Please guys...Just a quick one. Can I use someone who is a Canadian citizen as my sponsor? The person is willing to send sponsorship letter. If so, what other documents should the person send? Thanks in anticipation guys.

Mudicua:
Good morning everyone.
May this new week bring favor to all TRV hopefuls.
May those who have had their PPR get their passports soon to enable them travel.
May those already in Canada find favor in their pursuits (school, housing, feeding, etc)
May God help us all.
And may the Universe be kind to us all.

Amen!!!

Y'all have a great week.

Remember it shall all end in praise.

Hello house

Please is there any other means of contacting the CIC. I have been emailing them as regards to my application that will complete 12 months by June 1, no decision has been made on my application yet not even medical request... 12 months its so frustrating. I don’t think there’s anyone here whose application is as old as mine.. if I can sue this CIC honestly I would. I just need a decision at this moment be it positive or negative I don’t care anymore. I need this decision to get back my tuition fee if the outcome is negative. My admission letter has expired and my school will not refund my tuition fee until they see a refusal letter from CIC..I’m tired please I need help.. I have been emailing CIC 3 times a weeks for the last one month no respond..

Tlontin:

I haven’t infact I am just feed up.. I don’t know why qlife is like this ooo...and you?

ghabrhiel10:


Nothing yet too. I'm calling them tomorrow, I've given them enough time

Tlontin:

When did you do you medical exam with them?

My own chip in
She should move to Ottawa or Toronto for summer ONLY to work. If she has any friends (that lives in an apartment) or family member that can accommodate her for the season

Work experience is very very important here.

Relocating to Toronto or Ottawa is highly crazy in terms of cost of living so I will advise her not to relocate.

Her resume should be in Canadian standard, her friends can help her with it, her school employment supports can also help her with it, indeed can also help her with it. But I would advise she should go through school employment supports or friends formats. She should also write a very good ready-made cover letter so whatever work she wants to apply for she would just do a little editing.

In Ottawa ”PeopleReady” employs every day And they have jobs that pay $22 per hr in this summer.

If she wants to come to Ottawa, she should call them and book an appointment with them. then she will be interviewed and write an exam. After the exam, they will congratulate her.

There are surplus jobs in Toronto, Ottawa and BC but the cost of living is maad.


Thank you for the information. I believe she has a well crafted resume and cover letter (though with limited work experience), as she has worked with her school's Career Services and other local employment agency in Windsor. I'm not oblivious of the importance of having Canadian experience in job search, but you will agree with me that it is financially straining schooling in Canada for 8 months without income. She just joined this thread and can see all this useful information you guys have been dishing out to aid her job search.

On Transferring to location with better job prospect, we have looked into schools and apartments in Toronto and found that while the cost of living and tuition might be higher there, the income you get by working in Toronto or Ottawa can go a long way in offsetting the cost of living in those two locations. In addition, the Canadian work experience is also vital for post graduation job hunt.

We know no one in Ottawa but she is open to moving there if she finds a comparable program to what she is studying in Windsor.The problem is she can't tell her landlord in Windsor to pause while she is on a job hunt to Toronto or Ottawa. Plus she will need a temporary place to stay to look for jobs in Toronto or Ottawa.

Thank you for the advice!

Oga boss what bout in a situation whereby PA have no travel history and criminal conviction and got refused in background checks?

Could it be in background checks maybe they also distribute the documents to the appropriate department for checks then gather the findings to the primary VO to assess if the PA meets the study requirements
??
Well, sometimes they do eligibility review without updating it in MYCIC account but I've seen some application in this forum that doesn't stay 2 weeks and got refused in background checks

Frankrobbn1:


@the bolded, There is none at the moment. You have to book an appointment with IOM or Q-life prior to completing a medical exam. You will be given a week date from now to proceed for your medical test.

Bracha:
Hi Frankrobbn1, could you please explain the parts in bold to me. It sort of contradicts what I know. Do you mean that first applications so not need to submit fingerprints? Aren't fingerprints a part of the biometric identification? Also if they do not submit fingerprints, as a form of biometrics, what then is valid for 10 years?
Thank you.

Naijaforeigner:


Good morning boss, answer to your questions can easily be found on school website.
Search for the school you are interested in, program of choice and you will know if there is a co-op option for that program.

Frankrobbn1:


Majority of applicants do pass their background checks, which can be attested from their GCMS NOTE after a visa refusal. It's very rare to see an applicant who failed this criminal inspection. Meanwhile, it's after the background checks by CBSA that the documents will then be sent to the visa officer's GCMS database for a complete review and a decision to be made on the application. In some cases, eligibility review might start without any update on the applicant's MyCIC account, this doesn't insinuates that the applicant failed their criminal checks, somewhat the blame at times goes to the unexpected system glitch which takes time for the update to be uploaded. Above all, there is no blueprint for this visa processing thingy as applicant's cases differs in spite of the fact that we try our best to gather precise details from successful applicant's timeline.

Omonoba1981:

I got reply from MP. These guys are awesome! Austacus, your advise was on point. Thanks once again


I will mail it, if I have to take it in myself, I will have to fly to Los angeles, where they have their student permit VAC. Been there twice. during my journey.

My story !!

2015 -- Visitor Visa 5Years

2016 -- Student permit rejected when I try changing status- Was advice I can only do it outside of Canada

2017 -- Student permit rejected , I had to travel to LA with US visitor visa

2017 -- Student Reject flew to Lagos to apply

2018 -- Student permit approved US embassy Lagos

2018 - Applied again in Lagos no response till 2019 after 8months

Frankrobbn1:


My bad! That was a typo. , I meant to say if it was the applicant first time of applying for a temporary resident visa to Canada, then he/she is expected to submit their fingerprint at the visa application centre (VAC) and pay the required fees of 85$ prior to application submission. On the basis that it is the second application, then he/she isn't suppose to submit their fingerprints as the previous refused application details including the biometrics is valid until a decade.

Thanks Bracha for calling to my attention!

Damilolaoluwa:
Good evening house,

Could you please assist on how to go about the medical test. Though I applied online on the 12th of May, got an invite for Biometric on 13th and my biometric was captured on the 14th.just wanted to know if I could go for my medical test upfront.

Waiting to hearing from you.

Many thanks.
