Hello people, please is there anybody in the house who resides in Brandon who can house me pending the time I will get accommodation?

Pinkcandy97:
has anyone ever submitted medical report for a previously denied application in a new application? Can it serve as an upfront medical?. If yes, what did you submit as proof that you had done medicals before? Urgent reply pls

In my case, I contacted the hospital and asked for proof of my medical. They sent it to me, and that was what I uploaded online when I was submitting my second application online. I did my medicals at IOM.

I'm sorry this is coming a bit late. I've been down for some days; just getting better.

DOCUMENTS
LOADS OF FASTING AND PRAYER;
IN MY FIRST APPLICATION THAT WAS REFUSED, I USED THE ADMISSION LETTER FROM FACULTY OF EDUCTION(I did not wait for the Acceptance Letter from the Admissions Office because I received it very late. I think that was why PURPOSE OF VISIT was stated as one of the reasons for my denial. But in the second application, I submitted the ACCEPTANCE LETTER from the Admissions Office, which is more detailed than the one from the faculty of Education.
IMM 1294E (APPLICATION FOR STUDY PERMIT)
IMM 5645 (FAMILY INFORMATION)

Another thing that I worked seriously on was my SOP. IN THE FIRST APPLICATION, I overlooked a lot of things in my SOP, but in the 2nd application, I made sure I left no stone unturned. For example, I have an unused 3 month Tanzania visa on my passport; the passport expired in November, 2014. In my SOP, I explained why I did not travel to Tanzania before the visa expired.

3 MONTH PAYSLIP
LANDED PROPERTY IN MY NAME WITH THE C OF O;

I did not use a co-sponsor in my 2nd application. Since my name appears in my aunt's company documents (an educational institution) as one of the directors, I only stated the company as part of my asset in my SOP. But in the first application, I used my my aunt as a co-sponsor.

Congratulations to all TRV munchers, good luck to all hopefuls

ayooluwatoni:


IOM is a big prob, at consultant practice, I was asked to pay 14k, then they transferred my previous medical result to my new IME number and I did e-medicals again. But didn't do any assessment again. Not sure IOM will do that for you, but still go there sha. If dey dont, then find your way to consultant practice.

GOOD luck

Can you please shed more light on the bolded.

montrealer:
You don't have to redo the test. Contact the hospital and ask them to upload it.
Go thru @Team12's post for more explanation re: medical request when medicals have already been completed.

Thanks for your response. But the application no and IME no on the new medical report form and those on the previous medical report for are different.

Hello my good people,
please I need your advice on my study permit application. I submitted my first application on 19th June, 2015 via the paper route; I got a medical request on the 13th of July 2015, and I completed the medical examination on the 21st July, 2015 ,but the application was refused on the 28th of July, 2015.

I decided to submit the 2nd application late August 2015 via the online route, but when I got to the point where I was to upload the proof that I had undergone a medical examination within the last 12 months, I uploaded a copy of the proof of medical which was sent to me on request from IOM, where I did the medical.

Today, I received another medical request from CIC in MyCIC account. Please, do I need to go to IOM and do another test? Advice urgently needed.

Thanks so much for shedding light on the question.

teesboy:

in the background section there are three questions

2a. the answer is no as i presume you have never stayed beyond your status validity if you have had a prior canada visa or never had one

2b. have you ever been refused a visa or permit, ordered to leave canada - the answer is yes as you have been refused a study permit before

2c. have you previously applied to enter or remain in Canada - The answer is no as you have never applied to enter Canada at any border post/port of entry nor applied from inside Canada to stay/remain in any category

Hello my people, please I'm trying complete FORM IMM 1294E, and I don't know what to choose under BACKGROUND INFORMATION where it says:

c. Have you previously applied to enter or remain in Canada?

Since, my last application was refused, should I choose Yes?
Thanks.

@thesoj, @TheBae and @berexio1, thank you all your responses and pieces of advice on my questions.

I will write the SOP on a regular paper, and use the company's SOA and CAC documents to tackle the personal assets issue.

Thanks a lot.

Thanks for your response. One of the reasons ticked for my refusal in my last application was personal assets, and since FORM CAC 2A (RETURN OF ALLOTMENT) indicates that I have 25% of the alloted shares, can I not present the statement of account of the company as part of my assets?
That's what I meant by using it AS PART of my assets.

thesoj:
I don't think it is a good idea to write your SOP on the company letterhead. You are applying for a TRV for yourself (not the company), and the SOP is your personal story. What benefit could possibly come out of writing it on company letterhead (even if u were CEO)? Imho, writing it on company letterhead may unnecessarily confuse the VO. I can't come up with one single justification for writing it on company letterhead.

When you say "can [you] use the company as [your] personal asset?" How would you do this? If your SOP is well written, then it would be obvious to the VO that the company ties you to Nigeria. Other than that I'm not understanding how you would use the company as a "personal asset".

The company registration documents show that I am a director.

TheBae:
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

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?

Ok sir, thanks a lot.

thesoj:
@Urchmandon, this was such a great post. Thank you.

@Thomby2k12, could you please edit your previous post? The thread would be less lengthy if you deleted most of the re-quoted @Urchmandon post . Also, this ChriGo post might help answer a portion of your question. I believe several people in other prior pages of this thread have fully answered your question though.

Congratulations @Urchmandon!
Since you submitted your application online, can you put me through on the category under which you uploaded each of the documents you submitted? Where did you upload your WAEC results and other academic documents, under what category did you upload documents like birth certificate, police report etc

Urchmandon:
N/B: It's a long post. Please, do not quote all.

The information provided herein include further details of my application and documents submitted.

Applied (online): 1st July
Biometrics: 6th July
Upfront medical.
PP request: 11th August
App. approved: 17th August


Documents submitted:
All CIC forms,
Admission letter+fees fact sheet showing tuition & general fees (from the school),
LOE (3pages) - introduced myself; stated - why canada, school, programme of choice, future career goals & what I intend 2 do when I come back 2 Nigeria (+family served as home-tie); introduced my sponsor & the reason he was gonna sponsor me; explained details of my fees & every other info worth mentioning.
Birth cert.,
Undergrad. cert.,
Transcript,
WAEC cert.,
NYSC cert.,
Police character cert.,
Proof of provisional accomodation & advance payment receipt,
Reference letters from - PPA during NYSC/current place of work (same place & didn't state how much I earn); place I did my industrial training (IT) & undergrad. project supervisor,
Marriage certs. of parents & sponsor (2 show r/shp),
IELTS report form.

Sponsor: Maternal Uncle
Letter of sponsorship (notarized) - stated amount deliverable,
SOA,
Fixed deposit certificate,
Pay slip (3months),
Reference letter from bank/employer.

Please, the following are based on personal opinion (mostly for those yet to submit their apps.) & shouldn't be misconstrued in any way.

1. All documents & information provided on the documents one intends to submit should be purposeful, clear & possibly self explanatory. That person X submitted document A doesn't mean person Y should/has to. If it's not a required document (from personal checklist) & it doesn't relay much info that will support your application and/or propel the VO to approve your application, do not include it.
It's better not to include some not-really-necessary document than to include one & give an incoherent explanation for it and/or an avenue to speculate (incorrectly).

2. LOE is optional & people have gotten TRV without one but if for any reason, whatsoever, an applicant feels the need to explain any information that will further simplify his/her application, please he/she should include one. For instance, address A might appear on an applicant's form & address B might appear on same applicant's acceptance letter. In as much as most people will consider such inconsistency insignificant, some others (maybe the VO included) might not. Such disparities may provide an avenue for doubt which could lead to a more thorough assessment, unravelling further discrepancies.
Explaining even the slightest differences or inconsistencies will only give more credence to an application.
Moreover, I think the VO will appreciate the effort(s) the individual made to simplify his/her task. Nobody smiles to work everyday hoping to be hit by an unanticipated complicated issue.

3. Be more open and honest than he/she (the VO) would expect you to be.

4. Finally, all documents should collectively present you (the applicant) as an attentive, distinguished, hard working and honest individual.
Make your application yours & not a "sub-application" of some other individual.

To all expectants, stay hopeful. To everyone who has contributed and/or still contributing to the progress of the thread, keep up the good work & remain blessed.

Cheers!

Hello house, please in the online application for study permit, under which category will I upload my First Degree certificate, WAEC, NYSC CERTIFICATE, POLICE CERTIFICATE, BIRTH CERTIFICATE?

Do I need to print the study permit application after validating it before uploading?

Thanks a lot @teesboy for your explanation.

teesboy:

Your medical is valid for 12months from the date you undertook it for all CIC medical related requests, and since your medical was last month it is still very much valid. I wonder why you think i would say or advise otherwise.

www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/medic/assess/valid.asp

Thanks for your response. But the E-medical form that was sent to me contains the IME of my application that was refused. Are you sure I can upload it?

teesboy:

Yep you can upload it.

Gurus in the house, your advice is urgently needed!

While I was creating my CIC account, I got to a point where I was asked if I had had a medical test performed by a CIC authorized physician within the last 12 months, and my answer was yes. When I was through creating the account, Medical/evidence of medical report was listed as one of the REQUIRED documents to be uploaded. Since the Medical report is valid for 12 months, I contacted IOM and explained the situation to them. They now sent me an E-medical form showing evidence of submission of my previous medical assessment result. It contained my IME for the previous application.

Can I upload this document?

It means they have received your documents at VFS Lekki. You can go and get your package now.

daudugodswill:
O boi am confused, I just received a message on my email from Canada Visa Application Centre,

Ok. Thanks.

But after you got the ready-for-pick up mail from vfs, what did your passport status change to when you tracked your application?

TheBae:
Yes, showed "processing all through" even after I got approval mail. It only just changed after I got a mail from Vfs telling me that my documents are ready for pickup
