Hello Everyone,

I live in Canada with my family and I am planning on applying for visit visa for my sister, who is currently living in Pakistan so I am wondering if I should apply online or do I need to apply through VFS service center?

I need some advice and guidance.

Thank you for your great response

Dear respected senior.
I have applied for Visit visa for my mother from Islamabad Pakistan but it is refused second time and they mention
Following points.
You not satisfied me that you would leave Canada at the end of your stay as a temporary resident
In reaching this decision I consider several Factors including.
1-You have not provided sufficient documentation to support your/yours host income and assets.
2-Your travel history
3- Purpose of visit not mention
I show my monthly income $4000 per month plus $15000 (CAD) Bank Balance. Also mention my mother will carry $10,000 with her.
Attached Mother Immovable and Moveable property around 15 Million PKR (1& half Core)
Check of $CAD 800 for my Rent proof where I am leaving and mother will stay here.
Now this month my job is going finished and I got layoff and I am planning to apply for EI.
What steps I need to take for reapply for my mother visit visa or I can appeal it.
Without job how I can apply for my mother visit visa.
By profession I am Cost management Accountant and my wife is doctor.
I am Canada in Citizen and living here in Vancouver since 2008.
I am married and have one child.
I pay Rs 20,000 to process application in Islamabad Pakistan.
Now my question can I appeal against their decision or there is no way to go for appeal.
How I can satisfy visa officer to above three mention points.

Respected Members,

Please help i am total confused, My Parents are applying Paper Base application for Visit Visa at VFS Global Center in Karachi Pakistan.

I paid the fees online and printed the receipt as mentioned on cic.gc.ca website with paper base and pay online option. But problem appears when i read on VFS global Fee services page

Please note from 01 June 2015 visa fees will be paid in cash at the Visa Application Centre and must be in Pakistani Rupees (PKR).

Does this suggest that fees has to paid in Cash only?
Does my online payment still valid?

I have sent the inquiry but wanted to take your valuable suggetsions

Hello
Just wondering, how significant is it to include proof of air travel (return ticket purchase) before applying for a TRV? Does this have an impact on the likelihood of getting a positive decision?

Not much, you can get an itinerary reserved temporarily online (without paying any thing) and just base it upon that.

TRV from Pakistan has a high refusal rate so no body purchases a ticket that cannot be cancelled or altered and CIC is well aware of this too. So it carries little meaning. All CIC needs from this aspect is a clear plan of visit - which an itinerary is good enough for.

Hi,

I trust this note finds you all in good health.

I just wanted to ask if it is possible to apply paper based and pay online for Pakistan applicants? On CIC website it says there are three ways to make payment. One of the methods is you can apply paper based and pay online... However, the VFS Global representative on phone said you can apply either Online and pay fee using credit card or apply paper based and pay cash. Just want to make sure if anyone of you applied paper based and made payment Online.

Thanks in advance!

Hi

I've question regarding spousal sponsorship.

Person A landed in Canada in June 2012 and left Canada in Feb 2013 to get married and was living in Pakistan with spouse. He has two kids (Born in 2013 and 2014). He came back to Canada in June 2015 and is now planning to apply for his family under family class immigration. Now I've two questions:

How much income he has to show, he is working full time on contract and earned approximately 21K since his arrival in 2015 June. (He didn't have job for two months).
What is role of this finance thing in spousal sponsorship (Remember he has two kids as well)? Could they reject his application as sponsor (first stage) that he didn't meet LCOI for 4 family members (Himself/Wife/2 kids) although his family is still backhome in Pakistan.
Thanks for your answers and help in advance.
