JustMellow:


How sure are you that the agent didn't do something contrary to the information provided by you. On the other hand, i have seen a gcms notes were the VO was lousy and paid less attention to the applicants refusal concerns in the notes. This is an error on the side of the VO. I think little or nothing can be done especially id the notes contains other sensitive information about you.

BTW do well to screen shot the appropriate page were the VO addressed the main concerns, you can check the last 2-3 pages.

Thanks for replying. To the bolded, so it seems. This is the only page having the explained note. Rest pages are generic CIC msgs.

I don’t get why should I thank God for my course?

Because if it were to be MBA or Msc comp, or any other course with the special fees,you would have paid between 10k to 20k CAD extra.. If not for career progression ish with the VOs, most people would gladly pick a course like yours.

OptimusPrime21:


Huh... almost everybody here is applying with a work permit.... who isn't going there to secure a job... if u start trying to explain that, the vo will see you have a motive or you even tot about it.. leave that one... all u need to worry about is showing the vo you are genuinely going for studies and coming back, get your financials intact and tight...

thank you my brother for your word of encourage

Hello everyone! Happy may 29th.
I just received my GCMS note pertaining to my first application. The reasons for refusal as stated in the IRCC correspondence letter is Purpose of visit, Family ties in Canada and country of residence, Personal assets and financial status. Meanwhile, in the GCMS letter, it was stated I'm accompanying a minor to school, which is not true. Please Ogass FrankRobben, Qudkom, Mellow, Austacus, and all, willing to help a brother on his second attempt, your input would be highly appreciated. Thanks

NB: In my first application, I used the service of an agent who wasn't concerned about the outcome of my application, rather for selfish interest. I didn't submit a mission statement, and the receipt of the tuition I made, was also omitted.

Based on the information provided above,

Your agent messed up the whole application. Although VOs do make errors and atimes some come to abrupt decisions but remember that not just one VO will look at the application and definitely it will still go through final review before decisions are been made.

Now, do you know that I strongly go against using agent. Reason because they mess up applications and whatever the result maybe they will walk away with the huge deposit given to them.

Do you know there’s possibility of the agent putting a minor in your application who you don’t know but may have collected money from the client. Moreover, if it is successful you won’t know because all applications may depend on each other but are treated differently.

Do you know some agents are one this thread, they come and learn them make money out of it.

People will always fall for them, even if they know something like this thread even exist. those are the desperate and non chalant applicants who just believe money can do everything.

If you don’t want to use them again try to stylish ask them of what they submitted for you or you wait for like a year before you submit another application because a lot of things could change in ones life within or after 12months. Let’s be realistic.

Try to put up a convincing application and all will be fine.

[quote author=Oganammuo post=78821451]Pls all the gurus in the house, help me with this question.
I am working with my HND accounting. Masters is a must in my field for promotion and other incentives. I've been brousing and realise that no matter how high my cgpa is, I can't be admitted into Canadian uni for masters in accounting.
I have two options: 1yr PGD or 2yrs PGD. Now choosing Iyr PGD, so I can come back and use it to enrole into masters in Nigeria. Or 2yrs PGD, which is more convincing cos my aim is to obtain masters?

Can I progress to masters in Canada after completing a PGD program with HND cert?

Sorry about your refusal, the funds in your account and that of your sponsor, was is it lump sum deposits? How is the inflows and outflows? Was your sponsor's account corporate or personal, did you show evidence for the sources of these funds?
Before you reapply, try to get your gcms note for details, thank God the only refusal reason is on the ground of finance and personal asset which you can easily fix in your next application.

sillysassysally:
I honestly have no clue.
When did you submit your passport and what office is treating your application?

I submitted on Monday ma, at the Lagos vsf centre.
My app was online as well .
Wait , are you trying to infer that it's the embassy location where one''s app is treated that will stamp the passport ?

Hi Sis,
I am so sorry to hear about your refusal. I know exactly how you are feeling right now, and it is okay to feel sad, but do not feel dejected or frustrated.

Now you need to order your GCMS notes to know exactly why you were refused, and then re-apply addressing the issues raised by the VO.
Though it says financial assets and financial status, but a GCMS notes can give better insight.
I would suggest you look at what you have between you and your hubby and then compare with the expenses of the school, also bearing in mind that you have a child.
Do you have scholarship from the school? If no then you should bear in mind that the VO may be expecting to see enough funds to cover you and your child (if accompany you) and also have enough left for your hubby.

Do not rush to apply. order your notes, and also start to address the situation as much as you can before your GCMS notes come in... in about 30 days.

Shalom!

Thanks for your response. Since my school starts September 3rd, I won't be able to wait for 30 days or more for a Gcms note. Now the question is are there usually difference from this point they raced for refusal than what the GCMS note will contain?

No it was not a lump sum deposits, it was a personal account that ran normal and smoothly with a balance of 10million + and mine was also my normal account even for my salary too.
Yes I showed evidence of the source of funds as my husband had his Pay slip, employment letter etc.

Sorry about your refusal. However getting your gcms note is a default thing to do. I'd like to state my initial verdict on your refusal.

You are a mature applicant and the cost of study in CND in lieu to the amount available does not justify your return. We are talking about a program and living expenses in the tune of almost 7million yearly. And apparently maybe your husband didn't show proof of future financial earnings to justify his ability to meet up future expenses. Also your employment condition is also a huge factor.

In your next application you need to show more financial prowess and economic and financial ties to Nigeria in the form of; Personal bank deposits, bonds, and stocks and any other financial assets you can compile. A piece of land does not compel you to return. Perhaps you should explain vividly what you intend to do with the land; Agriculture, future office, warehouse etc.

I am really interested in your application and I hope you figure it out and use your resources to good use. Remember apply caution and dont look desperate in your next application. All the best.

It's difficult progressing into Msc. Program with and hnd certificate. Your best route towards a masters degree program is a Post baccalaureate diploma program. A post baccalaureate program is a bridge between the bsc credits you are lacking and a potential msc program should you come out in flying colours.

I will also advise you to seek the institutions admission department so they can guide you accordingly. All the best.

How are you imputing the tracking ID?

Hello @Qudkom

Please can anyone guide me through on how to request GCMS note..

I suppose you've been guided on the process.you can also use an open source search (google) to get more information. Sharing links is apparently prohibited on this forum.

I think so but I’m not sure.
On my visa counterfoil, there’s a place that said “Kenya”

The people applying for work permit are people going for programs where work is an essential part of the curriculum.

For instance, for my program, 50% of the curriculum entails working in an asset management company which is compulsory for all students. Hence, were were advised to apply for a co-op work permit alongside our study permit. This does not weaken my application in the sense that the VO would think I won’t come back. It’s merely a part of the program requirement.

OptimusPrime21:

sillysassysally:

Copy and paste. Am smiling London tomorrow. All this their delay isn't am ready for again

I don’t think there’s any need for you to complicate things. If you program has asked you to apply for a co-op work permit, it means that the work is an essential part of the educational program itself.

For instance, imagine an international student going for a 5-year engineering course where in the student would have to seek industrial placement in his 4th year. That industrial placement is part of the curriculum and part of the students grade. The student does not have to explain the work. He only has to explain his academic plan in the context of his visa application.

Hence, you don’t have to start mentioning the work thingy so as not to complicate matters. It is part of your academic program

akanbijm:
Please my course involve that I should apply with a full time work permit along with the study permit. How can I convince the Visa Officer that full-time work permit along with my study permit which I am about to apply for is not an avenue to secure a good job in Canada. Please the guru in the house I need your contribution.
