Please I need a clarification on this question below:-

I'm going for 2 years course which will ended in August 2025 and my passport will expire in March 2025, now my study visa as been approved but till validity of my passport in March 2025 instead of August 2025.

I know I will extend my study permit when I enter Canada but what about my spouse and kids that their passport still valid for 5 years? are they going to issue their visa according to my own validity or they will get their visa completely?

Hello everyone,

I recently received an offer for an MBA program to commence in the fall and have made a CAD$3000 admission deposit. My husband will be my financial sponsor as he has enough savings to cover my tuition fees as well as my own savings which will more than cover all living costs.

My husband intends to travel with me to Canada during the initial settling period to assist with the relocation process, but return to Nigeria to continue his full time job, and visit Canada periodically for the duration of my studies. He could apply for a visitor visa, however it takes up to a year to process based on testimony from relatives who’ve applied recently.

Would it be advisable for him to apply as a dependent as part of the study permit process even though he is also my sponsor and actually intends to remain in our home country due to his strong ties to his current job?

In my research so far, these seem to be my options
1. My husband applies as a dependent and we state in the study plan / cover letter that he intends to remain home for his full time job and only visit Canada occasionally.
2. Indicate he fully intends to move to Canada? But
my husband and his career in our home country are supposed to act as proof of home ties for the application. However, I fear stating he will move to Canada fully (while being my sponsor) can negatively affect the strength of the home ties in our application.

Would greatly appreciate getting advice on this, thanks everyone.

Simple and straightforward. Apply together as a family application with your husband applying for visit visa. The fact you are the primary applicant applying for a study visa likely means decision on your hubby visit visa will be swift and possibly be treated along side your application.

Since he has a well paying job and string economic ties, he should go for visit visa and ensure to elaborate on the economy ties explaining to the VO just exactly as you mentioned here his plan to visit you ocassionally while you study. You dont even have to mention he plans to travel along with you for initial settling in. Any VO could misinterpret it as an opportunity to enter and flagpole.

Thank you very much for this response, it’s very helpful.

So, on the visa application platform, I, as the primary applicant, can apply for a study permit while my husband can apply for a regular visit visa on the same group application? Sorry if it seems a silly question, I just want to make sure we’re choosing the best option, thanks so much.

1. Applying for a study permit- can I apply together with my kids or I should get my own visa first and then later apply for them?

2. Where can I get cheaper health insurance plan to buy and how many months minimum should I get for the 3 of us?

Thanks everyone

zubizareta:


1. Yes you can but it's highly dependent on your home and economic ties as well as your proof of funds.

2. You don't need that as a supporting doc to apply for a visa

Beshibeshi:
Is your application still in process in ircc portal? Not the tracker I mean your application portal

NowisGod109:


Thank you for your response. Now that I want to go with my kids, what can I use as a strong tie? If i have a house in my name and a registered business name here in Nigeria. Can I use those or any other suggestion?

You can apply for school health insurance after study permit received and attach kids as dependents...and required fee will be added to tuition!!

Your living expenses/POF for you and the kids aside from tuition fees is up to 36 million naira

Please how do I use this tracker
It is not working for me, I’ve tried it severally

NowisGod109:


Yeeeh!
But I learnt they also use what I have (as in properties) to determine my proof of fund or they want to see all in my account? If I want to get proof of fund somewhere, how can we deposit the money into my account, like how many batches and for how many months? because all my money is on my business right now as I don't have that sitted in my account right now
