I am sure it will be valid. The date I put there is based on the announcement by the Canadian govt that everyone landing in Canada must do a test.

Enrollment letter is a letter you get from your school as evidence that you a registered student for the semester you are going to resume for. You will be able to get this from your school portal or you send a mail to them.
LOI is the letter of introduction that you will need to provide to the officers at the POE. This is usually sent to your CIC account after your approval.


Please is the enrollment letter compulsory We’ve not been able to get to the school.. no response from them yet and she is leaving tomorrow. Thank you

Good idea. @Mildred01, Also if she has registered for her courses, I think she can also do a screenshot or a snap shot showing the courses she has registered for. I am sure she should be able to access that through her student account on the school portal. (My thinking).

Hello!
I also read on some occasions that the enrollment letter is sent to students who have paid Tuition(Kindly correct if this information is wrong guys). If your sister's school doesn't require she pay tuition before coming over, she most likely won't need the letter.

But you'll probably need proof of this, like screenshots of where that's stated on the school's website.

I wish her a safe trip to Canada.

For those of us still waiting,
IT'LL END IN PRAISES IN THE SHORTEST POSSIBLE TIME

Thank you.

Is this what the biometric slip looks like?

Also during passport collection from Dhl, is there anything else I’d need to give to dhl?



Hi Bisola,

The documents to give DHL are:

* Original International Passport
* 2 Copies of the VFS consent form
* Copy of your Biometric acknowldgement slip.
* A copy of the Passport Request Letter from IRCC
* Evidence of payment of the Transmission fee ( This should be paid if you want to use VFS Abuja and your biometrics was not done in Abuja)
* An envelope which you would hand over to DHL . ( write clearly your full residential address, email and phone number and the address of VFS Abuja at the otherside)
* Pay for a two way courier ( so DHL will be giving you two waybill with tracking numbers, one for shipping to Abuja and the other for return courier to your residence in Lagos),
* Being an important document, you can pay for insurance with the courier fee.

I would recommend you send to VFS Abuja, they are faster than Lagos.

Congrats!!!

Instead of staying in Lagos and wasting all that time, I'll just send my passport to Abuja from this Aba where I stay.

A general tip for writing your statement of purpose. Written by @lekkiboe


Guidelines on How to write an SOP (statement of purpose)

Most important thing: Avoid Plagiarism

While writing SOP, the following things to be mentioned which will boost chances of convincing a VISA OFFICER and possibly getting a STUDY VISA APPROVAL:

1. Introduce yourself in first paragraph. write, what kind of person you are, your interests and personality etc. This may also include one line background of work & study you did earlier. This should be related to the course your are going to pursue.

2. Explain what do you know about the area of study you are applying for.
Like HR, Marketing, Finance, IT, Multimedia, Engineering etc. Market trends, application of knowledge in work, organisations/roles where you can work after studying in this XYZ field and if possible, 1-2 real life example where you experienced this personally (in your current job or someone in family who works in this field etc.)This shows you are well read and know what you are getting yourself into.

3. Now explain Why Canada.
Mention all points Canada is famous for like low crime rate, diversity (which helps in learning), livability and quality of life related statistics etc. Facts & figures help you here. Google a little

4. Why this particular college/Univ. Explain ranking of the same or relevance of course being offered or if someone known is studying there etc. Mention positive points which you can gather from ex-student's testimonials and college website itself. Again, write in your own language and by your own understanding.

5. Why this Program:
Mention why you chose this program. Explain how courses (subjects) of this course will help you in your career, how some of these subjects you have learnt earlier (basic knowledge) and need better and upgraded knowledge about these (especially if applying for PG/masters), explain application of subjects in real job scenario etc.

6. Summarize with reason of coming back to home country: Now summarize all details by mentioning your career goals and what will you do post completing this course.Mention how this course will help you in making your career in your home country. Be passionate about job market of your home country and coming back to your country. Because "You'll not leave Canada" is one of the biggest reason for Student Visa refusal.

7.Travel history
If u av not travelled bfor, state the reason why u av decided to travel at this point of ur life, and how important the program is to ur career & personal development back home

8.Family Ties-Hime ties
U can talk about how children are apparent to family inheritance, and how u are obliged to take care of ur family (parent and siblings). U can attach their birth certificates

Secondly, talk bout Landed Properties (Documents, deed of assignment, Deed of conveyance,survey plans and other important doc.) to of prove ur Hometies

9. Proof of Funds
Mention that you have paid ur tuition fee or made a deposit of ur tuition fee and so so as amount has bin set aside by your sponsor for ur Tution fee (if not yet paid), so so amount for ur One year Living Expenses (might be more than one year) and so so amount for ur flight itinerary

10. Final Note
U can end it like this or in ur own language
Dear Sir/Madam, I hope that you will find all my documents in proper order and I kindly request you to process my visa application as soon as possible. I am very much thankful to you for giving me your valuable time to process my student visa application.


Your Sincerely,
write ur name and Surname

Goodevenin everyone
Pls is police certificate supposed to cost 40k? They said they will also take my finger print and also the certificate doesn't expire
Concerning this police report, I've discovered that the people in Lagos have higher hand than people from other states.
I did mine in Osogbo. I paid 12,000 for it. They took my fingerprints and I filled a form. I was told it will be sent to alagbon police station in Lagos. I waited for 4 days before I got the police report. Although the #40000 is outrageous, bargain for a fee if around that #12,000.

Hello, welcome to the thread. All the information she needs to apply for a master’s and also the study permit/visa can be found on this thread and also the old threads. You’ll gain a lot of info by reading through this thread and the previous ones. Please find the link to page one of thread 18 below.

https://www.nairaland.com/6321900/canadian-student-visa-thread-part

If she meets all the requirements she’ll be granted the visa regardless of her age. Older people get visas every day. You can tell the thread what course she wants her master’s in and you’ll get suggestions.

You can start by
1. Deciding on the course she wants
2. Check out the requirements and select a few schools
3. Apply for the admission
4. Start preparing visa documents
5. After getting the admission, you can apply for the visa


She can go with her whole family if she has really strong home ties. Otherwise, she can apply alone and bring her family later. Or apply with one or both kids and bring the rest later. There are many options based on her circumstance.

After reading through the thread, If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Best wishes
