Hi Everyone,

I'm a PR in Canada, and I sponsored PR for my wife. Since the spousal PR process takes nearly a year, I applied for a visitor visa for her, which is almost complete. I'm now looking to book her flight to Canada.

I've heard from others in similar situations that immigration officers sometimes ask to see a return ticket to avoid concerns about dual intent. However, dual intent is allowed in spousal cases, according to an announcement made in May 2023.

For example, someone who traveled to Toronto in January was asked the same question. She showed her AOR letter for the spousal visa to prove her dual intent and that she planned to settle.

My question is: should I book a return ticket and cancel it later just to be safe, or is it unnecessary? Please share your journey if you went through similar process.

Thanks in advance,
Ravi

Applied for Visitor Visa for parents.

Submission Date: 07th May, 2024
Biometrics Collection Letter: 07th May, 2024

Final decision - June 1, 2024: Father's Application is approved.

Application status of my mother still shows "We are processing your application".
Current status: Your action is required.

I wonder why my mothers application is still not approved. Both of them applied on the same day and submitted their biometric on the same day.
Has anyone else encountered a similar situation or have insights into why this might occur?
Mothers application approved after 10 days.

Here is the time line:
Submitted online Application: 07 May 2024
Biometric Request Letter: 09 May 2024
Biometric Appointment Request made: 15 May 2024.
Biometric Collected: 17 May 2024 (Bangalore VFS).
Biometric status updated in profile:
Fathers Application - 17 May 2024
Mothers App- 11 June 2024

Final Decision - Approved (Passport Request)
Fathers application: 01 June 2024
Mothers Application: 12 June 2024

I applied for a TRV for my spouse on May 7th. Since then till now no updates not even ghost updates.... So much for faster processing between 14-30 days... Well I suppose the 30 days mark is coming up soon this week. We will see if the within 30 days is just talk...
Well... So much for higher approval rates for family reunification and faster processing within 30 days. Today is day 42. Application was refused. For the generic reason of not satisfied you will leave Canada, the purpose of the stay is not aligned with a temporary visit, no significant family outside Canada, and limited work opportunity. All this given we did provide an employment letter and showed that there are parents and siblings outside Canada...

A final decision has been made. Check the tracker and see if there is any info under the visa section. Did you receive the bvl?
