In most cases travel history is just given for no good reason. Knows tons of candidate who were given this reason for no good reason( that list includes 1 good friend and 1 cousin and many acquaintances and all of them when cleared out the other points "travel history" went vanish... POOF!!!!). what @ Jeewan says might(?) be right. "Travel History" can be a genuine reason for SP refusal for candidate with past immigration transgression(crime in another country, overstay etc). @ Regina And how the heck "travel History" history be given by a VO to a genuine candidate who is going for oversea education for the first time? From which nooks and crannies of Canadian immigration law that you pulled it out?
What @ Regina said about "Travel History" is utterly wrong !
Now lets address your refusal issues one at a time
:
A) Purpose of visit: This reason is strongly tied to your "Intent of Study". Simply means that you have not satisfied the VO that your true intention is to study in CANADA. It is important after all you are applying for a STUDY PERMIT as a STUDENT! May be I am repeating what others have already said, but your course choice in Canada need to make sense in light of your educational history. For e.g if your uni certificate is in B.eng Mechanical engineering it is really hard or almost near impossible to convince anyone let alone a VO(who are already very skeptic) that you want to do a diploma in hair styling. Unless you have a very good reason! For e.g after your B.eng you actually worked for a hair styling saloon for years or more and you show that as a strong evidence that you actually wanted to discard your engineering career for this career. But beware in most cases VO do not get convinced. So try to choose a course that makes sense. Know a candidate who did a B.eng EEE and got a SP for Mcgill MBA. She wrote in SOP/Study Plan, how important her B.eng to have a breakthrough in EEE corporate world and how this MBA would help her to realize that dream. Now this candidate was a science background her whole life but went for a Post grad in Bus.Adminstration. Two different field but still makes sense. And another important thing in showing "Intent of Study" is the course that you choose whether it is available in your country or not, if less available then its better because that shows strong justification as it is unavailable to you and if it is a popular course in your country and there's proper availability then you have to show strong justification why you choose it in CaNADA. For later case you can show high competition so international degree gives you better chance to compete with local candidates etc
B) Your current employment situation : Give some really good reasons for your gap. I might be wrong here but I think this point was given mostly because of your gap. What ever the course that you did after your uni try to make sense out of it by relating it to your choice of course in Canada and your uni course. Brother you need to connect the dots.
C) Your personal assets: That is just a fancy way of saying that you do not have a home tie. Meaning that they want to see SP candidate who will return to their country after study and will not overstay. And they determine it namely by two way and they are 1) JOB : YOU HAVE/HAD A JOB BACK HOME AND YOU WILL GO BACK TO YOUR JOB/GET SIMILAR JOB AFTER YOUR STUDY and/or 2) GOOD AMOUNT OF PERSONAL ASSETS THAT WOULD MAKE YOU LEAVE CANADA AFTER YOUR STUDY OR AT LEAST PREVENT YOU FROM OVERSTAYING IN CANADA IF PUSH COMES TO SHOVE. This "home tie" is very important and most visa do get refused on this ground alone. As your profile say no job you need to show good amount or at least decent amount of assets that you own or your sponsor own e.g House, shops, businesses etc.
And that's why your uncle being your only sponsor is a real problem !!! See if either or both of your parents were your sponsor you could have shown their property as a pretty strong home tie as they are completely absent from the picture so is the home tie. And if they were your sponsor you could have also said that how valuable this education is and how your are going to pay there hard earned money by coming back and taking good care of them. Now that home tie cannot be shown with your uncle property as simply that is not your property, with your parents property you can at least inherit them readily. Now I am quite astounded that they have not shown proof of funding as a reason for refusal. But then again there have been cases where uncle/aunt etc funding are acceptable may be you are one of them!
If I were YOU?
Would not bother about Travel history at all. I would have gone for second time with more proper presentation. Addressing all the issues that were given as reason of refusal by the VO. I would pay attention to every single details and would present them in a more meaningful way. As I have written above. And I would have made some real effort to add my parents as my sponsor with decent amount of property at least as my partial sponsor with my uncle(as uncle seems to be not a problem in your case i.e have not shown proof of funding as a reason). And do not forget about the UCI(Unique Candidate Identification #) so they actually know who you are when you are attempting again. So you have to be at least a little careful and relative in your second attempt in refernce to your first attempt.
Hope this helps. And a word of wisdom, this forum is really helpful but do not accept everything that you hear from here. Because People's intention varies greatly. Each individual candidate is unique case and CIC do treat them so. So do not believe anything that you hear from here, not even me, rather take all this as advice and suggestion and make your own decision.
;D ;D ;D ;D And don't you dare to give up on dream and hopes. Maybe some or all you dream will come true in canada or elsewhere but whatever or however the outcome is, never stop chasing it. All the best !!! ;D ;D ;D
