Thanks, a lot has changed recently then with the intro of PAL. Thanks.

I believe you are an educated individual who can read and write. You don’t need a YouTuber looking for followers to interpret a simple instruction for you, especially since most of them are not immigration lawyers. You can apply for a student visa from within Canada on a visitor visa. You simply select 'No' to those conditions, and it allows you to apply from inside Canada. I have seen someone apply and get approved, and another get rejected, with the rejected applicant regretting it because they ended up spending much more than if they had applied from outside Canada. So personally, I don’t encourage it, as not all applications are approved. However, as of today, you can apply for a student visa while in Canada on a visitor visa if you have your Letter of Enrollment (LOE), (PAL), and proof of funds (POF), though approval is not guaranteed!!

Hello ,

A lot of us are still waiting even for applications submitted before April. Some had mentioned a 178-day wait period but i have seen people including myself waiting for almost a year.
Bukolab99: 7:06pm On Oct 29, 2024

If you have USA visa, your London processing will be faster, otherwise just forget reply this year.

I gained ission in canada uni regina but haven't paid any school fees yet, because I can't start now but can I use that as my purpose of visit or I need to get an invitation letter from them?

Because I have been changing my course, as I don't know which particular course to settle for.

Pls house, I need valid required documents that I needed, to submit as ing docs for tourist visa. How to get flight itinerary also.

Note: I want to submit my tourist visa application and, purpose of visit, to have one on one counselling with a course advisor and tour the school environment. Does this make any sense though?

I will appreciate your response, thanks all

How do I go about flight reservation and tour reservation?

Then I don't have any tenancy agreement because it's our house, what do I use in place of that.

I will really appreciate your response. Thanks.
angie88: 8:14am On Oct 30, 2024
To my best of knowledge, u cant use dat as a basis for visit. This is because the school would not give u an invite, they have various channels of communication with their international issions team which u would avail urself d opportunity of using any one to seek advice from the ission counsellor, rather than spending millions just to come and seek advise.

But what can I use because I don't have any in Canada, can I apply for any conference then, add visit to the school and its environment then maybe say Easter holiday with the kids by April 2025
Chibudollar: 9:36am On Oct 30, 2024
Good morning house, please some of my friends used an agent to process their Canada visa, did first payment and so around 2 months+ ago but they haven't yet been called for biometrics. Please is that normal?
dubaiboy1: 11:44am On Oct 30, 2024
According to my knowledge, you don't need an invite to visit Canada.. A conference booking would be great though but what really matters regardless of what you decide to do is your financial capabilities and home ties.. You can go for a visit, show your itinerary , flight booking, hotel booking and tour bookings but most importantly, prove your home ties.

This is my own opinion.

Thanks so much. I have home ties but how do I get the flight itinerary, flight booking and tour bookings without asking me to pay part of flight ticket?

My own little idea : Make your own itinerary .. It's just like showing your arrival date in Canada and what activities you want to do each day until your departure date ... Book your hotel on booking.com ( free cancellation and payment on arrival options ) but make sure it tallies with your travel dates. .. Book your flight , again just to show your arrival and departure date .. Ethiopia airline would let you hold your flight for free for about 48 hours, all you need is the confirmation, doesn't matter if they cancel it after the 48 hours. and book your tours on getyourguide.com

Again, these are just my own ideas and opinions ... And oh, there is nothing like one on one meeting with your advisor nor school tour ... Either go for the student route or apply for visiting ..

Ok I will just go with the tour bookings and add all other documents. I ed my school for invitation, they asked me to book appointment with my course advisor on zoom.

I just dey laugh since

Just find a virtual USD card , put $5 on it and book your tours .......... Go for tours that can be canceled a day before the tour date . Plenty of them on getyourguide.com . So, what you need the virtual card for is just to hold down your bookings , they won't charge until 2 days or 24 hours to the tour date. I hope this helps , good luck.
