Ok thanks.i guess applyboard is a website that does the filtering lemme try it.but again,I asked if one can get admission and process visa for September session within the time limit available now

Impossible is nothing.

Go ahead and try.

Eniolakate:
I'm just curious, guys.

If one has been refused a visa before, say visit visa to U.S about 7 years ago, is it necessary to mention that? If yes, hope it won't jeopardize ones application.

It depends on the reason for the refusal.
If it was misrep or a visa ban, that the only time one can be worried.
But if it’s just a refusal for ineligibility, as long as you declare it, it shouldn’t be such a biggie!

Anjiebaby:
Hi good evening.. my case is a little different
I started my study permit visa application in November 2021, and up till date IRCC hasn’t made a decision on my application. On my portal on the Final decision, it keeps showing; “Your application is in progress, we will send a message once the final decision has been made”
.
It has gone on for too long and I am just worried why it’s taking this long. Which has caused me to defer my admission for the 3rd time now. And my current admission is for May and still no decision has been made.

Attached is the details about my application status from my portal.

What extra requirements did they ask you to provide that you provided on January 25th 2023?

And have you requested for GCMS Notes before? As well as sent lots of webforms and emails to the Nairobi Visa office

Habeebboy:
Good day guys. My visa was denied attached is the letter bellow. I don't even know what wrong. I need advise because my school will resume by May and I have paid my first school fee and can I reapply back immediately?

Oh wow!

This could be termed misrep.
Thank God it didn’t lead to PF.

And NO you can’t apply right away.
You must get your notes to understand where the VO must have thought you were dishonest-

directly address that in a reapplication.

harkintem:
The long awaiting positive result is here. My visa application got approved guys

Congratulations.

How long did it take?

Honestly I don’t know why my messages to be added to the Red River College WhatsApp/Telegram group are being deleted on this Nairaland group. I am not an agent, I have never solicited for anything from anyone.
I only want to connect and network with people going to same school. I keep wondering if I have committed any crime or taboo in asking that allows for my messages to be deleted.
You can check my profile and since I have been on Nairaland since 2019, I have not more than 15 posts on Nairaland in general.
Just said to air my concern.
Please I am open for any WhatsApp/Telegram group, I have some personal questions I need clarity on .
Thanks

Maybe you can start asking those “personal questions” here.

My SP got refused yesterday

App Submitted: February 21st
Biometrics: February 27th (got updated same day)
Breakfast: March 7th (last night)

Generic Response;

I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as required by
paragraph R216(1)(b) of the IRPR (https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/sor-2002-227/
section-216.html). I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will
leave Canada, based on the following factors:

• Your assets and financial situation are insufficient to support the stated purpose of travel
for yourself (and any accompanying family member(s), if applicable).

I've been weak and tired since last night 🥺

Sorry about your refusal. That was such an early decision.
Just about 2weeks.

Welp, just go right ahead and get your notes. I’m sure it could be just a little oversight that can be addressed properly in a reapplication and towards a successful application.

All the best!

ahlorba:
Good evening guys,how much can i put in my account for POF for centennial college?

You may want to clarify wym by “put in my account”...

Bamz555:
I’ve done that oh. But can I download the form and fill then upload it?

There’s also that option.

But I feel it’s stressful and at the end of the day it may be large.
Use another PC, it’ll work

Bamz555:
This what it keep saying

Welp, it’s one of two things:

Either you’re trying to use your mobile phone or the Adobe on your pc is not updated.

Still try to update or try to install Adobe Acrobat Reader ON YOUR PC OR MAC.

MrErudite:
Some people didn't pay their tuition and still got their visas... ( Cape Breton University didn't state anything concerning payment of tuition before applying for visa)...
The Sponsor's CAC and account statement was uploaded

You mustn’t pay the tuition, but it helps.

Welp, I think there were some issues with the funds in your mum’s account.

You can Dm. Also, think of applying for your notes already.

MrErudite:
I got refusal today and I'm really confused because my sponsor is my mom and we share same surname, I uploaded a gift deeds and the account statement balance is 32m. I really don't understand what they mean by "You have not provided sufficient documentation to support your or your host's income and assets."

Please I need help because since I got this letter my headache increased, I thought I did everything right...

I'm begging you guys to help me

Sorry about your refusal.

The gift deed was for what?

samefiok:
Who has the link of a YouTuber or Article that explains everything about M-power students loans and using it as POF for Canada Study visa

First things first, you must understand that NOT all schools are supported by the Mpower loan financing.

That being said, you may want to run a quick google search if your school is one of the mpower partnered institutions.

Youthmaster1:
Anyone Applied on October and still waiting ??
Applied 31st of Oct but still waiting 😔

Send plenty webworms and emails.

OLAMINREWA:
Someone should help with this answer biko. The exact address of IOM and qlife is what she is actually asking for. Those that did their medicals in Abuja should kindly help with the address of the medical facilities.

Sometimes I wonder if some person’s google works at all.

Just a piece of advice, try to acquaint yourself with the resources in your hands. You’ll be moving to Canada, no one would be there to answer your every questions. Your phones should answer most.

I think it’s trust issues, but please sometimes trust your phone.

It’s not everything we should ask people, a quick google search can save you the ignorance. Let’s help ourselves.

vicmekiano:
Good day , pls was denied Canada study permit in December 2022 on the ground that my proof of fund is not enough and no home tie like asset to bring me back. My program was suppose to start Jan 2022. I have differ my admission to July. Pls I need advice and help as I want to reapply again so as not to get deny again . Thanks.

Have you ordered for your GCMS Notes?

Ndubisi12:
Here is my Gcms note and how can i tackle it, please guys help me



I have considered the following factors in my decision i note that a third party is the primary sponsor. Insufficient evidence of relationship/ connection to third party sponsor and history of financial support have been demonstrated. Limited obligation for third party to provide ongoing financial support. As such,I am not satisfied on balance that the applicant will have access to the third party funds in support of studies. Based on the evidence provide, the applicant personal assets and financial situation are insufficient to support their studies in the absence of third party funding weighing the factors in this application. I am not satisfied that the applicant will depart canada at the end of the period authorized for their stay. for this reasons above, i have refused this application

Your notes are straightforward.

I don’t think you share same surname with your sponsor and they’re not your parent.

So you can just go right ahead in a reapplication and provide sufficient documentation to show relationship between applicant and sponsor and most importantly show proof of prior financial support of sponsor to your education.

Also, it doesn’t look like the money in the account was very much, such that the sponsor can give you like half of it and still have something to take care of himself and the family.

- in light of this, the sponsor can do you a gift deed or pay some/or all of your tuition for first year.

Republic001:
Pls house....have submitted my father's CAC, tax receipt, and all his documents as a business...is it compulsory I add any of his land documents or asset to it

It’s not compulsory, but recommended!!!

Tolifefun:
for swift response, I advice you ask one or two questions at a time

I thought so too.

Because even if you were to have a consultation session, it’s one question at a time...

samefiok:
Okay Boss,the case is a single mother sending her son who has a Bsc in Tourism Studies to study a Graduate Certificate in Global Hospitality Mgt(1yr) at Conestoga College in Waterloo, Ontario

Okay, since it’s a Mother (a parent), it’s very likely to fly.

So just the maths: Tuition for your program for a year +Accommodation for a year (including Meals) +Roundtrip flight+Health insurance+Settling allowance (including Winter Clothes, Books and stationery).
You should be able to draw a good budget form to use for your POF

samefiok:
So if a sponsor has let's say N14mil in their account for the Kids Study in Canada and this funds was saved through business Profits over the years with invoice receipts to prove authenticity,will this boost chances?

There’s no one answer to an amount enough needed to show proof of funds.

How many kids?
Which school? , which city?

And the sponsor is a parent?

samefiok:
What if one doesn't Share same surname with a sponsor who is a relative for example not sharing same surname with your mom who is your Sponsor

Show proof of relationship between applicant and sponsor.

Best256:
I know the fees in Canadian dollars. It's equivalent in US dollars and naira, is the issue. Don't know if I'm to use official exchange rate or black market. Someone said black market so I'm a bit confused.

You are not transferring the money to them la.

You’re using a credit/debit card to pay.

So just have somewhere around USD $120 or #90,000 (Naira) in either of the cards you want to use.
This amount is around CAD$150.

So if you’re paying for the biometric too (that’ll be CAD $235) then have somewhere around USD $180 or around #135,000 Naira.

When you pay with a debit card, they’ll debit and you’ll know how much they charged.

Best256:
Good afternoon everyone.

How much is study permit fee equivalent in US dollars and naira?

Thanks

Google can help you.
And also depending if you’re doing official rate or black market rate.

The rate in CAD is $150 for study permit application fee plus $85 for biometrics( that’s for fresh applications).

So you can use google to do your conversion

blessedbest:
Please this proof of funds thing must the money be in the account for about four months before I apply for the visa,or it can be in the account like some weeks or days before I apply for the visa.please help,I am really confused..

Ideally a 4-months bank statement is required which should show a balanced, well-explained inflow of funds.
However if lump sums come into the account, you can do well to explain the source of the funds and importantly provide proofs/evidences of the source of funds.

Then you can also explore the options of GIC. This one does not require the funds to stay there for 4Months

Republic001:
Pls house my sponsor is using first bank am about to use his account for POF buh the bank told me dia soft copy doesn't have electronic sign and stamped they all they do is provide soft copy but it won't be signed and stamped unless I wud get the hardcopy and scan which wud be bulky and stressful..pls wahh do u advice I do can I use the soft copy like that or what

Tell them to do MBS- MyBankStatement.

It’s the most easiest and it’s highly recommended

tarmmey:
Hello guys please i need help on how to proof relationship with sponsor (uncle) we have different surnames as he is my maternal uncle. Proof of relationship with sponsor and the visa officer concerns about the money being available to me was the reason for the denial in my first application.

Telephone records, chats, family tree, family pictures, proof of prior financial support for your education, and more!!!

cadno:
Please I want to use a Micro Finance Certificate showing my N15m Investment,

I plan to use it as part of my Proof Of Fund - POF.

Will this be accepted by Canada Visa application Officers

I need your advice please

Why don’t you move the money to a commercial bank, then show proof that you’ve been saving the funds for a while.

Aystar78:
Hello everyon!
Please i applied for Canada study visa and i did my biometric and thumbprinting last year June 17th and ever since then I haven't get any feedback from the embassy, and my admission will expired by May next 2months

Please help me with your insight and idea🙏

Have you been communicating with your school? On a possible deferral.

As it is now, you should have the PM of your region reach out to them on your behalf

Prosperkossy:
This wait is too much 😢
Since November 25th I submitted my application
Since then nothing
I send webform almost every day
What should i do??

You can order for your notes from CBSA.

SLOVFO:
Wow!
My tuition fee for the duration of the 2 years study is $20,900+$20,000 that's $40,900. And the living expenses should be a minimum of $20,000 for two years. So if I get you correctly, I should fill the form thus:
Tuition = $40,900
Room and board = $20,000
Other=
Funds available for my stay = at least $60,900


If this is the case, I may defer my application as I don't have this sum ($60,900) in my bank account.

This is a very expensive School.
So out of the $60,900, you’ve paid about 10k. So you need to show pof of 50k+Miscellaneous of at least 6k

So yes if you can get pof of 60k, you should be good to go. That’ll be around 20M.

And you don’t really need to have all this amount of Money.

If you can get someone who has this money in their account, you can use the person as your sponsor, then try to show proof of relationship between you and the person.

Then attach that with the Money you have in your own account or your brother’s.
