Same here I’d love to defer from may 2023 to September intake due to financial reasons, but i think you should apply again when you’re ready since you’ve not paid the 2,650 tuition deposit, let’s wait for the gurus to respond.
I have paid the Deposit and I even have the Letter of Acceptance...

i deferred my admission to centennial from september 22 to january 23 recently. seems like they only attend to deferral when its closer to resumption date. they attended to my request ending of august. they also didn't ask for a reason however my deposit had been payed already.


Thanks for the response bro..... Did you pay the full tuition for the first semester before your request to defer was granted?

How did you apply? via Email right?

Hello, please I need some advise. I have ppr but I applied from a different country. I actually have to be in Nigeria in some weeks. I am scared of submitting my passport here and not getting my passport when I plan to travel to Nigeria. I want to confirm if I can submit my passport in Nigeria for stamping. Please, thank you.

[quote author=Smarthill18 post=118471209]It's PPR for my brother. I'm so happy.

Second time applicant; Conestoga College
1st application was done through an agent. He Got a rejection due to financial reasons. We ordered his GCSMS and the Visa officer claimed he didn't have enough proof of relationship with his sponsor (Sister). Hence, he wasn't sure he will be able to afford it financially.
He had to defer his admission to January 2023 and re-applied again. All thanks to @scott99tish for his advice.

Second application: Self

Application submission : 27th August

Upfront Medical passed : 26th September

Eligibility: Ghost update. Didn't know when it was updated.

Original passport collection: 17th November

What we did different to address the visa officers concerns (proof of relationship with sponsor);

I opened a canadian GIC account and Submitted the GIC certificate

I Wrote a strong SOP and LOE explaining that sponsor is my blood sister

- Sponsors notorized Affidavit of sponsorship
Sponsors birth certificate, old pictures, old/dated whatsapp messages
Notarized Affidavit of relationship
Recent family pictures
Letter of sponsorship from sponsor
Family tree
Sponsors marriage and change of name certificate/Affidavit
Bank statements
Sponsors Assets



PLEASE HELP OUT
I WAS REFUSED THIS MORNING.
GURUS PLEASE HELP ME OUT.
PLEASEEEEEEEE

Once again, its PPRRRRR - Loooooonnnnggggg post alert!!

First off, I’d like to thank God and many members of this platform for helping and keeping things running on here.

My profile in summary: 25y/o single male, parent sponsored, Computer Engineering BSc, graduated with second class upper, going for MSc, Computational Sciences. Graduated in 2020, worked as a Software Engineer ever since then.

Timeline and Events
New Portal
First-time applicant
Applied by myself. Learnt all from Google, Youtube, and Nairaland

July 4: Upfront medicals
July 8: Application on New Portal
July 8: Biometrics Request
July 13: Gave biometrics and received on portal
** Somewhere in between I’d uploaded my medical sheet from IOM via webform. Can’t remember when.
August 4 (2AM): Sent mail to Lagos, Nairobi, London and attached my medical sheet.
August 4 (Around 1pm): Biometrics and Medicals updated to pass.
** Long wait, ordered notes, CBSA and GCMS, nothing tangible.
October 11: Sent mail to MP
October 13: MP got back literally saying the same thing on portal.
** Around this period, started firing several versions of mails and webforms.
Nov 16: MP reached out to them again – Preassessment done, eligibility not started.
Nov 17 (Around midnight): Sent mails to Beijing, London, Lagos, Abuja, Nairobi.
Nov 17 (Around 12pm): Eligibility review started on portal
Nov 17 (Around 9pm): BVL and PPR

Little story, for POF which is usually a concern, I had like 5.5M in my account, $2k USD in dorm account. 5M was gift deed from my Dad, he had 25M in fixed deposit since July 2021. As at the time I applied, the money was fixed. There were several opinions about this, but I kept it that way even though I was scared sh*tless. The closing balance of that account was 77k in fact.

Around November 9 ish, I sent updated statement showing liquidated funds and my Dad transferred the balance of like 8M to me since I’d enrolled in courses. My savings in Naira and USD had grown, I also got salary raise at work so I packaged all these and sent severally via webforms – both old and new. Oh yeah, I’ve ordered like 3 notes and I still have 4 pending lol.

I’m adding all of these because I’m not sure what did the trick. It’s pretty much a combination of all.

I was offered a Post Secondary School Program/Diploma with a Canadian College in Ontario. Do you think I have a higher chance of getting a visa due to my age and the program? I am 36 and I’m going to study for post secondary program. What are my chances of getting a visa? Is there age limit for this program?
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 22 by Teeebabyyy: 12:21pm On Nov 18, 2022
Here's my timeline;
Undergraduate Application.
Application submitted: September 6th 2022
Biometrics updated: September 6th 2022(Already done for a visitor's visa application)
Upfront medicals: 13th September 2022
Sent series of webforms and emails with my e-medical slip attached.
Medicals updated to pass: 7th October
Ircc ghosted me, no updates, no replies, nothing
Contacted an MP from my province and she contacted an IRCC rep on my behalf. They gave her update on my application on 2nd of November; criminality and eligibility passed but it wasn't updated on my portal.

I kept sending emails and webforms but IRCC said "aired"
Eligibility review started: 17th November 2022
PPR: 18th November 2022

All I can say is God did it!

Someone here got approved and was 45yrs.

You only need to package a strong application that's all. Ensure that your course is somewhat related to your previous degree or working experience to stand a better chance.
Not saying that career switch is not possible.

Breaking News!!!

My application was refused this afternoon based on purpose of visit, insufficient funds and asset lol.

I'm going for a year course, tuition is 18,000 Cad out of which 10,000 Cad has been paid remaining 8,000 Cad.

I am self sponsor and going with 2 of my kids

Bank statement of almost 20M provided, pay stubs, employment letter, confirmation and promotion letters, my CAC documents registered 7 years ago, land documents valued at 30M etc.

I appreciate your well wishes and prayers.

I gave this application my best but sadly, it was not enough.

I am about to order for CBSA note to really understand their reasons for refusal.

Thank you all

I wish everyone still expecting PPR good news

Cheers

Oh no... this is devastating. Stay strong 7COLOURS!

I have many questions but I see that you have deactivated your account.

If you're still determined to go to Canada, don't lose hope!

Here's my timeline;
Undergraduate Application.
Application submitted: September 6th 2022
Biometrics updated: September 6th 2022(Already done for a visitor's visa application)
Upfront medicals: 13th September 2022
Sent series of webforms and emails with my e-medical slip attached.
Medicals updated to pass: 7th October
Ircc ghosted me, no updates, no replies, nothing
Contacted an MP from my province and she contacted an IRCC rep on my behalf. They gave her update on my application on 2nd of November; criminality and eligibility passed but it wasn't updated on my portal.

I kept sending emails and webforms but IRCC said "aired"
Eligibility review started: 17th November 2022
PPR: 18th November 2022

All I can say is God did it!

This really is generic, if there's no other statement, order your gcms notes to get the full gist then repackage and refire.
Thank you,
Should I order for GCMS OR CBSA?
