[@rrdancel]

Yes, no visa officer looks at a file the same and some can get away with less! But there were other aspects in the application that led to the refusal but the focal point in this video was the proof of funds. It’s not to discourage prospective but provide insight on how they can better their application. Appreciate your comment tho! ☺️

It’s so weird… I have a friend who is currently studying at Lambton (same 2yr diploma program) but her proof of funds are only around 500K Philippine Peso and no sponsor, but her visa was approved. 🤔 Is it because of her well written SOP or something else?

It could be several factors and also depends on the visa officer reviewing her file. Not all visa officers look at a file the same. But I’m glad it worked out well for your friend! ❤️

[@theorigialshan9846]

Hi Rachel any suggestions if it’s a good idea using your business account for proof of funds?

[@adigur]

My questions are 1. Why they want students to leave Canada after completing their education? Canada is an immigration friendly country right? 2. Can education loan (enough amount for 2 years tution+misc expenses) statements from bank also lead to visa rejection?

[@jmcatolico8748]

Hello. These are just my two cents for this questions. 1. I believe the reason that they want students or they want to be ensured that students will leave after they graduated is because the reason was to only study in Canada. Not because they want to live there(well we all know that it’s one way and one step to get a score for PR application). Just like various VISA applications, you have to ensure them that you won’t be staying there for other purposes other than studying. Canada is is an immigration friendly country, yes, but you still have to proof clean intentions upon visiting the country. 2. I believe, yes. Because that just means that you/your sponsor doesnt actually have the capacity to support your stay in the country. I believe you have to show proof that the money you have was accumulated over the years or there is a in/out cash flow. Not just a one bulk of cash deposit in one time. Cause there were some cases that the money was just put there in the account just to show proof of funds, but once approved, it will be returned to the owner, meaning it’s just for show. You have to proof that you have the capacity to be able to sustain your finances and study in Canada and won’t be doing any illegal stuff to acquire money. I hoped I helped :)

[@jmcatolico8748]

Additional for question 1, since you are applying for a Student Visa, you really have to proof that you are just going to study and would go home after the study period, no other intentions. If you plan to pursue and apply for PR afterwards, you still can do it. The immigration officer already know that you are planning to get a PR in Canada since being an international is one of the steps to get a score, and most use these approach. You just have to proof that you are not planning to do anything other than being a student. Once your Visa is approved, they cant stop you for your next steps :)

As far as I know you do graphic designing right? And if so...can you give me an honest review whether taking graphic designing as a career a good choice or not

[@rrdancel]

Honestly, I wasn’t able to find a job using the education I got in Canada. Due to time pressure, I had to hop on the first skilled job that I managed to get - which was not related to graphic design at all. I am now learning to apply those skills in what I currently do as a content creator. But your circumstances may be different from mine. As far as I know, it is an in-demand job here in Vancouver (to say the least) as most businesses heavily rely on getting their word across through digital means. So still worth pursuing (especially if you like it :P)

For a 2 year program, is it required to show proof of funds for 2 year tuition fee and 2 years cost of living even when I’m applying with my husband (sp + owp)?

[@rrdancel]

Generally, it’s better to show at least that amount or over. Because the main concern the visa officer will have is if you will be able to financially support yourself and your family during your stay. We can’t rely on future income bc we don’t know what lies ahead. So in the POV of the visa officer they want to see if you can manage from the get go, so you won’t be financially vulnerable in a new country.
