Hi, I am new to this forum and would love your advice on my situation:
I got married last year November and two weeks later applied for a student visa (Got into an MBA program in a top university with a substantial scholarship amoount). My student visa was rejected on the grounds that;
-I have not satisfied the embassy that I have adequate funds without working in canada to pay my tuition fee and
-I have not satisfied the embassy that I will leave Canada at the end of my stay due to my purpose of visit and personal assets.
Its wierd because I got 50% scholarship and took a student loan for the remainder costs. Maybe I messed up because in my application letter I mentioned I wanted to gain work experience before going back home. Also the fact that I dont really have any assets back home may have counted against me. Anyway, now my wife just got an ITA and obviously needs to disclose my visa rejection status. Will this dampen our chances of getting a PR? I still have my school admission offer and initially planned to reapply for a student visa but it seems this immigration route is better? I would not want my initial visa rejection to dampen the chances of immigration as that means we will not be able to get the immigration and the school (we will miss out on both goals)..Or should I just deny this and reapply for a student visa? pls help, im confused

Mention the rejection. It won't be an issue.

50% of the people here have had visa rejections. Visitor, student...Whatever.

Full disclosure here is needed. It's fine.

Yeah, what kryt0n said. Based on the reasons you shared about the study permit rejection, it should not affect your wife's PR application.

Even better, once you become PR, you'll get local tuition rates and qualify for loans.
