Canadian Study Visa from London

[blazinbeauties2002]

Hello guys,(Urgent)


I am new to this forum and have read all the postings from the very beginning. However, there seems to be nobody applying from London. This is my case: I’m Nigerian living in the UK. I did my Master’s in the UK and presently work as a research assistant.

I recently received an admission offer for a Master’s degree leading to a PhD, from a Canadian institution with funding that enough to cover my living expenses and tuition.

My questions are:

a) Would the letter of funding on its own suffice for the visa application process, or I still need to include some statement of account?
b) What implication would the funding have on my application?
c) Could anybody with the London application experience comment, please.

I would very much appreciate your swift responses.

hey bro thnx for getting my point .

now i will explain a little bit to you about it though bcoz no matter which country it is procedure is almost the same, first of let us know whats ur status in UK bcoz u have to show enough ties to UK or ur home country that after study u will come back .

2ndly about funding if the universty is offering u full funding for the course and living expensive then its good but still u have to show ur personal bank account statement or any1 from ur family's bank statement and also if u got some property or assets etc jus to make visa officer sure that u have alot of funds or property for which u are going to come back. bcoz in ur case funding for the education is not a problem u dont have to prove that u enough funds to study in canada. i hope it is helpful and best of luck for ur future application

@ jiawan

Thanks for your reply. I am on a Post-study work permit in the UK. I hope I can use a Nigerian Bank Statement to apply in London?

Thanks for your post pal. Just to let you know, I'm not married and don't have my own property back in Nigeria. However, I have my siblings and mother, plus a family house that belongs to my mother in Nigeria. I hope that would suffice.
