If i were you, i will not worry about length of visa.

i would worry about getting approval instead.

From your previous post, youre going to Windsor,

youre expected to show funds for the first year and living expenses.

windsor is 3 terms a year.

That makes 18k for tuition and 10k for living expenses.

Also show funds will be available for subsequent years if need be since its 3 to 5 semesters

Best wishes
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 14 by Frankrobbn1: 9:32pm On Mar 10, 2018
cindelinc,

Tuition = 18,000CAD (First year tuition), Living expenses = 10,000CAD(First year)... Total = 28,000CAD. Your sponsor needs to have money than the total figure shortlisted and have some left for his business, dependants and personal life. The number of dependants will determine how much your father should have in his account. If your father has many dependants, he should show funds X3 of 28,000CAD... i.e 84,000CAD. Preferably, personal and company bank statements should be submitted along with your application.

Visa will be issued based on the length of your program.

Edited: now using WEIRDPC figure for tuition.

2. How do i convince the VO that i will come back after my study since i already have one master cert? grin
2. Can i apply with my family or i should apply first, then file for family wen i get there?
3. do u pple submit previous passport with ur application?

4. should i apply in china or go back home?

sanjay01,
Welcome to the forum.

Answer 1-) The both will scale through, but the bolded will be easier and will help your case here. But you must account for your study gaps while going through this route.

Answer 2-) Your passion and full interest towards your home country will go a long way in convincing the visa officer that you will return after your studies. Show sufficient ties to your home country i.e. what will compel you to return home?
1-) Do you have a spouse and kids(minors) and are you leaving them behind?
2-) Do you have elderly parents who depend on you?
3-) Do you own businesses/property that you need to continue managing?
4-) Do you have adequate funds?
5-) Do you have family members whom are not accompanying you to Canada?

Answer 3-) The bolded is the best option here. Apply alone, while your family stay back as a strong tie to your country. Once you get there, its very easy to bring them into Canada.

Answer 4-) Do you mean to say if your passport will be submitted along with your application?
Online applicants don't need to submit their passport for application submission, after successful review of applicant application a request for passports will surface. While,
Paper route applicant you have to submit your passport along with your application.

Answer 5-) There is no limited number of pages you must have on your SOP. It really boils down on applicant personal circumstances and situations. An ideal SOP should be straight forward and precise with at least 2-3 pages.

Answer 6-) If you're legally residing in China, let say with a study visa, you don't necessarily need to come back to Nigeria to apply for your visa. Apply in china and save your self from Nigeria application scrutiny by the Visa officer, with less processing time.

I hope this information answers your questions. If not sufficient enough, feel free to ask questions.

All the best!

Hello to everyone in here. Am Kolade an OND holder in Urban and regional planning. I would love to study an undergraduate program related to my course as I love it with passion. I already have little knowledge about the processing but the issue is I couldn't find any college that have related course and I haven't sat for ielts or TOEFL. Also I would like to have an estimate of the cost of studying in Canada. Thanks

de3lar,
Good to have you here.
With the bolded program, I don't think it will be easy to find such exact program in Canada.
Try check: college of the north Atlantic canada at Newfoundland and British Columbia institute of technology. These are colleges that offers wide range of dipolma programs. You haven't gotten an institution yet, so no one can give you an estimate on what it cost, as many institutions have differences on their tuition. Meanwhile, make sure you have your 10,000CAD for living expenses approximately 2.8M plus your tuition (Which I don't know) for your first year of studies in Canada. Finally, don't be in a haste to sit for an English exam (IELTS/TOEFL) endeavor to know the admission requirements for the institution first before doing this. Nigeria is an English speaking country so I don't see reasons sitting for the exams.

All the best on your pursuit.

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 14 by Frankrobbn1: 11:06pm On Mar 10, 2018
sanjay01,

Study gaps simply means what you have been doing since you left university/after the completion of your first degree. That's if you decide to hide the masters degree from them. You might say you have been working since you left university, a job role that is reasonable inlight with the masters degree in economics you intend studying and provide proof to your claims.

If the above route will be hard for you, then you need to provide a rational explanation to why you're going for second masters degree in Canada other than a Phd to show academic/career progression. Because I know that Agricultural economics is no way reasonable with pure Economics, they both defers and have different disciplines. So this left for you to decide which best suit you. But I prefer the first one or you go for a Phd, there are experienced men here that are going for PhD, that will be of paramount help to you. .... In person of Silk07 ,MAziude who is already in Canada and co-, you can Pm them, so they can guide you through the process of securing a PhD offer.

What is needed here is the new passport not the old expired one. But, to be on the safer side, photocopy the bio data pages of the expired passport clearly showing your travel histories and submit it together with the new passport. This will fly best.


The validity of police character certificate here in Nigeria is 3 months, I don't knw about China. Yes since its valid for 2 months you're free to submit it. No cause for alarm.

chrislong,

Your question is vague, that's why no one paid attention to it. Please start by exploring to www.cic.gc.ca you will get a better understanding once you visit the site.
Any abbreviation you seem not to understand, ask questions.... Like SOP - statement of purpose,
LOA - Letter of acceptance, TRV - Temporary resident visa, PPR - passport request, LOE - letter of explanation, V.O - Visa officer, LOS - Letter of sponsorship, PR - Permanent Residence, SOA - statement of account, etc... As time goes on you will get to adapt with the system.

To the above bolded_____ YES! You need a TRV.

You need all your academic and career accomplishment documents, sponsors business/employment documents, bank statement for the past 6 months.

Finally do yourself good by reading the previous part 13 thread. Trust me after reading the 500 pages there, you will be more advanced than me.

All the best!

Yes it can serve as a support to the sponspor personal bank statement but not as primary proof of funds. But if applicant, don't have funds on their company bank statement, its better to submit only the personal statement.
