Hi everyone,

I applied in May but have not got the visa yet. One thing that's concerning me is that my sister is a PR in Canada. I read somewhere that of your siblings are PR or citizens of Canada, then it acts as a drawback for the applicant. Does any one knows about this? Is there anyone in the forum or knows someone who has siblings in Canada and they still gets the student visa.?? Please help me on this. Thanks

@Lac .. thank you so much for the reply. Was you nephew or niece a citizen or PR in Canada.?? What I heard from people is that if you have siblings it's PR or Citizen, then the visa officer thinks that you have connections in Canada and you won't come back after study.

And that it effects only if you have real brother or sister as PR or citizen. It does not affect I with second cousins or any other other relatives. I am really tensed.
 
FAMILY NAME IS NOT WRITTEN AS GIVEN NAME IS INDERJIT SINGH
Do you have the form you have submitted for your study permit application? It is the final form which generates bar codes? If you do copy and paste what you have written in that section. For Canadian visas you need to put something in last name section. People who doesn;t have one usually put their Given name as last name and leave the first name empty not sure how you submitted yours.
