Frankrobbn1: hmmm... it took me 3 days of doing nothing else than compressing files. At some point, i was extremely fatigued. But here is what i realized that helped me along the line. 1. Scan as PDF. ( Not all printers do this, as a matter of fact only big printers do this). i used the HP printer laser pro 200. Scanning your docs directly as pdf reduced the size. Scanning as image or picture is quite heavy and even when you save as PDF it is bigger than if yoiu had scanned to pdf directly. 2. Use ilovepdf.com to compress files ( i noticed its the best PDF compressing tool. it reduced smaller than others. It also allows you an opportunty to choose the quality of the document you want. 3. Another option if you wanna even reduce the PDF size after scanning to pdf is use select tool on PDF and select the picture from PDF and paste in word. The size even comes out smaller. its a lot of work compressing until you get 4mb but you will get it eventually goingforward. 2 Likes |

Kindly follow their instructions on your application portal. If your referees are asked to send official reference letters, then contact them and get them write the letters while you send it via DHL yourself. Most times, Uottawa request for official and unofficial reference letters. |

Please I have a question. If one successfully top up his HND to BSc with a recognized private school in Nigeria, how possible can you proceed to master abroad ? The reason for my question is this, I read in one school in Canada that for you to be considered for masters, you must have BSc with study period of not less than 3yrs. My fear is that, if you top up in 2yrs, won't this be reflected in your result and thereby falling short of the above threshold? Please a well informed individual should clear me on this. |

tomiwa18: Can u share your profile pls so can be duly advised. When did u apply, refused and have u applied for your gcms note? |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 14 by Uzee24: 3:28pm On Jun 15, 2018 |
Asapant: Yes, it has to be an official(institutional email as they put it) email address. That way, the school gets to know you are not the one refreeing yourself. Anybody can own a personal email, but you just cant own an email with the name or acronym of an institution if you dont work there. Think of it like the official and unofficial transcript you send before and after you recieve your admission. |

Please is it possible to do upfront medicals when applying online? |

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 14 by Jayjaycee18: 4:42pm On Jun 15, 2018 |
To attach files, 1st scan in PDF, then use free applications like ''Nitro pro'' to merge, arrange/rearrange them in the order you want (i.e. pagination etc). Then ''Save'' the combined files and check if under 4MB. If the file is more than 4MB, use ''ilovepdf.com'' to compress the combined files and select how much compression & quality you need. After working on ''ilovepdf.com'', if the file is still too large, then try recompressing/further compression on either ''pdf2go.com'' or ''smallpdf.com''. All these sites are free and allow you to upload your files for free compression. Good luck 1 Like |

alftdbts: @olugere, this was previously addressed. It will be wrong to complete Common Law declaration form except you do not have proof that you are married. What is your status? Married or in Common Law relationship? |

Goldenegg: We need the Guru in the house to advise us. Is this actually possible? I still have a valid visiting visa. Can application be made within Canada? Am searching CIC site, can't seem to find a clue. |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 14 by reichwolf: 5:11pm On Jun 15, 2018 |
Kishkosh: Did you attach it to your SOP or? |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 14 by Nobody: 5:12pm On Jun 15, 2018 |
i just got it now am grateful If you are in a common-law union, you must also fill out the Statutory Declaration of Common-law Union (IMM 5409) form and include it with your application. If you are married, you must send a photocopy of your marriage licence or certificate with your application. rolorolo: |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 14 by Goldenegg: 5:13pm On Jun 15, 2018 |
Gurus in the house please advice us o. Can we apply from within Canada for study permit if we can travel there with visiting visa. Has anyone done it successfully? rolorolo: |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 14 by Asapant: 5:17pm On Jun 15, 2018 |
@kishkosh you told me ealier that it isn't necessary to be from an official email, buh considerimg Uzee's advice. I feel it's mandatory to be from an official mail. Kishkosh: |

From the little info i have. Yes, you can and such applications i heard are being treated in their Los Angeles office and the refusal rate for such is high because when in such situation, it is always difficult to prove home ties and how of a genuine student you are. You flew into the country to visit in the first place, how easy will it be to convince the VO of your new intention of been a student who will go back to his/her country afterwards. Few immigration consultants i know usually advice against it except you can really prove home ties to your country. Goldenegg: |

nadigo:Hello, 1st things first, apply for and get admission, use this https://www.usnews.com/education/best-global-universities/search?country=canada&subject=&name= Check all the schools that have related courses she needs, MPH can be really competitive so apply early, when she gets admission then planning for visa is next. |

Greetings all, I applied for trv with a conditional letter of admission. Having fulfilled the conditions, is it advisable to request for the unconditional letter of admission and mail it to CiC?? |

Goldenegg: You can only apply from Canada if you are a legal resident there (eg. If you are a permanent resident or have a work permit). You cannot apply for study permit on a visiting Visa. 1 Like |

I understand this rule but yes, it is possible to change status in Canada. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=483&top=15 reading through this link, such an individual might fall under "other applicants category" kylexy61: 1 Like |

Goldenegg:I think when you have a visiting visa you don't need to come back to study visa because you will definitely still apply for PR, so within the space of 3 years you will be applying for 3 categories of Canadian visa |

nacos: Try to request for the unconditional. But it may not be absolutely necessary to mail it to CIC just yet. They may or may not request for it. I applied for TRV with a conditional admission letter. I was granted the TRV without any request from CIC for the unconditional letter. 1 Like |
