@scaranec, yaayyyyyyyy! Am I glad to hear that. Better start packing your things against september. I can imagine how you feel right now, congrats man. As for me I still haven't been called for meds since I applied end of march and I've been hearing cases of ppl that applied after I did being called for medicals in 3 weeks. To me there appears to be an issue, and I don't know weather to contact them, or even how. . ........cheers man, all d best.

@jaye
I think you should contact the embassy now. Call or send them an email quoting your passport number and enquiring on the status of your application.
I submitted my application 29th March, was called for Medicals on 27th April and picked up the visa on 24th May..........so I think you should call them immediately, so if they have a concern you can address it and get your visa on time for studies. Good luck man.

pls do i need an IELTS result for a graduate course in canada?

@simie233: go to the embassy immediately, fill a form for withdrawal of your application, and wait. You would provide the reason for the withdrawal, and your passport would be returned to you without prejudice. If you don't your application would be refused and you don't want that to happen. Those guys are already looking for reasons to refuse as many people as possible, so don't give them a reason to. Get the required docs and reapply. :'( my 1 cent.

 

[scaranek]

@juwon: It depends if the scvhool you are applying requires that. Most schools request for English proficiency test but this this is normally waived for Nigerians since the language of study and communication is English. You may just have to write the course/admissions administrator at the school for advice.

@scaranek: I have a question for u please, who was your sponsor in your application ? Was it your dad? Or yourself, and was it a company bank statement u used or personal? Pls reply, I'm trying to figure out something.....cheers and congrats again

 

[scaranek]

@jaye: It's self sponsor.

Going to UoC........MEng.
Where are you going and how long does it take them to return with a feedback for Medicals?

I was also admitted for MEng at UofC however its too late to apply for α study permit for the fall semester so I have decided to defer till winter(January 2013) although I already got admitted at University of Toronto and I have defered that till the winter semester...I really need ur help on the application process and how to prove that I'ld return to Nigeria after my studies, I was refused visa for my undergraduate studies because the VO said I have not satisfied him that I would return after completion of my studies. Would be grateful if you can be of help..plus did u apply through an agent?

@scaranek,
CONGRATS oooooooooooooooooo

 

[scaranek]

@miiswank:

Please attach a letter of assurrance that you are coming back after your studies, then back it up with details of familiy and landed properties that tie you to Nigeria.

On application through agents, there is no problem with that. I applied directly by providing all the required documents as stated on their website. For more detail goto Nairaland forum on Travels, there are Canadian immigration forum that gets you connected to people in your situation. Good luck man.
