Hi all,
I am trying to apply for a TRV for my mother and sister from India for around 1 month stay with me. I already have a Canadian PR and am currently in Toronto.
Situation: My mother is a housewife and gets government pension every month apart from a fixed monthly rent from her property.
What will be the best way to convince the visa officer that she will return to India after 1 month and will not overstay her visa?
I am trying to draft an invitation letter for her and this is what I have so far:
=========================================================================
Toronto, September 5, 2019
To,
Immigration and Citizenship Canada
Subject: Invitation Letter for Mrs. xxxxx
Dear Sir/Madam,
My name is xxxxx, I was born on xxxxx and I am from Toronto, Canada. I am a Canadian permanent resident and I live in xxxxxxxxx. I work as a xxxxxx for xxxxxxx in Toronto, earning CAD$xxxxxxx per year.
Through this letter, I am inviting my mother xxxxxx, born on xxxxxx and who currently lives in xxxxxxx, India to Canada for a short stay. She will be staying in with me from December 1st until December 26th, 2019. The main reason for this visit is to celebrate my birthday on xxxx in addition to touring around Toronto for 2-3 weeks at different locations like Blue mountains, thousand islands, and Niagara falls etc.
After my father’s demise, my mother, xxxxxxxxx receives pension every month from the State government in addition to the rent she earns from her apartment in xxxxxxx amounting to CAD $xxxx. With approx. CAD $xxxx in her bank savings she can easily manage her day to day expenses while in Canada. She also needs to report back to the State government office in order to continue receiving the pension for next year hence there is zero possibility of overstaying her visa.
