Parent's Canadian Visa Denied

Dear all

Thanks all for the advice you have been providing. Unfortunately my parents visa got denied.

Here's the picture:
Mum and dad 54 years of age - live in Pakistan. Dad has business and properties
One of my sisters is in Pakistan, lives with mum dad, not applying for visa as she works
I live in Canada on a work permit and my other sister lives here on student visa.

We requested a visa for 14 days for mum and dad for August when both me and sister can get time off work and uni and all. Can't really think of a reason why they got denied.

Visa rejection reason:
Family Ties and Canada and home country (My other sister lives in Pakistan with mum dad, both me and my sister in Canada have to go back to work and uni)
Purpose of visit (Holiday - see me and my sister - they have been to London, UK 3 times only for a couple weeks at a time - how can the purpose of the visit not be satisfactory)

If anyone could advise:
1. How to request more info on exactly what documents/info made them think of it.
2. How we can make our case stronger and re apply.
3. If I can somehow paint a better picture of my parents' family ties in Pakistan and the purpose of visit, should I re apply straight away?

Any advice most appreciated.

Thanks all

Even if she's getting married in December? I have booked my own flights

The wedding would show more ties to Pakistan and if there have been paid bookings, your flights booked, etc. Your sister is a working adult so not a tie to Pakistan. If she was a minor that would be different.
