You can request for your medicals from the IOM Ikeja, because I did and got mine in my email. You can write them and you'll get it i think in less than 24hours or so.

Where did you do your medicals? Have you tried emailing the hospital?

Good Everyone,

I am a first time Canadian study permit applicant and the response I got was a refusal. I requested for a GCMS note and I discovered that there were various mix-up in the documents on the part of IRCC which influenced a refusal decision.

According to the officer:
I have considered the following factors in my decision. I am not satisfied that the documentation provided in support of the applicant's financial situation demonstrates that funds would be sufficient or available to support their stay in Canada. Proof of fund on file - bank statements are from a microfinance bank, which have severe limitations to accessing funds from within Canada. I am not satisfied the applicant will have unhindered access to a stable source of funds.

According to IRCC, below are the factors upon which the decision was made.

Program start date and destination did not match Letter of Acceptance
Alawiye Lucia Ajoke (indicated as Mother)
Proof fund bank statement from a Microfinance Bank
Tuition Fee
Living Expenses
Transportation.

Letter of acceptance states that the program will start on the 1st of May, 2023. Meanwhile, the GCMS note stated that the commencement date is 2023/04/20 which is the date I indicated as the date of arrival on my application summary form.

Alawiye Lucia Ajoke is not the name of my mother neither did I state in any part of my application form such a name.

Regarding the Microfinance Bank Statement, I do not or have I ever own a microfinance bank account whatsoever and I did not include such a document in my application. My bank statement is from one of Nigeria's foremost commercial bank Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB) account and I can access my funds anywhere in the world.

In terms of Tuition, Cost of Living, and Transportation. I have a student loan of $30,000 equivalent of $43,256 CAD to cover for tuition fee, cost of living and more. I have over 8,000,000 naira / $24,768 CAD in my account that will take care of my transportation, living expenses and more.

According to the IRCC portal, a sum total of 10,000 CAD + 3,000 CAD = 13,000 CAD is what is required for living expenses Transportation.

Again, the refusal letter states that I do not have sufficient funds to cater to the cost of living and transportation of any member(s) of my family traveling with me. This part is also false because I clearly stated that I will be traveling alone.

I have deferred my admission from May, 2023 to September, 2023. Please I need assistance on how to respond to all these with a Letter of Explanation as I plan on requesting for a reconsideration. A copy/format or sample of LoE, help or advice will be highly appreciated
