Good evening everyone, please for those that have travelled and are in Canada, Must one be fully vaccinated at least 14 days before your planned date of travel to Canada? I plan to take the second dose of vaccine on Monday, should I wait after 14 days of taking it to arrive?

Kema22:

Hello guys, I am a May 14th applicant still expecting My PPR. In June and July I ordered for my GCMS note. My eligibility review started on June 1 or 2 (can't remember exactly) Two that came in July Eligibility was Review Required. Yesterday the last one came in as Recommend Interview. Meanwhile, preassessment note is blank. And all three notes came in without any seemingly reasonable information. Bikonu, is this a good sign? Any one had that experience? What should I expect?

Help a worried May 14th applicant!

Emmasonic4me:


So here's the details:

DLI: Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec.
Programme: MSc. Actuarial Mathematics
Programme duration: 2 years
Admission: April 26th
Application submitted: May 14th
Biometrics request: May 15th
Upfront medicals: June 3rd
Biometrics done: June 4th
Medicals passed: June 11th
BVL: September 9th
PPR: September 9th

Documents submitted (in no particular order):

1) The 3 IRCC application forms for TRV, Study permit outside Canada and Family Information.
2) BSc. (Maths) Certificate and Unofficial Transcript
3) Advanced Diploma certificate in Business Administration and transcript (Obtained in 2019 in search of how to increase points for Express Entry)
4) SOP of 2 pages
5) Marriage Certificate
6) My birth certificate and Child's birth certificate showing names of mother and father from NPC.
7) Pictures showing registry wedding in 2020, family picture during child's dedication and pictures taken on my child's birthday to "emotionally" demonstrate happy moments for home ties.
8 ) 3 different land documents (deed of assignment) all in my name with only one having survey plan. This is to address economic ties and assets.
9) Current job offer letter, 3 months pay slips, salary increment letter, work ID card, introduction letter from my employer and study leave letter stating I'm eligible to apply for study leave upon getting my study permit approved.
10) Screenshot evidence of applying for CAQ. The CAQ Approval Letter came later and I sent via webform and emails.
11) My passport data page (Virgin passport...lol)
12) Admission letter (LOA) with full funding that covers cost of entire study in excess of $56k CAD
13) 2 MBS from Stanbic IBTC Bank. One for salary account (Bal N170k) and savings account (Bal N600k) with very good cash inflows and outflows.
14) IELTS General TRF to expire in November
15) Police Character certificate
16) Resumé which should address study gaps.

The story:
I started this Canada waka since 2017 targeting PR in Express Entry Category. In the quest to get the target score to max language points for EE, I wrote IELTS 3 times. I missed a particular EE bi-weekly draws by 3 points...very painful I must say. My profile in the EE pool eventually expired and I wrote the 4th IELTS which luckily I now used to satisfy NSE requirements (although that NSE thing na scam).

I applied to 3 different schools, U of Ottawa, Simon Fraser and Concordia. Ottawa admitted me without funding but Concordia came late to the rescue with better funding. My first degree was in Mathematics (CGPA 4.36/5.00) and it aligned with my proposed study in Actuarial Mathematics. Did I mention that I graduated in 2010? What a huge study gap! I was so worried about this but the advanced diploma I did in 2019 belled the cat. I graciously stated that in my SOP that the diploma is recent and although I have been away from classroom for long, I came out with distinction in the diploma (CGPA 4.09/5.00).

I was not sure if the deed of assignment documents for the lands in my name made any difference but I added them because of what I read from others here. I believe this, the family pictures with wife and child staying back in Nigeria, proof of employment and letters from employer emphasized strong home and economic ties.

At some point, I read about a denial for a fully funded applicant and my heart sank for a moment. I did not submit any extra funding letters from my supervisors. I assumed all the details they need are there on the admission letter. However, I carefully mentioned the funding part in my SOP and included email address of my supervisor (hoping any clarification they might need about the funding should be directed to him...I dont need any additional documents request abeg...lol). My admission letter was a conditional offer (the condition was the official transcript I am yet to send) and it gave me concerns when people here were emphasizing unconditional offer letters.

I almost lost my mind frequently checking for updates on my application. I was even begging God for a ghost update to be sure my application has not been abandoned and gathering "online dust" already. I never saw any. My eligibility and background check started 2 days after biometrics was done. After medicals was updated to passed on June 11th, all I got was a long silence until today that the eagle landed. BVL and PPR mails dropped 3 minutes apart around 6.23am. Currently, I have deferred my admission to Winter 2022 starting in January but yet to get a new/revised LOA.

In summary, everything was a miracle from God. Irrespective of my sinful nature, the Almighty God decided to show me mercy and grace prevailed. I really can't capture all the details but these are the highlights.

Finally, God answered my calls and granted me amnesty!!! All Glory and honour be to Him alone. Thank you to all the people contributing positively on this thread. This Nairaland is a goldmine. Special thanks to the brain behind this forum @seun and all the moderators.

To all of you expecting the miracle, receive it in Jesus' name. Amen.
Please I got admission to the same school for Jan 2022 I am in urgent need for help on how to go about my visa application. I sent you a private message

Hello People,

Been long I have been here. However, today I got a medical request for my student permit application. My problem is there is no space available within 30 days to undergo and submit the medicals.

Anyone with experience on this that can proffer a solution or a way to go about it.

Thanks in advance.

Abeg abeg abeg, don't spread unverified information. The figures are calculated based on the primary applicants and number of dependants. So pls do your homework well before spreading confusing information here.

Thank you

Pls help me, how do I go about it? it was after I read up here that people did upfront that it occurred to me…. Pls help as I have no clue a all�

You are still thinking?

If you had done your medicala prior to now, you'll be waiting for decision and not medical request.


Please do it ASAP.

Best advice won't be possible until the notes arrival.

Despite that,I think your POF needs repackaging. I'm certain that one of the refusal reasons would have been fund related. A 15m in a third party sponsor's account without any financial commitment, sometimes won't fly.

Immediate family sponsorship is easier, infact it's considered the best, Ioan can be sourced from anywhere and I'll advise it should go into your tuition payment while the living expenses is paid into your account. It's a good thing that dad and mum are gainfully employed,any other form of income source; business ,investments or properties will make it more beautiful.

But like I earlier said, the gcms note will be our map.
