My sister received the same thing. We will order the notes. Do we have to pay for it? What could we have done differently? She has properties, savings, GIC in Canada, and full tuition payment in the school already. She is a software engineer and has worked for many years in the Phils. We could not think of anything anymore but just an opinion in heartbeat by an immigration officer.

My dad has also been diagnosed with cancer recently and we are on our way to applying for a visitor visa for her to come to visit for compassionate reasons. We are worried that this too will be refused but we have a letter from the doctor about my dad's condition and his prognosis.

Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks everyone!

The fact that she just applied for a study permit complicates things a little bit because there will be concerns that she won’t leave after your father passes or once she visits your father to say goodbye. She should show strong ties to her home country in order to show that she will return home.

What sort of strong ties would you provide? She has written a letter and discussed her travel history, provided all docs for her properties, savings and investments. We are lost on what else could she have provided. Has anyone have an idea what to do with this kind of refusal and any success anybody experienced after that? Thanks!

Why do most fresh grad student with hardly any ties to home country (very obvious permanent immigration intent) other than parents get approved easily?
