Hi Isyma .

Pls how long did stanbic take to disburse payment ?
My form A has been approved but I’m yet to be debited �.

Isyma:
Advice needed,
*Tuition deposit paid. Form A has been approved to complete full tuition.
*Self sponsorship and backup from brother.
*Session resuming September 6th.
*Visa application not submitted yet, looking forward at next week, I'm delaying kind of to see if the remaining tuition will be disbursed by stanbic.
*I also plan on doing upfront medicals

?? What are my chances please?
?? Am I still on the right track

I submitted my application on the 26th of June.
Did biometrics on the 1st of June.
The biometrics hasn’t still updated to passed.
It’s still showing we need your fingerprints .

Even though under applicant information, it’s showing the biometrics enrollment date, biometrics number and expiry date.


Pls what should I do?
Do I send a message via webform or call vfs

Oga calm down .

The question sounds weird , yes but He probably din’t mean it that way.
Maybe he thinks you need to show minimum of a particular amount in your account for the loan to be approved.
Besides this is an anonymous thread, you can just state you won’t like to share that info.

Your response comes off stern.

Vahn:
what kind of question is this? You want to know how much i have in my account or what? Isnt this weird? Its a loan application, for God sake

Please drop your timeline and documents submitted.
Thank you.

I’m sure someone will definitely answer your question once you do .

Just go to any high court . I did mine at ikeja .
The guys inside would assist you with the format , all you need to do is give details of the sponsor, your school , your name etc .

Please proofread the document when they are done typing before they stamp it to avoid error.

It’s 1k -2k thereabout.

Does it have to be a personal account?
Can The money be in a business account ? I mean for the form A

Jenny255:


Your address: XXXXX
Date: XXXXX
(The should be on the right hand side)

The managing director,
Name of bank: XXXXX
Address of bank: XXXXX
(The above should remain where it is on the left)

Dear Sir/Ma,
AUTHORITY TO TRANSFER
Kindly take this as an authority to transfer from my account : XXXXX (Name on the account) with account number: XXXXX (your bank account number), the sum of XXXX (amount that you want to pay for the form A) to XXXX (details of the recipient of the money, this can either be the school or whoever the receiving party is)

Kind regards,
XXXXX ( Your signature)
XXXXX (Full name of the account)


I hope this helps.

Pls what part on the Form A do we input the reference number?

There’s no column for that and flywire indicated it’s very important.

ShowYoung:


Most of the time, invoices do have expiry date but it doesn't mean it can't be extended or traced. You just have to ensure you don't generate one until you are ready to submit Form A so as to save more time.

You don't want to worry about the expiry but ensure you follow the instructions therein and follow up with mails and customer service. If the reference is there, it can be traced. It's only when funds cannot be traced would they consider sending it back irrespective of the time span given.

I have interacted with Flywire, for example, numerous times, they do give 14 days extension after the expiration and even, after the extension, the fund will still not be returned if you follow up and hold them tight. It all depends on communication.

This does not mean there's no expiration. Don't toy with your money and time due to levity.

Did you submit your own statement?
Does your sponsor have dependents ?

Morenikeji25:
Good evening guys, please I just joined Nairaland and it is my first time here I got my refusal letter today based on the reason below based on financials and asset I have ordered my notes and I will re-apply I think the problem is based on finances guys I will need your help so much if anyone can please I beg you reach out to me.

My tuition fee for a year is 20k CAd and my sponsor had 40k CAD I also didn't use a 3rd party sponsor.
Please what did I do wrong??

Is employment letter, study leave letter and a fashion business enough to show ties in Nigeria when one’s family are in the US?

bullstriker:
A bank statement of 3.5M is insufficient for proof of fund, even if you have paid your tuition fees. In addition, fixed assets cannot be should as proof of fund.

Having siblings in Canada is a drawback, but I have had clients who have family members and yet got their study permits. Let her focus on writing a convincing SOP outlining her ties in Nigeria. In addition to her family, she can add assets and letters from her employer stating she is going on study leave and any association she belongs to.

I don Dey fear o sigh.
Wetin concern them if person family no dey Nigeria again.

geotherm:
My Sister got a refusal letter: I have applied for GCMS. Two reasons:
1. Financial status and Asset: she paid half of the tuition $10k and showed statement of account N3.5m. I guess these are not enough. For assets she showed landed asset with no valuation.
2. Family ties in Canada stronger than that of Nigeria: Her husband and son are not coming with her, so what other family ties. Yes she has 3 brothers and a sister in Canada.
Application Date 17th February, upfront medical, new portal, Nairobi visa office, refusal letter today.
I need suggestions while I wait for her GCMS.

Did you make a tuition deposit?

Did you submit your own bank statement.
I think you’re supposed to do submit your own statement too.

I think the issue is with the third party sponsor.
Just order your gcms notes to be 100% sure what the problem is.

Wesay01:
24m was in my cousin bank statement
I did drop my Mummy bank with 600k
And letter of support from my uncle who is a US citizen
I did submit my Consin CAC and taxs id
My cousin is not married
I did not submit document showing pass sponsorship because there wasn't

Hello everyone,


Quick one pls.

Do I need a swift code directly from the school to apply for form A (sending to Flywire, then they send to school on my behalf )

On the Form A application, the part that has the Bank account details and then correspondence bank name, is it flywire i’m supposed to fill there or my school details ?

Pls note that my school dint give any account details except a link to pay through flywire .

Give more information now

How much was in your bank statement
How much was is your cousins statement?
Did you submit work documents etc .

If you want a response addressing what you might have done wrong, you need to explain details in your application.

And yes, your cousin is a third party sponsor.

However, give details.
Is this cousin married? Does he/she have dependents? Did you submit documents showing past sponsorship or close relationship with this cousin.

People here might be able to help out with pointing out what you did wrong so that you can reapply ASAP

Wesay01:
Submitted April did my biometric may 11
My cousin is 3rd party right

Naso them jobless reach?lol

Anyways , I doubt they have time to be visiting account “from time to time” o .
From what I’ve read here, when your eligibility starts, they’ll just confirm the duration you submitted and if the statement is genuine.

I don’t know if they confirm after the date you presented . Except they haven’t attended to your application in months , then they can ask you to submit an updated account statement.

RayOFLife:
Thanks to everyone here for your inputs. I would loved to know if the money in your statement of account must still be there after submitting your POF? I mean can you withdraw it out for other business usage or does visa officer visit the account from time to time during the awaiting period?.

The story won’t be convincing to the VO tbh.
It’s cut and join somehow and the VO would assume the money won’t be available for your studies in Canada and it’s only for demonstrative purpose. I’ll advise you don’t involve a third party at all.
Sponsorship from two family is enough, don’t add family friend again.
It doesn’t sound convincing.

That’s my opinion tho.

Let gurus in the house contribute.

I wish you all the best.

tosynn007:
Hello guys, I need you guys intake on this. I was recently refused for my study visa application based on my personal asset and financial status.

My half sister paid my first semester tuition fee which reflected on her bank statement while my dad opted to support me for my room and boarding but didn't make commitment.

This time around, I intend to show further proof that my half-sister is related to me by blood also, my dad will also be making a commitment of 1m to my personal account and more funds will be sent as my room and boarding upon my arrival in canada. The only issue now is that my dad close friend is willing to make a pledge of $10,000 dollars has a gift upon the approval of my study application and willing to provide a bank statement and sponsorship letter but very important to note that he isn't willing to make that commitment yet except until the visa has been approved

My question is hope it won't be a red flag indicating that my family friend pledged a certain sum of money upon the approval as I originally intend using my sister and my dad as my sponsor whom also have very good inflow and outflow on their bank statements and valuable landed properties

Or should I just remove the third party sponsorship pledge away from the POF

Pls how much is visa and biometrics fee ?
And is barter by flutterwave the only way to make payment at the moment?

You can apply with your student copy and when you’re accepted conditionally , you’ll fulfill the condition by sending the official documents.
(Depends on the school) .
Check the requirements for the program and you can go as far as sending a mail to your program coordinator for confirmation so you won’t waste your application fee.

Good luck.

Senorita123:
Please house, I have a question.Due to the current NASU strike, I would like to know if unofficial transcripts can be allowed for admission (students copy) or does the school have to be the one sending it directly. Thanks

Good morning.
Pls is it just me ?


I’ve entered my bvn and it just keeps showing this loading sign and I’m unable to register.

I want to request for Form A for tuition payment.
Is their server down or what?

My mum supported me with some money for rent in Canada. Do I need to do gift deed or can I just get a letter of support from her stating that she supported me with 2m for rent .
She’s not my sponsor btw .

She’s not in the country do gift deed with be difficult to do

I don’t know much though but from what I’ve seen here ; the person ought to show commitment by transferring your living expenses to your account, or tuition deposit or even both to show commitment. This isn’t compulsory but it’s just to clear the VO’s doubt that money won’t be available for your study and it’s just for demonstrative purpose.

That’s my opinion though.
To address your reapplication, if he can transfer your full tuition to you or pay to school directly and send you LE for first year. .

I think that shows enough commitment.

Wait for gurus in the house to add �.

ItzRay:

Edakun ,

Can someone send the link to the details of How to use form A to pay tuition.
I’ve checked the first page of the thread , can’t find it.

I need details on how to use form A cos my school send a fly wire link for payment not a swift code.

Hi .

That’s what I saw online .

Can someone else confirm the rate pls.

575 for What ? lol
Even USD can’t be 575 for cbn rate because black market rate as at today is 595 (I changed usd today at that rate, it’s might be higher)
Maybe you’re mixing it up.

Lezy:
How come your CBN rate is 323?

I went to pay my tuition fees with Form A, which I had already filled and I went to the GT Bank, they told me the rate 575?

Thank you ketima .


Please after requesting for form A at the bank, do I need a swift code to make the transaction?

Ketima:


Hello Uzoamaka,

The bolded is a wise idea, don't waste your dollar by paying tuition using your dollar when you can make use of CBN form A at a cheaper rate. You have already done the maths to know the difference. So go with your plan.

Hello guys .

Please quick one.
I want to pay tuition and I have 5k USD(in US) , should I send it and change it to naira via black market rate at 595 2,975,000 and request for form A to pay to the school. At CBN rate 323 , I’ll be able to pay up to $8,000CAD in tuition with this money.

Or I should just ask the sender to pay directly to the school from US which would be 6,000 CAD .


The school dint give a deadline but I want to submit my application by next week.

I can upload it via webform .

But with the whole form A wahala , what if it doesn’t work ?
I don’t want to be stuck halfway and have to use fly wire at the end of the day thereby paying ridiculous rate .

Pls what do you guys advice .

Hi guys .

Please how do I go about using GCkey to apply?

Was going to use new portal to apply but this one most PPR two days ago was from GCkey ���.

Please after creating an account, how to I get to the part where I fill forms and attach documents.
I can’t see it on my dashboard

Then I suggest you defer since it’s in person class and not online.
Most people that don’t defer and wait for the decision is because they can take online classes while waiting .

Hafeez6948:


Thank you for your reply. Next deferral unknown but will ask .
No job at the moment and no online classes its totally in- person

Thank you so much
I’m grateful for your response .

JustMellow:


Hello Uzoamaka123,

Sorry for the late response. Your mom should give you a Letter of Support after transferring the funds to you. She should act as the sender and owner of the funds. Ensure to explain the term deposit in both the LOS and your study plan.


Best of Luck
