Winter 2020 had ed so I'll assume you meant 2021. Regardless, your best option is to search for the schools online yourself and tailor your search to your purposed course of study and affordability.

Good morning Everyone. Please has the embassy sent a mail inviting them anyone for medical from March 18 till now?

Something must be wrong somewhere. When you last had your biometrics in 2014, was it not 10 years validity? If so, you still have 4 more years

My thoughts exactly unless the Biometrics letter is automated message once an application is submitted.
I will wait and see

Please I am still waiting for response on this.

I am also waiting to receive an email to that effect. I feel that they're assuming this is not the right time to ask anyone to do a medical examination because they may not be able to for what happens in between

Hello Eveyone,

I have been getting emails about which documents I submitted. I have decided to just put it here for the general public.

Documents submitted;

- School Offer letter for September from University of Windsor for Masters program (2 years). I think there’s a luck with this university. People usually get their study permits granted when they’ve applied to this university.

- Proof of Tuition Payment ( I paid in full)

- Proof of Accommodation ( I already rented a two bedroom flat and got a contract sent to me)

- Undergraduate Transcripts & degree certificate

- CV (I wrote a standard one)

- Self Sponsored so I submitted my bank statements with about 40m. Note that there was no lodgement of funds.

- My landed property documents

- Statement of purpose/LOE (Outsourced)

- Other ing documents like business registration certificate, award certificates,etc

- Of course port, birth certificate and other mandatory documents.

- Previous Issued Visas

I did not use any agent for the second application

Let me know if you have any questions
I will answer when I can

If I anything else, I will input

Hello Everyone,
I have been a silent reader but just created an to share my testimony.

1st Online Submission : September 10th 2019
Correspondent Letter : October 15th 2019
Refusal Letter : October 15th 2019

2nd Online Submission : February 12th 2020
Original port Request Letter : March 6th 2020
Visa Stamped : awaiting because I just sent my port on Monday
Resumption Date : September 2020

Here’s my story,
I initially applied for a study permit last year. I was denied but I didn’t care to reapply because I thought I would just focus on Australia or US.

However, things changed and I just made up my mind to leave Nigeria come rain , come sunshine. I was among the people that got affected by that lagos fire in December 2019. I lost almost everything I had and the government till today has not done anything or compensated us.

Anyway, a friend of mine told me about reapplying but I brushed it away. Told him I’m tired of Canada and their wahala. He told me to just try again and I should check Nairaland for tips etc. That’s how everything I started.
My university accepted to defer my ission for this years entry. I reapplied with the same exact documents. I just printed new statement. Then I rewrote my SOP & LOE. There was this twitter guy that helped me with the SOP & LOE.

Everything else I did myself with the tips from here. I did not pay any agent at all! Agent ruined me last time. When I got my medical request , i didn’t even take it serious or rushed it. Infact I already lost hope and excitement. I still went ahead to do it and just believed that highest it will just be lost money nothing more.

To make this short, please keep trying.
I just want to tell everyone here to not GIVE UP.
Even if you have been denied , try again if you can. Do not use agent if possible because they will just fill rubbish for you on the form.

Do it yourself. It is time consuming but worth it.
Make sure your SOP is standard. Don’t write stories that touch for them. Straight the point and concise. I will my documents later
I applied to Uni of Windsor. Paid all my fees etc . Two years Msc. Over 40m in my personal and showed property documents. I believe that at times they just deny someone automatically like its computer based I dunno.

Just don’t give up please
God bless

Cousin application was refused yesterday due to:
* family ties
* personal asset & finan. Circumstances.

Surprisingly his mother and two siblings who applied with him for the purpose of accompany him, their application was not refused, but still read 'Submitted'
Is there any hope for his mum and two siblings getting approved after the principal applicant's application was refused?

Send an email to the Kenya, Nairobi immigration office requesting for the status/update on your application and asking if they require any further documents from you that could expedite the processing of your Visa. Don't forget to mention that your application for a study permit has exceeded the standard processing times for Nigerian applicants. Furthermore, even if your application is approved now, you will also face delay in port submission as the VFS office is currently lockdown until further notice.

It will end in praises.

Proceed with your plans boss, check for designated institutions in Canada that offers a program related to your core area in the last few years. Along the line, if you need further assistance, don't hesitate to ask questions here and we will be happy to advise you appropriately.

You're at the right place.... However, it is important to know that you can't secure a master's program with a HND certification. Your best bet is opting for a post graduate diploma/certificate (PGD/C). Please don't
make the mistake of applying and wasting your hard earned application fees to any of the Universities in Canada for a masters program.

What type of immigration program did they apply for? Sadly, when the principal applicant (PA) application is already refused, the rest of the accompanying dependants will also be automatically refused based on same ground.

Keep the house posted on the outcome of the rest of application.

You went through the paper route. You will have to wait until the COVID-19 pandemic virus has completely reduced/is no more before you can have your port back.

Accept my congratulations by faith. Keep the house posted on the outcome of your application.

Submit your application and hope for the best. The process might turn out to favour you even if the visa officers at the Canadian embassy are strict when scrutinizing Nigerian applications. In the end, pray for grace.

The SOA is meant to be submitted alongside with other ing documents. You DON'T forward SOA to the embassy at the time of application submission. You only do so if they requested for it during the time of processing your application. More importantly, SOA is valid for a month, so make every move to be sure your application is submitted within a month of having printed the SOA.

I hope this information is clear enough.

It will end in praises.

You're at the right place.... Check Centennial College for their diploma programs. They offer tuition free applications for international students. Meanwhile, you can't find any application free schools for an undergraduate program (BSc) to be precise.

You DON'T have to sign the IMM forms, after the successful ing of files into their various sections, you will be prompted to use your full name as written on your port to electronic sign and transmit your application.
