Hi hi peeps. Pls is there anyone here who was denied visa before but was later approved after changing their program of choice. Pls I need to know urgently. Pls I need to speak to the person urgently. Thank you.
Stop flying blind, get ur gcms file first.
like I said if you have spent 2yrs on your current job going for a program in that field doesn't seem likely to fetch you a refusal.

@standupguy your GCMS is really very detailed and an eye opener..
Thank God you now know where to tackle and how to tackle it.
All the best sir!...
I can remember sometime last yr December when I said that this V.O got a lot strict than they used to be.

I am a witness to 3 people who were given TRVs ages 28,29 and 31. With serious age gaps in there adademic and work experience yet they did not present one single document of there personal finance OnlyJust there sponsors. In fact my past application was modelled after theirs and when I was refused the first I had no idea what gcms file was, so in confusion and coupled with the fact that my refusal letter didn't highlight my personal asset and finance, I reapplied again with out it.
only for them to highlight it the second time.

The truth is that this people don't want you in there country, they spend more time looking for faults in your application then they spend analyzing ur documents.

Yes I did. I submitted 2 statements. I studied estate management while I applied for global logistics and supply chain management. I did not tell them I have anybody in canada o. My sponsor is in USA
Adaora just request for your gcms file now!
That refusal letter is designed to through you off balanced whiyou they keep of the real problem with your application so you keep dashing them application fee.
Meanwhile all I can think about is that your sponsor is outside Nigeria.
I don't believe your job is the problem, it swings two ways, either you continue in your undergraduate study field or you continue in your job field so for me in dont think it's an issue.

Applied for the same thing after series of connsultation and I was given a strong go ahead.
Maybe when a decision from the VO comes concerning my application I can say something more affirming on that.
Advanced diploma is a post graduate program just like
graduate ceritifcate I know some one who has TRV.
TravelRe: Travelling To Canada Part 7 by standupguy(m): 1:13pm On May 15, 2015
So I am back from myself imposed exile.
Will be reapplying soon in a week afterI have paid my complete 2yrs tuition fee.

please request ur GCMS file before any reapplication before you damaged your history with more than one refusal.
My next and final application na solely baba God go do am.
If you see wetin this people write on top my own eh,

Basically they believed I didn't have funds to finance my education despite being sponsored by two my siblings whom I believe they have there record of sponsoring my older brother
them talk say I had no funds of my own( I couldn't blame them on that because I failed to include my own finance in both failed applications ie my shares and fixed deposit and SOA. I will be pointing out to thEm that those funds existed prior my two failed application that I neglected its importance since I had two sponsors). They even talk say my parents no get money, I wonder what brought about that one, when my sponsor was my blood sibling.

Then even lie join say they didn't see marital status of my sponsor.

The last bullet be say because my brother dey the same town wey my school dey, them say I just wan go join the guy o.
That one pain me pass, because he was still a student I another town when I applied and was admitted to the school. so it was just pure coincidence but they decided to indict me that on.
funny enough they didn't reference the fact that he was also sponsored the way i am being sponsored.
also they saw his a dress on the family form but didn't see the sponsors marital status on the same form....lol
This people no go kill person o


Anyway sha, I shall address all those squarely for this grand finally.
Good luck to everyone so far.

barcanista:
I have read this Oba/Igbo squabbles and I feel so irritated that the revered royal stool is being denigrated. What Kabiyesi Akiolu said was inappriopriate and uncalled for but we shouldn't allow that to be a platform to insult the Oba. If not for his age but for the seat he occupies. No catholic will be happy to see the Pope insulted neither will a Bini son smile when Oba of Benin is abused. We should try to refrain ourselves from causing more damage. Open confrontation is not the best way to douse the situation.

Vote Mr Jimi Agbaje(Lagos)
Vote Nyesome Wike(Rivers)
Vote Captain Iheanacho(Imo/APGA)
His highness made a very regrettable utterance but like I said after watching the video, I left he was joking which was evident by the laughing audience.
The shameful thing was people on here trying to justify what he said. So the insults you refer to we're mostly directed at people who were trying to justify it.

In democracy you vote any candidate who speaks to your issues. It's very simple.

What exactly did ur account officer tell u bout d Form A.. ?Cos I intend using it too..that same Diamond bank..
Using CBN FORM A is totally different, its quite easy sha just that its takes time and you need to have a dom account
I have used it before, all you need to do is provide them with a copy of your admission letter, the school wire bank accounts,your international passport, your degree results and NYSC certificate.
The Money will be taken from your savings account, converted at the official CBN exchange rate, deposited into you dom account then wire off to the school directly. the whole process could take up to a week.

what he is talking about is paying with your master card or visa card online.
Some schools send you an authorization form, you just fill in your card details and sign, then the money will be taken off your account at the bank rate. Most bank rates differ on this i heard Gtbank is very expensive sha. I haven't done it before but someone i know has.

The other is if you have already paid the acceptance fee and your my student page has been updated, you can then pay subsequent fees online with your credit card from your student page. You have to speak to your bank to confirm how to get your credit card to work on a foreign site.
That was what i asked the diamond bank guy, there customer care.

Goodmorning everyone, pls is there any Humber college student here that has paid his/her tuition fee via atm debit MasterCard?
I called the school yesterday to make half tuition payment $7727.50 via telephone with my diamond bank atm Visa card but it didn't work,, I've all my docs to submit for TRV online route bt my only delay is the tuition payment.
Pls I need ur suggestions thanks and God bless u all
Did you fill the authorization form and scanned to your school. Or you tried to pay online.
I Called diamondbank to make that inquiry too, they you have to setup an ipin or something like that before you can use your visa card of foreign website.
I hope your works because I will be using it too.

Too much fight going on in the house these days.
we need to take it easy o, i know the tension is high but we were them done knack akpako well well stil dey try maintain o.
I can relate to what @ deleyi was trying to say, sometimes you need that reassurance from someone who has gone through the process, especial as you are not using a professional consultancy
Right now I am looking to make a decision too for my next app, I have gothen a lot of advise from @ johncushion, that would havegreatly helped my previous application.


But I also want to ask the house, I have made my previous application with a sponsor and a co_sponsor.
Both sponsor and cosponsor are immediate family and I work in my cosponsors establishment.

since I am going to put my personal finance and asset, I wish to remove my cosponsor who I work with, my reason is so I don't come off as too dependent.
Using my co sponsor means submitting her company documents and SOA which it going to carry the same letter head and last name as my LOI, Payslip and salary review.
I feel weird about I just need to know it's ok to remove her without the V.O making reference to my older app And asking why my my co sponsor was removed.

Also I take God beg anybody for contact to a Good affordable immigration lawyer to help me with a reference letter after reviewing my application.
( affordable o!!!!!!!!)

It was a blow to see trade stable join olx.
I have sold a lot through both websites and trade stable have less scammers.

Olx on the other hand is very irritating.
Getting information as simple as the average price of a commodity you are interested in is very difficult on Olx. You see idiots posting thing for 20% percent the prize.
People even clone your advert and put there own location and numbers.

Trade stable was for better abeg.
For those comparing konga,jumia etc, stop being ignorant a commercial store is different from an open market website where everybody post ad without verification.

Water is a body fluid that help the internal milieu of the body maintain homeostasis. It doesn't need to be taken as suggested by the OP and it doesn't have the above therapeutic effect.

Drinking water first in the morning without brushing. Are you not flushing all those bacterias into your system?
How about you brush first before drinking the water, Any difference?
If you know the amount of bacteria in your stomach, you might result to drinking detol to kill them.
The bacteria in your mouth is no match to the acid in your stomach besides some bacteria help in food digestion.

I have been doing water therapy since 2012 when I discovered about it and I advise anyone who wishes to lead a toxin free life to give it a try.
the main challenge is making sure you are drinking a very clean water, if not, you are just increasing the number of germs in your body.
I drink dispenser water but i am thinking about boiling it over night make sure its at least 99.9% clean.
Second challenge is addiction, you need to control the amount you take, because there is such as water poisoning. And drinking close to bedtime gives you a restless night sleep because you need to frequently visit the bath room.

I disagree with you on this one. there are certain flaws that are prevalent with this model. two of the obvious are the shock absorbers and poor headlights which you notice over time. apart from these, the car is good in other aspects
Right on Both Counts.
Can't blame them on the shock absorber, they probably didnt have our death trap in mind while make there vehicles,
The headlight was the major upgrade in the 2000-2001 model.

Just checked d difference between Toyota & Mercedes benz.

What do you have to say?
For instance, Shock absorber, The shock absorber on a benz would definitely last longer than that on a toyota.
This is durability which can also be justified by the difference in prize.

An example of reliability is me being able to drive my Toyota Camry from Lekki to Surulere by 1:00am without fan belt(Cut).
Reliability is being able to drive from Ajah to Isolo after losing the functionality of a radiator fan.
Reliability is when your valves remain intact after loosing a timing belt.
Reliability is when i can pass through murky waters that affect mini Suvs peacefully without fear of my car stopping half way.
That my brother is reliability you can't try those on a benz or any european car.
Buy a reliable car today, BUY TOYOTA.

Toyota... I repeat Toyota!!!!! It's the most reliable car in the world. Fact.
I will never at any point in my life not own have a Toyota vehicle.
I call that 1998 Camry tinylight "Toyota Mistake".
Toyota mistakenly forgot to put any defect in that car.
that vehicle is perfect...!!!!!!

As a carlover I wish to experiment with other brands at some point but Toyota must remain my everyday car and it is none negotiable.
Ford is doing something good with their new ecboost engine which produces the torque of a V6 engine at the gas efficiency of an I4.

for those talking about German cars, I hate to burst your bubbles but reliability is not same as durability.
a durable car might not be reliable.

Hoping to graduate from Toyota to Lexus though.
