need help please applying TRV from Islamabad Pakistan

[Kpk.pesh]

Hello friends, I have all supporting documents which is mondatory or compulsory enough for applying TRV at Islamabad Pakistan. But only missing bank account statement which I don't have because here in KPK Pakistan business , sell and buy anything is on hand to hand cash system. I have enough money to go and come , I will spend maximum of 20 days.

I search at the forums that bank statement is compulsory
I have traveled several times to USA , Europe , other countries which require bank statements but believe none of visa officer asked yet from me.

So my question is how could I prove or convince visa officer that I can afford my trip without bank account statements ?

Hi,

The visa officer needs to be convinced that you can afford your visit without borrowing. By proving your financial situation, you also prove that you will not work illegally when you visit.


1. What financial documents did you submit for your US/Schengen visas?

2. Is your business registered?

3. Do you pay taxes on your business and personal incomes?


Cheers

Hi,

1. I just submit Invoices and contracts with supplier
2. yes registered
3. yes I pay tax, ( again the same system cash to their Acc)

I have to add also, that in this city or most parts in country maximum of businessmen transfer money to over seas company by means of T/T telex transfer through private money exchange in local language called SARAF.

1. It would be way easier to simply open business and personal bank accounts + then wait for 4-6 months before you submit the bank statements. That convince the visa officer that you can afford your visit.

2. Do you have receipts for T/T payments which you have received recently from your customers?

3. Do you have financial investments (and you pay taxes on these)?

Thanks Bryanna,

1. I will do, but 4-6 months wait is very long time
2. I have the receipt of T/Ts which we send money to our customers but the transfer is done by different companies name
3. Yes I have record of tax which I paid , the tax authorities can print as which is similar like bank statements.

It brings us back to square one: You must submit bank statements (business) for all the reasons which I had cited in the other thread.

I have the receipt of T/Ts which we send money to our customers but the transfer is done by different companies name

This will complicate your explanation especially if these companies are not owned by you.... or cross-payments.

Yes I have record of tax which I paid , the tax authorities can print as which is similar like bank statements.

Taxes will prove the income earned in the past + prove it is a legit business. You'll still need to back your income claims with current bank statements

No, your parents cannot sponsor you. You must qualify and immigrate through one of the economic streams.

You can start here:

You can also apply to visit Canada as a visitor. This will help:

Your normal business transactions.

To visit Canada, however, you must be able to prove that you can afford your trip. You can prepare a day-by-day itinerary with expense estimates and prove you can pay for this itinerary + airfare, etc

Bryanna,

I will open account on my own name private account, I have license of as Private businessman , not Ltd

I calculated for one week,,, accommodation+airfare ( return tickets) +food+transport = US$ 3,000.00

They cannot *sponsor* for a TRV. They can only invite you to visit
