Anyone applied a Student Permit from Philippines?
- Thread starter sgmav
- Start date
Hi sorry to hear about your refusal. Have you requested for the gcms notes to get further details on why you were refused? as above refusal info are only generic reasons.
Basing on above though below may be the possible concerns of the VO:
-relevance of chosen program to career goal
-chosen program may not be a progression from previous educ attainment
-current employment status/stability
-career opportunities in home country after finishing studies in canada
-weak proof of financial funds/financial stability
-either stronger ties in Canada or no/weak ties in homecountry
You may also want to post your sop here (just delete any personal/confidential info) so that others may provide tips or feedback
Yes, I was able to get them po. First refusal was questioning why I was getting a 2 year diploma course in spite of being a college graduate and having 17 years of work experience. I answered these refusal reasons in detail in my 2nd submission, but was denied because of the same reason. Got the same VO, and they said that my study plan was "general" , even if I made it 5 pages longOh sorry to hear about your refusals
Can't really say if it would be better coz it can really be case to case.

Hopefully your change of program will help. Btw, did you specify your career goal (higher position that you are aiming for)?Yes, I indicated that I was aiming to become a digital content manager for a multinational company. I even described that it was one of the possible jobs I can get with the program.Oh
Hopefully your change of program will do the trick. If you want you can paste your revised sop here so that others can provide their inputs. Sincerely wishing you the best of luck on your reapplication
I just receive a correspondence letter for biometrics. I did last sep 11 but they sent it just this time?Hopefully your change of program will do the trick. If you want you can paste your revised sop here so that others can provide their inputs. Sincerely wishing you the best of luck on your reapplication
Hi MsCutler...just want to ask regarding the SOP...if applying online, do we need to print the SOP, then affix the signature, scan it before uploading?Hopefully your change of program will do the trick. If you want you can paste your revised sop here so that others can provide their inputs. Sincerely wishing you the best of luck on your reapplication
For me I received my biometrics correspondence the same time i received my approval. For others they received it prior their visa result so i think it depends on the VO
I reread above and may have misunderstood your question..you already finished your biometrics however you just recently received the request to do it now, is this right? Is this your first application and is it paperbased?
Hello po, posting my timeline:
NON SDS, paper based
Upfront medical- October 15
Submission of Application- October 16 (through VFS)
Biometrics- October 16 (did it on the same day as the submission to save time)
Received a message from VFS on October 16 saying that my application has been dispatched to the IRCC Office and is under process. It has been more than a week and I haven't gotten any updates since. The status on my account just says "Submitted", although I already have a biometrics number but they haven't started reviewing my eligibility or checking my medical results. Is that normal po? Does it take longer for a paper based to be processed than online? Thank you in advance for your response

Thanks for your reply..God bless!You can just make digital signature and also include the date you accomplished it and convert it to pdf file - this is what i did
Hi. Yes its normal, there are times that everything will be updated once you receive the visa result (my experience), for some they had a few updates like for their medical exam result, biometrics correspondence..prior to receiving their visa result so it may depend on the VO. Paper app may take longer as its a regular application. For online it can be faster if its via sds stream
