Hello Friends,
My name is Sameer Hooda a 20 years old student from New Delhi, India.
Kindly Review my case and answer the questions.
Your help would be appreciated
> Going to University Of Alberta for Electrical Engineering 4 years Bachelors Program. SEPTEMBER 2012 Instake
> Accepted to University of British Columbia, Simon Fraser, Waterloo, Concordia and University of Calgary too but chosing Alberta because of a cousin living there plus some decent scholarship of 9000$
ACADEMICS
> I complete my 12th Class ( 84%) in May, 2011 and since then i have been just applying to the universities and hence little Gap
> My IELTS Score is 8 with none less than 7.5
> My High School subjects were Physics, Chemistry, Maths, Computers, English
> My SAT score is 1900 in Reasoning test
FINANCIALS
> My Parents are going to sponsor me.
> They have around Canadian $ 43,000 in Liquid Assets mostly as Fixed Deposits and some in Savings Bank Accounts for more than 5-6 months
> Tuition Fee of my University is $ 24,000 per year with $7000 Scholarship for first year and hence effective Fees is $17,000
> Therefore according to rules : Tuition Fees+10,000$ Living+$3000 Travel expenses = 37,000$ without scholarship and $30,000 with Scholarship
> They have Fixed Land assets of more than $300,000 ( Legal Ones )
> BUT ONE PROBLEM IS MY DAD IS ABOVE 63 years of AGE and RETIRED FOR LAST 5-6 YEARS, HENCE NO FIXED SALARY SO NO INCOME TAX RETURN. THOUGH TOTAL INCOME TAX RETURN FOR MOM+DAD COMBINED FOR LAST 3 YEARS HAS BEEN Rs.5 lakhs, Rs.5.5 lakhs, Rs.6 lakhs respectively per annum
MEDICAL
> I am a completely fine lad except for Asthma ( Is this a problem ) ???
TIES WITH HOME COUNTRY
> My dream is to become a semi conductors Engineer and one day open my own firm in India
> My Dad is above 63 and mom above 55, they are aged and i love them a lot and surely want to retrn back to them especially to handle my younger brother who will have just finished his 12th.
> My Parents are spending a big sum on me, I surely want to return.
> But i dont have any BIG assets back home, just some small plots worth $300,000 and a small house
MY QUESTIONS
1) How strong is my application ( My study plan is good, I fulfill Financials and Medical Criteria, and my University is top ranked with a good engineering program, Great IELTS score and School record )
2) My VISA Counselor asked to show Income Tax returns of my parents which actually arent that great, but after researching on net i found out they just require sufficient liquid assets which i have. So is the Income Tax return a problem ? If yes how much does it dent my chances considering all of my other points are strong ?
3) Which is more preferred ? SELF FUNDED or LOAN From The bank? Which gives more VISA approval rates or what does Canadian VISA OFFICE prefers more ?
4) Are my TIES to home strong enough ? If not what more should i add ?
5) Is my file good enough to prove that I am going Canada only to study ?
6) Any other TIPS? to boost my application ?
7) When can i apply for VISA at earliest for September 2012 intake ?
