There is no harm or cime in sending them through the webform. U just have to explain to them that u omitted these 2 important documents, after which they will receive and add them to ur file.. You can as well send it through mail to the official email address of the office handling ur application. Peace

Thanks alot @makano please which particular office handles online applications and what is their email address?

London was solely responsible for online application for Nigerians as at last year, but now Its now shared to 2 other offices i.e Lagos and Nairobi... These are their email addresses: For London - ldnimmigration@international.gc.ca , For Lagos - LAGOSIMMIGRATION@international.gc.ca I dont know that of Nairobi cos I didnt actually care to know, beefing them at the moment.. But I will suggest u send a general webform, you will knw the particular office responsible for ur application from their response to you.. Good luck

Hi Guys, i need a clarification on upfront medical. I sent a mail for appointment to IOM Ikeja and they responded requesting for information like this below which i have responded to.

PLEASE GURU I NEED YOUR CANDID AND PROFESSIONAL ADVICE ON WHAT I SHOULD ADD, REMOVE OR DO DIFFERENTLY!

Thanks for the great works always.

@Frankrobbn1 @GboyegaD @Austicus @042viber

what is the source of the 1.2mill and do you have experience on the field work of plant science

IbikunleBukky:
No need for sales receipt, bank statement reflecting the transactions is better and CAC dosc will be better.

there is no harm in adding 2-3 sales receipt to back up funds that reflect on your sponsors statement of account especially if it’s large funds. It actually helps to clarify the data on the SOA.SOA is a must and receipt are just to support.

.

Please does anyone here have any idea on

1. how I can apply for Student Visa to Canada without using IELTS??

And

2. which schools in Canada won’t require me to pay any upfront tuition fees ( I wish to work and pay off when I get there) ??

I wish to do a Postgraduate MSC course over there so I’m really in search of how I can achieve this dream

Thanks

hello house..here i am in canada.����...i will like to share my poe cuz i was abit concernd abt that before leavg nigeria..and cuz my cousin was once denied at d POE..my journey was smooth.the distance frm casablanca to montreal was jst tiring cuz i went with my daughtr...but thank God,i Got to montreal airport lately ,was asked to go to immigratn 1...and our conversatiom goes thus.....

cbsa........hi
me...........hello
cbsa........passport pls
me...........i handed it over
cbsa.........can u gv me 5min to print ur study permit pls
me...........yea..and i dropped my passport and decided to v a seat
Aftr 5min he called me bck and handed it over to me,he asked if my daughtr was on studnt visa too ,i answerd No and he said welcome to canada ,you can go fr ur baggage pls...
i was surprised nothg was asked,no questn..nothg
meanwile i saw other pple with thorough checking ,some were directed to immigration 2,i met some sitting down and left them still sitting ...
I return all the glory to the Almighty God and i want us to alwys put evrythg befr God...my prayer point was alwys (GOD I DNT WANT ANY DELAY AT THE POE ,DEY SHLD JUST HAND OVER MY STUDY PERMIT AND SAY WELCOME TO CANADA) i actually got it d way i wanted...atyms wen im prayg i usually say is it possible but now i knw my God is awesome....i pray fr every1 waitg for response fr visa shall have a positive response IJN.

I had the same fear too! Even started reading news about how they've denied entries in the past. I was also worried about customs giving me issues with my luggage. Surprisingly, all the person asked me was what school, what course and that was that. Even printed my account statement as POF sef just in case.

Ps. I'll advise anyone coming to book a flight with at least 3 or 4 hrs layover at the POE, because I missed my connecting flight and it was not funny at all. Had to spend 2days in Toronto before I got another flight to Winnipeg.

mulikky:

It means we were on the same flight and my story was similar with immigration 2 stand but my best moment was the fact that I was already in Casablanca for 8hours layover before my immigration introduction letter was updated on my Cic account. It took God for me to get it printed within the airport as everyone was just saying there was no facility for such in the airport.
Let's keep believing in our dreams

So as not to shut my self, should I simply mute my Dad does a business, bkuz there's no bank statement for his business, he receives his money by cash. He recently retired though. He has 15 plots of land worth 12m. After the calculation of my whole expenses in canada. His account will be 5M left. So theres enough fund for my studies.

He does poultry. Should I disclose he's into business ?

Advice me pls

Are you the only dependant? Having 5m when there’s nothing there dependant doesn’t show a good financial strength.

Yes. Am his only dependant. His business is not registeted

Business not registered is a big deal. But a good inflow and outflow of SOA might help. Lets wait for the gurus to come in.

sillysassysally:
Wow, I am so sorry about the outcome of your SP application.
Did you apply alone? or did you apply with your wife?

No, i didn't apply with my wife. In fact, i indicated she is not accompanying me.

Senatorkolade:


The Red flag here is that you are currently serving

OMG!

Thanks so much for your response!
Some people told me how they got it while serving and how they emphasised serving their country. That's why i included it.

Do u suggest i reapply when i am done with service by July 28th? By that time, there will be no current employment and My resumption (Fall, 2019), would be 1 month time.

Thanks alot, Stay blessed!

sillysassysally:
How is NYSC a red flag? i don't agree with this.

For me, I think he failed to convince the VO on two key things.
1. Purpose of visit - how well did he address this in his SOA
2. Intention to return to home country after studies - the OP is 31 and has no travel history. Also, how well did he show potential job prospects upon his return to Nigeria?

These are the things that come to my mind. Of course, GCMS notes would help put things into perspective.

Thanks so much.

I think i tried my best to explain the purpose of visit.

About SOA, pls, is $46800 not enough for the total duration when the tuition for the 2years is $13072?

Really, I explained the job prospects, i even got a recommendation letter from an International Scientist in that field in a reputable international agric research institute practicing in that line. He also explained the prospects.

Please do i really tackle this issues in my next application?

Stay blessed!
