Hi guys.

On the IMM1294 form, under cost of studies, for the room and board: I wrote $7,294 which was the cost of the room and board in my university of choice. However after applying for my visa, I decided to go for another room type and the cost is now $9,800 for room and board. Will they verify with the university about this?
Personally I don't know if they would consider this misrepresenting as I changed my mind later on. Also, I have enough funds in the bank to cover this type of room and board.

Any input will be appreciated!
 
I don't actually think that would be a big deal or reason for refusal to be honest. As long as they can see you can afford the tuition and cost of living , you should be fine

They just ask the estimated costs, the cost like these can differ time to time ! So no need to worry!
 
In unlikely event asked just say extra cost is for a room with an ensuite bathroom. Seriously do not worry about it as most people estimate living costs from 10k upwards and room rates fluctuate all the time.
 
Thanks for replying back guys. I feel assured now.

@Bs65: That's actually true. The room I opted for has an ensuite bathroom. Thanks for the suggestion.
 
Yes these are only estimated costs. be assured
