Gobi38: @ Saga - Na canadian oyinbo lady called am. The Lady called her on the 3rd of December to pay her school fees ASAP and report back with proof of payment. Fees/accommodation were paid on the 7th, she submitted proof of payment on the 1oth in the morning. Same lady called her again in the afternoon - she is waiting for proof of payment. My sister went back to the embassy on the 11th, luckily we was allowed in, she met the lady and she confirmed every thing is ok, they have received proof to payment.

@ mercylicious - Her refusa letter is the normal letter folks that don't make it to medical stage gets.... Reason as follows : 1 .Your travel History , 2. Family ties . 3. Purpose of visit etc.

My quesiton why invite her for medical, call her to pay school fees, make a second call "we are still waiting for proof of fees payment" - This is big shocker for me. My poeple until you get visa for your hand - just keep praying for FAVOR.

Wow....this is the first time I'm hearing of such......please all our guru's in the haus....what do you guys think?....let's analyze this.

Siga: ...there is no job u cant do....once u get it, u can pretty much apply to any job....no limitations....but some employers might not want to employ u as ur work permit is temporary and that means once u go back to classes, ur work hours will go down to 20hrs a week and if the permit is not renewed, the job is vacant....so, to answer ur question....no job limitations

wow...dats kinda sad sha...coz right now im wondering......are there even any good jobs that are 20hours a week?......or do employers allow shifts?

henkyz .....you do not need a transit visa for rome,....i just confirmed it......infact as long as you have a valid canadian visa, you do not need a transit visa for all shengen countries. Please no go stress yourself.....you can confirm again by asking your airline.

Siga: ...sorry to come in...just feel I need to advise abit....with rentals....they come at times with 1yr lease and u need to pay first and last months rent....thats the way it is....u can present the receipt of the rent to the embassy and have ur landlord mail u and copy the embassy the info...thats if he/she is willing to do that....now, with the school accommodation been closed....have the school write you a mail stating what you just said or go on the school website and print the page that states the on-campus accomodation booking timeline....I hope this helps....another option is to call the school international office, ask for the student union leader and plead ur case...u will be suprised he might connect u to a Nigerian student who is willing to help....

wow....thanks siga.....would do....honestly ehhh i dont want to believe that i'm the first person with this kind of challenge.....its soooo not possible........any other solutions in the house?.......please i am all ears.....common mehhhn...someone has been in dis situation before or knows someone that has been .....please please advice.....thanks a million.

earthgreeners:

Warning: Do not negotiate off campus accomodation until you get to Canada or you have someone out there that can check it out on ur behalf.. Check with the Residence Office or the international Office @ your university for more info on On Campus and off campus accomodations.

At the point, I suggest you go for On campus accomodation which u can opt out after few months of ur stay to an Off campus accomodation.

If your school dont have accomodation, u can present a letter to CDHC informing them of ur concern on Off-campus accomodation. In this case you can have your school verify the fact that there are no On Campus residence.

@earthgreeners...thanks alot, but here exactly is my challenge.......upon my medical invite, the embassy says i should pay 1 year of my accomodation. Now, my school has currently no available on-campus residence. Applications for on-campus residency are done between february and june of the year.(my admission letter came in july). Now this leaves me with just the off-campus option. I have found a couple of off-campus locations i "think" i like. But the challenge is this......who on this earth ever pays 1 year for offcampus accomodation? does that even make sense?......how do i now want to explain that to the embassy. Most of the conditions surrounding off-campus accomodation is that you pay last month or both last and first months rent to secure the place......so what the hell do i need to submit to the embassy?.....im really confused.
