@thesoj all the gurus in the house pls look into this�

Not soon apparently cheesy cheesy

About completing my application. M.Eng Mechanical fall 2018.

thesoj:

Defer your admission. Why do you think the VO will treat your application in a special way and respond to your application in less than half the average processing time?

Also, why do you think the VO will treat your application drastically different if you are age 25 vs if you are age 26 at the time of application?

Either way, rushing to reapply doesn't help your cause of addressing all the issues from your previous application.

Per your question about your non-parent sponsor I already answered you about it in the past. Plus, this topic is probably the most highly discussed topic on the thread.

I'm afraid that you risk being denied for insufficient funds again if you are not willing to make the meagre investment of reading a few pages of the thread to identify how to address your previous insufficient funds denial.

thesoj:
I'm afraid I have to agree with the poster above. Stating your position authoritatively without being open to being challenged is very bad for the thread, and doesn't help future readers whatsoever. And this defeats the purpose of the thread, and causes unnecessary confusion to readers.

All the people I know have been filling that column with their entire amount available for them for the duration of their studies and rightfully so because that is the question asked. Yours for one year is a pretty novel idea. Don't you think these people understand the law and if what is really meant is funds for a year, they would have stated so on the question unequivocally and in no uncertain terms? I am confident based on my knowledge of the law that what they are asking is not a year. If they meant a year, the way they asked the question would have left them vulnerable to litigation at a Canadian federal court and that person who sues them will win.

Exactly! The way/manner one's application is presented matters a lot. They should look organized and lucid for the Visa Officer to go through them.

I fully disagree with your speculation turned fact, as described above. This is not the first time that VOs would deny applicants with funding but didn't make it abundantly clear. Even if he wrote "full funding" it doesn't mean that the funding letter was clear and showed all the amounts necessary; if I remember correctly another applicant on this thread said he got full funding but his funding letter didn't state the amount (and was denied for insufficient funds). This is likely the application you are referring to.

I also can't understand how you make the logical leap that the applicant was denied because he had a research assistantship and not a scholarship.

Research assistantships are scholarships for funding purposes.

WEIRDPC:


Please, I'm getting my documents ready for next application. I'm currently working on the Imm1294 form, I have filled my tuition as 14k room and board as 6k , others as 2k, funds available for my study as 60k , now on the who will pay my expenses, How do I fill it? I have 7 mill from my mum 6million from uncle and 20k from RA.


Please , treat as urgent. as I don't want to make a mistake like the first application

Hi jnyuwa02,

Actually this is my first post on this forum. As a matter of fact, i had to sign up so i can address you and your related post. Having followed this thread silently for over a year now, i must say it is one of the most insightful and informative so far.
I used most information gotten from here to process my study permit application which was approved on the first attempt. I have learnt from past elders in this house and i'm still learning from the current knowledgeable people here too because i also want to guide my siblings to pursue their study here in Canada.

Now to the issue, i have watched and read most of your comments filled with so much ambuiguity, aggressiveness, pride and very unwelcoming attitude towards everybody that have a contrary view and opinion about anything you post here. One thing you must learn to understand is that this is a forum and in as much as you 'think' you are knowledgeable or intelligent on a wide variety of issues, the bulk doesn't and won't stop at your table. Reading most of your post, i notice you only want anything you suggest or say to either stand out or be acceptable as the right thing probably because you use grammars or your well carved words project sense in the things you post.

You must learn to be humble, interact with people that have little or similar or more knowledge or idea than you. You flip a lot once someone challenges your post and this is simply because you see a contrary opinion in a competitive manner rather than in an interactive way. Nobody here is a VO or an immigration expert, if all you claim you know about laws, immigration and all were really what they are, you wouldn't be here in the first place. You would use those knowledge to build an independent empire for yourself in one way or the other and not here arguing and arguing. Real intelligent people don't argue a lot, the pick things from people's opinion and make the most of them either by studying more or using a better strategy.

I have followed @Austinpee4 very well all through the period i was preparing for my application and one thing i can tell about him is facts! He just has a way to give you facts than mere sentiments or assumed knowledge. Even in this still, he will advise that people go on the appropraite website to cross-check information put across. Even with the event of today, he still didn't disappoint. He attached a screen shot of the facts and even part of the screen shot was the same thing you started dragging. Do you even get tired

While filling my form, i filled funds for one year and the statements of accounts showed funds for one year. Deep into the processing of my application, CIC requested that i pay my tuition and show evidence of living expenses for a year because of tyyhe forex control policies at the time and not for two years like you have been struggling to prove today. I have lots of friends here in Canada who all filled funds for a year. Some didn't even have the funds but were able to show this using their sponsors. The required funds is for a year! If any applicant choose to show an exceeding amount to cover for the entire program, good! But it doesn't change the provisions of the ACT of CIC that requires funds for a year. They can't give conflicting statements either on their forms or the website as you noted.

Only in a case of a self sponsored applicant that this may apply if he or she does not have any source or sources of generating further income while studying in Canada. If your look carefully at the screenshot, the later part of it mention that the student must also show that there will be a possibility of generating funds for subsequent years. Then what are you even saying? If an applicant has a sponsor that is working and can earn enough to support the sponsored, i don't see how this would mean showing the entire funds. Why then is there a need for a sponsor when you have shown funds for your entire program.

Dude, you don't have to be combative to understand things neither do you need to lie to yourself when you do not have information about something. Own up to it, learn and improve on how you relate with people. This is one sure avenue for you to improve on yourself and as far as i'm concerned, your attitude towards your post are more important than what you are even writing sef. It's either you are reminding us on how long you have lived in the US or how you understand the Canadian system and laws but then it is not reflective in your post. I have a lot of respect for you but most times, i can't seem to understand why it is difficult for you to relate with people that have better understanding than yourself in an issue. Nobody knows it all. You have learnt a lot here since you joined and shows you have made progress in your knowledge.



Accomodate people's opinion and ideas, learn how to response with some sense of agreement or disagreement. Keep your personal experience to yourself, majority of us are not interested. If you have a suggestion to make, give an accurate one and allow people make their decision. Most importantly, avoid resentful comments, it's just appalling each time you do. You are smart, yes. Allow this also to show in how you relate in the forum. It is a forum afteral and not a house of competition.

Have a good day sir.

Hello Boss, let me address it this way.

1) 60k you arrived at is from where? Why are you trying to make your case more complicated?

2) what is stated in your RA letter? is your funding yearly? If it is stated there, then that makes the case easy

3) Go to your school's website, find out how graduate students with RA pay their tuition. Why? Most school allow you pay from your your paycheck. They deduct certain amount from your monthly pay to account for your tuition ( At least Uottawa does that). If you have that information, it would be easier for you to know how to go about your fund situation.

You will be left with a balance of 6000CAD since your tuition is 14000CAD. In this case, you only need additional funding from your mum probably 2k or 3k depending on how large you want to live. This is more practical instead of including your uncle which makes your case complicated. Remember, it is not how much an SOA has, it is always about how much amount whoever gave you the SOA is willing to give you, ( in this case, your mum has a high probability of giving you cash than your uncle).

4. If not stated in your RA letter about the frequency, then I would state 23k CAD. 20k CAD from school, then 3kCAD from.

Peace.

And that was the suggestion gurus gave me in the house to address the insufficient funds. Are u saying I should still go ahead paying the fees in my next application even wen the school has stated fees is not refundable?

Hi. No I did not pay my tuition fee and it's not a must to pay your tuition fee before you apply for your TRV. If you feel paying your tuition will aid the approval of your visa, please feel free to do so.

Help me praise God. Application approved / Original passport request this morning! Only God

mcobex:
@10shuare Which school is that? cos I don't think that's 100% true(they must have another option). The thing is your tuition fee can be refunded to you but only on the condition that you were denied trv (which we don't pray for), once you can show proof of the denial your tuition fee will be sent back to you. though some schools will collect some charges from it but it won't be much. Another way is you make sure you have all the funds under your care (in your own bank account )even if it means you opening a dorm account and explain to the vo why you have taken such move, also let the vo know you are ready to make payment once you get the go-ahead. NB: Any school that doesn't refund tuition fee at all will not ask you to pay for it until after trv has been approved, so ask your school to clarify what they meant by that

Ope100:
Why not? I'm more than willing to assist you if it's in an area I'm well informed, if not the gurus in the house are here for you. Feel free to ask whatever here.
