Job Offer........
Pre-Assessed..
So my mother-in-law is living alone and has no significant property. She is currently not working for health reasons. It is likely to get a visitor Visa to Canada. She doesn't intend to stay for more than 3-4 months but how do I prove the intent? She has no other children too. Just siblings and their families. Will her medical reasons be accepted, if we get a letter from her doctor stating that she needs diabetes and thyroid checkups every quarter? We can cover her PoF @canuck78
Doesn't look good unless she will be applying for a super visa.

And if she has pre-existing health issues, supervisa or most travel health insurance will not cover expenses related to those conditions.
So likely need to show more funds for medical needs.

That's a tricky situation, but definitely doable! Proving intent to return is key. Since she has family ties outside of Canada, that's a good start. The doctor's letter about her medical needs is also helpful, as it shows she has reasons to return for ongoing care. Since you're covering her Proof of Funds, make sure the letter clearly states that and includes your financial information. Good luck with the application! horror games

Mother in law doesn't have any family ties outside. Only spouse/common law partner and underage children counts for family ties. Since this is a regular visitor visa application, only the applicant's fund is considered.

OP can try to apply for supervisa (then OP's income would count) but the supervisa insurance can be expensive.

I wonder if the newbie's post with random/incorrect information is an i got this post.

Would disagree that returning home after a few months to address medical needs is a good proof of ties. Would likely create concerns that parent may place burden on Canadian healthcare system during their visit or if they want to extend their visit.
