Am interested in this aspect, I knw funds available shud b one year tuition plus CAD10000

what is other??

michV:
I don't buy the idea of a company sponsoring you.As you are an employee of a company not own by you father/mother/parents/wife/hubby, a VO sees such money in a company account for the running their businesses/paying of staffs and other needs of the company and not for your education. A company is a profit making business not spending their profits/funds in sponsoring a staff for long term programs. seminars, conferences can be sponsored by an employer but not for 1/2yrs study except on legalized funded scholarship programs.

also @penitential made vital points too

Other means miscellaneous funds and it's not compulsory to fill unless it is also written on your admission letter or you explictly have divided your funds in all aspect and want to state it.
The part with the esterisk (*) on the form is compulsory and must be filled. The main thing is that the funds available for your stay is proportionate to the funds available in a SOA or is equivalent to proof of funds transferred to canada or any other financial means.

Having read lots of post lately about funds and sponsorship, pls indulge me to make these points.

1. Anybody can choose to sponsor you but you stand a better chance with a 3rd party/company sponsorship when they have commited funds to your study as well as proven relationship to you. The sponsorship letters should ONLY tell officers where the funds is coming from and why they decided to sponsor you. Anything other than that will leave alot of questions in a visa officer's minds that your supporting documents/case must answer to. If you can satisfy these questions then by all means, use them.

2. Funds to be filled in the application form should be for one year. You must also show means of funds for the second year if your program is more than a year. Also,if you are self sponsored and have all the funds for the duration of your program( 1or 2 years) you can fill the equivalent in the available funds section.

3.Endeavour to use an affidavit of sponsorship if you are using a 3rd party sponsorship. Relatives and family members are mostly reliable sponsors because there is some kind of blood connection and your overall academic pursuit will bring some advantage or pride to them when they sponsor you. The overall interest of a person willingly sponsoring you must somehow be seen in your application. People put their money where their heart or interest is.

4. Make sure you don't submit a statement of account that doesn't have traceable source(s) of accumulated funds. The 6 months SOA required by CIC is most LIKELY to quantify and ascertain how funds available was accumulated and if funds will be generated for subsequent year once program is more than a year.

5.You and your sponsor(s) should not play smart about making funds available just to get the VISA. CIC requirements of having funds for tuition and living expenses in LIQUID form for a year is standard. Your funds available must meet this requirement to get your study permit approved.

6. After your purpose of visit is in-check and convincing, the next most important thing is the funds for your study. You must convince officers that indeed, you will have the funds that you have declared.This is really IMPORTANT. People who get refused a study permit even when the have huge amount of funds to show didn't meet other requirement of a study permit and PURPOSE OF VISIT is usually and often time the main issue.

Finally, Choose programs and school you and your sponsor can afford. It is one thing to be admitted to a program and it is another to prove to canadian immigration officers that you can meet the challenges of studying in canada without a recourse to their government in whatsoever capacity. They want to make sure they discourage the idea of you working to fund your studies as the expect international students to invest funds in their economy while they make it very attractive to foreign students. It's a give and take situation.

All the best to the hopefuls.

Ok, when did you submit your app?

Austinpee4:

Fill the tuition fees as written on your admission letter while the funds available should be the cummulative of your tuition, living expenses and miscellaneous funds for one year. Input the figure appropriately.

CIC requirements of having funds for tuition and living expenses in LIQUID form for a year is standard as stipulated in the IRCC/IRP act. Your funds available must meet this requirement either through a well built statement of account showing funds available,loan facility,bank draft in convertible currency or schoolarship award, etc to get your study permit approved.

6. After your purpose of visit is in-check and convincing, the next most important thing is the funds for your study. You must convince officers that indeed, you will have the funds that you have declared.This is really IMPORTANT.

They want to make sure they discourage the idea of you working to fund your studies as the expect international students to invest funds in their economy while they make same economy very attractive to foreign students with good incentives. It's a give and take situation.

All the best to the hopefuls.

Police Clearance Certificate.
Processing Fee... Unfortunately is not fixed but should be around 5k.
You will need passport photos and fingerprints.
Depending on your location, it could be processed at police Area HQs.... Alagbon as in the case of Lagos.

Hello House,

Please I am about to submit my application for student visa and the company that is sponsoring me want to know who will the Canada embassy contact for verification, is it the person who signed the sponsorship letter or the company HR maybe through the website or something. The head of finance signed the sponsorship letter with his email address and contact written on it.

Please it's very urgent becos they wnt to make all channels available for confirmation.

Osemigho:


Go to few pages back and read to save yourself some potential stress.

obaxlove:


I have done that but I can't find anything related pls. What info do u have?

obaxlove:
It's actually a company that is sponsoring me not an individual. I have the sponsorship letter with the finance head details but FH is just curious on who will be contacted. Is he the one that will be contacted since his details are on the letter or the company head of HR.

Folaroyal:

Pls also check my recent post above... It may help further!
I still wonder why they are curious!!??
And again... Do you work in this company?... Is it owned by your relative who is the sole signatory!... If not.. Boss, it wont work!
Regards
