Thanks for your response.
For Super visa, can i submit the company letter with salary ? or can i getthe NOA from year to date ?

Secondly, what documents you suggest me to provide to sponsor her for her visit if i apply for her visit visa ?
I would say too early for you to sponsor as you landed just few months ago and as sponsor doesn't reflect your strong ties in Canada. If your mother doesn't have any asset / bank statements in her name and dependent on you and your brother then you need to show satisfactory reason and proof that she will return upon conclusion of trip and you will bear all the expenses. I would wait for another 4-6 months but it's your choice anyways.

My aunt got her US visa in May and then she applied for Canada visitor Visa online ( took about 13 days) to get the visa approved so having US visa is positive when applying for another but need to give satisfactory reason.

here are the documents that I would suggest but double check with other sources too.

-include the notarized english true translation along with photocopy of each originals in native language
- copy of your birth certificate or any other document as proof of relationship
- invitation Letter from you
- affidavit to suppprt her
- Stamped Affidavit from her promising to return as well as showing the interest and reason to visit (i.e to spend time with grandchild/ child)
- your brother bank statements and letter/affidavit that she is living with him as well as dependant on him
- your bank statements
--your PR card
- your employment letter
- your T4s if any or paystubs


I think its better to have the medical done through the designated facility even in visitor Visa at this age prior to applying so they will not reject on health/age grounds that she will be risk and burden on health Canada. I would also take the medical insurance and attach as proof that she will be covered in case of medical emergency during her stay.

Good luck!

Thanks for your message in detail. I understand from this that the case should be strong so they understand that she will be sponsored by me and will be back to home country.

Questions:
1. From where i need to attest the invitation letter which i will send her ? What authority in Canada ?
2. For how long i should apply for visa ? 5 to 6 months ? Is this better to mention that she has a US VISA and may visit other family members to US during this trip ? or no need to mention ?

1) Oath commissioner or any lawyer will notarize the invitation letter.

2) I think you have landed in Canada on Feb 2018 so about 6months for yourself :). sponsoring someone for 5-6 months required proof of sufficient funds that you are able to support her for that long. I would apply for 1month max trip and if visa approved she will be able to stay for 6months. Regarding the US visa you can mention in invite letter and she can do so in the letter from her side reflecting the purpose of trip

looks good enough. I would also take medical insurance to show them that she (as you mentioned she's 70years old) will be covered for any emergency medical needs during the trip and include the insurance policy paper with application. Regarding the notarization of your documents you don't need to other then invitation letter unless you know any lawyer who can do so for free :).good luck

Thank you Doctor. I applied a few days earlier than you
I kind of feel disappointed for the time they take on BG check for Pakistani applicants. It wasn't the case when these applications would go to Islamabad office for processing. It became worst in the recent years with the applications going to Abu Dhabi office which seems to be overloaded.
