Just watched this and i must say that its different from the house hunting clips i have watched before.

The back and forth, calls, emails is crazy.

She must have enough money to have rented an unfurnished apartment o. the apartments she viewed all looked really new and fine sha.

Thanks for the clip

koreanlord:
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?

Please with regards to upfront medicals, I did mine few days ago and I'm a bit confused, the sheet to upload is it the one the medical personnels told me it would take two to five days to upload and they will also send a copy to my email or is it the sheet that was given to me after the medicals registration before I proceeded to carry out the medical assessment?

johnstan:


IOM will give you a print out titled e-medical sheet with your assessment details on it, that's the one to upload.

Your assessment result will be sent to IRCC directly within 5 working days and may not be sent to your email except you request for it. That's not the one to upload

kennyjoy:


We've talked about it several times here! It is not illegal or offensive to arrive before your start date, but you must have a genuine reason if questioned by a CBSA officer about why you arrived so early.

Another factor is your living expenses. Let me tell you something, once you cross the border into Canada, bills await you, REMEMBER you will start spending $ not naira again ooo, and you can't start working until your school resumes. So one month before resumption is still ideal, and you can settle in within that time frame. If you have huge POF & living expenses (money), well, that’s won’t be a problem.

I just relaxed since, didn't know that's the one to upload. I think it's preferable to upload it within the week days, what do you think?

Could you please share the email format you forwarded to IRCC requesting your application status. This will be really helpful because my application has passed the processing time. I have tried sending emails but I keep getting generic response.

This was a response I got after sending webform.

johnstan:


You can upload any time, but weekdays and targeting when it will be 8am in Nairobi will be best so your mail/webform will be seen timely.

Don't forget to send it at least 3 times and not once. Don't give room for *we did not see it*.

HopefulSuccess:

Oh thanks for you response, I thought post secondary school is mainly for younger age students. Thanks for clarifying…. I studied business and been working as a business development manager.

Please if you send anything through webform, say new letter of admission or update financial documents, will it reflect on your portal for you to know they have seen it?

Pace6:


I think you can also upload that one too when sent to your email.

johnstan:


No na, the things that reflect on your portal for you to see are your medicals, biometrics, eligibility review etc you know that timeline of different stages.
Letter of admission and financial docs don't reflect on your portal. They might reply you to let you know that they have received them or they will not that's why you don't forward a document once.

johnstan:


Probably, The instruction after the test is usually to forward the e-medical sheet but there's no harm in sending the patients copy of the results sha.

johnstan:


You can't send mails to IRCC with just any random email, it has to be with your registered email on your application.
Webform will also ask you to input your registered email in one of the columns before you submit, you cannot just input any email.

Bro, I don't think so, I have a friend who is Canada since May 2022 and he is for September 2022 intake. The only issue is that the immigration officer might ask why you're coming early. Also, they might want to ask a few questions, but most times they don't ask. I plan to enter early too.

One thing we need to know is this, Canadian govt needs our money - my guy said he heard that they call international students cashing cows

I have also asked some experienced travel agents such as wakadoctor and co, and they said you can enter anytime you want so far you have your visa. Visa is key and also your money (that's one reason the immigration officer will be particular about)

my advice for anyone who has their visa ahead of resumption is to try and pay for another semester now. But note that, you can't work without your school enrolment letter.

If my statement sounds rude or offensive, please pardon my manner because tomorrow is Sunday.
