Canada Visitor’s Visa: Reasons for denial

Expedite Travel Services — Tue, 23 Feb 2021 00:19:28 +0000

I was denied a Canadian visa and I would like to know why; my application was done properly, and I provided all the required documents that were requested by IRCC?

We know how disappointing it can be when someone is denied a Canadian visitor visa. Just so you know, when you apply for a Canadian visa several factors are taken into consideration before your Canadian visa is approved. The visa officer carefully reviews your visa application to ensure that you have sufficient ties to your home country based on the supporting documents you submit to Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada.

You did not provide enough evidence that demonstrates that you are able to pay for your trip

Having sufficient funds available to pay for your trip is the most crucial factor when applying for a Canadian visa. The visa officer wants to know that you can finance your trip to Canada based on the amount of money you are earning from your job and the money in your bank account. However, it is not solely dependent on the amount of money that is in your bank account. A person with one million dollars ($1,000,000) in their bank account may be denied; while a person with $100,000 in their account gets approved a visa. This is because the person with one million dollars ($1,000,000) in their bank account may not be able to prove how they accumulate the funds. While, at the same time, the person with $100,000 in their account can substantiate how they acquired the funds in their account. Though the visa officer wants to know that you can pay for your trip to Canada, they still want to see how you acquired the funds in your account. Notably, if they suspect that you borrowed the funds in your account to obtain a visa, they will deny you.

You have not provided enough evidence to prove that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay

The visa officer wants to know that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay. As such, they will thoroughly review your visa application and the circumstances surrounding your travel plans, as well as other ties to your home country. Strong ties may vary from person to person; they generally include your job, house, family, and assets. Various aspects of your life bind you to the country within which you reside, such as employment, children, and spouse. If you fail to convince the visa officer that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, they will deny you under the pretense that your ties to your home country are weak. The visa officer wants to know that you have your job, children, or spouse to return to after a short stay in Canada.

Failure to provide all relevant supporting documents

Many applicants who choose to complete their Canadian visa application independently end up ruining their application, as well as failing to submit all the required documents. Resultantly contributing to their Canadian visitor visa application denial. Let’s say you did not fill out your application correctly and/or failed to submit all the supporting documents-for instance, if you were arrested in the past and didn’t provide a police record, they will deny you, for the fact that you did not provide all the relevant documents to support your visa application. Hire a professional immigration consultant if you do not understand the entire process and the primary documents needed submission to the Canadian Embassy.

You haven’t provided enough proof to support your reasons for visiting Canada

When you apply for a visa to travel to Canada, the invitation letter should state your reason for travel whether for: a family visit, tourism, funeral, wedding, or graduation. If you are attending a funeral, you must provide evidence of the death certificate. In the event that you fail to submit the right documents to indicate your main intention in traveling to Canada, the visa officer might deny you due to unclear reasons for traveling to Canada. Hire a professional immigration consultant if you do not understand the entire process and the primary documents needed submission to the Canadian Embassy.

Limited Employment and Job Stability

Being employed or working at a previous establishment for less than one (1) year indicates inconsistency and inability to settle in a job. The visa officer wants to know that you are stable working in a job for at least (1) one to one (2) years. The longer you are employed in an organization, the better are your chances of being granted a visa.

Benefits of studying in Canada

You can work while you are studying in Canada

Students studying in Canada can work up to 20-hours per week during regular school sessions and work full-time during the holiday when school breaks. Please note that while you are planning on working whilst studying in Canada, you still need to demonstrate to the visa officer that you are capable of paying for your educational expenses without relying on the job you will be doing while working in Canada.

Study in Canada with your family

Canada has made it possible for you to bring your spouse and children along with you while you are studying. How wonderful this is to have your family accompany you to Canada on this beautiful journey? If your spouse is going to Canada with you, he/she can apply for an open work permit that allows your spouse to work full-time while you are studying. The open-work permit will last for the duration of your studies. If your spouse gets approved for an open work permit, the money they will be earning can alleviate some of your educational expenses.

Getting a job in Canada after you graduate

All international students who have completed their studies in Canada are eligible to obtain a Post-Graduate Work Permit. However, to qualify, they must have completed their studies at an eligible Canadian tertiary institution. The Post-Graduate Work Permit allows you to work in Canada and gain work experience, which makes you eligible to apply for permanent residency under the Canadian Experience Class.

A Post-Graduate Work Permit allows you to work in Canada for the same duration as the program you studied in Canada. For example, if you graduate from a four (4) years degree program, you will be eligible for a three (3) years Post-Graduate Work Permit. If you graduate from an eight-month (8) certificate program, you will be eligible for an open work permit valid for one (1) year.

Studying in Canada is the easiest way to apply for permanent residency

Studying in Canada is the easiest way to become a permanent. After graduating, the next step will be to apply for your post-graduate work permit so that you can gain one (1) year of work experience to be eligible to apply for permanent residency under the Canada Experience Class. For example, a student that has completed their studies in Canada and is currently working on their post-graduate work permit for one (1) year would be qualified to apply for permanent residency under the Canadian Experience Class. The Canadian Experience Class allows graduates to make a successful transition from temporary to permanent residence.

Lower Tuition Costs

Many students choose to study in Canada because Canada has one of the lowest tuition fees in the world. Though some students might have the opportunity to study in other countries, such as the United States or the United Kingdom, they prefer to study in Canada as Canada remains competitive when it comes to accommodation, tuition fees and other expenses. Canada places a lot of emphasis on education and maintains one of the highest standards in education. A degree acquired from a Canadian university is recognized globally and highly valued in the international job market.

Safe and Friendly Environment

Studying in Canada is one of the best decisions you could ever make in your life. Canadians are some of the friendliest people globally, and you will probably find this to be quite true if you decide to study in Canada. The Canadian society is welcoming to all people. The country is considered safe, and there is a relatively high standard of living. Canada is among the ten (10) safest countries in the world to live and do business. While studying, you won’t be alone; approximately half of a million international students in Canada are currently pursuing their educational goals and dreams.

At Expedite Travel Services, we know how disappointing it can be when someone got denied a Canadian visitor visa. However, you can reapply as soon as you are able to provide new information or documents that you initially failed to submit. However, it is best to wait until after 6-12 months before reapplying. As if you opt to reapply and your situation has not changed, they will deny you once more.

These common factors are the reasons applicants are denied a Canadian visa most of the time: Insufficient finances, improper structuring of the application, failure to prove that you will leave Canada after the duration of the stay, and inadequate supporting documentation. A visa officer can deny you based on the supporting documents you submit or the lack thereof, along with the details provided in your application.

For example. On the application, you stated that you are unemployed. This will suggest that you are not working, and if you are not working, this may indicate that your ties to your home country may not be strong enough.
