Quick question for the nurses, what course can someone who studied nursing in Nigeria study in Canada, I understand international students are not allowed to go for course, any help will be most appreciated.

I am a nurse with Bsc & RN, unfortunately masters In nursing is not open to international applicants, only certificate courses, so you can do further findings, I have sent mails to schools & they insisted one has to be licensed as a nurse in a province in Canada to be able to opt for masters, not sure the VOs are aware though, yet to get my note though, so I can't say if I was refused based on choosing certificate course.

Hello house, i just joined this forum, am about applying for a study permit and my question is, do I have to submit my original undergraduate transcript direct to the embassy? Or should I attach a photocopy to my application documents?. Thanks

Photocopy will do, some people don't even include their transcript. To those who don't have transcript copy let them just submit photocopy of their certificate and it will be accepted

Hello fam, this is my question pls don’t refer me to google. I graduated from an Indian university this year note with their highest grade in which I don’t know how to convert to what you guys sometimes do, so the confusion is coming from did I need to take all this English exam since my result is already in English and also have some recommendations to back it up I was taught in English cause I am planning to put in for masters in computer science... I also want a recommendation for an average paying school which maybe I can get funding... thanks in anticipation���

Some schools waive the proof of english language while some don't, so try to look for schools that doesn't ask for the proof and you will be good to go. I think university of Saskatchewan waives that.

Austinpee...boss! It's not application that I was asked to send, the person helping me to request my note said file number which I think it's supposed to be on the correspondence letter which wasn't uploaded.

I get. File number is the same thing as application number. There will be no 'FILE' number written on the correspondence letter. It will be the same UCI and Application number on your account that will be quoted on the letter. So order your GCMS file with the application number on your account which should start with S.................., It is the same thing.

abestine:

I applied on 5th of may, 2017, got medical mail on 29th of August after serious prayer and mail to CIC, honourable etc... Lol

Did medicals on 30th of August, medicals passed and updated on 3rd of September

You should hear from them before the end of this week or next week at most. But be prepared to request for another offer letter from your school cos the on eyou applied with might have expired when cic will want to approve your application (most offer letter expires a day after resumption)

@Austinepee4 bro how's everything going so far?

Good day House,

Please who has done medical test at Prime Medical consultants in PH? How fast are they in sending one's result to CIC and how much do they charge for the medical test?

Thanks for your prompt response.

Amen, I have contacted my school and was told to let them know if I didn't get the visa before on the 6th, which is today so they can defer my admission to winter. I have already mail my departmental postgraduate coordinator, waiting to hear from her soon.

Thanks for the word of encouragement... Really appreciate

Hi guys, anyone with a clue of what's going on with my application. I made an online application, submitted on the 4th, normally study permit fee and biometric fee is together so you pay both before submitting but in my case only study permit fee was on there, no biometric fee. I've called vfs I was told I can't make payment at there office if I applied online. What do I do guys? Anyone with the same issue ?

Hi gurus . Please does anyone have any idea what this means ??. I still don't know what the final decision is

Good day my people! Please who can help with a cheap flight o cos ds prices na wa?
Please help with a link where I can buy. Thankx

I think it's a technical problem. Try and lodge a complaint by clicking on "report a technical issue" button

Check the correspondence below to see if there's another letter after the medicals sent, if none then complain through technical tab

When did you apply?

Check if the site you opened is vfs Canada and not another vfs, the reason why I said that is that, it happened to me few weeks ago, only to discover I was checking vfs south Africa... Lol.

.

Gurus in the house, is it possible for study visa to be issued after school resumption date if the date of school registration expiration is still a further date, without embassy requesting for new offer letter?

Please house, hope it isn't too late to submit visa application for January intake by next week?

Austinpee4:

Baba J! This statement as emboldened is actually misleading. Transcript of all post-secondary education is a REQUIREMENT for visa processing as requested by the visa office (LAGOS) which serves Nigeria even though study permits are largely processed in Accra. Some people may have gotten their study permit approved without submitting but it is REQUIRED. I'd rather people follow the instruction of the visa office than feign ignorance to it.

I have seen a GCMS note where an officer made reference to an applicant's performance in previous study and doubted if applicant would be able to withstand the rigorous academic pressure in Canada. So YES, they review all submitted documents. As a matter of fact, a good transcript can sell an applicant to the VO as a good and genuine student.

It is not misleading man. If it's required CIC will state clearly and unequivocally to include your TRANSRIPTS. It doesn't state so online on CIC website, only the paper route states that at VAC or some place as a guideline. My point is clearly supported by the fact that many people get their visas without submitting a transcript. Many things are there to suffice that one is a genuine student, not transcripts alone. That said, It is at the individual's discretion whether they want to submit a transcript or their certificate of graduation or both. Everyone has to decide for themselves what maximizes their visa obtaining capacities. Maybe if the guy with less stellar performance never included his transcripts, the VO wouldn't have used it against him to deny him visa.
