I prayed for grace and He answered me..
I resigned from my bank job in June 2021 after the scam with high hopes, got fired from my other remote jobs by August, Got depressed and couldn't travel home that year.
But my guy came through for me, inspired me that the hustle just started and introduced me to church(Dominion City), I became focused on God, got some of my remote jobs back, got my self confidence back, married in March, apply study permit April, Go honey moon for Dubai May, PPR June.

This is my testimony!!!

Lemme tell you a straight fact... There's nothing like looking at this thing in another angle. No matter how long someone has been on this thread, it's certain that the person joined one day. So imagine when him/her Joined, and started asking questions, no one answered, please tell me, will the person still be here? Absolutely not!
They may end up paying agents huge amount of money, because this platform is the only reliable DIY you can ever see. Even agents always hang around for information/knowledge.

This platform has been in existence for over a decade (based on the other threads I've checked out). And it continues to be because many people keep giving information based on new developments. If it was to stopped in thread 10 or 11, we will only be available with outdated information... Providing timelines keep this thread going with latest updates and informations.

If I asked a question here and I get answers within few hours or a day, then I'm expected to also provide my timeline within few hours or a day after my PPR. Anything outside that shows I'm pathetically ungrateful, and this applies to anyone who is on this thread.

So guys, here is my timeline.

This journey started in 2020 when I applied to University of New Brunswick, but I wasn't admitted. I wasn't really serious about it then because business was going on fine, that's why I applied to UNB alone.

Around April 2021, when dollar issues hit our business so hard, I lost a lot of money and it started to look like the journey will never be possible again. I discuss with my siblings and we knew it's time to make move and leave this country, because exchange rate means a lot in our Importation business. I decided to prioritize this Canada journey and started making a lot of research and reading on nairaland.

First of all, I decided to apply to schools supported by Mpower, because 7 figures monthly income has dropped by almost 60%. I contacted many potential supervisors and one from University of Victoria fixed a date for interview. She accepted to be my supervisor and I applied around October 2021. I also applied to University of Manitoba. By February 2022, when I didn't hear from Uvic and Manitoba I quickly applied to Fanshawe, Conestoga and NSCC.

March 2022, admissions started rolling in:
University of Victoria - Accepted
University of Manitoba - Rejected
Fanshawe College - Accepted
Conestoga College - Accepted
NSCC - Accepted

I opted for University of Victoria because I have a supervisor, no tuition deposit required and it is a Master's Program. I didn't submit my visa application for about 2 months because I was waiting for funding letter. During this period, I started gathering documents and writing my SOP. When everything was set I contacted Makano to review my SOP. He gave me a thumbs up, but emphasize on writing it as formal letter and did some editing, removing the sub-headings, turning it into paragraphs. I respect him so much for being calm. He sent voice notes to me to explain why he did some things and assured me it's the best. "I have been doing it like that and I've been getting positive results with my clients". That was actually his words. Thank you Makano, I respect you Bro

Hello Abby12,

Ironically all applicants including me when applying to go alone without family always fill that spouse isn't accompanying in the IMM form. But then, I leveraged on the fact that;

1). Is approaching a year since I got my Study visa and one of the reasons I stated that why I haven't gone is I have never stayed away from my spouse for more than a month and would love her to atleast accompany me to settle then return back to Nigeria.

Note: even though it was an open work permit, I didn't mention about work. It was all about accompanying me to settle, the need to accompany me while I settle. When I mentioned companies where she can work, I didn't per say mentioned it like she is going to work there to earn pay, I aligned it to her gaining research experience (she is currently doing her PhD research) from the renowned companies based in province we are going to and also to use the knowledge gained from the companies to develop our family biz back home when she returns. Then God's grace did the rest.

So every application is unique. So let's learn use the uniqueness of our situations to our advantages.

That's my little advice.
