Even my supervisor ooo

Frankrobbn1:
Having gone through your profile and the list of supporting documents. First, I can deduce that there wasn't adequate proof of relationship between your distant uncle and you (Principal Applicant). What were his reasons for sponsoring your studies in Canada and what does he stands to gain as a result of this Sponsorship at the completion of your studies. I believe you will be wondering why you're refused based on Insufficient funds to cover for your tuition, living expenses and transportation to Canada when you included a fat bank statement of (800,000)k Euros. This is because you didn't establish strong proof of relationship with your distant sponsor in Dublin and for this reason the visa officer is in doubt/ not convinced enough that you will have full access to the funds in your Sponsor's company/personal account.

Secondly, what is the lucrativeness and the benefits of your proposed study in M.Ed(educational leadership study) upon your return to nigeria? Is there any demand for graduates from this program in Nigeria. How did you link your past studies and intended program in your SOP. All of these must be backed up with justifiable reasons to why you want to incur such a huge cost for a program that can be attained in Nigeria at a cheaper rate which will be benefical/reduce cost for your third party sponsor without having to travel abroad.


Thirdly, what are your ties to Nigeria that can compel your return back home after studies. Do your parents own landed properties, fixed deposits and investments in banks that you will be returning back to look after upon your studies? Do you've any job here in Nigeria that you will be coming back to resume work? Do you've any property in your name. Since you indicated that you're married, why didn't you include a marriage certificate to further buttress the fact that you've a home and great responsibility falls on you being the father/husband to your beloved wife and children. Furthermore, explain convincingly in your SOP how your family will be faring while you're away for studies. Does your wife own a business or in gainful employment provide an evidence for this. These are your ties to Nigeria and should considerably substantiate that you will leave Canada immediately after your studies. In your next application, I would suggest you include your personal account owning to the fact that you're married


Furthermore, travel history as I always make it known to the honorable members of this platform is not a factual reason for a visa refusal. In an effort not to derial the thread, refer to this link on what you can possibly say as your reason for not having travelled outside of your home country until now : https://www.nairaland.com/5233221/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/238#81441216


To crown it all, I'll strongly advise that you construct a good family tree that will show how your distant uncle is related to you either from your mother's side or father's side down to your generation. Uncle should show his eagerness in sponsoring your studies in Canada by paying your tuition and transferring funds into your personal account. This will prove to the visa officer at the canadian embassy that he is a genuine sponsor and will further demonstrate that you've access to the funds presented in your application. Evidence of your Sponsor's current immigration status in Dublin - International Passport bio data pages (resident permit card) and source of wealth should be included along with your next Application.

I hope this helps.

It shall end in praises.

Prospective Applicants who were refused with this point wondered why they should have a family in Canada before being given the visa. Note that the full statement is “family ties in Canada OR family in your home country”. So its either you failed to prove each criterion or both criteria, that is, whether you have family ties in Canada or whether you have family ties to your home country. Therefore, if you have any family member living in Canada, that is also a tie in Canada and might outweigh/weaken that of Nigeria, most especially when you don't have strong holdings here in Nigeria (Properties and Assets) that will motivate your departure.

Sorry about the outcome of your application. Can you share a comprehensive list of documents you submitted along with your application as well as your sponsor, previous studies, intended program and proposed designated Institution in Canada.

It shall end in praises
