Hello, I've applied for the student visa (the study permit) two times and I have been refused both of the times, the first refusal letter was because of this reasons:
Nevertheless, I managed to get the sufficient funds and I reapplied with the new bank statement. This second time I got this response:
I completely forgot that in 2011 I got a US tourist visa rejected and now I am not sure if I should reapply with the correct information. Also they did not mention that point on the first refusal letter. Is this a big problem for me now? Please help!
What are the chances of getting a positive answer the 3rd time? Should I reapply?
I am very concerned about this issue. It was an honest mistake.
