Hello house, my sponsor is my father, co-sponsor is a family friend. Will the both of them need to do an affidavit? Or just one of them?

Next year July? That's a long time from now.
Don't bother yourself with renewing a passport that's not expiring in the next 6 months not to talk of a whole 1 year+.
There's something called a TRV renewal. You do that in Canada after you renew your passport. In some countries, you cannot renew your passport if it doesn't expire in less than 6 months.

Thank you for this piece.

BE811APP:
Renew it b4 u apply.. but u need to explain it to them first..
It cost like 3k-5k depending on who u meet extra..

My bro did that sometime back when he was about going to skol too..
tho he had like 3months left then..

But i know its possible..

GoodLuck!

Thank you for your input.

Hello guys, i'm applying for a 2-year post graduate diploma at a Canadian college with the hope of using that certificate to gain admission for my Msc in structural engineering after completion of the PGD, i'd like to know if its possible or not so i can rethink my options before applying. thanks

I had the same concern and wat I did was to contact the course administrator by email and I got a reply. I believe u should be able to get the contact of the relevant people from the website. Do u have a 2.1 or 2.2? If u have d former, u could apply straight for masters.

Hello @estherdim I think u are amplifying some things here.
Anyways my little advice will be on the way u started ur letter
I think it should start like this
I am pleased to apply for study permit of Canada and to submit my application for your consideration.
I am, your name, a bachelor' of science in________, from________. (State ur school). I have been offered admission to undergo a two years Master of Engineering program at the University of Toronto, canada. I am to begin studies on the_______. My student ID number is_________. University of Toronto has a designated learning institution number_________.
2. Other things can fall into place after this.
Just my 2 naira, work on ur introduction, this could b helpful.
*smiles*

thanks alot bro,i want to apply as an undergraduate though
moreso where can i fit in from the point you raised to my sop,since i have to make it precise and simple

estherdim:

thanks alot bro,i want to apply as an undergraduate though

Oh yeah, just change the masters prog to undergrad,
Make sure u explain vividly y u want to study in Canada, even if the course is offered in Nigeria, state an advantage studying it over there will add to ur portfolio.. Dont start saying it will improve ur employment status wen u return. Maybe something like the curriculum is different, the course in CAD has added this and that which is not part of the curriculum here in naija.
OK ermm,
1. I feel like it's an SOP FOR ADMISSION, Nonetheless, elaborate on the point I stated, also use the SOP as a way to let the VO KNOW OF UR HOME Ties here in Nigeria.
2. Don't over degrade ur country I think it sounds desperate.
Hope this helps.
I stand to be corrected

Hello Guys,

My brother is putting together his documents to enable him apply for a study permit to do an MBA in Canada. He wants to know whom to address the Letter of Reference from his office to (whether it should be addressed as "To Whom It May Concern" or to the Embassy directly).

Please anyone who have submitted such a document should please advise.

Thanks.

I believe the gurus in the house will give advice on this. I really feel you,but sure there is always a way out in every situation.Stay positive please!
I learnt so much from this,God will help us and this simply remind to keep every information I fill in my head or keep them somewhere in the event of planning to enter another country,the same information should be repeated without mincing words.
Another lesson,always find a cogent reason to defend your reason for pursuing a course in Canada when in the true sense,such course exist in your country.
Let me quickly share this,if you are applying for a Project Mgt program and you are asked in the questionnaire why you would like to study in Canada when such is offered in your country,you can simply defend yourself that,you have a dream to be a project consultant and as such,the 40 hour contact lecture with some project management preparatory class around the country will not give you the desired training/exposure you dream.Training in an international school will boost your chances to be relevant in your career globally.

It will end in praise for us all.

domex007:
gurus i hail ooo!
after waiting for my gcms file for almost 2 months, they sent it to me on friday (94 pages) most pages were my cic forms and personal docs of me and my sponsor.
Truly canad and US share information, it was stated there, they matched some of my biography with the once i submitted at the US embassy in
2013,
2014
and 2015 when i applied for student visa which was refused i was advised by US consular in my last interview to try my education else where thats why i picked canada.
this is the officer's note:
Docs n notes reviewed conclusion: Limited previous travel demonstrated - Limited family ties - applicantis single and young with no listed dependants - concerns over personal finances. Majority of financial documents sumitted are for a third party. Not satisfied that applicant will readily have access to the available funds stated on application forms. Applicant has not provided compelling reasons to study in canada. Unclear why applicant would incur cost of relocating to canada to rather that undertake similar course of study in country of residence. Concerns applicant is using study permit as means to facilitate entry to canada rather than educational advancement. Based on available information, i am not satisfied that applicant will leave canada after end of authorised stay. Study permit refused..
application date :
2015/nov.
sponsor: Uncle Dad's brother. (US citizen) medical doctor.
reason: my dad is late that why he is funding me
statement of account: $100,000usd
course nursing
school: conestoga college
fees: $13750 (paid part tuition of $6750) to conestoga
reasons for refusal ticked; Travel history, personal asset and financial issues, purpose of visit, family ties in canada and nigeria.

To all in the trend: i need your input, if there is any need applying again cos i dont even know where to start tackling these issues. honestly i am tired and frustrated. i have spent a lot of money on US and canada

Ethan45:
If CIC think its expedient for them to delay online route applicants up until there bitterness for Naija apps turns into a belly laugh,no wahala. I go wait. Becos i wouldnt want our online app to be like that of paper applicants-denial for no candid reason. Its maddening. They can hold my application till god knows wen until they solve there bitterness then come back to my app because i wouldnt want anoda denial and stress of reapplying. Dollar is on the increase. I applied since 8th feb and the mail i get is thank u for your patience,my patience is filled to the brim and it's running over.

Same here. Applied since 5th feb, nothing from them except d thank u for ur patience mail. Actually tout online application was faster.

One canadian dollar cost almost #230 on my master card.

jaybmich:

Bro, abeg when did u apply to U Alberta and what dept

Congrats on your TRV, but your response still haven't answered my question..

@estherdim, please take down your SOP asap. Someone else will copy it and use it for his/her app before you even use it. Plagiarism is very rampant on Nairaland. You don't want the VO to refuse your application because he/she thinks you plagiarized someone else's whereas it was someone else that plagiarized yours. I have seen many plagiarized SOPs emailed to me to help review.

Edited: I am now unsure if the SOP you posted is yours or not (it looks familiar). If it isn't yours, then write your own from scratch . This process may take time (days to weeks), but it is well worth it. Think deeply about why you want to go to Canada (apart from the fact that you want to run away from Naija lol), what your Naija ambitions are (i.e. what are the sort of Naija problems/opportunities that you have identified and want to solve/harness), why & how studying your course in Canada would help accelerate your ability to achieve those Naija ambitions. Give examples of what specific skills from the course would develop you enough to be able to effectively pursue and implement your ambitions. Try as much as possible to show the VO that you are a serious person. Link what you have done in the past with those ambitions and future goals. Be credible and convincing, tying together parts of your life/educational trajectory (and application) to make a coherent whole. Be concise. Best wishes.
