Thanks you bro
The agent explained to me that universities are expensive and college are more cheaper so he insisted in applying he is goin to apply for college for both me and my friend.
The agent ask me to pay upfront of 100k which he will pay to the school in form of an acceptance fee to secure the visa.
Meanwhile my friend that introduced me to him also wants to process Canada through the agent but hasn't got his passport and his gonna do that month ending

Hi, reading through the thread myself, but i would advise you do some research and forget about that agent. If you read just about the last 10 pages of this thread, you'll see why using agents might be at your detriment. I know you might feel its something very difficult or impossible to do, believe me, you can do it ursef. Just try google the course you want, read the requirements, apply. And read up and put your docs together for application. This thread is morethan enough to help you with your application, if u get stucked, ask questions here, enlightened pple will help, so far you are polite. No dash any agent your money, the agent myt complicate things for you. Goodluck

No one here can tell you if you will get the TRV or not. However, I would say your chances are very bright given your financial backing and the relation between your undergraduate and pgc. I will say just continue to hope in God and you will testify like others.

This journey has really me believe the popular saying of " patience is a virtue"

Re: Travelling To Canada Part 11 by jamal411: 4:23pm On Jan 18, 2017
Yes you are right. I explained to the agent and sent him a screenshot from my email showing when it was mentioned by me. Luckily the date and time email was sent was clearly visible for him to see.

He accepted to write CIC to explain and take responsibility for the error. I have no choice at this point than to trust him, because he is a member of ICCRC with good standing and cic has been in touch with him throughout my application process. He is a certified agent and his name and RCIC number is clearly visible on the ICCRC website.

So I cannot at this point contact CIC directly myself, that will be a breach of contract and honestly CIC may not even respond to me even if I try to go alone on this.

Having said that, I think the explanation from him will be sufficient. Afterall cic are the ones who encourage and advice us to use certified agents instead of uncertified ones if we decide to use representation.

I doubt if they will punish me with a refusal/ban for somebody's error, should incase they do then they have to punish him too otherwise it won't be fair cuz I didn't fill the forms myself... However I am positive it won't get to that.

Thank you for responding

Cheers


thesoj:
Include proof of emails you sent to your agent where you told him/her to state your US visa denials. While this may get the agent in trouble, it tells CIC the truth and helps you avoid a five-year ban. Don't trust the agent to respond on your behalf to CIC, cos he/she will only try to protect himself/herself. Also, this should be a lesson for you to not put all your trust in an agent... or if you use an agent, make sure you review what he/she sends to CIC on your behalf. You risk being banned if you don't take this into your own hands.

Thank you again. It seems so. I just got a mail this morning from cic requesting additional document. They need his father to sign an authorization document for him to travel with me. I dont want to get excited though because I don't know if they are still reviewing or if they have made a decision.His medical changed to passed last week. What do you think. Here is part of the mail they sent.

This is in reference to your application for temporary residence. The following documents are required to
continue processing your application:

> Parent Authorization to Travel: Signed letter of authorization from the non accompanying
parent (father) authorizing your travel to Canada. Must be accompanied by a copy of his passport or
national id clearly showing his signature. This must be received at this office by: 2017/0
God is ever faithful...d feeling was very strong honestly... start celebrating... it's done... congratulations...all Glory 2 God alone.

Hello everyone
Pls am in a state of confusion right now and i will be so glad if you can help me out.
A friend of mine introduced me to an agent, in which i had a brief discussion with the traveling agent. He told me i will need to give him my WAEC cert, scanned passport data page, birth certificate and an 100k upfront to pay the school as an acceptance fee then we later talk about the amount am going to pay for his service which is 150k.
Please should i trust the agent and proceed or quit? Please ur opinion is needed
Thanks in advance God bless you guys

Isn't this service fee too much?

Service fee is even more than their agent college "acceptance fee". 100k acceptance fee sound like the guy want to use their money to buy land for village or perhaps arrange ticket for himself to travel.

It is well.

If UBC is the only school you apply to, you are yet to apply to schools. They reject sometimes more than 80% of their applicants. Toronto and McGill included. Be guided.

Boss, mehn its not been easy with researching ooh. I so appreciate the above links, gone through them and i plan applying to one of the for my brother. But Please can you help me suggest Graduate schools in Canada that you are aware Nigerians have got scholarships before in the past.
Since i have plans for Canadian immigration, i would really appreciate Canadian universities. I have mailed Univ of Victoria and manitoba and honestly their story nor just straight, still referring me to links that say nothing much about funding for academic merit students.

Please other nairalanders can also help suggest, because my fiance and brother have great results in the fields of Health and Engineering respectively and i am passionate about making an admission for them as soon as possible against September 2017 or Jan 2018 batch.
God bless.

Lol, still a learner o and im a lady. I'ld advice you apply to more schools just to be on a safe side. Iv actually applied to 3 schools b4 now and didnt get admitted to any, ubc included. But i guess that was due to a couple of factors sha, i was naive then, thinking canada dishes out admission lyk UK. So, play it safe and apply to more schools that are less competitive, hopefully pple can suggest some unis for u. You should prolly state the course you intend to study, some1 myt be able to help. Alternatively, try n read through the thread, you'll come across some unis. Or google somtin lyk "cheap canadian universities for international students". Such unis shudnt be as competitive as ubc, utoronto and d likes. Goodluck

U applied to only UBC and you are in doubt whether to apply to other schs? Bros you dey joke angry
You have to overlook the 100CAD app fee for other schs and apply. Infact apply to a minimum of 3 except you are a first class graduate.
Pls don't ever put all your eggs in one basket. Its very risky.

Even if he graduated with a first class sef, It is risky. Cos there are other things to consider, sop, reference.And some other international applicants One will compete against have work experience or published article(s),research papers. I got to read about it on reddit after i had applied to some schools, i could understand why i didnt get admitted. Learnt my lessons late, so its just best to have insurance Unis.

40k cad for all masters or professional masters? If all, there own pass UofToronto.
Anyway, at Aboki rate, a chairman calculated 378 per cad or something close to that. At form A rate, it is less than 250 per cad. You can join the prayer group asking for change of policy that will favour form A soon.

Use Access bank card for anything higher than 100 USD. Use GTB for 100 USD and lower. I used the GTB own recently and was charged around 240 per cad. I have never tried the access bank card.

I hope you have secure all other requirements like supervisor if needed. Otherwise, you are 90% about to throway some money in the air.

Shalom!

successtouch:


the challenge you are having is not your sponsorship. it has to with the course you are going for ,that is why purpose of visit was ticked . ur course is nether related to your job or your undergraduate studies. and you also have to go for a program that is higher than your previous education, there should be a career progression. and you can also order for your case file. to know exactly what you are addressing. for personal asset your spouse and children and your personal account statement will address that and if you are employed a leave of absent will address it. success can only come when u do things differently from the way u did before. take your time and make sure you are addressing the right thing.
