How long does a Canada SDS visa take from Nadiad?

Once we submit a clean SDS file, decisions usually come in 14-28 days. Non-SDS can run 8-12 weeks. We file from the AEOC portal and biometrics happen at VFS Ahmedabad.

My family will sponsor me — does that weaken my visa file?

No, sponsorship is normal in Charotar. What matters is paper trail: ITRs of the sponsor for 3 years, relationship proof (PAN, ration card or affidavit), and a clear sponsorship letter. We draft all three.

I had a UK or Canada refusal earlier — can you still help?

Yes. Bring the refusal letter (GCMS notes for Canada are useful too). We rebuild the file addressing each refusal ground head-on. About 40+ of our recent approvals were refusal re-applications.

What IELTS score do I need for SDS?

Canada SDS requires IELTS 6.0 in each band (no overall — each band individually). Or PTE Academic 60 overall with 60 each, or CELPIP 7 each. We can coach you in-house if you are not there yet.

Do you handle education loans too?

Yes — HDFC Credila, SBI, Avanse, Auxilo and InCred. We help structure the collateral or non-collateral loan, prepare the file, and your counsellor can attend the bank interview with you.

How much does AEOC charge for student visa filing?

Our visa-only service fee depends on country and complexity. Walk in for a free first consultation and we will share the exact quote — no hidden charges, no per-page billing.

Can I apply for a part-time job visa after landing?

Most student visas already permit part-time work — Canada 24 hours/week off-campus, UK 20 hours/week during term, Australia 48 hours/fortnight. We brief you on the limits in your pre-departure session.

Do you only handle popular countries or also Germany, Ireland, France?

We file Germany (national visa for studies), Ireland (Stamp 2), France (VLS-TS étudiant), New Zealand and Singapore as well. Document patterns differ — ask us at the consultation.

Why Nadiad families pick AEOC for student visas

Country-specific file builders

Separate desks for Canada SDS, US F-1, UK Student Route and Australia subclass 500. Each desk knows the live checklist, not a 2019 PDF.

Refusal-aware drafting

Common Canada and UK refusal grounds — weak ties, unclear funds, mismatched SOP — are pre-screened before submission, not after a refusal letter.

NRI sponsor handling

Many Charotar families have an uncle in Toronto or Leicester sponsoring fees. We document affidavits, relationship proofs and Form IMM 5476 cleanly.

Biometrics and VFS support

We book your VAC/VFS slot in Ahmedabad, brief you on what to carry, and a counsellor stays on call during the appointment.

Interview prep that mirrors the real thing

Mock visa interviews for US F-1 and Australia GTE — recorded, reviewed, and re-run until your answers are tight.

Single point of contact

One counsellor owns your file from offer letter to passport stamping. No hand-offs, no repeating yourself.
