thanks for your response, she is my sibling, so by virtue of birth certificate , that is how i established our relationship. She owns a beauty salon and regsitered one under CAC. she finished sec sch in 2012 and ond in 2017. ever since then she has been into beauty care services and salon though she does no have a bank account for the business she uses her savings account for the business, she is married and she has a child with her husband though her account does not really have large flows like that until i give her 10,000 cad dollars for part payment for tution fees and 3m for gift deed.Her program is 4 years program, i have a turn over of 80m with with account balance of 22m. The school is located in toronto. she did ond in banking and finance and she applied for 4 years business administration course. Regarding the sop na one girl write for her. I do support her most of the times u know brother sister kind of assiatnce

I prove my source of income with some business invoice, cac certificate, tax clearance certificate, landed properties, anti money Laundary certificates, business registration certificate, bank statements, certificate of lagos state real estate regulation Authority, all these documents have used to get visas into Britain,Ireland and Schenghen countries. So what else can i do for her, just want help her , how can we tweak this application, can we just wait for next admission round or whats the best thing to do, does the denial has anything to do with my supporting documents or what, advise is welcom




Certainly that your closing balance doesn't cover the 4 years. But I don't know how they did the sop to assure you are capable to continue to fund the rest of the program. Can I see the sop.
Also will need to see how the sop linked her business with the business administration.

Thanks sir. But you said I shouldn't apply for BSC when I already have hnd. Please why do you say so. Is that two years course not same as diploma I have here in Nigeria?. What will the result not bear diploma after graduation?. Thanks.

Wow 😲😲😲 , really?. I am hearing it for the first time here that the proof of fund should cover all the whole tution fees you need for those years you will stay there. I was thinking 🤔🤔 initially, that one year tution fee is good to go


Then how possible is it to apply for two years course and get three year pgwp. Is it realistic to you boss?. Because I am hearing that you if you apply for two years, they will issue you one year

I am certain that you would need the 2 years proof of funds initially it wasn’t so.. Also, I am very sure you’d get post study work permit of 3 years (if not more, depending on some factors. Can’t explain much here as the news came out recently and I’m yet to digest it now. )

Success rate is not tied to whether you choose PGC or master's degree. Your situation which is dependent on many factors determines your success rate.

Some of these factors are:
1. Home Ties.
2. Purpose of Study.
3. Financial Sufficiency.
4. Academic/Career Progression.
5. Accuracy on presentation etc.

Thank you very much, I really appreciate the effort you put into replying this .please would you say MSC is better than PGC ?

Thank you for your response.
The school is Canadore college
Acceptance fees =2,400
Initial deposit =6,100
Scholarship of 2,500 but to be given in second semester
I still bear the same surname wit my brother

Please what documents do we need to show his source of income, since his business is not registered?

17m should be enough for your POF. You may not even need a co sponsor anymore. Please send a message to me let me calculate for you. (Dont worry it is free lol)

Hello house, pls how long does it take to receive a refund from flywire? I got a mail from them that they've received the fund from my school on June 30th. It's up to two weeks now, no update from them.

Send a message to them and do not stop. Keep sending reminders. Those people go nuts sometimes.
But rest assured they would send to you, but only to the originating account.
Good luck.

No, I applied for visitor visa since 2021 and I just collected my passport after visa stamping on 30th June. But I have applied for school before my visitor visa was approved.



Okay I thought having visit visa nd never use it to travel will limit chances of getting other visas

What is your yardstick for comparison?

Academically, MSc is higher and better than PGCert.

When it comes to post graduate study within a short period of time, some PGCerts take a shorter time to complete and can quickly launch you into labour force.

Check your POF against the duration of each program. Also, compare the cost. You will be able to choose between the two.

Good morning

Please I want to start my proof of funds against January, like how much should I use as open balance that will not look small or too big

Calculate your tuition and multiply it by the duration
Calculate your living expenses and do likewise.
Subtract Your tuition deposit
Add an extra 5000 CAD for cost of transportation (flight) and miscellaneous
There, you have your POF

Not to scare you but If you don’t answer them within that period, it may lead to a VISA ban.

Nice job Zubizareta, you have been helpful to people on this platform and I pray that God almighty will be your helper too.

Please I have some questions to ask for a friend of mine.

She gotten her visitor visa last month and before her visa came out she has applied for study permit, the problem now is that she as gotten a medical request and she’s in the middle of backoff from study permit due to financial reason.

She as paid tuition deposit to conestoga $1500, how can she retrieve the funds ?

She was suggesting that maybe she should denied the medical so the VO can refuse her and use the refusal letter for refund?

What if she did the medical and IRCC request for her passport for visa stamp, and she gotten the study permit can she use her visitor visa to travel later while she was having study permit on the same int passport?

I noticed you gotten your visitor visa and study permit?

Have you travel for your study? If Yes does your visitor visa was canceled ?

Or the two visa i.e (Visitor and study permit) can be used in the same int passport or the boarder officer will cancel one?


Thanks

Dear xxxxxxxx

Thank you for your interest in studying in Canada. I have reviewed your study permit application
and supporting documentation to assess whether you meet the requirements for a study permit
(https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/study-permit/
eligibility.html). This includes assessing whether you are coming to Canada temporarily for the
reason(s) you describe in your application. I have determined that your application does not meet
the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) (https://lawslois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/I-2.5/index.html) and Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations
(IRPR) (https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/sor-2002-227/index.html). I am refusing
your application.

• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as required by
paragraph R216(1)(b) of the IRPR (https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/sor-2002-227/
section-216.html). I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will
leave Canada, based on the following factors:
• Your assets and financial situation are insufficient to support the stated purpose of travel
for yourself (and any accompanying family member(s), if applicable).
• The purpose of your visit to Canada is not consistent with a temporary stay given the
details you have provided in your application.

Sorry for the refusal, why not request for the GCMS notes to know exactly what caused the refusal? Any response to your request now will be like trying to read tea leaves. Once you have your GCMS notes you can come back and share for the house to advise you.

What possibly will she be using the N877,000 she wants to get back from the college for? She almost at the verge of success and she wants to withdraw? Let her get her SP and look for loan to help her through school if she is facing financial difficulties.
She is presently more disposed to the VV, but what can she do with it, except she wants to go and start cheating the system over there.

My opinion
1. I think you didn't establish the relationship accordingly since she is married (different surnames), this led to the insufficient funds. Address this issue by setting out a different account in your name and do a court affidavit as the sponsor, don't forget to add her birth certificate as proof of relationship. note, don't withdraw from the account, and ensure it can pay at least 80% of her tuition for the duration.
2. I think the sop didn't do justice to the study gap since 2017 followed by different discipline. Address this by clear presentation in your sop
3. family ties issue. let her sop be more explicit why she needs to return to Nigeria after her program.
Good luck

They can't cancel one because the visas are independent. Mind you, for the study visa, you told them you plan to leave immediately after your study so why would they cancel your multiple entry visit visa.

I haven't traveled yet but I think you might have issue at POE if you want to enter with a visit visa when your school has resumed and in session. Your motive will be questioned.
When does your friend resume? Let's say she is due to resume January 2024, and she decides to enter anytime this year with her visit visa then it's logical and she shouldn't have issue at POE as long as she answers all questions pertaining to her purpose of visit. My own logical reasoning

She can defer now to get a new LOA and send to IRCC, however, most schools do not defer if you have not paid first semester fees, so let her find out what the deferral policy of the school is.

Depends on what you are referring to school deposit. Once offered admission, any school will require you deposit an initial amount to show commitment that you have accepted the admission and secured your seat for that program. Atleast as little as 500cad. However, some school end there and will not require for any other deposit till your visa is approved, while some will set a further deadline to make further deposit that could be as high as a semester tuition regardless of your visa been approved or not

I will advice you make a very detailed letter of explanation. include the initial application you submitted for the admission including the receipt for the application fee you paid. include relevant correspondence you had with the school. Attaching prior post secondary education credential you have wont hurt as well.
NB: dont assume they will simply call the school to reverify. you have to give them enough reason to even want to go the extra step to verify your renewed LOA

kind of hard to agree with what you have put down here. For a masters program, you will need a 4 year degree cert. Nigerian HND is a two year program. so where will you get the remaining credit to make it a 4 year program. For a Masters program in Canada, HND is assessed independent of OND, not with OND. For each school, go to the country specific requirements and no where is HND listed as a qualifying cert. for applicants from Nigeria Dont confuse Nigeria's HND with those from other countries. In the eyes of Oyibo, Nigerian HND is treated as a two year post sec. certificate.


ShowYoung:


That is what you think, but I am telling you what I know and am sure of.

Reasons and Proofs

1. HND is assessed to be equivalent to PostGrad. Cert. by WES Canada.

2. If PostGrad. Cert is higher than Bachelor Degree, then HND is higher than Bachelor Degree.

3. Recently, an HND holder got admission to a PhD-- Doctoral Degree-- program in a US university direct without having a Bachelor's or Master's Degree.

4. In Express Entry, HND gets 22 points, Bachelor Degree gets 20 points.

5. You should also note that Nigerian HND is higher than and different from the UK HND based on course load and credit units.

6. I can mention at least 10 UK universities accepting HND direct to master's degree programs. Also, I can mention at least 5 US universities accepting HND direct to master's degree programs.

7. You may want to ask for more evidence if the ones above are not satisfactory enough.
