Hi mates,

My first post. I will be very grateful to friends who can kindly guide me these two things.

I have an offer from George Brown for a tech course. I am currently in canda on a visit visa.

1. Should I go for SDS or normal application? My fear being, bringing a lot of money here for SDS without know if i will be given the visa....

2. I have 3 family members. Will definitely be brining them with me. For them, if i apply through SDS, should i bring their support money to Canda? It is 4k +3k +3k = 10k for the 3 members. Is it obligatory to bring all the money and put in GIC or I can show this amount in my account in home country as well OR bring to a normal (non-GIC) account in Canad? For myself, I will be doing the 10K GIC and paying the tution fee in full. My question is relate to the 10k for the family members....

What is your home Country? And I assume you are going to apply from Canada which means SDS will not be applicable to you.
