Hello,

Its very feasible. The onus is on you to repackage your new application to meet the SP requirements and to address the VO's concerns as see fit.

As long as your situation has changed, there is no harm using a new letter to explain your current situation, study plan and tackling the refusal reasons. So, you are on the right path.

BTW, what does your GCMS Notes say?

Regards
Thanks for the response John.
I have just asked someone in Canada to help me request for GCMS note to have full understanding of the reason(s) for refusal before I will know how to address them in the next application. I will update the house as soon as I get that and ask for advice where necessary.

Regards,

Hello,

You have to first do some research on your own to have certain level of understanding about what you are going into. This may help you ask specific questions that best fit your situation.

You should do some reading on the thread to get some useful hint. You can as well follow @gcmsgram on Twitter. They will give you free answers to your questions.

Hello,

In most cases from my personal observation, applicants who see this on their dashboard ends up getting MER.

Don't get too excited though, but what I am trying to point out is to stay hopeful.

Best of Luck

Hello
Please I am hoping to apply once my offer letter is out.
My issue is I operate my salary account , as well as my husbandwith a microfinance cos of the benefits I enjoy.

Please will it pose a trait to my application if I apply using a microfinance accout statement .

I wouldn't mind instructing them to send it directly to the embassy if there is anything like that.

I will have my letter of introduction from my employer and pay slips to back me up .

Please advice

Greetings All,

I took my time to transcribe Justin Trudeau's speech on new measures for international travelers to Canada. Enjoy!

''Starting next week, all international passenger flights must land only at the following four airports. Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto and Montreal.
In addition to the pre-boarding test we require; as soon as possible in the coming weeks, we will be introducing mandatory PCR testing at the airport for people returning to Canada. Travelers will then have to wait for 3-days at an approved hotel for their test results at their own expense which is expected to be more than $2,000CAD. Those with negative test results will then be able to quarantine at home under significantly increased surveillance, and enforcement. Those with positive tests will be immediately required to quarantine at designated government facilities to make sure they are not carrying variants of potential concern. We will also in the coming weeks, non-essential travelers to show a negative test before entry at the land border with the US, and we are working to stand-up additional testing requirements for land travel.''- Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister Canada.

What do I think about this new measures you might ask? Well, I would say welcome to NAZI-CANADA. I personally would not want to have anything to do with this kind of Canada, under this kind of totalitarianism. The same one we are trying to escape from in Africa, where freedom, liberty, civil rights of the people are sacrificed on the altar of 'keeping people safe'.

Anyone still wishing to pursue studies in Canada can be my guest, but for me, its no longer my cup of tea, not the Canada I had in mind or dreamed of. That one probably died 10-15 years ago. This is an Orwellian '1984' Canada which I would not like to be part of at all.

This new measures will have a detrimental impact on study permit approvals, as well as welfare and lifestyle of international students in Canada.

My sincere opinion. It should not influence anyone's decision to either proceed to Canada or not.

I wish everyone the very best.

Cheers.

Good evening Omafor.


“In addition to the pre-boarding test we require; as soon as possible in the coming weeks, we will be introducing mandatory PCR testing at the airport for people returning to Canada”.

I might be wrong, but doesn’t this mean this test is intended for just returning travelers and not first time travelers. The initial proposal for this measure was to curb unnecessary vacations and traveling for Canadians. I don’t see why new students shouldn’t be exempt from this measure. Furthermore, I saw a Twitter post where a student messaged his college Lambton college and they told him that he doesn’t need the 3 day plan. I think absolute clarifications needs to be made about groups that are exempt from this new measure.

I have a picture of the reply from lambton but couldn’t upload: here’s the link https: //ibb.co/ XFR8dFC (delete the space in between to access the link)

I hope you are right Nevertheless, why restrict people's desire or intention to travel, freedom of movement which the Canadian Charter guarantees?
It still looks ugly to me. I am sure the measures are not yet in place as at the time the Lambton person was responding to the tweet in question.
Let's see what happens.

Cheers.
