Good day house,
Please I need the input of the gurus in the house.

A friend got rejected yesterday base on "personal asset and financial status", what can be done? What can be used to prove good financial status and personal assets?

Thanks.

What can be done? Is to provide sufficient proof of personal asset and finance before he re-apply.

I suppose you have only one concern, that is “financial requirement” and the rest are self sufficient. Back to your question;

IF you have 10m naira (If it is sufficient as POF) in your name, that will be sufficient. At 25, your uncle affidavit wont make your profile strong. It could only, if you are going to pursue first degree after highschool. Student under this category, depends on sponsors but not after your first degree.

second question about how you can prove your ties, If the rest of your family, and if you have children and spouse, thats a strong social tie back home. Properties under someone’s else name doesnt hold water.

YES. the money in my account is enough as proof of funds im unmarried no kids so ill have to use my family as proof of ties. hopefully that will be enough. thanks for your assistance

Hello Omofar,
I am 44 years old ,I have the following qualifications OND,HND (Quantity Surveying),PGD in Environmental resource management and Masters in Environmental management. I am looking to apply for a certificate program in Construction management in Lambton college ,2 year duration.
I also want my family to accompany me to Canada and I understand that the proof of funds for spouse $4,000 and each additional member is $3000 and $10,000 for me as an international student plus Tuition fee.
My question now is how do I go about this application in order not to be rejected?
Secondly do I need to submit my personal income tax or just my pay slip from my company as evidence of the genuity of the funds.

Hello guys, I was denied boarding my flight on June 27th on the premise of getting a secondary confirmation from a “discretionary group” from Canada, I was told without this confirmation I would not be allowed to enter the plane, the response from the group came 3 hours after my flight had left and I was told I could only travel 4 weeks before my classes start. Now the problem is that my student visa would have expired by then. Any advice please?

Background info:
-I already have a visa and acceptance letter from my school
-My school is a registered DLI
-My program starts September but I won’t be able to enroll until mid august.
- I was denied boarding in Abuja international airport in Nigeria

Please is this secondary check only happening in Nigeria or what? or has anyone else in Nigeria had a similar experience recently?
