Hello house, I got admission to Niagara College Canada to study International business Management. The school fees is $15,626 CAD. I want to ask if 10million naira sponsor's account is ok to process my visa.

Depends on the relationship you have with your sponsor. How many dependents does he/she have? Inflow and outflow? Is there deposits of lump sum? Does he/ she have good source of income?
Also, visa application goes way beyond sponsorship alone, i hope there isn't course mismatch.
If you have all these things figured out well, you are good to go.

pls someone reply....i need to know abeg

If i may ask, do you have the two years work visa right now.
Sorry to burst your bubble but if you are applying from Nigeria and you are Nigerian, I don't think we qualify for the two years visa (please confirm very well so as not to hear stories that touch) But incase you have the visa, yes, you can work then apply for permanent residence or even use the express entry route which will serve as a plus for you cos you have Canadian work experience.
All the best

Good day guys please am thinking of applying to these schools Uni of Calgary...Uni of Manitoba...Uni of Ottawa..McGill..please which is much better for engineering

They are all good and top schools. i think you should put other things like tuition fees and province into consideration to make a better decision.
All the best

DOs and DON'Ts continued

6. The VOs are more concerned about your eligibility to be in Canada than your eligibility to study a particular course. Letter of Explanation actually is the least important documents in your visa application, if everything else is in place. If you have any lapses or inadequacies in your application, a LOE or SOP if you like will do nothing to improve your case, in some instances it might make your application look dubious eg. someone that already has a Masters in Banking, going for a certificate course in photography and using a SOP/LOE to explain why he loves photography, in most cases WILL come out as fraudulent even if the applicant genuine intentions.

7. For instance if you say you are a married man and at the same time say you have no dependants on your application; because of your finances, that’s an obvious lie. VOs know that most men provide the income for their family so that as simple as it is can end up in a refusal,

8. Online applications are processed faster because obviously all the VO has to do is sit in front of a computer to review yours application.

10. Your second application will most certainly be reviewed by a different person and if you do your diligence you have a chance at getting your visa.

share thoughts, ideas and corrections.

Nice write-up. The only problem i have is that most of your statements are categorical, one will think you are a Visa Officer. There are somethings we aren't sure about cos we aren't Visa officers e.g Online is obviously faster, your other application will most certainly be reviewed by a different person
Also, i think if you are a married man without kids and your wife has a job, she shouldn't be referred to as a dependent.
Statement of Purpose or Letter of explanation is not only for course mismatch or course related issues alone, people use it to explain finances and loads of other stuff.
Generally, you did good. Well done and thank you.
