One or more documents you've submitted could be the cause of your application getting cancelled. Possible unrecognized gym letter or inaccurate information at the time of submission of application to the embassy

I was denied the first time applying and they said nothing. The second time they sent me an email telling me what was wrong and allowed me to correct it.

No one can tell you the reason it was cancelled. You need to contact them to find out. Period.

i doubt he would/can do that ๐Ÿ˜‚. But on a serious note, noone here can tell you why or how.. you would have to call the embassy and make a appointment or ask over the phone. Goodluck ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

I started to ask you if it was Hanoi. I have read in this group so many say they experienced the same in Hanoi and not to apply there. I am no expert at all. Might I suggest you search this group using โ€œHanoiโ€ as the search term and see what others have done. Itโ€™s so inexpensive, I would use an agent. I am hoping things work out for you. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ

Cancelled usually means there was an error in the passport information. An incorrect passport number, name or place of issuance.
