Hello Sir/Ma’am
I have an issue similar to this, my name and name i’ve Been using in all my certificates is Ayodele Dolapo Anderson but my mom remarried and added my stepdad name to my passport as my surname and my dads name as the other name which is now Owolabi Dolapo Anderson Ayodele I applied for the USA visa last year with my stepdads name as the surname but wasn’t given now I changed the name on my passport back to the name on all my certificates and I want to apply for a Canadian study visa I don’t know what that might do to my application and I don’t know what to do.
Ps... i applied for a family US visa, my mom already had a visa and my two younger sisters were given I was the only one not giving
Ps.... my mom is my sponsor and she still has owolabi on her passport and on her SOA she has Ayodele and owolabi and she already Sworn affidavits that she bare all those names.

Swift response is highly appreciated
Thanks

Gurus in the house,

Firstly I want to appreciate your effort for the support you have been rendering to folks here....much appreciated.

Please I need help on behalf of a friend. The previous passport he had has a mistake in his date of birth which he did not bother to correct at the time. He also used the passport to travel to Russia and came back. Now in applying for admission to Canada, his transcript carried his real date of birth so he had to correct the date of birth and one of his three names in a new passport at Abuja for 180k .
The challenge now is in applying for study permit, he is expected to also attached the old passport which will show a different date of birth as well as having one of his name different. Also because he has applied for US visa with the old passport, it might be misrepresentation to say he has not traveled before to avoid attaching the old passport knowing fully well Canada and US share info.

what do you suggest he do as a way of solution to this problem? thanks in advance.

I am attached to a security firm as gaurd which is unskilled and unrelated to my studies. I fear this job experience wouldn't count and could be difficult to co-relate it in SOP. I have enough funds and wouldn't need a co-sponsor

Hello, all the programs listed show reasonable progression. My advice for you will be:

1. If you have enough funds with you get a GIC (Guaranteed investment certificate) from one of the Canadian banks to pay in your living expenses for 12months.
2. I will advice you go for the 2-year Advanced diploma program.
3. Pay your tuition deposit for a semester.
4. Write a convincing SOP.
5. Lastly, you didn't mention your current job and work experience.
6. Study gap doesn't mean anything(You definitely haven't been idle this past years). Regarding the self sponsor I'll advice you get a co-sponsor.

P.s: what's the unrelated field you've been working?

If you’re paying through flywire, they would follow your bank rate. They not gonna ask you for extra or tell you that they have there owned rate. Your bank would only stand as a third party to send the money to flywire in international currency then flywire would deliver the money to your school in two working days or more. your bank would buy dollar from CBN it could be US or CAD depending on the one that’s available at that time. (cause dollar dey finish for CBN wella)
so don’t follow google rate or currency converter board rate in the bank ( banks don't update it). All banks have their own rate.
ask the international fund transfer or customer care in your bank the current rate.

Your bank will charge you (my bank charged me of 15k for all the process) the process no be small thing cause CBN will request for your intl passport, degree result, letter of admission (NYSC is not compulsory) from you before they would release dollar to you.
So the whole process could take 3 hrs plus

I am using flywire as an example cause that's the only option my school gave me. (I don't know if some schools in Canada do receive the money directly from local bank)

If you have any trusted person in Canada
You won't undergo the stress of paying your tuition fee in Nigeria, if you have any trusted person that has a dom account in Nigeria, you ain't stressing yourself with Nigeria bank and CBN. But to me, it's not stress.


Good luck

I am sorry but if you have no work experience in the field you are applying for then the Visa officer might not be convinced that you are a bona fide student and think you are using the study route to migrate to Canada. I am not saying it is impossible just difficult. Why don't you drop your email address and let me contact you.

He must have sworn an affidavit which he used in changing these details at Abuja and also made a news paper publication information the general public. If he has these two things then he should attach them to him application and write LOE to that effect.

It depends on how long u did the job in question, did a job not related to my field for two years after my NYSC. I didn't mention it in my SOP. If you did any professional course etc during the period you can mention that. Then if you're attaching a copy of your CV, which I did, you can put it there so they see you were not idle. I put this employment letter in question as part of my proof of financial documents during my application.
The point is if your experience is not related to your line of study, leave it out and make the SOP sound "academic"
My opinion sha. Other gurus in the house can help.
I hope this helps.

Best advice
Qudkom:


I am sorry, but he knew the date of birth was wrong and he travelled to Russia and applied for a USA visa with it. Apparently due to the DOB popping up on his transcript he now decided to change his name. That is kinda tricky. On the contrary:
1. He should get a letter from the HQ he changed his name and attach it together with his passport data page when submitting online/paper.
2. Get a sworn affidavit.
3. Omit the transcript*** when submitting the visa application and attach other credentials I.e nysc certificate, bsc certificate, CV etc( Please note that omitting the transcript is a contingency should incase...)

I hope other members of this platform will give you the right council.
