Lol, it's the "IRCC my love biko" for me. Don't worry, this rain of PPR is falling on us all and we will testify and rejoice with one another in a tiny bit. We go even plan Meet 'n' Greet in Canada cos there are some folks here I'll like to meet in person seeing the vibes in their posts. Keep faith alive, we're just at the finish line now.

Today officially makes it 30days the NSE request elapsed ,yet I submitted their request 3days after they requested the documents and the profile still reads eligibility review and reviewing additional documents is on
11th of January 2021 will make it 20working days on the dot. IRCC my love Biko kwa what's happening Biko what did I do wrong to deserve this silence.It's draining Biko I don't even know what they are saying now I wish I could see it then I would know it's just so unfair.
God I pray nah your hands we dey!!!

Abi! Me sef I tire oh.

It will end in praise for us all.

Longjonjoe:
Wait they actually wrote on the email that it looks fraudulent?

I read this post and I was just dazed mhen... Biko stay determined and give them what they want. Thank God they didn't refuse you based on that.

Also, maybe this is where a reference letter from the bank to back up the MBS will come in handy in this case as @awys mentioned in an earlier post. I just don't understand how MBS can appear fraudulent after being sent directly to them by the bank. All is well my brother and it shall be PPR once you resubmit by God's grace...

silvamania:

It will end in praise for us all..

silvamania:
Yeah . A lot of guys especially from India have pushed for a spring resumption but they said only fall 2021 oo

First of all. I need to say: WHAT GOD CAN NOT DO DOES NOT EXIST!!!

'Cos omo, the story long, from getting admission on October to today, omo.. been a lot of miracles.
I'd definitely give a break down once I sort things out.

Meanwhile, please anyone with the link on the best way to send passport to ABJ.
Thanks a lot in advance.

I am super happy for you especially for taking such a bold step, what I call (faith inspired action). The God that prospered Joseph in a foreign land will prosper you mega in Canada. I tap into your testimony cos your journey is very similar to mine.

Meanwhile, you must have a thing for the 1st day of the months, just joking.

It will end in praise for us all...

All the best!

TheShaman:
Hello All,
I have been a silent reader of this thread for months now; reading and learning from everyone here. It would be amiss if I don’t share my timeline with the house now that the journey has come to fruition:

First Application Timeline
Application: Sept 1, 2020
Refusal: Sept 15, 2020
Biometrics: Sept 16, 2020
Refusal Reason: Purpose of Visit and Personal Finances/Assets

After the refusal, I decided against ordering my GCMS notes because I felt that I could recognize where I made mistakes and where I could improve upon them. I read GCMS notes of profiles similar to mine and learned from there and proceeded to craft my next application within 15 days. I also chose to continue with my online studies as I had already started on Sept 8th, 2020.

Second Application Timeline
Application Date: Oct 1, 2020
NSE Request: Nov 18, 2020
NSE Requirements Submission: Dec 15, 2020
Medical Request (MER): Dec 15, 2020
Medicals: Dec 29, 2020, at IOM Ikeja
MER Passed: Jan 3, 2021
BVL and PPR: Jan 5, 2021 (Final Decision updated to Approved also)

For the NSE, I felt I would not adequately prepare for the IELTS to the best of my ability and chose to only submit the myBankcertificate instead. I planned to write the IELTS Exams in January 2021 and send the results via webform. I only submitted the myBank certificates just as @Popoolam did.

Application Documents:
1. All IMM Forms
2. Conditional LOA and subsequent confirmation mails by the school that I had met the requirements.
3. Letter of Explanation for my application detailing all I had done to address the refusal reasons from the previous application.
4. SOP of 7 Pages with different subheadings. My SOP had a well-detailed study plan showing how my BSc in Geology and work experience had prepared me for the course and Its potential benefits to me personally and Nigeria. I devoted other sections to why I chose the school, the city, and the province, and finally Canada. A section was devoted to Home ties which were majorly social and family ties and a section was devoted to explaining my study gap (I graduated in 2017).
5. All Academic Credentials (BSc Certificate and Transcript, WAEC Result, and a certification from the Technical University of Denmark relating to my proposed MSc course).
6. NYSC Discharge Certificate
7. Internship Contract and Full-Time Employment Contract for my current place of employment
8. Confirmation of Employment Letter from the office.
9. Birth Certificates of my mother and brother
10. Police Character Certificate
11. Resume/CV with a section devoted to my academic publications.
12. Letter of Support from my Research Supervisor to the Graduate Admissions Committee of the University recommending my admission (this also included a paragraph stating how my current job has prepared me for the course).
13. Family tree showing the relationship between my sponsor and I (he is the younger brother of my mother) along with family photos with both of us.
14. Evidence of financial support from my sponsor over the last 7 years (all bank credit alerts via email).
15. Pension Statement, Enrollment Letter and a funding letter I received mid-semester were submitted via web forms after I had submitted my application.

Financials
1. Letter of Financial Support from my Sponsor (my uncle) with 3 pages detailing why he was supporting my education.
2. Affidavit of Sponsorship
3. Data page of his passport
4. Tuition Payment Receipt from the school and Western Union ($3556 CAD)
5. Two Personal SOA with 4M and 6M as their balance, and one SOA of a company account (along with a bank reference/sole signatory letter) with a balance of 25M (all from my sponsor, I did not submit my own SOA or any payslip).
6. Company Documents (CAC Certificates and TCC).

NSE Documents:
1. Two myBank certificates of two company accounts
2. Bank Reference Letters for the two accounts.
3. Company Documents
4. Contract Award Letters from 2019 and 2020

Personal Profile: Male, 24 years this year, a graduate of Geology (4.0/5.00 GPA from the University of Benin).

I encourage everyone to do as much research as they can and read the previous threads as every information I used for my second application was found here. Please also pray and have faith. I sent only one of the NSE requirements while I saw others dash to write the IELTS exams with the faith that it would work out for my good. I thank all the gurus in the house for their wise words – I learned from every post on this thread and previous ones.

Praise be to God Almighty.
As the common saying here goes, delay is not denial. I wish you all the best.

Thanks JustMellow, I don relax. Lol

It will end in praise for us all...

Hello TeeMade,

You have nothing to worry about if you're submitting MBS.

Best of Luck

December 31st was the deadline given but I submitted the required documents on the 13th and eligibility review started on the 15th. Now awaiting PPR oh

It will end in praise for us all...

recxa:
What deadline did they give you and when did you submit your IELTS results?? I'm still waiting ohh

Ameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnn to I'm approved and accepted, na PPR be that oh!!!!
Apostle Prophet OtunbaTee, thanks for sharing this. God bless you plenty.

It will end in praise for us all...

OtunbaTee:
Get ready

If only my school can give this kind of assurance e go better cos I cannot defer to September biko, it's not even an option for me. That a whooping 1year delay in career progression, choi!!! We're not getting younger oh abeg.

@Silvamania are you sure we won't push for this kind of consideration At least for our peace of mind cos maybe if the school sees that a sizable number of people are in this pool and making same request, it may be considered. Trusting God for expedited response sha, it is well.

It will end in praise for us all...

OtunbaTee:
I already deferred to September 2021 with assurance from the school that if I get reply before then I can join anytime...if January started already I can join May...

No wahala @ awys, I just thought to clarify. Thanks a bunch.

It will end in praise for us all...

awys:
@Teemade the bank reference letter isn't a compulsory thingy @Lentomac just mentioned it to solidify the MBS as he initially mentioned with your MBS your account is still very credible which they can still confirm so the reference letter na just jara so don't get yourself worked up about not adding .What the bank reference letter just signifies is that the bank confirming that you are the sole signatory etc just the normal stories so just relax and we pray for good success on the outcome that shouldn't determine the outcome!!!.Even I had even uploaded mine with my application initially even before the NSE request came in as GTB Bank issues it I just decided to add it with my bank statement that was why I mentioned that I uploaded mine as well.

We dey here oh! My school resumed today and Orientation starts next week Monday. Had confidence for swift response as per NSE but we're expectant this week oh, the rain of PPR will fall on us by God's grace.

It will end in praise for us all...

yusufoshodi1:
Good evening guys, Please are there people that are supposed to resume this Jan that are still waitng a response from IRCC?

Gbamsolutely!!!

Thanks for this clarification @ JustMellow

JustMellow:
Hello Englois,

You can use it. However, ensure every details like the TRF number, Date, Details of the Testing Body and whatnots on your profile to be clearly visible.

The test result is always subject to verification whether or not is the hard or soft copy.

Best of Luck

Hello englois,

I believe you can as confirmed by one of the gurus earlier on this thread when someone asked thesame question. You only need to explain why you have to use the screenshot and include the TRF number for validation purposes. However, if you still have time to get the hard copy result, please do that by all means to at least reduce explanations to be done.

N.B: whether you submit hard/soft copy, TRF will still be used to validate the result.

All the best!

It will end in praise for us all...

englois:
Just saw my IELTS result but yet to get the hard copy via courier. Can I use the screenshot of the previewed online result for my NSE request.

Hmmmm guys I'm just seeing this reference letter thingy in addition to MBS oh. I thought the reason for MBS was to show credibility for account statement since its sent directly to IRCC and cannot be faulted or forged. Hence, I didn't know about getting reference letter to support it oh.

The only reference letter I got was from FBN and that's because they're not able to provide MBS. This was to show credibility for the account statement of which I got them to stamp and sign on every page.

Make una clarify biko as na PPR I dey wait for oh, 20 calendar days for NSE don pass.

Okay this gift deed is just like an attestation between you and the person giving the money (donor and donee) explaining that he or she gave you the money how the money was transferred,the date of the transaction and the sources of revenue of your sponsor there are different format online just Google sample of gift deed then you
read through and edit it to your situation then go to Ikeja high court to notarize it with their seal and stamp then you and your sponsor with counter sign it as well just like the way an Affidavit of Financial Support is done

Seen this info already, June! Congrats again.

It will end in praise for us all...

TeeMade:
Wow!!! Big congrats mhen. When was your application submitted please?

Submitted NSE requirements Dec. 13th, got donot reply mail on December 15th confirming docs received. Checked my GCKey and status had changed to Application/Profile updated which later changed to submitted.

On thesame 15th, eligibility review started including review of docs received and background check.

It will end in praise for us all...

OtunbaTee:
Pls for those that submitted the NSE documents..what date did IRCC start reviewing your additional documents?the day/date u submitted or there's no date there yet??

Wow!!! Big congrats mhen. When was your application submitted please?

SonOfaNobody:
Start checking your mail guys. I just got correspondence and Passport Request Letters

Big congrats to your cousin. Please did she get AIP before medical request in November? You response will help someone.

Meeny123:
I cannot thank you guys enough. Especially for the Abuja VFS heads up.

Timeline for my cousin, who got her passport today.

1)Applied on August 6
2)Medical request on November 23
3)Medical done at IOM Lagos on December 7.
4)Medical passed on December 12
5)Passport request December 16
6)Two-way courier was sent through DHL on December 18 (a Friday)
7)Application was received on Monday, December 21 and sent to IRCC on the same day
Decision envelope was dispatched from IRCC on Wednesday, December 23
9)Decision envelope was received by VFS Abuja on Thursday, December 24.
10)Contacted DHL to know if they are picking up packages from VFS Abuja, they said yes.
11)Shipment was put on hold because of the holidays. But it was shipped into Lagos on Saturday.
12)Today, Tuesday December 29, DHL delivered around 1pm.

Applications are never the same. What worked for A may not work for B. Do your best and leave the rest to God. These entry officers no dey check everything. I think they just apply discretion.

Never give up. IT WILL END IN PRIASE.

Hello @ Philadelphia,

Kindly visit page1 of this thread, there's link for the NSE details.

It is expected that you use the search option to get info on any enquiry which will help you see if thesame has been discussed in past threads. It's probably the reason you didn't get a quick response as this topic is already almost overflogged on this platform. The time of the night may also be anothor reason though.

All the best.

It will end in praise for us all...

Philadelphia:
Good evening everyone,
Please I need information on the NSE route. Anyone with links can please share to me so I can read more.

Also, I'd be grateful if there can be short answers to my questions below:

1. Is a Masters in Information Studies programme (which aligns with one's undergraduate degree) a good course for the NSE program?

2.) What is the required POF for the NSE program?

3.) Is TOEFL/ IELTS required for the NSE/ Visa application?

4.) What's the visa processing time for the NSE?

5.) What are the required documents for the NSE program?
Thanks for responding.

Hello @Chimzy4real,

Please confirm which payment you're referring to, registration fee or the deposit toward school fee?

I applied to UNB and completed my application/document upload. Then I was directed to the payment page to pay my registration fees, as application will not be processed until payment is made and received by the school.

After receiving my conditional acceptance letter which stated that I had to pay a non-refundable deposit to secure my slot, I then proceeded to make the payment at the bank before the stipulated deadline.

Hope this helps?

It will end in praise for us all...

Chimzy4real:
Anyone applied to new bruswick before. Is payment done before i am able to upload my documets?

Lol @ Blavkmaann, this one off me abeg, I don laugh tire.

Thank God sey dem approve both of una applications but tbh, I think your circumstances should determine the extent you go in your documentation for this application. As it has always been said on this platform, NO TWO APPLICATIONS ARE THESAME. Everybody gazz answer hin name and God no go shame us.

It will end in praise for us all...

Blavkmaann:

So sorry again about the refusal but just curious to know, did you receive the NSE request and did it include IELTS requirement? If yes, did you submit IELTS?

God is still in control, it is well.

It will end in praise for us all...

Legacyedition:
We can't say anything now till GCMS note is out.


Submitted Degree cert, transcript, waec cert, testimonial, nysc for records. The response is generic.


Let's see what's in GCMS note in 30 days.

So sorry about the refusal, I agree with waiting to see GCMS notes cos if you submitted all these documents and they are still referring to some "Mark Sheet" then its important to know exactly what they're talking about.

God is still in control, it is well.

Let's see what's in GCMS note in 30 days.

That's thesame VFS office now, if I don't know that of Abuja at least I know the Lagos office which is close to my house. Na thesame office or should I say address/building.

I had to ask if there's another embassy when the poster said "Canada embassy, not VFS oh" sounded to me like 2 separate offices but thanks for the response though.

It will end in praise for us all...

MadeMan01:
Canada High Commission at Abuja. Canada Deputy High Commission at Anifowoshe Street, Victoria Island

Hello OtunbaTee,

Does Canada have any embassy in Nigeria apart from the VFS office? Please confirm cos I haven't heard of any.

It will end in praise for us all...

OtunbaTee:
maybe u didnt read thread 17 til when one lady said one should visit the Lagos embassy with full details.. that b4 she left their office that day, all mails dropped in her email address...so try the embassy, not vfs oo

These two statements "remain closed for submission of visa application" and "work resumes FULLY on Jan. 4th 2021" suggests that they're not completely closed for business operations, just not receiving new visa applications.

Perhaps, they might still be accepting passport requests since it's not a fresh visa application. Just my thoughts oh based on their english, I don't know for certain.

It will end in praise for us all...

OtunbaTee:
na till 4th o...dont mind them...one gats wait till then

I'm not sure they're on holiday oh cos I dey pass their office almost everyday and dem still dey cause traffic as usual.

I guess what they mean is that they're not taking new requests within the said dates but they're probably processing other requests they've received before the 16th.

It will end in praise for us all...

awys:
So if there is passport request who will receive it dem like holiday ooo that's a long holiday oooo

Bro where have you been Any update?? Don't forget your fellow NB/Oct. applicant oh.

It will end in praise for us all...

silvamania:
My personal New Brunswick person

So happy for you but that’s a really fast process . I will be reaching out to you later on

All the best in Canada

Have a great holiday ahead

Congrats bro, It has ended in praise patapata. Bigger wins for you in Canada by God's grace. We will join you on the mission in a bit.
