Hi. Can someone please guide whether we should get GIC even if not SDS? Which bank to get GIC from? Student will be sending money from UAE. If visa gets rejected what happens to GIC? Do we get full money back immediately?
Full guide
Getting a GIC when not applying under SDS: bank choice, funding source, and what happens on refund
The gic deposit must go from stident's personal bank from home country. My deposit was refunded because I sent it from my bank in Saudi, so be mindful of that.
And when gic gets refunded, you wont receive the entire amount back. They deduct processing fees and reductions due to foreign currency exchange rates
Samra Ahmad yes. I used scotia bank to deposit my gic. I suggest you read their guide carefully before making the transfer.
Amena Mustafa home country and not country of residence?
