I need help!! I have someone in Paris (Charles de Gaulle airport) and he is being told that his student visa cannot be found online so they cannot let him board.
He has his visa and arrivecan receipt and I have just checked his status on the IRCC portal: the visa has not been revoked.
Did anyone have this issue when arriving

Thank you for your input. I will certainly come back when I receive my GCMS notes.

The bolded is an issue. As an applicant with at least a year experience, you are expected have your own bank statement included in your application which should house at least your living expense of $10,000 while your sponsor's bank statement can have your tuition or more in his/her account.

Every other item yu pointed out seems good and accurate therefore please do the same in your reapplication.

Yes, you can reapply once the gcms note is out as it will help you greatly in addressing the visa officer's refusal concerns and your reapplication. You can reapply alone while your family stands in as your hometies.

This is not entirely true, I used my husband’s account and included my payslip, I had nothing in my salary account as I had stopped working then.

So the best thing is gcms note to know why.

Wow! God bless you, I found “ HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT (OPTIONAL CO-OP)” , it’s a graduate certificate program, screenshot of its requirement is attached

You are good to go. Mind you, upon issuance of admission, tge school charges 1500cad s tuition deposit but it is refundable in the event your visa is denied.

Check the portal, does the visa portal say visa approved? If yes, tell him to show that portal to the officer over there.

True but I have someone I assisted to apply for his gcms note. When the notes dropped, the vo acknowledged his sponsor(father) but complained the applicant didnt include his. The vo went on to wonder how does the applicant tend to cater for his living expenses when all the money in piled up in the father's account far away in Nigeria.

I would say it worked for you doesnt mean it will work for another.

The gcms note will say better shaa

Please I tried reaching IOM. center in Abuja to book upfront medicals but their customer care number is not going through and their website isn't going can someone help me with their official website to book upfront medical or how to contact the one in Abuja. I don't stay in Abuja though. I've tried calling all their numbers since last week.

You book online at either IOM abuja or Ikeja(lagos) or Qlife family clinic in VI (Lagos)

Hello everyone, please I need your opinions and possible solutions on this.
Early 2020 my uncle introduced my parents to a Canada travel agent who collected 300k to help me do student visa. He only took my passport details and family details, and didn't ask for any of my documents
I did biometrics few weeks after he started and for good 10 months he didn't give me any feedback but just kept saying they haven't sent a response due to covid 19
I got tired of waiting around then reached out to someone who advised me to send an email to Canada embassy and explain everything cos I do actually have my application number
I did send the email and two days after I received a response with a letter attached in it, they've refused my student visa since April 2020 which was barely a month after I did biometrics and this bastard agent kept me in the dark, that was when I knew he had finessed me (it was a generic refusal by the way). It was a whole lotta drama after that which is not even pertinent to why I'm here.
Fast forward, I asked the agent to give me the whole details he used for my application, he printed it out for me and I went through everything, could you believe this bastard agent filled Lautech for me in my educational background meanwhile I didn't go to lautech but finished from another university. He probably used fake docs to secure admission for me, i dont even know.
Now if I wanna apply again, I dont know how to go about it because they already have that information the agent put down which is wrong
PS: I have my gcms notes

Thank you.

If I were you, that agent will spend the full month in a mosquito infested prison and I will be there to watch.

Nothing spoil. All you need do is take command of your application, apply with your actual academic docs. Come visa time, you will need to do a lot of explaining especially in the lautech the agent used for you previously. You can attach the mail you sent to them explaining your situation whixh prompted them to reply your mail.

But I learnt that IELTS is an important requirement, especially when one does want to apply for a permanent residence in Canada.

Please how true is this claim?

PR is different from SP. for study permit, IELTS isn't compulsory and schools from an English speaking nations and with English as language of instruction in their schools usually have IELTS waiver when applying for schools in Canada. But for PR, you need IELTS.

Regularly, IRCC do inquire from schools if you're still pursuing the degree or have you absconded. If the later is the case, your SP will be revoked
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 20 by makano: 10:06am On Dec 24, 2021
Hello Holarjoseph

I do not know about them having access to the student portal, but I am sure IRCC contacts schools to know the status of the students in question..

They do this regularly..

Hello Teejay

IELTS is compulsory for Permanent residency..

A study permit is a temporary residence visa, so IELTS is not a requirement for Study permit Visa Applciation..

This would depend on the nature of the enquiry of the CBSA officer;

* At the Point of Entry - The CBSA officer already has details of the incoming immigrant ( e.g international student) displayed on thier screen as they asked the students those random questions before printing out study permit. They can always request to see the enrollment letter from the student if they want to confirm if the person is actually a registered student. The decision to log into a student portal is rare exept they have some doubts and want to probe further.

* Compliance Reporting - The designated learning Institutions do report details of thier enrolled international student like twice in a year to IRCC which is another way the immigration authorities do track genuinue students.

I hope this adddress your question.

You can do it before submitting, once done, you’d be given a medical slip that you can upload as well.
