Need clarification regarding visa refusal

Hello! I need your help please, I received a refusal but I don’t understand the reason. What should I do for an appeal? Should I send my file to Nantes myself or should I go through the consulate?

Good evening, sorry for the refusal. Can you tell us how you prepared your application? The elements you included in your application, the country of submission, your institution, etc.

Good evening and thank you for the response; the country of application is Morocco and I am a foreigner; Admission to a private school as documents: the registration and receipt of payment of school fees and the preliminary agreement from Campus France, a blocking certificate provided by my guarantor accompanied by a sponsorship; a housing certificate provided by my cousin accompanied by her residence permit; plus my school documents and a work certificate since I am employed; that’s about it.

Good evening everyone, I really need your help regarding my topic please

Generally, this pattern is to indicate that there is a problem with your hosting. What’s your cousin’s status? What is the size of her house?

Thank you for your intervention, she works and the house is 68m2.

Okay, there is no problem at this level. Now, we need to look at the documents to justify the accommodation. In addition to the accommodation certificate and the residence permit, ideally, you need the lease contract and the last three rent receipts or bills (internet, water, or electricity). The residence permit must also be valid for more than a year. You should also ensure that the accommodation is not more than 30km away (this is recommended) from your school.

I had to provide the proof of accommodation, the lease contract, a receipt and an internet bill, their residence permit, their passport and a work certificate (accommodation level). I accompanied this with an explanatory letter. The distance between the school and the house is a 1-hour journey. For me, they are already everything needed, I don’t understand. Is it the distance or what?

You got reason 5, and I wonder if you didn’t submit the guarantor’s documents such as the last three payslips and/or bank statements. It may be that the consulate finds your guarantor unreliable. So far, you haven’t detailed well how you set up the blocked account or the guarantor, who set up the blocked account, what documents accompanied your blocked account, and what documents the guarantor provided.

Good evening mate,
They are asking for the last three receipts and you’ve only provided one. On top of that, I think the tax notice is also missing.

Okay, regarding the guarantor, it’s my father, he has blocked some money in his account and provided me with the AVI, the last 3 payslips, the last 6 bank statements, a work certificate, his identity card, as well as the sponsorship letter.

Okay, and the tax notice even if this person is not my guarantor?

@tinoude hello,

Where does your father live? You’re applying for a visa in Morocco if I understand correctly. With which bank are you doing your AVI? What exactly is written on your AVI? And the school, how much do you have to pay? You need to provide details on the file. Many questions.

Otherwise, you can take your private pass, to allow me to analyse your file during a private video call. As you can see, I’ve already overturned many refusals for reason 5.

As for the procedure to make an appeal, I have already detailed it here: Studying in France - Contesting a student visa refusal!
