I am intrested in dis Answer too..
Any help people?

you can actually study with sowp but it has to be a program that is less than 6 months.

[quote author=dsquare4u post=47774248][/quote]

Na lie oh, no go there oh, its another added lie to ur application, remember the last page of the online app when u signed dt u re the one that submitted ur app urself nobody helped u in filling d form nd then u are asked to put ur name, passport number, and dt numerical or alphabetical barcode CIC generates.
Remember u typed yes cos i guess u wont type no. If u now say that sombodi filled ur app for u nd CIC checks dt dont u think na grammy award of lies u dey nominate ur self under dis added one oh. Just write that letter of clarification thesoj requested u write nd be truthful so u wont make ur app more complicated, remember they will be watching ur app in 3D now if u submit anoda one cos they do dont trust u. Be wise dear.

Thanks @Thesoj you are a great man. The information you put in this thread is very valuable. God bless you. I am really surprised that my application was processed in Paris, France.

You didn't submit an "Authorisation of Representative Form" earlier to show that you actually used a representative to apply for your study permit. Saying that the agent you used made the mistake will only discredit your application further. thesoj has said it all. Just write a separate letter explaining why you made such mistake.

Thanks so Much..

Yes you are right..didnt even think of that. If he can still submit previous visa application forms to prove his point. I think he can add with the letter of clarification.

Hmmmmmm.. ... Masters or PGD ?

please i need a well composed sop as a sample to draft mine.pls any body with a gud one shld help tnx

I don't understand what this SOP is actually for. If it is just a letter explaining why you chose your desired course and why you chose to undergo the course in Canada, put these as answers to the questions in the study permit questionnaire. At least that's what I did. I filled every part of the study permit questionnaire and it covers these issues. LOE on the otherhand, in my opinion, should be written when you have a complicated or peculiar application.

#my 2 cents

I will like to tell you that the fact that u did not submit a S.O.P and you got your TRV does not mean that any other person should not submit. There is someone on this thread who got denied on the fact that he didn't added the statement of purpose and was later denied on "purpose of visit" so please don't discourage people from writing their S.O.P. there are so many things that your S.O.P can contain(not only the reason for choosing the proposed course of study). No offense meant please and please am not out here to attack anyone. Just my own opinion.

On the contrary @penitential, @uchethalial101 is very correct in my opinion. An LOE should be used to explain any complications or discrepancies in someone's application. An SOP on the other hand should explain your "statement of purpose" and here you can tell your story if need be. From my understanding, @uchethalial101 is not discouraging anyone from using either or both forms of letter but is contributing an observation so that people would not muddle the two up. If there are fields within the application form which give one an opportunity to state his purpose of application, why then should one write another SOP?

Hello Guys, Please is there anyone presently in Victoria or Nanaimo British Columbia. Please send me a message I need some information

i will be going to that side do u need accommodation, applied since may 24th no reply O!!!

@[/b][/color]chebe, thanks for the observation but am not saying [b][color=#006600]uchethalia101 is wrong about her statement, I only said she should not make it look as if S.O.P is outrightly not needed. Becos a S.O.P. it only gives room for further explanations and and expression of interest in course of study, and the likes. And at times, u tend to convince the V.O the more about your intention of studying in Canada with a 'very well drafted S.O.P' thanks.

Hi. I'm entitled to my opinions and so are you. However, SOP isn't listed as one of the compulsory documents to submit. People have been denied TRVs even after submitting SOPs. If one can prove that his/her purpose of visit is to simply study and not migrate permanently to Canada with the study permit questionnaire, then there is no need for an SOP. The fact that something isn't needed doesn't mean you can't submit it but why repeat yourself. It could be seen as a desperate move. Alot of people fail exams because they provide too many jargons with or without the right answers.

Hi all..let there be calmness..lemme chip in something. According to www.cic.gc.ca it stated even if you do not need a study permit,you can still apply and write a letter addressing it to the VO why you want to study in canada which it called LOE. Moreover NAIJA checklist has the questionnaire which answers the key points,moreso GHANA checklist has Study Plan as a requirement in their checklist which outlines the key points of where your "study plan" should be revolving..if you are in doubt download Ghana study permit checklist and see study plan as their requirement. So LOE/SOP can be used to clarify some information which a VO might find difficulty in understanding since they don't conduct interview but if you feel ur application is str8 forward you can still do without it. Some people write SOPs and still VO doesn't see consistency on their purpose of visit(intended program), VOs often atimes state on GCMS note that an "applicant has not provided compelling reason for study in Canada or reason for study in canada remains unclear".Does this don't sound to you that SOP is needed even though it wasnt a requirement in our Naija checklist? some are lucky while some are not. TRY TO PLAY SAFE THAN HAD I KNOWN

GoodDay Everybody, pls am about to apply online for a Canadian study visa and was wondering if after having a letter from my sponsor and account statement do I still need to attach my own statement? Must my sponsor swear an affidavit? Am married with Two kids and am going alone.

We are in Nigeria and not Ghana. We have our own checklist. You dont need to complicate issues. I didn't say peeps can't submit SOP. You can if the questionnaire doesn't give you room to explain your purpose of visit but if it does, why waste time on a separate letter. It's simple!!!

I have been a silent reader on this platform and used the immense knowledge on this forum to apply for study permit .

Note:
Received help with the application and docs gathering. Trust me the whole process is an emotional roller coaster. My advice is that trust God all through. Lose no hope at all. It will end in praise. To all the TRV hopefuls it will surely end in praise. Reading from part 1 was no waste.

the college should be able to provide that, or she can install UBER on her phone, safe way to travel this days.

Please did she apply for a Bachelors, PGD or a masters? i applied since the 24th of may CIC has not even called me for medicals yet, very frustrating. just wondering if they don't want people coming for PGD again? Then they should tell heir universities to start taking 2:2 so we can all apply for masters.

[quote author=uchethalia101 post=47787534]
Bro/Sis please i was never complicating issues. I was exemplifying instances and the need for one,which i also stated if one feels his/her application is straight forward, you can go head without it.Also if the 2pages study permit questionnaire only was enough to state ones purpose, why then do VOs state an applicant has not provided compelling reasons for study in canada or reasons for study in canada remains unclear? That means a detailed paragraphed convincing flowing statement should be written! to address your purpose of intended visit to canada which only the questionnaire cannot serve that purpose.one funny thing about this thread is a day will just come and 1 debate will start trending
