what are you trying to say? your wall of text is incredibly confusing.
you claim that these nigerian applicants are genuine - how did you know? dont forget that a majority of asylum seekers to canada come from nigeria in the first place!
and for the "who will invest such amount of money into Canadian education and not want to stay back?" a simple google search proved that there a lot of stories about people not wanting to stay here. so when you imply that everyone wants to stay on in canada is utterly false.
and judging one's success rate based on the success rates of others is actually a fallacy but i cant remember which one it falls under.
I see that you want some cheap popularity here, it's fine if it makes you happy, knock yourself out.
1. Those who open their minds and read beyond texts only will understand my wall of texts its plain English, if you need help just simply ask.
2. You ask a question how do I know they are 'genuine', so how do you know they are not?! That is such a ridiculous question. The embassy has laid down rules and minimum requirements for anyone wishing to apply for a study permit. Genuineness is measured by whether the person meets or exceeds this requirement or not. So, If the person meets the minimum requirements and applies then that is sufficient evidence that they are genuine, the onus is on the VO to provide counter-evidence that they are not... The whole process is based on evidence not the action of others. So the Indians, Filipinos, and other Asians who are on the student direct system getting visa approvals in 3 weeks have the intention to return to their home countries, right? You must be joking...
3. What has asylum seekers from the US got to do with those who are applying legitimately for a study permit? Again you are just pushing what you read without considering the facts. Is it only Nigerians that are at the Canadian border asking for asylum? Furthermore, the asylum seekers already broke immigration rules by running from the US to the Canadian border, so why is Canada granting people who want to enter the country under false pretenses and not to those legitimately applying from Nigeria, whatever is good for the goose is good for the gander.. To judge the intentions of Nigerians based on the behavior of a few is the very definition of discrimination, which Canada's ethos is very much against.
4. You are reaching. I never implied everyone wants to stay back. I only go by the evidence provided, if they meet the requirements for getting a study permit then the decision should be objective and not based on stereotypes. So I cannot know the intents of one's heart... Besides the study permit is a dual intent visa. That simply means there is nothing wrong with an applicant having a primary desire to study and a secondary desire to immigrate and settle in the country. It is allowed by the Canadian govt under the visa rules, so what if they wish to stay back, is it your business? You did not address the issue of post-graduate work permit which allows international students to settle in the country... How do you reconcile that the country has an opened a route to retain students after graduation, if there is an incentive to stay back after making such a huge investment, those who are wise will stay back, those who are stupid will return, I don't know which of the both you are yet. So if the Canadians have made a study permit a dual intent visa, then why are they worried that students may not return?
5. Your conclusion is ridiculous. If I have offered advice to some, they can choose what to do with it or not. If you cannot comprehend English you should get someone to assist you... If person after person contact me personally, and they are HNI and they have met all that is required for them to get their permits approved but still being denied, then I should still tell others to go ahead and blindly apply without critically thinking about the success rates, is that not why the articles are there so that people can decide if its what's the effort?
You just came here to dabble into what you have limited knowledge about, I know those on this thread are smart they won't follow stupid advice from clueless people. You are like some guy who claimed he applied for a study permit from the UK while on a tier-1 study permit in the UK that is almost expired...I told him he is unlikely to get the permit, he was proving he knew what he was doing... I asked him to come and give us feedback when he gets his visa approved, I am yet to hear from him... You will not educate yourself on the trends and facts of the matter, you just want to come and gain cheap popularity.
Why are you here by the way, are you an applicant, if not you should just move on and stop exposing your level of ignorance at least about this matter.
So please take some Fanta orange and sit down!
Nonsense...
