Did they call you up? If they called you for medicals, then it's highly unlikely you'll be refused.

If you just did it upfront, it doesn't have any effect on their decision.

Good evening everyone,
All praises is due to Allah.
I want to say a big thank you to everyone that has been of help on this platform, principally; Naijaforeigner, Qudkom, Frank, JustMellow and others.
My Refusal Letter is loading, I just received a BVL without medical. I applied on the 18th of November 2019, this is the 2nd refusal.
For those awaiting decisions, I pray that it will surely end in praises (Ameen).
For anybody that intends to go for upfront medical by January, kindly send me a PM, the date of my appointment is Thursday, the 30th of January, 2020.
Only God Almighty knows best.
Thanks.

3. The fact that someone does not have visa yet doesn’t mean that person can’t advise base on experience. Unless you want to say “na who pass na him know book.” Lie it doesn’t work like that as regards Canada visa especially. There are many examples to give personally.

The important thing is the advise on what you know so as not to miss lead anyone. This advise has been helping and those that got their visa can testify to that.

God bless you for the bolded.

When I applied in 2018, the advise I got on this forum were from people who have never been to Canada. Also, that you are in Canada or have been granted study visa does not make you a guru in Canada visa. As far as I am concerned, no one is a guru when it comes to USA and Canada visa's.

I am even tempted to say that people who were delayed, took time to study notes, followed and observed patterns and have been on this forum for so long know more than me who is in Canada when it comes to study permits. I applied only once and got my visa. I may never know as much as the individual who applied thrice and learnt from it.

Who can apply for study permit in Canada?

No one has the right to discourage anyone from applying to study in Canada. The best we can do is guide applicants on how to convince the Visa officer, make them avoid common errors and the rest is on God.

CIC has not been consistent in [b]how [/b]they grant visas to applicants, most especially Nigerians. Also, there are too many gaps in the list of documents on CIC website for study permit applications that is subject to different interpretations. I also think Canada allows their visa officers to apply discretion at will when it comes to study permit applications from Africa.

I know at least 3 Nigerians in Fanshawe that are in their late forties, been away from school for so long (over 10 years) and still got visa's. The recent one I saw was a woman almost 50 and she was given 1 year visa for a PGC course in Fanshawe college. How on earth do you explain that?

If you have the money, the right documents and want to study in Canada, apply.

Maybe i sounded a little off the hook.

What is the essence of research?
-If A works , lets Use A More , and lets use A like this.... ETC

-If B doesn't work, Can we stop it totally? Can we Adjust it , Can we Upgrade it? ETC

I will be sincere with you, If there are 100 Admission application to Canadian "COLLEGE".... Just 7 Got the Visa (This is a basic Research, Both within and outside Canada)

Application for a College Visa Seldom works, In short... It doesn't work.... with exceptions to VOs.

This is not hearsay, i am very much involved, There is a Crusade now that will soon be up in the air..... "Nigerians have to stop applying for Colleges, Visas are been Denied Heavily!!!

I am Involved in deep deep research and not some internet Junky!

What could be there and can you share tips to help other applicants get in front of this.
Well as the refusal reason suggests, it’s obvious that the amount in your “personal account” is not enough and there is no “personal assets” of yours in your application. This sort of reasons will occur because of the age of the applicant and study gap. It is expected that at a certain age, you are not to go for a certain level of program, you are expected to have reasonable amount in your account(since you have a job or a business), and personal assets like business documents(CAC) or landed property depending on your story/case.
Nevertheless, the VO may mention something else in your GCMS not related to this refusal reason. This is base on personal experience.

Good evening,
I have responded to your PM, I was thinking you will get back to me.
The slot is still available, but the officials are giving me headaches based on their responses, they said the slot is neither transferable nor refundable. They advised me to come for the medical or forget it. I see this as a daylight fraud! You are not refunding my money for the service not rendered and it is not transferable. Look at the way they are exploiting people here because of Canada.
You can check IOM clinic, they still have available slots for February.
Thanks.

I do not know the exact date, she told me 1 year. The date is irrelevant. Some students get 8 months plus extra 3 months on their visa. I know a student that had 8 months (duration of program) plus extra 6 months at POE.

In my case at the POE, I got 9 months (8 months of my program plus extra 1 month to leave Canada upon expiry. I had to renew my visa in Canada. Upon renewal, they gave me another 1 year plus extra 4 months. Study permit exact duration varies.

Austacus, how are you doing? Been trying to reach you.
Please check your email oooo.

Austacus:


I am pretty sure He didn't get banned. Canada will never ban you without clarifying to you in the protection Act.
Lemme clear you real quick
the ban comes with any of the following reasons in Canadian immigration and refugee law

Genuineness of relationship:  subsection 12(1) and subsection 4(1)

Medical Inadmissibility:  subsection 38(1)

Misrepresentation: subsection 40(1)

Criminal inadmissibility subsection 36(1) and subsection 36(2)

Express Entry: wrong NOC, employment letter, insufficient evidence

Security Reasons / Terrorism:   subsection 34(1)


In his case, I didn’t see subsection 40(1) (2) or (3) that talks about inadmissibility for misrepresentation or any of the protection Acts above. Whereas he also didn't get a procedural fairness letter.

He should be very proactive HE MUST NOT REAPPLY WITHOUT GCMS NOTE. He also needs a break to examine the authenticity of his previous application before reapplying.

All the best.

Most likely by the end of February you should be getting a response from them.
Usually U of S starts to send out admission decision from mid February through March, depending on the program you are applying to.

Best of luck.

Didn't Mean to bother You actually,....

PGC(Certificate) will get you a Visa ahead of Masters program, with at least 2 Years work experience ....

Most Certificate Courses happen at colleges but if people could look around a bit, they have to stick to Universities (That's the Jerk)

If you are 100 Years old and applying for a Certificate program, it is very legal, it is called professional Upgrade., as long as you can prove to have worked under that field and you are still employed.

The Oga Patapata of them all is PHD.

My dear, There are things that can only be experience rather than spell out.... Have you head this before?

If i may ask, what is your field or area of study , what context do you gather? no insults at all.

Have you ever seen anywhere a country defines Visa Approval statistics? Have you ever seen a Link for Visa Issuance? even at conferences you only hear, "A Number of visa considerations".

Then how do we go about it, we meet real life people, most of the time undercover applicants who may stand with you as applicants and excahnge contacts with you in as much to get back to you on the outcome.

In Canada, We meet Nigerians studying and ask them how their success came about, most people applied 6 times, some once! Funny enough this is someone's project all the way in a university in Moscow.

You want a link for a research that i am doing personally? Do you know what it costs? even your response is a research result.

If you are so sure of the research you are doing. Drop a link here. Nigerians aren't the only one being rejected.
If you go on canadavisa. Com you will see prospective students from different countries with multiple refusals.
There's is no definite hack to this visa process, every application is unique so visa officers can't use one guideline to judge.
Age is not a barrier when applying for study permit, it might hinder your chances but all you need do is tell a great story.

My brother NIGERIA is worse, not just CANADA Visa, EVERYWHERE!!!!! we apply almost everywhere and we make a mess of it.

Take this down, "The rate of Application to Canada from Nigeria alone beats the rate of application coming from the entire African Continent, Excluding South Africa( 10% of applications coming from SA are NIGERIANS)" , Let me Shock you, " Nigerians Make Up 20% of the entire Application population coming from the other countries in the CONTINENT!!!

INDIANs(pakistan , and the regions) and CHINA, Individually, have numbers far below The Nigerian application alone between JUNE 2019 till Date, Another Record.

Most of this parameters are online, but i don't depend on them for FACTS, I do what i call "MOBILITY".... ground soldiers knows the terrain.

Hello Everyone,

I am really not a regular commenter here but I thought I should share my short story.

Sometime in June last year, I came looking for information about BCS Certificate in IT exams, I had no knowledge of how to even begin the process at the time.

Fast forward to January 2020, I have began the evaluation process for my BCS CIT and on course to get that 2 or more certificates that has been so required for EE lately.

I was lucky to find a group on Telegram then which connected me with some tutors (BNT). This exam is not easy, but with the right assistance and guidance, it will be a walk in the park.

I wish to help anyone interested in the March exams achieve their dreams, we will all get to the promise land. I recommend the BNT tutors for anyone who is in need, they helped me and I am not shy to sing their praises.

I dont know how to share their contact without violating the rules but you can search for them on telegram or via their website: www.techbnt.com or send an email to techbnt@gmail.com.

You will be glad you need.

Do you've a masters degree and vast working experience? Express Entry will be the best bet for you and would lead you to a direct Permanent Resident of Canada. The entire PR process starting from writing the IELTS, ECA and Visa processing may take up to a full year and its lot more cheaper than the expensive study route and more assured too especially when you've the necessary documentation and requirements.

On the other hand, if you don't have the above profile (a masters degree & working experience,) then applying for a study visa will be your best move to migrate to Canada. The first step to securing a study visa to Canada, is to apply and obtain an admission in one of the Canada's DLI, once this is done, gather relevant documents as per IRCC document checklist and file for a visa application.

In my absence, If you require more information pertaining the subject matter, feel free to drop your questions here and your concerns will be attended to in a short while by my fellow knowledgeable group members.

It will end in praises.

Hello ma'am,do you know you can check google for all these questions and reservations you have about this school? You can check google or the school website for news paper publications about the school. You can also use google to find out about the school's rating, You can also use google to check for other likeable conversations about the school on other similar platforms as nairaland. From this things you will see on google you will be able to have either a positive or negative narrative about the school.

Thanks a lot for your reply. I actually did search through google, but the review wasn’t encouraging at all. All I needed was someone with a first hand experience on here to say one or two things about the school and it’s environs that’s all. Once again thanks for taking out time to reply.
