Hello Everyone,

I entered the United States about two years ago on a student visa and I attended the school for a full academic year then  last spring I couldn't register for class as I was sick and travel to another state and miss the registration deadline so now I'm out of status, but I just got an admission from a Canadian school and planning to submit my study permit application to the Canadian embassy in Washington. My question now is do you think the Canadian embassy will try to confirm my immigration status here in USA?I already contacted them and they said I can send in my application here in US if I'm legally admitted into the United States.

I just need your own opinion on this as I'm not ready to return home prefer to move to Canada or Australia.

First of all, according to the international convention rules, you are not eligible to apply for a visa or for admission to any international institute from a country that you are not legally residing in. And to answer your question directly, YES, they will verify your residence status as this is the basic requirement for eligibility.
You might have to go to Nigeria to apply for it, that is, if they have not already known that you have once been in the States, and in that case, your Immigration status in the United States will then be required.

@ naijaspeak,@Vicjustice, u need evidence of hotel booking and return ticket this is part of the requirment and is most important to SA .note that u can do this free online just vist any hotel website and airline website to do your booking u can do this a day before u submmitt your document at visa collection center at opposite Eti osa local govt. ikoyi lagos.

What airline is it that allows you to make a free booking without payment in full, and yet provide the documentation to aid your visa application?

babsharon:
@ vicjustice, dey required travel itinerary in their requirement

Wrong, totally wrong: Travel Itinerary (or Flight Ticket if you like) is not a requirement for visa application, get it right

VicJustice In Romace Section??

Yeap, i think i just saw an elephant fly,

On serious note though, i dont say that word if

i dont mean it at all. period!!!

Old Boy, you think say na so so travel man dey travel? Haba, person body no be firewood na, man need to do a bit of romance.
But, i'm actually impressed at the speed with which people respond in this section; such speed that now makes me consider travel section as boring, Romance section should be the fastest moving of all

. . .St00pid girl! I dnt need a soothsayer 2 tel me your sex.your post is screaming pains,get a life victoria and take your justice 2 dat man who is responsible for up pain
vicjustice ma big blak a.s.s.

Oh yes, i can see you're very intelligent. But i don't think it is supposed to take this much of your overwhelming intelligence to know my gender.

Tosinville:
How would someone wake up one morning to compare one Nigerian man to every other ones.

Wrong, not "one Nigerian man", but majority of Nigerian men do use the phrase I LOVE YOU when negotiating an affair with a lady stranger.

annawhite:
F00lish thread and silly poster!
Calling our men silly?our men are simply weak and u don't have to hold it against them
They fall in love at first sight but no matter what they feel for you,they are smart pocketwise!
Stingy *Nigerian*men

But couldn't you have done better by being constructive rather than allowing your penurious circumstance to display in your post? I would expect you know better than digging men's pockets for gold coins.

TheCongo:
@OP, in my book there is still hope for you and your husband. Don't despair. I will post my own story here on Nairaland another time to prove my point. You should go with your gut feeling.
TheCongo,

TheCongo:
I will have to disagree with the bolded part. Immigration issues are never that cut and dry. The answer is neither YES nor NO.
Her case can always fall into a crack of a loophole.
Other factors can also come to her rescue such as human error, act of compassion, luck … I am a living witness and will post my story on here..

Enough of the promises, just save it and make the post or quit

TheCongo:
OP, you are talking about God’s grace in one of your posts. I assume you are born again. Then, believe BIG, THINK BIG and you will be amazed of what may transpire out of your case.

I still don't see how this matter is connected with religion

babsharon:
hw can someone book flight oooooo cos i abt packaging my document , abeg enlight on
i mean website can someone do dat free

What has flight got to do with document? Please, explain.

Such a development would not get to the level of marriage before finding out who my spouse was. But that doesn't really mean relationship desolved

[quote author=Mr, Cork link=topic=760520.msg9152491#msg9152491 date=1316090944]Vicjustice. OK. did he dump you? [/quote]There's no where in my post that suggests that i'm a man-lover, or, are you?
   By the way, does my post make you feel guilty?

The most silly thing to do in a relationship negotiation chat-up or conversation is saying "I LOVE YOU" to a lady that you barely know anything about. But unfortunately, this is the behaviour of many Nigerian men; they say I LOVE YOU to women who they feel attracted to as if saying I LOVE YOU is a way to express their admiration or desire.
   I expect most men that would respond to this to deny ever saying i love you to a girl that they barely know, but i trust that the ladies here will confirm that they have been told I LOVE YOU several times by different men who knew nothing about them: Yes, i acknowledge the fact that the majority of these men who abuse the phrase I LOVE YOU would rather not say it face to face with the girls, but the story is different once they manage to lay hold of the girls' email address or phone numbers; then, they can easily add the I LOVE YOU phrase at the end of a text message or email

HOW CAN I GET TRAVEL DOCUMENT TO SOUTH AFRICA, PLS HELP

If you can't get the travel document, then you can't go there

I stay in lagos.

I'm actually considering sending someone to meet you for assessment, but he seems to be a bit busy for now.
Do you live anywhere close to Ikeja?

tejutaiwoh:
Please, i need a translator to translate a document in Russian to English language for me.
Let me have the person contact, I need it desperately.
08065018890

Do you also need the document to be endorsed with official stamp of authenticity?

Adult age?? I never said I would imitate em lik d dude in the video, I don't have to live in paris to speak like the parisians. Thought you would want to try my voice out first before concluding I couldn't do It anyways. Have a good evening. Cheers!

Where do you live in, i mean in what state?

You can actually get away with the discrepancies in the Date Of Births, see my explanation at: https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria?topic=127964.msg9063180#msg9063180
But doing as i instructed in the link would put you into more troubles because it will become clear that the other documents (including your Marriage Certificate) were forged; so, how would you explain that?
   This is the situation. The data with which you had applied for the failed US visa and had given your biometric details has been integrated into their computer system for life, and this will forever be known as your identity and nothing will ever change that. It will not be wise to make any amendment to the record that they already have for you because, any attempt to correct it will get you banned from the states for life. The only thing you can do now is to maintain your recorded data otherwise, you may have to forget about the States for good.

bandiejay:
so confusing May God Almighty Help u if you think you can't make it up again with U.S keep your mind away from it Try canada or tell God to Bless you beyond your imagination if you have 5million USD in your account  buy  properties  in California or Chicago  i am sure Embassy will 4get about  the past That i know for sure God help you

How can they buy A property in the United States when they are not allowed to enter into it? Besides, not everyone is eligible to buy a property in a country that they don't have the legality to visit or reside in.
   How you dey, my G?

Pandorasbox:
@vicjustice: I understand what you mean.  I cn do a pretty good british,american n even a french english accent. Pls do get in touch.  I guess you'd want to try my voice out. Cheers!

It would be a thing of incapability to imitate a foreign accent at an adult age; if you weren't raised up in any of these countries, it would be near impossible to speak in their accent even if you live among them, those who imitate foreign accents at adult ages actually sound ridiculous in the ears of the the people whose accent they try to mimic.
Hear the guy in this video trying to mimic American ghetto accent: to the Nigerians, he is a waoh, but to the Americans, he sounds ridiculous

I have someone who may need a Nigerian female with any of these (natural) accents; British, Irish, American, Canadian, Australian or N. Zealand for video (not television) advert.

Just out of curiosity, , in case your Passport goes missing, which means you have to get a new passport,  what happens to your existing visas?

First of all, know that your visa details is in their system, so in the event that you lost a passport that bears a visa, you need to report it to the police or appropriate authority to get the report, and then you make an application for a replacement; the embassy will have to cancel the visa on the lost passport, and if they deem you still merit the visa, it may be reissued with a different visa number or code since the previous one had be cancelled. In most cases, you may need to make a fresh application, submitting the same documents as you submitted before, howbeit with updated details and information: and you will be required to pay the visa fee. But be certain that a visa re-issuance is not guarantee; you may be refused the visa especially when there is a change of circumstance or the Embassy observe something that they fail to observe previously.
   But if you lost your passport with the visa whilst abroad, you need to go to the police or the appropriate authority and get a report, and the immigration authority may issue an endorsement to this effect, you might be required to attend the Nigerian consular to get a new Passport or Emergency Travel Certificate in order to get endorsement from the Immigration that you're legally in the country: The Emergency Travel Certificate would then be the document to take you back to Nigeria in due time.

Dear noble_gas1
   That information from the Delta website is only just on papers, but it is not at all the procedure.
   It used to be Visa free for South African passport holders to travel to these countries including the Schengen territories and even the UK, but now, South Africans have exceeded their quota, and many are seeking asylum here and there; therefore, they are now required to obtain visas prior to arrival except for the very elite South Africans who are able to prove their social obligations and financial stance both to the Airline managements and to the Immigration Officers in the destination country.
   Know that 9 in 10 South Africans who travel to these mentioned countries on visa waiver are being stopped at the airport and deported at the expense of the Airline carriers and this development had long ago compelled airline companies to refuse to allow South African citizens to board their planes without visas.
   Now, an ordinary South African citizen is required to have a visa to travel to every EU state and other advanced countries as no Airline wants to allow them board without, and even if they manage to find their way into Europe airport, the chance that they will be stopped by immigration officers and deported is 90%
   So, you really do think that any South African citizen, irrespective of his/her calibre is entitled to the visa waiver travel to Europe because s/he holds an SA passport? That would be naive. Watch the UK Border Force and the Irish Immigration documentaries and verify that on airport arrival, (in the past,) most South African passport holders (without visa) are being kept in the (so called) Holding Room for up to 23 hours while the Immigration Officers do series of phone calls and verifications before eventually deporting them, where-as, a Nigerian visa holder is allowed into the country with relative ease. Now, no Airline Company wants to allow them on-board without a visa

[quote author=steve_101 link=topic=719168.msg8779097#msg8779097 date=1311514803]Go to ireland or newzeland,its visa free to sa passport.[/quote]Where did you get this wrong info from? A South African passport requires as well visa as does a Nigerian passport.

I, Mr Olawole Jide, a Nigerian nationale Alien Resident and a holder of the UK Residential Permit with Passport or ID Number:your Passport number and DOB; 01 December 1918, and a resident of house number 10, Downing Street, London, do hereby declare that i am formally inviting Mr Seun Benjamin, with DOB; 02 November 1911 and a resident of house number 20 Allen Avenue road ,Nigeria studying Banking and Finance in Babcock University, Ilishan Remo, Ogun state and a Nigerian citizen and a holder of its National Passport/Travel Document bearing the number: A10025147, for a family visit to the UK for a period of 6 weeks. I wish to also declare that the relationship between Mr Seun Benjamin and Me is based on Natural law as Mr Seun Benjamin is my biological brother with personal connectedness. I am trusting that the invitation will be honoured and therefore personally accepting responsibility on his maintenance and welfare and that i will take every necessary measure to ensure that the Terms and Conditions of the visa once issued, will be observed. Please, if you need further information, do not hesitate to reach me on the above contact information.
Thank you for your understanding
                                                                                                                                                 Yours Sincerely,

Pls dis is what my sister intend to use,  is it OK  nd wuld she align both left nd right to make sure the margins re on the same rate.

It is ok to use this format, but i really don't see the need for the inclusion of your education details.
   Believe me, too many unnecessary details may be dangerous, you don't want to put your sister in the position of trying to answer many complicated questions about you, do you? Now, take my advice, when it comes to writing or making statements which are likely going to call for a trial or an interview, it is wise to always remember this word, KISS: that is, Keep It Short & Simple because, the more details you give, the more rooms you create for questions and the more danger you put yourself into: a little error from her would cost you dearly
