Hi guys,

based on your experience, on average, how long does it take to move forward from the "We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information." status?

Also, which one comes first, medical or background check, cos my spouse's dashboard says "You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes." Could it be because we have applied from the U.K?

They will definitely ask for medicals. Just chill and give time nd be prayerful while waiting. They will soon request for medicals nd it will change from “you do not need a medical exam” to “we have requested for a medical exam check your message”
All d best

Depends, Abuja sends it back within three days to a week

harkintem:

Good morning all, please the school I apply to is requesting for my official transcript before processing my application, I used my master's degree as highest qualification, my question is can I send only the master's degree transcript to them because sendiing both first and second degree official transcript costs alot.

Obiyochibudom:

Okay thanks can I mail you I wanna ask some questions please

Ok no problem

Good morning everyone, pls I have few questions here; school has replied my mail concerning my deferment from may to September but my course is not available for September again till January 2024🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️. If I decide to option for January 2024, can I travel with may 2023 acceptance letter to show them at the point of entry if my visa is granted before may.
2. If I option for another course for September 2023, do I need to show send another SOP and POF to RICC or I should just hold on till visa is approved before presenting the new program to RICC.

Pls help a sister o I am just confused 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

joefit4gur:


The calculations are right. The amount of POF available is even more than required. I have a two deductions pending till I receive my GCMS notes:

1. That the POF must be available in the account for 3-4 months. (That is, just stacking your account to the full amount required for POF and then applying immediately = Red flag). So maybe wait 2/3/4 months with POF in account then applying.

2. That if you intend to fund your studies solely from crypto liquidated funds, you still need to corroborate with a legal business running in Nigeria. Show payslips and employment history and if self employed, show evidences of your interaction with clients, receipts etc.

Maybe the experts can review.

It’s deffo not option 1, and most likely option 2.
Because for option 1, that’s not what I did. Infact, what I noticed about IRCC from my personal experience is, they are more interested in the source of the Money rather than the actual Money.

I see you talking about Crypto-, they don’t know that.
- and If I be honest yeah, speaking of crypto- where did you get the Money to trade the crypto? This is also an important question you must answer, abi them Dey start crypto with zero naira?

For VO eyes eh, this guy na cyber criminal (Yahoo guy)....

Blunt truth.

But whatever you’re doing in a reapplication, you must be very careful, these guys have privileged information which would not reflect in your GCMS notes, the new VO reviewing your files would want consistency with the old application, at least to a certain degree, you must be careful when providing new information.

Selah!

Good evening house.
I am about to apply for study visa to Canada. I have all my docs ready including my SOP.
Now my elder sister staying in Canada is acting as a sponsor for me and she is to cover my tuition 100% only while my statement of account shud cover my living expenses and other miscellaneous.
I am also married. Now I contacted an agent and he is telling me my application will not fly as he saw some red flag which includes the fact that I am married and a business owner so I am expected to sponsor myself 100%. That if my sister is acting as a co sponsor, my application will be rejected for insufficient Funds.

Can anyone throw more light to this from previous experience. I will appreciate.

First of all, change the term “acting”...

No be film them Dey act for IRCC. Lol

Good morning people..

Pls I need an assistance on what to do right now.
I was refused visa on the ground of the following according to VO;

I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay. I am refusing ur application because you have not established that you will leave Canada , based on the following factors;

1. Your assets and financial situation are insufficient to support the stated purpose of travel for yourself (and any accompanying family members), if applicable)

2. I am not satisfied that you have sufficient and available financial resources without working in Canada, to pay the tuition fees for the course or program of studies that you intent to pursue.

3. I am not satisfied that you have sufficient and available resources , without working in Canada, to maintain yourself and any family members who are accompanying you during your proposed period.

I am going for Masters of Management in University of Windsor, and my tuition fee is 43,000cad in total. I showed N8,351,000 in my uncle'S bank statement, N6,000,000 in my cousin's bank statement and N3,000,000 in my bank statement because they are my sponsors though I am married. Meanwhile, I have already paid 4,000cad for tuition deposit.

So, now my family members are contributing money for my studies which according to my sister, they planned giving me N10,000,000 and my that my uncle that was my sponsor want to transfer the N8,315,000 to my account while he will do a gift deed to that effect. So now concerning my family's contribution, how best am I supposed to show the funds, should they deposit it individually into my account or is it better one of them gather it in his/her account and send it my own account?

A quick one, how many years is your program?

And the 43k for tuition is per year?

Frankielilbaby:

Has your passport been stamped? I received mine the same day my passport was delivered back to me so if yes maybe you should send a webform

Yes, my passport has been stamped and I have received my LOI

Legitmenaija:


What is counterfoil?

It’s a document given after you passport has been stamped

Hello house,
Please I need the gurus to advice me on this PLEASE 🙏🏾, I’m a self sponsor and I have my full tuition fee to pay however my elder sister transferred 4.8million to my account which I want to use as POF for living expenses and miscellaneous. Now she wants to do gift deed to back up the money. As a self sponsor I’m thinking she should do gift deed of 2million while I explain in my SOP I own the remaining 2.8million as well as it was part of the money had saved and with her over the years. What’s your best advise on it, should she we go ahead with gift deed of 4.8million since that was what was transferred or she should do the 2million.

Note she works in a bank and I also have a job. She’s married with 2 kids. So please what is the best advice you can give me on this. Thanks.

Also, which one comes first, medical or background check, cos my spouse's dashboard says "You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes." Could it be because we have applied from the U.K?

Please, I need an answer to this, please.

There is a gap in how you are raising the funds, it will better the new funds are gathered in account then the person sends to you as gift. That aside, you also have to state the sources of income of your sponsors. Then request for your CBSA notes too

nnamdi346:


Please, I need an answer to this, please.

IRCC has developed their system such that no one can predict their ways, so there is no specific time allotted for a particular stage, they could all be working in the background. I think since you are in the UK they might not request for medicals but just be prepared in case they ask.

Of course you can send the master degree transcript.

I think it will be better to do the N4.8m, and back it up with gift deed and further explain your relationship with her with documents to back it up.

Christyiji:

Yes

Again, a friend advised I should look for another cheaper school as he feels the tuition is on the high side. Would it not affect my application as I feel the VO might doubt my intentions of traveling to Canada.

Bobomaigida:

Thanks for your opinion, my sister isn’t my father and she has her own kids, why would she want to gift me 4.8million naira when she also have her kids to cater for. That’s the angle I’m looking at. Wouldn’t the VO think I might not be accessible to the money, if it was my dad that transferred the money to me i would have just done gift deed for my dad on the whole money automatically.
