Paying School fees before Visa application isnt necessary, as we have seen on this forum of peeps that got refused despite paying their full school fess, and some got approved. So its left to you. Buh showing your Sponsor's statement of account is very compulsory, you can also add yours as the applicant. Good luck

I'll like to first apologize to people who may get angry that the alot of repetitive questions are being asked. I tried my best to get information from old threads and the CIC website.

This is my first time applying for a Canadian study permit. Got an admission to humber college for a graduate program in project management slated for the winter program January 2019. I have an MBA from Ahmadu Bello Zaria, and b.sc in banking and finance. I have been working for almost 3 years in customer care for a telecommunications company. That's for that.

So far, I realised one can apply online and just upload required documents. I hope it's ok to take pictures of documents and upload.

For clarification, required documents to upload online are, acceptance letter from university, birth certificate, police clearance (yet to be called to pick this up), upfront medical clearance (booked appointment date at prime medical is 31/07/2018), SOA from sponsor plus letter of introduction, plus canadian citizenship page of sponsor, employment letter and payslip of sponsor, letter of introduction from work place plus 6months payslip (learnt payslip not important though), employment letter, Nigerian passport (data page), proof of first semester tuition payment.

One last question, I guess visa application fee is paid immediately after application online, and later on the visa office calls for biometrics

Please once again, I apologise for taking us back

Family ties
Your family tie is a little issue which you have to explain well by drawing more ties to Nigeria and explain why you must come back home. That was one reason for paddy's rejection.

Don't take pictures, scan.

Proof of financial establishment
What about your own SOA? Your properties.

I have SOA and treasury bills, but I thought SOA of sponsor was more important as mine wasn't sufficient enough. Besides, I have no properties for now.

You will have to scanned all documents....firstly you will upload imm forms 1294E...family information form...and temporary visitor form....then there is a place they wrote..
Client information were you will upload your SOP....BSC certificate etc. ...then you still upload....sponsored financial document with your own all together...and there after your data page of passport separately...and passport photograph...

What is imm forms 1294E...family information form...and temporary visitor form? Since I'm not going with any family members and I'm single, is family information necessary?

There's no difference between taking pics and scanning. Some phone cameras can do better job than best scanners

Brother, they are simply not the same. It may look clear when snapped, but you should be aware that if it will be printed it will be of very poor quality.

Hello,
Did you link your paper application online? If you did, was it immediately after you submitted you were able to link it? How long does it take after submission before you can link it online?

Good morning gurus, please when can one start the count down for processing time. On cic website it says "from the day we receive your application" but I read a thread here that says after biometric is done.

It's past 9weeks already. Aren't you thinking about sending CIC a case specific mail? Was it an online application? If online, when did you complete your biometrics requirements?

Once it's 9 weeks, I will proceed. There are quite a lot of us that haven't received updates I believe.

Yes it does. But a friend was denied visa like that because of personal financial establishment. So add another sponsor say 2 persons e.g. an uncle (who stands to say I know this dude has a scholarship but I will support him with this amount of money). Show that you've got some cash in your account and ties back home.

In all you should have sponsorship of like twice the value of tuition + 10,000CAD per yera
