Request for clarification regarding visa refusal Reason 5

Hello.

I am originally from Cameroon, and I received a visa refusal last September from the French consulate in Douala for the reason « the information provided to justify the purpose and conditions of the stay is incomplete and/or unreliable. » The reason is quite vague, so I don’t know what mistake I made during the preparation of my application. Below you will see the documents that constituted my application in relation to the reason for refusal.

/Accommodation Section.

My aunt by marriage took care of providing me with a certificate of accommodation. She lives in Île-de-France, and the journey from her place to my institution is about 45 minutes. She attached the following documents to the certificate of accommodation:

  • A copy of her passport.

  • The last 3 payslips with a tax notice.

  • Property tax.

/Financial Guarantor Section.

My aunt by marriage also provided me with a certificate of financial support for an amount of 350 euros per month since the accommodation is free. She attached to this:

  • The last 3 payslips (she has 2 adult children, one of whom is already working and the other is at university, and she has a monthly income of about 5,000€).

  • The last 3 bank statements.

  • A copy of her passport.

  • Proof of family relationship (her marriage certificate with my uncle, who is my mother’s elder brother).

I have been admitted to MBA1 in a private business school in Paris. The tuition is about 10,000€, and I made a deposit of about 3,000€. They provided me with the enrolment certificate and the payment certificate detailing the transactions made.

Please, I would need your help to know where I went wrong so that I can correct it for my next visa application.

Thank you.

Welcome @jajoba_robe

Based on what you’ve told us, you still have €7,000 in tuition fees remaining. Have you justified the payment of this significant amount of money?

Feel free to take your Private Pass for a private consultation.

Kind regards

Thank you for your feedback.

I had not explained how to pay the remainder of the tuition fees.
