Aww..pls, nobody is answering my question oo

Please, can I completely change the sponsor of a refused Student Visa to a new sponsor in a new Student application without adding any document of the previous sponsor?

Can I do that without raising questions?

You can change your sponsor at anytime ,just try as much as possible to show ties between you and your current sponsor and u could also go further to pay part of ur fees and ur sponsor could make a commitment by putting a reasonable sum of money in your Acct and this should be explicitly stated on his Sponsorship letter and if possible and affidavit will be good too Dint forget that your sponsor has to state why he wants to sponsor you and d benefits he might get if possible ..it's only going to make ur app much more attracting bro d VO.

[quote author=Isdeewhy post=47339980][/quote]Congrats ....I tap from your testimony and I receive on behalf of all nairalanders awaitee like me ..We all will hear good news even with any sought of imperfection or lapses in our application...in Jesus Name ..Amen.

Embassy can only confirm if the account number is exist that is all No time

That's not entirely true, I know of a fellow that used a doctored First Bank for Australian study permit, the Australian embassy in SA wrote back, that checks showed the account name and number existed but transactions had been altered.
So embassy can request more than just name and number. I wil upload the letter from SA soon

pls your opinion of the overall feel of this application would be appreciated. (i would like for someone to go thru my SOP.anyone willing to pls)

Nawa o for CIC! if na London students visa i applied by now i would v known my grounds

You worry too much. Can't u get yourself engaged with some other things?

Thank you so much for this great response, i will have a rethink about this.

yemdogg:


Bros why part-time professional program? I am not questioning your decision or judgment oh....going for a part-time program in Canada has so many disadvantages.

There are several colleges that offer it as a full-time program.

It's a bit late to apply for trv/study permit.... Cos as it is, it seems you haven't started gathering your trv/study permit documents and trust me it takes a while to comfortably gather such documents.

Buh if you insist on applying for trv/study permit now, you should start by gathering your financial documents and by financial documents I mean stuffs like; employment letter, ID Card, study leave, pay stubs,statement of account any other financial documents etc.

Are you using a sponsor? If so, tell your sponsor to gather the listed documents above and to write you a detailed sponsorship letter. You need to prove relationship with sponsor and in doing so you would need documents like; photocopy of the data page of his/her international passport, birth certificate, marriage certificate etc depending on your relationship with him/her.

Am guessing you would need a very detailed and convincing statement of purpose which will be addressed to the Visa Officer stating categorically why you're opting for a part-time professional program in HR in Canada and not your country of residence. I sincerely hope you're able to write a convincing statement of purpose in order not to be delayed on purpose of visit.

Part time programs generally take longer than full-time program.... Please do take your time to prepare a convincing sop. My emphasis is on CONVINCING STATEMENT OF PURPOSE.

Nothing is impossible....just take your time and submit your trv/study permit application.

My advice look for another school that offers HR as a full-time program... I'll give you a hint Conestoga college offers it full-time. Admission is relatively easy too. And you can even apply for winter 2017 and still have enough time to apply for trv/study permit.

Below are the disadvantages of studying part-time in Canada;

YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE TO APPLY FOR A POST GRADUATION WORK PERMIT AFTER CONCLUSION OF YOUR PART-TIME PROGRAM IN CANADA.


YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE TO WORK WHILE STUDYING IN CANADA ON A PART-TIME BASIS.

So please think this through.

@t405, You look too desperate. In as much as we should do our best, to make our app. excellent; trying too hard spells desperation.

Please simplify things. You do not need to notorise all your documents; common, take it easy.

You need to keep your application simple.

I think it's a bit clumsy.

You have a nice profile but you seem to have complicated things.

You do not need to attach a picture showing you're sober or mourning.....seems desperate. If you are applying via paper route vfs won't accept or collect the pictures from you.

Though your undergrad discipline is in French but since you have a six years experience in IT..... I think you're good to go...

I think you need to find another explanation for your study/employment gap between August 2015 and now. Don't lie about when your mom died....these CIC people have records and this might backfire in the nearest future when you're applying for work permit or PR.

Your travel history is good enough but it's just a bonus to your application.... The real issue for study permit/trv is proof of financial capacity, home tie and purpose of visit.

The financial documents you intend to submit.... I really don't understand them particularly SCB I wouldn't know what that means but they seem cogent enough.

It's good that your husband and daughter will not be applying with you....you can use them as home tie.

You actually have a nice profile but please and please DO NOT LIE IN YOUR APPLICATION ESPECIALLY ABOUT THINGS THAY CAN/MAY BE VERIFIED BY CIC IN THE NEAREST FUTURE. (Death certificate cannot be issued twice and you don't know if CIC will request for it in the future)

Please try as much as possible to keep your application simple and unambiguous.

You seem to know much about travelling to Canada as you've attempted to fix/answer any query or question a VO might have. However, you profile screams desperation.

This is my humble opinion and does and not necessarily reflect the views and opinions of Canadian Visa Officer.

I really appreciate your taking out time to read and ur opinions too.

I have been apprehensive about lying too cos death certificate can eaaily contradict me so I wud just take it out and say not in about that period since there's now a near future employment letter I would hope dey would just overlook the work gap period.i would take out the picture too.

SCB is standard chartered bank.

Pls wot more can I do to make it appear less desperate.

Hoping to read from you again.

Many thanks.

i have a friend that studied computer science,has some IT training certifications and was going for this same program of yours in george brown college, i dont know the reason why the VO said on his GCMS NOTE "that the program is inconsistent with his educational and employment background and the VO said too unclear why applicant is going to canada for such course when similar program is available in college level in his home country which made his SP refused.madame try as much as possible to relate this program well cos i see this course is a new program introduced in canada and it's George Brown College that offers it,if u did read the faculty profile well, so that the VO wldnt think it's all this social sciences course.if you can print the program profile and attach it to your application so that the VO will know its an IT related course.i am saying this because of what has happened to my friend.moreover you application covers the every aspect a VO wld want to find excuse but find another activity than this ill health issue to make it clear.i am ur intended canada school mate too. Forget notarizing! To me it's overdoing.as i have seen ur response to @Yemdogg, Noo! Put something for that gap there don't ignore and say they will understand because they might figure it out as" current unemployment situation" and refuse you. Find something meaningful and fix in that gap
