Good evening gurus in the house
From the advice received from @Frankrobbn1 and, @JustMellow

In my sop, I stated that most of my salary (80%) is invested in my home country (land, shares and mutual funds) with proof because I am not from this country (I attached documents for the land and shares in Nigeria).

I am the main sponsor of my wife now and my sister is the co-sponsor. (My sister is transferring $10,000 (CAD$13,000) to my account here).
In my sop, I wrote that my sister is the custodian of my movable properties and sole financial representative in Nigeria. I attached proof of some receipts of transfer of money from me here to her account in Nigeria. I also attached two land documents in Nigeria (Abuja and Lagos) that I claimed she bought for me and an inherited land document from my father (dead) in Lekki. In the sop I said that in African tradition as the eldest in my family I inherited the land.

Because the money from Nigeria is bulk money deposited in the account. I said it is part of my father’s inheritance savings from Nigeria. (I am applying in 2 weeks’ time) No time for Fixed Deposit or Treasury bill.

Or should I write that the money is from the sale of one of my land, by my sister in Nigeria.

Please is it a good idea? If not please advise……
Gurus in the house please help help help

Helengirl:
Good morning house, pls I need to find out if it is possible for me to go for medical after my application for student visa in May. Am asking because I called one of the medical centers in lagos Island and the customer service person that attended to me said I can't come for medicals after applying except I get a form or go ahead from then. Please and please what do you guys advise? Thanks.

Frankrobbn1:



I think it makes more sense if you say the funds comes from the sale of one of your land, by your sister in Nigeria. Having said that, you need to provide valid and verifiable evidence of this property and written agreement between you and the buyer. The document must be firmly attested and notarized by a licensed attorney in Nigeria. Aside the $13,000CAD that your sister will be transferring to your account, hope there have been history of steady inflow and outflow of cash in your bank statement in the past 6 months?. It will be a red flag if this is the only money that has reflected in your account statement recently. Also take note of your financial history so you don't end up shooting yourself in the foot.


It will end in praise.

I am applying to College of North Atlantic and I have paid my application fee and filled details but they told me to mail my official transcript and documents to them...
Please with this travel ban and all...
How will I do it?

Frank please check your email

Frankrobbn1:



Email correspondent acknowledged with thanks Sir.

Luckymama:


Yes. In fact the reason for denial was just generally that the VO felt I lack enough funds. It was when I got GCMS notes that I saw the main problem was that there was no evidence that the sponsor had control of the corporate account used.
If you can get a letter from your bank attesting that you are the sole signatory of your corporate account like someone else suggested I think it will cover you.

Frankrobbn1:


No need to rush, wait for IRCC to request for the medical exam from you. At least, this shows that your application is progressing and a positive decision is soon to be made on your application.


Keep the faith alive and hope for the best.

Go to your school and apply, it kinda takes time so the earlier the better

Frankrobbn1:


Why College of North Atlantic? Is it because its tuition is relatively cheaper in comparison with most colleges in Canada and/or the ability to secure a Permanent Resident of Canada is way more easier in the Atlantic province of Newfoundland? Please be sure you're applying for the accurate level of education as majority of the programs offered in this school are predominantly in the Post Secondary Diploma level. It's not all about getting admission into a DLI in Canada, albeit its convincing the visa officer that you're indeed a bonafide student to study an ordinary diploma in Canada, given that there are similar available courses which are obtainable in Nigeria at a low cost.

I hope you check properly so you don't end up investing so much on a project that will not heed positive outcome. I have saved several applicants from the misinformation in course selections, and I trust you will not be an exception too.

Please help me ooo. How can I justify in my SOP why my wife and daughter (5yrs) want to follow me to Canada when I am applying for student Study permit? Already got a research assistant offer of $21,000 per year for Master program.

Wunaarroon69:
This is a tough one.
Leaving the child in Nigeria will not be ideal at such age and would not really prove home ties. The VO will imagine why a nursing mum will want to leave her child to study in Canada.

Then again applying with the child will also make the VO ponder why a nursing mum will want to study immediately than wait till the child it’s at least a year or two. More like what’s the rush to study... when the mum can wait till the baby is a bit matured, if you get what I mean?

But I guess the gurus can advise better

jamesy212:


Thanks a lot Luckymama. Do you've any idea about opening a GIC account from Nigeria and if it's possible?

Congratulations on getting a job before hand.. Which school and course of study?

If possible, leave your family behind and apply alone using them as home tie. Then when you get ur permit, u can invite them over.. I think it's a better approach so you don't end up getting denied especially as you'll be studying for free

Good Morning house . Please I need your help, I got Masters Admission offer for Fall term September 2020 but I am worried that the time left might not suffice for Visa processing, if the embassy comes with their decision after the resumption date, and let’s assume it’s not a denial, what will likely happen ?

Kamsiroyce:
Please Gurus in the house Iam interested in the answer to this question. Very much like my case. Thank you all

Flourhine:

JustMellow:


Hello Gugu40,

She you are using her as your sole custodian in Nigeria, you should show a "Power of Attorney" as evidence to this claim.

Selling of a property to show source of funds isn't a bad idea or you can get her to write a letter to the effect of the source of funds and lumpsum deposit. Some sensitive terms relevant to your application should be contained in the Power of Attorney i.e. recognizing/assenting that her account (name and number) should be the sole receiving account that operates financially on your behalf). This way, this serves both a legal and formal reason why she is sending such lump sum and proving the source of the funds at the same time.

As earlier said, a concise letter should be included point the attention of the VO to the Power of Attorney were the valid facts lies. You just have to be soft with words and carry the VO along.

All the best

gugu40:


Thanks for the advice I will talk to my sister about it. Thanks again.

Just like I asked @Frankrobbn1

Please @JustMellow what do you think about this? Does this have any negative impression from your own point of view?

Before now, I wrote that since she is the custodian of my movable properties and sole financial representative in Nigeria that I just recalled some of my cash with her $13,000CAD (which she sent to my account)
Thanks
