Mcjimmy: 2.If you are yet to submit your documents just make sure you submit the document required by the Canadian embassy. I believe for you to get a visa you must have gotten your
Admission letter: which b4 you are being given you must have forwarded your certificate, transcript, Birthcertificate, WAECresult +Scratchcard, which the school applied to must have made verifications before accepting you.
3. For visa I will like to tell everyone that SOP which means STATEMENT OF PURPOSE carries almost the same percentage of attention with Your sponsors documents. Here is it. For you to win the Vo's mind or who ever is assessing the documents, you must specify who you are? according to the documents you have submitted, what you do and what you like doing? Why you have chosen Canada as a place to study, NOTE there must be a sign of sincerity and convincing statement in what you write in you SOP because after reading it , it,s what will decide the Vo's judgement even if you don't have strongSOA. Let them know that you just want to come and study to gain more international knowledge as a leverage in getting a better job in your country. Let them know you are not going to be a problem at all and you can survive in the country, even you can go as long as stating how productive you are and how their country can benefit from your productivity?
They also want to know if you have a work experience in the proposed course of study as well.

These things are what they want to see and not how rich you or your sponsors are. Your intelligence and skill is needed not your financial flamboyance. My brother and my sister got visa with a statements of account of just 2million naira and they both got their visa within a month and few days. We are not as rich as Dangote but they wrote an SOP that is superb. And they now told me that that is what helped them that Canada need serious minded people and skilled productive as well.

Can you pls help with a copy of the SOP to serve as guideline for me in typing mine.
I plan to submit my app on friday.
Thanks in anticipation

Joe980: No more bank draft. Cash does it. They will tell you how much to pay.

So I should just go there with cash

duntano: Yes you are required to pay the fees at d VFS..

Can one get the bank draft at UBA?

Siga: .... U guys still dey ontop this issue like June 12.... Una know wetin happen ooo...

Pls what's the best way to convince the VO that you will come back to Naija after the completion of one's study?

Hrllo Nairalanders...To all the gurus in the house, am planning to submit my application next week via paper route.i have a question and will appreciate lots of answers..thanks in anticipation...
My tuition is $13977,i have paid $2600 out of it,i have a brother that schools in canada and am going to be staying with him...on the CIC form,under the amount of tuition box,can I deduct the $2600 that I have paid and write $11377 and also under the amount available for my stay in canada box,can write $20000 as that is the amount of money in the SOA I want to use and I can't get a co-sponsor...

Will be looking forward to hearing back from you guys..

msbhukey: Hello House,
How u all doing? Please to those whov been sucessful,pls I need a draft of the letter you wrote about yourself,stating y unwant to study in Canada n the reason y u will come back.

Pleas help,will really appreciate

Please u can it to msbhukey@gmail.com

Thank you very much.

Pls incase you get a reply, can you pls forward to opebiyifemi@gmail.com...I need a draft also

pchax: Oh! Thanks! 5K made me scratch my head a little bit. Seems the men in black have graduated from the 20box egunje mindset. Been a while I have dealt with them though. Thanks alot!

I suggest you go with more than 5k...I collected mine for 5k5 and I went with a uniform personell so u Fit carry like 8k to be on the safer side

akosh005: Same procedure. But is not compulsory u include it in ur document. I stand to be corrected

akosh005: Same procedure. But is not compulsory u include it in ur document. I stand to be corrected

Thanks bro

akosh005: Bro, why sorry. The declaration of age was done in the court.......so take the stamp copy to national population council and get ur birth certificate. Is done within a day or two. Be happy

It's not for me...its for my siblings for family information

Sorry house...want to ask a quick question
Can I use a declaration of age in place of birth certificate?

PlayPays: If there is enough huge cash flow, it would help but still that 2.1 is low and now you can't start putting in funds into the acct. You haven't paid school fees, imagine if cic ask you to pay for 1st year and also accommodation, that 2.1 won't even be enough. Include more financial documents like landed, company or employment of your dad and if your mum or any family member has a good acct too you can include as co-sponsor, another thing is if you have anybody close to your school who can write you a letter that he/she would be accommodating you all thru ur study years, that alone would cut almost half of your expenses.

Yes I have a brother that schools in d same school and he has an accommodation..

akosh005: Bro, the money in ur soa do not show u hav cash to pay 4 ur expanse without working in Canada whc is 10000cad equivalent to 1.5m naira plus other expenses. You can boost the money to around 6m - 7m. All d best

Thanks for you response...what if I can't get that much? can I support with documents of landed properties and also I have arranged accommodation in Canada...

Urgent advice needed...

On my CIC form, they asked how much is the value of tuition which is $13977..though I have paid $2600 as acceptance fee,the account I want to use for SOA which belongs to my dad has 2.1M in it....I don't know if that will be enough to convince VO to grant visa...if not,how much will have to be in the account in order to be on the safer side?...
Thanks

@siga@slimdel
What's your take on using a barbing certificate to explain my study gap?

PlayPays: If it's me I won't include that tho unless it's from a well recognized barbing institute and only if barbing is what I want to go learn in Canada. If you've got like any computer certificate that would help.

Sadly I don't have that

PlayPays: I was working to gain work experience and also know which field or career would fit me before deciding on program to study.
That was my lie.

I am thinking of attaching a barbing certificate to my application to explain the gap in years

degreat11: u don't have to be afraid. just prepare a fantastic SOP explaining the study gap. and why the diploma will catapult u to the next level.

What does SOP mean?

PlayPays: Believe me your age is okay. I came in for a diploma even after a degree in Nigeria which I didn't disclose to cic (embassy). It was after I got here I decided to change to post graduate so you have no problem!

[center][/center]


Thanks...how did you explain the study gap

Slimdel: Hello
Your chances are high, just submit the right and detailed documents and a promising sponsor with breathing account and you are good to go
Best of lucks

Thanks alot...

GboyegaD: Hold on to your faith and please delete the thoughts of denial from your head/heart/mind.

Thanks bro...I appreciate the reply...
Any tips on the necessary things to do?
