Congratulations on your approval.
lol at your emphasis about the NASA photo etc.

I think your application was more realistic regarding your age and intention to study. Also your sponsor checked out because you can’t obviously sponsor yourself at 17 or have property ties.

Congratulations again and I hope you make your time in Canada worthwhile

If you needed custodian, the embassy would not have approved your TRV. The adult age in Saskatchewan is probably 18, so by the time you get there you would not require a custodian.

Beside the general reason of Canada reducing our approval rate, the other reason why we dont see Nigerians post approval like other nationality in other group is because once a typical Nigerian receive appproval he will not come here to update us, he will start avoiding even his close friends and some relatives for stupid reasons. you will not see him again.But once a Nigerian get refusal he will post it in alll group that he is a member. I was at the lagos airport today and saw good number of Nigerians who are going for January intake, then i began to wonder who approved their visas.
Post your application final decision for others to learn from u or get encouraged.

Our sister that applied from dubai pls do update us as we are praying for u.
Exactly most Nigerians his information a lot.

Hello Omafor,

Stated below are my current situation:

1) B.Sc Computer Science graduate 2014
2) Conditional offer from Douglas College 2yrs Computing & Information Systems(PBD) and advised paying for 1st semester CAD7529.27 for LOA
3) Brother in the USA willing to pay the CAD7529.27 but can't act as a sponsor due to insufficient funds.
4) Want to use My Uncle who already acted as my sponsor when I traveled to INDIA for a 1year Professional course in Computer Networking (CISCO precisely) 2015-2016
5) Currently working for a Money Remittance company from 2017 till date as Client Service Associate


Questions:
1) Can my Brother pay for my 1st semester directly or have him send the funds to my Nigerian account and I make the payment?
2) Can my Uncle still act as my sponsor or I have him send the funds to my Account?
3) Is it advisable if I have two uncles act as my sponsor " one from Dad and one from Mum"?

I'll appreciate all the advice I can get on how to provide a killer application profile since my parents aren't boxed up enough to sponsor me.

Regards.

Hi,

Do you mind reading up previous threads?
You would get the specific answer to this question .

Also I think people should figure out their sponsors before even starting a uni application. You can’t go to a war without checking if you’ve got enough bullets for your guns.

Hi,

Thanks for visiting this thread. Few things very quickly,

1. Don't bother applying if you cannot afford it. Funding is very crucial.

2. If you cannot personally afford to fund your studies, then you must present a credible sponsor, the people you have listed so far do not appear credible in my mind.

3. Funding is not the only thing to consider, your previous travel history, family ties to Nigeria, employment prospects etc.

Based on your post and at surface level, it does not look like you can get approved, you need to read through the thread as suggested by @Sky00797 , so you can assess your self personally.

All the best.
