What should I do if my Canada visa is refused?
Refusal letters usually cite insufficient funds, unclear purpose, or incomplete documentation. You may reapply with stronger evidence or appeal only if local law provides that right—many consular decisions are final. Address each stated reason, avoid identical submissions, and consider professional review of your file before paying another fee.
