VIsa Background: I have had 2 previous Canada Visits refusals,one student visa refusal and USA refusal(at renewal).I mentioned them on the forms but only talked about the Study permit refusal on my letter of explanation.

PPR: 16th May 2022.
Sent Enrollment letter through Webform in January (I resumed classes online).
I finished first term online and took a break off the second term to wait for visa.

BACKGROUND
I started following this thread In 2018,that time ehn refusal rate was high,And processing time na die!.I got discouraged,I decided to try visiting visa and was denied twice,then I gave up on Canada.Last year I decided it was time to Japa.Masters in UK was the plan I was already in the process when i realized I could actually just try Canada first.I immediately came back and started reading this thread,I contacted one of your favorites here to handle my application but unfortunately I was refused.I dusted myself up,encouraged myself by myself immediately based on knowledge gathered here,I did my thing myself this time,wrote a New SOP(when Gcms came,they said my study plan was poorly documented and vague!),if only VO knew how much I paid e no go talk that rubbish…lol.Well I gathered all the missing documents,I knew could address the concerns and refired.

What I did differently
1. I included my CV(I had seen people get PPR without submitting it,so I didn’t add it in the first app).

I created a table of content and a link to each document so it’s easy for VO to access them.

NOTE: Na God dey give PPR in all.There is nothing like too much documents,just ensure it’s relevant to prove your case,I added only the basics in the first application and I thought my app was well packaged but basics didn’t work for me,even the SOP by a guru who handled my app from start to finish didn’t cut it.Imagine all the extras I needed to prove my case,things that I never even attached much importance to,when I read timelines of people who added all these documents,I felt like they were doing the most but see me,I ended in those same shoes.
To add,one of my Gcms notes,also came in today.
Best wishes to everyone praying and believing God for PPR …May the Same joy locate you.

Congratulations …

Please, I need advice on this.
For POF, My mum paid part of my tuition fees and will send the remaining balance of tuition and living expenses into my account as a gift to her daughter. So I intend to submit only my statement of account because I want to use MBS. Should I submit her statement of account too? Confused right now..Please I need guidance.

Legacyedition:


@legacyedition please shed more light on this. I’m currently experiencing this , I’m on my last 24hrs deadline from the school to complete my payment via wire but till now no response from the online form A portal and no debit from bank yet, submitted documents for transaction since on Monday , what moves should we take. I’ll appreciate a response .


The deadline won't affect you. Worryless.

Anon123:


Did you include your own bank statement.

You shouldnt have said you are unemployed, that is enough reason to deny you. Being unemployed means to the VO, you are
1) using this avenue to japa without return,
2)your employment situation does not support the funds that may have been in your account(if you submitted your own bank statement)
3) finally your employment situation proves that you do not intend on returning after graduation and as you dont have strong ties linking you to country asides family.

Therefore when reapplying ensure you mention you are currently employed and include all relevant employment docs to prove this.
