Medical was done on 10th December and medical updated to passed on 17th December 2018.

Since then no update. I sent mail to both London and Lagos. London replied asking me to use the Webform so the office handling my file will see my enquiry. I used the webform to send a reminder. I received a mail from IRCC that my file is in Nairobi and I should mail them as well.

To cut the story short. I sent a gentle reminder to Nairobi twice buh no response. Which was on 26th & 27th December 2018. On 4th January 2019, I received Biometric validity correspondence and today 5th January PPR dropped and my application was also approved!

I just sent a mail, pls let's communicate.

A lot of us kinda outgrow the thread (I will too soon), but I just feel we all should create time to help one another scale what is in my opinion the most difficult hurdle of this process - the VISA hurdle.

I attended orientation today and the number of asians that are resuming school were way more than half (they move together in groups and speak their language at will). Anyways, bottom line is that we Nigerians can and should put conscious effort into helping one another to get TRVs.

A little bit about life in Canada may help some of us on the thread make smart decisions about pursuing this whole thing. Because some are actually better of elsewhere, as not everyone's success is tied to Canada.

I very importantly have to say a very big thank you to a member of this forum, cocosmite. I reached out to him before I left Nigeria and he has been of tremendous help to me. Brother actually cooked and brought home cooked meal for me at the airport! Allowed me stay in his apartment for three days, and helped me settle in! Some angels live among us people. They breathe air like you and I (some even like girls with big bum-bum ) but they are nothing short of angels. I am really grateful.

So I guess we all catch the message, let's help and continue to help one another, keep the cycle going and all.

I school at MUN, if you have questions about the school please feel free to ask here and I will answer to the best of my knowledge.[/quote]





Congratulations and I hope winter isn't too harsh.
I have a few questions about MUN...

I applied for a PhD in philosophy for winter 2019 but got a reject. I was communicating with a potential supervisor who seemed impressed by my work and was on the admissions committee. After the rejection, I reached out to him and he stated that I had a good application but there were better applications....

I intended to apply for a Master's instead but I've been a little discouraged. I have applied to other schools though...

I already have a Master's in philosophy with a CGPA of 4.3 and BA in philosophy with a CGPA of 4.1.

Do you think I should give it a shot?

I will appreciate it if you can shed light on what makes a good application for MUN.

God's blessings.

Congrats fadasss and mrmoshood

It depends on the type of ticket you bought but normal economy ticket is 23kg x 2 and 10kg for hand luggage.

I used Egypt air just last month from Lagos to Toronto.

Yea, she (mum) is actually coming from Toronto to Lagos and after checking the ticket very well, I saw just 1 baggage allowance.

Please is Ukraine also amongst the countries that handle Canadian study permit applications, from Nigeria?

Please anyone with idea on the above?
I'm asking because I found that my application is being processed in Ukraine (kyiv.gc.ca.) online route, and this people are taking forever to send me PPR.
I did medicals on 26th of Nov.
Medical passed on 7th Dec., and i was asked to upload my updated admission letter. I did that on 10th of Dec.
Nothing since then.
I mailed them on 21st of Dec. and they replied "Your submission has been uploaded. You will be contacted shortly".
I don't know their own definition of shortly since 21st or I'm the one that do not understand English again.

Any Fanshawe college applicant. How long does it take to get an acceptance letter from them ?

Good afternoon house....please is 5m enough to show as a proof of bank statement from my sponsor for the study permit application or more than that to be safe?
