hi everyone. just in case you know how to appy online with minor nephews?
my father is dying in Canada. his dying wish is to see his grandsons.
I may be eligible to apply online.
my problem is how do i apply for visas of my minor nephews online?
can i just add them to the family members who will be going with me?
Definition of "family member" is limited to spouse and children.
Thank you in advance.
Truly sorry to know about your dad. Hope his health improves.
Your sibling (the parent of the nephews) must apply online on their behalf.
Some points you may want to note:
1. Your sibling must include consent letters/authorization letters from both parents of your nephews that allow you to take them abroad + 24/7 contact information of their parents + their parents' passport copies
2. You'll need to prove your relationship with your nephews. You can do this by submitting the birth certificates of yourself and your sibling (parent of your minor nephews)
3. You can include the medical reports of your dad to prove that his condition is critical + to request for an expedited decision instead of the estimated TRV processing times for your country of residence
4. You must prove that you have the finances to pay for the visit of yourself + your nephews. If this is not possible then the parents of the nephews must provide their bank statements + Income Tax Returns + Letters of Financial Support
5. If your entire family (your spouse and children) are traveling with you, you must ensure that you prove the strong ties of each individual family member (employment/business + student ties + property/land ownership, etc) because the family ties to Canada will strongly outweigh those to your home country = Higher chances of TRV refusals
6. Do keep the visit to max. 3-4 weeks
