 Applying your student visa successfully from Mongolia to Canada


Mongolia is a developing country and getting visa to come to Canada is a big challenge. Too many prospective students denied from visa simply because they don't know how to correctly fill out the forms and follow up with visa office.

If I was a visa officer, I would love to give all the students a chance to come to school here in Canada based on their merit alone, since that was the only thing students had back then.

I truly believe an international students from any counties regardless of its poor or richness, work very hard. I know many students who worked full-time and studied full-time. It is not easy but you know at the end it worth it.

So if you really want to become a student and live and work in Canada here is my advise to you:

When you apply for your visa you need to have following documentation ready: ( Let's assume that you already got accepted and have your school documentation in place)
  • Application form filled out clearly and accurate. The dates, work palaces and names make sure all accurate and clear. Just a simple date mistake can make you disqualify for visa. 

    For example: you may think born June 5, 1987 can be typed 5/6/1987, however, visa officer may refuse that you have incorrect date because he or she thinks it should have been 6/5/1987.

  • Usually paying your tuition in advance for up to one year and supplying that information alone with your application doubles your chance to get visa.

    The reason behind this is: If you pay your full year tuition then most likely you are going to school and continue your study. It takes quite sometimes to get used to new country and learn to live on your own.

    All colleges and universities offer refund guarantee if you are unable to obtain your visa. Usually they will refund all your money less the administration fees. You need to give them the refusal letter from CIC.

  • Your ties going back to Mongolia. It could be most important part of your application. If you have family or your friends who can offer your position in their company after you complete your training, then you need a letter from them. Attach that letter along with your application. 

  • Mail your application along with your passport by registered mail. It takes them about 3 months to make decision. 

  • Request Multi-entry visa. This way you can only apply once. otherwise you have to apply for visa every time you visit your home and come back.

    Sometimes the visa officer also think that multi-entry visa is better than single entry visa request, since you will be in and out several times during your stay.

  • Be prepared to accept the both decision. Statistically you have 50% chance to get visa. If you do your paperwork accordingly you will increase your chance more favorable to you. 

    If you don't get your student visa, then you need to prepare to go for another one, and another one until you get one.  It will all depend on how badly you really want it. 

  • You can do it all on your own. I heard people charge you to do this for anywhere between 10-15k. That is almost your whole years school tuition fee. It is not worth paying that much to get just a visa. You could pay that money to your school instead.

    Again, you and your family need to decide what is good for you. Remember! No one can guarantee your student visa especially if you Mongolian and applying visa through Beijing, China to come to Canada. 
Here is a list of schools in Ontario GTA area where you can apply to become  an international student.
