Dear All,
I am from Pakistan. I have got acceptance letter for college diploma (3 years) got my CAQ. Now I am going to apply study permit . I need some expert advice in this regard should I mention my MPhil to visa office or hide this ? How many chances to get visa with or without mentioning it.
Plz reply

You absolutely need to mention you MPhil. Here's why... First of all, lying in your application is misrepresentation. Secondly, I'm assuming that at some point you will want to apply for PR. Most of Canada's PR programs are based on points and having a Masters degree will give you significantly more points. If you lie in your study permit application and fail to declare you have a Masters, you're going to run into a big problem when it's time to apply for PR and you need that Masters degree to get enough points to be selected. CIC keeps all applications on file and will see you said you had no Masters in your study permit and wonder how this Masters all of a sudden appeared in your PR application. Don't lie. All it does is cause problems in the long run...
