Hi @Ayoadefantastic,

Any update from your friend now? Hope there is now an update on his/her account?

Frankrobbn1:


Once it starts reading WE ARE REVIEWING YOUR MEDICAL EXAM and review of ELIGIBILITY are both running concurrently, you will definitely receive a medical request shortly.


Congratulations!


It will end in praise.

What about when you have already submitted medicals with the application Since June 10, what does this review mean? Mine has been reading reviewing medical report since July 1st. Eligibility and background running too. Has anyone experienced this?

Pls house, can ones traditional ruler be used as a sponsor, even though they don't share the same surname?

Does it mean if I don't have a rich family member I can't use a friend or colleague as a sponsor. If I can pls what should they provide?

These may have been asked in the past pls pardon me because I could not locate it.

Pardon my newbie question sir. If I decide to start my process now, if all goes well, what time can I get in? I know Sept 2020 maybe out. Will it be Jan 2021 or Sept 2021?

Well I will say its 50/50,
cos as at today, the processing time for Nigerian Applicants Outside Canada (in Nigeria) is 25 Weeks, Quite Weird
and it is bin stated by IRCC that they are processing study visa For Fall Intakes till SEPTEMBER 15

and these are the following Application processing phase by IRCC

Phase 1
- Letter Of Acceptance
- Proof of Funds
- Ties to home Country

Phase 2
- Medical Exam
- Police Certificate
- Biometrics

My own suggestion,
if u apply and u are not able to have a VISA Decision before SEPTEMBER 2020, then u will have no choice than to defer to JANUARY 2021 Winter, that's if ur program has that intake or ur school instruct u to do so,
and
it also depends on what the international Dept. Or Program Coordinator/Supervio Of ur school has to say as regards this, cos there are students for fall 2020 intake whose program is not Virtual, and they have to inform students to defer to Fall 2021 cos of the uncertainty of lifting Travel Restrictions

Do await more response to this question u asked for more inputs

All da best!!!!!

IRCC really surprised me today from submitting an application July 16th, getting feedback 31st of July that’s literally just two weeks..... this really shows no two applications are treated the same.

No be lie @Tonydog

I can' tell it's a Positive Feedback u got from IRCC

My take on this ,
I feel decisions are based on how a visa officer view documents, the visa officer in charge of one's application and the documents an Applicant showed.

For example,
Normally one would feel since an Applicant who applied in June , he/she should av gotten a Medical request by Now,
.but u can see what has bin happening lately but no they Haven't, only few have gotten

Some applicants who applied First week of July av gotten medical requests..

Advisably , Applicants should fulfil all righteousness in their application before submission and back it with up Prayers..

And as usual ,at the end, Nothing but PRAISES!!!!!!

It's a good progression on your application. At this point, all you need to do is to raise a CSE via IRCC webform and update them with your E-medical slip. The responsible immigration case analyst will update your file accordingly.

Yes the new update on approval in principle is applicable to every applicant who haven't done biometrics and medical in the past. Though, I recently found out that IRCC are randomly picking and processing applications while ignoring those whose applications have stayed for a long time.

Hello everyone, I recently completed and submitted my study permit application online. But I'm still not sure if I did enough for proof of funds. I submitted the statement of account of my sponsor, which has about 3500CAD in it, along with proof of employment, some land documents and also a letter from his place of work that shows he is entitled to a loan. Is this enough, my tuition for a year is about 14,400CAD excluding living expenses. I'll be glad if someone with experience on this, can help me with information.

NwanyiOkpa:

My friend submitted his application July 16th, did upfront Medical 22nd. Yesterday he got a mail saying he had passed the eligibility stage today he got a medical request. Just 2 weeks !!

In restropect to my post about Background Checks and ELIGIBILITY review, it doesn't take the visa officer a long time to pass an applicant's ELIGIBILITY. As a matter of fact the time consuming stage of every immigration process to Canada is the Background Check, which consists of the criminality and security checks. ELIGIBILITY review can be completed within the space of hours, days or weeks depending on the workload of the visa officer responsible for the application. Mind you, IRCC are becoming faster for study visa processing so that international students can register for their fall 2020 courses and begin studies from their home country. International students were named as key drivers in economic and demographic growth, which are important to Canada’s economic recovery and long-term success. Thus why Canada can't allow the novel COVID-19 pandemic affect one of the major contributor of her economy.

Well you can say that again and again, albeit I'm optimistic that pending applications with IRCC will soon be finalized so they can also begin their classes from their home country. Unarguably, the month of August will be filled with approvals on this thread.


Congratulations in advance to everyone who has invested so much in their respective applications and expecting a decison.

Canada adds one more month of travel restrictions

The extension didn't come as a surprise to me. This might linger until September 31st. Watch and see.

Did I hear you say you submitted only a bank statement with an equivalent closing balance of 3,500CAD with your application? Whilst, your program cost 14,400CAD. Why will you submit such an empty application for the visa officer to reject you?. That's not an ideal step by you!. Please be advised that IRCC requires that sponsor must show proof of funds to cover for the first academic year, this includes the tuition and living expenses of the applicant. More importantly, the living expenses has to be 10,000CAD. In light of this, your sponsor hasn't demonstrated sufficient proof of financial support to sponsor your stay in Canada without recourse to public funds. To this end, your application is at higher risk of getting a refusal.



As always, it will end in praise.

this is great news mehn. but how come he is getting medical request after doing upfront medical?

NwanyiOkpa:

The upfront medical done was his own choice not instructed by IRCC. But today he got IRCCs instruction to submit his medical which he notified them through a webform he had already done, so makes the process faster.

Anyone can sponsor your studies to Canada. Nonetheless, the visa officer is more concerned about you having full access to the funds presented in your application not just making claims without valid evidence. In this case, your traditional ruler should provide documents to show his source of wealth and stipends/allocations from the state government of Nigeria. He might also explain to the visa officer that this sponsorship is inform of scholarship programs which are usually offered to the indigenous people of their community to enable attain a foreign education and return home to better their people and the locality at large. Having said that, your TR should provide the following documents;

1. A notarized Letter of sponsorship explaining why a scholarship is conferred on you, their intention of sponsoring your education and what the community stands to gain as a result of this sponsorship.
2. Allocation/stipends from the state government.
3. Statement of account.
4. Pictures of your TR and you to show connection.
5. Any related business documents of the TR


I hope this information satisfies your enquiry.

Very satisfied and thanks so much

@Frankrobbn, Boss I greet you. After trying to compress my documents to get the below or 4MB specification most seemed blur but I could not help it because I had just one day to submit my application or risk my profile to expire. I hope it's not a red flag to submit BLUR documents ?

MadeMan01:
@Frankrobbn1 how are you?
Please what does "Not Applicable" signify for background check

Please can you confirm when you submitted this application and if IRCC has at any point requested for any additional documents from you during the course of processing your visa?

Background check: Not Applicable (NA1) - can only be seen once you submit an application to IRCC and receive an acknowledgement email. Sometimes as on a very rare phenomenon this status will generally not change until your medical results are reviewed and validated.
