Having issues with a cousins application
Please could someone assist? Tried changing her name, keep sending same messages

Email me…….. [email protected]

KC23:
Congratulations!!! Your approval was really fast. I guess showing enough POF is always a huge plus. Did you make any tuition deposit before you applied?

I am in the process of applying for my study permit. I am also self sponsored and can conveniently show POF to cover the tuition and living expenses for 2yrs but just worried how to convince the VO about the 2 years PGC (1+1 option) after completing a UK Masters in 2019. Could you be so kind to share your SOP (I specifically want to see how you drafted the section about defending your program choice of 2yrs PGC).

Thanks.

Yes! Self sponsoring——— Sorry 4 d late response

dbeautyful:

:Dyou go throw party once your PPR drop o
Na secret palace we go go

U wan make that Zulu babe finish d guy POF abi?

nat138:


You can't renew your port if it has more than 6 months validity on it. You should be issued a visa for the duration of your course and you renew your port at the appropriate time. ###If it gives you peace of mind, print out the port renewal guidelines from NIS and tender at point of entry when you get into the country####, I guess the actual student visa is issued at the point of entry (the stamp you get in your port before you arrive is a single entry visa to enable you get into the country).

Thank you profoundly 4 d enlightenment.
Pls, kindly throw more light on d ##

CentennialGuy:
Funny enough, just checked again now. It's been updated to . I've been checking obsessively today.

CentennialGuy:
Congratulations Bro. I got medical request on March 8 and did it on the same day you did yours at IOM. I was also expecting it to be updated to around March 22 but no update yet. Seeing this timeline now, I don dey worry small.

Yea, I did @ IOM Abuja

Just like some pple mentioned here, u can’t predict IRCC… I feel u will get all @ once.
Have faith bro….. God that did it for me nd others, will also do it for u…. I await your success story here

pufframmy:
thanks
hope u can help incase of SOP

I would try my best sir!

BellefilleOma:
Good afternoon nairalanders
There's something i would like to ask because I don't understand the process. How does one know if he or she has been approved for a visa? Does receiving biometrics validity letter mean one has been approved?

A correspondent letter will b sent to u

Also, check attached

Taiyejenny:

Congratulations dear , pls what’s your program length and how much did you show as pof

Mine is a 2-year PGC course.
I showed POF by printing my 3 statements for the past 1 year and also, sent bank reference letter for the various s.

Hello house.
Pls, I wish to ask a question concerning someone coming 4 a 2-year study in Canada, with a port expiring next year September.

Is it advisable to renew the port here in Nigeria nd summit to IRCC or renew in Canada?

Heard IRRC doesn’t give visa beyond port's validity date

Pls, best advice

Malone122:
you can renew it in Canada since it expires next year

Thanks. But won’t that affect the d length of visa one will get from IRCC?

Please, any idea how many Visa/Permit years IRCC issues 4 a 2-year course?

Congratulations �…. More PPR loading

My application was exactly 3 months gbako and significant; i started sending more than 50 mails daily to IRCC excluding daily webforms and MP's(just a week roughly). I started this like a week to the completion of the 3 months (according to IRCC's calendar but to me, 3 months was completed last week)

At this juncture guys, what i will say is your application is unique to yourself alone, don't let anyone confuse you, have Faith in it, eat study visa YouTube videos daily and every night like me, follow international students on line (telegram, i.g,...), follow latest Canada schooling/traveling news, do your assignment as i did mine and God crown me my 2% making it 100% perfect, without Him it can never be perfected, but """Faith without Work is Dead""", that is it.

And i will also advise, tackle every areas in your SOP, don't take chances and Pray daily. I said i won't stop praying from 22nd Dec till the day of reception, yesterday and now we still keep on Praying.

WHAT WORKS FOR OTHERS MIGHT NOT WORK FOR YOU BUT YOU CAN LEARN FROM IT AS I HOPE YOU'VE LEARNT FROM THIS.
DO YOUR ASSIGNMENT THROUGH YOUR INTENSE RESEARCH.
BELIEVE +VELY
