My apologies, Actually I visited LA Disneyland so just inserted.

I am on employment Visa ( Resident Visa) and with the same employer since 2013 ( American consultant company).

As I stated, I will highlight that I have property in my home country on my name and that is immovable asset, I have car, and rented apartment which I furnished and will attach all receipts, I am living in Qatar since 2008 ( almost 12 years ) and during these two years I travelled to US, Schengen counties, UK visa ( multiple entries ), Ireland Visa, Singapore visa, etc. and never overstayed and return to Qatar as I have parament job with very good salary. etc. I am holding PK passport.

Any further suggestion ???
Why were you previously rejected. The travel history will only count if thetravel was done for tourism and hopefully with your family. Not much else I can suggest. Living in a 3rd country creates problems for visa approval. You should also include a detailed day to day itinerary about what you plan to do in Canada.

Yes, I did travel with my family for tourism purpose.

Previously was rejected as per below comments;
" I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as a temporary
resident, as stipulated in paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR, based on the purpose of your visit and Travel history".

I will include day to day activities as well in the cover letter. Is there is any specific format for cover letter?

Thanks.

No particular format. Your increase in travel should certainly help but the recent US refusal could be an issue.

Can anyone suggest if i can apply now and what are the docs i can submit to proof that i will return back to India?

Dear Pradhan -

Your case is strongly qualified, I think you had planned it so lightly and inappropriately - You have provided less information here till now. Also you have to keep in mind the CHC India two phases - 1st - Summer Holidays were stared from After May 20th, 2020 and 2ndly Good phase of embassy is after March 15th, 2020. Suggest you to apply after March 15th, 2020.

Hope that will work ! - Good Luck !

I didn't reapply, still I am preparing cover letter

What you give clarification for Travel History and Family ties in Canada and the country of residence...
My case is different, I send my family to home back to India, but I am still working in Dubai, and I applied from Dubai.
How can I give clarification for these below

• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as a temporary resident, as stipulated in paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR, based on your travel history.

• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as a temporary resident, as stipulated in paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR, based on your family ties in Canada and in your country of residence.

It was only for tourism purpose from Apr 24 - May 3.
A full itinerary was provided on day-wise basis along with the flight details. But i didn't provide any confirmed flight tickets.
And yes, i shared all the supporting docs like marriage certificate, employer certifcate to proof i am working, pay slips, employee ID..and ofcourses financial docs to proof i have enough funds to stays for that period.

What else should i had given to proof my strong ties any idea?
Purpose of visit doesn’t correlate with the aforementioned documents, you can carefully explain why you want to visit Canada, how the visit would help in your current life as a salaried worker or made the visa officer understand in bits everything about your travel plans & et. Then end the letter with when I complete my visit in Canada I will return to Ghana cause of reasons A,B,C & D
