Visit Visa Application (Using the new IRCC Portal)

[expressTarun]

Guys, I am going to submit my spousal file for TRV. I am getting below list of space holders to upload the documents. Can someone confirm if this okay? also, I am not sure where do I add Purpose of Travel letter and Invitation letter in these fields. Can someone suggest:

1. Proof of relationship
2. Fund Proof
3. Proof of family member status
4. Passport

Optional documents:

1. Employer Letter
2. Consent form
3. Additional Docs.

Thank you for responding, I am a Permanent resident, My wife could not come over due to some of her projects back home. She is working and running a business, I applied for her and wanted her to come over during her vacation. I showed my account balance and her account, together make around $ 20 thousand and she will only stay for 3 weeks. Not sure what else would you like to know

I think you are better off applying for the PR. Finish applying for it and then try visitor's again. Have you shown any property in your wife's name?

 

[Shah_f298]

Thank you very much sir , I hope too

Hi, Did you reapply ?

No i have not shown any property documents, Should that help? and if i want to write an Invitation letter, how should that be? i have not attached any letter for my side

Invitation letter is the same as sponsor letter. It is very important. And so is the property document (as they consider it to be proof that your spouse has an asset to go back to). I think the format for the letter should be available on the ircc site somewhere or you can check youtube.

• 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.
A: Did she show her own funds in her account or was it just the combined funds that you showed?
• 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 current employment situation.
Ans: If she is working, did you provide her employment letter with the date of rejoining after her vacation?
And did you provide any documents to prove that she is running a business?
• 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.
Ans : Does she have any previous travel history to countries like US, UK, Australia? This is what they want to see.

Note that it's difficult to get spouse visitor visas approved.
Apply for GCMS notes to know the detailed reasons before applying again. If you are able to address those points, you might be approved.

Hi, Thank you for responding on it, Yes she showed an amount of $8000 in her account, and attached an employment letter, but unfortunately there was no letter from my side , like an invitation letter. She has no travel history. So now applying the 2nd time with an invitation letter, a letter that says that she needs to rejoin her job/business on a due date, attaching a property documents, you think i should add any thing else
