TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 22 by duncanmighty: 1:07pm On Jul 12, 2023
Hello gurus, asking this fir a friend who is about applying for Canada visa to join his wife schooling there. He is applying with his 2 children but he has a previous Austrian visa refusal about 4 yrs ago and doesn't have idea of the reason for refusal as he claimed the refisal note was written in their language and still doesn't have the paper anymore. He asked if he should declare that he was refused or not. Thanks

Good mornig Durchess, Good morning fellow members,
Please can I go ahead with the tuberculosis test even though I'm yet to receive my unconditional offer letter.

Thanks a lot. More wisdom!

Hello

Not intentional,I may have missed it

Quick question your position as a director was that a full-time job and did you earn salaries from it?

Would it be right to say that it seems you only registered your company but never really kicked off so you weren't self employed as such

I would advice you include your NYSC and your employment letter as a director to the limited liability company to cover your study gaps.

It's okay if a year (2013-2014) is not accounted for as long as majority of the study gaps are

Cheers

Just paid my tuituon deposit, awaiting unconditional offer. Can i also proceed with the Tuberculosis test in the meantime?
Isiterere:
Go and apply for the TB test right away.
You don't have much time on your hand, it's better the certificate is ready before the maturity date

Hello Duchess, dunno why you ignored all my previous queries but its fine.. now id like to ask a question similar to what you just addressed here. I graduated from uni in the year 2006. Served fatherland between 2008 and 2009. Registered a business name in 2013 as self employed( though its been inactive and no tax) but became one of the directors of a limited liability company registered since year 2014 , active on cac and we pay taxes. In order for a straight forward application do i stick only to the limited compan by submitting all the documents related to that while I ignore the business name which is inactive an d have no tax document to present for it?
I wanted to consider adding it alongside to cover up study gaps between 2013-2014. .thanks as i await your advise.
duchess90:
Hello

The document you provided doesn't show that your business pays taxes unfortunately

I am not sure of what stage of business you refer to

Falsifying a document will lead to a minimum 10year ban

Anyway, submit what you have, if the ECO is satisfied then fine, if not you wil get a not straightforward mail(NSF mail) requesting for additional documents


Cheers

From the screenshot you posted, the course starts in September 2023 and ends in October 2024. That’s more than a year, hence the extra payment I guess.

Flywire takes 3 working days to reach ur school. But, what matters is the date you made payment via flywire.

Hello House,

I was offered a place at University of Sunderland to study Msc International business. However Under the CAS shield form I was to complete. Do you advise that I do not declare my previous visa refusal there while I declare during visa application?
Secondly, as a single father, I have a son who I would like to join me later as dependant. How do I make that known there?
In the CAS form, a question was asked that "Do you have anyone coming with you to the U.K? Do I say yes or No? I will want some others to join me later but not when I'm leaving.
Pls find the attachment and guide me based on my circumstance. Thanks

When did you pay your visa fee and whats the earliest appointment date you got?
Ashen800:
Thanks Myfavour. That's the thing, I think it's slightly different when applying from the UK. Please see attached image. The field for the DS160 number is uneditable until I cancel my appointment. The only editable fields without canceling appointment are passport number and phone number.

I don't mind canceling and rescheduling the appointment as there are still dates available. My concern is just, hope it won't raise any flags attaching a new ds form to my appointment and also is it really important to add the part time role.

I hope that filling those gaps as suggested wouldn't cause any problems especially when its not verifiable
amorprincesa:
I won't be surprised if the school is Ulster University. They don't accept gaps. You must be doing something or learning. Even if it's 3months.

1. What were you doing in 5years (2006-2011)?
Edit your CV. If you were idle, You can fill those space with computer school, learning Barbing, working in supermarket, learning how to make window frames, teaching etc.
For example: Computer school (name) June 2006- January 2007
Ducan supermarket (job title) February 2007- March 2008 etc

2. Your personal statement isn't convincing enough. Edit it.
Why UK? Why that school? Why that course? Will the knowledge gotten from the course advance your career or business? Why now? Etc

3. Send them WAEC scratch card (pin).
