Hello house Good afternoon.. I want to confirm something. If you plan on residing in Canada after you’re done with your One year program:.
How possible is that??

If you graduate in a one-year PGWP-eligible program, you will get 1 year Post Graduation Work Permit (PGWP): if you graduate in a two- or more year PGWP-eligible program, you'll get 2-3 years of PGWP.

If you see that 1 year PGWP is not going to be enough for you to qualify for PR, ensure you enroll in another one-year course immediately after the first one, this will make it to be two years, hence, you'll get 2-3 years of PGWP.

Pls can gurus in the house,help me with the right decision and step to take

I think you should be focused on getting admission in one of the universities enlisted by Mpower.

Also contact Mpower so as to get acquainted with their requirements.

Pgirl08:
Pls I am new here I want to pay my acceptance fee fit connestoga college with fore A....I dont know what tp fill at the swift code and correspondence address.

Leave out Correspondence Bank details.

If you check your invoice (Flywire, CIBC etc), the instructions about IBAN and SWIFT code are there.

SWIFT code is also BIC code.
IBAN is also ABA or Routing code

JDB55:
Ahhh... God forbid, i'm positive i'll get it before Sept.
i'm tired walahi

francisxbee:
Go to your school. There'll be those who will help you get it for a fee. Forget strike matter. Put ear for ground observe.

It's better you follow the advice given above or
if you know you will get it before September, I will advise you get a conditional offer of admission to at least hold a spot in January/May.

JDB55:
Honestly, i don't know when this people intend to call-off this strike and the longer it takes, time keeps running. And I'm looking forward to January 2023 intake. You made mentioned of a conditional admission, if i can be offer that no problem, then whenever ASUU calls off strike, i can send whatever docs that they need.
@Lekiboboe @ShowYoung @Makano @Mrprolink

What happens if you still haven't been able to get your transcript by Jan?

AfolabiZamani:
Capebreton university

What kind of information do you want?

JDB55:
What would you recommend for somebody who studied Education Accountancy, but due to ASUU strike, been unable to get my transcript. Also, programs with co-op would be of great help if you can recommend any for me.
2yrs Masters in a Uni seems to be kinda outrageous.

Get your transcript first so as to consider a post graduate study (PGD or Masters): without your undergraduate transcript and certificate, you will be seen as a secondary school cert holder.

Some colleges or universities may be able to give you a conditional offer of admission though.

You can go for Accounting, Business Administration, Management, Business Analytics or education related courses.

You have been posting the same question, but you're not responding to the questions people are asking you.

If you answer, they may be able to recommend schools and programs for you.

Funmilayoo:
Good day everyone. Please I need help, I applied for my student visa on February 10, 2022, and did biometrics on February 15, using an immigration consultant. Around May I asked for a screenshot of my profile page cos I don’t have access to my page, I noticed my background check and eligibility have started, and I did another upfront medical on June 10, 2022, cos the one I did last year has expired.
I have my application number and UCI number but I don’t have the password, can I order for my GCMS notes or raise a web form myself?
I had to defer from May to September, September is just 2 months away no ppr yet, I don't know what to do, I will appreciate any advice given. Thanks

If your email is used to send correspondences with IRCC and you have your UCI and application number; you will be able to order for your GCMS notes.

Alternatively, you can ask the consultant to order for the GCMS notes on your behalf.

Misstolaly:
Did anyone get this type of feedback and eventually got their Form A transaction processed?

My application has moved to the Supervisor phase but saw that the reviewer made the comment in the attached email. This is being processed with Globus Bank.

I need help with addressing this urgently.

The bank is actually telling you in plain English that even if you wait, there is no FX available. They can't disburse what they don't have.

Rush down to less known banks like Jaiz, TAJ, Heritage or Providus bank to open a savings account immediately and have a new form A filled

Shegzymilan:
Please i need some help, i applied for canada study visa, but i got a correspondence message from them. Assets and financial status insufficient. I need some information on it

Assets and Financial Status Insufficiency means you do not have sufficient financial resources to successfully complete your study in Canada.

You may order for your GCMS notes to enable you pinpoint the exact reason for this.

You need to work on your POF.

Emma7680:
Hello everyone, it’s my first time on here so I hope I am on the right trend.
I got admission for this fall 2022 and I have to pay the sum of 10,000 Canadian dollars as part of my school fees payment, but the thing is that I don’t know how to go about the payment, I have the funds but it’s the method of payment that is the problem. I want to use the normal dollar bank rate but the bank is telling me for that process they can do only form A which would take a lot of time and my deadline is 30th of June. My school is George brown college and they use the CIBC bank. Please if anyone knows how to make payment please let me know and sorry if someone has asked this question before because I don’t know how to use nairaland yet. Thank you as I wait your helpful response.

Use Form A by opening a savings account with any one of Jaiz, TAJ, Heritage, Providus bank. They'll process your Form A if you can still make it

Eyegroup:
Undergraduate. Please
.have try USA two times denied by the embassy without reason ..Now try to go for Canada no admission ...offer since march

Kindly provide your educational qualification and grade and discipline so as to recommend a school and course for you.

Litey8:
Okay. Thought as much. It’s weird cos last week no option to select July. Just checked today and saw July only to find out that no slot is available. If I can get a date first week or second week of July in Qlife then it’s better to wait.

Don't wait, book for IOM first; if eventually QLife opens a slot for earlier dates, you can book a slot with QLife and ignore IOM

johnstan:
Good evening house,

Please who knows how i can get to IOM Ikeja from Palm groove for my medicals tomorrow and any tips as to the documents I'm supposed to take along?

From Palmgroove, board a bus to Maryland: from Maryland, treck to Ikeja GRA side and mount a trycycle to Isaac John Street, GRA, Ikeja.

Go there with your original Int'l passport, appointment letter/evidence and evidence of payment.

Litey8:
I just checked iom now. Is there any difference between doing medicals in Qlife and Iom? Might just proceed with iom since I can see an available date.

I await your response.

Thanks for your support

Both IOM and QLife are the approved Panel Clinics by IRCC.

I have a feeling QLife would still update their website and show more slots for first week and second week in July.

Litey8:
Thanks for your response. All dates in July on Qlife website shows “No Slots Available”. It was same since last week for June.

Please how do I book an appointment ASAP?

Try IOM here https://mymedical.iom.int/apps/omas/#_frmHome

I have just checked now, the next available date is July 25. Someone might pick it before you book it.

Also, always visit QLife website and refresh, there will still be open slots in early or mid July or you can call them.

Litey8:
I need some clarification please. Below is my timeline:

Submitted Application on 5th of April
Biometric on 20th of April. Biometric got updated same day on my account.

I haven’t received any further updates till date. I didn’t do upfront medicals. I’m waiting for the request.

I applied through old portal(Gckey) and processing time is showing 12 weeks on the website. I’m to resume this fall.

Based on my timeline, Do I need to start sending emails now or still wait?

I await your inputs.

Thanks

Your application is less than 12 weeks, do not panic. Work is ongoing underground.

Another thing you could do to make them 'remember' your application is to book upfront medical examination.

Booking for medical may take weeks or more than a month to find a slot. I advise you book for a space now even though the next available date may be next month.

By so doing, they'll update your medical examination after your medical test has taken place: at least, this might make them touch other things like start eligibility review in your application as well .

Ableman101:
Ok its there. But one more thing. The invoice I got from CIBc was not the fee I should originally pay so I am waiting to redo a new payment after 2 to 3 days. But I want to know if the swift code and Iban code doesn’t change for the bank so I can continue with filling the form A.

IBAN and Swift code are always the same for the same institution if the bank account number is static.

Ableman101:
Hello boss. Please in filling form A. What am I to fill in the IBan and swift code section. Is it the ones generated by the school payment portal because I don’t have it with my personal bank account.

Check your invoice from Flywire, CIBC or others, Swift Code must be written there. For IBAN, if it's not written there, you will see Routing number; insert the routing number.

Arike999:
I have been a silent reader
Please help I lost my phone and just got a new one yesterday,I log in and I already have 8days to do medical and all the clinic is fully booked

Try a walk-in and explain to them. Since you got a medical examination request, and it's not upfront, either IOM or QLife will find you a slot.

Deronke1:
Sending webforms and email, must it be sent with the email used in application or I can use another email in as much as the application number is stated?

You must use the email used in your application.

Terminalia:
Hello house. I was denied a visit visa in 2020 and I declared then that I was running an MBA program., even attached my admission letter. Now with ASUU strike palaver, I'm thinking of dropping out and pursuing a PGD in Canada. Is there a need for me to mention in my SOP that I am have dropped out of the MBA program. The reason is that I don't know if my previous file would be revisited when I apply for study visa. Kindly advise.

You should not conceal the fact that you were running an MBA program in the past: you should update them that the program was not successful due to some reasons, and that you wish to pursue a PGD in Canada now.

Can one submit a statement of account showing series of transactions made to your fiancée account as common law spousal relationship?

Please read this about evidences to show common-law relationship;

chytai:
Please if I'm going for 2 years program and applying with my family, do i have to show POF for two years or a year? And if I have fund for only a year and I'm ready to explain with evidence (blocks of rented shops in the city) in my sop that I have means of paying my remaining tuition and living expenses for me and my dependants for the remaining year will it be okay?


@showyoung @lekiboboe @frankrobbn1

If you are staying for just one year, you can provide POF for just one year, but if you're going for 2 years, it is better you provide POF for 2 years.

Providing means of finance which is not readily available leaves you at the mercy of the visa officer which is always a slim chance.

Blakmandk:
Can one apply for a fiancée after landing. Even though there’s no marriage ties yet?

If you can establish evidence of common-law spousal relationship, yes, you can apply for your fiancé.

Evidences of common-law spousal relationship are sharing and living together in the same apartment for at least one year, sharing or using the same bank account, bill, Insurance etc. Children can also be considered as connection between both.

Canada recognizes common-law relationship. This is a mutual agreement between two people to live together in a manner which depicts that of marriage.

Hiralegend:
Good day all and glad to be here.
Please can I apply for an MSW to a Canadian university after being refused a US student visa in May ,2022( based on not being able to convince the VO of return after Masters studies) and in June 2022 (based on wrong appointment schedule)?
Please your knowledge and experience will be highly appreciated.
Thank you

The US study visa refusal does not prevent you from applying to Canada. Just ensure you tell the truth and package your application well.

danielck22:
Hello All, a huge pleasure being on here. Read through some of the contents on here but most of it addressed those applying for post graduate studies.
Please I wish to apply to MUN (Memorial University of Newfoundland) for an undergraduate degree in Computer Science(IT systems), please I really need all help I can get. My dad is my sponsor. Note - I'm 25 years of age. Had some health issues and couldn't get through with my current degree program.
Question 1- Would my age affect my application as my high school cert. was issued 2014?
Q2- Which would be more recommended a college or a uni?
Q. 3- What documents would I require and processes if any? (I am traveling alone)
Would like to get the upfront medicals, need help on how to proceed.
Please I would appreciate every help I can get on here, thanks in advance...

1. Your age would not lower your chances.
2. Either a college or university is good, your study is what you should focus on.
3. You need to seek admission first, after admission and honouring the terms and conditions therein, you can proceed to visa application. Documents needed for visa application include but are not limited to POF documents, passport bio-data page, birth certificate, SOP, LOA, tuition deposit/fee if any etc.

In conclusion, everything depends on how you package your application and address all the factors that determine visa decision outcome (Home Ties, Purpose of Visit, Academic/Career Progression, Financial and Personal Assets etc)

Blakmandk:
a friend in Canada told me not to submit a web form until the processing time is complete and you don’t have a response. He said it will make you look desperate and the visa officer might deny it.

Visa Officer cannot deny your visa because you submitted a webform.

The content and attachment of the webforms will state the reason why you are contacting them.

Your application may be delayed only if you provided additional information or documents that could greatly impact the outcome of your application. Even if they have made a decision, they could hold on to consider the new documents or information you have just shared: hence this could cause delay but not denial.

If a conference is two weeks away and your processing time has reached the stipulated normal time and you are not getting any response, it is natural that you contact them because of time.

mightysam002:
After ordering the note, would it affects my normal processingtime if my response is rightly due.

GCMS notes only shows the background processes going on.

If you want to disturb them, you can start sending them emails.
