Hello,

I have invited my dad to visit Canada from Dhaka with the supervisa. It took the singapore visa office (dhaka visa office is now closed) ~ 30 days to get back to him notifying him of an interview. He is now waiting for an interview date.

Here is a little bit of context about my dad. He is 65 years old and is separated from my mother and has 4 adult kids (including me). He was separated from my mother before we came to Canada. We came to Canada with my mother 17 yrs ago while we were kids. He stayed in Dhaka as he was not interested in coming to Canada. Now we live in Canada with our mother as Canadian citizens. My father as I mentioned is not a Canadian citizen. However, growing up, I have maintained a relationship with my father. Since we came to Canada, he visited us (his sons) 2 times in Canada. Now that I am an adult (meeting LICO), I would like for him to visit me. He is employed in Dhaka and has a letter from his employer. He also has property there that shows his ties to Dhaka. He is not interested in immigrating to Canada. He just wants to be able to visit us whenever he wants without having to queue up for visa each time hence the supervisa approach.

We have submitted a complete supervisa application according to the checklist. I am not sure why he is being called for an interview. What kind of questions will they ask him?? I don't want him to get refused for some silly reasons? Any advise?

Thanks

It does say on the government website "You may need to go for an interview with a visa officer." They might just want o ask him a couple of questions. Just make sure that he gives them valid reasons for coming back after his visits.
