McOsheBaba: I sense something amiss. In the column where it asks who is responsible for your school expenses, did you unequivocally state that you are on FuLL SCHOLARSHIP? So many people on full scholarship make that mistake stating that they are also sponsoring themselves, thereby subjecting themselves to the whole nightmare of personal funds scrutiny. I have also observed lately that VOs are not honoring funding that comes in the form of only teaching assistantship and work study, they prefer funding to come in the way of scholarship that entails you studying without working in Canada. Just an observation from someone I am currently helping who was denied even with full scholarship comprising of TA and work study. Care to share with us what kind of full scholarship you had? Did you unequivocally state in filling the CIC form that you are on FULL SCHOLARSHIP? 2 Likes |

LONG POST ALERT! Hey guyz For the benefit of others here, i want to explain this issue of " You have not satisfied me that you would leave Canada....." here. I seem to be getting alot of questions in my email box about this. Just as it is clearly written on the refusal letter, an officer was not satisfied you would leave Canada at the end of your authorized stay if your study permit had been approved. He/she would have ticked the area(s) of concern and the onus now is upon you to satisfy and convince the officer that indeed you would leave by tackling the issues raised. It's not as though immigration officers don't want people to stay back but there are LAWS guiding their jobs and each part of your application must meet the provisions of the law. Like i have previously mentioned, under the IRP Acts and regulations and under the temporary visa category, an applicant MUST show he/she will likely return home even if you can stay. It's just something an officer can't help but ensure. It is clearly written in the Acts and regulation as published by IRCC(formerly CIC). However, the discretionary part of their job would be in deducing this likelyhood from your 1. Previous travel history(if you have one) 2. Social, economic and family ties to Nigeria or anywhere else aside Canada. 3. Your financial situation 4. Prospects both in your home country or where you have strong ties. It is not compulsory all these ties be in Nigeria. As a matter of fact, it can be else where you are established or have strong ties to. Unfortunately, most people have stronger ties in Nigeria than else where because most of us have citizenship of Nigeria where our rights are not not limited as compared to other places we don't have citizenship. This is why it is often stressed especially on this forum. If you still have investments, educational ties, employment or political affiliation outside Nigeria and can establish how strong there are to compel you to leave Canada at the end of your authorized stay, you will satisfy the Act's provision and you can use them. Note that the refusal letter always have the line "Leave Canada at the end" and not ' Return to Nigeria'. Which means the focal point is that you leave Canada to where you choose as long as you have established that ties to those places exist and are very strong enough to compel you( Citizenship, Diplomatic ties, religious ties etc). So for people asking if it has to be only Nigeria, Well, since most people have citizenship of Nigeria, it is also advisable you show ties to Nigeria aside where you have other ties. This however does not mean that if you have citizenship of other countries, you can't use it(them). By all means, please do. Also take note of what particular reason(s) was considered when you did not satisfy the Officer (Purpose of visit, personal assets, travel history etc). If the reasons fall under one of these, then know it bothers around what you are going to do and the circumstances surrounding that singular intent.(Before and after) Do not lose hope, get help where necessary, restrategize and ultimately, ensure you see the officer's inference of your previously refused application by getting your GCMS file(your immigration file with IRCC) before you reapply. The refusal letter reason(s) is always vague. The real reason is on the note because it is like a report the officer will make for record purposes and for future reference incase you apply for any other category of Canadian visas or permits. I hope this helps. 11 Likes |

G. What can an applicant do if his application is stuck at BGC? If an application is stuck at BGC for a very long time, i.e. more than 3-5 months after your eligibility is cleared you have two options: a) You can inquire about the status of your security check directly from CSIS. To enquire about the status of a an immigration screening file, the following information is required*: a. a full name, b. date and place of birth, c. the signature of the applicant, and d. a return mailing address as replies are not sent by email or fax. e. If you are enquiring on behalf of another person, the request must be accompanied by the Consent Form to Disclose Information to a Designated Individual. f. Mail or fax the request to CSIS at the attention of: Assistant Director, Operations Canadian Security Intelligence Service P.O. Box 9732, Station T Ottawa, ON K1G 4G4 Fax: 613-369-2954 It takes CSIS 8 weeks to process these requests. Information on this is available at https://www.csis.gc.ca/scrtscrnng/index-en.php#bm02 Some applicants have successfully obtained information from CSIS. b) If CSIS has finished the security screening, then your file is pending final review with IRCC. There is nothing much you can do at this stage. However, there is anecdotal evident that ordering GCMS notes does initiate the process. This is because every time you order GCMS notes, an agent will review the notes before releasing them. If the file has been reviewed by the Agent, and is pending posting the update on the system, the same will be done by the agent when he is reviewing the notes and this will move your file ahead. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Bro, please don't relax or assume, I ordered for my notes prior to the decision from CIC, and the same query and answer is in my note. Just keep praying. When I asked a knowledgeable person in Canada, I learnt it means you are not from a visa exempt country and a counterfoil would be required upon approval of your trv. Pls, keep praying. Abiodunne: |

Moadejimi: Your note also said eligibility passed? What was the outcome of your application, refused or approved? Trying to figure out because Abiodunne's message even saying eligibility passed, the current status online says they are processing his background check and will let him know if information is required. |

On my portal, eligibility in review and medical passed. Don't fret, just keep praying, we can't have the same case. Just don't relax, intensify your fasting and prayer. Abiodunne: |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by Moadejimi: 6:56am On Oct 12, 2017 |
Eligibility in view according to the notes applied for in Aug and requested by atip in september. But received a refusal yesterday on not being able to pay my fees despite making a full tuition payment with extra 1k cad in my student account and also housing deposit before applying for the visa in May. He should keep praying, his case won't be like mine by God's grace. I just shared what the counterfoil query and answer means. Pls y'all, avoid sending CIC messages if not necessary, all the messages I sent them appeared in my notes. They actually see the messages. jnyuwa02: 2 Likes |
