Thank you Sara joon, I submitted my application on April 19 and did the biometric test in Ankara on April 27. The approximate processing time for visitor visa for Iranian applicants is 40 days, but we had heard from many friends that they got their visa in 2 weeks. Its completely a different application and the whole process of preparing the documents and forms took me 1 month.
We had a few supporting documents to make the application stronger. I asked my work place to give me a letter stating my position and employment conditions in the company and I have to be in Iran after 4 months to follow up on the office projects. Any immovable property in Iran can also prove that your husband will be back, like a house. If he has a medical appointment in Iran, that is helpful too. He can ask his doctor to write a letter that shows he will be back for regular visits. You can have an official translation of this after Nezam Pezeshki verifies the doctor signature. I also bought a round-trip ticket to prove that I will be back. Almost everybody said a reservation also works, but since I didn't want to take the risk I bought it.
But what is important for you to know is that you need to tailor the supporting documents to your own situation. Think of anything that proves you and your husband need this temporary visit in Canada. Think of anything that will prove he will be back. Write in your own words and explain your reasons to back up your case. It's your true right to complain about the long process of PR application, but it is not an effective argument in the visitor visa. Convince them that you can't afford to take a leave from your work and come to Iran, so it will be great if your husband could come for a visit. They just want to make sure that your husband won't stay in Canada beyond the visa date. Once I get my passport, I will let you know how long I am permitted to stay there.
Wish all of you the best.
we can't think like that, we can't be the 1%We are going to have a nice email soon
