Refusal rates for Temporary Resident Visas (TRV), Work Permits, and Study Permits

Canada has visa offices spread all over the world. The statistics below were provided by IRCC and collected from its visa offices across the globe. It is important to note that offices that register high refusal rates are those where most of the applicants applied on their own without expert help.

Often, people apply multiple times and getting refused before retaining the services of a professional. Sadly if a person’s visa application is refused once, they have higher chances of getting another refusal when they reapply.

Rameh Law Firm has helped many persons enter Canada after several refusals on their previous visa applications. If you’re looking to apply for a Study Permit, Work permit, or TRV visitor’s visa, get in touch with us today for expert help.
