A Nigerian man [/b]has faced heartbreak as his Canadian student visa [/b]got rejected, despite presenting an extensive N100 million as proof of funds during the application process.
The incident prompted a cautionary message from a Nigerian tech enthusiast, @muvey10, who shared insights on TikTok, advising against presenting excessive funds and emphasizing the importance of telling a compelling story in visa applications.
According to @muvey10, visa officials are humans who make decisions based on probabilities, and it is important for applicants to communicate their stories in a convincing manner.
During the video, the techie questioned the wisdom of presenting N100 million as proof of funds for a study visa.
“You have N100 million in your account. The question is, how is that money in your account?,” she quizzed while admonishing people on the dangers of an excess prof of funds
According to the official website of the Canadian government, effective January 1, 2024, applicants for study visas must demonstrate financial capacity by having a minimum of 20,635 CAD (equivalent to N13.9 million).
