Hey Boss,

Thank you for this. I never went through CIC website to know about this but just to buttress on what I wrote earlier, there r certain criteria to fulfil to gain citizenship. Its is not an automatic thing to gain citizenship immediately after studies in Canada.

My assumptions where based on social studies background knowledge of gaining citizenship in country, that the fellow must reside up to 10yrs. I think it still holds in some countries.

the both of you are correct, you know, you studied for 2 years, worked for at least two years, apply and get permanent residency 1 year, then stayed in the country 4 years out of 6, apply and get citizenship the final 1 year of naturalization process. i think all these sum up to be 10 years. thats my calculation tho

ibbravura:
I will be boarding by 25th. Air Manoc 6:30am
Lagos to Toronto.
Please who is heading to toronto that day. Make we relate.
Stopover at moroco and montreal no be here o.

Then leaving for Halifax from Toronto on 29th.

Bro, is it cheaper through that route? I want to know because I go dey go Halifax once my Visa is approved.

CanadianNurse:
bro I was asking in advance... I'm going upper week.... I still collect the well wishes

No problem bro. I think @ibbravura is going via same airline and same week (25th august), maybe both of you can hook up(if it's the same flight)

Emmane:


Dammi, gracias..... I had to go to readup the link you posted. So now we know the 10yrs residency to gain citizenship is not applicable to Canada, but its a normal thing i learnt donkey years ago back in primary abi secondary sch, lol.

But eh, what dos this mean "To become a Canadian citizen after gaining PR status, you have to have spent 1,460 days during the six years right before the date you sign your application and 183 days during each of four calendar years that are fully or partially within the six years right before the date you apply. ..... Cuz I am lost. Pls Explain what they mean by that.

Thanks.

i think it means that you must stay in canada as a permanent resident for at least 1,460 days during the six years, so also understand that in a year you must have spent at least 183 days, not the one that someone will do one year out one year in as long as it is 1460 days. so basically they want to see you every year for at least 183 days but it must be 1460 days before you apply for citizenship

Lol..Datz d new normals .
U don't ve any problem bro. Itx normal .
Atimes dey don't update dat part. The Syd u should focus more is ur background check,medicals, review of eligibility,application status nd final decision.
Gudluck in application bro.

yes boss, been o it since last year october. aplied for fall 2017 but my potential supervisor didn't make a quick choice on my profile cos of visa constraints he said he wanted someone who will resume sept and he know how the Nigeria/African visa stuff works saying he has a 9ja student in is group and it took him 1year+ to get visa. so i had to defer my admission application to winter as he advised. i will call him mail him and text him and i was able to get this email from him on Monday ..

Yes it is boss. Your persistent paid off. Thank God for you.

i guess this should relate more to an international student on 4yrs under graduate studies right?

Baba youre right, because the anxiety of waiting to know your faith alone sef might not allow you to think straight and forge ahead with your life. IMO
the best thing is to just put everything in GODs hands and remove your mind from it inother for you to start making other plans x executing plan B.. hopefuls lets not allow this situation knock us down , we go dey alright last last...

i think its for all international students whether undergrad, postgrad, masters, doctorate, you get to apply for permanent residency after 2 years of full time work in canada(not as a student). its when you get your PR that you start to do those calculations for 4 years and apply for citizenship. some people apply for PR even after working for over 4 years, but citizenship starts to count after you get PR.

A winner don't give up easily, as it is now keep doing works that keeps you busy till the Day God approves it these words are for those that believe God is the supremacy all you should believe is God have a purpose for everything if it works then GOD KNOWS WHY if not don't give up and keep trying you might not know the other chance might be a breakthrough to PR for you.God can break protocols for a child of God so don't give up.

Don't compare or give up easily everything is deposited for us here in earth for prosperity so GRACE is what we all need even if your sin plenty if God have grace on you will be prosperous even a prostitute Rehab in the bible a prostitute that don't know God she heard of God's miracles she don't know God but she got that grace from God.

bro grace and be patient is all for our best ok don't give up

It is possible to get citizenship when you immigrate through student route after 4 or 5 years rather than 10 years in Canada. This is the calculation:

For someone going for 1 year course , such person will be eligible to apply for 1 year PGWP after his/her study and in some province like Manitoba and Saskatchewan, such person can even be eligible to apply for permanent residency after getting at least 6 months work experience. After additional 2 years (plus the first study year and PGWP) making 4 years, one is qualified to apply for citizenship.

yep, you said it, it depends on province. i heard manitoba looks for people alot because their place is like the coldest in canada, even the main canadian citizens run away from that place. i dont know about saskatchewan sha.

Hello Everyone. Please I submitted a visa application for Undergraduate studies. I was denied study visa and more recently a south African visa unknown to me because I had requested for a withdrawal. I mentioned that I was refused visa twice for study visa but didn't mention the South African refusal. Please I need to send a mail to the Visa officers in Accra informing them so it's added as an addition. Please which email address can I send mail to?Please!!! Thanks

For PR chances don't you guys think those axis people don't move to for those going for studies they should apply there then later one can move to their desired location?

OmalichaUC:

Jnyuwa02 pls may I PM you too? I really need clarifications on my application.

Feel free

Visa will show up. I love the passage Jnyuwa02 shared last week-"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God".

Also remember that "the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry".

Though it is not easy, just try to keep yourself busy with something. Learn new things and keep trusting God!
