Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this post.
**Background:**
- Both my husband and I have been Canadian citizens since 2024.
- We own a house and wish to invite my brother and his family to visit us for a vacation.
- My brother runs a family business in India.
- His Australian study visa was rejected in 2015 and he then went to London
- He completed his master’s degree at a university in London in 2017 and returned to India after finishing his course.
- His Canadian tourist visa was rejected in 2017 when his friends and I invited him to visit us, and his Canadian tourist visa was rejected in 2019 when I invited my family for my convocation. However, our parents’ visas were approved at that time.
- He frequently travels internationally and has visited England a few times, both as a single traveler and after getting married.
- Despite being a genuine traveler, his Canadian visa has been rejected twice. Unfortunately, we no longer have the application numbers from the earlier rejections.
**Current Situation:**
I am now planning to apply for visitor visas for him and his family to join us next summer. However, I am concerned that their visas might be rejected again.
**Steps I’m Considering:**
1. Writing a detailed letter to the immigration officer explaining the history of his visa applications.
2. Providing proof of their boarding and lodging with us during their stay.
3. Submitting financial statements for both our household and his family.
4. Including business and property documents to demonstrate his strong ties to India.
5. Writing a signed undertaking stating that he and his family will return to India after their visit.
I would greatly appreciate any advice from the members of this group on additional steps we could take or any alternative approaches that may improve their chances of obtaining a visa.
