Hello ma'am, going through your GCMS note, it is unfortunate your application couldn't satisfy the officer that the pgc is what you actually need in advancing your current career.

Here is the thing,
Your previous applications have already raised an eyelid on your intention and every other application will assessed from that stance to ascertain if there have been significant change in circumstance. So questions will bother around
1.why you really want the PGC program
2. Why are you not taking it in Nigeria
3. The importance of a foreign degree obtained in Canada and not else where around the world.

Having studied and currently working in a related area to your proposed program(atleast from my understanding), it is not a new aspect to you and you will really have to convince an officer why you have chosen a PGC against a master degree which should be a natural progression. Understandably, you have HND which may not be accepted by most schools in Canada for a master degree program but how were you able to use this to your advantage and convince an officer that instead of a PGC/D in Nigeria, Canada would add the advantages and conduciveness for you.

I highlighted 2 things i noted in your note. If you intend to reapply with same program(which i strongly discourage), you will need to extensively show how lucrative and receptive global hospitality is in Nigeria. The burden will be on you to draw the officer's attention to things they don't already know about this program and the advantage it will give you that same degree in Nigeria won't as well as your overal study plan.
Secondly, i have high doubt your case will get a nod of 'leave' by a federal judge to proceed to the next stage because the court deal with evidences and not claims. They will give credence to the discretion of the officer untill there is an error in facts or misinterpretations of the laws. You may not stand a good chance here.

Here is my suggestions:
-Do not reapply with same program again.
- If it is possible, complete the PGC/D program in Nigeria and later you proceed to Canada for a master degree program. By so doing, there would have been a significant change in your situation and you won't be seen as being desperate to enter Canada.
- Try the express entry route.

Regards.

OK. Did they contact you requesting for the LOA?? With or without it. It's like they are on 'auto repeat'. Purpose of visit is what they are screaming.

Carefully go thru @Austinpee's submission. Paying school fees in full does not address 'purpose of visit'.

flosure:



- Express Entry route seems to be a bit far off. You need a minimum of BSc to meet the basic requirement to be in a pool. And there are other factor that would work against me. So for now,that is a bit far off. Moreso I am not a fan on IELTS

- Me and you know, most students intention is to work after studies. And I would say Canada is a bit of double standard, they claim they are the world most attractive place for students, And they also post often their graduate retention program. So I get so confuse when they reject student saying they are not returning back to their country.

I uploaded the GCSM note that shows reason for previous rejects. The first SP -- purpose of visit and finance 2nd was travel history and purpose of visit. Then I secure visa to europe, then apply for SP for the 3rd time now got reject with no reason that was why I applied for GCMS note

And alot of people do say when you have relation abroad , it helps. But from my experience instead when you tell Canada VO, you have relation abroad. it worsen the case.

Since i used the paper route, i submitted my passport at VFS, (due to that i missed my sisters graduation and a good friends wedding - so ill always advice online route if you need your passport), so after i was called for medicals, they usually attach the TRV on the passport which is in Ghana, and post it back to VFS Lagos.

So by mentioning post, i was referring to it being sent to VFS Lagos.

Willyboss please if you are here....I saw your pm and I have reply you

Hello Flosure,

I was refused/denied Canadian visa twice and I tried US once and I was approved in a minute of my interview with the VO. I think God is speaking to you but you're not hearing HIM. US might be your way. Try US and your dream will be fulfilled and you can enter Canada from US if you like.

To everyone who wait to hear from Canadian Embassy for at-least two months on the decision on your application. Keep the faith alive and be hopeful but I will advise/advice instead of waiting at least two months, try US and VO doesn't take forever to decide on your application.

@bolded is highly misleading, having worked with Java for nearly a decade, very few language can match Python at the moment, may be that's why Python Dance is ongoing . On a more serious note, Learning Python is way to go

Which is easier? GMAT or GRE? Which would u advise someone to take pls? Would really appreciate ur responses.

Austinpee4:

I can relate with your thoughts but you see, under the Canadian immigration laws, a temporary resident would have shown and convinced an officer that there is a strong likelyhood he/she will leave Canada at the end of the authorized stay before the application is approved even when there are incentives to attract the applicant to remain simply because it is a TEMPORARY stay. It's just a law. Officers only enforce this law using the evidence before them and discretion based on the overal circumstance of the applicant. It is more stringent for Africans especially Nigerians because we predominantly want to migrate to these countries. Some under the guise of study and some through other means. To even make it easier, they introduced the permanent residence through the EE so there will be a clear cut difference in the requirements, intent and purposes.

You know, It wasn't this difficult in the past, alot of students who have gone ahead narrowed the chances for others due to the way and manner they absconded or used the laws to their advantage. As a law abiding country like Canada, they will respect their laws and ensure strict adherence to it which sometimes could be against their wish. So to avoid being in such tight corners, the scrutiny is heightened from the word GO so it will be easy for the government to trace back to the circumstance(s) that brought the applicant into Canada should there be any case raised during the stay or in future.

Officers know majority of the applicant will not comeback, as a matter of fact, each applicant is treated as a potential migrant. The law just has to be enforced and officers are allowed to use their discretion also in enforcing this.

Applicants should make sure they show very genuine intent in the intended program, overal goals, study plans and ties to anything/anywhere BUT Canada. They want us more. Canada is a migrant country and will remain that way for a long time. They just want to issue permits and visa for the SOLE purpose it was opened to applicants.

In what so ever decision you take, i'll advise that you do not give them an inkling that you are trying too hard to get into Canada, it will reduce your chances.
