Hi. Ang na notice ko lang sa mga 2 year program nila, walang mga co-op mga ito. Most na may co-op, ung mga 3 year program. Ang napansin ko lang din na may co-op ang two year program ung Georgian. Ung healthcare ba na sinasabi mo Practitional Nursing? If that's the case, two year program sya. Sa Georgian 2.5 years. I'm not sure lang sa iba baka may alam sila na may co-op ung practitional nursing, unless na lang ata kumuha ka ng bachelor degree for nursing, perong college or diploma, wait for the reply na lang sa iba na may alam about your concern.

Hello!

My sister and her family are permanent residents, di naman naging bad thing. Nagpakita lang ako ng employment certificates nila ng brother-in-law ko, plus a letter of support (na sakanila ako mag sstay sa duration of my studies) I got my visa naman.

Thanks to those who weighed in on my case!

I'm staying positive but really anxious though coz I already got refused a tourist visa last year - reason being I might not be going back to the PH. When I applied for tourist visa, I had a stable 3-yr job plus our family business is registered under my name. I submitted bank statements, property titles, plus my parents' employment cert and letter of support in Canada. I think - and other people also agree - it may be because I'm single and my whole immediate family is already in Canada. That's why I'm worried about my chances for a Study Permit. Nevertheless, I'm still gonna try.

Do they (VO) also take into consideration your academic record? IELTS?

hi schoolgirl

I think sayo kasi nandito sa phil ang parent mo and only your 2 sisters are abroad. sa case ni jainafel lahat sila nasa Canada na except sa kanya. Bakit hindi ka nalang magpapetition sa parents mo jainafel? Parang mas maganda un.

Hi Sis. Nagka baligtad ka sis, si schoolgirl ang may sister sa Canada and si JainaFel ang lahat ng family nasa Canada. Si schoolgirl may student permit na and multiple TRV na.


@JainaFel: Sis oo nga bakit di nalang sponsorship? Though I know wala ng family sponsorship ngayon except for spouses/commonlaw/dependents/parents and grandparents. Kung single ka pa, balik ka sa school dito sa pinas, through that pwede ka sponsoran ng parents mo. Pero kailangan may work parents mo sa Canada. Kahit above 21 ka na, as long as di ka pa kasal and wala kang common law partner, as long as nag aaral ka pa, consider ka as dependent ng family mo.


Isipin kasi ng VO na di ka na babalik since wala ka na babalikan sa pinas. Kahit pa na ung business nyo naka panagalan sayo, pwede isipin ng VO na anytime pwede mo naman benta ung business nyo and mag settle down na sa Canada.


But if you still want to try na mag apply for study permit, try mo na lang din. Nagkataon lang siguro na ung VO na humawak ng case mo before very strict. May mga iba pa nga pati credit card, mga cars nila, andito din naman ung parents, may magandang work, pero na deny pa din sa tourist visa. I remember ako wala ako pinakita na assets like credit card or lupa. Nakita nila kasi na ako alng mag tour, family ko maiiwan (4 kids and common law partner). Sabi nila sa Canadian Embassy daw ang imp[ortant sa kanila sa ung ties mo sa pinas, they don't care kung di masyado malaki ung money mo. Sa US embassy naman wala sila pake sa ties, kailangan nila may makitang malaking moolah sa bank account mo. So talgang very important ang ties mo sa pinas. Pag isipan mo mabuti before ka mag apply. Mahirap din kasi ung marami kang record na nadeny ka ng visa. Kasi pag ang apply ak ng student permit, then ma deny ka kunwari ng three times, tapos back to tourist visa ka naman baka bababa na ung hcance na mabigyan ka ng TRV. Try mo kumuha ng agency, ung may mga partnership with post secondary colleges in Canada. At least ma advisan ka nila kung ano gagawin mo at matutulungan ka nila.


As for the school record/IELTS, it doesn't matter kasi kung magna cum laude ka. Kung wala ka talga mapakita na strong ties sa pinas wala din. Let's say may strong ties ka sa pinas, magkakaron ng factor ung grades sa college/TOR. Kung mababa grades mo, ma deny ka. kasi iisipin nila na kung dito sa sarili mong bansa di mo kaya, what more sa Canada. Actually pati sa dependent na kukuha ng study permit, very important din na mataas grades nila a tleast 85% and above and average nila. Kaya hinihingi din ang record sa school gn bata pag sasama. Parang ito ung mga priorities nila sa checklist nila:

1. ties sa bansa mo
2. proof of funds / income

Ung TOR/IELTS pangatlo na lang yan. Optional naman ang IELTS. Wala sya sa chekclist. Ung iba sinasama nila para pakita sa VO na wala silang language barrier sa Canada.

They've only been there less than 2 years, so I don't think they can do that yet. My dad wants me there the soonest kasi, that's why we're exploring the study permit option...

Hindi required IELTS sa atin, pero I submitted ny toefl ibt result nalang din.

Oh no, oo nga noh, ties. Sa akin kasi, my eldest sister yung PR sa Canada tapos yung pangalawang ate is working sa US as a doctor, tapos parents ko nandito lang sa Philippines and pareho silang may US and Canada visitor visa. Kinabahan ako na kulang na sa ties kasi wala na akong kapatid dito, pero since nandito pa parents ko, I guess enough naman yung ties.

Meron din nagpost sa thread na ito last year, may kapatid din na PR tapos nakakuha. Pero yun nga, kapatid lang.

Try and try until you die! Hehehe. Pero seriously, if you present a strong SOP (na talagang relevant sa previous studies/career mo yun ittake mo sa Canada and walang ganung program sa Pinas), malaking factor din yun.

Hello mga Kabayan!

Hope someone could give me an advice on my situation. I'm planning to apply for a student permit. Here are my details.

1. I was an FSW applicant once last Nov. 2011 application but was rejected due to work experience not satisfied the criteria given in the cic job description.
2. Planning to apply for a tourist visa (with wife and one son) to visit my parents and 2 brothers in Toronto (all are citizens na) and syempre hanap job for just an interview bago balik. Pero medyo hindi ako kampante sa way na to, parang malaki ang chance ma-reject.
3. Upon reading posts here, I find applying for a student permit is more advisable.
4. Planning to apply muna na mag-isa rather than with family para malaki ang chance na ma-approve.
5. Medyo may edad na rin, pero hindi naman daw ito factor to study there.
6. Have ample work experience (15 years). I'm an ECE.

Questions:
1. ano bang dapat kong kunin, Masters ba? ilang taon ba Masteral? Anong course ang maganda?
2. Anong school ba ang advise nyo enroll-an ko? Malapit sa Scarborough area Toronto.
3. Planning to work while studying, dapat ba COOP yung school?
4. Ilang taon ba ang mag study bago makapag-apply ng PR?
5. Ano ba normally ang month start ng pasok sa College/Univ. doon?
6. Ilang month ba ko apply study permit before the start ng school?

Regards and Thanks sa lahat.
