here.
@Ajishegs and @akanni also talked about it here.

I did a google search using "trv change school nairaland canada" as my search phrase. You could ask any of the above nairaland users who previously asked/answered the question to see if their strategy worked.

the way them dey do college applicants no good o,

You don't need a U.S. visa since you don't have to go to the U.S. for anything. Once it is approved, you drive to the closest border to you, make a U-turn and that border point becomes your PoE where your study permit will be printed and given to you. I have met a few people who did same.

IyaEjima:

Lol! I wish so too.. Good thing is u won't cough out the money at once so u won't feel it.lol

ahyotomiwa:
@LEXYJ123...actually our profile with dates are same..app date, med call date except mine is still reading processed not dispatched..it all well.

lightdotcom:
Think all apps whether college or univ are given same treatment.

Lemme share my last experience in the US, it may not be the same though. I had a program at Stanford University in California, but my flight from the UK had a stop at Detroit. I was planning to stay a couple of days before and after the program in Maryland (just for a couple of weeks), so my flight was booked for London to Washington Dulles, as I left London for US. I told a friend in the US to book a flight for me from Maryland to California, which he did and sent the ticket to my mail box, but I was too lazy to print the ticket until I got to the US that fateful day. US customs grabbed me at the port of entry and demanded for my ticket to California (venue of the program), I had it in my box, but of course there was no internet access at that particular place, no free wiffi, lica (uk sim) wasn't working at that spot (guess it was intentional, I dont really know). It wasn't funny, the guy took it up with me big time, was taken to a situation room.......missed my connecting flight, yet no show! Had to give them the details of both my host at Maryland, whom they called to confirm if he was aware of my coming, and also my friend that booked the ticket for me. I was yet not released, not until he gave sent my ticket details to the officer in charge, and my booking was confirmed to be true and genuine. It was indeed a horrible experience.
Please don't mind my long story, but my candid advise, please go to where you claimed you would be going first. Except if you have the admission letter of the uni in Manitoba..........that's what I think! Else you beg the elders in the house to pls talk!

yetunde84:

myb012:
