I am Canadian but hold legal residency in Costa Rica. I have not lived in Canada for 7 years. We have applied for a visiting visa for my Costa Rican husband twice now and both times he has been denied. We own a business in Costa Rica and are only wanting to visit my family. Any advice?
CRC husband denied visitor visa Canada

Pretty hard to provide any advice without knowing the reasons for refusal, what documents you submitted, how long of a visit you requested, etc.
We planned a three week visit to attend Canada's 150th birthday in our town and a friends wedding. We provided business registry documents, bank statements for business and his personal account, and all information plus extra for ties to family in Costa Rica. He was refused due to not having enough proof that he would not depart Canada after the proposed stay, and specifically checked off was " personal assets and financial status". He owns a business, a property, has a Canadian wife and Canadian citizen son who was born and resides in Costa Rica. Does anyone have any extra documentation ideas and advice for submitting?
Is that refusal reason for the first app or the second? When was the first app refused and when was the second app submitted?
Please provide a specific list of the documents submitted in each app.
The refusal reasons for the first one were as mentioned above and also travel history which was non-existent. The first time we applied was back in 2013 or so. This last time, we just applied online a few days ago, and it was refused for " personal assets and financial status".
List of documentation provided were:
1. Application form / Family Form
2. Business registry of our business / business corporation shares and owner registration / Tax statement from last fiscal year
3. Invitation letter from my parents
4. Bank statement from the previous four months - personal and business account
5. Marriage certificate & son's Canadian Citizenship card
6. Extra form that was optional to sign regarding any type of government involvement
7. Letter of explanation on reason for travel.
Thank you for your time!
