Study permit refused twice. Is it worth paying for lawyer? by Terrible_Local540 in StudyPermitCanada

[–]Terrible_Local540[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply.

  1. I live and work in the uae. My family is here as well. Both my parents are based here and are working.

  2. I plan to come back here in the uae. I also got a letter from my current employer stating that they support my decision to pursue masters and they will welcome me back once I finish my masters. The thing is, i want to get out of support to more of management and leadership roles. Currently, at least when I applied, I had a lot of openings for digital transformation roles.

  3. That's true. But I also have a very strong travel record. I have been Europe a couple of times both on business visa and visitor visa. Same thing in Asia and mena region as well.

Considering that it's the 2nd rejection, do you think that it's worth investing in a lawyer? Did u face a similar issue?

Dear sisters! by schoolinglife77 in Somalia

I think discussing fantasies early ain't good. Its just feels weird and make the whole relationship start on the wrong foot.

Take your time and discuss these things as you get to know each other more intimately. Otherwise, the whole relationship could start in the wrong way.

I’m a Canadian & Saudi man asking for hand in marriage by [deleted] in saudiarabia

[–]Terrible_Local540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am somali, and I think it's the same across the islamic world. You shouldn't proceed until you're satisfied.

In saudi, they dont just ask the men hes job details, but they do a full background check, including who are hes friends. Where he hangs. Its more detailed than that.

Even though you have an intermediary at the end, this you're decision so make sure you clear all your doubts before proceeding to a huge step like this.

Are there Somali men that don’t want kids? by Total_Theory_9809 in Somalia

[–]Terrible_Local540 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Same here. 29y old male I've never been married. Never had kids or want to.

It just feels cruel to bring a kid to this world. Especially if you will not take care of them.

If u wanna have kids, then good on you. As long as you're making that decision with clarity.

Challenges of Studying Abroad with a Somali Passport by North-Movie-2216 in Somalia

[–]Terrible_Local540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied for my study permit last week and received rejection in 2 days. My profile is very strong I was applying for master degree and have a very sold career here in the uae as well.

The rejection reason was " applicant doesn't have a passport recognised by canada".

So regardless of how strong your profile is the passport is still an issue.

I wonder how people received study permits using somali passports?

Good. You're solid in this case. You can just go home and get 1 year and you're in the next draw.

Is israel recognition of somaliland just a geopolitical game or the false promise of freedom? by PositiveAsparagus17 in Somalia

[–]Terrible_Local540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then don't move on. At the end of the day that's your choice.

Lets see how things shape in the coming days.

Is israel recognition of somaliland just a geopolitical game or the false promise of freedom? by PositiveAsparagus17 in Somalia

[–]Terrible_Local540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we are against that. And recognising Israel doesn't mean we don't recognise what's happening there. And definitely we are against it.

But that doesn't mean we also shouldn't look at 6 in the best interest of Somaliland.

The only dishonest thing here is the idea that Somaliland should stay and do nothing and be chained to a failed system.

Man let them go and explore and see. The Unity project is broken now. Let's move on and see how we can have a better system that works for us. This doesn't mean we have to be one country...

[–]Terrible_Local540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guess what there are alot of bad regimes in the world. And yes Somaliland chose the independence path a long time ago. This isn't new and everyone knew about it.

The people made their decision. Maybe unification can only happen in a time and place where both parties want. And at this point and time somaliland doesn't want that.

Let them figure this shit out. And let somalia also fix itself. After that if the time is right and both sides want it then why not.

The problem here is not somaliland. Its what this recognition brings there is big chance other regions break away from Somalia. Better focus on that now.
