Good afternoon Gurus!

I will appreciate if someone can respond to my questions.

I am currently living and working in the Netherlands for a 1.6 years. I had lived in ukraine before moving to the Netherlands because of the war in Ukraine. I got a temporary protection residency permit in the Netherlands because of the war in ukraine, therefore my resident permit in the Netherlands is coming to an end soon.

Because I have been working, I was able to save enough funds to pay for my post graduate degree of about 19kCAD and bought a GIC of 11kCAD to study in canada.

Few people i know in the Netherlands who also lived in Ukraine tried applying for a canada study visa from Netherlands but they got denied because of their "Temporary protection residency permit for people from Ukraine" which the VO considered not to be a proper residency. Two of these people went back home to Nigeria and reapplied and it was approved.

In my case, I am 28 years old. I have paid my full tuition fee(19kCAD) to my school in canada, and I bought a GIC of 11kCAD for POF, I have my payslip, I have a reference letter from my current job here in the Netherlands and I also have my last work contract from ukraine. The problem is my home tie to Nigeria, I am not sure I have a strong home tie to Nigeria as I will be returning home in few weeks from now to do my medicals and then apply for my visa. Below is what I have for home tie;

1) A Gift deed from my Dad, which is a house and its about 1.5 plot. The Land survey was done in 1998, but without a property value. In the gift deed we valued it at 25 million naira. It was sworn and signed in the high Court with the necessary stamp

2) My 2.5 plot of land which is my birth right. No land survey was done, just Irrevocable Power Of Attorney which was valued at 8 million naira and it was also sworn and signed in the High Court with stamp

3) Affidavit of Facts from my Father, which was sworn and stamped in the High court


Gurus in the house, please is this property documents sufficient to prove home tie to Nigeria or what else can you suggest ?
