Thank you, big chief.

If its Lagos VFS you did your BIOMETRICS, you are not to pay the 7k transmission fee

The only fee you are going to pay is the one for the Courier company you choose to use to send your passport to Lagos VFS either with DHL or UPS, the choice is yours

Note: Make sure you do the Two-Way Courier for your Passport

Hi all, for those that were denied for this reason below;

"I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in
subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your personal assets and financial status."

How were you able to rectify this? And when you got your gcms notes, what was the Visa officer concern. Please help me.

Hi,

Do refer to this post

PG. Cert Programs in Electrical Electronics Engineering programs
https://www.nairaland.com/5818588/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/91#90516887

Since you mentioned TELECOMMUNICATIONS, i guess it is centered on electrical, computer engineering and internet networking which seeks to support and enhance telecommunication systems.

So sequel to that, you can google the following programs, visit their respective websites, check the course contents under each program and see how it aligns with your telecommunications engineering specialization

PG. Cert, Wireless Information Networking
Fleming College, Peterborough, Ontario

PG. Cert, Wireless Network Infrastructure
Conestoga College, Kitchener, ON

PG. Cert, Wireless Networking
George Brown College, Toronto, ON


Thanks, I appreciate

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 18 by iampaulsmith(m): 10:16am On Jan 04, 2021
No, I think you are wrong. What is written on the flier states that “We try to process most NSE application within 20 calendar days. However some applications may take longer”. It’s calendar days not working days. But if you read that statement very well you will understand that they are not obligated to conclude the application within 20days based on that second statement. Everyone can only pray for a fast processing time for their application.
It will end in praises!
Chukwubuikexo:

That is what I also have on my status too and another person on this thread also confirmed the same thing. I don’t want to believe our application is still on hold because the document section states “replacement overdue”. Moreover my own eligibility review started & medical was updated to pass during the 30days when the action required was still there so I want to believe they must have resumed. Has your eligibility review started too?

Good morning Dear NLs. I joined the threads late but I have been observing and looking forward to when my process would start.

I have gotten admission to Sheridan College but I also want to try Cambrian college.

1. Is there anyone who has admission to Sheridan or Cambrian college for fall 2021 and is going to start the visa process?

2. I would like the opinion of the house on the best province to get PR after PostGrad Certificate of one year.

3. Finally, I would like to know if my Aunty Can be my sponsor and also give me a gift deed?

I would really appreciate responses from the house. Thank you

Good morning everyone!
Please does the below clause on the NSE requirements mean like a Block account like Germany’s or Edubond for Irish visa!

“ purchase and provide proof of a guaranteed investment certificate showing a minimum of $10,000 from a Canadian bank, which you cannot access until you reach Canada;”...


ICASng

Am not sure this requirement applies to Nigerian applicants- Read here:

https://www.hdfccredila.com/planning-higher-education/gic-for-study-in-canada.html

For Nigerian students you are required to get a ticket for bank statement.- read more here:

Everyone here would readily assist you with your visa process.
As for the best province to get PR, preferences differ. Ontario, British Columbia and Manitoba are good provinces same as the rest.
Your aunty can be your sponsor but you have to be able to show that you both share a close bond. And she is ready to sponsor you. A deed of gift is a good idea

Hi guys

Arrived Edmonton, Alberta yesterday. It was majorly hassle-free the entire journey. Now in quarantine.

LAGOS AIRPORT

Checked in online 24 hours to my flight on the 1st of Jan. Apparently, economy class for KLM only allows one check-in luggage plus hand luggage and an accessory. Paid 42k for another check-in luggage. I had my 24 hours old covid test result with me, that seemed to be the most important thing. They didn’t check any other thing for me, not even admission letter. Like I was flowing through immigration check points showing just the covid lab test result, passport and one negative covid declaration other form I filled that’s required by Netherlands for transit flyers. Took off for the 6 hour flight to Amsterdam. Apart from occasional turbulence, it was smooth.

SCHIPHOL AIRPORT

Landed in Amsterdam for a 6 hour layover. Here, after normal stop and brief search, they just asked for admission letter, passport and boarding pass. Boarded for the 9 hour flight to Calgary.

CALGARY AIRPORT

Landed here and went through same immigration hassle. You fill a deceleration questionnaire on one touch screen machine to state purpose of visit and mention if you flying with animal agric products and all. I flew with stock fish, crayfish and all and I clicked YES to say I was flying with animal and plant products. The immigration officer asked what I was flying with, mentioned it to him and he said those ones are ok, that I should have clicked NO. He also asked for LOI, ArriveCAN receipt on my phone and admission letter. It’s better one declare and you are corrected and not declare and you are held down. Thanked him for the insight and was directed to another border officer to get my study permit. Took about 10 minutes to get the study permit after showing them just my admission letter and LOI. I proceeded to board for the 25 minutes flight to Edmonton.

EDMONTON AIRPORT

Just showed my passport here and that was all. Got my luggage and was out of the airport. My check-in luggages and hand luggage were open or searched. They were the same way from Lagos to Edmonton. But my bag crossed over my arm was opened and searched in Amsterdam and Calgary.

Note:

Please ask question when in doubt. While walking through a transit airport and the airport in Canada, you can sometimes miss your way and ultimately miss your flight cos time is of the essence. They are friendly and you will be directed. Please remember to have your face mask on at all times, except when eating, you can be fined for negligence.

All through my journey, I only had to present LOI, ArriveCAN, passport and admission letter, that’s all. I wasn’t even asked for proof of funds or enrollment letter. This will not be the case for everyone as diff airports have diff checks.

For visa hopefuls, keep the faith in God. Yours is loading. Take care!

Congratulations!!!!

Thank You For sharing smiley

ARRIVAL UPDATE!!!! LONG POST MBOK!! grin

I booked my flight with KLM for 31st of December cos I wan breathe New Air into the New Year. grin

So on said day, I got to the airport at about 4:30pm and checkin started an hour later.

Docs: LOA, LOE, School Fees Receipt, SOA from my sponsor, Negative COVID-19 test Result, LOI.

Got to the counter and the airline staff asked for my COVID test result, LOA and LOE. Presented and then was cleared to checkin my luggage cos I’d already checked-in online the night before. I was given two copies of a COVID form to fill out.

I went through Nigerian immigration smoothly, got to boarding area and dropped one of the forms before boarding the flight at about 10:30pm.

The flight from Lagos to Amsterdam was 6hrs long, when it was midnight for the new year, the cabin crew popped bottles of Champagne to celebrate with everyone on the flight. grin

Arrived Amsterdam at about 5am on New Year’s Day, went through flights connections to find my boarding gate for the flight to Montreal. My connecting flight was by 3:20pm so I just chilled around the airport for about 9hrs, the Schipol Airport is fantastic cool.

Had to take a temperature reading and fill out another COVID declaration form at Gate E1 before being directed to Gate 18 for the flight to Montreal. They checked for LOA, LOE, LOI at boarding area, checked my passport and then I boarded the flight.

The flight from Amsterdam to Montreal was about 7hrs long, we touched down in Montreal at 5pm EST, just before landing the flight crew passed out forms for those who haven’t downloaded the ArriveCAN app.

Two border control officers were at the aircraft door to check our passports and ask a few questions about your purpose to Canada. I went through customs to declare food items and currency, the customs guy simply asked what food items I had brought with me into Canada which I listed, he asked to see my ArriveCAN app receipt, then he gave me two leaflets containing information about the quarantine requirements and penalties, directed me to immigration.

There’s two immigration offices at the airport, I went to Immigration 2, the officer checked my passport and requested for my LOI, gave me a number and then I sat to wait. Few minutes later, she called out and asked to go to the Immigration 1 as my study permit was ready but my work permit wasn’t ready yet.

Got to immigration 1 office, also received a number and waited to be attended to, got to my turn, and I explained to the officer I’d being to the other immigration office and but was directed over to them. She requested for my LOA and LOI, asked what course I was studying and if the course has a CO-OP that requires the work permit, I answered yes.

I sat back down and waited while she did her checks, 5 mins later I had study permit and Co-op work permit stamped and Welcome to Canada. smiley

Quickly ran to get my bags as my name was being called on PA for my next trip down to Ottawa Train Station with the AirFrance Bus. 2hrs trip from Montreal to Ottawa. Got to Ottawa, an official from school was already waiting to take me to my hotel where I’m currently quarantined.

I’m in day three of quarantine, checking in daily on the ArriveCAN App and also taking calls from Govt Health officials and school officials to make sure I’m obeying the quarantine rules and not displaying any symptoms.

Ultimately, I thank God for the whole journey cos it was totally hassle free for me.

Good luck to everyone whose still expecting a positive outcome for their Study permit application. Your success story is sure to come!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! ITS ALL PRAISES FROM HERE!!!

Gist upon Gist upon Gist!!!

This is really Interesting.

Congratulations on your safe arrival!

IT WILL END IN PRAISES IN THE SHORTEST POSSIBLE TIME

Good day everyone.

Please I want to know if I can get a deed of gift from my Dad and my Mum, even though it’s my my sister who is sponsoring me?

I am asking because they also want to support me and have transferred some monies to my account. Can a deed of gift be used to explain what the huge deposit is for?

My account balance without the money from my parent has more than 10,000 CAD for my living expenses (mostly from my sponsor and my personal savings from my salary earnings).

Thanks for your response.
