Hi. Please share your time line. Did you receive biometric instructions ? Or just refusal?
Look we are not professionals here but in most cases it has been noticed that most of the students are unable to convince visa officer that how relevant our future studies is with our professional experience plus less employment opportunities in Pakistan specially in computer sciences are very well known. You have to convince visa officer that how the MSC would benifit you in your future employment in your home country and you must shows ties with your home country which will bring you back. In my personal experience you should consult with consultant or some immigration lawyer. Every other applicant situation is totally different form each other in terms of finance, previous education and professional background, travel history.
Personally i hired a consultant to do this for me. While drafting my SOP he asked me to provide all professional background and job type plus educational background comparison between pak and Canada. When i provided him with my draft i thaught i have written it very well. But he insist me for further 8 more times to correct it. And finally he took all relevant info from me and prepare his own SOP on behalf of me. Do not worry about amount of pages you will write. Explain as much as you want in order to convince VO. Thats all i can tell you. My application is in queue since 25 June. No update so far.

Do we have to show embassy any proof of where we would stay once we will arrive in canada
For students its definitely he will live around or near their college or university. Otherwise it has never been asked during application where we will stay. But during the interview if conducted. They could ask you. You could simply say that doing all accomodation arrangements prior to getting study permit does not make sense and definitely after getting study permit i will find residence near school. There are several real estate agents websites in canada who arrange accomodation.

The most common web site for finding accommodation in any locality in Canada is below.
www.kijiji.ca
you can use google maps to find out distance from university to advertised location, published in this website.
One more thing because most of students contact landlords by sitting at home (Pakistan) so that's why landlords ask student to sign lease
for 1 year or 8 months actually they try to take advantage from them. Don't do that, just convince them you need residence for 4 months and then you will renew lease afterwards. The reason behind it, once you get there after some time you want to live with muslim students becasue of several reason for example, it can be cheap residence some where else, halal food and place near mosque etc.

I am new to the process of Canada study visa.

Can anybody please tell me how much proof of funds is required for a Bachelors (four years) course if tuition fees is $19,000 per year? I'm just waiting for my F.Sc second year result and after that I would apply for Canada study permit.

Also tell me the chances of student visa approval, especially after F.Sc.

U need to show enough funds for the first year of study.
In your case atleast $19,000

Chances of getting visa: no one can tell u :D it all depends on how strong your case is and how the VO is convinced that u will return back to yr home country

I would disagree with @adiben. The minimum amount of money that you need to show is tuition fee for the first year plus 10,000 cad. So in your case that would be 29,000 cad.

Chances depends on your application. try to go through all of my posts and threads through my profile. There is a lot of information there. Do the same with every experienced member and you'll learn a lot. Also check the reasons of refusal of applicants on this forum and avoid those mistakes.

I got the medical call and have even passed the medical. But after my medical I received a request to submit IELTS results by 6 August, and I got this request on 6 July. I have since then tried to register for the 21st July IELTS test, but for some reason the payment was cancelled and the registration couldn't go through. I might have to register for the 28th July IELTS test, but I'll be getting it's result on the 10th of August.
Is there any way of getting an extension in that 6 Aug deadline? If I take the 28 July wala test, I will get its result on 10 Aug, so how can I tell the VO that I'll be getting the result on the 10th ?

Well i guess you should book ielts as soon as possible and send them the inquiry with ielts registration document what ever you will receive either email or by hand. Plus inform them you will receive the IELTS result after 13 days. And request them to provide you grace period of submitting IELTS beyound the result date so that you would be able to submit it to them timely.
Please not that, do not keep silent.. you have to respond them otherwise as per CIC they could refuse your visa application after 30 days.

Yes lol, I don't plan on remaining silent specially when medical call was made and it was also passed.
So I should mention this and attach the registration confirmation of IELTS in the CSE? And I shud also request an extension to the 6 Aug deadline in the CSE itself? Because the document requested has to be uploaded on the MyCIC portal, and only a single document can be uploaded there.
