Hi Guys,
i know the letter of invitation has been in this forum over and over but I wrote my own letter based on the CIC suggestions of the must includes and tailored to my personal situation. However I really suck at writing, so if you could please read it and make any suggestions, that would be great.

RE: Letter of Invitation for PARENT ABC and PARENT DEF
I, ORTOM born on MM-DD-YY, daughter of MRS. ABC and MR. DEF currently holding a post graduate work permit in Canada, currently working as JOB TITLE with (EMPLOYER); And I HUSBAND OF ORTOM, citizen of Canada born MM-DD-YY, son-in-law of MRS.ABC and MR. DEF, currently working as a (JOB TITLE) for the (EMPLOYER), would both like to invite MRS ABC and MR. DEF to visit us in Canada at our home at OUR ADDRESS, so that they can be present for the birth of our baby girl (due on or around August 24th, please find attached proof of pregnancy for Ortom). We will be providing meals and lodging to at our home in Hamilton, ontario (owned by both of us) at no cost to my parents. My parents will be paying for the rest of their trip expenses(i.e roundtrip airfare; bank statements included.)
My parents, will be visiting from August 20th 2014 to Ocotber 8th 2014. Please be advised, that my parents will not overstay their visit as they both have important obligations with their respective businesses and the sole purpose of their visit is to visit myself and my husband for the birth of our baby girl.
It is very important to us to share this joyful time with my parents MRS. ABC (born mm-dd-yy) and MR. DEF(born mm-de-yy). This is the my first child and the first grandchild for my parents and it is equally important to myself and my parents to be present for this very significant event and to be able to meet our baby girl when she arrives. I am very close to my parents and I definitely need them to be present during my delivery so that they can be an additional emotional support for me, besides my husband.
During our last visit to Albania in June 2013, my parents took both of us to a lot of tourist spots, so that they could show my husband (NAME) more of Albania, since it was the first time that HUSBANDS NAME visited Albania. Both (Name of my husband) and myself hope that we will be able to show some of the beauties of Ontario to my parents, based on the progress of my pregnancy and the health of the baby and myself after delivery. We would like to take my parents at a few tourist spots around Hamilton, such as Niagara Falls in ontario, the CN tower and the Exhibition Place in Toronto. Also my parents will be visiting my mother's step sister SDF in City, Ontario (they will not stay overnight) , sometime during their stay, depending on the progress of my pregnancy and the health of myself and the baby.
Please be advised, that my parents Temporary Resident Visa Application in May 2013 was refused due to Insufficient financial documentation and assets for both the host and my parents.
This time around my parents have included more detailed information in regards to their employment status, income and assets and I have included employment letter for myself and my husband . I would like to assure you that my parents will be returning to Albania at the end of their stay.
My mother has been self employed in the retail industry for nearly 18 years,and has been and continuous to be very successful and passionate about her work. She travels once a month to Turkey to order merchandise for her retail store and my fathers retail store (passport stamps and entry and exit history from the Rinas International Airport, Tirana included). It is therefore imperative, that my mother return to Albania at the end of her stay in Canada, as her knowledge and expertise, is vital to her business. During her absence her two sales associates will be keeping the business in operation.
My father is also self -employed in the retail industry since May 01 2014, however he has been assisting my mother with her own business since my mother first opened her business. Please be advised that my father has recently stopped working as a veterinarian, as it required substantial travelling, since my fathers expertise is larger farm animals rather than pets, and he had to constantly travel to our hometown ABC given that his customer base was primarily from our hometown (6 hours away from Tirana). It is very important that my father returns to take care of his business as well, since it was recently opened and it requires work to build a customer base. During my fathers absence, his sales associate will be keeping his store open. Please find attached a lease agreement for the retail store where my father has his retail store.
Furthermore, my parents have enclosed property tittles owned by them, but under my fathers name. Their property titles are: two retail space basement stores, adjacent to one another in Tirana, Albania and, Land owned in Tirana, Albania ( proof included for both). Please note that my parents do not own their home, however they have been living there since 2006, and the home is a family home, owned by my mother's side of the family ( no proof included.) My parents reside at XYZZZZ and they can be contacted at xxxxx or xxxx.
Also, my parents have included proof that they hold three joint bank accounts, two in American Dollars and one in Albanial Lek. Please be advised, that debit or credit cards are not widely used in Albania, therefore the only transactions in their account are occasional deposits and withdrawals, which does not reflect all of their income, since cash is widely used in Albania.
Also please note that my mother's and father's extended families live in Albania, along with my brother, who currently resides with my parents.
The contact information for myself is xxxx and for my husband xxxx
Sincerely Yours,
myself (signed)
my husband (signed)
