Olayinkaji:hello, Trust you are doing great I believe you are getting faster than your shadow, you cannot start online classes if you haven’t gotten your study permit application approved first . Checked your posts and I saw you are yet to do biometrics. Hopefully when you get application approved you can proceed to start online classes and it doesn’t affect your PGWP Regards 2 Likes |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Blema111: 9:10am On Jun 07, 2020 |
Olayinkaji:Online classes is only for those who have been approved. Starting the classes without an approval does not have any impact on your application. There’s really no issue in deferring the admission to Fall 2021 if your intended institution doesn’t have Winter/Spring session. 1 Like |

Tonyodg:Yes I understand it is because the school gave a deadline to submit deferral or accept to start online classes before June 30th. I wonder why they are in haste. |

Good day, Please is there any March online applicant yet to receive final decision from IRCC? |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by NairaLuck: 10:28am On Jun 07, 2020 |
Good morning everyone, thanks for immeasurable assistance so far. I need some clarification, I would be getting my admission letter next week cause I deferred from Fall to Winter. I have finished writing my SOP, in the list of documents do I have to notarize my Certificates, Statement of Results, Transcripts, WAEC result? Also for police certificate, where can I get it? And what's the life span of Police clearance? I want to get these above documents ready before I start working on my sponsors documents. My sponsor is my Cousin, same Surname and he's been supporting me all these while. Thanks as I await your most reliable contributions |

Hi All, I haven't been here for a while, but l saw an update which moved me greatly to post, incase anyone has unanswered questions. Warning this post is gonna be really long but it's worth the read, trust me (just a little way l can help, airing my opinion...l was once in your shoes, so l know how it feels!). I think now is a great time to study online, if you are thinking of deferring, please do not as now is a chance to have an upper hand! I doubt if a vo can argue about the genuineness of an applicant who has started studying online. This can be escalated if there is a future denial, because l believe the Vos won't want to stir any drama in the air & in my opinion, if they were to refuse an app, after obvious studies has began online, it's really gonna reduce their credibility on refusing an applicant on the ground of not being a genuine student. A student who isn't genuine, won't take the risk but someone who wants to study, have absolute right to study online. If l were in the concerned individuals shoes, l would act as follows: 1. My app is in progress, oh nothing is gonna change, l would proceed in opening up a webform with a proof of my intention or/and errolment online, to start online studies including attachments of whatever email l got from the school. Web Form Link: https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx 2. My app hasn't been submitted category, even better! Put in the above info and your intention in your LOE. 3. I have an admission but haven't started the process, l am thinking of deferring. Please do not defer, l repeat....do not defer! Take advantage of this to improve your chances. I believe the risk is worth it. 4. I have no admission yet, my advise is to start applying to schools who have response rate within a month and start online! It isn't bad shooting your shots (people are still working from home in Canada, so let's hope for the best). 5. For those doubting and scared... please read the link below to see what's going on. The verdict is that most countries like Canada are passionate about keeping their economy top notch, and international student are a good source of revenue! The online study option was designed to be a win win....just have it in mind that as much as you want to study, they want you to spend your money in their economy & boost it in the long run (there is no secret that international student are a good source of workers & permanent residency holders in future, people who schooled previously in Canada, are given an advantage to increase their chances i.e points towards future P.R & express entry app (talking from experience as l came in through studies too & it's been a bit of smooth sailing, that l literally feel entitled to somethings. Please note that getting into Canada is hard but when you're in, things get easier as long as you are focus & you break no rule).

Let us be cautious about this online study stuff..it is advisable to have a study permit or approval before u can enroll to study online..I feel online study will have no effect on the decision of the vo's..it is better to wait for IRCC decision on your application before embarking on such Patty03: 2 Likes |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Nobody: 11:34am On Jun 07, 2020 |
For the bolded, are you able to genuinely justify why your cousin will want to make such an investment on you? What does he/she stand to gain from such investment? Why will your cousin spend millions on your education? Do he/she not family of their own to tender for? Does your cousin not have a business or other investments to channel their funds into? VO’s are aware of people using *fake* sponsors just to file for study permit. I’m not saying yours is fake, I’m just giving a notion. If you’re not able to justify why your cousin is making such investment, your approval chances may be low. I have seen people with genuine intent to study but low funds, that got rejected because they couldn’t explain why their sponsors will make such an investment on them. These VO’s are very concerned about your financial status. Anyone using friend, uncle, cousin, Aunty, business partner etc, should always have a STRONG justification to backup their sponsorship Just my opinion All the best NairaLuck: |

Blema111:Please be aware that people work at IRCC and IRCC have representatives of different ethnicities. The ethnicity of the writer shouldn't be questionable as l have clients in Canada of colour who work at IRCC. So let's have an open mind, taking risk is only for the brave hearted. I greatly sympathize with applicants who got denied on the ground of not being a genuine student. Take it from someone who has ordered multiple GCM files for people....so if something come up to increase your chances or show that you are genuine, why not take it! I have seen the Vos even denying people with scholarship! So l advise applicants to keep their fingers crossed and do what they have to do. Do a situation analysis, focus on pros and cons, scrutinize alternatives, have a contingency plan than to just sit down and leave things in faith. You got to do what you have to, to succeed...it's a choice in proofing whether you are a genuine student or not....so the decision is up to applicants and remember the Vos are human beings too who work for IRCC at different locations. So l advise again, please do everything, that can proof your genuiness, l repeat do things that proof your genuiness! 3 Likes 1 Share |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by jessicajessa(f): 11:59am On Jun 07, 2020 |
Kaycevit:How do you then intend to proof your genuiness? I have seen countless genuine people get denied. If applicants have questions and concerns, l advise they contact their school directly, each school have an international student advisor. Besides the school won't be sending an option for online study to international student if they haven't made their findings....so do not deny yourself an opportunity because of fear! I advise do your findings, contact your school if you are in the shoes of the concerned applicants. 1 Like |

Please be guided.. online study without atleast study permit approval will not have effect on the decisions of IRCC couple with the high study visa denial rate at the moment..let all be wise using this approach jessicajessa: |

I agree with you. Its a very tricky situation. Mind you, the schools want your money and will be happy to allow you enroll and pay tuition fees and attend classes. CIC can still refuse you. Except if you are financially stable and willing to battle it out with IRCC with the help of an immigration lawyer. If not, egun gun has to be careful, cos na express you d go with your money.

Kaycevit:Is there a valid proof that it won't affect or influence the decision? An applicant is advised to put his or her best foot forward. Apllicants obviously still need to do a tight application free of loopholes, my advise is for the genuine, smart and risk tolerant people who meet other requirements of eligibility (they know themselves). I am not quaranteeing that the approach would lead to an approval if you don't play your part....the approach only increase your chances & give you an arguable edge against the Vos in cases of appealing a decision of denial too. For instance, my first application years ago to Canada was first denied due to an error on their end & l refired in 2-3days, with proof and also a letter of unjust refusal with more proof and l got issued a study permit in 3weeks! Think l am just talking? Please refer to my post from years ago, it won't be a long dig as l haven't posted much. One thing l know about the Canadian culture in my opinion is confidence, sorry to say (absolutely no offense meant) most Nigerians are scared, they rely on begging to get things done (Canadians dislike begging), some Nigerians show the previously mentioned in their application (SOP/LOE) how Canada is such a privilege and leave out the love for their country (Nigeria), hence their desperation is perceived instantly. If l were an applicant, l would take the risk but it isn't compulsory though. Those who has gotten denied several times, l bet it hurts, when you know you are genuine! What are you gonna do about it, wait? Or take the risk...your choice. Either way you would be ok, because God knows best! 8 Likes |

ralfudoh:In this debate, everyone is right, we just have to be more open minded! Not only schools want your money, everyone wants your money (including me lol)....so focus more on proofing your genuiness and increasing your chances ok? Obviously the advise wasn't intended for everyone...but those who have an open mind....do a situation analysis, focus on your pros and cons, then decide. 4 Likes |

Patty03:Did you see this in the website you shared? Question: If I start my studies online from abroad without an approved study permit, will this time be included towards a future PGWP application?

He's been supporting me since 100L as repaying the favour he recieved from my dad then. Plus his kids are still very young. I also got some personal funds too incase of emergency.
