Nellyoo: Most people always advise students to go for 16/24 months program so that they can get 3 years PGWP. This will give them enough time to apply for PR. Honestly, 1 year goes by so fast In Canada. I am tempted to say time abroad goes faster than the one in Nigeria. This does not mean I have not seen people finish 1 year degree programs, get 1 year PGWP and then get their PR. I will give you an example of two different situations. Some of my pals graduated last year August. They applied for PGWP around mid September 2019, got jobs around October via implied status and received 1 year PGWP in January 2020. April this year, some of them lost their jobs for obvious reasons (Covid19). They plan was to use the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) under the Express entry program (EE). The CEC needs you to have at least 1 year of experience in Canada under NOC O, A or B to be able to apply for PR (there are other factors to get necessary points). Unfortunately, Covid spoilt plans and their PGWP expires December 2020. Till date, they have not found another job and PGWP is running out. P.s Under normal circumstances, IRCC says PGWP cannot be extended for international students. However, I advised them to write a letter requesting for PGWP extension citing the pandemic as sufficient reason for such. If they can prove they were laid off due to Covid19, IRCC will extend (this is my opinion and not backed up by any law). The point is, with a 1 year PGWP, anything can happen, timeframe can be a bit short. I also have some friends in Ottawa, Brampton who still have their jobs, same 1 year PGWP and they will be applying for PR around October/November. For these ones, 1 year PGWP is good news for them because it saved them the cost of applying for another program and luckily, Covid did not affect their jobs. So In a nutshell, your answer to the questions below will help you determine if 1 year PGWP is the best for you. (1) What express entry route will you use? (2) Which province will you be studying? In some provinces, you can become PR so fast via their PNP nomination programs. Answers to questions (1) and (2) are very key. (3) What are your skills and experience and what program will you be studying in Canada? Your skills, experience and program of study plays a key role in how fast you will get a job in Canada. (4) Can you pass IELTS/CELPIP in 1 year? I have seen people do these exams 4 times (5) You can start searching some job sites (Indeed, glassdoor, linkedin) and start checking for possible jobs related to your program under NOC 0,A,B. How often do you see job opportunities in your proposed program of study? do you have the technical skills being asked for? The factors/questions above are not exhaustive. There may be other things you need to consider. Do your research. You have the time now. Just so you know; the same documents you need to get 1 year visa is exactly same you need to get 2 years visa. I wish you all the best. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Lekiboboe: 5:55am On Jul 30, 2020 |
[quote author=Hassan19 post=92252995][/quote] @Hassan19 Only u can determine that, U av to be able to show that u av a one year living expenses of $10,000 CAD compulsorily Then ur Tuition fee, That will make u know the amount of money u need to av in ur account or ur sponsors account. And if u are bin sponsored, even after showing the the availability of ur tuition fee and the one-year living expenses, there must be a substantial amount left in ur sponsors account so it won't look like ur sponsor emptied his account just to send u to study overseas without having anything to fall back on for his business purpose or his other children(Most esp. If the sponsor is ur Dad or Mum and u av siblings or relative who has his/her business and kids) Visit the link below on how to Generate GTBank mybankStatement ticket https://www.nairaland.com/5233221/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/628 U can also check @Luckymama post in page 1 about GT bank mybankStatement ticket |

Please for clarification, If going for a 2 yrs program do you have to have the whole 2 years funds available in your account plus cad$10,000 or just first year with $10,000. Lekiboboe: |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Lekiboboe: 8:20am On Jul 30, 2020 |
Dos2020:Nope, u don't av to show funds for the the 2years, just Show for the first year, but if u got the funds for the 2years, do show it... But u av to show evidence of what would bring the funds for second year, in this case its advisable to av a Sponsor... My opinion though.... |
