Your first application (denied) were u ask to pay , and share ur profile on it, so the house can sharp sharp tackle am...(2). If you are giving the admission now, no wait till November/ December before u apply. What course are u going for... U.G or PGD or PG...

Thanks for your concern.. I was told 'payment' of a semester tuition was a means of confirmation of admission, I wanted to pay but I had lil issh wit my bank and time was against me so I applied without paying..I'm going for a PGD program. Thanks

Ok, if you still wish to re apply with the same school admission, may sure you follow the school rules(by paying d semester fees) or better still, get another admission from another school as u said and apply immediately... Good luck!!!

Hello house, how are you guys doing?
I want to apply for masters studies in mcgill but I don't know too much about the school. can anyone tell me about the school, if it's suitable for international students, whether you have applied there or not. If it's not, please tell me another school that I can go for apart from mun and u of saskatchewan.
Thanks

Gud am all. I am posting this on behalf of my boss in office. He is 42yrs old and married(no kids yet). Has a Masters in Elect / Elect Engr frm UK in 2009 with about two publications. He got admission for PGD in Canada for Automation Engr which is closely related to his first nd second degree and also work schedule in office. He was given 2yrs postgraduate work permit in UK after masters and he spent one year of the permit before returning to Nigeria to pick his present job. His sponsors now are his inlaw and younger uncle.
What are his chances for visa approval?
Should he apply without stating he has Masters already?

Re: Travelling To Canada Part 8 by obiscolly(m): 10:56am On Aug 19, 2015
Hello house, i'll like to know if a sponsor can use only his business account for the TRV application? He runs a primary and secondary school with a fairly constant flow of income from student fees and there are times depending on the time of year when the bank balance hits N8m or more. But last month it dropped to about N1m because of some capital expenditure in the secondary arm of the school. School resumes 14th sept, and he's sure by the end of next month the account should have risen up to about N7-8m again. I intend submitting my application end of september. My question now is : won't that sudden drop in balance to about N1m be a source of concern to the VO reviewing my application? Will explaining this in the application do any good?

Hello house,
I just want to ask if any school offers a pre-masters program in Canada?
Better still, what steps can someone with a 3rd class take towards achieving a masters degree.

Thanks

good morning everyone

i'ld like to share my experience with you guys from MMA to Toronto. if you travailing on a student visa pls make sure ur offer letter is in ur hand luggage and your original WEAC or Neco result as print out copies were not allowed and most students traveling were delayed boarding their flights.

my experience at immigrations Toronto

i'ld advice while on queue to see an immigration officer just look out for immigration officer with less wahala which was what i did to avoid mad scrutiny

then make sure u pay at least half ur tuition cos they demanded for our tuition receipt as a prof we were coming to study a Ghanian guy was almost denied entry cos he didnt pay fees bur he was able to prove the school asked to pay on arrival how ever an Arab girl was denied entry as she couldn't prove shes coming to study. don't know if they allowed her later bur she was told to stand at the waiting room

then make sure u have ur account statement to show prove of funds and also show them ur bank cards to show you have access to the accounts.

surprisingly the immigration officer i went to asked me the length of my program which is a year he smiled and said i know you've got your eyes on PR i smiled and said well.. True he briefed me how to go about it and how to extend my visa if i wish to bur i should do it legit.

Thanks everyone for your support if you need any help am willing to assist as long as it within my capacity. And to all TRV hopefuls don't worry too much your approval mail is here keep the hope and faith alive we serve a living God.

Question for the house: my sister is starting her MSc program in January and she already got her TRV, while my brother is yet to apply for his TRV to start a PGD program in January as well. They have the same sponsor with sufficient funds.

Do you guys think it creates a bad impression that my brother is trying to go to Canada at the same time as my sister? I am paranoid that the VO may see it as a desperate attempt to go with my sister. Fyi their schools are 550km apart. Would it look better if he deferred his admission to May (but still apply for TRV in September)?

Re: Travelling To Canada Part 8 by thesoj: 3:22pm On Aug 19, 2015
@obiscolly
I think it might be a bit risky to use only the sponsor's business SOA if the average end-of-month balance (over the last six months) is less than twice your school annual expenses. Imho, the VO knows that since it is a business account there is likely to be a lot of unexpected expenses; as a result, for such account to be used as the sole statement, it would be beneficial if the ending balance were about twice your school fees. This is not to say that you can't get the TRV with that SOA, my suggestion is based on the premise of playing it safe and reducing as much risk as possible.

I would recommend adding the sponsor's personal account as well, or getting a co-sponsor.

How much is in the sponsor's SOA?If it can coneveniently cover for both with enough cash remaining..There is absolutely nothing wrong. Just like u earlier transferred som funds from sponsor's account to applicant school account. This move will show the funds are available and will be used for study...

Your brother doesn't have to differ, since your sister already got her TRV there's no problem atall.

Thanks for the info Kenny and Taike.

If I'm to say why you weren't asked, I'll say it's cos you're a PhD student cos both of your arrived at the same Toronto airport yesterday.... So the issue of many students still holds for Taike.

PhD students na visa consulates' pikins in all the 1st world countries cos they value research more than anything else. They are always treated specially...

***I'm yet to see any PhD student that applied for visa in any country's visa consulate that was denied visa... ***

Welcome to Maple land. May God bless all your hustles.

Today marks a year of my entry into Maple land, I will go to midday mass today and thank God for His blessings and favours so far, while still asking Him for the best in all my life endeavours...

He's a faithful God...
