I really do not understand what could be happening with my application. Could I still be refused after getting medical mail and also mail for proof of funds? Cos I dnt seem to understand why its taking long for a decision to be made on my application... With the way peeps are been rejected dey fear me o

Be optimistic bro and pray harder.
Any outcome is watz gonna be.
God's grace ,his speed and favour rain on our applications.

Hello guys, after a refusal mail from IRCC today.
I decided to message my department @usask about the visa refusal and that I intend to reapply, I asked them if I can defer my admission and funding till Jan 2018 resumption, the department then told me that if my supervisor will accept that, they will accept also and they will reprint my offer letter and funding letter with new date for Jan 2018 entry and fortunately for me, my supervisor ACCEPTED!

what do you guys think?
Defer or reapply again for September 2017 visa?
Please I need ur contributions guys

I don't think so. That Proof of funds mail is mostly for applicants with third party sponsorship.

Urz is coming soon.

Thanks to you, my guy.

Peace.

Eraytee:


This should clarify it

Eraytee, please I applied for aircraft maintenance engineering at SAIT. My admission is for fall 2017, but I have not been offered admission; my status still reads waitlisted. What do you think.

Team16:
If you have your TRV and you are coming to UNB this fall, feel free to contact me for guidance.

Boss

I will be at UNB this fall. I have sent you a pm. Thanks

I've replied your pm.

Have you been called to the Nigerian Bar ? If so, then that your proposed program is a no no. It's raises a red flag already. Paralegal only provide auxiliary services to lawyers. If you're already a lawyer, no VO would see the sense in pursuing a career in paralegal when you already have a career in the legal profession. This move will not be considered an academic or a professional progression. If you'd ask me, it's technically a regression. A VO would want to know if your proposed program will advance your career. Except you are not yet a lawyer, then your application with this program might be an exercise in futility more particularly since you already possess an llm. Pls be properly guided.

However, please seek comprehensive opinions about this before you take further steps.

Kind regards.

I am not yet called to bar in Nigeria or anywhere else that the main reason I did not think of considering express entry as well because of work experience. @osemigho @yemdogg

Osemigho:


Thought I advise you and any other with profile like yours to join express entry thread.

While many are refused here, many are getting their PRs there. Go to where you have higher chance - Express entry.

When you get your PR, you can go back to any school, even their high school, if that is what you truly desire.

@osemigho I am not yet called to bar in Nigeria or anywhere else. I am just a fresh Masters graduate and don't have a year work experience that would fetch me more marks for the express entry that y. What do u suggest I do pls?

Thank you all for your time.

Hello everyone.....I'm back again....

It says, if your fall and remain down, your are a failure.... But when you fall and get back on your feet, you will surely succeed.

So I'm back up......and here to assist as usual.

How long will it take before I could go to VFS to collect my passport?

To all the TRV hopefuls, I wish you all the best.

Baba nla 1 present sir.

It's quite sad to see such profile being delayed, however I think the questions which you highlighted can help to ascertain the cause.

In addition, @Abdon01:

How much was the closing balance of your brother's SOA, and does he have other dependants?

Secondly, did you state the long term benefit of having an M.Sc in mathematics in your SOP. And like @thesoj mentioned, what have you been involved in between your NYSC and now. Is there any correlation with what you intend achieving after the M.Sc?

Did you highlight specific topics in your M.Sc that can be applied back home to add direct economic value to a particular course?

In all, I think you should focus on the financials and your SOP. Although you got a scholarship, you still need to have/proof good home tie or at least an alternative financial buffer.

These are my views though.

thesoj:


Wow... sorry for the delay. As @victory2017 said, someone with your profile has a high chance of approval. What's your profile?

When did you finish BSc and NYSC? What have you been doing since then? What's your work experience? Etc. Also, could you give a two-sentence summary of what
you wrote in your SOP? I'm just trying to figure out why you got refused so that we can avoid same next time.

@osemigho @kalohenic @yemdogg @austinpee abeg come to the rescue.

Thanks bro.
Will work on my SOA and sponsor's acct balance

I just collected my passport from VSF today and the purpose of my denial was travel history and purpose of traveling which I have already addressed before now because that's was the same reasons they gave the first time I applied . Now a friend is advising me to review my application or appeal by writing to CIC . Please Gurus hear should help on what to do because I feel the whole world is falling on me now as I type this now. Thanks

Thank God today has ended. So much delay pressure on this thread for the week. At least I can now sleep and enjoy the next 10 hours without CIC pressure.

I declare the remaining days of this week a success for everyone of us.

You just have to be strong to tackle this. This is a problem and not the end of the world.

Appealing to CIC how? I guess the Gurus will advice you to order for GCM notes to be able to see the backend reason of the Visa Officer. That way you would be able to tackle, reapply and fire.

I know the feeling....I tasted it just yesterday. Be strong and keep moving on.....

The Lord is our strenght.

Please I need ur contributions guys

@ Abdon if l may suggest, owing to d fact dt ur funding is still intact l think u shd defer d admission so as to hv enough time to work wt d gurus to perfect ur app ( see them showing much love & willing to assist - don't take dt for granted).

On d other hand, if u think your sponsor can come up wt say #5m thereabout in his soa & you too can boost small. Also do constructive SOP as advised. You may dive in b4 d month runs out.

But all d same, best is still deferment. January is not far oo. And u can submit your reapplication in August or September u know at least 5 months (Dec. is full of holidays).

Wish you all d best.

Someone pls help me. How can I write IRCC regarding my online application since April 28, 2017.

The status has been on background check with only biometric completed same way since 1st week of May after biometrics at vfs lagos.

I don't think everything is ok or could they have forgotten my application? Pls guide, my school has started sending me email regarding registration.

Your Application was not forgotten it's the Background Check that's causing the delay. IRCC can't do anything about it if it's at the Security Check Stage, which I am almost certain it is.

They will need to get a response from CSIS before updating your application.

Once your Background check is completed they will update your status and give you final decision that same day or the next

@ PendD

Your application is still within processing time, thus you won't get a response if you send the mail.
It will be so till you get an update

maziude:


Boss, are you a citizen of cameroun or a legal resident there? It is not about permanent residency, i am talking about legal residency like study, work.
Moreover,if it works the way you are thinking now, how many people will still be applying to accra?

I still say this, apply in Nigeria, there is more things to worry about other than processing times.

However, you can go ahead with your plan. Keep us updated when it works.

Exactly a week after submission of my application, I was rejected on the ground of status in country of residence despite stating expressly in my document and sop that I am not resident in the uk and attaching a copy of my visa page which is valid until next year. I went further by attaching a scanned copy of my return ticket. I still like to know the reason for my the refusal besides the generic one stated in the letter, thus I might apply for a gcms. Any one with a link on how to apply for it? I will reapply upon my return to Nigeria since my resumption date is in January. Glad I undertook this adventure of discovery, this issue is not officially put to bed. Be advised, apply in the visa office recommended for your region.

Yours sincerely,
Sacrificial Lamb.
