Hi,

I'm applying for visitor visa for my parents but we haven't planned yet when will they come. I'm planning to get married in Canada later this year if their visa gets approved. What can I show as proof of travel, if being a mandatory field?

You apply when you know your plans, not before.

Trying to do so would increase the chances of refusal considerably.

Thanks for your response.
But what if the visa is not approved, I'll lose money on the tickets?
You have to look into this with the airline of your choice. Some have flexible tickets, some let you cancel as long as it is with certain amount of time in advance, etc.

I found this one:
https://visareservation.com/
But I'll have to pay atleast 100 USD for a package for 2 people and then can reserve a flight for free.

Has anyone tried this before?

When i submitted my application few months ago i didnt make any reservation. I just went online and copied an itinerary from an airline. Like what time the flight is what date what airline etc and it worked out. Do not buy tickets not until you get a visa.

No need for this.

You can either ask a travel agent who has the Amadeus Air Reservation system to hold provisional flight itineraries for your parents. This is 'booked' for free for 24 hours.

Or, do check www.yatra.com. They have a 'Hold for free' booking where you can hold tickets for some days without making any payment.

In either case, you can print off the tickets/provisional bookings for the TRV applications + mention you will buy confirmed tickets when the TRVs are issued
