Given your citizenship there are such high chances of you applying for asylum. That would be the biggest reason for refusal. The fact that your financial sponsor is your employer and not a close family member doesn't provide enough reassurance that they will keep supporting you. The last issue may be whether your chosen college degree actually teaches you new skills and allows for career progression. Not familiar enough with your situation to comment on that point.

Yes I agree with Canuck. Unfortunately you cannot do anything about your citizenship. The fact that a company is sponsoring you raises red flags.You are a software engineer, so does the course really add anything to progress you career? Do you have any funds of your own?

Simply depositing money won't work. That looks even more suspicious - why would any company put such a large amount of money into an employee's personal account?

I know this probably won't work for you, but the best thing to do is get into a course that makes more sense. For example, a Master's in Comp. Sci. from a good college.

The course you want to take seems superfluous for someone who already has a B.Sc in Comp. Sci. The admission requirements are literally any degree - someone with a degree in Art History can be admitted.

Add to that your citizenship and your financial situation and the picture looks bleak.

Please note that I'm not saying that you aren't a genuine candidate. This is just what it may look like to the officer.

Since that's a post-grad course it should be an OK course pretty much everyone has a bachelors here and are doing post grad certs.
Issue is probably more in finances and ties to home country.
Get CAIPS, May is not realistic unfortunately, maybe use the time to build up the account in a more natural way.

Hi,
My study permit has been refused die to the following factors.
I am not satisfied that the following information is truthful: Question 2(b): Have you ever been refused a visa or permit, denied entry or ordered to leave Canada or any other country?
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on the purpose of your visit.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on the limited employment prospects in your country of residence.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your current employment situation.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your personal assets and financial status.
I have applied culinary arts @vcc college but I am a pharmacist in Myanmar. My visitor visa has been refused before but approved after appeal. I answered No because I thought it is not Visa refusion.
I am currently working in Pharmacy but I mentioned my dream is to open a restaurant in my country.
For financial support, I showed my bank statement CAD 40000 and my brother's sponsorship who will support me during my study there.
So now he requested to VO to get the detailed reasons of refusion. How do you think? Please advise.
Thanks

With all these points, they don’t believe you are a genuine student. Lucky you didn’t get a 5 year ban. Also to add what is your education and work background.

There s no reason you need to come to Canada and spend 40K to open up a restaurant in Myanmar is the issue.
I have already mentioned in SOP to run a restaurant in my country after study and my brother is a alumni from this college who will sponser me during my study.
