OK I'm not seeking justice here cos it's nowhere to be find nowadays. Maybe I just need to rant, or maybe I just wanna share experience.
I came to this forum before the application and read scary stuff, so I made sure all my documents were prepared well and complete. Nevertheless it got rejected, with reason being travel purpose unclear (something along that line) and insufficient funding (no assets other than cash I guess).
Background is that I've been working in Cayman for 2 years in a well paid job. I wanted to go to Canada for Xmas/NY time for a week. I'm 30 and single, holding Chinese passport. For financial support I submitted my job letter and bank statements (with decent balance in there). I also submitted flight and airbnb booking and a daily travel plan.
I was furious as I did everything by the book, and I've never had visa rejection before (semi well traveled). If I try to see it from their perspective, I'm single with a lot of cash, no real tie to Cayman, sure potentially I may stay for longer and not leave.
But I can't change my background, which is a reasonable background in my opinion. It's just a tourist visa for * sake, what else do they want me to show them. Shall I get married or get a house now to establish more ties? They can't just simply look out for that sort of things like come on!
I'm so discouraged and don't wanna apply again. Also I don't even know how to improve my documents as I've submitted everything there is. Screw Canada!
