Chukwubuikexo:
Your first question is a bit confusing

Your POF seems to be in order

As for your client information, you should add your passport bio data page, academic transcripts and certificates, university letter of admission, SOP, birth certificate.....

Hello, please how long does it take for Vfs to acknowledge that they have received your passport. I sent mine via DHL and It has being delivered, but Haven’t gotten any update or acknowledgement from VFS.

Should I be expecting any or Will only get a notice when it ready ?

Thanks.

Hello owenizes,

Getting your study permit does not depend on your brother being a permanent resident.

Order your gcms notes for your previous refusals and see what the visa officer is concerned about. Work on them and then reapply.

You can order your gcms motes from outside Canada (20 cad) or your brother can order it for you from within Canada (5 cad)


All the best

hello all, my younger brother has been in Canada for since 2009 and has never visited home. I applied twice 2014 for a student visa and was denied. Though he didn't have his PRV the period i applied. Now he has his PRV, what are my chances?

Hello, before the gurus come, from wat I know, having a sibling in Canada ( both PR/Citizen) doesn't in anyway influence your visa outcome. In most cases, having a sibling somehow raises suspicion on your true intent, whether study or immigration. You may get refusal based on time to Canada and maybe compelled to remain in Canada due to its incentives.
Having a sibling who's a PR/Citizen only adds points in EE.
On your refusals, kindly order for GCMS note to know exactly what you need to tackle, and know that the difficulty level of getting a SP in 2014 and now isn't the same.
So double up and present your application well.

Lastly, kindly read through this thread to get all the hacks you may need.

Good morning,
I don't think there's ànythiñg to be scared about. Worst outcome is that you will be contàcted to provide the outstanding. That can only result in a delayed closeout. So what ever be the case, the next call is from them. Keep the docs ready in case they call for it.

Good morning all.
I just go an offer of admission but my supervisor is saying no funding for the two years. It's a MASC research program. Though he said it during my application but I thought he could get funding along the way but now he's even telling me that for the two years I should be prepared to sponsor myself. I don't have enough funding. Should I look for another school or what. Please I need urgent advice

Kunledavidz:
@Frankrobbn1
@JustMellow
@Qudkom
@Chocs
@Anon123

Please help, I want to re-submit my application by next week

My GCMS file dropped yesterday and the reason for my rejection was stated.

I applied for PGC in Global Business Management @ Centennial College though I have HND in Statistics and also ICAN chartered accountant with over 6 years of working experience. Since I can't apply for Masters Degree except doing PGC because I actually wanted to do an MBA in Business Administration.

I was refused based on the attached documents.

I want to reapply, please any information or direction to go about this will be appreciated.

Thank you

Hello Kunledavidz,

As it stands based on the concerns of the VO and your intent to study in Canada, you have two ways to approach the situation.

1. Restructure and/or improve on your study plan with strong and clear agrument to why the program/course choice is a likely study progression and/or career advancement.

2. Change your course to something more related to your work experience and clearly identify the ways it would improve your knowledge/skill-set and/or advance your professional career in the multifarious economic society in your home country.

You just have to point out the limitations prior before now that has been a continuous challenge in advancing your career professionally. Intimate the knowledge of the VO by given reasons why the prospect course would be remedy that can cure the shortcomings of your already attained certificate, knowledge or professional work (environment).

All he best

Maybe you find out if fanshawe will allow that, because I will appreciate a lower rate but it seems it must be flywire.

Check your mail, I have replied your PM

Bro, I have replied your PM.

OliviaPretty9:
.please House, can a Nigerian in Sweden doing Masters(presently) Apply for a college program (that relates to his/her job of more than 7yrs) in Canada?

Hello OliviaPretty9,

Yes, it is possible but can also be a pitfall if there is limited information or reasons why going for a program below the academic grid of the recently (about to) completed Master program. This may be an area that could likely be the toughest challenge in your application.

Other options are a second Master or Ph.D though not all Masters graduate are willing to go for a Ph.D due to individual reasons, I believe so is applicable for you. I think you should also set your mind at a second Master except if the first Master isn't related to your work experience and/or you're certain you can use the PGD/C to make a solid argument that your reasons for the program choice is to cover certain independent topics or study area(s) in the about to complete Master which also would be a strong support in your workplace in Sweden if your combine the two certificates...

All the best

Sirromey:
Good morning Everyone I emailed the Nairobi immigration office on Tuesday and I got response today. I want to ask is this a generic reply ?

Yes, it is.

Eilenora:
Hello. I also sent a mail to them to which I got a response this morning. Witrh what I gather, if your school (like ours) isnt on the DLI list with an approved covid readines splan, u probably wont get PPR. Their response copied below:
Dear Applicant,



Starting October 20, 2020, travel of asymptomatic international students who have the appropriate documents to enter Canada and whose DLI is on the list of institutions with approved COVID-19 readiness plans in place are considered to be non-discretionary and non-optional, unless there is evidence that they are clearly coming to Canada for a discretionary or optional purpose, such as tourism.



You can find out more about this on: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/2020/10/update-on-travel-restriction-exemptions-for-international-students.html



Kindly be informed that our aim is to process your application in priority and all efforts are being made to keep the processing time as short as possible.



We thank you for your patience and understanding in this regard.


So I guess we just wait until when Fanshawe's name is published.

It is well o.

Hello Eilenora,

I think some applicants got PPR without their school been on the list.

All the best

HorlarJP:
Please Fams, what are the chances of a student visa given after doing everything right and correctly.

There is still no chances.

i think the ones that got ppr on monday or tuesday morning all saw their schools on the updated dli list when it was released on tuesday afternoon

kristalfoods:
@Justmellow

Many thanks for your kind response. Though the internship is suppose to be in my department in my school but I will heed your advice to forgo and play safe.

Once again thank you

Hello Kristalfoods,

It is only with an evidence or proof of internship from your school that can guarantee your entry by January. If you didn't apply for a co-op permit along with your study permit, I still don't think you're eligible for the internship.

Usually, its rarely to see a program with an internship at the beginning of its start and before orientations and/or course registration.

I think you should speak with your school international advisor and your department head.

All the best

Amen!!!!!!!!!

Thanks so much JustMellow, i do appreciate

Hello Owenizes,

There is still no chance. You should work on meeting the requirements and as well show a solid home ties.

Conversely, depending on your age, work experience and other factors; if you can simulate your CRS score (via the EE route), you can claim 15 points for sibling.

Hello Louisa4luv,

It depends on your financial situation. If you can look for a way to get around the required funds that can cover your study cost, it may be advised to grab the admission with two hands.

It sn't necessarily a guarantee though but an M.sc program can help you show clear study intent and genuineness because it isn't easy to get in.

You can accept it while waiting or applying to other schools. BTW what school is this?!

All the best

Congratulations Honorable AY on your PPR

1) No you can't take it to VFS office (Lekki) in person, even if it's the place you did your Biometrics

You have to go to DHL office (Its reliable)

There might be other branches in Lagos though, you can google & check for that .

And take note, the DHL Office @ Nahco ,MMIA , Lagos don't courier this type of documents reason is ,they only deal with documents going overseas ,not documents going to Domestic Locations like VFS, Lekki.

2) Yes you would be charged

The courier fee is #1,650,
but since you are in Lagos, in case of any miscellaneous/unforseen circumstances, hold more money

When you get to this DHL office at ISOLO, Lagos, the Security man would give you a form to fill.

I appreciate the feedback.

Please which of the attached pictures is the Biometrics confirmation slip to be included when dispatching ones passport to VFS?

olasubomy:


I think you will have to use a courier, i know DHL is very reliable and you would be able to track the movement of your passport realtime. You can pay addtional charge for insurance of your passort with the courier if you are concerned about the safety of your passprt but i am sure your passport will be well handled.
