Visiting Canada as a 20 year old on visitor visa- for two months

[CanCitizenInviting]

My spouse and I are Canadian Citizens and inviting my spouse's niece to visit us for two months. She will be accompanying my in laws to Canada. She is enrolled in a college in India and will be visiting us during her summer break. We will be providing documents to prove her enrollment back in India and to ensure that she will go back.

What are somethings I need to keep in mind while applying for her visitor visa? I want to make sure her visa will not be rejected.

1. She is not part of her grandparents application.
2. She needs to show cash in the bank. Two months is a long time for a visit without showing a lot of funds.
3. Always more difficult for a single person to get approved because no family ties. Can she show employment too. Make sure to include tuition paid.
4. Highlight her travel history.

So I should do an application seprately for her? the main intent of inviting her is so that she can accompany the grand parents who dont speak any english. and unfortunately this would be her first trip abroad and doenst have any travel history

She is a separate application and not a dependant of her grandparents. Accompanying grandparents who don’t speak English is not a reason. Don’t need to speak English to visit Canada.

Whats is the advantage of separating our her application? Isnt it more convincing they visit as a family rather than her applying alone?

She is not a dependant of her grandparents so separate. Her grandparents are not even considered immediate family members. If her parents were applying then she is part of their family application. Not sure why it is convincing.

Accompanying passengers that don’t speak English is not a reason . It’s an extremely weak reason for a visa to be requested

Order wheelchair service from the airline .
If they need a translator the airline has access to translation services

Please don’t encourage the use of wheelchairs if there are no mobility issues. If people claim they need a wheelchair when they don’t many are stuck waiting who actually need the wheelchairs and porters.

Hold old is your niece?

She is 20. She is currrently doing a college degree full time and will be visiting during her summer break. She doesnt work or have any money to her name. We will be buying her tickets and provide accomodation , food everything. Is it even worth applying her visa? or will it be a rejection for sure?

She should be applying with proof that her parents can fund her travels.
