I got this from my International Students Board ..I think guys should know about it its a scam targeting new International Students

It has brought to our attention that a scam may be going around targeting newly arrived students. In our case, the student received a call from a caller identifying himself as CIC (caller ID revealed call centre number, 1-888-242-2100) and informing him that he has committed misrepresentation for entering a different birth year on the custom declaration form (a white form visitors fill in upon entry to Canada). The student is then asked to make an immediate payment of $750 within half an hour or risk being removed from Canada. The caller provided file number, case number and reference number and use legal words such as removal order and misrepresentation to make the call appear legitimate. If your students encounter similar unfortunate experience, CIC has advised to immediately contact the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.

Hi guys,
Saw this online and i felt it should be shared,cos its true..Living in canada might involve some unplanned expenses really particularly the tax part...13% for St John's here..what you gain in tuition ..ready to pay it in tax..

...but as naija consain..we dey always rough am...lol

There may be some expenses you never thought about when coming to Canada. Well here are five different costs and expenses you should keep in mind when you come to Canada:

1. Winter clothes. Canada has quite the cold winters. Depending on where you are in Canada climates can differ from lows of 0 degrees Celsius all the way down to -30 in some cases. Make sure you take into consideration all the different things you may want to pick up to stay warm. Sweaters, jackets, gloves and long-johns! All valid accessories you may want to into before coming to Canada.

2. Snow gear. Snow may be something you are not accustomed to. Canadian snow storms can average between 10 to even 20 so a pair a boots and snow pants may be something you want to invest in. Other than that snow sports and activities is definitely something you may want to get involved with. Skating, snowboarding, skiing these are all common activities you may want to invest in!

3. Taxes. In Canada, we have a number of taxes you may want to take into consideration when coming here. Sales tax is often something people outside of Canada may not know of. When purchasing a product or good there is a sales tax that is often not shown on the prices of goods. Keep in mind when you are looking at a price tag you need to add a number of sales taxes. Depending on where you are in Canada taxes do differ.

4. Long Distance Communications. Being away from home can be hard. With cultural, social and educational transitioning you may become home-sick. Make sure to save some money to keep in contact with family and friend back home.

CareerRe: I Want To Quit My Banking Job by SleemB: 6:51am On Jul 15, 2014
This is one of d questions i dread most..reason is no one will ever tell you what you want to hear bro..
My 2 cent?...if you decide to quit without another alternative...know that you r taking a big dive..But think of it...Huge successes are usually for risk takers...you can decide to stay conservative and suffer in endurance till you are sacked...or you can start working out ur exit strategy now,bt at any point u leave ...
Why dont u save up and try and get a foreign degree (dont try UK o,dem go collect ur money and send u back afta a yr)in a good country..u may not get all u think u want..bt u ll be better off on both sides..
Dont think u want to do business becos u wont be able to monitor it if u r in operations....if u r married ..discuss with ur spouse ..u guys shld be ready to make sacrifices to better ur life...naija banking job can make life and marriage dull and unexciting...or try change to marketing..it gives time to plan other things..even ur exit...still my two cents

Hello all,
I need guidance and advice on my second visa application against Sept 2014.
I got admission to MUN for engr'ng management earlier this year(for Sept 2013) and I got an agent for the visa application.though my school fees was 22k CAD,i had a closing balance of over 6m though about 3million left some weeks after,I was denied based on SPONSORSHIP NOT CREDIBLE.
A friend that works with an oil firm wanted to co-sponsor then but my agent said it might not fly cos I already had a family and it might be difficult for the VO to swallow that.Though I am married with a kid,my wife lost her job late last year,so i could not add her salary account statement.
MUN has sent my new deferral offer against 2014 and I plan to start the application myself.Please i need all the right guidance I can get.My monthly salary is about 220K per month.kindly advise how best to package the application to avoid the sponsorship credibility issue again.

kayconsult: @ sleem-B, did u get a letter of employment and study leave letter from your employer? Did u submit a c of o of any building to show u have home tiles? I don't think 6 million is too small for the visa application, I no of ppl that even had 3.5 million and we're given study visa. In a nutshell, I will be willing to help but let's see all the documents you submitted along with your application?


these are the docs I submitted:
1.statement of salary account with a closing bal of 6m,though about 3m came in the month of submission.
2.Payslip of about 200k net.
3.pension statement of about 1,9m
4.employment letter stating that i earn about 4.4m annually.
5.official employment letter from my manager (stating that i will have to handover weeks before my leave)
6.my wife's birth cert and passport.
7.my son's birth cert.
8.payment receipt of 2000CAD from MUN.
these are the vital docs I could remember.
I could not get a leave letter as i am not qualified according to my organization's policy on study leave,I have a land that was valued at about 2.5m as at the time of application but my agent did not include it cos it has no C.of O.
Now i have a friend that wants to co-sponsor,he has a good cash flow and some assets.can it work?
my peeps,please this my question is still pending?Baba siga,@kjbobo,chriGo et al...e n wo mi ran ni!,please help review my situation ...a friend wants to help..can it fly?
