Canada is not running away but the scholarship is an opportunity that can maximized now. Ain't spending a dime in the UK rather get paid for studying. One stone to kill two birds

Hello bro, congrats on your Canada student visa and your fully funded scholarship for study in UK. what I am about to say might not be a popular opinion on here, I would say it regardless. We need balanced inputs before making life decisions.

Please DO NOT consider money alone, always think long term.

You may pay money for your studies in Canada but the prospect of getting a guaranteed 3 years post study visa for an 18 months program in Canada with the option of getting a PERMANENT RESIDENCY, in my opinion, should not be overlooked just because you got a fully funded scholarship in Uk with no guarantee of a job even with a good course and school. Whatever money you spend on fees in Canada for your masters, you will make that money within 16 months of work once done with your masters.

This has nothing to do with running away from Nigeria as someone posited above, it is about getting a foreign experience.

Consider both options, think carefully and I wish you all the best. The choice is yours

UK is a fantastic place to study. If UK had post study visa, I will recommend ahead of any place in the world.

P.S If you already have a job waiting for you or a back up plan (probably business) after studies in Nigeria, please go to UK (take advantage of the scholarship) and forget Canada.

Thanks for your concern. How about going to Canada after my studies in the UK? That's why I said Canada is not running anywhere; planning to defer my admission at my school in Canada by one year after the issuance of my UK Visa. I totally agree with your view points which I understood perfectly.

Sounds like a good idea a lot of people come to Uk just to crossover. But i think the program you would go for in Canada afterwards, should be a different course or at a higher level than the one in the Uk. To be frank i may want to go to canada straight to minimize the risk of HAVING TO GO BACK TO NAIJ. But the scholarship offer hmmm. Just think about it very well.

Fantastic idea, God will perfect your plans.

Quick question, will your TRV (issued in 2018) be valid and acceptable till the new deferred fall 2019 admission date at POE or you will need to apply for another TRV while in the UK?

Please house, i need someone to share more light on this. I just did my TB test and my question is should I submit my application before the money in my account reaches 28days or it has to be after the money sits there for 28days before I would have to submit my application? Please I need an answer from someone. Thanks!

Your money must hit 28 working days in you r account then print it the next day for application

Not necessarily, hubby was interviewed on the 11th of July in Abuja (standard) and he just received email this afternoon 1st Aug. that his passport is with Courier. Exactly 15 days.. We hope for good news

Hubby passport received on Monday 6th and entry to the UK approved for btw 24th Aug to 24th Sept. He's to pick up his Visa at his school's Immigration Dept. Thank God we took a leap of faith and booked Emirates @ N192,000 to Birmingham on the 18th of Sept.

Best of luck to all those waiting
Thanks to all the guys and babies who make this group educative

Thanks so much for this information! God bless!

Most definitely. According to what CIC stated on my letter of introduction; I must enter Canada by 2020-10-31 ,which is exactly the last day my TRV will expire. I don't need to reapply for a new TRV rather show a new admission letter at POE. You know TRV is different from study permit and its only issued at POE.

Thanks for your concern

Not necessarily a different course rather higher level of degree in order to avoid being refused TRV based on purpose of visit. This can be well tackled with a well drafted SOP stating convincing reasons for going to such level of degree. But my case is different because I've passed through the hurdles of obtaining TRV.

I'm after my career growth than the country. My sole aim of going to Canada is to study, research and advance my career which UK will offer better.

Please, how does UK count the 15days standard processing times? Is weekend inclusive or strictly working days (Monday-Friday)?

Many thanks

Good decision.

To your other question above, it is 15 working days. All the best.

UK used to be the number one destination for students. Lets hope they fix the whole post study thingy. Because most people will not want to return home just like that after school, especially if you don’t have a job waiting for you here or after experiencing life in the UK. Who wants to return to a country that is not working. Fingers crossed on post study.

I thought the requirement for the commonwealth Scholarship is that you must return to your home country for a given period. Are you allowed to go to Canada immediately after schooling in the UK?

Congratulations and so happy for you

Dependants?
You mean those you intend to travel with?
Are you applying for a T4 visa?


Dependants:
1. Spouse (legal partner)
2. Children (under 18)


Siblings, parents are NOT dependants (in this case)

Parents are dependants if you give them money for survival but the best is to leave it at spouse and children

That's great! I envy you. You get the best of both worlds .... I wish you the very best. I don't mind if you send me a link to scholarship programme please :-)

For dependant visa ,hubby submitted the application and forgot to put my reference number what's the implication and also why didn't we have same time for our biometric

I think you need to fully understand, (and appreciate) the context.
Parents as NOT dependants on the context of T4 application.

mimilyrics:
You're supposed to book an appointment before paying the fees because the fees are subject to ForEx fluctuations.
Depending on your location, send a mail to iomlagosmedicalbooking@iom.int or iomabujamedicalbooking@iom.int with your preferred test date.
You'll be sent a confirmation of appointment with a pdf document (revised information sheet) which will have the current amount charged for TB tests, their address, test Info amongst other info.
Check to confirm that the amount you paid is the same as the current TB test cost that's contained in the document.
NOTE: The TB test cost was revised upwards to N54,000 in March and was still N54,000 in June but it's always safer to confirm the test fees from IOM before paying.
If the test has been increased from N54,000, all you need to do is to ensure that you pay the difference before your appointment and go along with the 2 payment tellers/evidence. If not, you're good to go.
Ensure that you go with your travel passport on your test date.

Thank you so much. I did the test and got the result same day.
