Nuendo: Hello All,

This is my first post on Niaraland although i have followed several threads for a few months now. I must commend the efforts of those who devote time to enlighten all of us. You guys have shown the positive sides of the internet and how it can be used for the greater good.

I am a graduate of architecture who just secured admission into Uni of Calgary for a 2 year masters in Architecture. I am hoping to start my visa application once i receive the hard copy of the admission letter. Having gone through various comments from part 3 - 4, i would like to ask the following questions and would appreciate answers based on experience.

1. Assuming i start my application process by Late April - First week of May, would it be to late considering a Sept 1st starting date?

2. Is it possible to apply for the visa through another country (GHANA TO BE PRECISE) considering the significant difference in the processing time (18 weeks vs 4 weeks)

3. My tuition is about 16,000 usd (2.5m naira approx), Living expenses/yr : 10,000 usd (1.5m) ; WOULD IT BE SAFE TO HAVE ABOUT 4.5m naira in the account i am presenting (My dad) for a successful visa app.

4. Finally, minus play_play mata , shey dis canadian visa application dey really reach that 18 weeks? My liver just dey cut since i see the tin. Abeg na so e be


I really look forward to timely responses from those with experience on the issue or similar.

Best Regards all,
YOU GUYS ROCK!!!

Nuendo.

No. 1 answer:

1) don't think its late to apply then...all you need to do is to ensure that the documents you present to CDHC are very straight forward (does not require strenous verification processes)

No 2 answer:

If and only if you're a citizen of Ghana,you can go ahead. If otherwise,save urself the unnecessary stress. I don't think its possible considering the fact that you must apply from your home country.

No.3 answer:

I don't think it will see you thru considering the fact that ur dad must have other dependants...abi you go carry the whole money go Canada and leave ur family to die of starvation Think about it my brother...
You can make the amount up to #8million

No 4 answer:
A)
Considering using an agent, I have a very lil knowledge,ßuђ all I can say is that they work with their checklist (just like CDHC),and once you meet with the criterias they listed (just like CDHC as well), you're sure of getting ur visa by God's grace.

4b) The shorter means of applying is at the moment under review ßuђ I feel the online method will be faster cos its still used by few and they'll try to gain people's confidence inusing it by making the time duration very short.


No. 5 answer:

If all the documents you presented to CDHC are unambiguous,you'll be thru before the stipulated 18 weeks.
Hint: make all the documents you intend to submit as concise and straight forward as possible.


I wish you all the best in your submission.

Siga: ..plz resend....

Its your own trv news we are expecting

Siga: Na lie....my addy na noshaking2012@gmail.com

GboyegaD: I applied through the online platform last week saturday and got an email today asking me to send my passport that my application has been approved. It took just 6 days. I just left the Post Office where I went to submit my documents. I wasn't required to do medicals or asked for my original documents although I attached scanned copy of my transcripts with my statement of interest. I hope to get my TRV next week all things been equal.
All I filled were the application form, my family form, schedule 1 and I attached my statement of interest including my transcripts, a scanned copy of my admission letter and a scanned copy of my letter of funding from my department. No originals were asked of me and I never bothered sending any.
To as many who are looking forward to theirs, I pray God Almighty grant the desires of your heart in Jesus Name.

OjaP:

Congrats bro!! Prolly because you applied from the US?

GboyegaD:

Thanks a lot bro. I think so too. I actually had like 6 admissions from the US however, I feel Calgary is the topmost of the schools I got in Economics and with the 4years guaranteed funding that requires just one semester of 10hours/week job, I think it is the best thing ever.

Huzzie:
Thanks bro, God's willing you will get the admission.

Rapuziaokwu: My fellow nairalanders..how has it been? Here in U of Sask wit Spencer...it has been very busy...thought I should say hi. Wish u all success.[/b][/color][size=8pt]

OjaP:

Wow!!! That's the best decision ever + you get your green card in your second year in the program.

I went for the AAPG conference in Halifax sometimes in 2011 and needed a Canadian Visa. I applied in the afternoon and got a 2year Multiple the following morning. I was like "so easy"? I think living or schooling in America open doors to many other countries.

Congrats again bro. I am happy for you.

ferdimako:

I really did not have ur timeline. Are you a Ghanian, studying in the Us and now moving to Calgary,Canada?
