Hello Gurus, please I have some questions and I will appreciate any guidance you can offer me.

I have a bachelors in ing and after NYSC, I practised as an ant for 1 year from 2013 to 2014. However, from 2014 till today, I have worked in marketing and have grown to become a marketing manager. Here is the dilemma, I work 2 jobs - 1 full-time as a marketer and the other as an ant (The ing job is part-time consulting) and I get paid in Dollars, I also get a bonus as well in dollars. This dollar is what I have saved up to be able to pay my school fees for the Canadian school I selected. I want to do a PGCert in Marketing.

1. My proof of funds is USD, do I tell the visa officer that I have 2 jobs where I earn salaries? My fear is, my SOP is saying I don't want to be an ant anymore, I want to work more in marketing but I am still working as an ant. and I cannot lie about the ing job as the narration on each payment is "payment for ant"

2. My marketing job contract clearly states that I want to go for Masters in 2023 and my working hours will be reduced to 20 hours per week to allow me to study upon my return, I will be offered a higher position. But the salary I earn for this role is in Naira and the naira is basically empty. I have less than 200k in it as I spend from it. My question is, do I say that I convert my naira into Dollars to supplement my USD earnings?

Please I will appreciate any guidance. Thank you

I need urgent help pls, I have my ission letter to apply for visa, but I don’t under one of the this demand from visa requirements since December.

That says I should provide the letter of curriculum from my school state that work is a requirement for the completion of my studies

If your course has Co-op work experience stated on the ission letter, Simply the letter again. That's what I did

I don't think you will have any problem, you work two jobs and probably find marketing more interesting than ing, you don't have to lie about your job and does not concern vo which job paid you the money for your pof. My opinion

Is your campus Doon?

Positiveme2020:

sorry about your denial. But I think you have to order your gcms note to find out the exact reason for the denial, this will help you tackle such problem effectively and increase your chances in your next application. Don't just reapply blindly.

Sorry for the refusal

You have to apply for CBSA notes to know why you were denied.

How long is your programme?
How much was the POF?
Are self-sponsored or third party sponsored?
What type of programme is it? Masters or PGC?
what is the course and what do you presently do?
You can answer these so some insights can be shared to you by the house.

fvictop:
I humbly and sincerely request for the gurus assistance and advice here.

I have MSc business istration 2022, HND Mechanical Engineering 2007, No Test of English, 13years work experience as maintenance Technician, married with kids.

Kindly recommend schools and courses with affordable tuition fees and high visa approval.

Japa is the objective not the education though.

You are very funny

Yayy congratulations to you and yours. Same with me PPR today February 4th for my husband, see you on the other side SOWP for me and VV for my baby girl

I have returned to share the good news on behalf of my wife!!!
It's PPR
God came through for us!!

I came to Nairaland in search of direction and guidance. I have been on the journey for ages and no one could help me financially, so I gave up. After a long while close pals that are in Canada advised me that since I can now afford it, I should try and them in Canada. I tried and got ission in 2015/16, but I opted out again considering the fact that I am now married and it will be difficult to school, work, and work extra to care for the family I will be leaving behind. Again, I opted out.

Fast forward to 2021, two of my close pals (same friends) encouraged me to make a move now. They believe that I can comfortably pay the fees now. Well, this time around, I changed the narrative. I applied for my wife to study while I sponsor her.

She got itted and we started looking for information and the best way to get SP. My good friend who persuaded me to start the journey again was there and feeding me with information bit by bit. But because of my person who knows Nairaland as far back as 2007, I fell back here to search for more information. I don't like to be at the mercy of any man. I started digging and reading timelines. I asked questions 2 or 3 times. I also mistakenly mentioned to my friend that I saw a different view from his in Nairaland. This got him mad and started treating me poorly. I got to a point, I felt it was time to do this thing on my own. I didn't him any longer and if he ask me about the process, I just tell him, we are waiting on God. in between, I had good savings, but money is never enough, so I mistakenly asked him and the other of my friend to help with payment of my wife first-semester fee while I kept my money I already saved as POF. I didn't intend to touch it till she leaves. This also caused another bad blood. Two of them turned their back on me w.r.t. money. If you really love your friends, I will advise, you should avoid asking for money from them. Money spoils relationships a lot.

We got itted in March 2022, but we submitted the application in September 2022 because I want to satisfy my conscience that the money we had was well above what is needed.

It's one year program that is to commence in winter 2023. We paid the first-semester fee and showed a POF of over 13mil. After the application, I removed my mind completely till the allotted time for SP finishes before sending webform. This is not to say we were not checking her email. I raised just one webform on the 12th of December 2022 informing IRCC that the allotted time for review (60/90 days) has elapsed. I didn't hear from them on the 12th and 13th, but on the 14th day of December 2022, my wife's email got a new mail. The email address was strictly for this process. So, I hurriedly opened it on my phone and you need to see the joy overflowing in me.

Majority of the documents I gathered as ing documents (i.e. a letter of reference from my company to a letter of reference from where she volunteered) I forgot to . These were key documents, but God proves Himself...

God will not share His glory with any man.

Her Timeline
Upfront Medical: 20th July 2022 at IOM Lagos
Submitted: 13th September 2022
Biometrics: 19th September 2022
Biometrics: ed on 06th October 2022
Background check: 06th October 2022
Medicals ed: 23rd September 2022
Original port Request: 14th December 2022
Review of eligibility: 22nd December 2022
Final Decision: 22nd December 2022
POE: 23rd December 2022

Before I forget, we didn't get any notification via mail or on her IRCC apart from upfront medical ed and Biometrics. every other notification was updated after the Original port Request of 14th December 2022.

Our Covenant highway came earlier than expected.

My final word here to all, everybody's situation is peculiar, though you can have one or two situations that look the same.

To all those waiting, the GOD that did this for us will do for you. Just have faith and believe.

See you all on the other side SOWP and Study Permits for kids.

AskGod07:
Please is there any hope for HND holder in Canada institution? Also is there age limit or study gap?

1. Hope for HND holder? Yes. Apply to a College for a Post graduate certificate or diploma program. I came in with HND as well.
2. Age limit? No. As long as you're able to package your application well.
3. Study gap? Yes & No. Depends on the visa officer reviewing your application. Mine was NO despite not having any additional degree in over 5
years.

Hi, You did not answer the questions I asked, was the application done by an agent?

bullstriker:
Don’t worry; it will not affect the outcome of your application.
Use the link below to access the web form. First, a copy of the new port with an explanation. Then, when you receive a port request, submit the new port and a coloured copy of the old port with an explanation.

Okay thanks a lot brother. The issues is that I even ed the new port as the port. It was in the filling of port number that I wrote the former port number? Should I still go ahead or what do you think, Sir?

Good evening house,

Do children of International student pay school fees in elementary and high school? If yes what's the range please? I want to factor this into my expenses

Is it compulsory an investment certificate for POF must not exceed 6 months? I have an investment certificate that matures in 9 months even though I have paid the tuition and I worry it might affect my application.

Bambi222:


sorry, yes it was

Please you will need CBSA notes to know the details. If you do not have it will not be advisable to reapply.

Is anyone going to Cambrian college here? Or anyone with the ission for October program

Hi Bambi
For your first application did your eligibility start? And how long after eligibility started did they refuse your application?

Use the web form to send a completed IMM 1294. Don’t forget to explain.

Good day house please is 341cad OK to do my calculations for POF

chithec:

Hi Bambi
For your first application did your eligibility start? And how long after eligibility started did they refuse your application?

I feel There is no need to be so bothered about all those eligibility and the rest. They might be working on it but not update on your portal. My application was November 2nd. PPR January 18th but my eligibility did not start and update as completed till January 27th(I believe this was when my port was stamped because I got about 3 VFS emails that day and LOI the next day). My background check was also shown as completed November 4th but also wasn't updated till the same January 27th.
I think from what I have noticed on this thread and my own application: medical update/request is usually the biggest sign that a decision is close. My upfront medical was updated to January 10 and the PPR came 18th. Other timelines are usually similar after medical update/request

No, as far as i know
