Hello,

I am applying for Visitor visa for my Mother-in-law using the IRCC's new portal (not GCKey). So after filling up all the information I got to the supporting documents page but there was no Letter of invitation tab or place where I can upload letter of invitation does anyone know if this has changed recently?
Or am I doing something wrong?

I am also linking the screenshot below for reference-

Because as per some videos that I saw had this Letter of Invitation tab in the supporting documents section.

Can someone please advise?

Thanks in advance

If you have selected purpose as tourism there will be no invitation letter option. Try other purpose such as family visit etc

  2. To provide care for a loved one who needs medical support.

  10. To visit my spouse, common law partner, dependent child, parent, step-parent, guardian or tutor who is in Canada temporarily, such as an international student or temporary worker
  11. To visit my grandparent, grandchild, sibling, half-sibling, step-sibling or non-dependent child who is a Canadian citizen, person registered under Canada's Indian Act or permanent resident of Canada

chose this :
12. To visit other family who are not listed above or friends for less than 6 months

and you'll have the invitation letter
