What does it mean when a visa application is marked as 'cancelled'?

The phrase "cancel visa application" generally indicates that the visa application was not approved, often due to errors or omissions in the application form. Common reasons include providing incorrect personal details or failing to submit necessary documentation. Unlike a rejection, which signifies ineligibility, a cancellation suggests that you can apply again, possibly with a different embassy. Users shared their experiences, clarifying that if your application is canceled, you may lose the application fee.
