thanks for clarifying! appreciated.

Still confused. My brother and I each have our own homes - same city. If I make the invitation from both us, can she still stay at my house even though the financial support is by my brother? The bank statements will show his address, not mine.

So I can make the invitation letter by myself and my brother and my friend can still stay with me at my house?

I would like to invite a friend from Phillipines to visit Canada. She will be staying with me at my house but for financial support would it be ok to use the bank statements of my brother? Or must the financial support be specifically by the actual inviter?

I have a friend in the Philippines who I want to get a tourist visa to Canada for and she was told at the Embassy in Philippines that it would be better if I apply for the visa for her here in Canada. She would mail me copies of all documents required. I looked at the application online and...

No, we still haven't applied for vista, working on it. By gradual, I mean do not deposit a huge lump sum. Should be regular deposits over time. That's what we're planning to do.

I'm in a similar situation with my poor girlfriend from Philippines and I have found out that it is not enough to just show your bank statement, they will also consider what she has. You should get her to open up a bank account and gradually deposit money into it.

Do Affidavits carry any weight when applying for visa? She lives in a house that was family built and no registration or anything was required The parents are willing to make it hers because she is caring for them. Would an affidavit to show she owns a house help?

I see now, yes that makes sense that would be even harder with mutliple visa considering how poor and no travel experience. I spoke to her about this and she said she can get the mayor of her town to write a letter to explain her family ties more and to say that she will be returning. I...

Would it her chances be any better if she applied for a multiple entry visa instead of single? Wouldn't that show intentions of leaving and coming back as a visitor?

You've been very helpful! I feel much clearer now on the situation. I don't know what to do about improving her chances of getting a visa. She does have strong emotional ties to her family, they are poor, and she gives have of her small pay to help her parents. And would continue to help them...

Thanks for your help... but wouldn't i have to make things joint from the first day to be considered common-law after one year? Say we don't make anything joint till 3 months after living together, would the 3 months before count as common law living? If not that means would need 9 months...

I hope so much I can get some clear answers here. I searched all over and all seems so confusing. My girlfriend is from the Phillipines and living there, I am in Canada a Canadian citizen. We fell in love on the internet, never actually met but we know we want each other. I cannot go to...
