-How was your SOP
-Who was your sponsor/What's the relationship of your sponsor to you
-Was there any commitment from your sponsor

Juleskiki:
@imade, I feel you should state your complete profile including all docs submitted and order your GCMS note. So that we can advise you appropriately.

sorry for the delay..

sillysassysally:
So sorry about your denial... I pray things work out for you in the end!
do you mind sharing your timeline?

Lolz...tNaijaforeigner is my boss and more experienced on Canadian visa applications..my opinion is follow wat he said

Naijaforeigner:


My opinion, you can decide to send 5M to your acccount at once. All you need to do is explain clearly who sent the money to you and why (Attach your SOA and the SOA with which your sponsor used to send the money. This shows proof the money came from your sponsor).

When I applied last year, over 9M was sent to my account within 2 weeks. I used some of the money to get admission, sort out application and paid almost 2.5M to make deposit to my school and was left with about 6M when I applied. I used that same account for my TRV application (Attached my mothers business SOA as support document because the money came from that account and to show she has a business with good cash flow and CAC certificate).

What you need to do is explain the source. Make sure your explanation makes sense to even a dunce. Always, Always, Always assume the Visa officer knows nothing. You can make a table detailing the date the money left your sponsors account and the day it reflected in your account.

After explaining who transferred the money, attach proofs such as letter of employment, SOA of the sponsor and so forth. If the sponsor does not bear same surname, put a diagram explaining how he relates to you (family tree). Finally, WHY has he/she decided to sponsor you? Make sure you give a very good reason.

U can take a recent photo...since he's your dad's cousin, u need to explain the linkage..and explain why your dad cousin wants to sponsor u on your SOP. You can say your dad's dad helped him wen his family was struggling financially..now sees sponsoring you now is a way to show his deepest appreciation for what your grand dad did..... nobody can actually type or write an SOP for u...u need to Google it...wen u are done, I can proof read it for u..though am not an expert o..

It's not mandatory but since he is your uncle, pls include a pic of you, him and your parents or dad at least to truly show you all are related...den on your SOP u will need to explain how you guys are related..also include his birth certificate, draw a family tree to show the linkage...see ehh it's tough but it's best u do all this to clear a VO who doesn't know u...
don't let rejection scare u, if u can get a sample of an SOP that will guide u o not copy and paste..u will need to take your time and write the SOP..cover all loopholes.. Finally u need to be fast cos Fall is september and processing time is 5months (20weeks)

042viber12:


The VO would really need to see a career progression in ur CV...wen u say menial job..is it related to wat u did in your Bsc..if it's not, well..u need to work on that...yes your sponsor needs to write that explaining why he chose to sponsor u...that idea to work for him also helps to tell the VO that u are definitely coming back wen u are done..in your CV, if u can include that u worked for him on a contract basis or trainee..good and fine..that way the VO will see that u v been working in that field and u have decided to seek a higher education in that field..

042viber12:


A balance of 20mil showing on your sponsors 6months SOA is very good..honestly u need something to be in your account.. 5mil at least to cover for your living expenses even though u have a sponsor but dy want to see that u can take care of yourself incase the sponsor isn't available immediately, or dy want to see u are totally financially convered

I understand your uncles plan, following that route, u ll be eligible to be offered permanent residency...it's all good but now u need to explain on your SOP why u are going for the GIS programme and not a masters...this here is were u need to be very very convincing cos all the VOs believe u are coming over and not planning on returning to your home country...so u need to explain why that cos is very important for u to do and not a masters...
