https://nowtoronto.com/news/the-struggle-of-getting-a-canadian-study-permit-reasonable-d/

In sum, the application and determination process for study permit applications is weighed heavily against the applicant. Applicants are led to believe that the process is straightforward and formulaic, but are then assessed on criteria that they never knew existed. Evaluating officers can unreasonably apply these hidden criteria, ignore evidence, and at times ignore the law itself. The only true appeal process - a judicial review before the Federal Court - is costly and time-consuming, thus such appeals are rare. It is a lot cheaper to simply re-apply. As such, there is rarely any accountability for evaluating officers who make grossly inappropriate decisions, perpetuating a culture of complacency and impunity.

This is not to say that all study permit applications get refused. Between 2009 and 2013, approximately 73 per cent of all study permit applications were approved. However, this still leaves tens of thousands of people who were denied an opportunity to study in Canada, many for dubious reasons. For those who get refused, the consequences can be exceptionally serious. A refusal can delay professional advancement in the applicant’s home country, or stall that advancement altogether. A lack of proper education can lead to poverty. A refusal can also compromise the applicant’s future ability to visit Canada for any reason, since officers will undoubtedly read an ulterior motive into any subsequent application. Finally, many countries look negatively on anyone with past Canadian refusals, and are less likely to grant visas, further limiting those people’s opportunities. In this way, these refusals carry with them long-lasting effects.

这人(尼泊尔人)雅思7分,VO拒签原因里面有“language abilities”。

https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/study-permit-rejected-twice.594836/

My study permit for winter 2019 is rejected today
the reason given by them

Your proposed studies are not reasonable in light of one or more of: your qualifications, previous studies, missing marksheets, academic record, level of establishment, language abilities, or your future prospects and plans.

I submitted all my mark sheets, transcripts, strong SOP. I had completed my bachelor of civil engineering and got accepted to University of Ottawa for master of engineering civil engineering

previous reason of rejection for fall 2018
You have not provided sufficient evidence of English Language proficiency and I am not satisfied
you meet the language requirments of the Designated Educational Institution.
Based on your english test results, I am not satisfied you meet the language.


previously, i had applied for study permit with the PTE score of 72. Following my previous rejection, I took ILETS and scored 7 not less than 6.5. For the second time, I applied my study permit application with ILETS score and got a rejection as above.

Briefly, I was admitted to Universitly of Ottawa for fall 2018 and winter 2019 in Master of Engineering Civil Engineering.
Profile:
BE in Civil Engineering with 79% (college topper)
Work Experience 4.5 years (3 years in construction projects and 1.5 years as an assistant lecturer for bachelor level civil engineering)
PTE 72 and ILETS 7 (L: 7.5, R:7, W:6.5, S:6.5)

Can I still apply my study permit for JAN 2019 intake? Another thing is that University of Ottawa doesn't defer admission for next term

4. travel history 就真的很扯了。 楼主不是白本,应该就是强堆上去的原因。因为调档出来之后,这一条的解释是:regional travel only. 此处一万个白眼。。。

      14. 旅行历史证明:由于一签被拒的原因有一条travel history, 楼主想来想去,也就只可能因为楼主护照上少了一个入境章(自助通关),楼主去出入境管理中心打印了记录,并去机场补了个章。---过签后,退还。

https://www.quora.com/As-a-visa- ... ish-applicants-knew

I am a retired Canadian visa officer and what a question!

I would like to expand this question a little bit to, “what do you wish applicants and their counsel knew.” A lot of visa applicants to Canada have representatives.

A Visa Officer is a Career Bureaucrat

Visa Officers are not doing visa work because they are on some sort of holy mission. It's a job. They want to get promoted. They work in a hierarchy. They have to please their bosses. Emotionalising about visa officers and speculating about their views on immigration approaches being meaningless. They aren't there to impose their views and their supervisors, plus their headquarters in Ottawa, wouldn't let them get away with it.

Visa Officers are unionized. Management and labour stresses are not uncommon. When I was working many of the managers liked to claim that the overseas section of Citizenship and Immigration had an “authoritarian tradition”, meaning they had a right to be mean and abusive to the lower downs. My response was, Government of Canada departments aren't entitled to traditions. They are there to obey federal labour standards, human rights legislation and their contracts with their bargaining units. This did not make me popular with some of the managers.

That authoritarian thing had a legal wrinkle to it. Some managers wanted total control. However, court decisions had established that “he/she who hears must decide” and that managers must not “fetter the discretion” of visa officers.

However, that fettering manager may be the one who is writing your all-important annual performance appraisal. One bad appraisal could kill your career. This created a certain amount of pressure to bend the rules and make that manager happy. Let the manager fetter you and you might get ahead. (This sounds a little bit like a certain lifestyle!)

I hope the specious “authoritarian tradition” argument is now long gone.

The Law's the Law

Visa officers are required to implement the law, not to make it. Other than a very few senior officers visa officers have little or no input into immigration legislation. There is no point whatsoever in haranguing them about the injustices of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. Really, in the words of the immortal Elvis, they just work there. Write your Member of Parliament and stop wasting visa officer time.

Visa Officers Are Not There to Help

The visa officer's client is the Canadian public, not the applicant. It's nice to let a good immigrant in but that's not the point. Visa officers are law enforcement officials, not social workers or immigration advocates.

Visa Officers are Only Visa Officers When They Are at Work

As my career went on I got increasingly tired when I was at some party or bar, somebody found out what I did for a living and felt they needed to “vent” their frustrations on me. At 5:00 P.M. I ceased to be a visa officer and reverted to being a bisexual Jewish-Canadian from Winnipeg. Sometimes I had to remind the venters of this rather forcefully.

Living Outside of Canada Is Not Necessarily Jolly

For some years now the Government of Canada has been trying to centralize visa processing in Canada. It's way cheaper, it's much more technologically feasible than it used to be and other countries do it.

However if a visa officer is working abroad it does not at all mean that they are living some sort of privileged life.

When I started working as a visitor officer in 1978 Canada had a lot of visa offices in “nice” places, Madrid, Athens, Stockholm, Birmingham, Marseilles, San Francisco, Atlanta, etc. Some of these visa offices had a rather “collegial” atmosphere. The manager’s door was always open and you could sit down and have a talk.

However, visa demand in the developed world dried up. The number of applications from the developing world increased massively. The solution from International Region of Citizenship and Immigration Canada was to set up big “factory” offices in places like Beijing, New Delhi and Manila. Places like that tend to be horribly polluted and quite unsafe. You see very poor people in front of you all the time. Working in a factory is kind of impersonal and your professional status isn't necessarily very high.

I was posted in New Delhi and Manila. I met good people but these cities were not fun, not at all. Daily life had a lot to do with survival.

How Much Longer is There Going to Be Visa Officers?

By the time I retired single assignment and temporary duty officers were taking over a lot of the overseas visa work. More and more of the rest of it was being sent back to Canada for processing.

When the Canada Border Services Agency came into existence the role of visa officers in overseas fraud investigations largely came to an end. The CBSA took it over.

Not very many visa applicants get interviewed anymore so that iconic “visa interview”, the encounter between that legendary visa officer and the beseeching applicant, has drastically faded down. Applicants and their counsel maybe should know that the day of the career visa officer may be coming to a close. A different type of system seems to be replacing it.

(Additional Answer)

Today is August 31, 2017. Just now I responded to a comment about my original answer of yesterday. The topic is, is visa officer work monotonous with no intellectual contribution?

It occurred to me that my response is really an additional answer to the original question. Here it is:

Certainly in the latter part of my career it was. (monotonous with no intellectual contribution.)

One met managers who were so pleased with the “authoritarian tradition” that they saw anybody who was actively thinking as a threat.

At one time most visa applicants were interviewed. Immigration applicants sometimes received counselling. There was also recruitment and promotion, actively looking for good immigrants. As work stresses increased (and as more information about Canada became available on the Web) these activities withered away.

Career visa officers are part of the rotational Canadian Foreign Service. That is, they make a career-long commitment to live overseas as required. However, by the end of my career, a lot of the best foreign assignments were being given to single-assignment and temporary duty officers from the domestic side of Citizenship and Immigration Canada who had made no such commitment.

At one time visa officers did “reporting”, that is they would file analyses of social and economic issues that were effecting the emigration climate in our source countries. However the political officers from what is now Global Affairs Canada considered that this was an infringement on their professional “turf”, and objected strongly. Reporting was curtailed.

I did fraud investigation work as a visa officer. It was at times very interesting. However CBSA took over this work.

While line-level visa officers had very limited opportunities to transfer to other work streams within the foreign service or to a permanent job in Canada, senior managers did. Not infrequently managers saw the visa service as a stepping-stone to a more prestigious political, aid or trade job. Once the “collegial atmosphere” that I mentioned had evaporated there was little or no solidarity between senior managers and line-level officers and very little concern about the quality of visa officer working life.

In the long-term, over my career, there was a lot of pressure to reduce visa processing to a clerical activity. The Treasury Board was never at peace with the cost of maintaining visa officers and their families overseas. Clericalizing the work meant that much of it could be returned to low-wage processing centres in Canada. I should mention that much of the work in Canada’s visa offices is done by locally-engaged staff, often working at a low-waged clerical level.

In general what I am describing is a “dumbing down” of line-level Canadian visa officer work. This served both the purposes of Treasury Board and managers who deeply resented any sort of challenging behaviour by line-level visa officers. Much of what happened was poor labour relations and abuse of line visa officers and their careers.

What a Visa Officer Considers

Visa officers at Canadian embassies and high commissions have a responsibility to uphold Canadian law, in particular Canada’s Immigration and Refugee Protection Act.

This means the visa officer must be satisfied that someone applied for a study permit:
must be a genuine student, intends to study and is able to pursue the course of study
must leave Canada at the end of the authorized study permit time
will not contravene the conditions of admission
does not belong to a category of persons who are inadmissible to Canada.

Your admission letter is only the first part of what a visa officer looks at. This admission offer only confirms that Lakeland College believes you have the academic and other requirements to attend the college.

Note for Indian students: To be considered under the SPP, you must have graduated in second class / division two or better or have an average greater than 50%. If you don’t have a 50% average in core classes, or if you have had a large number of fails, a visa officer may not be satisfied that you have the intent or ability to study in Canada or you will attempt to remain in Canada or work without authorization.

It is extremely important that you submit all the documents and information required to complete your study permit application.
Visa officers will also look at:

Your ties to Canada and your country of residence --This includes immigration status, employment, family ties, property and other things that connect you to your country and to Canada.

Your travel history – Have you travelled outside your country? Have you been refused a visa to Canada or another country? Did you declare those refusals? Are you a serial applicant who has applied again and again in a variety of visa categories. If you don’t declare any prior refusals or misrepresent yourself in anyway, you can be ruled inadmissible to Canada for a period of 5 years.

Does your proposed course of study “make sense” given your personal circumstances, rather than just being a means to gain initial entry to Canada. Is what you will study consistent with your personal finances, study history and employment history. Are comparable programs widely available in India? If so, why do you plan to go to Canada? What will the return on investment be for you the applicant.

Do you have the academic and language skills to undertake the proposed study. Your previous scholastic record is a key aspect of the visa officer’s assessment. If you have had weak academic performance in your country with the benefit of a family support system and being familiar with teaching norms and expectations—the visa officer may be concerned about your potential to be successful at studying in Canada. Strong language abilities and prior academic success generally mean you will be better prepared and have a better chance of success studying in Canada. Studying in Canada involves a significant financial investment for applicants and their families. Sometimes when a student isn’t successful there is incentive to “recoup” the lost investment by remaining in Canada without authorization and working illegally.
