Approval Alert
Submitted app 30th December
Medical Request 23rd February
Medical passed 11th March
PPR and Correspondence letter 19 March

Sent them a CSE yesterday and early this morning i got the mail. See, there was a moniker here that said it's luck and there's no God after getting his PPR. I don't know where he is now but I want him to know it's not luck. There's an Almighty God, a living God. He answers prayers. Thank you so much Frankrobben, God go do your own. And to all TRV hopefuls, God will answer everyone. There's something I used to do since I got my scholarship, any aeroplane I see, i always decree and declare that I will be in such a plane a month to my resumption . That was my method of faith for over a year now. Glory to God Almighty once more.

Good day everyone

I got admission to UPEI undergraduate computer science yesterday. Here is my profile am 28 years old
I have an OND in computer Engineering 2011, have been working as a programmer since 2011 until the company shut down 2017 so I decided to study in Canada, my Dad is my sponsor and he as a strong SOA, what are my chances considering my age?

Secondly, there is a spelling different in my Dad last name is Taofik, my own last name is Taofeek. Do I still need prove to show that he's my Dad?

Thanks

When this medical of a thing needed in? And what kind of sickness or infection that can Lead to visa refusal?

It’s either you do an upfront medical or The visa office will ask you to complete the medical tests within 30 days of receiving information from them. Once the tests are complete, you would be required to submit the test results or medical slip along with the application form to CIC (though the hospital will also submit the result to CIC). Depending on the results of the medical exam, the immigration officials will decide which candidates are inadmissible and those who must get the chance of immigrating to Canada.

The CIC medical examination usually includes:
~Physical examination like eye, nose, height &weight, heart, lungs, and other organ check-ups
(you’ll be asked to lie on your back and the doctor will just press the abdomen area in 2–3 places to check if they find tenderness or anything abnormal)
And also the doctor will Listen to your breathing using a stethoscope
~Blood pressure
~Chest X-rays
~Blood tests for HIV and Syphilis
~Urine tests

IRCC would approve the application if the applicant doesn’t meet those medical conditions mention by the Canadian public health department. Hence, it would be better if the applicant clearly mention their medical condition to the CIC medical panel physician. The physician will carry out the necessary medical tests for the applicants.

It would be better if an applicant follows the instruction of the physician. For instance, issues like high blood pressure or cholesterol should be under control before going for an examination. Similarly, one shouldn’t drink alcohol 72 hours before the test.

PS: tell the physician to send your medical result to your email address.

I hope I answered your question
Bless you.

In addition if you want a copy of your medical result, you have to come back after 7 days together with 2,500naira to get a copy. This applies to Q-life, Lagos. I don't know about other clinics.

Thank you.
I appreciate
I actually followed my experience in IOM.

In IOM you would be asked by the physician if you want to see your medical result, but if the physician didn't ask... Remind him/she or else they won't send it to you.
IOM result is within 2-3 days
(no extra charges to see your result in IOM)

Good evening gurus in the biulding.. Ive been a silent reader here but Ive learnt a lot from this thread. I pray all TRV hopeful get thier TRV with joy asap.. Going by what ive read here and learnt, I have come to realize that many ppl here were denied due to similar reasons or so.. Infact a lilttle differences from others. But I havr this questions bordering me. What is the role of career progression and the quality of DLI plays in securing the TRV. Although, most people got their TRV with entirely different background to what they are going to study. But on the issue of DLI, its like most TRV applicants from here are either going for PGD, PDC pr diploma in colleges in which only few will secure funding either half or ful while majority have to pay tuition fee upfront or deposit before they apply for TRV. I rarely see ppl with admissions in to top schools in canada like UBC, Montreal, Alberta, Quebec, Calgary and co here nut ppl going to colleges or advanced high schools.. O stand to be corrected tho.. But i guess those top school will either admit you with respect to your background and funding either partial or full for thesis based and most of them dont have much Pgd or so.. I stand to be corrected too. There are limited funding for course based in those school and if you want to pay your fee, you will be very rich.

So my point is this.. Is the quality of DLI play a role in the TRV processes or not. Because those school meant business and thier research is topnotch with funding if you merit it.. They mostly admit with funding if im correct for thesis but cant say much on course based.

Also, is there anyone here that got admiited to those top schools with funding still finding it difficult with TRV?..
Im just curious about the career progression and quality of DLI coupled with the fact that they consider other things like hometies, available funds, travel history and purpose of visit.

Any guru here should please shed more light on this...
Thanks.. Im still a learner here biko..

I will answer your question in a nutshell.
Some of the top-notch schools in canada requires financial capability (sponsors account statement, investment, etc) before they could grant admission to the applicant and again, the chances of admission are kinda slim, and tight that's why you hardly see Nigerians applying to the schools

So surely, once you get those top-notch schools, you have a better chance than someone that picked unknown or random DLI (designated learning institute).

PS: NOT ALL DLI ARE ALLOWED FOR PGWP (y’all be careful with the school you choose).

I hope I answered your question
Bless you

I did a little research and judging by trv approvals in the previous threads, I found out trv's are usually approved 2-3months before program starts. So for the early birds little patience will be required I suppose

I co-ask this question.
Does the quality of DLI play a role in study permit decisions?
I’m quite knowledgible with USA visa processes and I can attest to the fact that the quality of school one is going to really helps with US study visa because it already sort of assures the VO that the applicant is a genuine student. Is this advantageous for Canadian study permit?

What do you mean by quality of DLI.
Rank of school. Is that what you're trying to say cos DLI is DLI..
Oh well. What matters to me is a fully funded stay in a lab with a professor who's work is perfectly aligned with my research interests.
I hear almost all Canadian public universities are good. I think it's difficult to establish a pattern with these visa things....they are simply unpredictable
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 15 by Schonebaby: 9:38pm On Mar 20, 2019
For example it was after I secured a professor and have established very good contact with him. I was quite satisfied he is the kind of person I would want to work with for 4 years. 4 years no be beans grin shocked Then I applied. It was after I applied that I checked the ranking of my school
In retrospect, maybe it was a lack of foresight.....However I believe the program, research and funding is more important than the school (at least for Canada). My 2cents

Hello , i'm going to make a reference to what you said , i think there is no progression in his above application,he had a bachelor degree already in hospitality management and he is going for a 2 years diploma course which is a big step down obviously ,why not go for a masters program or a post graduate certificate which is definitely higher than his previous degree,and i think his home ties are not strong enough in my own opinion,you can apply from any part of the world as long as you have a legal immigration status,i'm not sure the VO links your home ties to where you study but to your country of origin in my own opinion.

I'm currently in Russia ,i will finish my bachelor's degree in the same Hospitality management from a university here in Moscow and i'm planning to go for either a master's program or post graduate certificate program of 2 years and to cap it up i'm applying from Russia which is understandable if i back myself up with convincing points. i have a wife and child in Nigeria ,i have my business in which my wife takes charge of it,i think those are enough home ties, i don't think having a siblings and a money in your account are home ties in my point of view.

i checked NBCC and i see they don't offer a post graduate certificate in hospitality management but in business related.


The visa officer considers your immigration status in your visiting country as well as your ties to your country of residence. What matters the most in the visa officer's assessment is where you will be returning back to after studies. Given that you've a valid study permit in Russia, you're absolutely eligible to apply for a Canadian study permit from there without having to return to your home land, while also providing significant ties to Nigeria (spouse and kids). Siblings have never in the Canadian law been regarded as a tie to an applicant's application. However, having fixed and unliquidated funds in your bank account has been proven to be a tie to PA's home country. When all is said and done, your case is far different from that of the applicant bearing in mind that he is a visitor's visa holder in Abu Dhabi which makes him ineligible to apply from overseas.

To a large extent, the school rank does play some role. Applicants going to schools that are highly ranked such as University of Toronto etc seldomly have issues securing TRV once their application is tight

My husband got admission into university of Alberta (masters), We applied for visa (am accompanying my husband) since 5th June 2018. Since then on response from the VO (no medical request)

Good evening guys, I applied to study in Conestoga College for a Post Graduate Certificate in Community and Social Service Management for Fall 2019 and Organization Management in Cambrian College also for Fall 2019. I have a Bsc in Economics and the reason for applying for a post graduate study is my inability to get a course for my MSC because of my poor CGPA though it's second class lower. I want to know my chances of being offered a place to study any of these in the colleges I applied to. And secondly, what are my chances of securing a student visa because I don't have a travel history. Funds for tuition, personal allowances are not a problem. My dad who's my sponsor has a very strong account balance. Please help me out.

TRV processing time update 21/03/2019

Hi everyone,
As at today, only 10 applicants have shared their timeline. Please if you have applied for a TRV, I would encourage you to share your timeline (which should include; the application date, application route, biometrics request date, date biometrics was done, medical request date, date medicals was done, date medicals was passed, and the current status). If you don't have all this information, you can just share the ones that you have and update the rest as you receive it.

This information would help us study or attempt to establish a pattern to how CIC operates.

We have made attempts to "calculate" processing times. (Please note that this is just an average based on the little sample we have. Your processing time may be faster or slower than the average). As we get more samples, I want to believe our calculations would be more "accurate".

Finally, If there is anything you think i should add to the data or calculate from the data, please share with me.

Hi there, from the look of things
1. There isn't any correlation between your program and your Economics degree which might lead to your trv getting rejected based on "Purpose of Visit"
2. You clearly dont have any experience in the field you chose and using it as a route to get into Canada and besides not qualifying for an msc program doesn't necessarily mean you can advance your career with other post graduate program such as; ADVANCED DIPLOMA, GRADUATE CERTIFICATE AND POST BACCALEURATE DIPLOMA
3. Travel history doesn't mean anything. A lot of applicants have obtained their trv without one.

Lastly, I will advice you try and apply for a course relating to your Economics degree in the given programs I listed above you should consider business programs. You should also look to construct a compelling SOP before submitting your application. I hope this helps.

P.s: your 2:2 is more than good enough to apply for those programs I listed.
