Study Permit refused - border security

[RickyRicky]

Hi everyone, new to the forum.

My study permit was refused due to credibility.

CIC said I didn't mention I was going to study when I was at the crossing.

At the crossing, border officers never asked about my intentions in Canada and I never said anything.

I thought I just had to answer the questions asked and make sure all the paperwork was filed.

Is this sufficient explanation?

I don't want to create more trouble for myself.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post. Please help!

Sorry to hear!
What is your current residence permit? And why did you apply at the border?

Hi

I am currently here as a tourist.

I didn't apply at the border.

Umm... when did you cross the border, and when did you apply for the study permit?

If you'd been visiting for a while and then decided you wanted to study, then it might be believable. But if you entered Canada as a visitor, and then applied for the study permit 2 days later, then clearly you should have asked for the study permit at the border.

I'm sure it's not that black & white, but I think you will understand why I ask this -

Hi, thanks for responding to my post!

I originally came to Canada in Summer 2016 just to visit family. I was a student in another country - I was going to a highly regarded university, I had excellent grades and I was halfway through my university degree.

However, I ended up meeting someone here.
We got married early this year.
I abandoned my studies in my home country to be with him.

I returned to Canada in Jan 2017. After a month or so I submitted a study permit.
My original study permit was for college because it was the first place that accepted me.
My real intention was to get into university - which I ended up doing just recently.
I am going to submit another study permit for university this time.

Recently, I submitted an overseas spousal sponsorship. I didn't want to do inland because I do plan on returning back home before I start school.

When I crossed the border in Jan 2017 - I only answered the questions at the border.
Nothing was ever asked about my intentions in Canada.

Thanks again for helping me out.

Not sure I can help... you've posted in the forum for the CEC program, but your issues are family class and study permits. Suggest posting in one of those forums -
