Really what they say about when it’s your time, nothing can stop it is really true. My story is a testimonial to that fact.

This journey started in 2017. I got back from the US and applied to a school in Texas, got admitted and I went on to apply for visa. I went with confidence thinking, what’s the worse that can happen? I was refused. I applied again and was refused twice again. I lost all hopes of traveling. I decided to look at Canada, unfortunately all the schools started rejecting me. I couldn’t get even one school not to talk of visa. So this year, I decided to change my plans and went for the UK, I immediately got admitted into 3 schools and with scholarships. My hope was restored. But my brother was still bent on me applying to Canada so I decided to give it another try. I applied to Trent and University of Windsor, Trent refused but I got Windsor. So I rushed to apply for visa to beat the May 15th deadline. To cut the story short, God came through for me. Below is my timeline.

First time applicant.
Age: 41
School: University of Windsor
Course: MSc Actuarial science
Submitted: May 12
Biometric request: May 13
Biometric done: May 14
Nse request: May 25th
Upfront Medical: updated to pass June 16th

Nothing else, no ghost update, nothing. I ordered my Gcms notes June 29th, I got it July 30th. I saw recommend interview. The wait continued until today.

I had given up hope that i even started my UK processing. I paid deposit in the Uk because at this point, I was tired, mind and body.

BVL and PPR: August 11 ( This day will forever be in my mind).

I want to thank everyone who has supported me in this journey, you all are angels in disguise. May all the PPR hopefuls get their joy soonest.

It has ended in praise.

Stephblues:
What God cannot do does not exist.

PPR just dropped. I am screaming. I will be back with updates.

So this is how it feels !!!!!

Yes they have. That’s complete as well.

lawfree638:
Have they verify your admission letter?

It's usually the last verification done in your GCMS note.

It will end in praise.
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 19 by Stephblues(f): 8:45am On Aug 02, 2021
For me, under verification, it shows that they have completed checks on my mbs, IElTS and a few other items. Does it mean it’s complete? Though Eligibility is showing recommend interview.

lawfree638:
Eligibility has not started. Not cool at all. Na wa o

Congratulations to everyone that got PPR today. May tomorrow bring more good news our way. The wait isn’t easy. And to all those who didn’t get, don’t relent, your testimony is on the way.

Thanks a lot. That puts my mind at ease.

EmeeNaka:
No don't bother about that, I suggest. We don't really know how they take their note. Even if they give you one year Permit, you can still get extension. Don't do anything at all

It’s the same for me but I had to try multiple times before it worked. Also clear your cache.

It’s not for one year, it’s a 2 year course. I don’t know how it shows 1 when I filled two. Could it be a mistake? Please what can I do as regards that ? Thank you.

EmeeNaka:
Your Application is moving fine. Your Eligibility Review is done. Background checks are in order.
But that Tuition Fee is expensive o. Just for 1year of Study?

Hello everyone, my gcms notes came in this morning. Please what do you make of this? May 12th applicant, NSE route.

TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 19 by Stephblues(f): 7:57am On Jul 28, 2021
Yes that’s the link but I didn’t register, I walked to the center. I stay around Abule Egba and I took my vaccine at the Ifako general hospital, college road. I don’t know other centers around that axis.

Lekiboboe:
For Lagos Residents or those who got their first dose in Lagos, is this link to book/reg. to get the Vaccine

https://publicreg.vaccination.gov.ng/

if NO, what is the link?

And where can someone who stay in the axis of Command-Ipaja, Abule-egba, ile epo at Alimosho LG get the first dose

Thanks
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 19 by Stephblues(f): 7:54am On Jul 28, 2021
Good morning. Yes you can. Some people travel with just a single dose and have it completed over there. Just that you won’t be exempted from the quarantine.

Lekiboboe:
Good morning great minds

Can one take a First Dose of Vaccine in his Home Country , and take the 2nd Dose in Nigeria?

Or

compulsorily, both doses must be taken Nigeria

Thanks

My quest for visa started way back in 2003/2004; during Law School/after the death of my father/NYSC.

First UK visa application (Visit) was in 2004 - refused.
Second UK visa application (Visit) in 2006 - refused.
Third UK visa application (Study) in 2008 - refused.
Fourth UK visa application (Visit) in 2011 - approved.
Fifth UK visa application (Visit) in 2020 - approved, but wasn’t used cos of COVID.

MY PEOPLE, WITH GOD BY YOUR SIDE:

Sorry about the refusal. Please order your gcms notes before reapplying so you can tackle any issues raised.

We are in the same situation. I applied May 12, got NSE request by 25th and review of documents started immediately. Till now, nothing. So yes it’s obvious it takes more than the 20days stated.

Jhyd0202:
Good morning, I applied via NSE and my document has been received since May but till now we have not heard from them, I think it's taking longer than expected which is 20 days after. If there is anyone we are on the same rail, can his or her pls signify? If they've heard anything from them. Thank you
