Hello house, I was refused visa for winter. I want to submit my application again, am I not supposed to request for another admission letter for September before submitting my application again or I should submit with the January acceptance letter? Justwise michV

Sept admission letter I guess and apply for gcms file. Please apply for GCMS file before reapplying. Thank you.

You need to contact your school to know if you really need a new admission letter or use the one you have now.

I am also a GBC student still expecting my TRV. I applied on 10th Oct 2016 and resumption is 9th January.
Medical passed on 5th Dec and nothing else till now.
I will be attending St James campus

Also applied 10 oct to GBC. Medical passed but got refusal mail yesterday 6/1/17. Refusal based on travel history , purpose of visit n vo do not think i will return to nigeria after school....my agent advised I applied for another school for masters not pgd because of my age (34)..still looking at my options n d best way.....for those still expecting...wish u guys all the best....

i still await to hear the testimony of those who applied for TRV with Human Resources Management program PGD(C) for winter 2017. those who doubted my possibility of such approval when there is NEVER convincing relationship,no matter if you write 10 pages of SOP to prove point should come out of their silent mode to prove me wrong.

Send me an email or drop your email i'll send you the format..
Meanwhile i tracked my application on vfs website , and it says mu passport is ready for pickup. I am currently out of lagos, i will like to call them, but the number on the website doesn't connect and i get a feedback saying the number is not assigned. Has anyone experienced this?

Am just scared now but I know able GoD exist, I am October 10 applicant and I have not gotten any medical call... I know everything is going to be fine with we TRV and medical call hopeful... we are going to share a good testimony this coming week.
Amen.

Good day great house. I want to know if it's advisable to do medicals before visa application. I'm about starting my Canadian VISA application. Someone pls help me with a good advice as its urgent.
2. Can I start my canadian VISA without submitting my International Passport immediately as I intend traveling with the passport for a short journey and would also want to start the application. Thank you

seyo99:


I was but I think it's because I haven't gotten medical call.... Or is there more to that ?

I don't think so. It's supposed to be showing with or without medical call.
Maybe your file is being processed.
Plus I hear all online applications are processed any where in the world. I don't know how true that is.

Hi MichV. Someone was given trv last week with PGC, HRM. Checkout for her testimony.

Yeah online application is being processed anywhere (any country)

We have seen some here ... Paris France
Some Nairobi Kenya
Some London etc

But paper is certain ... it's Accra Ghana

Good morning Gurus
Why are most people applying for program like pdg, Pgc diploma instead of going for Msc directly and like i can see most people here are applying to Colleges instead of University... Why?

Is there any reason for that or maybe i am missing an information or it is just base on personal discretion.....?

I need some explanation please??

1. You could do either an upfront medicals or you wait apply you apply to be called for medicals. It is as u wish and depends on you. No diffence really except that if you do upfront medicals you could easily note that you have passed or failed it. It doesn't mean the visa would come out early. It's just God. Upfront medicals if passed would put u in a position that oh the next mail I might be getting might be passport request if favourable

2. It's not compulsory you submit your passport. You could tell them at the VAC centre that u would be needing it soon( if paper application) or if its online you would definitely not be submittting it now.

Sorry for the delay, please know that God will perfect it in d nxt application.
Did you do upfront medical?
What's your course of study and your UG program?
You can also share your docs so that gurus can advise appropriately

princeadedayo:

Is there any way one can know where its being processed while the application is still within processing time.
I also think that's y it takes time to process Nigeria applicants who go through online route because of the difficulty in docs verification
My opinion though

Easy admission or lower CGPA in most cases.

@folaroyal good morning pls I sent you a mail, have you seen it? I got a refusal mail last night reasons are 1. insufficient have sufficient and available financial resources,without working in Canada,to pay the tuition fees for the course or program of studies that you intend to pursue 2. You have not satisfied me that you would leave Canada at the end of your stay. In reaching this decision,I considered several factors,including. 3. purpose of visit. How do I tackle all this pls, I need all the advise I can get.

If you apply online you might know but I think that's when they send your messages or updates to your application. Then you would see the processing office.

I don't think so I have seen someone whose trv got approved like a day before in France and his passport was ready for collection the next day. I think they use a very fast service in transporting their documents. It's just God that decides how fast it comes out

Sorry for you delay broad. Please don't waste your time and mony to reapply with the course again . I also studied Economics and I can't see any relationship between Economics & Supply Chain Mgmt, unfortunately your agent won't know or tell you. Also, the last life saver that you could have used for your app was your JOB EXPERIENCE in a Supply Chain related coy which unfortunately I can't see any where you submitted anything with respect to your employment based on your profile above.
My advice for you is to calm down and get a course that is related to Economics and your job experience. Your age to a great extent wasn't the problem so far you can explain in terms of documentary evidence what you ve been doing since graduation.

Regards

You are correct. Online application can be proceesed anywhere but then, when it is approved, your passport upon request will be sent to the nearest canadian embassy and not necessarily the office that reviewed and approved your application. This is just to make it faster to get your trv stamped and enable you travel. The approved study permit will be issued when you arrive the airport in canada.

Bros, where have you been hiding?

I am happy to be on this thread. I am also an applicant to the University of Regina for Summer intake for Mengr with coop in Petroleum System Engineering. I really need advice on what to do while applying for TRV. I really need people to help me out.

I am a graduate of Chemical Engineering with a second class upper division (80%). I graduated 2009.I had my MSc degree also in Chemical Engineering with 75percent performance which I started 2012 and finished 2014.I was supposed to finished my Msc program 2013, it was actually delayed due to ASUU strike and I eventually convocated 2015.

While on this program, I had already done with my course work, while waiting for my Msc thesis project defense. I was able to get a temporary offer with Oil and Gas company in Lagos in the year 2013. While on this project, I had opportunity of travelling to four European Countries for training, which are Germany, France, Belgium and Netherland.Though I was been paid handsomely during this training program, but there is no payslip to show for it.

I was not retained at the expiration of my offer by September 2014,due to oil market price .

I am also in possession of NEBOSH IGc general Certificate in occupation health and safety from United Kingdom coupled with some Oil and Gas industry training certification.

Presently, I am on full funded sponsored schorlaship from the Nigerian Federal government agency, my scholarship covers tuition, accommodation, living expenses and going and to flight ticket for my trips including my visa processing. The only exclusion to the schorlaship is the cost of looking for admission in my School of interest.

Reading people‘s comments on this thread got me skeptical about Canada TRv and I think the gurus can help me to do the careful analysis of the whole scenario.
I am a guy of 29years of age, still single, though Searching(lols).

Will it make sense for me to include my Msc scenario in my visa application? Then, if it is not necessary, how do I explain this gap in my SOP? It is just too complicated to come up with a sound explanation.

Moreover, I also need to explain the gap after I finished my temporary offer with the company I worked with between September 2014 to now. How can I come up with reasonable explanation that will attract VO attention.

Moreover, coming to the issue of personal fund, do I still need to proof a personal fund to the VO, considering the fact that my scholarship is over sufficient for my studies. please helps me do justice to all these issues that may come up in the the Mind of VO while reviewing my application

Thank you very much for helping a brother out.

I am still expecting more comments on the above topic. Thank you so much for your anticipated responses

Thank you

It can be unnerving when time is running out and CIC are yet to respond. My app will be 15 weeks next week. School resumes 19th. I'm hopeful too.

Hello house, my application has been refused!
The reasons for refusal are asterisked below
I want to reapply and advises will be welcomed
I have also differed my admission till September
Subsection 11(1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) provides that any person wishing to
become a temporary resident of Canada must satisfy an officer that he or she is not inadmissible to Canada and
that she or he meets the requirements of the Act.
Following an examination of your application, I am not satisfied that your application meets the requirements of
the Act and the Regulations for the reasons explained below. Please note that only the grounds that are checked
off apply to the the refusal of your application.
Pursuant to Section 219 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulation, I am not satisfied that
you:
have submitted written documentation from the educational institution at which you intend to study
that states that you have been accepted to study there
have sufficient and available financial resources, without working in Canada, to pay the tuition fees
for the course or program of studies that you intend to pursue
have sufficient and available financial resources, without working in Canada, to maintain yourself
and any family members who are accompanying you during your proposed period of study
have sufficient and available financial resources, without working in Canada, to pay the costs of
transporting yourself and any family members who are accompanying you to and from Canada.
You have not submitted a Certificat d’acceptation du Québec (CAQ).
*You have not satisfied me that you would leave Canada at the end of your stay. In reaching this
decision, I considered several factors, including:
*travel history
immigration status in country of residence
family ties in Canada and in country of residence
length of proposed stay in Canada
*purpose of visit
employment prospects in country of residence
current employment situation
personal assets and financial status.
your history of having contravened the conditions of admission on a previous stay in Canada
You have submitted documentation which lacks authenticity as part of your application. This has
diminished the overall credibility of your submission. I was therefore not satisfied that you are not
inadmissible to Canada and that you meet the requirements of the Act and Regulations. Specifically, I
was not satisfied that the following documentation is authentic:
You have not complied with our request for information, as per section 16(1) of the Immigration and
Refugee Protection Act. To date, you have failed to comply with our request for:
Completion of a medical examination
An interview
The following documents:

TemitopeJ16:
Honestly I am devasted with this CIC style of treating peoples application. Most of us will resume next Monday and up till no medical calls.Canny is not a place u can plan within 3 days.I am not sure that I will b given the opportunity to defer admission again coz my school has warned me that after deferring two times I have to reapply as an applicant the third time (No opportunity to defer the third time).

Canny has even seized my passport that I can't even apply to other countries.Wot kind of life is this

Please I need help!!!

You seem to have a good advantage and a strong chance of getting a study permit approval with all you outlined here. However, You must first secure admission for your intended program. Good a thing you are already thinking ahead.
1.Including your previous Msc in your application can be to ur advantage or not. If you eventually gain admission into the same chemical engineering for the second master, conviencing the VO maybe difficult becos you have one already in that area and have mentioned it.
If you choose to go for a branch in your field or a closely related area in your field which i can see you are opting for, this could fly as you can explain in your SOP your interest in that area and it's significance to you moving forward but this will always be substantiated with previous activity (s) in that area.(Work experience, research).

2. You know what you've been engaging yourself with since you left the job in 2014, You can relate it to your profession or better still, research interest.If you choose not to include your previous msc in your application, all the gaps prior now must be explained and tend towards a need to upgrade academically.
3.Your schoolarship apparently covers pretty much everything and i want to believe it's for the entire duration of your program.But the inconsistencies surrounding remitting of funds for nigerian students on schoolarships have been often seen and i also believe the VO are aware of this, if you can have the agency pay your tuition,accomodation before you apply for your study permit, it should boost your chances.
All the best to you.

I also got a refusal mail 6/01/2017
i will reapply for same program
