Hello everyone

So here is my Timeline post.

I started this travel abroad journey last year and at a point I almost didn’t see it through cos there were a lot of hurdles. Major one was my passport which took months to get.

I got admission with The University of Manitoba to resume for Fall 2021 but had to defer to Fall 2022 due to the delays I experienced and the school only has resumption set for Fall.

Application submitted: August 6th
Biometrics completed: August 8th
Medical request: October 7th
Eligibility: I’m not sure when this started cos I wasn’t checking my portal always but I think it was the same day medicals dropped
Medicals done: October 20th
Medicals Passed: October 26th
BVL and PPR: November 3rd.

To be honest I never expected to get an approval because my application was not up to the standard of everyone I saw here especially with finances. I saw so many huge numbers here which was discouraging but God had his way. Infact at a point I was just waiting for a refusal so I went about my normal life without checking my portal. Not until I got medical request. So just like the other gurus here have said, no 2 applications are the same.

I would like to give a special thanks to @lekibooe. He reviewed my SOP and he helped me restructured it including providing me with tips. Infact he was very responsive when I asked for his help.

I am also grateful to everyone here. This group was my major source for information on how to submit a proper application with all the useful guidelines. I did all my self without the help of any agent.

I hope and pray that everyone expecting PPR will receive soonest.

Congratulations dear

Hello everyone !! Please how long does it take on average to get your passport after IRCC requests it ?
Also, is there a preferred way to address the package when the passport is being sent to the VAC via courier ??
Thank you!!

Share your timeline sis or bro. It helps and encourages others.
You needed help in booking medical and made enquiries. You got your good news and didn't share. Back again with enquiry to submit passport without sharing?
Please share your timeline so others can be encouraged.

Hello Mindful,
Thanks alot.

I only submitted the quarterly SOA for my pension which had about 10M, then did the calculation for the 25% and stated that i would be entitled to it 4 months after I have left work and that 25% is the only part I added to my POF total. Hope you get what I mean...



It is relieving to see that 25% RSA balance is being accepted as POF. I also used it in my application but I have been doubtful about it because of the clause in the reference letter on the accessibility of the 25%. However, I have seen a couple of persons approved even with the reference letter and by God’s grace, mine will be approved also.

God is good and kind, i am filled with so much joy.
Documents Submitted:
IELTS (General)
MyBankstatement (POF)
Pension statement
Reference letter from my pension manager

Please note that I did not make any deposit or pay tuition as my school did not ask me to at the time of my application.

Very much thanks to Mr. Frankrobbn1 of fandrglobal.com who handled my second application. I was refused on financial and personal assets ground for my 1st application. He repackaged my application and God made it happen.

Congratulations Aranmony.

Did you use your pension as POF or as home tie or as both POF and home tie?
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by viviangogos(f): 9:48am On Nov 04, 2021
You will be fine. POF is funds that can be readily available, they have seen that 25% clause over and over again and know it is real. As long as there are other funds you have presented that can take care of the person before the 4 months to get this one from pension, hence it should not pose any issues at all.

All the best with yours, we will rejoice with you soon.

@Fleshofmankind1, when you tracked your parcel through the Ups tracking code; did it shows that it has been delivered? If yes, VFS will surely reciprocate the recipient of your parcel via an email but if not yet deliver keep tracing your parcel through UPs.

ADDRESSING REFUSAL GROUND:

The generic reason was Purpose of visit.

The GCMS note buttressed it:

1) Applicant has a higher degree than proposed study in Canada.
2) Proposed study in Canada does not relate to Career and previous study.

Note my proposed study is PGC in Project Management.

I did a detailed LOE to address the note.

For 1) I have a Bsc in Geology and going for PGC hence my proposed study is definitely higher. That was an error on their part. I submitted my Wes evaluation report which I did for EE just to show what my current level of degree is.

2) I studied Geology and I am a Well completions Engr. I explained how my course of study was a pre requisite to gain employment as a trainee engineer in my firm. worked for some years and transitioned from core technical roles to business development and management of projects in my department. I extensively explained why I needed the study to progress further in my career since I already have on the job trainings in my career, hence imperative to back up my skills with the right certifications. I provided my promotion letters to buttress that and also submitted a confirmation of employment letter from my organization (on company letter head paper signed by the HR) that outlined all my job roles from joining the company at my different designations, this letter also showed my annual salary.

Then I backed it up with fervent prayers, fasting, seed sowing, kingdom evangelism, midnight prayers and praises to God. My major bible verses were Obadiah 1: 17, Mark 11:23, Zechariah 4: 7.
That is pretty much the little I did and God did the greatest and perfected this imperfect application to success.

Note:
After the refusal on the 17th of June, my spouse and I decided to go ahead and activate our plan B which is the UK. I immediately started my application for Msc Project management. I got admissions and decided to go with one of the schools, paid the tuition deposit, family went for TB test and it was on the day I was picking up my TB test certificates that I received my GCMS notes. I immediately told my husband that I will have to re-apply to Canada since the VO concerns did not hold water and maybe they did not review the employment documents I submitted. It was not easy to convince him but ....

Do not give up on this journey. The wait can be daunting but you have to be steadfast. While preparing for application submission, it’s important to plan the POF part right in time, (it is a major refusal grounds), read / research as much as possible.

Thanks to everyone that is contributing to our numerous questions here. I must say I learnt so much from this platform and that was a major boost for my DIY. If you can do it yourself, please go for it but if you do not have the confidence or maybe do not have all the time, please use a licensed agent and possibly a guru in this field.
I wish everyone all the best on this journey. God will perfect it for everyone awaiting PPR in Jesus name, Amen.

You are next in line for this awesome testimony.

Unto the next!!!
