I am in a situation and I would really appreciate your advise. I was refused a visitor visa to Germany in the past. I did not include this in my initial application for a PR . I did not read through the question before I ticked No. My thought was if have ever been denied a Canada visa only. Now, I have received an email for updated forms and to re-do a medical. It was through this email I realized I have to answer for a visa refusal for to any country.
My question is , should I just maintain what was on the previous form OR I should tick YES to the new form ?. What is the consequence ?. Will I be penalized for not declaring this in my previous application ??..It was completely an omission and not intentional . Will cic refuse my application if I say YES now that I realized. ??. Please,help me.
