Hi everyone,
Its about 25 working days since i did my medicals at Marien clinic (results left nigeria for france on July 5) and returned my int'l passport back to the embassy(along with a pre-paid courier envelope and my medical license)
I wonder why the delay and i've sent them emails stating that my school resumes on Aug 20. All i get is an automated response saying they'll get back to me as soon as a decision is reached.
Pls guys, wat else should i do?
Is there a possibilty of denial after medicals?

@buchy321, dont worry you will get it
b/w, which school are you going to? its rather weird that school will resume for you on August 20th as even high skool students here would resume Sept. 7

@ Hotstepper,
Am goin for MPH at the uni. Of Saskatchewan.
Term 1 starts of with the introductory class, Foundations of PUb.Hlth from Aug 20 - Sep 3 and its compulsory for all incoming MPH students.
I pray for a positive response ASAP.
Thanks.

@ Bobobabe,
Congrats !
How long did it take for the TRV to be issued after your medicals?

@buchy321, oh ic, still weird though

IELTS only!

@buchi, i was called for interview two weeks after my medical and the interview was based upon my immediate family i.e my wife and my daughter. My TRV was issued that day that means just 10 working days after my medical. Believe in HIM , They will surely grant u. it is well

Gentlemen,

It would seem as if the no of people who had been directed to do medical yet were not issued TRV within 4 or 5 weeks after has risen this year. I personally know four people who are patiently waiting for TRV after doing medicals.

Well I am perplexed because my school will resume in the next two weeks and this silence from the canadian high commission is hindering my preparation. just cant bring myself to prepare when I am still waiting for the visa to be issued.

I am thinking of doing a mail to my school to do a reminder to the High Commission, is that a wise move your sage advice will be welcome.

Hi Buchy321, nice to know ur heading to USask. I am planning to apply there for Fall 2011. Did u write GRE/Toefl? Did ur offer include any form of funding? I really hope you don't mind my asking; I just need to prepare adequately and weigh my options carefully. Thanks.

If you haven't heard so close to your resumption date, GO TO THE HIGH COMMISSION and request to see someone.

It is too late to be calling and sending emails right now - stop 'waiting' and ACT.

Rodolpho and Buchy this is directed at you. . . .if you continue to wait, the date might just pass you by with no response.

@ neroflick,
U of S offers financial support for MPH students but its very competitive. They do not require GRE but TOEFL is optional.
A high score in TOEFL with a great undergrad record can get you some funding especially with the tuition.
Good luck and God willing we'll see in school.

Folks;
After reading this wonderful thread, and applying for visa successfully (well ahead of time); I'm finally headed to Edmonton in about 2 weeks time.

Thanks y'all !!!

@Rare, welcome to Edmonton (The City of Champions). I hope you like the city.

YAYYYYY! Congrats Rare, Wishing you journey mercies

lanresz:

@Rare, welcome to Edmonton (The City of Champions). I hope you like the city.

@Lanresz, The city of champions? Any particular reason. Just curious.

How safe is it to travel with cash? Been thinking best way to carry money across.

@Rare, its safe nd u can carry up to $10,000, just keep it with you

My employers won't let me be; bringing new job offers, mmmhhhhh. I really don't want to look back oohh. Confusion galore !!!

Why can't they believe me when I say I'll return.

Men, 49 working days,10 weeks, where is hope, peops i beg, what do u think.
@ rare, if u'r in the IT world, i can hold on to ur new job offer o, cuz am so confused now, resigned my job to go to skool,now 10 weeks and no reply.

is anyone here who applied after june 8th, and has done medicals, or do u know of anyone,

@Rare, Edmonton is called the city of champions because both the football club and the hockey club had won all the throphies possible. It is possible to travel with money just do as Hotstepper said.

@Deneks4; you resigned before final visa decision? Is that called faith? Or you always hated the job.

@ Rare, are u going to university of alberta, if so gimme there too by september 7th because we need to continue the good network of nairaland.

@rare, do u know anyone who applied in later than june 4th and has a response yet, i mean any response, either negative or positive, cuz everybody seems to be on hold, i even saw someone who told me they don't do medicals no more.

Hello people,
I've been out for a while. Hope every one is doing great. I am still waiting for a response from them since my medicals- its been two weeks now.

@ deneks 4, when i went for my medicals two weeks ago, I met someone who submitted on the 8th of June and he was there for his medicals as well. Maybe u should try calling them and sending e-mails. Better still, u can go to their office to find out what is slowing things down cos fall term is around d corner. Best of luck.
