    I got what I think was a ghost update last Sept 6. It said profile updated and I saw that my biometrics was completed and that my background check and eligibility is in progress. Today (Sept 13), I received an email from IRCC for my Permanent Residence Confirmation Portal. I'm still in shock...

    My dashboard still says "Your action is required" for biometrics but my the Applicant Information reflects my completed biometrics already. I feel like it might still take awhile. I'm in BC. I didn't know that they send emails to check. They asked to me submit my latest pay slip and proof that...

    1. It depends on your school. For some schools, they opened registration na for Fall orientation so you can sign up already. For me, since I arrived early, I just visited the school a few days after I arrived to apply for my medical insurance but I didn't inform them when my study visa was...

    Anyone applied a Student Permit from Philippines?

    No, I did not have my degree assessed since my program does not require a Bachelor's Degree and I was already considered qualified to take the program. I was still required to submit my high school, college and post-grad transcripts (I have some units in my Master's also) but did not need to...

    The Statement of Purpose (or Study Plan) is very important because this is how you convince the Visa Officer that you are a bonafide student. This is where you explain why you chose to study in Canada. Hi! I received my study visa nung February and my classes will start on August 30. I will...

    Hi, guys. Have any of you travelled to Canada with prescription drugs? From what I read, we can bring 90 day supply as long as the medicine is in its original commercial packaging and we can supply a doctor's note. Tama po ba?

    Anyone applied a Student Permit from Philippines?

    Form what I know po, what you need from the school to be able to apply through SDS (apart from being a publicly funded post secondary institution) is payment of first year tuition. You can ask your school if this is possible and then you can submit the receipt along with the GIC. When I first...

    Anyone applied a Student Permit from Philippines?

    Hi. To start, you can determine what you want to study and which school. Once you have narrowed down your choices, you can check the websites of the schools and see their admission requirements.

    Hi. Ang IELTS po kasi, or any language proficiency test, is a requirement from the school for your admission. While yung SDS requires IELTS, that's because it's a new stream that is in partnership with select schools. If you don't have Academic IELTS, then you have to find a school that will...

    Hi, I used my BDO Dollar Account. I went to my branch and filled out the telegraphic form myself. The tellers there didn't know what to check also so I just filled out the form and copied the instructions from the Scotia Bank email. I haven't tried sending online but I think the teller needs to...

    I FINALLY got my approval! Please excuse my language but f*** yaaaas! I applied online last June 20, 2017 and got my refusal on July 29. I requested for GCMS and deferred my intake from Fall 2017 to the following year since my program only has Fall intake. GCMS reflected that the VO was not...

    Anyone applied a Student Permit from Philippines?

    First, let me say that I'm not well versed with stocks. :) From what I know though, when it comes to proof of funds, it has to be something that you have easy access to and can be used right away. If you can, consider applying via the Study Direct Stream. You pay your first year tuition and get...
