Good Luck. Your lucky you got IELTS done before pandemic. I will have to wait for IELTS. A question, I graduated in DEC 2019, Is it necessary to cover the gap of 7-9 months? because I did no job because of pandemic.

AND, what course are you going to attend?

This isn't counted as gap no reason to justify it everyone knows about the pandemic

I completed my undergraduate degree in DEC 2019. I Would like to apply study visa under SDS program. Booked IELTS but it keeps getting canceled due to pandemic. Did doulingo with 120 Score (I know it is not accepted under SDS, not sure about non-SDS either). I have a decent travel history (9 countries + a valid untraveled US Visa) but I have about 5-6 visit visa refusals from different countries as well.

My CGPA is 3.9, 88% marks.

1. I am wondering if my visit visa refusals of other countries are going to make my study visa application weak.
2. I am married and want to take my wife with me too. OR applying as single applicant is good option and applying wife OWP at later stage?
3. Do I have to take equivalency certificate from WES as well? I always thought that WES certification only required for immigration purpose. Is that so?

1: No but make sure you attach old passports and mention visit refusals of other countries if asked
2: There are people who have done and and gotten visa but i suggest applying for yourself and then applying for your wife know that getting OWP is ridiculously hard at this point
3: most post graduate studies require WES but not all of them depends on your chosen university

Has visa process started??? i am very confused... wait has been too long...

resumed on july 1st i think

1. Do they ask visit visa refusals of other countries in the application? I guess they do. I have never applied any Canadian visa so I am not sure. I will definitely provide all the refusals but was wondering if it can work against me.

2. I didnt get you. Are you saying applying OWP separately is hard? How?

3. Noted.

As far I remember you applied visa with your spouse? and got the visa. Lucky you. Was it your first attempt ?
