Fam, I’m considering applying for spring session admission and just wants to know where to find the materials for school search.

When is best time to start applications for spring admission? Thank you

Oliveth19:
There are Angels here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My first Visa application was delayed in January 2021 and I deferred my Admission to fall.
Reapplied on 15th May 2021 after analyzing the GCMS Notes and gathering more information from here!!!!!!

People were even telling me that I need an Agent but I insisted that I don't see the reason for that since all that I needed is here.

God did it for me. My PPR just landed this morning.
No need for an Agent or special WhatsApp group if you can read, comprehend and pray �

I will come back to give details

What God can not do does not exist!!!!!
Best of luck to those expecting PPR

Congratulations Oliveth

FYI

If you deferred your admission.

See link scroll down to Deferred Enrolment

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/service-delivery/coronavirus/temporary-residence/study-permit/eligibility.html

Deferred enrolment
After a study permit application is submitted (150 days or less)
If less than 150 days have passed since the intended program start date, officers should continue to process the study permit application. A new letter of acceptance is not required.

After a study permit application is submitted (more than 150 days)
If more than 150 days have passed since the intended program start date, officers should request a new letter of acceptance from the applicant to confirm if the student has deferred their enrolment to a later date.

If clients are unable to provide a new letter of acceptance and have not provided an explanation with their application stating that they are affected by service disruptions due to COVID-19, officers may use their discretion to either grant an extension to submit the new letter of acceptance or make a final decision with the information on file.

Sadly yes, HRM is a one program but if you can look into other courses related to HRM like strategic global business management.

But if your heart is set on HRM, you might need to consider lambton.

We pray for good news for everyone

May 6th. Second application

Hello Room!

I was going through the thread and I noticed that most applicants were refused of their study visas based on the following grounds shorlisted on this post and this has given most of them sleepness night, some have decided to quit the Canadian dream and end up having the mindset that Canadian study visa is tough and can not be easily approved unless you use an AGENT, some even go as far as paying millions to AGENTS just to get their study visa. I must tell you that it is a lie, most agents even go as far as complicating issues for applicant, which most times lead to misrepresentation and a 5 years Ban. After reading this post, you have to get up to your feet , beat your chest and do things in the right way and get your study permit app approved Asap.

RECENT REFUSAL GROUNDS:

1-) Purpose of visit
2-) Current employment situation
3-) Personal asset and financial status.
4-) family ties in Canada or home country.

In this post I'll address the above reasons and give POSSSIBLE WAYS to tackle the concerns of the visa officer.

1-) PURPOSE OF VISIT -

It is important that your visit coincides with an important event in your life or the purpose of the visit can be reasonably explained in your SOP. If it is for study you must have qualifications in that field or have the expertise in that area. Most times, your job role or company should be relevant to previous studies and to your chosen field of study in Canada.
If you decide to change career path, it should be clearly stated on your SOP with compelling/strong/ and convincing reasons to why you decide to change a career path.

Your letter of intent should reflect the following and should be addressed in each paragraphs to avoid repetition.
1-) Describe your academic background briefly.
2-) Why you choose Canada not Nigeria.
3-) The school.
4-) The program of choice.
5-)How you intend to finance your studies in Canada without working.
6-) What you intend to achieve at the end of the program and how it might benefit you in the future.

Everything should point to 'studying in Canada' not working or visiting friends and family in Canada or securing a PR after completion of studies.

Address all academic backlogs, study gaps, study plans etc... on your SOP.


2-) CURRENT EMPLOYMENTSITUATION

Every embassy will like to satisfy themselves that the applicant has a gainful employment in their country of residence and that the prospects of getting a job when they loose their current one is high. That satisfies them that you won’t leave your job when you travel to their country. Canada’s High Commission is no exception. You need to prove to them that you’ve been working for at least 2 years continuously, you earn a good salary, say CAD$400- CAD$1,000 plus a month depending on the level of your education, you have leave to travel, and you are qualified for the job you are currently employed in. So add your CV, school certificates, previous and current job offer letters, leave letters, pay slips and introductory notes from your firm to evidence your employment.

3-) PERSONAL ASSET AND FINANCIAL STATUS

Like most embassies, the Canadian High Commission will also be interested in your finances. Show a 6-month bank statement or more for any Canada visa application; both current and savings accounts, showing your salaries or income from employment. If you have treasury bills, building society savings, mortgages, microfinance or credit union savings and the pass book or certificates, share investments in companies etc, add all to prove you have enough financial resources before and after your trip. There is no cut off bank statement figure. So try as much as possible to show your monthly inflow and outflow of salaries in your salary bank statement with a good closing balance as a proof of financial establishment.

4-)

FAMILY TIES IN CANADA OR HOME COUNTRY

Prospective travellers who were refused with this point wondered why they should have a family in Canada before being given the visa. Note that the full statement is “family in Canada OR family in your home country”. So its either you failed to prove each criterion or both criteria, that is, whether you have family ties in Canada or whether you have family ties to your home country. This is what you do :

Show sufficient ties to your home country i.e. what will compel you to return home?

1-) Do you have a spouse and kids(minors) and are you leaving them behind?
2-) Do you have elderly parents who depend on you?
3-) Do you own businesses/property that you need to continue managing?
4-) Do you have adequate funds?
5-) Do you have family members whom are not accompanying you to Canada?

All these mentioned are HOME TIES, so if you have any of the following listed, endeavor to show evidence to each of them and make sure you add it to your application.

The above information is Legit and was obtained from a Canadian Legal personnel.

I wish you all Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.

All the best to the hopefuls and to the approved, CONGRATULATIONS!!!.

Good morning. What documents do I need to take to Q-Life for upfront medicals ?

And how do I get to Q-Life in VI from Ojodu Berger?

1: take your international passport with you.
2: Take bus heading to cms. Then take Eko hotel, when you get to eko hotel you can just order taxify to the venue #500 or if there's bike you can bike it

ManLikeMace:
In the past we used to make a list of people who were waiting for PPR. Let’s do it again. Reply with the date you applied and if you did your medicals already and also your resumption month.

Manlikemace: April 4th upfront medicals - sept

Second Application May 6th | Completed 50% learning online awaiting PPR decision before commencing final year.

dotoracs:
Two MPs (including Minister of Immigration, Marco Mendicino) have helped check the status of my application. One on June 12, the other August 18 and both of them confirmed that medicals/background check are passed, my legibility is in process and decision is yet to be made. However, my profile didn't say Eligibility has started.

I submitted my application April 8 and requested for GCMS notes on July 5. Till now, I have not received the notes. The vendor assisting me with it was sent a mail after several follow-ups that it was ready last week Friday and it'd be sent shortly. Till today, no note still.

My question is... What could be wrong with those ATIP people? It's just GCMS note for Christ sake!

Please can you help with Marcelino email address?

Frankrobbn1:
Apologies for this is coming late, my schedule has been very hectic and tight. Thus, my inactiveness on the thread for a couple of weeks now.

First and foremost, I would like to use this opportunity to officially welcome you all to the Canadian Student Visa Thread PART 20. I strongly believe that this new phase of the thread would bring postive changes on various applications and many shall share their success stories.

Secondly, I want to take this medium to invoke the power in the name of Jesus Christ and speak in life into every TRV applications awaiting response from IRCC. Today, I come with the full anointing of the Holy Ghost and I stand as an Oracle of the Most high God to decree and declare that as many of you that are believing God for TRV success, may God in heaven open every closed doors in your life and may the Visa officers at the Canadian embassy be forced to grant you your visas... Brethren, there is no immigration case God can't solve, believe in his word that “He has made everything beautiful in its time.” (The Bible, Ecclesiastes 3:11).

I therefore call forth the heavenly beings (Archangles) to take charge of every applications on this platform and perfect everything that concerns your application this time. This part 20 will be filled with lots of testimonies and success stories in Jesus Name!

If you believe strongly in the grace of God Almighty, as you punch on the LIKE BUTTON, may heaven intervene in your case and may your application find favour in the sight of the visa officer. As you shout the loudest AMEN!, may it come to perfection in Jesus name!.

Your Case is settled forever... Go and Rejoice for your success story is near.

Part 20 Grace --------------------------》100%Loaded!

I am rooting for everyone and looking forward to a prolific reign on this thread.

As always, IT WILL END IN PRAISES FOR EVERYONE

Ameen

Presido95:
Hi guys, I've been visiting this page periodically but never really commented because I didn't really know a lot about the process. I must say I really appreciate everyone who contributes to this great forum.

I am a first time applicant. After almost 8 months, I finally got an original passport request today. I submitted my application in January. Got a request for NSE but didn't do NSE cause I had no plan to do IELTS. I didn't send any reason to them though. My MBA program did not require an English test too.

Would be sending my passport to Abuja this week. Is there anything I should be getting ready for now e.g. Medicals. See what my application looks like now.

I wish everyone who is expecting a response a favorable outcome.

Congratulations
