Tag: Canada Visa Refusal Reasons

When you receive a refusal letter that your client’s study permit was rejected, your next step will be to determine the reasons behind the rejection. Depending on the reasons, you may want to apply again or to appeal to the Federal Court.

CIC’s refusal letter may seem very vague to you. Usually it includes generic statements defining your inadmissibility to Canada and inability to meet Canadian immigration system’s requirements. If your client chooses to appeal, CIC will forward you detailed reasons for the refusal.

Most Common Canada Visa Refusal Reasons

Most likely an applicant will see one of the following reasons:

1) Pursuant to Section 219 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, I am not satisfied that you have sufficient and available financial resources, without working in Canada, to pay the tuition fees for the course or program of studies that you intend to pursue.

2) You have not satisfied me that you would leave Canada at the end of your stay due to:

–  little employment prospects in your country of residence,

– an unclear purpose of your visit,

– your personal assets and financial status,

– your travel history,

– your family ties in Canada in your country of residence.

3) You have not demonstrated that you are sufficiently well established in your country of residence.

4) You have submitted documentations which lack credibility as part of your application. This has diminished the overall credibility of your submission.

5) You have failed to comply with conditions of temporary residents by remaining in Canada beyond the authorized period of stay. You therefore have lost TR status.

It is highly recommended to use an immigration lawyer to find the most effective solution for your particular case.
