Hello Everyone,

I have been offered admission to one of the Universities in Canada, I would like to know what are the chances that my visa will get accepted/rejected.
I can show proof for funding - I have a bank loan for it. I can apply for GIC also. However, my only concern is, I completed my Bachelor's in 2017 and got a job in IT in Feb 2018 and worked there till Feb 2019. Then I quit my job and decided to go for a higher study (New Zealand) but for someone reasons, I decided not to go to NZ. From then on I have been doing online courses (got certificates) (also preparing for some exams)until now.
In brief, my timeline is
2017 - Graduated
2018 - Feb to 2019 - Feb (Job in an IT company)
2019(March) - 2020 (June) (Online courses through Coursera)

I would like to know whether my visa will get visa get rejected due to gaps in education without employment if so how can I convince the visa officer regarding the gaps in education. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
