So that the embassy adopted the corresponding "anti-counterfeiting" mechanism and means. Once it is proved that the applicant has cheated, the visa will be refused. The reasons for refusing the visa will also be recorded in detail, which will also have an impact on your next application. When submitting materials, students must ensure the authenticity of the documents, do not contain errors, falsehoods and other information, and do not take chances.

Or immigrants who use learning as an excuse? The answers to these questions are largely reflected in your study plan.
