Gregory Hoyt Maintain Student Visa

Donation protected
My name is Gregory Hoyt. I am a 27-year-old American studying Associate of Science at Dawson Creek in BC, Canada. When I first set out to obtain a student VISA to travel and study, my financial situation was supportive of my endeavors. Unfortunately, due to new developments regarding friends and families who were crucial in financing my studies, I now find myself at severe financial risk which would result in my deportation for being unable to pay for tuition fees as well as the seizing of assets in regards to my car if I am unable to pay off my loans.

My friend who was kind enough to host me, assist with my bills, and loan me money is now under financial duress on their end, and so is unable to further continue their support. I must return the money that I owe them as soon as I can as they are in immediate need of it. My father, who was financing my travel from the beginning, had to cut back due to emergency medical bills. I have been working two jobs, with restricted hours a week, in Canada alongside my studies, with difficulty in finding other work that would allow me to pay for my bills. My work salaries are for living expenses and rent, but much of it goes towards paying my current debts regarding this, thus significantly limiting what I can spend on food, electricity, water, etc. I am also paying for expenses regarding my pets: Tibby my 7-year-old cat, and Cabo my 4-year-old bearded dragon.

I have been extremely hesitant to ask for help for some time, but given the sudden developments due to my financial support, I am now in dire need of assistance. I wish to maintain my ability to finish my education to hopefully pursue a career down the line, as well as to maintain the friendships I have fostered so far here in Dawson Creek.

Here are the expenses that must be paid off soon:

$12,000 - School Tuition
$12,000 - Car Loan
$2,000 - Loans from Friends

I would require a minimum of $4500 minimum in three months to pay for my college tuition. I have listed all the expenses I would need to pay off for transparency purposes with the hopes of being able to afford them all down the line. If you are unable to donate to my GoFundMe, I will leave a link to my Ko-Fi and PayPal and will upload donations sent to it on a biweekly basis.
