For those of us that got the NSE request and submitted the documents they requested for and their eligibility review hasn’t started yet it’s possible they might have started but it’s not just showing on your portal. I got this from ircc this morning even if it’s showing that my eligibility review hasn’t started yet

Good day,



Your file is under active review. You will be advised of the next steps or decision once the review is completed.

Hello everyone. I have figured out what I was bothering myself about. I didn't even submit the ticket, I only uploaded it and waited for reply. Sha I'm officially tired of this process. It's draining

Elizdee:


Thank you so much. I also got a correspondence letter today .. I think that’s what they call LOI

Aissy:
Please can I start my application before the date of my upfront medical and later upload the document I get from the hospital?
I would really appreciate any advice, thank you

TeeNas:
Good morning,
My passport is ready for collection and I want to pay for the courier service offered by the VFS but I’m not seeing any email to send the proof of payment.Please help me out if you know what I can do.

Inioluwa1:
I empathize with you... My two cents that worked for me: Do your upfront medical, get it uploaded and when it has been sent, follow this pattern and format in this link to remind them of your application being past standard processing time with pleading undertones https://www.nairaland.com/6321900/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/228#98846426
IT WILL END IN PRAISE

Samsn456:

Rootiab:
Good evening everyone. It's been over 24 hours since I uploaded mybankstatement ticket and it's still showing action required, please what can I do.

mobbwc:
Hello @awys Can you please clarify/confirm that asides the gift of deed (from your mum to you) you did not submit any bank statement of your mum (your major sponsor) just as you didn't submit for the her company?

Look forward to hearing from you.

Graced08:
Hello everyone!!
Thank God for the good news everywhere.It shall end in Praise for us all in Jesus name.
Pls I have a question for those who got their visas in the past few weeks.
Pls what does the LOI looks like and is it meant to come with the decision envelope we get from IRCC? Nobody has really said anything about it here.
Thank you.

Inioluwa1:
Good day everyone, LONG POST ALERT (But believe me when I say it is supposed to be longer)
I have been a silent and longsuffering reader of this thread, actively reading since like Part 14 or 15.
On Tuesday the 9th of February 2021, I got the much-awaited PPR!
This is my gist:
December 2019, I reignited my dream to go to Canada. I genuinely wanted a career change from Law to HR. I finished with a 2:2 (Second Class Lower) in both Law and my first degree in English (I’m a young old man – 27 going to 28), and a 2:1 (Second Class Upper) from Law School. It was good enough to get me a decent job in Nigeria but the reality is stark and rather disappointing (Nigerian Lawyers dey suffer… but that is gist for another day).
With deep research, I chose to make the career switch, starting with paid online course which bagged me a diploma in Human Resources. I took this with hopes of one day becoming a specialist with my background in Labor Laws and Employment Legislation, by God’s grace. It was a big and tall dream. My target job and related field was and is increasingly always in Top 3 in-demand and top paid jobs in Canada. But we all know man proposes and God blesses as He wills.
I initially started off with interest in Express Entry under the FSW, but the impediment was my years of foreign work experience - less than a year. I wrote my IELTS and passed with 8.0. Overall Band Score, did my evaluation with WES (getting a transcript from Nigerian institutions is a task I wouldn’t wish on my enemy) but the CRS score was still too low. The only way to boost is was to effectively be fraudulent and risk a five-year ban. No, that was too much of a risk. I was advised by an acquaintance to try study route. How? I had no knowledge of it and I didn’t graduate with 2:1 that I could try Masters. I did my research and applied to two schools for a Business Diploma in Human Resources (I was adamant I wanted Saskatchewan for “personal” reasons.) and got admission offer into Great Plains College, Swift Current. This was EIGHT months after I started my Canada plans. I dumped EE for study with age not really being on my side as I intended to use my mother as the sole sponsor (Salary was nothing to write home about) for an ordinary diploma… me, a graduate with two university degrees, NYSC, and a qualified Lawyer. The odds were heavily and massively stacked against me. I waited and waited and waited and it seemed the world was passing me by and I wasn’t making progress. I broke down many times and kept my sincerity in my relationship with God even in my imperfection.
Nairaland and this thread is a big blessing. I got so much insight from being humble enough to learn from everyone.
My Application Timeline goes thus,
- Applied Online: October 6, 2020
- Biometrics Request: October 7, 2020
- Biometrics Completed: October 9, 2020

- PPR and BVL and GCMS Notes all dropped: February 9, 2021
A total of FOUR months and 3 days passed and EVERY SINGLE DAY was excruciating. I prayed, fasted, and made covenants with God. I dipped into depression more than once… He gave me Jeremiah 29: 11 and I prayed for favour every night before I slept and every morning before I opened my eyes, I reminded God of His promises in His word. I got my Joy back even before the miracle happened. I was instructed to do what Otunba, lekiboboe and especially Awys did in their various posts like https://www.nairaland.com/6321900/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/228#98846426 and it worked! I am grateful to Blavkmaann , your posts gave me hope and cheered me up and FrankRobbn1 you’re a blessing. I can’t mention everyone but you’ve all inspired me.

Documents submitted:
1. Application for Study Permit made outside Canada (FORM imm1294e)
2. Application for Temporary Residence (FORM imm5257f)
3. Client Information
a. My Statement of Purpose
b. My Birth Certificate
c. My siblings’ Birth Certificates
d. My academic and professional certificates: First Degree Cert, Second Degree Cert, WAEC Cert, Online Diploma Cert, Law School Cert, NYSC Cert, and Call to The Bar Cert.
e. Academic Transcripts from both Universities attended (Student Copy suffices)
f. IELTS General Test Result
g. There was an IRCC Form filled from school I attached.
h. Police Certificate
i. Father’s Death Certificate
j. Study Questionnaire
4. Digital Photo
5. Family Information (FORM imm5645e)
6. Letter of Acceptance
7. International Passport Data Page
8. Proof of Means of Financial Support:
a. Sworn Affidavit for support by mother duly notarized
b. Letter of appointment/confirmation of appointment at work for mother
c. Salary Payroll of the sponsor (mother) for 6 months prior to application
d. Sponsorship Letter
e. Relevant Work certificates for sponsor
f. Printed and scanned Bank Statements of sponsor for 4 months prior to application (Current and Savings totalling 5.4 M Naira)
g. Proof of Sponsor’s Rent Collection over property signed by her Lawyer.
h. Receipt and confirmation of payment of Tuition Deposit of $CAD 8,500 for a Semester
i. Sponsor’s International Passport data page
j. Certificate of Occupancy of sponsor’s property
k. Employment/Work Identity Card of Sponsor
l. Bank Investment Account worth 3.04M Naira

NOTE: When I got the NSE Request for a Mybankstatement Cert, I initially sent series of webforms and mails that I don’t want to do because I was seeing $CAD 30,000 minimum when we barely had half! I was led to submit it with a balance of 3.6M Naira (having already paid $CAD 8,500 deposit) because upon reading the letter again, it said “Proof of Financial Support A mybankStatement certificate showing sufficient funds for your studies for at least 6 months and 12 months of banking history”, which mean (to my new understanding) half of the requirement for a year’s sufficient funds… English can be hard.
Let me not bore you. I hope and trust I have been able to restore someone’s faith here. Don’t be moved by what you see (even on this forum, I saw people with over ten times of what my mother has and even being fully-funded and what not, not getting approved, I’m not despising anyone - God forbid, just keep the faith and DO YOUR HOMEWORK well, God cannot be mocked.), your joy is key – don’t lose it, keep busy and don’t stay idle - depression sets in faster then, a delay can never be a denial.
I’ll be resuming September 2021. Let me stop here, it has ended in praise!
