Hey,

Which is the best way to apply for study permit,
Online, At the VAC or by mail?

Also, I’m having troubles paying for the study permit online, it’s declining my card, I’ve tried all acceptable card, but it’s still declining. What could be the problem ?
Hi no.cap.alex,

Thanks for visiting this thread.

In my experience online application is best. Speak to your bank about using your card online, so they can remove any restrictions that may be on it.

All the best!

Hi, I am Ope, I glhave received my Original
Greetings!

If you are interested in hearing the truth, and still ready to proceed despite the challenges, you are welcome here. If you want to be pampered, please go elsewhere.

I am here offer advise to anyone who is Nigerian and needs assistance in navigating the dangerous waters of Canadian study permit application. Identify what the problem might be and how to possibly over come them.

It would be better to come here before you apply, rather than after you have applied, it might be too late to assist you then. Also, never rush to put in an application, if you are rejected once, your chances of being rejected a second time increases by about 60-70%.

Looking forward to assisting anyone with question here.

You are welcome.

Cheers

I mean that person who got his visa in about a month wasn't from Nigeria??
The person is a Nigerian from Nigeria. The embassy are not in their peak period, hence the early process time.

All the best.

My dad is my sponsor with bank statements ready also documents to a land with last tax papers paid 2016. Also my birth certificate has a name that's not on all my documents. Can that be a problem? What will be the way forward for me please

Thanks in anticipation

Hello Tripps,

Thanks for visiting this thread. I am sorry for responding late, quite pre-occupied with other personal matters. I hope well.

You are applying for a diploma? Do you have a first degree or work experience in this field? At 29 years old? Do you have gaps in your education history, work experience in this field? Are you currently working at all?

Your Letter of Support should be well drafted and signed by your dad, are you married, with kids? Also your statement of purpose should explain any gaps in your academic history, and why you are applying for a diploma at 29. Your having no travel history is a dangerous red flag.

Unfortunately in all, based on the information you have provided, I do not think you have a good chance of getting a study permit approval.

Nevertheless, I could be wrong.

All the best.

Hey, I’m back

I didn’t put my brother information on the family information form, and he’s currently studying in Toronto, I was scared the visa officer would think we won’t come back after our studies.

Is it right?
