Are you a male or a female?

Male

Spectro:


Thanks a lot for this.

I was refused June 9. I wanted to reapply June 10, but I hadn't paid tuition.

So I went to Stanbic bank on June 10 to open a current account. I had to wait for a week before getting the new account. And so, on June 17, I filled in Form A for tuition payment. It took two weeks to process tuition payment... I don't know why.

I still waited for my university to send receipt, so that was like another four days or so. I got debited on Friday, and had to wait till Tuesday to get my CIBC receipt. And then I got payment receipt from the University a day after.

On July 4, I vetted all documents, LOE... They were all 3.95+mb for each section. July 6, I submitted my application.

Reasons for my first refusal
1. Purpose of visit
2. Home tie


I wrote two separate LOEs to tackle both; one for each concern. Honestly, one LOE should suffice, but I was determined to make this my last application. I decided to give it my best.

Purpose of visit was a wrong judgment by the VOs. So I explained in 4 pages why there must have been a misunderstanding. I did serious explanation, breaking things down.

But most importantly, I was honest and revealed my vulnerable side. Since I knew I wasn't doing anything wrong, I decided to be myself. My intentions were real, not deceitful, and my goals were clearly stated.

Hometies had about 6 pages explanation. I was very particular about this one. I just had to write it to the best of my ability. Again, Honesty worked for me. I revealed some very personal reasons I would have to come back home. And then, I made mention of several assets.

One thing with home tie is, there are four types, I believe...

Hometie to one's spouse, children, or parents... Explanation must be exhaustive.
Hometie to one's land, business, houses
Hometie to community responsibilities, roles... Sufficient proof must be provided
Hometie to place of work... Employer gives you a study leave.

I noticed one thing.

SOP (or LOE) is very very very important.

Whatever you state in your LOE/SOP, attach documents to prove them.

This is why each section of my application space was approximately 4mb.


Thanks a lot once again

Nice one, thanks for breaking it down. Wish you the very best, we'll meet at the top in Canada by God's grace.

Please, how can someone change institution?
I am planning on changing my DLI, I already got admission to a new school and I intend changing. Please how do I go about it and what's the duration it takes?

Congratulations Spectro!!! God indeed makes everything beautiful in his time. Your initial refusal was on the same day I got my approval. I am so glad you didn't let that deter you, instead you got fired up and see, you are just in time to make fall session if you want!!! So sorry you had to go through that sad situation and a very big Congratulations that you came out of it victorious!!!
Canada will favour you!!

Please is there anybody going to Victoria in British Columbia? Hola!

Lekiboboe:

Not possible, the minimum admission requirement for Masters in Canadian Universities is a 2nd Class Upper.

A 3rd Class graduate is good to go for a Post Graduate Certificate (PG. Cert) program related to his/her Degree (if no serious study gap) or his/her work experience (job) at a college

Thank you for your response. I appreciate

So I sent a mail to the MP in Victoria, she forwarded it to another MP who was the caseworker for exact region covering my school. I wrote a very compelling mail stating reasons why I needed a swift response from IRCC. I was asked for more information which I just provided.
I do hope that this prompts IRCC to make a decision.

The refusal was tough and devastating, but I was always very proactive and optimistic.

I am happy it turned out well.
