Thank you and God bless you!!! i really appreciate this!

Amen! You're welcome. Hope all goes well for us all

1. Yes the VO will because that is what it is. He is assisting financially so it’s a cosponsorship situation.
2. No it will not. It’s okay to have more than one sponsor.
3. Yes it is perfectly fine
4. Well, since he is your cosponsor he is expected to provide all of those.

P.S I think ‘Letter of Financial Support’ and ‘Letter of Sponsorship’ are one and the same thing.
Also, I think he will have to show commitment either by paying part or all of your tuition fees or sending CAD10,000 to an account of yours for your one year living expenses.

I hope this helps. The answer provided is from the little I know and have read on this forum they are open to corrections.

Best regards.

..for second opinion(s) please advice!
My Father is the sole sponsor, but his friend(our family friend) has pledged to assist me with some support funds per year for the duration of my studies but the funds would be made available to me on monthly basis. He's also willing to write a "Letter of Financial Support(not a letter of sponsorship)." My question(s)

1. Will the VO see this as a co-sponsorship situation
2. ‎Will this create/cause harm to my app
3. ‎Is it okay for him to support the "Letter of Financial Support" with an "affidavit"
4. ‎He is willing to lend me is bank statement, business CAC, Property document etc to prove his commitment, is this too much from someone who is not my sponsor

BTW he can't transfer the funds to me at once but will be able to give me the funds monthly upon divide for a year

Mr Man, if you do not know what to say, just keep mute please and stop misleading people. You are not a VO, so what gives you the right to say its difficult for college applicants to get Visa. Or is it written on the Canadian site that " College Applicants will find it difficult to get Visa". Like I always say, the fastest TRV Approval(that applied in Nigeria) I have seen on this thread (Part 12 or 13) was a PGD applicant, he got his TRV in 20 days. So dont come here and start misleading people that its difficult to get Visa with College application. The same way PGD applicants get refused is the same way Masters Applicant get refused. The most important thing to do as an applicant is to package ur application well(Coupled with prayers) with a convincing SOP and submit all required documents. So please do not discourage the PGD/PGC applciants here, cos thees people still get their TRV approved well just as Masters applicants. Peace

Hello,

1) no one is claiming to be a VO here. It is just an advice. Everyone here is entitled to give his or her own opinion.
2) the advice was based on recent trends
3) you can't be comparing thread 12 and 13 with the current thread. Things have changed rapidly. Approval rate has reduced and refusal rate has increased.

P.S all applications need prayers and good SOP.

I conclude that it's getting difficult for college applicant to get a trv from Nigeria than master's applicant. This is based on recent trends.

If u can't advice the guy that asked the question then don't just discard any advice someone else is giving. I can see u didn't even respond to the guy.

Please, i need help on who can put me through as I'm planning of re-applying...

Thanks

If I may advice u, bro, pls get your GCMS note first. This will enable you know what area(s) to tackle in your application.

Else, if u can't wait for GCMS, share what you submitted on the thread, people will advice you further.

Thank You.

Hello, i just wanted to add that if anyone needs help finding accomodation and you coming to calgary . You can contact me. Il be willing to assist you.

Happy new month and independence to my fellow brothers and sisters in the struggle to make Nigeria great again.
It is my prayer that in this new month our applications shall witness divine favour and turnaround in Jesus Name.
If you are applying for Winter, to be on the safe side apply now don't wait till ending on October, as the processing time is likely to increase to 14 weeks this month. It shall end in praises

@Makano what's the latest, any update on maintenance this week?

All I can say is, I have followed the thread...each approved persons wen dy share their profile, it's masters mostly few are PGDs..but for rejected, it's masters I see more..not PGDs except one current person dat just recently got rejected...but wen u look at the reasons for being rejected..its not cos of masters or PGD..its cos of SOPs...not Wat education status u are going for..student visa application is student visa application...VOs don't target any particular group of applicants if u are masters or PGD..its your SOPs that matters here... am a PGD applicant (Algonquin college) and I applied online cos my friends who are PGDs got theirs with no stress..so it's just to have a good and convincing SOP making sure all loop holes are well covered and back up documents to support them are in there and backing it up with prayers...Finish...so if u are a PGD applicant..no fear, do what you are meant to do and add God in it..u are good to go...Peace

Pls is anyone here going to Uotawwa or Carleton University for Winter 2019?

Pls PM me for accommodation talks.

Thank You.

jandj:


No 1) why college? Why not a university? I will tell u d truth bro.. study permit is getting difficult day by day for college applicants. Although admission might be easier than a university, study permit is harder to get for a college applicant than a university applicant.

No 2) if you are taking your wife along, pls let the money for your tuition + your upkeep-10000 cad + her upkeep- 10000cad be in your account. The VO will know by this that you have access to the fund.

God bless you sir for your inputs. However, I beg to disagree. I applied to a college with a 2:1 degree and got my visa. I think God Almighty, a good and convincing SOP and of cause strong financial statement will do the magic.

Although if you have a 2:1 your first option should be a university except you have a good reason for applying to a college.

I start in January and I am thinking of changing to masters if possible.

thanks everyone. I really appreciate. I also need your opinion on whether to re-apply immediately or wait a little. I have received conflicting advice. please which is best for me: to re-apply immediately or wait?

Good day everyone, please can anyone help with names of good colleges for January 2019 programs. I also applied since 5th of July and nothing yet. Is there anything I can do? Thank you

Same as usual, or is there anything different in this reply. Cus I complained my application is in its 10th week. Today makes it exactly 11wks since my Biometrics, cus that's when I count from.

Oga I no dey work for CIC oo, . But no update this week. That doesnt stop the good news coming this week tho.. October shall be a great month of approvals to those that believe. Peace

McGill was on my neck. Deferring was not an option, becos I had already deferred from Fall 2017 to Fall 2018, so I could not defer any longer. I was given an ultimate deadline of 25th september by McGill, luckily, passport request came on the deadline. I kept sending mails and webforms to Lagos, Accra, Nairobi, Abu Dhabi. I even sent to Canada and Sydney offices...lool. Abu Dhabi and Sydney offices replied, saying my application is not being processed at their office but in London. From that day, London office started feeling me...an average of three mails and webforms every day morning, afternoon and night. In fact, my approval came in when I typing yet another mail to the London office.

During the waiting period, prayer was very helpful. I prayed my rosary, yes I am Catholic, like I have never done before. I also visited the Blessed Sacrament. Canada pple sabi humble person eeh!!!

For TRV hopefuls, hang in there. God go do am very soon.

Man it depends on so many factors. Processing time from cac aside, I’ll say two months if it’s a solid application even though mine was processed in less than 5weeks. Good luck!

Yes. Mr google knows. Kindly contact him, he will give u all the answers u need. Peace

I will go for fulltime. As a fulltime student you are allowed to work for 20 hrs weekly. This can inly help you with your living expenses but cant pay your tuition fees. However in summer / if you are not in session during summer you can work more hours or get as many job as you like and you wont be going againts the condition of your study permit. . After your study permit you can apply for a post grad permit which you can work for as long as you want. Hope this helps

I also believe you have a good chance getting your visa as a fulltime student than a part time student.
