Hello my dear brothers and sisters, I've been silent on the thread because I was really scared after I submitted my application. TBH, I was not even reading posts here again so I don't get sad and discouraged. I was truly scared. I mentioned here once that I was sure I was going to get my msc admission to UOIT but my dear friends, I was not accepted . But while I was waiting for that UOIT admission, something in me prompted me to apply to Durham college for a similar course I intended studying in UOIT just in case. I was very reluctant to apply to Durham because I was too sure about UOIT (I met their admission requirements or so I thought) but eventually I did and got their acceptance letter in 4days lol. As sad and as reluctant as I was in applying for my TRV with my PGC admission because of all I had seen here & being that this was my second application though the first was PGD in HRM which was not what I studied in my undergraduate years, I summoned up the courage to put up a good application (not the best) and I went ahead to submit. I prayed and asked my God to do the rest for me despite what man says and as a God who never fails, He didn't let me down. I got my approval mail this morning, I also tracked and saw passport dispatched. I did upfront medicals. Truly, God answers prayers and does things in His own way and at His own time. Though PGC was not what I really wanted, who am I to complain. I believe I will still achieve the best with this. The way my parents are happy ehnnn, its as if they are the ones traveling. They are even happier than I am. I want to thank you all for your contributions; MichV, arcayo, Tarry & everyone else. I want you all to know that God's ways are not man's ways.

I will list the documents I submitted and how I tried to tackle the refusal reasons in my first application.

Hello folks, is it a must that i must present refrees from
the university i graduated from?

My CIC account


Did u link your application? If yes, Did your approval mail just dropped in your mailbox or from online-link?

Mikymiko:
1. Academic reference gives greater points during review by the admission committee. Since you are a student, it is important you submit only academic reference because you aren't working yet, right?

2. It depends on your school, enquire directly from your intended university of choice.

Chrissybaybee:

Land documents (2 lands)
Birth Certificate

Reference letter from her bank
Letter from her company stating that I am a dependent on a full staff of the company so as such incase of any mishaps (accidents,death -but God forbid it IJN AMEN) the company will be responsible for 60% of my upkeep while in Canada -(the study period only sha)

Siblings and dad:
Birth certificates
Certificate of origin

Me:
CIC forms and checklist
Admission Letter from Durham
University transcript
Resume
University certificate
Waec and neco results
Past letters of employment
Birth certificate
Photocopy of my data page
Sop
Statement of result
Police report
cic passport size (2)
NYSC certificate
E medicals form from TCP
Letter of Attestation of good character from my pastor and mom's lawyer
Previous visas
Statement of account (4.3m) - my sponsor transferred 4m to my account and stated in her sponsorship letter that it's for my travel expenses and upkeep while in Canada for the duration of my study period (1 year)
I was not working but I stated in my sop that I am currently into mobile catering, 'make up' and a fashion designer which are all Bourne out of passion (I didn't even add any form of evidence)

I didn't pay any fees because I had till December to pay. I'll go ahead and pay the required fee to confirm my seat (I'll need help here please because I don't know how it's done now since form A has been barned)
I submitted my application on the 6th of October, I don't know when I passed medicals because I was not notified (I used paper route). Approval mail came in today.

How I tackled my 1st refusal reasons:
It was HRM in centennial college. I was refused based on:
Travel History
Family ties in Canada and country of residence
Personal assets and financial status
Purpose of visit
Current employment situation.

I was denied in November last year.
For travel history: I traveled to Dubai, South Africa, Ghana, kenya, (Jerusalem-Italy-Greece-this was a promo advertised to my mom's coy by a travel agency for 610k to the 3places so we jumped at it)

Family ties: I added my siblings and dads birth certificates, certificate of origin & intl passport data page and also stated in my sop that after my study program I would return to my home country to be closer to my family (na so lol) and then I added my sponsors 2nd land documents. For financial status, I added my account and also stated the transfer from my sponsor to my account in my sop.

Purpose of visit: i studied computer science in school and went for HRM but I guess I was wrong (I actually thought doing a PGD was beneficial to those who wanted to change careers but maybe it's not the same with Canada) so I opted for a related course in computer science. I stated in my sop how the course will be beneficial to me academically and in my home country.

Current employment situation: I noticed it was because I had no work experience in HRM so I included all my past employment letters from companies where I worked in their IT dept. I also included my past IT certification course certificates. I don't know if that helped.

I was able to do all these because of all I learnt on this forum especially from the gurus michV & co.

Well that's all I did. My current course is for 8months and I'm told ild have to do another course after this if I want 3years work permit...arrrrrgh. TBH, this is why I wanted UOIT because the course I opted for was for one year and it's msc, I could have been done in one year but I'm not complaining, I still thank God for this opportunity.

please I'll need help on how to go about in paying my fees o...Abeg don't abandon me + any Durham college applicant for winter 2017?? Please let's rub minds, accommodation and all.

I wish all TRV hopefuls the best. Don't give up, it will come out positive. Amen.

God Bless you all and sorry for my long post.

Congratulations dear. I'm happy you recognized Michv as he has continue to be very helpful. All thanks to God.

Hi @Oversworld.
1. Yes i applied Online
2. They sent an automated message immediately and the next day i got a typed response mail from one of their staff that they had received my mail and additional document i sent.(But that is because in my email i asked them to 'confirm that they had received my email').
3. I sent my email to the Accra. immigration@international.gc.ca , but that is because i was 100% sure my application was sent to Ghana however some applications are done in Lagos here.


My advice send to both emails, it will cost you nothing, also like @yemdogg said, check for that cic thing on your page and send it there too.
In addition , the Title of your email must have your Application nos and tell what the email is about. eg RESPONSE TO VISA OFFICER FOR APPLICATION 1234567
Good day,
My name is ....with Application Nos , applying for a .....applying from (country), ...I submitted on... i am responding to.....

Qupp:
Is the application number the tracking number

Austinpee4:

You should send a mail to accra.immigration@international.gc.ca or use the WEB FORM http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/web-form.asp#q2#q2 to find out the status of your application since it has passed the processing time stipulated.

pololiswang:
Thanks alot Austin, I have used the web form yesterday and i had continually sent mails to the email you provided. Hopefully i get good news soon. When i do i will share it here. Thanks.

nwanna...daalu ri-nne..i pray God remembers you too as i am always looking out to your testimony this period. To all trv hopefuls,may God remember you all.

yemdogg:


Application numberis different from tracking number.

Tracking number is contained in the yellow slip given to you at the vfs office.

While application number is file number @cic. You'd see your application number once you get any correspondence from cic. Or if you applied online.

Dear House,

Please i got an admission for PGD in Toronto i applied for a study permit since 19th of July and as of today 18 Weeks after i still havent gotten a response. My application was really solid, My dad is the sponsor and his account was quite handsome at the time. i have 3 years work experience in Nigeria, we attached my Dads company docs and his landed properties on advice from the agency that helped me to accumulate the documents.

Any one around still awaiting permit of has gotten one after 18 weeks of applying as currently i am already losing abit of hope.

Thanks.
