good evening all i must say you guys are doing a good job. i came into this forum as a newbie i think sometime in january.i already had my admission from a canadian university already for masters in environmental engineering and have a bsc in chemical engineering from a nija uni(2014). i asked the first question here on how to go about my deposit payment to my school but unfortunately it wasnt answered but i just read on the thread and googled some questions too and was able to make the deposit of 2kcad not even the full tuition payment.. ok to cut the long story short, this post is for dose discouraged and it may serve as encouragement to them not to relent..i applied for my trv on 7th of feb(paper route) for the first time i do not have any travel history before, i got an invite for medicals 1st march and got my trv on 9th march(yesterday)..my dear it was really a surprise to me coz it was after i applied i even got to start reading and following up more on the thread i got scared at some point when i even saw some documents that was mentioned here like sop, letter of previous employment place ,sponsor birth certificate, sponsor passport biodata page, siblings birth cerificate and parents too, police report too etc. men all this things been no dey my application i said to my sef i dun f up o.. The only things i submitted was my trv forms, sponsor letter, sponsor account statement(personal and company) , sponsor cac documents, my nysc discharge, waec certificate, degree certificate, diploma in telecoms certificate,my personal account with just 170k closing balance, ielts, identification letter, my bsc school transcript, evidence of paid 2kcad, admission letter, accomodation offer letter from school and above all THE G FACTOR(GOD). this are just what i used in applying for the first time and getting it.. i think a simple and genuine application makes the job easy for the vo. i applaud these guys frank, iyjuwa, chuks and many others i cant remember their names i dont reply nor comment though but i follow your posts and comments and you give really good advices and una dey try e no easy to dey give free advice abeg so GOD bless you all and reward you all ur heart desires .. for those expecting it will be your turn soon..cheers yall and all the best to you all.

Am a silent reader. now my turn to ask gurus in d house my question. i already have my master in China in agricultural economics but just gotten master in economics in Canada. Here are my questions

1. Do i need to present it with my application that i already have my master? or i should just present only my btech
2. How do i convince the VO that i will come back after my study since i already have one master cert?
3. Can i apply with my family or i should apply first, then file for family wen i get there ?
4. do u pple submit previous passport with ur application?
5. how many page for SOP?
6. should i apply in china or go back home?
Thanks for ur advice.

Note:The main reason why i applied for master again was that i have applied for PhD several times in Economics but not granted.

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

Frankrobbn1:
. Thanks sir.

how should i go about my study gap if i should choose the bolded one? question 4 is about previous issued passport because am presently on my second passport. i dont know if i should present the previous with my application or i should just use the new one? what is d validity for police certificate? can i use two months dated police cert?




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 after 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 before you can apply for 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!

Mazi9,
CAC certificate/document is a document that show proof that sponspor business is legally registered. The full meaning of CAC is - Corporate Affairs Commission.....

All the best!

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!

Hi Chris,

Kindly go the CIC website for information and updates.

Also, check out page 0 of this thread, I promise most of you questions will be answered by the time you are done reading up.

Cheers.

Thanks.

Is it mandatory to submit the company acct with the CAC document? Am not using the account as POF

Frankrobbn1:


No it's not mandatory as the Visa officers don't regard Company bank statement.

kylexy61:
Guys I think a TRV HOPEFULS LIST for 2018 should be created, like you've been doing in the past years.

Moley22:

It should be regarded but important to add along side a personal bank statement of the sponsor with a substantial amount...
