Hello. Does anyone here go to Centennial college? I need to ask a few questions

emmy4Gold:
Good evening good people and fellow Nigerians. Please I need clarification on this, "My visa application was refused in December 2016. I want to reapply again" Do I need to do another biometric

Anamekele:
Purpose of visit and got gcms note. There was nothing in it

CampusCastle:
Thank you.

Yes, I'm applying for an undergraduate degree.

Do secondary Schools give academic transcript? I have never heard of it before. I thought it's only tertiary institutions that provide transcripts.
I'm guessing that will be hard to get o

Is there any alternative

CampusCastle:
Please, guys, I need help.

[/b]Which one is a secondary school transcript? Is it the same WAEC/NECO result.[b]

I applied to Dalhousie University and they asked for 2 academic transcripts.

PHST Partial High School Transcript and
Final High School Transcript.

Who have applied to this school before, please

benque:
Sorry I Don come with my questions again. But where do documents for proof of relationship to sponsor come under? Should they all be scanned with the statement of account of the sponsor?

Aisha77:
OK I get your point, from all the applicants statement don't u think it might be a new trend. My application was barely 3 weeks, one other guy here was about 10 days and at least over 20 applicant that we know got the letter same time. Well let keep watching as events unfold.

Hello!

I'm quite new here and I have something really disturbing me about Canadian travels...

Here is the thing

I am a graduate. I studied Medical Laboratory Science as an undergraduate program here in Nigeria. I am currently working with an agency here in Nigeria and they got two admission offers for me
1. A Diploma program in Environmental Technician Field and Lab (2 years program)
2. Post Graduate Health Analytics (1year program)

On the course of asking questions to people around me, I decided to go for the 2years Diploma program. I already paid for the tuition

But in the course discussion with one of my friends , he said that since I have done an undergraduate program here in Nigeria that I would have gone for the PGD (1yr) why go for the Diploma 2yr.... I told him that it was because of the yrs inviolved.

So now I have contacted the agency to know how they can write the school to revoke my admission offer for the masters program and then write to the school that gave me the diploma course to know if they could give me a Graduate Diploma Course to replace the undergraduate diploma that I have already paid for. They also applied to another school for a PGD program as well.

Right now I'm waiting for 3 offer letters.

Please I need an advice....

Should I continue with the undergraduate Diploma course ?
If Yes what else can I do to increase my chances of getting my visa approved ?
Or should I wait to choose the school for PGD when the offer comes out

Please I need answers because I only have limited time to make decisions.

Aisha77:
thanks for being honest and leave the positive part. It couldn't have been a mistake to forget medical update. Smh for this people sha. I had everything I could think of.

Aisha77:
Hello, been a silent reader and just had a concern to comment.

I applied for study visa with upfront medicals on the 20th of may and just got biometrics correspondence mail. Medicals is not updated.

What does this mean..

Josade69:
Good morning guys, please how do I counter this type of reason for refusal in a subsequent applocation;

"I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in
subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your personal assets and financial status."

The applicant is young, so she did not submit any properties and got a scholarship to cover her tution. Kindly help me @frankrobbn1 and other gurus. Thanks for your help.

Anamekele:
They just hit me now
Dear ...
Thank you for your interest in visiting Canada. After careful review of your temporary resident visa application and supporting documentation, I have determined that your application does not meet the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) and Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR). I am refusing your application on the following grounds: • I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on the purpose of your visit. You are welcome to reapply if you feel that you can respond to these concerns and can demonstrate that your situation meets the requirements. All new applications must be accompanied by a new processing fee.

Hey Guys I just got an update confirming my biometric validity.

JustMellow:
Your responses to people's issue always make me fall in love with you ( no homo). You are such a great person!
Hello agroNACT,

The new development in securing more funding is a welcoming improvement especially towards your financial status to acquire a much focused attention to actually study without thinking to work or panicking to see through your Canadian studies.

The area of your financial status "towards your Canadian/International studies" has been settled amicably but what you now have to focus on is your financial status "towards your family composition" esp if you married. If you ain't married, please ignore this advise of setting of a savings account or that of your spouse will suffice to deposit/save/transfer funds for the well-being or welfare of your family, it doesn't have to be huge maybe 2m - above. This could likewise be explained as an emergency or backup funds for the family to support the earnings of your spouse in your absence as she is gainfully employed.

In justifying your financial status towards your family composition, you can do this:

1. Attach your spouse's employment letter, payslips, CAC(if self employed). No need to include her bank statement to show the emergency funds transferred/saved but you can sound it convincing in your SOP

2. At least you can pay for 3 terms school fees for your kids(if any) then append the receipt to your application.

3. If reside in a lease, show rent payment receipt made/extended, if possible draw out a contract extension lease signed by your land owner and you.

4. If you do business, show evidence or draw a link of your spouse been in charge in your absence.

5. Get your spouse to write a letter of approval/support for your international studies and the provisions made/set aside by you that would cater for their needs and miscellaneous expenses in your absence. Herein, your spouse can then garnish from point 1-4 for you which should also correlate with your SOP.

Also, you done well to include a cosponsor, not that you won't be able to secure your SP as a self sponsored but its a right move getting a cosponsor whether a third party or not BUT I will advise you to change the title to a Sponsor because you is still self sponsored with a closing balance of 1.2m esp if you have a spouse, let the sponsor alleviate that burden.

The sponsor now don't need to pay or transfer a dim for your application purpose, what should be done is to state the responsibility to pay for your flight itinerary and other miscellaneous expenses upon your arrival to help you settle comfortably in the LOS. You might want to consider this:

1. In the LOS, your sponsor should intuitively construct points by points expatiating why the sponsorship and how come you, and what's the share from the benefits of such sponsorship.

2. He should avoid presumptuous/unsure/indirect words like "would/could/might" and rather replace them with "will/can."

3. Your sponsor should rather make a promissory commitment like: immediately your SP is approved or prior to the approval of your SP, that he will take responsibility of your flight and travel itineraries.

4. etc

The requited document for the sponsorship are:

a. Employment letter or CAC certification if self employed

b. Bank statement and other investment certificate(if applicable)

c. Payslips, reference letter, ID

d. Affidavit of sponsorship

e. etc

d. The sponsorship letter likewise your SOP should reflect your funding/scholarship and its sufficiency for your 1st semester tuition fees and living expenses. The funding should be given in the breakdown of how it was awarded, it would make more sense that just summing it up.

In terms of home ties, if you have no or don't have previous connection or work history with the company, don't do ask for an employment letter rather strengthen your home ties to your spouse and landed property, member of a social organization etc except you can improvise a tricky method to show a previous work history with the company.

It will also be advised to construct a LOE to address your refusal reasons to support your SOP.

Any family budget made to cover them in your absence should be a year except if you is capable to stretch it to 2yrs. Also, given that you won't be applying immediately as you awaiting for your gcms notes, try to keep the account you intend to apply with very active and the closing balance shouldn't stay the same - at least top it a little up. If you were to be reapplying immediately then it wouldn't have matter.

BTW don't change any previously stated information but you can rather add to it or reduce or include certain relevant documents.

Try to avoid including too many documents but given its a reapplication, you might also want to include any relevant documents that can buttress you application especially to make it convincing and satiating to the VO.

Good luck!

quote author=tajmal post=78040510]

The routine of IRCC sending a biometrics validity mail to applicants whose applications are almost ripe for a pluck became traditional from late 2018 - can't vividly recall the exact month but I think its in August.

I pray your luck shines in perfection this time, shinning both by day and night, and brighter than the sun and moon, and glitters more the stars.

Good luck!

DMerciful:
Why so late with your application?

sillysassysally:
Hi Nairaland fam,

I hope you all had a great weekend! May this new week feature approvals and medical requests in Jesus name... Amen

We now have a sample of 42 hopefuls but i want to encourage those that have not shared their timeline to please do. Let us contribute to this wonderful thread as we have benefited from it. This is the only way the thread can grow. For those that have submitted their timeline but haven't shared all the information we need, please help in sharing the full details (especially school resumption month and whether or not your application is new).

Also, if you guys have any ideas on how we can present this information better or what else we can add to it or remove from it, I am always open any adjustment that'll make this better.

Mrves111:
Happy Sunday all, I applied for post graduate diploma in George Brown College and I have not heard from them since. I sent them an email but they replied by telling me that they are still processing it. Justwise,vibre,frank and the others, please why do you think they are delaying. Thanks

TRV processing time update 09/04/2019
Application submitted: 2nd April
Biometrics: Not needed (3rd application)
Route: Online
We now have a sample of 34 hopefuls!

I would encourage those that have applied this year to share their timeline (with details such as; Application Route, whether you're a new or re-applicant, School Resumption Date, Application Date, Biometrics Request Date, Biometrics Done Date, Medical Request, Medicals Done, Medicals Passed, PPR or the Current Status of your application). If you don't have all this information, you can just share the ones that you have and update the rest as you receive it. This information would help us study or attempt to establish a pattern to how CIC operates. (Please note that the calculated estimates are just averages based on the little sample we have. Your processing time may be faster or slower than the average)

For those that have already submitted their timeline, kindly share if you are a new applicant or a re-applicant. Also, please share when you are expected to resume school. This would help us understand if there is a relationship between processing time and resumption date. (Cc Dedecoder, Godatwork23, Dolapok, Oni2019, docsaj, Klem28, Ancy 26, Trishaben, Omarzx, ify85, umulobi, Iykedpetes)

Finally, If there is anything you think i should add to the data or calculate from the data or if there is a better way you think I can present the data, I am always open to suggestions.
