i have applied for spouse trv and got rejected today. The reasons that were shown were 1. Travel history, 2. Family ties in home country and Canada, 3. Purpose of travel.

I am feeling very sad and depressed. Should i reapply? How should I nullify the reasons?
 
Please don’t post the same question multiple times.

How long a visit did you request? What sort of documents did you supply to show ties to her home country and reason for her to return? What did you state as the purpose of travel and does she have any travel history? Does she have any family ties other than you in Canada?

Hi Buletruck,
I have requested 30 days visit. Immovable assets were shown as her ties to country. Also she is a medical student and currently on leave. So we wanted to use this vacation. She said on her cover letter that she would go back to her medical studies after the vacation. The proofs were a recent exam admit card, admission docs and money receipts, student id card etc.

The purpose of travel was to solely visit me and do some sightseeing in Vancouver. She doesnt have any other ties in Canada

Thanks
 
If you plan to reapply, 30 days is too long for someone with no travel history. 2, maybe 3 weeks tops.....IMO 2 weeks would give you a better chance. Do you include her paid enrolment in school? Also, a letter from the school indicating the break, and they are expecting her back and/or permission to take the time off from classes. You should have an itinerary indicating in reasonable what she plans to do and where (hanging out in Vancouver to sightsee is too vague).
Being as you are in Canada, it can be really difficult to get TRV’s for spouses, as the risk of overstaying is quite possible. It’s not impossible, but it requires a really strong application to overcome. Things to remember that IRCC wants to see:
  1. You are going to leave at the end of your trip
  2. You have a reasonable reason to come to Canada
  3. You have sufficient fund to support yourself
  4. You are going to leave at the end of your trip (yes, I repeated that)
It’s up to the applicant to provide the convincing evidence they have to leave. Evidence that can easily be changed (return tickets, intention to go to school without having paid fees, long leaves from work (Canadians generally don’t get 4 or more weeks vacation/leave to travel, so it shows limited reason to return) are not solid support for an application. If you re-apply, review your supporting document pragmatically....would you consider it good proof of leaving. Put yourself in the visa officers place and try to look at it from their point of view (sceptically).
 
For 1. We have already provided all the docs from school. I dont know what else we can submit to prove that she will come back.

2. She wants to visit her husband. Isnt that a good enough reason?
