Hi,

I applied for a study permit to the Canadian Embassy at Ankara (Turkey). I'm an Iranian student. I recently received an email that's made me very confused, I'm pasting the main part here:
" We are writing regarding your visa application/s to Canada. In order for us to be able to finalise your application/s, we kindly request that you provide the following information/documentation by e-mail:

CV (no gaps)
Intended field of study
Supervisor in Iran
Intended Supervisor in Canada
List of publications "

The reason I'm confused is that I'm an undergrad student, I don't have any publications in my name! It seems to me that they may have mistaken me for a PhD/master's student instead. I was just wondering if it's normal for them to ask for such additional information from an undergrad student.

I checked my application and supporting documents several times. I have indicated to them in all my documents clearly that I am pursuing an undergraduate education in Canada. Why would they then ask me for such info that normally undergrad students can not provide?

I have no idea what to do now, I'm so confused. They've said in their email that I MUST only send them (via email response) what they've asked for and nothing else. I'm scared they may refuse me.

Thanks for your help.

Firstly, provide yo CV, regardless of the fact that you may not have worked. Have you volunteered anywhere? It is often the case that they ask for information such as this, generally because they don't really read your information, but only look to see if it is complete.. Simply provide a document (make it in Word) titled "Additional Information Appendix", explaining that you are an undergraduate student and that you haven't got any publications, but do provide name of your professors in Iran, and the name of the head of the department to whichever Canadian university you have applied.
