Super CONGRATSSSSSS and well done indeed. Please go and start washing old suitcases, purchasing new ones and booking your flight ticket Anyone from Nairobi processing office for a Masters or PGD programme receive BVL yet? I can see that TimAke is PHD and did not apply from Nigeria so not sure we can use his as a yardstick for ours or what do you guys think? From this timeline it is safe to assume that the next thing for those that have received AIP and their gcms notes with everythng looking good is to expect BVL then PPR. Is there anything to worry about at this stage? I think I read somewhere in this thread way back that usually the sticker visas are affixed here in Nigeria right? Or do the passports go to Canada and return to Nigeria? Also, I have also seen somewhere that it is usually at this stage that our oversabi Nign guys start requesting for updated statements and all. What was the timeline pre-covid between PPR and when one gets his study permit? So many qstns sorry, just want to know what to expect from here though I am still waiting anxiously for my gcms notes to come out. it is 32 day today TimAke: 3 Likes |

Ifelajulo: Hello Ifelajulo, It may be of your best interest to consider the 2022 intake. The admission letter may be issued before that time. As mentioned in my earliest post, try to secure admission in another school. Since you claim the program is only available in your first prospect DLI then opt for something very close in another. If the VO request for an updated offer letter, if the offer letter from the first prospect DLI isn't out, then use that of the second prospect DLI. You can support it with a good LOE and email correspondence evidence between you and the prospect first DLI as proof to why the spontaneous and pro-active decision for the course change and demonstrate how related they are but with different job title. Request for the GCMS if it has not been requested to help you have idea of the current activities and the stage of your application. You may even be left in awe as there is also a probability that a new letter may not be requested. However, its better safe than sorry. You'll be fine! |

Happy Sunday to you all I wanna ask what this means , (based on whether an Applicant who got AIP should defer or wait till he/she gets a Visa decision bfor Deferring). NB:Program only available for Sept INTAKE., and Program has started alrdy for Fall 2020 The Applicant got a mail from the school which goes thus, Please see the IRCC instruction on this DEFERRED ENROLMENT After a study permit application is submitted (150 days or less) If less than 150 days have passed since the intended program start date, officers should continue to process the study permit application. After a study permit application is submitted (more than 150 days) If more than 150 days have passed since the intended program start date, officers should request a new letter of acceptance from the applicant to confirm if the student has deferred their enrolment to a later date. Officers should follow the instructions concerning Requests for additional documents on open applications and allow 90 days for the applicant to respond " My Question now is, With the above mail from the skool, Is it safe not to defer yet until 150 days is complete starting from the program Start Date (which is September 8 ) and 150 days from that date is around early February 2021. Thanks... 1 Like |

Queenmama03: Hello Queenmama03, Its strongly advised that you contact/secure a potential supervisor before applying for a Thesis-based Master. Don't throw away your hard earn money, as only few are lucky doing as instructed by the DLI in the regard. All the best 1 Like |

silvamania: Hello Silvamania, Very insightful post. In the first sentence, I am of the opinion of just "demonstrating proof of funds" than "showing proof of funds" for the subsequent year. I think they represent two different thoughts and maybe you used both interchangeably. Aside this, your analysis was spot on. One love! |

Queenmama03:Ok, I wouldn't want to conclude u av checked all skools in Canada offering Masters in Economics, cos it's very Essential for you to Contact/Secure a Supervisor Visit the Link below , you gonna see Schools (over 40 schools) offering Masters in Economics or Economics Related programs, Google them and explore their Websites and Economics Department https://www.universitystudy.ca/search-programs/?k=Economics&program_level_merged=Master%27s+degree&program_language=ENGLISH am sure if u explore the skools, u should see substantial amount of skools that requires u to get a Supervisor Prior to Applying Make sure the schools are DLI and offers PGWP (Post Graduate Work Permit), the link below will help u on that, https://www.nairaland.com/5818588/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/11#89109090 Finally, you can make use of the Guides/contents/videos in the link below on how to apply for M.SC/PH.D programs, Get a Supervisor and Possible Ways to get Funded (Scholarship) M.SC/PH.D Positions in Canadian Universities https://www.nairaland.com/5818588/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/111#90933556 All da best!!! |

Lekiboboe: Most a sponsor be related? |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Chocs(f): 1:43pm On Oct 18, 2020 |
Hello @lekkiboe The summary of this is that, if 150 days has passed since the student’s intended start date of the program, the VO should ask the student to show an updated letter of acceptance to be sure the student still has an admission for a new start date before they continue processing the visa. If it is less than 150 days since the start time for the course, they can continue processing without asking for a letter. Based on this, it does not matter when you defer. They just want to see you still have an admission before issuing you a study permit. Best wishes Lekiboboe: 2 Likes |

Hello shoyemiayodeji A sponsor must not be related. People have gotten approval with unrelated sponsor. When using an unrelated sponsor, it’s good to make it clear why that person decided to spend so much on you. But if you have a related sponsor that would be great.

Hi, I require some clarification. Is it in every application made that a BVL is issued? I already have a BVL obtained when I applied for a visitor visa. In my application for a student visa do I expect to get another BVL regardless of the fact that i didn’t do biometrics again and it has a duration of 10yrs. |

Thank you very much for your response @Lekiboboe. I am currently the Assistant HR in the organization I work for , I started working there this year after my NYSC and before then I served at a counselling unit. - of course , I do have genuine reasons for enrolling for a PGC in HR. Lekiboboe: |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Lekiboboe: 5:30pm On Oct 18, 2020 |
Oreoluwamipo:You are Welcome Oreoluwa, Oh that's awesome So this is what u gonna do, Its advisable for u to write a Cover letter (addressed to that department in the sch.) as part of the supporting documents for ur admission application, in which u will talk about why u are going an HR program even though u av a degree in a non-related program (Political Science) This is where u will now explain ur Professional Certificate in HR, your Work Experience as an Assistant HR and also in the cover letter , mention like 3-4 courses/subjects u will be doing in that program in the college. In a Nutshell, Know that, ur transcript says more about your Political Science degree, so its the following supporting documents: - Professional Certificate in HR - Cover letter - Recommendation Letter from ur Boss (Where u work as an Assistant HR) - Optional THOUGH, - Updated Resume/CV the admission committee of the college will likely dwell more on in order to make a decision if u will be given the admission or not, so a Cover Letter could give them a second thought Find attached a COVER LETTER SAMPLE/TEMPLATE (FOR ADMISSION) NOTE: Some of the Contents in that Cover Letter would be what u gonna write in ur SOP when u want to begin ur Canada Study Permit Application (e.g in a Sub-heading/Paragraph like Why Graduate Certificate in HR in so so skool, so take note of them.

Good evening, Please, I have not received response from IRCC as regards my study visa and my passport will expire in a months time and I want to get it renewed. Someone said I have to pay another visa fee because the new passport will have another number on it. Is this true? Is there anything like payment of another visa fee? |

Hello Luwaluwa You do not need to pay another visa fee. When you get a new passport just inform IRCC via a webform and email and attach the new data page of the passport. If you applied from Nigeria, use these email addresses and the webform : Email (nairobi@international.gc.ca, nrobi-im-enquiry@international.gc.ca, nrobi-immigration@international.gc.ca) Webform https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=nairobi&AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1 Best wishes Luwaluwa: 3 Likes |
