I just love this Boss. You are one of a kind.
May God bless your kind heart. I look forward to meeting you...

Bosses,

Congratulations to everyone that got their approvals recently.

This is to show that delay is not denial.

For those who are in Canada already, I am sure most of our classes have started and the movie script is turning out as we "hoped" it would. The busy schedule will soon take most of your time, but I would admonish us all to at least take out time to appear here once in a while to provide answers to pertinent issues that incoming applicants might have. It is not a requirement but a plea. Any little help will be appreciated. And please stay focused; remember how hard it was to get the TRV (whether first application or more than one, it wasn't easy), so please remember that. If you must have fun, please do but remember to work hard too. In fact, PLAY HARD-WORK HARDER.

Also to the newbies or those who have one questions or the other to ask those in Canada already ( about application for admission, TRV, live in Canada etc), please, go straight to the point and ask. No matter how "stupid", you think the question is, please ask but be straight and concise about it.

To everyone still waiting for their TRV approvals, please hang in there, our thoughts and prayers are with you all. It will surely end in praises for us all.

To the bosses that have been providing answers to questions, may God bless you guys richly. You are my bosses of the century.

To those flying in this month and next month, congratulations once more (and carry my garri when coming sha).


I appreciate.

Peace

Mazi.

How sure are you that isnt positive?

Maybe the first thing to ask him was did he do an upfront medicals?


Queenkanbia19:
No it doesn't,get your passport from the vfs and you will find a letter attached stating what went wrong...work on it and then re-apply

Thanks a lot humblemoi.

Took the hints.

Will do as I discussed with you through the mail I sent.

Thank you.

humblemoi:
Hi @yomcy2016,

Current application processing time for applicants in Nigeria is 14 weeks. i can only suggest you raise a CSE asking for an update on your application as school is about to resume. It will further be helpful, if you are in a tight corner regarding fees pending a deadline, or in between making a serious decision. If that isn't the case here, i'd suggest be patient, once deadline for resumption is past, you may wish to defer, request a new letter of admission and raise a CSE and hope, that they once again review your application during this time.

Moreso, please request a GCMS note, to know the true state of your application.

Cheers
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by yomcy2016(f): 10:50am On Aug 31, 2017
Humblemoi, I have a question.

In a situation whereby one's application is around 14weeks now and no update yet aside the biometrics, considering that school is technically resuming tomorrow, do you think it was appropriate for me to send a mail to the address you dropped here for us without thinking i am desperate?

Cos right now, I just want to know what is up with my application.


humblemoi:
Thank you for sharing this

Please who did you write to? I sent you a PM can you please acknowledge?

Thanks

abestine:
I think it depends on the content of your mail... I wrote to him and he responded even thought the response looks like auto response, but my application was updated for the first time since may and I got a medical mail... It may not be because of the mail though, but it happened after the mail, so I will be right if I say writing him doesn't connote desperation... My thought anyway

Alright, I took your hint. Will do as you have hinted.

Thanks a lot bro.

maziude:
Ehn, ladies too are bosses na...

You should send a case specific enquiry to accra, that should be your "designated" visa office.

Hi Maziude,

Thanks for your timely response. Actually I applied online from the start.So I dont think I choose a visa office or maybe I cant remember. But I had my bio-metric done in lagos tho. Besides, I am a lady. lol

maziude:
Boss,

When you initially applied, which visa office did you choose?
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by yomcy2016(f): 2:55pm On Aug 15, 2017
Please for the online applicant, does anyone have any idea as to how one can find out where his or her application is been processed? whether it is outside Canada or not? My question is premise on situation whereby one need to send a Case Specific Inquiry.
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by yomcy2016(f): 11:19pm On Aug 07, 2017
Nairalanders, please a quick one. Does anyone knows the procedure of how one can retrieve a visa application from going tru further review or something.

I mean I don't want it reviewed anymore, for them to stop.

Please what can one do in such a situation?

Thank you.

Good morning house, this is me giving my appreciation first and foremost to the Lord God Almighty for making my interview a success.

Secondly, a big shout out to Walspring for your kind response to my question as well as Joeluv.

I was scheduled for 6:30 interview...though i didn't leave till around 7:43.

On getting to the venue...I had my docs already with me so the tout won't use me for breakfast..all the staple your documents and all I didn't even answer any of them...park here park there...I used my discretion to on that as well...considering all the stories have heard on the platform so I was readily prepared.

All those your documents must be coloured...it isn't tru...none was for me aside my admission letter sent with my I20.

Fast forward to my interview...

The VO all smiling a young pretty lady prolly in her late 20's i think it was window 6 if I ain't mistaken.

The VO didn't greet me and so I didn't bother as well. (Over sabi isn't necessary)

V.O: Can I have your passport
I passed it

V.O: Your I20 as well
I passed it

V.O: How old are you?
ME: I am......years old

V.O: Where are you going to in the U.S (didn't hear her initially so I said "pardon" before i will say what i wasn't asked)
ME: I'm going to for Masters Degree Program at the American University Washington DC

V.O: Who is paying for your studies
ME: My dad is paying. However I got a merit based scholarship award from my school.

V.O: Yea I can see that, and it is really a huge amount. And you also have funds?
ME: Yes I do, cos I am presently working

V.O: What do you do at your place of work
ME: I told her...

V.O: Wow all that? (With a smile on her face)
ME: I smiled as well and told her the 3 basic things and broke it down ( that was y it seems kinda much to her, i think)

At that point she already picked the white paper and placed it "our" front.

V.O: She now asked that (considering my roles) so why am i going for international law and legal studies that it seems i am into domestic law alone.
ME: No i actually also have dealings with foreign clients and I was privileged to be among the team in my office who gave legal opinion on a case involving Econet Telecommunication...*VO Cuts in*

VO: So you are coming back to take up your job (at that point she already pushed the white paper to my front)

ME: I told her yes and that as a matter of fact I was just giving 18months study leave and expected back in the office 8th January 2019

VO: (She passed the white paper to me) and told me to have a nice time in the U.S
ME: (with a big grin of smile on my face) I said THANKS!!!

That was it...she didn't even type anything on her screen...she looked the screen like prolly just twice there about...looked at me...and you know...that's all

All I can say is that it was just God coshonestly I was scared...from the start of it all. The application and all. But in it all I give glory to God and thanks a lot Walspring and Joeluv also the transcript posted by others also was of immense help.

This is my little way of giving back to the house.

P.S I submitted my DS 160 even beforepaying for interview ...you know a lot wasn't right about my app...DS 160 has some missingquestions.

Through it all I give God the glory.

To.All still expectant, I.pray the God who showed me mercy and favoured me will also show you mercy and favour you and not give you a strict V.O like the one in window 7.

So Airich01, what is the way forward for me now as I know nada about programming o? lol. cos i have already submitted already and besides joeluv got his approval as well. So I am trusting God for the best. I intend paying for my visa today today.

Airich01:
All Ds-160 forms have question on education ,but when the network is bad the form for that because they wrote the code for that ad some other pages in a special way... If you have an idea about programming you'd understand.
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by yomcy2016(f): 9:11pm On Jul 10, 2017
Thanks joeluv for responding to my question. However now that I am at this junction and i have submitted already...and intend to pay tomorrow to schedule an appointment,do you think I am still on track?


joeluv:
My own DS-160 had no education or language question. Though it has US travel history question. I don't think it has anything to do with payment of visa fee. But you need to at least pay your visa fee before submitting your DS 160. It's just logical you do that.
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by yomcy2016(f): 4:55pm On Jul 10, 2017
please gurus in the house, I kinda need your help and clarification badly.

My issue is, I once complained about the fact that my DS-160 has some missing question such as departure date from US, TRAVEL HISTORY, UNIVERSITY EDUCATION, LANGUAGES.... I was able to find out that this were missing in my own cos a friend of mine who we are both going to same school has those question in his own.

Walspring adviced i use another browser or prolly fill another DS 160 form since I havent submitted. So after much attempt i filled another DS-160 form but still same issue and eventually i submitted like that. It was afterwards I knew i was suppose to pay my visa fees before filling the DS 160 form.

Please my question is can it be because I didnt pay my visa fees initially before filling the DS-160 form was the reason for those missing questions? Now that I have submitted, I know i cannot do anythig about it again. However can the gurus in the house please advise me on the next step I can take to remedy the mistake. I am thinking of making payment tomorrow. Please can I be advised accordingly?

Thanks in anticipation of your response
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by yomcy2016(f): 7:15pm On Jul 07, 2017
Hi walspring,

Hope it won't be an issue that I already filled it and that i uploaded my passport on it if I intend to start a new one. What will happen to the previously filled one?

Walspring:
Nothing to worry about just refresh the page it will surely load or use another browser and it will load

If the problem persist, kindly fill a new ds160 cos no time to waste
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by yomcy2016(f): 5:27pm On Jul 07, 2017
Justwise, please i have a very urgent question to ask....i'm a new bie here and to a resonable extent i have read some of the post here, however please i need some clarification.

I was filling my DS-160 form today and I realise some questiones werent in mine as opposed to the questions of some of my colleagues who also filled theirs. Questions such as whether i have travelled before or my expected date to departure from the U.S. Also my previous education. And after completion just to print a sample i was told that i have filled my data for my NIV application bla bla bla....please i am lost here. can you kindly be of help. Thanks sad sad sad
