Canadian visa misunderstanding

1. I mistakenly thought that the total amount of funds was enough.

Comparing the requirements of the British, American, Australian and Canadian embassies for the deposit, the key lies not in the amount, but in the length of history and the rationality of the source. Although the embassy no longer requires that the guarantee fund must have a history of 18 months, in addition to proving that the guarantee fund is not temporarily made up for studying abroad, the guarantor should also have enough proof to show that his deposit and income are consistent. However, if the applicant really has the financial strength, but has no long-term deposit, then as long as he can give a detailed and convincing explanation and as much relevant convincing evidence as possible, the chances of getting a visa are still very high.

2. I mistakenly think that I can use a loan or mortgage as a guarantee.

There is usually only one way of visa guarantee in Canada-cash deposit in the bank, no loan and no mortgage, stocks or funds or even real estate must be sold and realized, but the time of stock trading, base speculation or real estate speculation can be counted as the history of deposits. In addition, if some banks' wealth management products are guaranteed, they don't need to be realized, and they can be directly used as deposits.

3. I mistakenly think that I can get a visa if I have money at home.

As an immigrant country that does not study abroad, Canada attaches great importance to the quality of students, because many international students will eventually choose to stay in Canada and become a part of their society, so Canadian visa officers tend to accept good students with excellent quality and outstanding ability, even if their family economic situation is generally worse. For many well-off students with poor grades, poor performance or long academic interruption, the chances of getting a Canadian visa are much lower than those of ordinary students with excellent academic performance.

I mistakenly think that all visas need my signature.

When Canadian students apply for a visa, they will be informed of the results within an average of 65,438+0-2 months (only three weeks for those who take the risk medical examination). There are three results: first, the visa is refused, and the passport is stamped with a letter of refusal to inform the reasons; The second is to pass, attach the visa to the passport and send it to me or entrust an intermediary; The third is to inform the interview and go to the embassy for an interview within 30 days, from Monday to Thursday at 9: 00 am-11:30. After the interview, the vast majority will tell the results immediately, and very few will tell them later. Therefore, not every applicant needs an interview, but only when the applicant's materials need to be explained or the original documents need to be verified or the applicant's background is complicated. Moreover, since the Canadian Visa Application Center began to receive visa application documents on its behalf in June 2008, Canadian visa applications have basically only the first two results, and there is almost no need for interviews.

I mistakenly thought that the rejection of other countries would lead to the rejection of Canada.

As long as the visa is not refused because of false information or revoked because of bad records, the history of visa refusal in most other countries will not affect the visa application in Canada. Many students have been refused visas by the American embassy many times and applied for visas in Canada instead. For fear of refusing to sign again, they changed their passports and sent them over. At the same time, some reference books for studying abroad say that if the United States refuses a visa, Canada will also be refused a visa. These misleading results have caused many applicants to suffer mental and economic losses, and even their visa applications have been rejected.

6. I mistakenly thought that the visa had a back door.

Some parents think that embassy staff or senior officials can get preferential treatment or change the visa officer's decision. In fact, even the Canadian Prime Minister cannot overturn the visa officer's decision. Visa officers have completely independent power of interpretation, and no one may interfere with the legality and independence of their work. This is the law.

7. I mistakenly thought that my parents studying in Canada could not accompany me.

In view of the increasing number of young overseas students in Canada, the Canadian Embassy has opened the visa policy for visiting relatives. As long as the parents of children studying in Canada have no bad exit records, most of them can get long-term visit visas for up to ten years.

8. I mistakenly think that the embassy visa can be used once and for all.

A student visa obtained by a student before going abroad can only enable the student to obtain a passport to Canada. When students enter Canada, they must also obtain a Canadian study permit with visas, embassy visas, admission notices and other documents. Both visas and study permits are time-limited, which are generally shorter than the actual study time required by students in Canada. In many cases, they only have one or two years. Students must go through the renewal formalities three months before the school license expires, and whether they can get the renewal smoothly usually depends on their previous performance during their study in Canada.
