With your TRV, you can only study in Canada for a program that is six months or less ... For your one 1yr pgc, you definitely need a study permit.

Thank you thebaft.

Thank you thebaft. I understand I need to apply for a study permit since my visiting visa is just for six months and my program is for one year.

Please which is more safer or reliable in your opinion? Applying for a study permit here in Nigeria or travelling to Canada and applying for a study permit right from there. Thank you.

Well technically, you do not get a study permit from the CDHC. You get more like a letter of introduction from them... You get the actual study permit at the POE. (I hope this is still the practice). So if you arrive at the POE without the letter, you may not be permitted to enter as a student.

Take a look at this link ...
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/temp/students/application.asp

It is a guide used by CIC staff for study permits. It will be very useful in your quest.

Good News, as at 12th of Jan 2016, they embassy were processing application received on 23rd of Nov 2015, so people in that time frame should expect collection/pickup sms soon from VFS. I wish everyone waiting the best of lucks and God's grace and mercy.

Hi everyone! I am new on this thread and have read through almost all the pages.

I want to seek your advise on this. I met an agent who said he can help me get a working visa in Canada and said it's only unskilled job he can process because my B.Sc degree cannot get me a skilled job because Canada doesn't value the qualifications here and he said I should pay 1.5M, flight ticket fee included and accommodation will be provided with the job in Canada.

My question now is aside the accommodation that will be provided can someone live a good life with unskilled job in Canada in terms of wages paid for unskilled jobs? And can I as well get myself a skilled job after a year or two doing unskilled job?

Please I need everyone's advice but no insult. Thank you all in advance.

You are about to waste your 1.5M because the agent is a fraudster. You can't secure unskilled job in Canada from Nigeria and you can't work legally with tourist visa in Canada. That agent is a thief and if you doubt me try it and see the result.

Hi Everyone!

I know Some people already have their visiting visa in this room, and some are just really experienced with the processing of the visa.

Can anyone who have recently or not, gotten their visiting visa pls give full detailed list of documents and forms they submitted for the application, please.

If you don't mind, I would also appreciate a bit description about your role as the applicant, I mean if you are a worker or student, and if you submitted through online, or vfs.


Thank you

Thanks justwise. The agent told me to submit my cv and credentials and yet I was told he can only get me unskilled job. I just wonder.

Please ignore that thief. He will not be able to get you any job. This is scam. once your money get into his hands that is it.

This is the thread for Canadian work programs https://www.nairaland.com/2624318/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled

If your skills is listed there then you can start the processing but it takes time, more than a year.

Like i said before don't be a victim, that thief is after your money nothing else
