Don't let it drop. Just be hopeful. You'll get it very soon.

morale is dropping.

Send a compassionate plea to them attaching your flight itinerary. Don't forget to include your tracking number and passport number in the letter. Copy the letter to the main mail space not as an attachment cos I heard theyy hardly open attachments with no reference in the main mail.

Pinkcandy97:
I am new here. I applied for my study permit (paper route ) on the 30th of July. Got my medical call on the 11th of August. Did my Medicals on the 18th and since then, nothing from CIC. How long do I have to wait because I already bought my ticket for the 8th of this month

Now you see what I was telling you

bolajibreeze:
Blood of god, after medicals and waiting days ahh! Fear dey my mind like mahd now

Yay! Great! It should take about a week -/+, I did paper route for my folks so I'm not speaking from experience

Torishe:
Hi TheBae

Just as I was about sending a mail to CIC this morning I got a mail from them requesting for my dad's passport. Thank you so much. The passport will be taken to the VFS office tomorrow but how long will it take to get it back?

Someone requested for it at IOM on the day of medicals and he was told that he couldn't get it and it was for CIC's use only. Maybe there's a process for requesting it sha since you say CIC says you can

berexio1:
Did any of you who did medical ask for a copy of ur medical results? I read from CIC that you can request for it. Did anyone actually do this? And were u given?

Lmao! Me too

CoCoLav:
I have a feeling we are leaving on the same day.

You too b. You'll probably leave before me.

CoCoLav:
Okay
Safe trip

Yes, attach a copy of the invitation card and flight itinerary

Torishe:
Hi TheBae

I actually applied on behalf of my father on July 28, 2015. The thing is my brother is getting married on September 13 in Canada and he wants to be there for event. So you're suggesting I send a compassionate plea to them? Please can you give me the email address I applied online.

Thank you so much

About 45 days

lucky032:
How many weeks did yours stay before you email them?

Lol it's complicated. In summary sha, I'm going with United

CoCoLav:
I'm going with Lufthansa
What about you?

@team12, I'm still in Nigeria. I just booked my ticket, you?
@cocobaby! Lol what airline are you going with?

CoCoLav:
@Team12 @Graviton2 I'm still in Naija o. @Team12 what airline are you going with?

You have obviously not been following this thread. I'll advise you to read back and see that medicals don't guarantee trv. I don't mean to discourage you or anything but facts are facts. Goodluck

bolajibreeze:
They are usually medicals done upfront. I'm just saying tho

@Torishe is the visiting visa out yet?
I sent them 3 emails daily for the past 3 days and the passport got dispatched today. If you're running out of time, i'll advise you to send them a COMPASSIONATE PLEA regarding the application and attach a ticket booking itinerary (you don't have to pay for the ticket). I know 3 people who have done this in the past week and got their visiting visas few days after

I believe it's valid for 1 year

Graviton2:
I rather "kee" myself than "commeat" suicide!!!!!

Part 9 will definitely bear my good news! Walahi!

#Quick question: For how long does an upfront medical stand viable by CIC? I did mine in July, how long can it still be used?

Read Part 8 to see victims of denial after medicals. You can be denied for reasons such as "Purpose of Visit", "Insufficient Funds", etc. Read the medical mail well and you will see that medicals is at your own risk and your application is still under review.
This mainly happens during rush hour.

bolajibreeze:
But not reasons regarding wat eva document you submitted prior, i.e. Proof of funds and all that. I think it depends on if u fail it or if u ve identity problems

Passing medicals does not guarantee TRV. Your application can still be refused for other reasons

bolajibreeze:
After doing medicals for undergrad student permit does it mean you're at least safe to some extent except you fail your medical? DO THEY REJECT AFTER CALLING FOR MEDICAL

Wow. After 3 months. You really tried, so sorry about your delay.

ada4all:
So....i just decided to track for the 3rd time today and my application has been dispatched finally. Since I didn't do upfront, am sure it's a denial.....thanks everyone for being there and thanks to God too. At least the tension has ended.

So sorry to hear about your. What do you think you did wrong? Share your timeline and necessary details so people can give their opinions

phrancisco:
Hello guys, like I posted last week I got a dispatch mail and I just picked up my documents today, attached is the reasons for the delay, and I will really appreciate all the assistance I can get to tackle this issues before I can reapply. Thanks a lot guys.
@thesoj @thebae @favour0011 @richcasey

^^^ I applied on behalf of my parents on July 14 via paper route and we haven't gotten any response so it's not about the route. CIC website states that it takes up to 50+ days to process visiting visa
@Torishe

Stop spamming the thread. Google the list of schools in Canada, look through the programs, choose 1 or 2 schools and look through the requirements of the program you want and apply if you qualify

aliACCA:
GOOD day house, i'm ALI from Ghana..just graduated from University where i studied political science. Currently, i intend to divert into finance. I want to know my chance of gaining admission in this field and any recommendation as to which university i should look at....

by the way, i am an ACCA Final student. thanks

2 or 3 pages at most is sufficient. If I were you, I'd do 2pgs to properly address all possible issues that may arise. Don't leave any stone unturned. These VOs can guess/assume the worst things so leave no chance for ambiguity

oppytexu:
Ok thanks so much, I will see to that!
Like how many pages can my sop be cos I was careful of not more than one page the last time

^^^ I'm in no way an expert but here is my humble advice.
@oppytexu Do away with that 3-year sham course.
You will need a very tight SOP explaing why you finished uni at that age, explain the school issues and why you haven't had much work experience. Your SOP needs to address your study gap which will in turn explain why you have that balance in your SOA (It's not so low but they obviously expected more). Use your family members here, asset and study leave to your advantage (even though they won't buy it cos you've worked there for just a year. Let your cousin/boss explain how indispensable you are to the company in a reference letter). Package well and ask the elders here for help doing that. Good luck

The point is that Travel History is the least of your worries.
IMO, Purpose of Visit means they do not beleive you're actually going to study or they just are not even comfortable with your course at all to begin with so you need to find out why and fix that first. Does your program of study reflect academic progession in the same field as your UG?
As for the others, how old are you? Are you married? Do you have a good job here and do you have a study leave letter (depending on how long you have worked there)? Depending plon your age, they may feel like you dont have enough assets and finances. Did you write a good SOP?
Give details that can enable people here help you out

oppytexu:
Please can you explain the everything else? I understand travel history, personal asest which I have a land worth of 1m and salary account worth 800k plus fixed deposit of 500k.
I still understand purpose of visit due to length of the visit.
Then family ties in Candan and home country is what I'm worried about coz My immediate elder bro traveled to canada in May and left in June for conference with all travelled doc included in my doc. Please help ooo

Bros, your major reasons for denial are everthing else but Travel History
Edit* so I'm glad you're looking at other programs. Sorry about your previous delay

oppytexu:
Hello house! I posted about my refusal the last time. Attached below are the VO reason for refusal and sincerely I can't really picture the real reason except for travel history... Also I attached the list of documents submitted! Just need guidelines applying to another school for winter on Monday! Please I need advise on how to tackle the reasons Thanks

Just seeing your mail. Will reply in a bit

kennykentipsy:
seen it?

That's why I gave the condition of if he is a partner. If he is, then he can present it as an asset. But I agree with @thesoj that he doesn't need to write his SOP on a company letterhead. It's a personal explanation from him and not the company. + of what essence is that when he's already going to present the CAC docs and SOA to tackle personal assets

berexio1:
My guy, u are not getting it..anything he has as partnership is his property whether in an company or outside a company....This is not to be debated..For the single fact he is a director, that coy belongs to him..jointly though

Do you own the company? Are you a partner in the company? If not, I think doing that would be very wrong. Best you can do is to show that the job will be waiting for you when you come back. Maybe @thesoj can shed more light on this

Thomby2k12:
Gurus in the house, I'm a co-director of a company and my aunt the managing director; can I use the company as part of my personal asset?

Also can I use the company's letterhead to write my SOP?

You still stand a chance. Dal focuses more on the last 2yrs

Odinwa:
my total cgpa is 3.37. Will that reduce my chances of getting admitted?

Sure. You can get in. Why do you think you can't? What's your total cgpa? Dalhousie is cool

Odinwa:
Hello buddies, I am a graduate of Biochemistry and I want to apply for masters in Food science in dalhousie university. My cgpa is 3.7 (for my last two years in the University).
Now my question is, Do I have any chance of getting an admission from this school or I shouldn't bother wasting my application fee?
Thanks

I didn't get it. Please resend

kennykentipsy:
