Thanks Leon.. Do you have any idea how much fund do i need for my tour? Wheter i stay in a hotel or my girlfriends apartment? Thank you so much!
Hello Nathan, I personally prefer, you don't mention that you are gonna stay with your gf apartment.If you do so, I think they might need invitation letter from her. While apply for tourist visa, you can show just the hotel booking. Across Canada, you can fine "hi-hostels" which is good one and cheaper, you can show the booking over the internet for the proposed stay (note that at hi-hostels the will not entertain a person to stay more than 10 nights, so plan accordingly). Also you make an itinerary and submit along with your application. Also make a self declaration that after the tour, you will come back to your home country and join back to your work place. Better get a letter from your work place that you are an employee of the company, working with them since XXXX (year) is going on vacation from period to period and will join back to duty on so and so date.
The amount of money will depend upon the duration of your stay ( basically the amount you mention should match with number of days you stay there) for example for 15 days $4,000/- (which is what I kept). Also you need to submit the last 6 months bank statement. Please do keep in mind that the period of your stay and nature of your job should have a matching concept, what I meant to say here is that, if one has a small job (less earnings) and his period stay is almost a month, then the embassy will or may get suspicious.
