Hello folks,
I have a bit sensitive and somewhat wierd question. I wanted to invite my mother in law for 3 months single entry visa and sent them my documents (T4, Employment letter, offer letter ) . But my inlaws changed the wording on offer letter and requested a 10 years supervisa without my consent. I want to know if it is possible to have it cancelled at this stage .

Thanks for expert input on this matter.

Hi,

Guess you have a bit of a difficult family situation here.

Hello folks,
I have a bit sensitive and somewhat wierd question. I wanted to invite my mother in law for 3 months single entry visa
Single entry or multiple entry: That's a decision the visa officer will make depending on the application and other factors. That said, all applications are automatically considered for multiple entry. Anyways.


and sent them my documents (T4, Employment letter, offer letter ) . But my inlaws changed the wording on offer letter
Would that not be a fraudulent or forged document if they modified your invitation letter?


and requested a 10 years supervisa without my consent. I want to know if it is possible to have it cancelled at this stage .
1. Did she specifically apply for a super visa + does your invitation letter specifically state it is a super visa application?

2. Did you include proof of medical insurance for minimum CAD 100,000?

3. Did you prove you meet LICO in your invitation letter?

4. Did you prove you are related to your MIL through your spouse?


Cheers

They specifically apply for supervisa and provided the insurance themselves without my knowledge. Reg LICO, yes I make way over the limit. Only proof was in the invitation letter stating that she is mother in law. Reg changing the offer letter , yes I believe that it would be fraudulant. but due to nature of the relationship, I cant really open up and talk to them but looking for legal possibilities and options. Main question is reg Immigration, will they entertain my request and cancel the visa or I simply dont have that privilige?

You can contact IRCC and withdraw your support if the application isn't processed yet. If you do this, be aware it may impact their ability to get a visa in the future.

If the application has been processed and approved and the visa issued - it's pretty much too late.

If you contact IRCC and specifically state that a letter of invitation that you provided had been fraudulently altered, providing all the details, it's quite possible that IRCC will cancel the visa, even though it has been issued. I'm a little confused about the fact that it's your "parents in law" as the super visa requires that the invitation comes from the child or grandchild, not the in-law. Was that invitation actually from your spouse? If so, you probably can't do much about it, as it would be your spouse making the financial commitment, not you.

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/parent-grandparent-super-visa/eligibility.html

The super visa lets you visit your children or grandchildren for up to two years at a time. If you want to stay for six months or less, apply for a visitor visa.

To be eligible for the super visa, you must:

  • be the parent or grandparent of a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident of Canada
  • have a signed letter from the child or grandchild who invites you to Canada that includes:
    • a promise of financial support for the duration of your visit
    • the list and number of people in the household of this person
    • a copy of this person’s Canadian citizenship or permanent resident document
  • have medical insurance from a CANADIAN insurance company that is:
    • valid for at least one year from the date of entry
    • at least $100,000 for minimum coverage
  • have proof that the medical insurance has been paid (quotes aren’t accepted)

Maybe the spouse is unemployed or does not meet LICO on her own and requires the OP to be the co-inviter. Just a guess

Maybe the OP should email his mom-in-law's local visa office to say he no longer intends to financially support her for a super visit but for a TRV instead. Maybe he should not take any legal action against his mom-in-law for modifying the invitation letter. It's his decision.

Also, the repercussions of informing IRCC about the fraudulent invitation letter could be pretty serious.... it could possibly result in a 5-years' ban for misrepresentation and, of course, cause misery in his marriage

The dynamic of the existing relationship must be somewhat askew already if the parents in law are prepared to lie and cheat based on the altered document. It shows contempt for the writer of the letter AND the spouse, regardless of who actually authored it.

It's not possible. You cannot cancel their visa.

But can I revoke my sponsorship otherwise even after we seperate I will be responsible for their expenses. My husband was also forcing me for their PR application so that they can work legally once they become PR. I refused to co-sign. Can this be considered as immigration fraud? Marriage for the sake of getting PR. Then leaving the partner. Can I revoke my husband's sponsorship, he is PR now?

You aren't responsible for their expenses under the super visa. There is nothing to revoke.

If your husband has submitted a PR sponsorship application with you as a co-signer, then you can certainly revoke your support of that application - and I would recommend that you do that asap.

In terms of immigration fraud, you would need hard evidence to prove that. Your husband wanting to sponsor his parents with you as a co-signer isn't proof of that. You would need something stronger that demonstrates he married you to get status in Canada. You cannot revoke your husband's PR status. You can report your husband to IRCC for marriage fraud. However whether they investigate the case or not and whether they decide to revoke his PR status is entirely up to IRCC and will depend on the evidence you provide. If you want to try, you would report him following these instructions:

If you know they are working illegally that is something else you can report.
