Greetings gurus and angels in the house. Please, help me with suggestions that can make my application good.

Issue 1:
I'm to embark on PhD program, and I got CAD 21k scholarship (my tuition is 7k, so i have 14k for expenses), but my naira account has almost nothing because within 2018 to August 2020, I was in China for my MSc. However, I received a scholarship there in USD and had some cash savings to the tone of #2 million naira.

QUESTION: Will it be a good idea to lodge this N2m into my naira account and explain how the money came about in a LOE, backing it up with my MSc scholarship award letter? I discussed this with a friend before who said since I'm no longer on that scholarship, I should not upload the award letter. How then do I explain where a sudden 2 million came from?

Issue 2:
I am married (for 5 years) and now have a 6-month old child. My wife is self employed (does sales) but with no CAC registration.

QUESTION: How can I show that my wife can support the family at my absence?

Issue 3: Is just a survey plan enough for a landed property that's been developed/built to a level?

Issue 4: Is it possible to use a non-relation as a 3rd-party sponsor? Say a family friend, a politician or public office holder?

I will be glad to hear your informed suggestions. Thank you.

Btw, my SOP is written and I will be glad if can get someone to vet it for me. God bless!

So because you are the type to eat and move on, you dont believe in people that dedicate their life to giving back?
The first day I called Frank, he didnt even act weird about how I got his number.
He replies my messages at night and early mornings.
He calls me back when I give him missed calls.
I have never met him and he has no reason whatsoever to give me audience.

But this is who he is! So respect him for his personality.



AIP have really turned you into something else.

Good evening everyone

Please I need your help
I submitted my application last week and just 3days after I received a mail that I have been refused due to the fact that they are not satisfied with me leaving canada after my study and also funds ...because my sponsor who is my Uncle gave me a treasury bill of 20m which will mature next year...although I have paid my first term fee
And now my uncle want to add his company account to it
Hope that will be fine

Please help me

Hello Luckymama,

If you're apologizing tender it with remorse feeling not because you will be disconnected from the thread.

Learn to talk when in the public domain because few people of such are here in Canada bring bad name to all Nigerians. Ensure you words pass through the three gates before you make your utterances.

Frank let the sleeping dog lie.

Na so bad people dey spoil people with good conscience that they'll not help those in need.

I pray dis should be fulfilled in your life James 1v5 ----So if any one of you is lacking in wisdom, let him keep asking God,+ for he gives generously to all and without reproaching,*+ and it will be given him.

Chocs:
Hello NwanyiOkpa,

Your case has been bothering me. I’ve been checking to see if I could see what went wrong. Since your cousin is your sponsor, did you submit his payslips? Or his business registration docs if he’s self-employed? Basically, did you prove his source of funds?

NwanyiOkpa:


my blood brother is my sponsor.

i submitted his business CAC documents

NwanyiOkpa:


Bank statements of sponsor(13million)
Necessary IMM forms
Passport
Sponsor's birth cert
LOE of 2 pages
Employment letter
Recommendation letter
Affidavidt of sponsorship
Affidavit of good behavior
Letter of sponsorship
Birth cert of sponsor
Admission letter
First semester tuition receipt
Police character cert


Note: Those are the only documents i submitted and my refusal was based on Finance as stated in the screenshot.


my GCMS note would tell us more.

fratermathy:



Hi Gbadeolu1,

Congratulations on your admission and your funding offer. Your funding offer is strong enough to get you through the study permit application process. With regard to your questions, I will try to answer them from my perspective.

1. If you are applying from Nigeria, you may have to actually deposit the balance from your scholarship in your Naira account and attach the letter in order to show the VO the source of the money. The VO wouldn't question it because you already have funding and that answers most questions concerning your proof of finance.

2. If your wife has a business (even without a CAC), simply say so and then possibly upload her SoA to prove that she can take care of herself and your child in your absence. You can consolidate this by also indicating your desire to send her a monthly stipend from your funding money. Try to be specific with this amount. IRCC requires you to show proof of C$10,000 for living expenses but you have C$14,000. You can commit $2000 per year to support your family, in addition to what your wife makes. This would make sense.

3. A survey plan and perhaps deed of transfer or sales receipt. Basically, you have strong home ties with your family. The landed property only consolidates this and makes your claim stronger.

4. Please, do not use any third party sponsor. You are a PhD study permit applicant. You are also sponsoring yourself with the funding money you received. Don't complicate your application with too many documents and seemingly "desperate" maneuvers.

All the best!

NwanyiOkpa:



thanks

Luckymama:


Madam please it is enough. You jump in to insult without stopping to think.

As Frank is perfect and can never make any mistake, please make sure you do exactly what he was telling that other lady to do which caused all this problem.

As they have rejected you for the first time (which has happened to most people), please make sure you don’t apply for any GCMS notes. Don’t bother to apply a second time o. Just go straight to judicial review. After all you can afford it and you will “recoup your money in a few months”.

Lekiboboe:


So sorry about ur Refusal ma'am,

I think ur GCM note will be a POINTER for you on how to address the refusal reasons

Do check out the LOE (tackling refusal reasons) in the link below (Video), it tackled some things that has to do with Refusal Based on Finances, am sure you gonna get some insights after checking it out and also check out some links on
Common Refusal Reasons & how to tackle them

All the best in your next application NwanyiOkpa,
Nothing do you nwanyi oma

JustMellow:


Hello Jamesobedbaisel,

In your next application, do as the VO as stated in the notes by including a sworn affidavit, Consent or Undertaking from your parents for such sponsorship intent, Letter of Sponsorship (properly highlighting why such intent and the prospect benefit). Also declare the number of dependents he currently have.

It may be in your best interest if you liquidate the fxd into your account and get a letter to support the inflow of the liquidated cash into your personal account. Do well to also demonstrate how you intend to meet the cost of your expensive education.

In this vein, what were the roles of your parents and is there any specific reason why they can't stand as either the sponsor while your cousin a cosponsor? You have to bring them into the picture so you can be able to demonstrate that without your cousin's funds, you are not financially incapacitated as there is a reliable source of funds belonging to your parents and you.

All the best

Hoverboy27:
Once in a while I read through travel threads just to see what’s happening around the world.
This evening I decided to read this thread and I saw a battalion of people attacking a lady @luckymama simply because she voiced her opinion about a highly regarded person here.
I believe that there is freedom of expression and people should not have to feel intimidated because their opinion is not accepted. Almost all the comments are not even because of the so called “business” claim she made against frank, but more of “so after he helped you”, or “because you have gotten AIPP”. Nigerians seriously He helped her & so? Is he God? How many times has God reminded us of everything he has done for us? Did someone not also help him during his time? I don’t understand the sudden harsh comments towards her. Is it everyone that frank has coached that got visa? No! Lucky mama just has grace. No matter how many of you are regretting that you once congratulated her for getting AIPP, it doesn’t change anything. She has gotten it & approval will follow soon. So stop all these attacks & making her feel down because she voiced her opinion. Besides there’s always truth in every claim. There’s no way she will come out with such opinion if she has never felt such energy from him or his perspective. I hate when I see people throwing stones at somebody because their opinion defers! No body is God. If you help somebody and they did not come back to say thank you, don’t feel offended but rejoice that you have done good. How many people came back to thank Jesus after getting healed? But did he stop healing? No! Did his disciples attack others wanting healing? No! Please and please let’s learn to respect people’s opinion & ignore unnecessary ones. You frank disciples should not attack anyone that opposes him without fair hearing. At the end of the day, his blessings will not stop coming regardless of anything or anyone. Godbless you all

Let me bounce out

Luckymama:


Even if you were the one who paid my tuition fees and packaged my visa application, are you God? Does that mean you are perfect and can’t make a mistake? Does that mean you can’t be corrected?

All I said is that we should give full disclosure. I still stand by what I said - it is not normal to advise people to spend over a million naira on judicial review when you have not exhausted all possibilities.

For judicial review to be the first line of advice to someone who has not even received GCMS notes for their first rejection is unfair. Assuming the person has applied several times and is still rejected then you advice such then that makes sense.

And for all of you to suddenly appear out of nowhere to start insulting me and trying to shut me up simply shows that I have a point. You people should sha be doing things with a conscience. People listen to you and make life decisions. Don’t carry that load lightly.

Good morning my people.. Hope you're staying safe?
I did a police character certificate last year October. My question is if I can use it for re-application? Thanks

Patty03:
Wow! It truly works! I scheduled upfront medical appointment for 9th sept, but got medical request in the morning of that 9th. I went ahead with the upfront. No update on my profile even after raising webforms n emails.
I sent both d medical request and e-medical slip just 9pm last night to d 3 email address, checking around 9am now, my profile has been updated to 'medical passed'
Thanks to the person that shared this new trick.

Olayinkaji:
I just said I should chip in here too, if possible let us try to do our application by ourselves and limit ourselves in using agents. I have made a mistake that cost me denial, and the agent wanted to charged me 80k for gcms notes (thanks to posts from Frankrobbn and others that its just around $20 max, ) that made me know otherwise.

Just an advise to everyone.

It will end in praise.
