Hi
My cousin applied for study permit along wife (OWP) and 2 children (1 yr and 3 yrs) for MBA and got rejected. The GSMS says, the VO was not satisfied as PA does not have strong family ties as traveling with so small child/family together for such high cost expenses. He showed genuine over $100K cash that he got from sale of property with all tax papers etc. The VO also said, the cash is acceptable but does not go with line to his income. Note he did show his actual paper income as he does have another consultancy income but normally it was no Cash. However the property value actually covers most of his expenses. His profile is good. He got 7 in IELTS and got admission in 2 universities, Canada west and U Windsor. The application was rejected with CWest. He is doing a very good job back home.... So our questions are:
1. If he reapply should he do single application or should he try again with family? He wants to see if along family any possibility since kids are very young leave with single mom at home country
2. Should he apply with the same school or U W? Note UW is little better school in ranking however cost is little higher (about 4k difference)
3. One reason was he does not have travel history. Actually he did have a travel history but it was with his old pp and he lost and thus did not/ignored to mention. Can he mention that now, even he does not have any prove? It was long back when he was young he travelled to Thailand for family vacation but again long long ago.
