cman4good: please, my sponsor is my uncle with different surname, are my to fill his family details in my family information form.
Secondly, are my print my family inform, Letter of Explanation and sign before uploading.....
please i need your urgent advise....

The family information form is meant for your immediate family members so you are not expected to fill your uncle info in it. I think your uncle is from your mother side, so u will need to get birth certificate of your mum and that of your uncle as part of your supporting document.
You are advise to fill your visa application (including the family information form) on a computer in order to minimize the likelihood of error.
If you are submitting online, you are not required to print and sign d documents except if you are submitting via paper route. Success in your application.

ManTiger:
Thanks boss, i was able to compress and merge into MSword to form a docx, please have i done the right thing?
though ms word is part of the format.

Since doc format is one of the allowed format. I believe u av done d right thing. Success in your application

LyfeJennings: i need someone to please help me with form imm1294.... im having issues downloading it

Upgrade your PDF application or use a system that has an upgraded version. I won't advise u use a cybercafe except if u don't have access to internet at home. It's just my advise

kennycooly: PLEASE I NEED ADVICE FROM ANYONE..my uncle is my sponsor and am about to start my application online but he said he cant send some documents like bank statement and that he can only send it to canada embassy direct...my question is that can it possible for him to send the personal documents direct to the embassy either via electronic means...please someone should advice on what i can do....Thanks

If u are applying online, give your uncle your user name and password so that he can upload the financial documents wherever he is

ManTiger:
i converted it and cic online keep saying the format is not supported.
i don convert to doc but yet to upload

Most likely the conversion is not properly done and
If the size of the document is more than 4MB, u will need to compress/reduce it

ManTiger: i merged some docs together and having problem uploading... saying only pdf, doc etc can be uploaded, any way out?
thx

Convert d document to either PDF or doc format and then upload it

The conquering power that brings Canadian Embassy to its knees on your case is your FAITH in the living God.

I encourage you to believe in HIM as regards your case and goodnews will be yours in Jesus name!!!
Amen

temidel: II give all the Glory and honor to God Almighty for his grace and unending mercy. My TRV story became successful with nothing else but Gods UNMERITED FAVOUR…indeed!! My story was an exception to the rules or norm!!
I applied online for my TRV on the 1st of July, 2014 only to discover a few days later that I made a huge mistake with my application…I discovered the following:

(1) CIC FORMS: My Family information form was totally incomplete and I also gave wrong information. Due to rush or sheer carelessness I entered a wrong date of birth for myself, which is totally different from my real age (what’s in my international passport). my parents are deceased and I did not include their death dates and city as requested on the form, I failed to declare if I had children or not and sign as required (even though I’m currently single let alone to have kids). I also did not include the country of birth of my siblings in the space provided. and ooops!! I remembered what someone said on this thread about how CIC declines application for people who either provide wrong information or fail to fill their forms completely (https://www.nairaland.com/1475467/travelling-canada-part-5/347)



(2) LOE: My letter of Explanation was not as detailed as it may have been for most people in here. Though just a page, no introduction, didn’t state why I chose to study in Canada, didn’t mention why my uncle was my co-sponsor, let alone state what he stands to benefit from sponsoring me. I only talked about why I chose my course of study, what my academic expectations are and the gap I hope to fill back home with the skills I acquire after study. I also talked a little about my work experience and why I decided to study in the school where I got admitted to and that was all.

I found out about this thread after I had submitted my application and I felt really depressed and looked forward to a denial. I sooo wished I had visited this thread before submitting my application and I knew it can only take Gods unmerited favor for this to be successful, so i fasted and did a lot of prayer work. In fact, at a point i stopped praying and still feared I was going to be denied but lo and behold:

I received a medical request on the 28th of July
Did medicals at Asaju-31st July
Passport Request- 5th August
TRV stamped and passport pickup-8th August

Documents submitted include: CIC forms, My account statement, my co-sponsors (Uncle) account statement, pension statement, Affidavit of sponsor, Letter of Sponsorship, my share certificate, SOP, letter of acceptance, employment letter, promotion letter, paystubs, staff id card, NYSC certificate, degree certificate and transcripts, police clearance certificate, passport info and digital photograph.

Note: I and my uncle don’t bear same surname and I didn’t include my parent’s death certificates

Moral of the story: There’s a God factor which supersedes every human endeavor and there can always be an exception to every rule. But only with God will all things be possible. Congrats to those who already got their TRV’s and to the medicals and TRV hopefuls, PLEASE commit everything to God. Even those who are over qualified still get denied. To those who use their time and resource (data, relevant documents) to attend to various queries in here and guide prospects with viable tips on the application process(Even more than most agents would do)…God will duly reward you with Favor in everything you set your heart to do…
Sorry for the Long, yet inspiring story

Canada can’t wait to receive a star!!!!....... Have a great day all.

Ultimately God was involved in your case. Congrats.

The Lord says I should tell someone here, that news you are expecting will be good news in Jesus name.

Hello house,

Please, how can I add an extra sheet to the family information form (IMM5645) The space provided isn't enough for me

Thanks in anticipation

earthgreeners:


The amount that would cover the first year of your studies

i.e School Fees + living expenses (Accommodation, food, clothing, entertainment, health etc)

Basically, living expenses is estimated at $10,000

Except you have an Official Fee Schedule from your school that indicates otherwise

Example: If your total school fees is $9,000, the amount you would fill in the form would be $19,000

Thanks so much for your timely response. God bless u real good

You can only apply for student visa in Ghana if you reside there or have a Ghanian passport.

But what if I decide to reside in Ghana for the duration of the visa application processing time, will that work?
