Honeeydrop: I think you can book your ticket, especially modifiable ones and just give an ample time and allowance. Given that you submitted July 21st and have received confirmation that it has been sent to IRCC, any day in September should be okay. Remember flight cost will not freeze for you! 3 Likes |

Themillionman: Good day everyone. I'll like to address this issue and I hope it should end this debate once & for all. I'm making this comment as someone who is not affiliated to Can College in anyway. So don't assume Can College is paying me to defend them. 1. There are numerous if not thousands of DLIs in Canada who do not offer PGWP eligible programs...of which Can College is one of them. If you conduct a thorough research, you will discover that PGWP eligible schools are majorly community/public schools with some select private schools. The Government of Canada have a reason why they did this. This doesn't mean that schools which do not offer PGWP programs are inferior to those who offer PGWP eligible programs. Once a school has obtained it's DLI status, it means the school's facility and manpower has been verified by Canadian authorities and as such you cannot say such a school is a scam. This is just like saying a University approved by NUC in Nigeria is a scam. Whether the University is a Federal University, State or Private University...so long as the regulatory body which is NUC has approved it, such a school is 100% genuine. 2. PGWP is not a job offer neither is it automatic route to getting Permanent Residency. PGWP is just a work permit just like a study permit which allows an international student who has completed his/her studies in Canada, to remain in the country (ie: maintain a legal status) and search for jobs / work. If you are enrolled in a school which does not offer PGWP eligible programs and you get a job before you graduate, you can comfortably apply for your work permit (closed work permit) and remain in Canada. If after your studies you don't yet have a full time job, you can apply to another school or even in that your same school and extend your study permit and IRCC will approve it. You will continue staying in Canada till you get a full time job offer. You even still have an option of changing DLI when you arrive Canada to a school that offers PGWP eligible programs if you wish. 3. When applying for your Permanent Residency, whether you schooled in a DLI that offered PGWP eligible programs or you didn't, it won't count! I will advise everyone to take their time and carefully study IRCC website and know everything therein. Once you have completed a one year study or more than one year in a DLI (whether PGWP or not), you'll get your score for Canadian education on the CRS. There are international students in Canada, who have stayed more than 5years and have still not gotten their Permanent Residency. Whereas there are some that entered Canada as students and in less than 1yr, got their PR. I know a guy who currently has his PGWP but hasn't yet gotten a job. He is still applying for jobs as at today. I believe the aim of everybody in this forum going to Canada via this study route is hopefully to become Permanent Residents and then get their Citizenship thereafter. I repeat::: Studying in a DLI which offers PGWP eligible programs or studying in one which does not offer PGWP eligible programs HAS NOTHING TO CONTRIBUTE towards acquiring your Permanent Residency through Express Entry. However, some Provinces will insist on PGWP programs if you're applying for Provincial Nominations in their Provinces. But on the general Express Entry Pool, PGWP or no PGWP do not count. Factors such as age, education in your home country, work experience, IELTS, TEF, job offer etc are what will determine your getting your Permanent Residency. 4. Just like in Nigeria, Private colleges in Canada are expected to make money for themselves which they use in running their colleges... however, Government can still send them allocations as a form of support. So therefore, do not blame Can College or any other private college in Canada that you see running social media adverts to get students. It is more like a business for them. If they don't get students, their institutions will likely fold. So therefore they need yearly intakes to be able to conveniently run their colleges. Whether they make their admission process as easy as ABC...or whether they reduce their school fees to become 10,000naira does not mean they are fraudulent. Canadian Government know they are existing, they know everything going on in such private colleges, yet they haven't shut down those schools. Do you think you are wiser than the Canadian Government? 5. People who gain admission in these private colleges which don't offer PGWP programs successfully get their Visas, travel and make it. Whether you're admitted in a PGWP eligible programs or not does not in any way affect your visa application. Once it's a DLI, it's a DLI. Visa success rates rely basically on how to arrange your supporting documents. In summary, what you're not exposed to, don't come out and talk about it like a PRO. There are many routes to achieve one's goals in life. That you achieved yours through a particular way, does not mean that is the only way of achieving that thing. Finally, I haven't heard of a Nigerian school defrauding a student... Talk more of a Canadian school defrauding a student. I know Nigeria as our country with it's high rate of corruption has made us to be so so sensitive that at the slightest chance, we may attribute something to be a scam, when it's actually not. Scams exist in Canada no doubt, but they are perpetrated mostly by individuals not by organizations such as schools. So, I would advise everyone to desist from calling any school in Canada a scam unless you have evidence of them defrauding you. I hope with this little insight this constant fight about PGWP schools and Non-PGWP schools can stop. Thanks. 19 Likes 2 Shares |

Pinkalicious: When did you get the acknowledgement from VFS and what date did you get the notification of dispatch to IRCC Office from VFS Abuja? those are the important details and not exactly when you submitted. Earlier on, i read where someone who submitted on 12th July narrated what he went through to collect his passport. So the more important date is not when you submitted. |

I got the acknowledgement that it was in transit to IRCC on the 27th of July. I get the same message when i track it on vfs website. The prompt i get is my processed passport has been sent to canada visa office on the 27th of July. It will be a week tomorrow since i got a mail from Vfs that my passport is in transit to IRCC. No confirmation that its at IRCC office yet. Accessed: |

Honeeydrop: The story is not any better for those that paid for transmission to Abuja. Infact, it appears worse going by the recent trend, hence, people started advising to go through Lagos. Something seems to be wrong with their logistics really. It might also not be unconnected with the volume of PPRs churned out lately, especially since someone who recently collected said they were almost 400 on the queue for collection on the day he went. Anyways, I still believe that 2 weeks plus or minus 1 week from the date you got notification that your passport has been dispatched to IRCC office will be a safe gamble to base your projection for collection on. Na gamble i call am o! ![]() |

Thanks brother! Points well noted and taken. I believe this will assuage the minds of those currently enrolled in schools such as this that are not eligible for PGWP. Inotherwords, it is not the end of the world for them, moreso, there are clearly ways out of it. However, I am sure you will also agree that potential international students should be advised to rather consider PGWP eligible DLIs rather than these ones. The guy to whom this is referenced has already clarified himself and even gone ahead to apologize for the erroneous fraudulent label he attached to the school. so let's not overflog the issue and just properly guide one another from making the same mistakes others made from ignorance, overzealousness or outright desperation.

Good morning everyone Please I logged into my children's GCkey yesterday and saw a message that states "your profile has been updated' when I checked further, I discovered that eligibility that was formally "we are reviewing has gone back to your eligibility is in progress" We submitted their application May 11, 2023. What could be wrong? Why the backwardness? Medical passed, biometrics exempted because they are children. We applied for Open Study Permit for them The application is past processing time. I'm worried |

Good morning House, I did my biometrics in Lagos, got PPR and submitted my passport to VFS Lagos office through UPS gbagada Lagos on 20th July and got the 3rd email that it has been sent to Canada office Abuja, since then I have not gotten any other mail from vfs. Yesterday I got application updated on my gc key portal and I saw documents status added to my portal which was stating my visa documents number, passport number,name and expiry. Today I got mail from IRCC , I login and saw my letter of introduction. Considering the above, Does that mean my passport is ready for collection at Lagos VFS office. Thanks for your quick response |
