Justwise and few others already suggested the GCMS notes.

Just say you want to learn more about it later to help your case. Which one is get CAIP & let’s see it together
penitential:
This particular case is really of interest to me. I’ve read so many comments on this thread regarding this case but none has mentioned and advised her to request for her CAIP/GCMS file.

I think the first reason of denial is more than just what was wrote. It’s way complicated than that and only CAIP file can explain what was meant by that.

Please get your CAIP file and let’s see it together. You will def get your TRV sooner.

Hi Luckymama, I know you are one of the experienced contributors on this platform. However, I want to lend you a second person insight.

The financial aspect, remember that you are a mature applicant and you are married. I presuppose you attached your own SOA aside from the fund coming from your supposed sponsor?

I also assumed you attached your personal or family asset details to substantiate that you are financially grounded in your home country.
From the family perspective, I think your husband would have been the most suitable sponsor sponsor, but then, since he is not a sponsor, I believe you should provide evidence of his financial capability to be called upon in case you need more than budgeted. Look at it from the point of view that the VO is not fully convinced about the future intention of this third party sponsor- in that case, your husband will be the next to be accessed.

Also, I have read a comment by Frank on this platform where the VO only considered the applicant sponsors SOA (a company SOA with huge money) and refused the application even thou the applicant includes the sponsors personal statement.

I sincerely hope you get the gist

Thanks a lot for this insights. Will certainly implement when I repackage. Thanks again.
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Strongwind1960: 10:18am On May 12, 2020
Luckymama:
Reasons for refusal were the same generic reasons:
1. Not convinced I will leave Canada based on current employment status.
2. Not convinced I have enough funds.

Sponsor (close relative with same surname) is a business man. He has transferred the entire tuition and upkeep for the 1st year into my account since January. Supported with his business account with very healthy inflow and outflow of over 50m each month, and his personal account with over 40m balance. So I don’t know what other funds are required.







My one coin is: request for GCMS notes for your application(am glad you have done that already to understand reasons behind your denials).

Reapply and pay your full tuition for the first academic year and have sufficient funds for your living expenses maybe this time you might consider getting a domiciliary account and put your 10,000 worth of Canadian dollars there and have like 2million or more in your personal statement of account for your travels and other things, you know they appreciate it more if it is from direct sponsor that is what I feel though(open for correction) once is relative or uncle or frnd, I'll advise you to tell the person to pay the full tuition for your program and transfer other funds to you! Because they feel like the person will take his funds back once you are approved.
So it's always advisable to encourage your sponsor especially when the sponsor is uncle or
aunt or others to pay full tuition for that year not even first semester but first semester can work but full tuition is stronger in my own opinion, and carefully get a letter of sponsorship from him or her stating why he or she is funding your studies while you work on your SOP or LOE. (That is if you wish to maintain him or her as sponsor o, otherwise use your hubby as co-sponsor)
Let it be somewhat of self sponsor on your second application and while your husband stands as your co-sponsor, your relative can be paying small small money to your husband account Atleast balance of 3m in your husband account can do, he might choose to pay in one million Naira into your account for your flight or transportation, at least his own support while you can have the minimum of 2m in your personal account and show proof of the money hus transferred to you even if he has 2m left after making the transaction, no problem. They don't care if your account runs in billions you just need to be real and show a great sign or interest that your really want to attain that qualification though.

Pls back it up with prayers..

All the Best!.

DearAll,

I trust you are all keeping safe.

So my appointment was rescheduled from yesterday to today, at 12 noon.

Can some one kindly give me heads up on what to expect?

Eilenora:
Thanks so much for your kind responses to my inquiries.

So I have a Skype appointment with a Fanshawe rep this morning, I am not sure I understand why I need to have this just to get admissions but from what I have read so far, I see that one has to go through an agent to process admission into their school. Is there anything I have to do to prepare for the appointment? Is it like an interview or what? Anyone with previous experience particularly those currently in Fanshawe, kindly advise on the process. I have also read that one has to pay for these appointments. At what point does this happen? The appointment is 10am this morning so it is pretty urgent biko, e joooo. Kindly assist [color=#990000][/color] kiss

Hello Mr Frankrobbn1 and other gurus in the house.Forgive me if you're not mentioned.
I'm currently going gaga.

I applied first in Jan and got denied in Feb. Refusal Details being: "current employment situation and family ties in home country and in Canada"

Here's my profile:
I'm 23(24 by October) No tertiary education yet, i have an 8 year gap from end of secondary schl up till 2020.
I've been working since 2016 as an ict staff at an energy company, learning software dev. And volunteering at a local book club
SOA= 11,200usd + 13M =about 62KCaD or so, sponsor is mum, 2yr fees + living expenses= about 40KCAD and is way less than the total of what i presented so money shouldn't be an issue.
I gained adms at NBCC for a 2yr diploma in network administration for Fall 2020,
I had my sponsor write a letter too including my SOP , waec, family properties including a land Doc in my name, mum's last designation and salary increase.

I reapplied on 4th of march with all info above and added
Proof of family ties which include: Dad and mum's employment proof, my birth certificate and that of entire family,each member of family's local govt of origin cert
I also added proof of employment which include : Employment letter, confirmation letter, ID, Leave approval for duration of study from my employer and also indicated that i hv been denied bfr above.

Today i got denied for the second time and I'm sad and demoralised.

Reasons being:
travel history
Family ties in canada and home country
Current employment situation
Personal assests and status
Purpose of visit

Man y'all help me please
And also how do i get the gcsms notes

When did ur BVL drop and wen did ur denial also dropped

No idea, as they are currently waiting for further instructions to be communicated to them by IRCC. Hopefully in the upcoming weeks (by month end or first week of june), they should start accepting biometrics and paper based applications.

justwise:


Please don't start this, someone just got denied and you come up with this? How much do you know about this case that you are certain that throwing up $4,000 will win the case?

Visa that cost less than $300 to apply and you want her to spend $4000 to appeal?

I was only expressing my honest matter of concern as regards the applicant's visa refusal which was as a result of an oversight error on the visa officer's discretion. The VO had wrongly alleged an indictment on the PA's application wherein the applicant has never travelled beyond the shores of her home country before.

Well, I have cases like this and applicants who find themselves in such circumstances prefer seeking for a legal support and advice before making plans to file for a re-application.

In view of the foregoing, I only gave a suggestion, I never imposed it on the applicant. Every applicant must be responsible for their application and the onus is on the applicant to decide if she can afford to hire a lawyer or pay fresh application fees by addressing the concerns raised by the VO.

I believe my post haven't contravened the section 6 of the rules and regulations governing this honourable platform.

Let's move onto the purpose why this thread was originally created. Thank you!

I regret to hear your study visa application was rejected. Before I could provide my assistance, can you please explain to the house where in particular did you file for your study permit application, as I can see from your refusal reasons the visa officer has concerns about your current immigration status.


What is your current immigration status in the country you applied from?

I am in Nigeria, a Nigerian and I have lived here forever.
I have gone to Canada twice 2016 and 2018 on visiting Visa ... So I don't even understand what they mean by that.
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by dommakavelli: 2:20pm On May 12, 2020
I think you should order a GCMS note first to know the actual concern of the officer. However, if I were to guess, I would say the main reason for denial is because of your employment status. An internship is not a full-time permanent job. It's becoming common for VOs to reject people based on financial and economic ties. If you don't earn enough income that puts you in the Nigerian middle class, they might deny you. Meaning, if you don't have a job that earns you enough income, the VO could assume you will not leave Canada because of the better economic opportunities Canada has to offer.
Essentially, it means you need to prove that you will not be interested in a Postgraduate work permit, PR or any other form of status, even though it is not illegal to have dual intent. It's just ridiculous.

I think a decision has already been reached on your application. Nonetheless you may have to chill for a while (1 week) since you already raised a CSE two days ago.

That could be a ground for refusal. More so, how is your SOP? People get dinged for Vague SOP too. Again, we can only speculate. It's the GCMS note that would give you an answer. I highly recommend you get one before you reapply.

Another error on the Kenya Immigration Officer's (KIO) part. Applicant is applying from his home country with a Nigerian Passport. Despite that, the responsible Visa officer is not satisfied about his current immigration status in his home country. This tells how inefficient and callous these visa officers can be as they tend not to be reviewing files in its entirety.

The sad aspect of it all is that even the GCMS notes we firmly rely upon for clarity are also generic!, which leaves prospective applicants in the dark as there is no set out system/standards to follow.

Having said that, you have no option but to order for it and share the notes with the members of this thread.

On the other hand, you can address those reasons that were raised in a well articulated context and file for re-application.

Be strong and hope for the best in your next application.
