If you go ahead and apply with your current passport your study permit will end before you finish school in which case you have to apply for extension within Canada (CA$ 150)
You’ll also have to apply for a new passport at Ottawa, fee ( US$250) *not sure*
My opinion
Check if you can defer your admission ( worst case scenario)
Apply for the 10yrs booklet (5yrs is waste of money)

Lol did you say defer?? God will provide the 400CAD when i get there.

oloyemeji:
Is it ideal for someone who just got a job not more than 4 months to apply using his salary account of 4 months old as a statement of account though he has another fund as a supporting fund in another bank or he should just wait till the bank statement is 6 months before submitting application.

I need an answer to this ooo

Please can anyone help me with this

goddyog:
Good morning house,

I am back with my questions again.

Please for someone who studied criminology and graduated 2019 but has been teaching since 2020 and also a fashion designer (the fashion design is not registered) what is the best study route to take?

Again, for money constraint, can if i do a certificate course and get a 1 year work visa, can i still further my school in other to stay back because i dont intend returning back.

For home tie, we have a 2 bedroom bungalow and 2 piece of land, she has a property built by her father in her name( can we also use that). Then families and my work will give me a 1 year study leave. Are these enough for home ties?

Finally, i also intend going with my spouse, will she also get a 1 year spouse work permit? If yes can she go to school immediately i round up my own 1 year course?

Thanks

With these profile below, please can anybody suggest a 1year PGD program an individual can do in Canada.

Why should someone hold his/her PoF for 4 months before apply?
So if the person happens to sell a property does that mean he should hold the proceeds for 4 months before applying?

Or do you mean statement of account for 4 months?

Honestly, there are cases where account can be active and inflows is running to 100s of millions within 6 months and he planned to use said account for the application, those that mean the person should still hold such fund for 4 months?

Omo, I’m honestly finding it hard to understand the reason behind it.

I know someone who only had his PoF for 7 days before applying and they gave him visa for 10 year (visitor).

My understanding of account is for the person to demonstrate that he/she has some kind of steady income.
Because I’m sure it makes not sense I keep 30m in an account for 4 months why the fund looses value, and no any other transaction taking play on the account.

I may be wrong!

First you don't make mistake of comparing a visit visa to study visa as the POF of the later is more scrutinized.
Also, if you sell a property, you don't necessarily have to hold the proceeds of sales for 4 months in your account. It's advisable to demonstrate the availability of those funds as solely for study by using part of it to make an expense for your study either part of tuition payment balance or GIC. However, some have submitted and gotten approval without showing this demonstration of availability though keeping the money in your account for an extended period also helps your case as it technically demonstrates its availability.
However, I think the person you are responding to meant duration of statement of account of 4 months imo.

Finally, what these VOs basically check out are:
Healthy opening balance
Sufficient closing balance
Volatile balances (sharp change in balances in the acct at different periods say for example, u have an opening bal of 7m in May then around June, the bal go as low as 100,000 then suddenly boost to 10million within next 1 month and closer to date of your submission). That's heavy volatile balance and VO can doubt the availability of the funds.

When your SOA doesn't satisfy the 3 points higlited above, especially first and 3rd, best you can do is demonstrate availability of those funds by making an expense for your education and also make sure you explain in details the lump sums and attach supporting docs.

Based on the individual's educational and professional background as a Doctor of Optometry and Medical Officer, here's a suggestion for a 1-year Postgraduate Certificate (PG Cert) program in Canada:

Postgraduate Certificate in Healthcare Management or Health Administration at a Canadian College.

This program would be suitable for someone with a healthcare background looking to enhance their skills in healthcare management, leadership, and administration. It can provide valuable knowledge and skills for those interested in pursuing managerial roles within healthcare organizations.

Await more response from others

Hello everyone

I've been silent after I got delayed in 2021 but somehow I got the motivation to reapply and this time on my own.

A family friend applied previously for me(who is not different from an agent) but I just want to ask can I create a new GC keys or I have to request for the details of the old one and use that?

If you don't have access to previous GC Keys login then you can create new one. Fill the UCI in the immigration forms and the new portal will be updated with all your details

alakara:


for now, after work visa, study visa is the better alternative.
you have to streamline your choice of school to the budget you have.
Cheers.

ok..thank you

I want to resign my work.

Hello house, pls can anyone guide me on how to close the account i created in the new portal? Reason is that i have decided to use the GCkey. So please how can i close that account in the new portal?

Damilare5882:
Lol did you say defer?? God will provide the 400CAD when i get there.

Totally understand good luck with your application

Canada released 2022 Study permit application refusal and approval statistics for Africans .

It’s a shame that South Africans and most other countries do not migrate like Nigerians. If the hardship in nigeria hasn’t become unbearable, it doesn’t really worth it coming to canada for many. It is tough out here cost of living is so high and difficult to get High paid jobs. Many are homeless and sleeping in shelter homes and going to food bank everyday.only If nigeria can become great again. Our past leaders should be ashamed of themselves .

Why resign from your work place? Pls kindly secure your student visa first before resign.

Why not plan for UK. Seems a more straightforward process. Write IELTS, do PLAB 1, Do PLAB 2 and get a job straight.

Why not wait till visa is approved?

Thank you very much ZUBIZARETA for the good work you are doing here, God almighty will perfect all that concerns you bro.

Well what I noticed is that if someone lack of documentation to backup his claim that the propose study funds is raised from the sales of property and no details explanation of lump sums in the bank account is Red flag.

Also, if someone hold the proceeds of sales for months in his bank account without explain in ​details the lump sums and backed with documents to proof it doesn't count anything.

Because the funds I used for proof of funds apart from my Sponsor's bank statement and little funds in my salary account I submitted, I opening my new account with N1,000 and the lump sums was transferred to the account on day 3, then printed the bank statement on day 4, still got my student visa approved.

In an event like this I make sure I left no stone untouched I explained the lump sums in details in my SOP&LOE, then backed it up with documents related to the property ( from first generation to the last )

I hope this help someone

Amen..

Yes, just I said earlier, some people have done that Here I mean sending lump sum close to date of submission and still got approval. Truth is this things basically rely on how you word your SOP and the VO handling the case.
The best way to usually checkmate this is demonstrating the availability of the funds makking an expense.
In conclusion, supporting docs as you said is one of the most important and how you use your SOP to convince the VO. In all, na to enter prayers once you submit application.

Please my first study application was refused due to not properly explained lump sums. It is a two years course with option of completing in one year if I forgo the Co-op part of the program. My first application was before naira devaluation by Tinubu. So even if I properly explain the lump sums, my funds won’t be enough for the two years option of my program at the current exchange rate. So I am thinking of reapplying for one year study permit for the same program instead of two years for the refused application. It is for the same program. My available funds is enough for only one year. Please can that cause a red flag and lead to another refusal?
