Yes we have decided to do that this time. My father's bank statement is from early March and all the other translated and notarized documents are dated mid-March. Can we use the the same documents when reapplying (it'll probably be 1.5 weeks from now)? Or are those documents now considered...

No problem at all. Thank you so much for all your help so far. You really are a Godsend.

@Bryanna I am thinking of changing the answers for 3 questions in the main application form (imm 5257) when helping my parents apply the second time: Length of visit, funds available for the visit, and native language/mother tongue. I am thinking of changing the length of their visit from 24...

Congratulations. How did you apply for both the first time and the second time? Paper or online?

They literally submitted documents for every requirement in both the Document Checklist (IMM 5484) and the regional checklist. So it definitely cannot be lack of documents. I think it may be that it wasn't presented/ organized well (or at least the visa officer thought so), especially since...

Do keep in mind that the three of them applied together in one application package. But separately, these are the documents for each applicant. Dad (principal applicant): 1. Cover Letter 2.Copy of passport front page 3. Purpose of Travel · My wedding invitation card and envelope · Wedding venue...

Thanks. Yah I think when we do reapply, we will go the online route.

Yes, they did provide a cover letter. The part of the cover letter that mentions their time in Canada is this: "As parents and sister of the bride, we will also be involved in the traditional wedding ritual, the actual wedding ceremony, and the wedding volunteers appreciation event. Beside the...

@k.h.p. Just did it. Thanks. Do you guys think submitting an online application instead of a paper application would help in any way?

How should we go about requesting GCMS notes? Theirs was a paper application and my dad got text messages on his phone regarding the status of their application, up until the rejection email.

Also, my dad is suggesting we consult an immigration lawyer. Do you guys think that is a wise choice.

Thanks for the suggestion, although I'm afraid that if we reapply only after getting the GCMS notes, then the visa may not be given in time for my wedding.

My mom, dad, and my younger sister (29) applied for TRV to attend my wedding in late June. They applied together with my dad as the principal applicant (paper application). They got rejection emails exactly one week after they submitted their applications. This is so upsetting. I can't even...

Thanks Bryanna. Will do so. :)

@Bryanna

Thanks for your advice Bryanna. I will inform my dad and ask him to make the necessary changes/ additions. No, they don't have joint bank accounts. So do you think she should write down zero as her 'Funds for my visit'?

Thanks for the response. Yes they will be submitting their paper application in person at the VAC. Sorry, the "mailing in" was an error on my part. After they get their biometrics done, will they get some sort of document (proof that biometrics was done) that they would need to submit with their...

Does anyone know? @Bryanna @andy.keeling

I have two questions. Question 1 Does the biometric need to be done before mailing the application package (ours is a paper application) OR can it be done after the application has been submitted. I’m asking cuz my parents are ready to submit their application package, however the earliest...

My parents are submitting a paper application for Canadian TRV. When submitting a paper application, you have to include your passport with the other documents. Since the CIC folks going through their applications will have the my parents' original passports, do I still need to scan and attach a...
