Avoiding Fatal Mistakes in Your Final Application
Once you receive your ITA, accuracy becomes more critical than ever. Small errors can lead to immediate rejection for being 'incomplete'.
Top Mistakes to Avoid
- Job Reference Letter Issues: Ensure your letter includes job duties, salary, hours per week, and your employer's signature. A simple 'proof of employment' is not enough.
- Inconsistent Dates: Your personal and address history must have no gaps. Any overlap or missing months will raise red flags.
- Incomplete Scans: Check every single page of your scanned documents. If a stamp on the back of a page is missing, the document might be rejected.
- Proof of Funds Expiry: IRCC requires a recent bank letter (usually from the last 6 months) detailing your current balance and account history.
- Not Disclosing Everything: Be honest about previous visa rejections from any country. Failure to do so is considered misrepresentation.
🚨 Caution
A rejection for an 'incomplete application' means you lose your spot in the pool and have to start over from scratch.
