Hello house. Seeing some people get their ppr is very ancouraging . My application has been hanging since May 2021. All they document they have asked from me for update I have provided them. Still no response till now. Its really fustrating . Don't know what else to think. The agent that assisted me they have also sent web forms mail tirelessly but they have refuse to provide update on my application.

Please is there any else I can do because this is really fustrating. Am tired of waitng I won't lie

d2nn:
Gurus in the house, come to my rescue!
I submitted my application January 25, did biometrics on the 27th of January 2023.
Up till this very moment I haven’t received any response from IRCC, I’ve sent webform severally but no response.
My dashboard says Eligibity Review has started already, it’s 9 weeks already and no response whatsoever!
Please what else can I do?

Shrunkwriter:

Pls anyone has an idea on this ?

Eniolakate:
I'm just curious, guys.

If one has been refused a visa before, say visit visa to U.S about 7 years ago, is it necessary to mention that? If yes, hope it won't jeopardize ones application.

Hi good evening.. my case is a little different
I started my study permit visa application in November 2021, and up till date IRCC hasn’t made a decision on my application. On my portal on the Final decision, it keeps showing; “Your application is in progress, we will send a message once the final decision has been made”
.
It has gone on for too long and I am just worried why it’s taking this long. Which has caused me to defer my admission for the 3rd time now. And my current admission is for May and still no decision has been made.

Attached is the details about my application status from my portal.

Bamz555:

Evening lovely People..I just got my PPR yesterday,but my LOA has expired since January 9 2023 and I have been asked to submit my passport for stamping between now and 30 days..I have written my school since last month to renew my application for September 2023 intake and they haven't sent me new LOA till this moment.. And my International Passport will expire May 2024..If I take my Passport to embassy for stamping within the 30 days that I was instructed,how many month stamped visa will be on my Passport. And if luckinly I receive a new LOA before the 30 days,will I need to inform IRCC before I take my Passport to the embassy or is it advisable I inform them after my Visa has been stamped.Please I need response on this.

Hi guys. Thank you so much to everyone for sharing their stories
I have a peculiar situation and I would love your help please. I didn’t consider going the school route until last month (I was hoping to try express entry again ), so I went ahead to apply to Conestoga college and I got admission for May 2023 . I am to make payment for first semester by March .

Now these are my questions and concerns;
- I intend to go with my kid (less than a year) and my husband. How much do we need in total
- I intend to get the POF from a family friend . Since I don’t have six months for the money to sit in my account, do I tell them to sponsor me instead .
- How much do I need to have myself in my account
- is it possible I get my study visa before May
Please any additional information you might have for me will be appreciated as I’m so overwhelmed with all the information here and I’m confused on where to start from

- I should also mention that I have an active visitor visa that will be expiring soon .

Thank you

Hi everyone, does anyone by chance know what an MBS statement is, and if there is any advantage of using MBS instead of normal printed statement for study permit application? Thanks!

nana101:
Hi. Do you know if another message to go pick up the passport will be received. Or this is the message that will be sent and none afterwards. I also received the message.

Cuppycak3:
Good morning everyone please I just got this email from vac (I will attach it below)
It says my passport is ready for collection at vac Abuja but I submitted in vac office Lagos. Does this mean I have to go pick it up in Abuja?

Sheillaa:
Dear people, please friend needs advice. She got a job in Canada and trying to process her visa and about paying for Medicals but the agent told her she can do medicals by proxy instead travelling from sokoto where she’s based to Abuja, but will cost money cos they have someone in there.
Has anyone experienced this before? What do you guys advise?

Lawode:
Good evening guys, Glory to God!!!!!! our testimony came in early! Family of four. Student permit for wife and SOWP for me. We did all by ourselves and with the help of God, and the hope and inspiration given by the application details provided by @Oloking and @Dayo96 ( Dear Brother, the saving project worked). @Tolulope1 thanks for being so warm and helpful. We submitted the usual documents so there is nothing to list in that regard except the few unique ones like:
a) a letter confirming my remote work arrangement, as opposed to letter for leave of absence ( I can't leave my job ).
b) Documents confirming annual emolument of sponsor ( I am sponsoring my wife) ,
c) Applicant's and Sponsor's Employment documents
d) One year pay slip of sponsor
e) One year statement of account ( Naira and Dorm)
f) International training certificates
g) Letter of Sponsorship (detailing my income and how the funds available were made, the huge transfers into my wife's account from Bonuses earned last year, and the corresponding payslips)
h) Wife's SOP ( 22 pages or so, detailing every aspect of the application. Why she wants to study PGD after Masters, why she is traveling with family, etc, she was very sincere in that write up)
i) Letter of Intent from me ( stating my true intentions, the need to be with my family, the situation surrounding my job and why I had to go to Canada with my job)
j) Bill and receipts for children had in the US
(k) Explanation of the intent to sell the dollars in my Dorm at the parallel rate.
l) Commitment to fall back on my RSA should I lose my job or sell two of my vehicles
m) Hometies - Job, work benefits ( I have a lot to lose in benefits if I don't come back, and this is the absolute, verifiable truth), personal relationship with employer, established profession etc)
n) Travel history ( UK, US, UAE - existing US visa
o) Plans to convert 25% of RSA towards mortgage under the new policy in that regard.
p) I had to state a commitment towards monthly savings to shore up my proof of fund for living expenses in the second year. We have funds for the first year.
q) We paid the first year tuition.

These are things that easily come to mind.

My observations and advice:

1. Tell your story truthfully and back it up with as much evidence as you can get, it is easier selling the truth.
2. Explain every deposit
3. Have your sponsor transfer substantial but explainable funds into your account ( all funds were transferred into my wife's account)
4. Please make a joint application if you have the funds, don't state your spouse is your home tie when you know you will want them to join you later ( say the truth)
5. Use the MBS
6. Travel history helps with quicker record verification ( it is not a major factor, but it helps buttress the fact that you are not trying to Japa)
7. Provide details of your registered business if you have one, otherwise show other means of social establishment in Nigeria
8. Do not do half measure, go all out to prove the facts that you state, again this boils down to if you are saying the truth.
9. Give a detail description of your study plan. Prepare your SOP like a tough interview question and answer session. Address all the issues sincerely ( your truth is your truth, don't try to play smart. e.g. my siblings are abroad and I didn't hide that, just stated that I have always returned to Nigeria in spite of that)
10. Show a reasonable career progression. Don''t jump from Customer Service to Nursing or Health Care Assistance without a solid explanation.
11. Research and do it yourself if you can, otherwise, provide all the information , including the SOP and make sure you can see yourself and not a stranger in the story being presented on your behalf. It is easy for one to forget a lie but the truth never fades.
12. Huge funds without detailed explanation of the source will work against you
13. Don't be afraid to transfer lump sum so far there is a good, plausible explanation.
14. This is a good time to apply, do it now, the time line might get worse again - I was going to continue to save until I have at least 20million, in addition to the fees for the second year tuition for my wife, but @Dayo96 and @Olokings story on guaranteed savings encouraged me. ( I still intend to continue to save until the money is complete, but we already of the visa, so it is good to just get on with it and hope that the truth will make you free.
15. This is one situation where the strength of man cannot promise success, there is the huge element of the grace of God. Please acquaint yourself with God, let this mission bring you close to Him and the knowledge of His will. Be sure God wants you to do this and live your life in the fear of God.
