Aaa Peee Well my dear it is all up to you. School is a good alternative to the whole FSW process. Your friend is right! MSBB did say the same thing to us as well. I think if you can afford the international fees go for it. Take it one step at a time.
Remember to get on it if you plan on starting this year. I have decided to do that route myself and will start school in September. All ma peeps there are so many doors out there. Explore your options. Keptis I am so happy for you and your sister we will pray for her for a speedy process. God is good all the time! |

Congrats Keptis!!! Hope it'll work out for your sister..it's always good to have company here.
Aaapee: I agree with Yeah and Msb..they love when u go to school here...a top Immigration Officer told me "they love when you go to school here as an international student" You spend alot of money and at the end of your course you have a 93% chance of getting a job in your field.  Sher: Wat a gwaan? |

Aapeee, whats the worse that can happen when u apply for ur study permit???? I definitely agree with the other guys, if u can afford the tuition, I would suggest u jump on it right now as deadlines for admissions for September 2011 are fast approacing.
Apply and do ur thing, this would just mean that u r moving on to Plan B (school) while Plan A progresses (PR) sloooowwwwllllyyy.

Hey Guys, Just saying a quick hello and Yes AApee, when you go to school in Canada, they don't want you to leave so they give you all avenues to stay.
At my orientation, there was an immigration officer who said, quote - " while studying you can work on your PR and we will help you with that." Spouses can work, kids can go to school, while you are on the student permit. If you get a student permit valid for 2 years, know for sure you can stay for 4 years as there are the various work permits you can apply for online. Once you secure a job, no worries after that. As well, when its time to apply for citizenship, they days you spend in Canada as a student are counted towards your required days to gain citizenship as .5, so if you spend a full 2 yrs in Canada on the student permit, it would be counted as 1 yr towards your citizenship. So you can get your citizenship much faster. And you don't have to worry about the " Canadian Experience" they always talk about as the education is seen as that. Where the tuition is concerned, there are bursaries and scholarships you can apply for and pay the tuition per semester and not all up front. Take advantage of all the discounts that are offered to students as well. Just my 3 cents..... |

NaddyJ: U can email them informing of the change of address, they wont necessarily reply.
Try checking E-cas to verify if the address has been changed to reflect what you want it to be. When I changed our address, it was done via email. We never had to go to the chc office to have it done. Edited by A_Yardie - 25 Mar 2011 at 7:07pm |

Evening peeps
NaddyJ I changed my address and I submitted a letter and my ecase had the updated address. They don't usually respond to such e-mails. wyswyg please see the link below: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/study-who.asp They require you to show at least 1 year tuition fees + Living expenses for a year ( around 10,000 CAD per year for a single person)+ Return airfare. Remember if you have dependents , husband/ wife and kids your living expenses will be higher ! Go through the website and read all you can as it is an investment Lata ma peeps |

In my case, My program is just a year, so I showed them the tuition for the year, plus 10000 for the year.
I did not have to show them the return ticket or any ticket for that matter. As a matter of fact, I do not have a return ticket....:) |

Good day Many thanks for your support and encouragements in my “plan B” decision. Whatever decision(s) I make, it has to include my daughter as my dependent - she is attending UWI. Link below on minor and dependent children: http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/jamaica-jamaique/visas/minors-mineurs.aspx Canada Universities – search on academic programs; select DATABASE SEARCH and select the necessary criterias. http://www.aucc.ca/can_uni/search/index_e.html I know it is a bit late for the fall semester therefore, I will be working for January/August 2012. Please, I am open for suggestions, I have a M.Sc, therefore I am trying to find the appropriate course and duration. Anyway, this week is champs Please have a productive and enjoyable week. I am hoping and praying that you will all hear positive news from CIC soon. BTW Canada is having an election in May…. Thanks again….
