dear unclerukus666, in my opinion, you seem to be relying on your step-mum's ties to canada to secure a visa. this is a wrong approach and may not end well. as a visitor, your duty is to demonstrate to the VO that you are established at home and that it is indeed a temporary visit permit you seek. the timing of your application may be late if you plan to travel int the planned period. basic documents you may need as a student;
a well drafted letter of introduction explaining why you're making this trip, the plans you've made to handle all sectors the VO would be interested in including, but not limited to; accommodation, transportation, funding, travel history, why this trip is to be made to Canada and most importantly why you cannot abandon your studies and disappear.
all CIC forms duly completed and signed
your international passport
documents to backup accommodation, transport, money(account statement), sponsorship letter(very detailed including your name, DOB, passport number and specifically how much you're sponsored with), school introduction letter properly endorsed and possibly your academic transcripts.you must also show evidence that this woman is your step mum.
keep your application truthful. Best of luck

Hi jawa
Thanks for the previous advice.
I now have all necessary documents, includes a letter of visitation. but i heard i need to get a sponsorship letter and bank statement from someone here, and it could be from my (mother, father, uncle or even a family friend ).
So what should be the content of the letter of sponsorship.
Thanks

Thank you once again for stopping by. Always appreciated. What I am doing is actually trying to clear my doubts or at least address it in my explanation.. I understand applications are different and each treated uniquely. I am doing my best to have an air tight application to the best of my ability and as confidently as I can. Thank you again.

hi ifymeme, every application is different and on its own merits.with a simple request, the VO already knows about your US history and may have foreseen this plan you just concluded on. you mentioned you applied via paper route meaning your passport is included in your application. the VO will see the US visa and note that. however, a US visa will not guarantee a canadian visa(should influence but not guarantee) whether used or not. i know people personally who have valid US visas, traveled multiple times before applying for a canadian TRV and it was refused. dont stress it, VOs understand plans change. last year, i had planned in an application to visit saskatoon and Calgary international as my POE. work happened and i didnt have any space. eventually traveled november via Pearson intl in Toronto on egyptair because lufthansa wanted to kill me with pricing on the calcary route.
my opinion is, your application has already been made, you cant really change it. just keep your fingers crossed,regret nothing and pray it goes well so you can cross over and over in Niagara falls and chop life.
alternatively, you can email them about this new plan and its details and see how that goes. best of luck

dear overlord77, congrats on your visa. if you are visiting canada for the first time and you dont have a specific event or period to visit, egypt air is always cheapest around late november to early december. the planes are not new but you'll get there while saving out a lot. the cold during this period however, is severe.also lookout for deals on BA, you can get a flight to toronto for just 600GBP with transits in London and montreal. i shall also like to tell you to use the UP express, a pearson airport train service, to go downtown toronto, you will love it and it will cost you just 12CAD. a taxi or uber for this service will set you back at least 45CAD. ottawa is a great city to visit too and montreal if money is not a problem. if you're an explorer and like to see and feel things for yourself, try and see one of the finest cities on earth, vancouver or venture into the freezing streets of yellowknife, the capital of NWT province. i know you cant see it all at once but i like trying.
if you have a valid US visa, flying to boston or NYC and then getting a separate connection to toronto is always cheapest if you plan well ahead of time.
enjoy your trip. best of luck.

Dear anniora, the canadian VO is not bound by law to reveal the actual reason for refusal in the refusal letter like the UK ECOs are. They can tick whatever they like. I know someone who had been everywhere in Europe and had been to US and his canadian visa refusal had travel history as reason. He wasn't traveling too much or too long neither was he visiting hostile cities. Applying for GCMS notes is the only way to know why an application was refused. This is like writing an exam, failing and then re writing the same exam without knowing what or why you failed. A failure might just be imminent.
In your case, having visited and returned is an upper hand but every application is different. all applications are treated as though they're first timers as the 'dropbox' option is not available. Your chances cannot be told. You and the VO are in the best position to tell because only both of you know your story completely.
Best of luck
