Somebody should please help with an answer to this question, with a valid visiting visa to canada, is it adviseable to gain admission into a university while in canada on a visiting visa, and can i get a work permit ?

I totally agree with you. Everyone is only sharing their thought. I think one cannot say accurately what is important from what is not but we can learn from people's experience.

I once travelled to U.S with $9k and I was pulled aside at Atlanta POE and I was drilled on what do I need so much money for just a 2week business trip. My bag was searched, my phone collected and thoroughly searched, my business partners contact checked. Thank God I was later allowed to go after almost 1hour when they finally confirm I came for serious business meeting.

On a flip side I had thought traveling with enough money will make the CBP officer happy that I have enough to take care of my self but no, It became a big problem for me.

Thing is when it comes to visa application nobody can say for sure that this is right and this isn’t right , whatever anyone who isn’t a consular is saying is a mere opinion and I hope people can take a cue and note it’s a mere opinion, because people qualify on different basis and reviewed by different consular officers, there’s a threshold you need to meet up when they’re assessing and once you meet it they can’t deny you the visa so nobody can say have so so so amount in your account because that’s a sham ( some people have 5 million and get denied some have less than one million and get approved), the banking profession can never be blacklisted please.
Like I said earlier whatever anyone is saying is a mere opinion and not a fact. Cheers

You can gain admission but you must apply for study permit from your home country.

Most people will not be honest with you.

Just as the title is stated “Visitor Visa” that is all it is.

Those people are very funny , you cannot actually say this is what they want , their wahala too much, I was in Houston for 2 weeks with $2k ( this was during that crazy dollar period of 520) and they were like it’s too small o. They took me to secondary and released me thereafter, I told them even though it’s super bowl period I’m not attending super bowl please leave me alone

It is strictly for visiting only and nothing else.

1. You cannot study in a university in Canada using a visitor visa.
2. You cannot get any job in Canada with a visitor visa. (No employer in Canada is ready to risk a penalty from the government.)
3. You cannot rent a house in Canada with visitor visa.
4. You cannot open a Canadian bank account with a visitor visa.

Canada is very strict and almost impossible to manipulate the system.

A lot of people are trapped in Canada thinking visitor visa can be converted to something else but it is already too late as they were lied to and given false hope before they arrived.


Point of correction, u can rent a house with a visitor's visa and u can open an account with visitor's visa.

Hello, so I reapplied for trv after I was initially denied based on employment . In my second application I included my business and family businesses (I am a final year int’l medical student , so I only stated my student status in my first application).
This time I was denied based on family ties & financial assets whereas that wasn’t a reason in my previous application. (I am married with a kid, I submitted $30k usd and N10M). I’m not convinced about the reason.
Anyways I’m more upset because i attended HS & university in Canada (6 years) and I left Afterwards.
Also I visited Canada like 3 years ago and came back.
Could it be that me being a doctor and Nigerian, they assume I want to run away? Lol.
Do you really have relocation plans

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Midasexchange: 11:49am On Apr 28, 2019
Good day folks,
Please I need your candid advice.
I was recently refused a usa visit visa in March. Before the application, my agent made some adjustments to my information like backdating my school history, backdating my employment history, filling my marital status as married while I'm single, and some other personal information changes. I was still refused anyway.
This time around, I got an invitation to my church conference in Canada and I'll have to apply for a visit visa.
I'll be doing the application myself and filling all details correctly.
My question is, will the USA visa refusal and wrong details affect my Canada visa outcome?

Your refusal may or may not affect your canada visa outcome but you need to use the same adjustable personal information that u used for ur USA visa application to apply for Canada visa

Thanks for your response.

I heard that Canada consulars request for documents and do verification. If I maintain the incorrect information, I won't be able to back it up with my credentials if they eventually request for it.
So what do you think?

Even if its a single room, single room is a house.
I live in Toronto, Ontario I have taken 2 of my friends that came for visit on 2 different occasions, to open an account with TD bank before they left for Nigeria.

I came across this thread after he started the processing. He actually claimed he has paid for the biometric that there is a delay in their system and that is why the biometric letter is not yet out, but he said he has booked Monday for the biometric, how come he booked an appointment for the biometric when the letter is not yet out. Is that possible

I doubt he is been truthful because a particular day isn't booked for biometrics.

You don't choose a day for biometrics. You can just go do it any time from 30days from recieving the letter after payment
