willyboss: Sorry about the delay. If you finished from uni in 2011 which is about 6 years ago and you have 10 months working experience in your field, i am guessing you have been doing this business with your friend for almost 4 years. I think the VO believes that you should be interested in furthering your studies to improve your business and not your undergraduate course. This is just my thoughts. I don't really know so much. 1 Like 1 Share |

willyboss:Bro I'll say it again if that business of yours/friend is not inline with your proposed course of study bearing in mind ur previous experience is just 10months. The said purpose of visit will surely be coming up. |

emeify:The business is sale of petroleum products, I showed enough funds and ties to Nigeria(members of my family are all in Nigeria and I provided assets and). The VO stated that he/she is not "CONVINCED" that I would leave Canada on completion of my programme and ticked only "PURPOSE OF VISIT" |

cheapphones: While true that Canada is looking for immigrants, they also are not looking for persons who would become liabilities to the country. Yes it is obvious that they know that 98% of those admitted to the country would not be heading back. home, this doesn't then mean that they'd admit everyone just because you got admission. Which is why they offer pgwp for those who have found it important to study and pass, so as to give them the opportunity to not only improve themselves, but also improve their economy in turn. Most people who are not convincing about their studies, they know would end up adding absolutely nothing to the betterment of their country. Hence... For example a 24 year old guy going to study and I'd being sponsored by parents by most standards would seem legit seeing as it is generally believed that no parent would spend so much just got the child to come and go and drop out... Likewise, a 30-36 going for studies ahn spinnaker by self would probably carry a lot more scrutiny seeing as there are really no guarantees. Everybody just has to learn to be analytical....... Please note my example doesn't necessarily show the VO's train of thought, but mine from a purely analytical perspective. All the best |

They enter Street and start committing fraud and other crimes to survive in the name of hustle? That is what they are trying to curb! They want to make sure you are a genuine student 1 Like |

CanadianNurse: This is so true. I once spoke to a friend in canada who knew someone in the embassy and he stated that he was told PGCs and diplomas mostly get delayed because statistics showed that a high percentage of them end up dropping out of their program or deferring to work thereby not resuming when they are supposed to. I think we should do better. Everybody wants to go Canada but we should try to sort out our funds for at least the first year before leaving. If we have better reputation and statistics, Canada won't be scared to give us Visa. 3 Likes |

willyboss:the purpose of visit is clear because that BUSINESS I think has no relationship with MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. even if a program relates to our undergraduate let it also fall in line with our current activity/employment/job responsibilities in other to show career progression especially if you ain't a FRESH GRAGUATE FROM THE UNIVERSITY. na we dey use our hands give ourselves ''purpose of visit''. in 2015 what were you doing as I sensed a GAP there? in 2016 till date you told the VO you do business in petroleum? na here purpose of visit begin show. The VO didn't see what MEng program in Mech.Eng would benefit to your current situation as a businessman. so much work would have been done on your SOP to make things defined and clear and reasons for such postgraduate study(M.Eng), but I think it wasn't made clearer. TRV application requires smart thinking you have to think 360* degrees. The Doc* 3 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 12 by CPA01: 11:02am On May 12, 2017 |
michV: I dont even understand this purpose of visit thing anymore. If he opted for a businesses related course cos he is into business then we will say his undergraduate studies is not in line with proposed studies. I have seen someone on this thread that got this same purpose of visit with perfect course (Masters) and well related work experience. Am thinking nowadays TRV is based on Overall profile of the applicant and sometimes poor SOP. With due respect sir, what do you expect this applicant to do in this case?.. Do you expect him to start looking for job in his field?.. Kindly throw more light please. My view: TRV is getting tougher nowadays. Nigerians have disappointed us in canada. We should all be prayerful and hopefull. All the best 1 Like |

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 12 by Austinpee4: 11:24am On May 12, 2017 |
michV:I also agree with you bro. The thing is, any slight shift away from a current activity, a visa officer suspicion about intentions will be high especially from we nigerians. They don't even trust our moves whether genuine or not. Everything must just add up from start to finish. A VO may think, emm, this bros worked briefly in an area in mech, switch enter petroleum business and then wants to go back to get higher education in mech that he already left. Nothin like atleast one certification eg HSE or something that will show that this bros really get interest in mech even though he is briefly doing a business. This way, they know you have shown interest in your career, have gone some steps further after undergraduate study to improve on it(work,research,seminar,conferences,certifications) and now want to get a more competitive and advantageous degree in a master. Honestly, i feel for @willyboss. It's really heart breaking. Just that little gap between working as a piping draftman and venturing into the business without so much to look forward to evidentially as a mechanical engineer caught the VO's eye. They just don't trust our slightest move! They believe we imploy all strategy to go to canada. It's really sad that genuine students also fall victim to this. Sometimes, i believe our chances also depend on FAVOUR. Two different visa officers may see things differently. |

[quote author=willyboss post=56439739]Please house I need advice on this: My application was refused on PURPOSE OF VISIT because the vo wasn't "convinced" I would leave Canada on completion of my programme. In my application I included my assets and that members of my family are in Nigeria. I am not married. my purposed course of study is in line with my undergraduate degree. how do I CONVINCE the vo that I would leave? I thought I had that covered already. You need to work on your SOP. Get your GCMS notes and let the gurus in the house help you with further advice. 2 Likes |

CPA01:bro lemme explain things further..just some months into business wouldn't earn him admission for MBA in Canada, I don't think so, many years of experience with projects in such business field may earn him a Masters admission in business despite his undergraduate as mech.engr. His sure bet for admission is his undergraduate background which got him the masters admission. TRV application is entirely a different process to face facts and act smart. Like the other lady who studied French in UG, works in a telecom coy and going for masters in French. she got ''purpose of visit refusal'' even on top her funding from the intended school. According to the profile she stated, the VO has not seen what masters in French would benefit her current employment[telecom] for some years. if her job responsibilities/roles/position in telecom relate to French and explained that to the VO with her employment letter indicating such responsibilities and also the prospects after such study to her career, I don't think a VO would refuse her on that ground. Career progression is ascertained especially if you aren't a fresher from school. do you want to leave your 5/6/7..years in service for another field in this our naija economy wey work hard to get? it shows you have nothing to come back to after your studies which makes the VO skeptical. Also poor SOP is a factor too when the ideas are not detailed and organised. I have seen a GCMS NOTE where the VO stated study plan is inconsistent with previous studies and employment. this indicates our SOPs too is a contributing factor 1 Like |

aykay45: Memorial has a very crappy admission procedure, You might have to mail the department or the school to know the decision they made. If not, you might have to wait for abt 2 months before they send the hardcopy of their decision to you... |
