Thank you so much.

Adunola20:

Yes you can apply with them.
You need to show you have enough funds to cater for the three of you. I will advise you should have more than the minimum required funds on IRCC website.
Depending on their age, you can make arrangement for their daycare/school and attach it to their application.
You need to have other home ties, e.g: husband, your family, your job and others.
Pray, pray and pray!

All the best!

Really helpful. Bless you

Fgmp12:

Yes they can provided you have enough to cater for them when they get there and also it wouldn’t affect your studies.
Just make sure you make plans for them as much as you’re making plans for yourself.
BTW : they can serve as good home ties for you here and you get them there as soon as you get your TRV.

My department is planning to send my stipends for the entire fall semester (September to December) via cheque to me in Nigeria (as per new directives due to the pandemic). I need advice on this. Should I ask them to hold action till I am in Canada or should I get the cheque since I am not even sure of when I'll be in Canada. The money will be enough to cater for 200% of my needs here. Does anyone even know whether or not I can cash a Canadian cheque into a Nigerian bank account?

I think you have to pay your tuition from it.

If I were you, I will see if I can open and operate an account in Canada. I believe your school can do a direct deposit into that account. The way naira Dey bleed now, I am not eager to convert any dollars to naira except I know I won’t need it soon. Naira is projected to fall to 500 per dollar in the next one year.

About the question, I think you should be able to deposit into a domiciliary account. Check with your bank.

All the best.

Hello

Please I need advice from all the experienced people here.

I submitted my online study permit application since May 29 2020 for resumption in September 3 and I haven’t gotten any response yet. Not even for medicals. I sent an email and I was informed that most VO’s are under staffed and the application will be processed in due time.

But the deadline for full tuition is 14 August.
This caused me to defer my admission to Jan 2021, which has been approved.

My issue now is, do I have to inform the VO of the deferral?
Will it have any negative effect on my application?
I’m very hopeful that it will end in praise but on the other hand if it doesn’t, is it advisable to reapply for another permit?


Thank you.

I believe you can work or study with the work permit. However, work in a NOC B, A, or O gives you a better opportunity to immigrate. If I have to choose between work or study with an open work permit, I will work in a profession that increases my PR chances. Some jobs like admin assistant and daycare worker are more easier to get. You can actually get them within the Nigerian-Canadian network. However, these jobs don’t fit most people’s expectation of Canada. Some also don’t know that some hustle are more professional or recognized than others. As such, many end up wasting most months, if not all, Of their work permit in search for more competitive jobs, while some do jobs that do not increase their immigration opportunities. To be successful in Canada, you have to be determined and strategic. You need to know opportunities to pursue, and Why and how to pursue them.

All the best.
Nailed as usual. Thanks so much

Technically no, he is allowed to defer his May admission until the following semester. He is also allowed to change schools, but he must inform IRCC that he has switched school. I recommend that he notify IRCC ASAP because his May school will inform IRCC that he did not show up to school.
As for working for 5 months. I don't know about that. I'm not sure if his off-campus working permit allows him to work before school begins. Whatever the case, tell him not to say tell any soul that he has been working.

Hello Dayjeee,

If there is no clear reason or intention on why you chose a Diploma ahead of a Master or PGD/C after a B.sc, then stay clear. Its important to be able to demonstrate that the program choice is a progression whether a Diploma, Advance Diploma, PGD/C, Master or Ph.D.

Settling for a program that doesn't show progression isn't impossible to secure a visa with it but the chances maybe slim and requires furnishing the VO with satisfactory reasons and proven that you're a genuine student.

If you decide to go for a Management course, endeavour that you have at least some exposure or experience. This way, you can be able to make a case. If you understand your situation and have the know-how of what the Diploma program entails and its benefits, you may succeed. If not, PGD/C or a Post-Baccalaureate Diploma may just be your best bet outside Master.

All the best

Thank you sir.
The reason why I decided I want to go for the diploma course is because of the fee, its cheaper than PGD/C
Secondly, most of the PGD/C i have seen are 1year program, and I want a 2year program, in order to get 2 to 3 years PGWP, and that's is what most diploma offer.

The reason I wanted to go for management related courses is because it will be a little bit easier to secure a job in a qualified NOC if i want to apply for PR. Moreso, I have more than 2 years work experience as a CSO in a financial institution.

I will still appreciate your contribution and direction. Thank you

Wait for your school to send the updated admission letter for January den you send via webform. Google "Canadian webform", the rest is easy to fill and attach the new admission letter.

Defer your admission to January and send the updated admission to IRCC. Though your application is still at a baby stage but nevertheless defer the admission.

For the bolded, you will have issues when it gets to applying for visa. Imagine a VO sees your BSc certificate and then sees you have an admission for a diploma. Theres no career/academic progression there. Thats an easy denial "Purpose of visit". I will encourage you to stick with a PGC.

Thanks for replying. My school typically follows the policy you highlighted prior to this covid-19 wahala. However, due to the pandemic, they sent a mail that they've been authorised to send stipends to international students via cheques. They anticipate delays in processing the cheques so they'll send the entire funding for the fall semester once (September to December) and they'll pay tuition themselves.

I have not even gotten my final permit yet. I got only an AIP. I am really confused about it. I may ask them to suspend action and keep my funding in my student account (which is the second option anyway) pending when I can get to Canada. If I am to remain in Nigeria beyond September, they'll have to send the funding to me here. I just don't know how it will work with our Nigerian banks.

Please which school offered you funding and how did you apply for it

okay, can you assist with a 2years PGD/C program that a customer service officer in a financial institution can do that will show career progression?

Thanks alot.
Is it possible for the bank to increase my monthly limit. Cause those I know abroad, they may not want to release their card details


Unfortunately it is not possible they will increase your limit on your naira denominated card. You can only open a foreign currency account/request for a foreign currency card and use it for your payment.
Good luck!

I am afraid the reason for your choice of programme is lame and could amount to fruitless effort.

I will suggest you apply for GDP/C. You can check Cape Breton University (Post-Baccalareate Diploma in Business Analytics, Business Management and Supply Chain Management).

Good luck!

Good day guys...

I'm in a situation here.

I submitted a Web form about two weeks ago with no response. As at that time, my application was one month and a few days old.

Note: since application, July 1st, only got BVL and since then nothing.

Now, I went back to website in a bid to submit another Web form (enquiring about an update with regards to my application) but after putting all my details and clicking next, the page never advances. I have tried twice in the last one week. The same problem persist.

What could be the problem?

Thanks for your anticipated response.
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Ichiebillion: 4:54pm On Aug 15, 2020
Helo guys,
I judging from the input of our experienced gurus here, one can easily deduct that going for 1yr PGC will be hard to get PR. please gurus my questions are:
Can 3 semesters of study qualify as a 2 year programme? the college offers 2 semesters of course work and the third semester is for co-op/ unpaid placement. can it fly as regards in getting PR as study?

Secondly, my second choice of school offers 2 years of study. the first 3 semesters are for course work while the last semester is for co-op. though the programme of studies in this one clearly stated that it's a 2 year programme.

N/B my questions are as regards to PR issues, so as not to be caught off guard.

Hello Dayjeee,

If the reasons you gave are the motivating factors for wanting to do a Diploma program, it will be well-advised you opt for PGD/C or Post Baccalaureate Diploma program if Master isn't an option. I think it will be better if your approach of reasoning comes logically outside what you gave.

All the best
