 Now there's a fad for applying abroad without weighing in the pros and cons of it and possible financial damages it can cause. For most consultancies and agents students are milch cows and they only care about the money. There are some consultancies/agents, who genuinely care about students and provide genuine and expert guidance and only take applications that have good odds of succeeding, tell students clearly about everything beforehand and let students make an informed decision. Clearly, such consultancies/agents deserve respect.

It is important that students know how much money they will lose in the processing if their student visa to Canada is denied. Here's the tentative amount, given by a student. It might vary, and be even more depending on your case.

1. Consultancy Charge (if you use one) - NPR 25,000 (Twenty-five thousand).
2. Offer Letter Charge - NPR 5,000 (Five thousand)
3. Certificates from Ward Office: NPR 11,000 (Eleven thousand : varies from one ward to another)
4. No Objection Letter: NPR 2,000 (Two thousand)
5. Translation (of Lalpurja and other income related documents that are in Nepali) and notary costs : NPR 5,000 -NPR 10,000 (Five to Ten Thousand)
6. CA Audit Report cost: NPR 2,500 (Two thousand five hundred).
7. Bank Balance Certificate with income source : NPR 50,000 (Fifty Thousand) (If you intend to take a loan, add interest for the loan).
8. VFS Charges
   DEMAND DRAFT 
   Student visa: INR 7,890 = NPR 12,624
   Biometric Fees: INR 4,470 = NPR 7152
   VFS Processing Charges = NPR 1000 (learn about the current charges from VFS)
9. Nepal Government Tax (2%) + Bank Charges while sending fees of 6 months to Canada: NPR 15,500
10. Administration Charges deduction by university while reimbursing (refunding) tuition fees including money transfer costs: Almost NPR-60,000-70,000 (Sixty to seventy thousand) 
    
    There will be a lot of hidden charges as well like travel expenses and other. So altogether, an applicant will lose around NPR 2 Lakhs 50 thousand to 3 lakhs, if his/her visa gets rejected. It's a huge sum and applicant needs to be prepared for it. 
    
    I have not taken into account the IELTS fee charged by British Council Nepal which is NPR 23,000 for Paper-Based test and NPR 21,500 for Computer-delivered test and Passport charge for first passport NPR 10,000 if taken from Department of Passports in 3 days because you can use those documents later as well. However please note that IELTS Test Score has a 2-year validity, and you need to retake the test if you decided to apply after 2 years.
    
    Please write a comment below if I am missing any and to update the new changes in the fees and others.
