Visa Refusal Cases

Student Visas often get refused when individuals apply on their own. There are numerous reasons for refusal, a majority are detailed out below.

Some of the reasons for Refusal are:

1. Study Plan: Without a detailed and logical study plan, the officer will not be convinced of the main purpose of your application. There must be a logical progression if a person already has previous post-graduate education or work experience.

The choice of programs in Canada must make sense for the student as well as for the IRCC officer who will assess the application on a case to case basis. A statement of purpose is required to prove the interest of the applicant in the choice of the study program as well as the future career plan after studies.

2. Proof of Finances: The Canadian government wants to ensure a student has the financial support to pay for their tuition and living expenses. A bank statement will need to be provided to show a student’s ability to pay for their tuition fees and their living expenses.

3. Lack of Travel History: If a person has not travelled anywhere outside of their home country prior to their study permit application, this could be a minus point while the IRCC officer is assessing the application. We at JS Immigration Consulting can help by providing strong legal arguments and referencing Federal Court Cases in the application.

4. Strong Family Ties to Canada: Surprisingly, having family members in Canada can be another reason for refusal.JS Immigration Consulting can help overcome this type of refusal.


Citizens from non-visa exempt countries must go through a much more rigorous screening process than citizens from visa-exempt counties. All Students from non-visa exempt country require a TRV visa (travel authorization) before they are allowed to board a plane and travel to Canada.

The Student Visa application can be a very lengthy process. The application requires detailed personal and family information. In addition, a number of supporting documents must be provided to strengthen and add weight to the application.

There is a high rate of refusal if the process is not fully understood and followed by the applicant. Applicant with a past refusal may find it even more difficult to apply on their own. We at JS Immigration have the skills, knowledge and ability to help guide you through this tedious process.
