Hello@Builder444

I'm going to be 22, and I started working in late 2023. I have less than 17 days before the start of my course, so it's too late for me to make a transfer of my POF. Thanks a lot for your advice.


Builder444:
Are you below 18?

If not I will advise you tell your dad to transfer the money into your account..
You can as well discuss your proof of fund to comes from your dad, showing evidence.

Provide proof of your job such as contract letter and discuss reason for your refusal and how you have corrected it positively moving forward.

Hello@doublestar21

Thank you very much for your response. I was initially refused the CAS by the institution to which I applied due to the previous Canada student visa refusals, but after the submission of my GCMS Notes, the institution reversed the decision and has decided to issue the CAS, which I have not yet received.

I have not yet completed the biometrics.




doublestar21:
The worst thing that could happen is they will call you for credibility interview to ascertain if you are truly a genuine student.

If you pass the interview, you get ur visa as far as you tick other boxes (criteria). People who have two and three Canada refusal has testified in this thred . Just be positive. When was your biometrics

Hello@ Everyone,

I have been refused a Canadian student visa three times, and I am concerned if this will prevent me from obtaining a UK student visa?

Hello@Builder444

Thank you so much for your detailed explanation and advice.

"What are you doing currently"? I am currently working, and my father is providing financial sponsorship for my student visa.

"What year was the visa refusal?" 2023 and 2024.


Builder444:
First step.
Declare all your refusal and during your applications, upload all of them..

If I may ask, what are you doing currently..
What year was the visa refusal?
This two questions are very important to address how you will tailor your statement of purpose..

Because you need to make the home office know that ever since the previous refusal, you have improve your self positivity and financially..
That is, you have rectify that by working various jobs(show proof) and that you have been saving some percentage of those money..

You show attached two statements.. one explaining the refusal details and how you have improved yourself over the years and the second is statement of purpose, explaining why your master degree is important to you along side your future goals and why you will need to come back to Nigeria to support, help/ add to the current society such as giving back to the community.. Very important.. you can also claim that all your family are in Nigeria and you will like to live with them in Nigeria after masters, that's if your master is not research.
You just have to show tangible proof that you will leave UK after your master for the purpose of the visa application.

And please, if you are doing the new application, irrespective of the number of days your visa might take, ensure the money is in your account till you get a positive news. Ire ooo

Hello@Builder444

I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as required by paragraph R216(1)(b)of the IRPR.

I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will leave Canada, based on the following factors:

"Your assets and financial situation are insufficient to support the stated purpose of travel for yourself (and any accompanying family member(s) if applicable)."

"Pursuant to paragraph 220(b) of the IRPR, I am not satisfied that you have sufficient and available financial resources, without working in Canada, to maintain yourself and any family members who are accompanying you during your proposed period of study."



Builder444:
Depends on the nature of your refusal.

@ Marcgrace thanks again

The balance in my personal account will be 4.5 millions naira, is this amount okay for 7days tourist visit?

Looking at my account balance, like how many euro do think is okay for 7days hotel booking?

Base on your estimate that means I should booked hotel of 460euros for 7days, 460/7 =€65.71/ day,is that correct?

I applied for tourist visa to Netherlands in France in the year 2014 and the application was denied with reason that the purpose of travel is not reliable.

Pls house I need ur guidance on how to apply alone at this time for France, can I apply for France? Consider the past denied record.

Am a business man.

Actually rebooked; in my mail I got the "This reservation was canceled because of an invalid credit card."
So I assume this was my mistake.

However, I looked into another hotel reservation for the same date and duration, which has a status that reads "Confirmed."
Please, i am seeing this email: fncci@france-nigeria.org and adfr.lagos-cslt@diplomatie.gouv.fr
Which is valid?

Hello !

I am currently waiting for my CAS. So once I receive it, the next steps will be to apply and submit my student visa application documents online? Followed by booking a biometric appointment?

I need to find out the latest available biometric appointment at VFS Lagos, as I must complete my biometric before July 28, 2025, as the 31-day rule is a crucial aspect of the financial requirements for a UK Student visa.

Thank you !
