I applied for my parents visit visa this January from Pakistan to visit my sister who is in Canada and expecting her 3rd child, who need parents support. I have attached property documents of my parents and business registration of my father and along with my sister doctor’s certificate and invitation letter.
Today I got refusal letter stating based on family ties in Canada and in your country of resisdance. I showed combined bank statement close to 20,000 CAD.
What should I do next. Should I reapply or not? Need your guidance.

Does your parents also holding the valid USA visa as well ? And what's the timeline of your parent's visa application ?
No prior travel history.
Applied on 2-1-22
Biometrics on 10-1-22
Refusal letter on 26-1-22
The best option is to order GCMS to understand the correct/detailed reasons for this refusal, correct those issues and apply again.. applying without checking GCMS notes may end up being refusal again if you don't address the issues ...
Thank you so much for your reply. Can you tell me the procedure to apply for GCMS notes?
Hi all, I am applying visitor visa for my in laws (me and my spouse are pr) using new portal and have 2 doubts if anyone can clarify -
Why do you need a visa? (required)
To visit my spouse, common-law partner, dependent child, parent, steps-parent, guardian or tutor who is a Canadian citizen, person registered under Canada's Indian Act or permanent resident of Canada
To visit my grandparent, grandchild, sibling, half-sibling, step-sibling or non-dependent child who is a Canadian citizen, person registered under Canada's Indian Act or permanent resident of Canada
To visit other family who are not listed above or friends for less than 6 months
To visit my children or grandchildren for more than 6 months (super visa)
- Can I apply using my portal as a representative for them. They are outside canada and I am in canada
- Confused between which option should I select now that under any option there is no proof of relationship or proof of family member status needed(initially it showed as required documents under option (that option now doesn't exist) of child who is immediate family member and who is pr) . Does it mean my spouse neither need to show any proof of being PR in Canada nor to prove relation with them or should i add those in optional documents? -

Thank you for your revert. Could you please guide how did you prove their strong ties to their home country? My sister is single but owns a business and a freelancer as well. I am inviting her for 45 days along with my parents and she has sufficient financial backup to look after herself during the trip. But still, many consultants deny applying for her visa at this covid time.
hello please i need an urgent answer to this question.
Please for the use of Representative form, do we need to just write our name on the Signature part, or we need to actually sign it with a pen?
