Hello everyone,

My application has been messed up by an agent. He submitted fictitious documents and other information that are not true about me.

Problem started when he refused to drop login credentials to my IRCC application portal and he was acting suspicious, so I decided to verify every document that he sent me.

LOA for Conestoga College, course: Information Technology Business Analysis (1372). This was fake. School responded to my mail that information on the LOA does not match their record.

After so much pressure in November 2023 to know the status of my application and requesting for my login credentials to IRCC portal or screenshot of my dashboard and email he used to submit my application. He sent me a refusal letter dated barely 2 weeks after my biometrics. Date on refusal letter, March 29, 2023. I did my biometrics March 16, 2023.

At this point, it was dawn on me that I have been a victim of a bad agent. So I went further to order for GCMS notes+documents. See below the GCMS note:


Text: The applicant has not provided a plan of studies. As such, the applicant has failed to satisfy me that pursuing the selected program of study is reasonable given the high cost of international study in Canada when weighed against the potential career/employment benefits after completion, and the local options available for similar studies.
The applicant did not demonstrate that he/she is sufficiently well established and would leaveCanada at the end of a period of authorized stay.
Bank statement comes from a microfinance bank and is unverifiable. I am not satisfied that sufficient funds will be available for the applicant's studies.
I'm not satisfied on balance that the eligibility requirements of R216 are met and that the applicant would leave Canada at the end of a temporary stay.

The bank statement too was probably a fake one, but thankfully I was not issued a ban.

After carefully looking at the information and documentation he submitted I noticed whole lot of errors:

He stated that I’m single. I have two kids and legally married

Wrong Mother's and Father's name

Gave me LOA for Conestoga College, course: Information Technology Business Analysis (1372). This was fake

Different course submitted on application:


STUDY PERMIT
School: Designated Learning Inst-NL
DLI Name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Level of Study: University - Master's Deg.
Authorization Level: Any Designated Post Secondary Institution
Field of Study: Business/Mgmt/Marketing

He lied that I graduated with first class from a fictitious University with fake course Financial Accounting

My real course was Computer Science

Now my questions is:

If at any point VO would make reference to previous applications submitted while reviewing a new one.
OR
new application will be assessed on its own merits as stated on the refusal letter?

Hello Everyone here,
I met with some travel agents and I was advised that my Uni grade (3rd class. 1.65 CGPA) was too low to get me admitted into a program of my choice at any college, despite having almost a decade of professional experience in it. Is this anyway true? I'll be glad if someone can share their experience if they have encountered something like this.

Hello guys ... what's the visa chance for someone that wants to declare two masters to apply for a post graduate certificate of 1 year in canada.

No, as long as the lien was removed the day your "my bank statement" ticket was created for you by your bank. However, if the lien wasn't removed while creating MBS the money will not reflect in your available bal. Because of the lien. I think GLOBUS bank have a way they do theirs even with lien. But for first bank the lien has to be removed first before the money is moved to your available bal. I hope this helps

It will end in praise

Pls any Trent University ontario student here?

bullstriker:
It is usually frowned upon when someone is going for a lower education level as it looks more like a program taken just for the sake of migration to Canada. But, you can address the concern in your well-articulated SoP. I know that most business degrees completed many years ago are almost obsolete due to the emergence of new technologies and trends, and these postgraduate programs are designed for those wishing to update themselves on recent market trends in their industry. The key is to give a strong enough opinion on why the program is relevant to your career growth. It helps when the intended program is related to your present occupation and an area of specialization. As mentioned above, it's easier to show career progression with a higher level of education.

All the best.

Thank you

Hello,

I’ve got a couple of request from people who are going to school in May or September this year on how we can support each other. As a result of this, I have created this WhatsApp group to serve as a support group for us all to interact and discuss things around securing accommodation, flight booking, landing, navigating school and any other necessary information that may be useful. Please join via this link: https:///HY4lJ0kVoXPEi7tTp9Yi8Z

Just so you know that I did my application all by myself- from admission, to getting scholarship, and finally visa approval. I may have one or two tips that could be helpful. I look forward to connecting with you all.

Cheers!

We did not use agent, I watched videos and applied myself.

TunnyOgunnowo:


Hello, after you submitted, has the surge in exchange rate affected your POF? Going by currently exchange rate as at today January 14th (N713/$CAD), is your POF still sufficient?

And if not, what are your options?

I'm asking because I also submitted in December 2023 and as at when I submitted my POF was sufficient but now exchange rate is increased and my POF is now short about 500$CAD.

Upward2024:
Dear house,
