To
The Visa Officer
High Commission of Canada
Sub: Application in response to study permit refused on 22/10/2021 (S304302175)
Dear Sir/Madam,
I extend my sincere gratitude to you for allowing me to reinstate my purpose of visit to Canada and provide a valid justification in support of my motivation for the intended course. I possess working experience in varied capacities which directly or indirectly gave me a realization about my core interest to pursue a career in supply chain management. However, as I intend to explore opportunities in the existing market, I find my academic qualifications limited to a certain extent. To reserve better career opportunities in the supply chain, I firstly, need to acquire formal training. Therefore, I have keenly chosen to pursue a Graduate Certificate in Supply Chain management from Canadore College. Upon checking the GCMS notes, I gained full detail about the following grounds that sourced my visa refusal in the past. Therefore, I utilize this application to provide a valid justification and pose myself as an ideal student entrant for the chosen academic program.
- I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on the purpose of your visit.
- I am not satisfied that the motivation to pursue this program at this point in Canada is reasonable; I am not satisfied you are a bonafide student who will be successful in your program of study due to language test results refused under R216(1)
Purpose of Visit
By studying in Canada, I aim to keep up with the latest advancements and perform at the same level as my colleagues. Canadian universities have a reputation for welcoming international students and offering a range of learning experiences through workshops, seminars, and classes. Canadian universities and colleges are renowned for their exceptional culture and infrastructure that enable students to excel at higher professional education. I was especially excited to be offered the opportunity to pursue a graduate certificate program in Supply Chain Management at Canadore College, which features handpicked business lessons and proficiency in strategic thinking. The program is among the most highly regarded in the country. The opportunity to take this course through Canadore College is very appealing to me, and I am eager to explore the details of this subject under the guidance of renowned mentors I won’t be able to find anywhere else. I believe that by studying this course, I will be much better equipped to deal with the challenges of modern supply chain business. As a result of the course curriculum fitting perfectly with my career objectives and expectations, this study abroad application makes complete sense to me.
Over time, I have developed basic leadership skills and practices from years of diligent work and zeal. Nevertheless, I believe that basic knowledge of Supply Chain Management is necessary to practice supply chain management, marketing, logistics handling, and cross-cultural business practices. Thus, I feel humbled to have been offered this course and also to receive an offer letter.
Motivation to pursue the program
I have always been a curious learner. Also, I have a quick learning curve that has enabled me to come this far in my professional and educational journey. Since I completed my graduation in commerce, I embarked on a professional journey to UAE where I worked for a considerable time in varied roles. After I returned to India in 2019, my professional experience helped me to serve in the role of Office Assistant at Well-Tech Refrigerator and Air-Conditioning in Vishakhapatnam. By working closing with various stakeholders including prominent suppliers, vendors, and distributors, I realized the potential of the supply chain industry in my hometown.
Vishakhapatnam is graciously situated between the Eastern Ghats and the coast of the Bay of Bengal which makes it a hotspot for all sorts of logistics and shipment activities happening between the state, the nation, and even cross-borders. According to an estimate, Vishakhapatnam is the ninth-largest contributor to India’s gross domestic product as of 2016. Knowing these facts associated with this industry, I became curious to develop a profound career in this field. Also, because I understand the criticality of these subjects, I am all the way more interested to nourish my talents to make it a successful journey ahead. By educating myself in such a niche, I will inevitably benefit from my career in India. Supply Chain Management is growing rapidly in the business world today. In this post-graduate Certificate program, I will add to the foundation of business knowledge I already possess from my previous degree. This program covers a wider range of topics such as Information Systems, Risk Mitigation, Leadership for SCM, Marketing for SCM, Supply Chain Accounting, Global Logistics etc. that will further enhance my knowledge base. Therefore, I wish to pursue an advanced course at such an acclaimed institution. According to current business requirements, I am confident that this course will provide me with a diverse range of learning opportunities and enhance my skill set.
Additionally, I would be able to manage larger cross-functional teams and bigger roles more effectively. I will be able to gain valuable insight into planning, sourcing, producing, and delivering products and services by studying Supply Chain Management. By combining all these skills, I will be able to fill the knowledge gaps in my profile as well as become more technically able in handling complex issues, especially those involving supply chain management and strategic decision-making.
Why Canada?
My favorite global education provider has always been Canada due to its many opportunities in many different fields to help students succeed. Furthermore, Canada is unlike any other educational hub in the world. Despite employing the most competitive infrastructure, Canada offers the most affordable fees structure for international student aspirants. The Canadian education system, as I am familiar with it, does not compare to that of my country because the coursework in Canada is more practically oriented and includes internship opportunities that students need to become career-ready. Since I am an international student, I am confident to study in a country ranked seventh in the global peace index. Additionally, I can envision a linguistically comfortable stay given that English is the second most spoken language here. Throughout the Canadian study system, students are encouraged to promote and encourage business innovation to become better leaders of tomorrow. It would be amazing to experience a college life in Canada that is so lively and warm.
Why Not India: Despite having numerous courses in Supply Chain Management available in my country, I am preferring to study in Canada. While I can find a related course indigenously, the same would lack the practical orientation. The education system in India is merit-focused and oriented more towards theoretical concepts. However, I wish to gain practical exposure in my intended program. My research into the Canadian education system has made me grasp the critical approach of academic institutions in developing the overall personality of students. Moreover, the kind of international exposure that I can gain in Canada is either limited or not available in my country. Hence, I am convinced that studying in Canada is a perfect choice for me.
Why Supply Chain Management at Canadore College?
The full-time program offered by Canadore College appears to offer a much better exposure than those offered in India. The extensive curriculum at Canadore College is sure to benefit me in my future endeavors. Having also looked into similar programs in other countries, the post-graduate certificate in Supply Chain Management at Canadore College seems to be the most suitable choice for me. By enhancing my skills in procurement, negotiations, leadership, logistics, risk management, I will strengthen my caliber to grab decent employment opportunities in India. Furthermore, the international exposure gained at Canadore will put me among the most desirable candidates among the Indian employers who place high importance on international qualifications. With an outstanding education delivery method, Canadore employs advanced libraries, technology-enabled classrooms, and activity-filled simulation exercises. All of this combined with close mentor support will prepare me for outstanding performance throughout my college time and further in my professional career.
Reasons to return to India
Family Ties
My family is my strongest pillar of support and motivation to pursue this course. I am proud to introduce my family members which include my businessman father who owns a confectionery, my homemaker mother, a businessman husband, and a loving son of three years. I share very strong ties with all of my family members, especially my son. Hence, I will return to my home country as soon as I complete the chosen course. I wish to accompany my family at the earliest and I, in no circumstance will extend my stay in Canada. Similarly, to support my aging parents and to provide all the love and care to my loving husband, I seek to return home. As a family, we possess decent movable and immovable properties in which I have an equal share. I will also need to take care of all the assets in my name which is a valid justification to seek an early return to my home country. I also do not possess any family ties in Canada which makes me the most befitting student aspirant.
Future Plans
Post the completion of my course, I wish to return to my homeland and seek lucrative opportunities in India. Belonging to Vishakhapatnam gives me an edge as I can easily get an entry into the logistics industry due to my international exposure and professional background. Obtaining a formal education in the supply chain will open doors for me to approach companies such as Seaways Shipping and Logistics Limited, Adani Logistics, Future Supply Chain Solutions Ltd. Gateway Distriparks Ltd. Etc. My exposure in Canada will help me crawl up the professional ladder as Department Manager, Sr. Supply Manager, Product Head, etc. However, as I crawl up each career milestone, I intend to make my way forward to top C-suite positions in the longer run. Also, with my sharp acumen and experience in the logistics and supply chain, I will help my father’s and husband’s businesses with my timely input.
Language Proficiency
To meet the English proficiency requirements and prove myself as an eligible candidate, I have re-attempted the IELTS test and obtained an overall band score of 6.5, with no band score below 6.0. Therefore, I am grateful that my proficiency in the respective language will not be questioned when I apply for a Canadian student visa.
Conclusion
Due to my solid financial background, I am confident that I will be able to manage my stay in Canada. Both my father and husband are willing to support my education, and are more than capable to incur the basic expenses as well as miscellaneous ones. In addition, I have deposited (add figure) CAD into my GIC account for living expenses and have paid the full first-year tuition fees amounting to CAD (add figure). Since my family members are financially secure, they can sustain themselves without me while I’m away and they’re capable of helping me with any additional expenses I incur during my stay in Canada. As a family, we possess total immovable assets of CAD 200317.44 and movable assets amounting to CAD 36235.97. Attached is a list of our family’s financial details for your kind perusal.
I have travelled between India and UAE for work and personal reasons. I had never faced a visa rejection in the past; hence I possess no history of visa refusal. During my stay in UAE, I have exhibited amicable behavior and acted as per the laws laid down by the country. I have never extended my stay and returned to my home country within the stipulated time. I pledge to exhibit the same during my stay in Canada. As I am a law-abiding citizen and respect country values, I shall add to Canada’s rich and diverse culture. In no circumstance, I shall deviate from my study objectives. I will put my best efforts into following the Canadian Immigration Laws. Therefore, I request you to allow me a student permit so that I can fulfill my study aspirations and return to my home country promptly. I shall be highly grateful.
Yours Faithfully,
Kabir Singhania
