Gurus in the house your help is needed. I applied 02/05/17 through paper route and since then I have tried linking my application online but it's always showing "based on the information you entered, we find no applications". Am I not doing it the right way?

5. My husband has a registered company, has a job and presently has over #2million in his personal account. A newly built house. Has traveled to South Africa and Uk. Had been denied visa to the US before going to the Uk. Has an aged mum. He wants to go for vacation, does he need an invitation or he can go ahead with it? What are his chances?
Prisscindy:


I did not overstay in the UK, left before my student visa expired and spent one month when I went for my graduation this year with my baby.
I don't want to leave my 14months old so I was thinking I should apply with him and my nephew. My husband can apply separately at least. I'm on the adoption process. It's quite expensive and stressful but I think that's the only way out.
As for the schools, I have sent to lecturers from many universities, I have gone as far as calling them after the emails.
MSc in Disability Studies is an interdisciplinary course, students from the sciences go for it. I don't want to stay out of education so my decision. This year is the only one I haven't been involved in academics since I was born.
My husband will declare that he overstayed with the following reasons:
he just got married and his wife was pregnant and would not have anyone to help during pregnancy, labour and after. He left two weeks after I put to bed. Just asking if that won't be a problem for him.

Ma'am, I'm also not a guru but since @maziude have mentioned me and given me an opportunity to rub shoulders with people like him, here is what i think.


For your question no.5

Your husband appears to have good hometies and travel history which is an advantage for him. Going for a vacation would require him applying for a visiting visa and meeting all the requirements for it. This will include but not limited to a letter explaining his purpose of visit, invitation letter(if he is being hosted by somebody in canada) sufficient funds for stay, flights and hotel reservation(most times, flight and hotel reservation are visiting visa application requirement). His chances will be like everybody that have his kind of profile. The main thing will be to convince officers that he indeed will stay temporary and return after the stay. Find this link for more info http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/5256ETOC.asp


To your response post,
Your study permit application form will have questions for you directly and not for your husband. So if you did not overstay a previous visa, was refused a visa or permit, answer appropriately. Also advice your husband that should he eventually apply for a visa to canada, he SHOULD NOT conceal any prior immigration history/case. If he explains what happened convincingly, i don't think it will be a problem. They will still find out what happened, so it will be better he disclose everything to give credibility to his personality. This is really important especially with canada.

If you have sufficient funds, can convince officers that your 14 months old baby and nephew going to canada with you would not affect your primary purpose which is to study, then you can apply alongside them. Kindly note that convincing a VO would involve you showing additional funds and explaning pre-arrangement to have both minors looked after why you indulge in your study. However you decide to do this, it must be extremely convincing.


The elephant in this whole plan is how you will prove to the visa officer that your program in disability studies is actually what you need and what would advance you in your career/profession. The onus and burden will really be on you to convincingly put this before them in a cogent way. If you do not and with all the formation regarding travelling with your kid and nephew, things may work against you. You may be seen as a migrant rather than a bonafide student who intend to complete study and depart at end of stay.

So while you wait for the offer of admission, i'll suggest you begin to work around startegies that will sell your case very well to the officer. It is not IMPOSSIBLE, but the ball will be in your court to do a very good job.

Regards ma'am.

brothers and sisters in canny already please what are the booming graduate health care programs excluding nursing one can choose with job opportunities and good pay over there would'nt want to take off the little we have and spend it on programs without relevance or job offers.

PGD or Msc public health
Msc public health management
Msc Health economics
Mba with focus on health (for people in health)

There are more jobs than graduates in these fields and the pay is good. You can also get jobs in other countries in future.

No. Awards like Vanier and Trudeau are actually meant to recruit best minds into Canada. In fact, I have read somewhere that their beneficiaries enjoy some preferential treatment in PR application, but can't remember the source again.

The Canadian award that I think carry this tag "you must return to home country" is IDRC award for internationals. However, I am not sure about it.

However, you are right that all scholarships should be well researched before applying or accepting it.

Therefore, all phd applicants should contact their supervisors and department for them to be nominated for vanier and Trudeau. Good luck.
Thanks for the clarity.... Thanks too @markab

Good day house.

This is my first post here, I have tried to read through earlier pages of this thread, you'll have been doing a great job here.

I need clarification to ascertain if I can apply for EE. Below is my profile:

I am 29 years old and single

I recently got study permit for a two years master's program (Control Systems) at University of Alberta in Canada to commence 5th of September 2017.

I am currently working in a multinational manufacturing company here in Nigeria and recently got an outstanding appraisal report that sees my pay upto NGN 550K monthly.

I have four years experience in the field of Control Systems (Automation Engineer and Instrumentation Engineer in two household name multinational firms).

If I go for the masters I would sponsor myself, and the cost is quite high. But with a PR the cost would drastically reduce.

Now the questions:

Is it possible to start the application for EE entry while I am already in Canada? (As I plan to get my transcript sent to WES before leaving for the masters program)

would you advise based on the experience of those already in Canada, I quit my job for the masters with the hope of securing a PR and good job over there?........CC @Mazuide,Austinpee4,Osemigho, Just wise and the full house. Please my friend needs advice on this.actually he posted it on EE thread. I brought it here for advice

Did you get a mail when they passed your medical online. I am tired of checking my profile monitoring and thinking they won't email me when they update my medical. Pls reply mine is officially 11 weeks today.
I applied 28 April online...no update. Medical still reads u don't need a medical...we will write you if this changes. Eligibility reads, we will write you when we start.

After you have linked your application online, you won't get mails again. You have to check your messages online. This is CIC standard. culled from their website.

I just found a beautiful preface from a thesis submitted for Msc in Disability Studies by a pharmacist. Her topic was "Perspectives on the Use of Medications in Aging Population". It was submitted at the University of Manitoba where I'm awaiting an admission. I can use that as a template.

For my nephew, can I just apply and say he's my nephew and I'm responsible for him, or adopt him first?

Baba, i know similar case concerning 'dual intent' was discussed here recently.
Yes, it is possible to apply for PR through the various ways as a student in canada.
The applicant MUST meet the requirements of the EE application which is usually non-dependent on the temporary resident status. IRCC have clarified this and provided useful guidiance for people seeking such intent.

I can't say if you can use it or not. The issue of plagiarism is a serious offence dealing with canadians. So if you decided to use it, ensure you make appropraite reference to the original owner of the work.

Will adopting him make you feel more responsible for him and feel better? If so, fine. It's totally up to you. The visa officers will be more interested in the welfare and responsibility for the individual you include as a dependant. So which ever works for you, ensure you back up all claims with documentary evidence.

Going with dependents require more cash in your SOA. Ie; If your yearly upkeep is C$10,000, plus two dependents will require more than that and you MUST show proof of financial capability that will be enough for you and your dependents.

Lol, I just concluded a project for my msc in the uk. I should know better than to plagarise someone else's work. The write up gave me a clearer view of the relationship between my previous degrees and the intended one. And by the way, I was talking about how to convince the VO with the relationship Thanks for the back up.
