Forgot to mention my F1 rejection in my Canadian study permit

[Afwan]

Hello,

I applied for F1 visa back in 2016 and got rejected.i applied for Canadian study permit and in the form I forgot to mention my USA visa rejection. I thought it was only for Canada refusals and I stated my Canadian refusal details and attached refusal letters. Will it be a problem. If yes what should I do to overcome it.

I don't think you have to mention you got refused an F1 or US student visa. If you got rejected of a Canadian student visa then you should mention that. Canadian immigration and US immigration are not connected to each other.

This is terrible advice.

They ask you if you have ever been refused a visa for any country. If you are dishonest .this will affect your application

I totally forgot about it. I mentioned about my Canadian refusals but USA was not at all in my mind.

What can I do now?

I read on the forum someone was refused just because of this reason .

It is very very serious. you can be banned for 5 years from even applying. A refusal is the least of your concerns.

You need to contact CIC and immediately inform them.

You can not only get refused, but you can be banned for 5 years under misrepresentation. You have to contact CIC asap.
