Visa Application for fall 2016

[stmani]

Dear All,

I'm due to apply for visa to study mba program starting in sep 2016. Can anyone advise when can I submit my application in UAE embassy. Thanks

as soon as you get the letter of acceptance from the university.

Acceptance letter I already received from university but there must be a time frame set by immigration officials to apply visa for a particular session. Please advise for fall 2016 if anybody knows about it. Thanks

I've read somewhere in the forum and they said 4-6 months prior to the start of class. One applied too early and was refused and was advised to Apply again later.

Dear @stmani,

I met the canadian embassy people and asked the best time to apply for the september intake as i also will apply for the same. They said as soon as you get the offer letter you can apply for visa. But still i am planning to apply before may 1st week as ramadan month will come in june and they wont work on a regular basis.
P.S i will apply from abu dhabi visa office!

As soon as u get the letter. Refusing a visa just because u applied early is never going to happen as far as canadian visas are concerned. That is not a legitimate reason to give by the Visa Officer
