Hi please what of someone that did not do biometrics in Nigeria for the first application?
I was outside Nigeria when I did my first application in 2019 and was rejected,my second application now is Nigeria,please if my port is requested how do I go about the biometrics slip and I have even misplaced it

Timm89:


Yes, I attached the transfer reciept.

For receiving money from your father, the document to attach is a gift deed as a sign of his commitment or .

A receipt, is issued as evidence of payment for a service or an item. So, if you called it a receipt on your SOP, most of these Canadian visa officers won't interpret it as what you meant on your SOP.

Hello Fogechi

You are good to go as regards what you put down her for your POF..

Visa approval isn't limited to POF, so make sure other areas are okay as well..

It will end in praise..

Peace

Good afternoon friends, hope we are doing well. Pls I need help on this email I send to Supervisors to get a school in Canada, I have sent them emails, but no response and some deadlines have past. I dnt know if my email to them is in correct order, I also send my CV, TRANSCRIPT AND CERTIFICATE. Below is one of the letters I sent, I also posted my CV. Pls gurus in the house, pls help me ��

Dear Prof. Fred Gaidies

My name is Okafor Onyinye Augusta, a graduate of Physics and Industrial Physics, with second class honours (upper division, CGPA 3.84) From Nnamdi Azikiwe University Awka, Nigeria. I am a candidate for the MSc Earth science program at the University of Carleton to begin in Fall 2022. The department assigned you to me as my Supervisor. The purpose of this e-mail is to enquire about the availability of masters graduate student positions in your lab.

I am interested in the research you are conducting on the kinetics of rock forming processes like nucleation, crystal growth and chemical diffusion and how these processes contribute to the mineral content, mineral chemistry and texture of a rock. The basis of my interest in your research is due to my scientific interest in hydrocarbon exploration, and how these hydrocarbons build up in rocks (mostly sedementary rocks). Your research interest in the spatial distribution of mineral grains in rocks would provide me with informations about the rock and fluid properties, and 3D seismic images, all of which are used to develop 2D and 3D maps and models of the subsurface and the distribution of petroleum resources, and to calculate volumes of oil and natural gas that exist in different areas. I currently run a ed petroleum company : REHOBOTH INVESTMENT AND PETROLEUM SERVICES LIMITED, and the Service I carry out is to source Diesel (AGO) from Depots and suppliers and deliver it to the end s(Hotels, Schools, hospitals, and banks). Working with you as my Supervisor will help me achieve my dreams of growing my petroleum company into an exploration and production company. I believe working with you would expose me to all I need to know about hydrocarbon exploration from rocks. I look forward to ing the petroleum company over there in Canada and thereafter establish my own company, thereby contributing to the energy sector of the country

I have attached my CV, CERTIFICATE and TRANSCRIPT for your consideration. I look forward to hearing positively from you as the deadline for submission is near (February 1st 2022). Thank you for taking the time to read my e-mail.

Kind regards,

OKAFOR ONYINYE AUGUSTA

In addition to what Hon. Osemigho has said, work on your CV and make it an ACADEMIC CV Standard

Cos on your Academic CV,
- You have no Research Interests (focus) mentioned
- Your Research Experience as a degree holder was not detailed (final year project)
- Professional Summary is for a Résumé, not for an Academic Cv
- Address should be your town , state and Country e.g Ammasoma, Bayesla State, Nigeria
-High school information is not needed on an Academic Cv, your Degree is enough
- Your Technical skills in the field of petroleum geology wasn't mentioned. Softwares you make use of in your field wasn't mentioned
- References you need at least 3
and some other things you need to address to have a well packaged and detailed Academic CV.

Visit the link,(scroll down to see the attachment) there is a well detailed Academic CV by a Nigerian PostDoc fellow at UBC, Canada (Dr. OLUMUYIWAAYO), use the structure of his ACADEMIC CV to revamp yours, your Academic CV should be in PDF and let it be named in your name e.g SEMEDO POCOTUA VASQUEZ_CV

There are some beneficial info in this same link you can apply to your field of discipline and research interests (research focus)

So guys, here is my story.

I have lost a great deal of money paid to agents in the past to secure visa for me, most recently was last year June when I naively paid 285k to an agent to secure ission for me in a Canadian college. It was after this disaster that I stumbled on this thread. I regretted my life and beat myself up for a long time.

Afterwards, I began to read this thread from the beginning of part 18 till I caught up with part 19. I gained a huge amount information from people's timeliness shared, but most importantly, I met a wonderful individual on this thread who'd turn out to be a partner in progress in this journey.



Like always, it has ended in praise for me.

It was after this disaster that I stumbled on this thread. I regretted my life and beat myself up for a long time.

We both got offers for a 1yr PGD program at Cambrian College, but realized afterwards that it was more convenient to go for a 2yrs program because of the PGWP thing. We had to abandon that offer and apply to other schools, but eventually settled for Lambton college, Toronto, May 2022 intake.

Due to sudden unforseen financial challenges, Paying for my compulsory first term tuition fee before the deadline given became a huge challenge that kept me up at night. I prayed like never before and God came through and brought help my way.

Submitting my visa application became another challenge because I didn't know exactly how to package my application as a self sponsored applicant. My profile was kinda complex and my story was very complicated. My friend Tobe1997 convinced me to give it to the renowned Frankrobbn to tie together, as it was his specialty. We hooked up and the man showed his acute knowledge of the process of study visa application. Because of his extremely busy schedule, it was stressful chasing him upandan to get his attention to my application, but as soon as I got it, my story suddenly became simple and straightforward.

I submitted my application on 21st November via the new portal, did my upfront medical and biometrics the next day. Upfront medical was updated to ed on 25th November while the biometrics delayed to be updated on the portal till 7th December 2021 after I raised webform and mailed IRCC about it.

During the waiting period, I prayed, fasted, did midnight prayers, booked mass, did everything I could to show God that I was totally depending on him to complete this project as I had done what I could do as a human. I lost faith sometimes, but his mercies always prevailed.

On the 18th of January 2022, my friend received her ppr while I received mine 10 days after hers. My detailed documents submitted are below:

Applicants personal documents
1. College Unconditional Official Letter of ission,
2. Tuition deposit receipt (from the College)
3. Copy of my Birth Certificate,
5. Copy of West African Examinations Council Senior School Certificate (WAEC),
6. Copy of my International port Bio data page,
7. Copy of my family picture (dad, Siblings and I)
8. Statement of Purpose.
9. NYSC discharge certificate
10. Degree certificate
11. Transcripts
12. Reference Letter from my hometown union
13. Landed property documents in Nigeria (Deed of assignments and Survey plans)
14. Proof of rental payment from tenants (rental receipts)
15. Lease agreement for landed property


Applicant's employment/financial documents
1. Letter of Introduction from my employer.
2. Study leave approval letter.
3. Six (6) months Statement of (Personal/salary ) - N21M normal bank statement
4. Promotion letter
5. Work ID card
6. Resume
7. Business Registration Certificate of my business
8. Particulars of the sole proprietorship of the business
9. Previous employment documents
10. Reference Letter from my business clients

My dad was one of my strong hometies, but I unfortunately lost him this January while waiting for PPR. It seemed like it was shaping up to be a bad year, but God showed up and rescued me.

This whole visa process has taught me so much about prayers and dependability on God, there's nothing he cannot do. Fasting and prayers works folks! Trust in God and there's nothing he cannot do for you. My study permit approval is the most improbable of all because I wasn't the most qualified, I wasn't even qualified. God just qualified me and made me eligible.

I requested for gcms on the 5th of January, mailed like 4 MPs in Toronto, only one accepted to help enquire from IRCC on my behalf. She gave me from IRCC this Tuesday that my eligibility review was ongoing, but as at then it hadn't been updated on my portal. Meanwhile, I started mailing Abuja, Lagos, Nairobi and London like 10 times daily from the beginning of January after my application got to 6 weeks. I'd schedule my mails on my email app for every hour from 6am till 2pm Nigeria time, and they'll just deliver automatically at the top of every hour. The responses were always the generic ones, but I didn't care. I'd send webform via the new webform link in between from time to time. It seemed like the mails weren't yielding any thing, but I was encouraged to continue. This Thursday, I saw that my eligibility review had been updated on my portal, I went back and doubled down on my prayers that night, and then scheduled another 10 mails each to just Abuja and Nairobi every hour against Friday. By the time the 8th mail had delivered by 1pm, I received 2 mails from IRCC and also from their Abuja office that there's a message sent to my portal. At that point, I was in the middle of a serious meeting at the office and my hands were shaking to open my portal, I ran to the toilet and lo and behold the beautiful messages of correspondence and ppr were seated pretty on the portal. I didn't know what I felt. I pinched myself to wake up, quickly urinated to know if I will wake up, but it was all reality. I couldn't contain my joy. After all the sleepless nights, worries and all, God has crowned it all with success.

I am eternally grateful to you all on this platform for the encouragement and information shared freely. God bless you. For those still waiting for their good news, keep trusting, there's nothing impossible for God to do.

Like always, it has ended in praise for me.


Wowww. This is so touching. Congratulations and may your Father’s soul Rest In Peace
