OKay, my timeline.

Applied on the 20th of April

Had my biometrics done on the 24th of April

Naso i begin wait...Then got medical request July 4th.

Medical passed update July 6th.

Approval July 9th.


DOCUMENTS SUBMITTED.

Offer letter from the school
My SOP ( I took my time to do this)
Letter of sponsorship from my brother( Well aligned with my SOP)
SOA of sponsor( my brother)
MY CV
Police report

Ladies and gentlemen, that's all i submitted, yes! Just that, not even my school certificate.

So a couple of times, i saw people's applications, their documents and i lost all hope, but one thing is certain, I never forgot calling on GOD, because even the best applications got denied. His GRACE and MERCY definitely showed up for me.

To add also, i was in Canada for a couple of weeks earlier and i had gone for a short program in the same field in the US and i returned promptly.

Even though i submitted my application before i fully got involved here, i really truly appreciate everyone here, the wealth of knowledge and wisdom here cannot be underestimated. God bless you guys!!!

E pain me say i no baf since morning, i for don resume VHS now to drop passport.lol but the place too far.

Please what is the average processing time to have my passport returned back for pickup?


All TRV hopefuls, all the best!

Congrats.. please how were u able to compress all your documents to 4mb,cos am sure the size of all it documents is above 4mb..

Surprisingly, it was only my proof of fund pdf file that was above 4mb. All other files were not, even the one that contained my sop and all my docs. I made good use of my pages. 1 page might contain 2 or 3 docs, all titled seperately.

Meanwhile, i went online to compress the other file. I just googled how to compress pdf file. Something came up, i chose one of the links, and they showed me where to upload the file, i did and the site just compressed my file. I hope this helps.

I think the money in the account is insufficient. Calculate at 300/$. I used a gt bank master card when I did mine and it worked.

My God has done it again oo! Very long post alert!!!

Thanks to all members of this prestigious platform, couldn't have done it better without you guys! @Frankrobbn1 thank you! @jnyuwa thanks for picking all my calls, you were of great help! @mcobex thank you!

Now my timeline guys;

Application submitted: May 29th
Biometrics done and completed: May 30th
I did an upfront medical ooo! Yet medical request gotten on June 29th.
That was where the tension began. My friend had the same issue, she sent an email to London office and got medical passed the next day. I sent mine, nothing happened! I had to send to accra, nairobi, turkey, dubai, lagos, even filled the webform...finally, on July 5th, medical exam passed! Till today, none of these offices has replied my email, I guess the right office just updated the info on my account.

Then today, July 9th: VISA APPROVED!!!
Docs submitted:
-All required IMM forms.
-Almost 2pages sop.
-letter of sponsorship (dad's letter was strong, he said he was keeping the promise he made to me cos I told him during my undergraduate studies o, dat if i made a first class, I would have my masters abroad).
-6month dad's SOA with 8M closing balance.
-reference letter from bank.
-1st academic year tuition fee receipt ($10,300cad).
-dad transferred 2.8M to my acct for living expenses, hence my SOA.
-dad's landed properties (I guess this was my home tie, said I will inherit one of the properties for the future establishment of *** in nigeria, as my long term goal upon return to my home country. Dad also said same in his letter, including that they are expecting my return upon completion of studies).
-dad's CAC docs for his business, i even uploaded a screenshot of the public search of the business name on CAC website, just incase.
-my nysc discharge cert. (April 2018)
-My waec cert
- parents and siblings birth certificate and mine.
- my CV
-transcript
- academic exellence cert showing graduation awards.
- ref letter saying i am a volunteer with ***
- my employment letter showing i am also volunteering with ***
- all my certificates of attendance to public health related conferences and programs (i just guessed this could let them know that i have been involved in the healthcare system in Nigeria).
- police clearance
Then prayer prayer prayer! I dont know of this helped buh I kinda had a good arrangement in my application. Each doc had the title written above it, to make for good recognition. Also this was an ONLINE application, you dont need an agent to do your thing, just grab the neccessary info and do it right!
Thank you once again guys! It will be your turn soon.

Starred.

Congrats sis. The sky is your springboard
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 14 by harde116: 10:35pm On Jul 09, 2018
Not really sure which one worked. But from the first web enquiry, it took roughly a week. I'm tempted to think it came after i send the email, that took about 3days i think.

Please people I need reply to these: I got admitted (conditional) in one of the universities in Quebec for PHD with partial funding. I'm about applying for visa but I've not gotten Quebec Acceptance Certificate (QAC). I also have not paid my tuition fee. I want to know if I can apply for visa without proof of tuition Payment and QAC.

Also, can someone tell me if I can submit my docs at the Canadian embassy in Abuja.

What is the significance of the QAC? Someone please enlighten me.

Good day, please I applied for Student permit on the 17th of May 2018 and I got a refusal on the 4th of July stating that I don't have evidence to prove that I will return to home country after studies because of lack of personal assets and funds. My application was funded by a company that paid all my tuition fee and living expenses for one year. Anyway I want to reapply again because I am supposed to resume by September 2018. Please what can I do, I don't want to lose this admission and I am afraid of how long it will take them to process my application again and do I have to go for biometrics again? How can I fast track this second application. Attached below is the letter from cic
Radiantblessing,

There are more to this refusal of yours, don't be in a hurry to reapply, kindly order for your Gcms note:

Hi everyone, please I need help on wether to reapply for my Canada study permit or not.
I was rejected, so I ordered my casefile. Below are reasons stated for my refusal


1. I have considered PA’s travel history, personal circumstances and family composition, the expenses related to the proposed stude and the reasonableness of undertaking theses studies in Canada. After careful consideration of the information provided, I am not satisfied that proposed studies in Canada makes sense given insufficient information on how proposed studies would improve career prospects to a degree that would offset the costs of studying in Canada instead of pursuing programs available in country of residence. Application refused

2.29yrs of age, single,no apparent travel history, graduated 2016 third party sponsor-uncle not satisfied that the applicant will have access to the funds

Please note that I already paid 8000 cad out of 14,580cad total fee for the 1year course.

School is Fanshawe college-construction mgt.
Sponsor-uncle from mother side...diff surname
Travel experience-Kenya and Dubai
Degree- HND Building,Bsc Quantity surveying

I am considering reapplying but I need sincere insight on what and what to do or what to change in my new application.

Thank you
Dammysk,

The Visa Officer is simply saying that the information (Motivation to study in Canada) you presented in your initial application was insufficient considering the high cost of undertaking a foreign education, when there are available programs offered here in Nigeria at a cheaper rate. What are your career prospects in Nigeria after completion of studies in Canada?, what are the lucrativeness of undertaking such a program in Canada?, why did you choose Canada rather than Nigeria to complete your proposed program? All these should be addressed in your updated SOP. More so, you're expected to establish strong proof of relationship between your mom and your sponsor (Uncle). Include documents like : Marriage certificate, birth certificates, intl passport bio data page, proof of ongoing financial support from uncle etc.. because, the Visa Officer is not satisfied that funds will be accessible by you from your uncle. In your next application, you need to explain extensively that your uncle has paid some part of your tuition fees as a commitment in sponsoring your studies and will do more if the need arises etc....


All the best!

Thanks. Pls I don’t understand how u mean I should apply for her as well? U mean I should find school for her to gain admission? She’s 3 year old and she don’t need study visa now. Was thinking maybe I can just include her name that she’s going with me. pls explain more how to go about this���
