proving intent to return to home country

[wilder1047]

Wilder:

I AM in that situation: already approved as a sponsor, living with my wife in China. She applied for a temp visa so we could visit my family in Canada while we waited, and she was denied because of too few ties to China showing that she would return before the expiry date of her visa.

So, what embassy told you you could get a TRV? Not the Beijing embassy, surely?

The Canadian Embassy in Bangkok. It can't honestly be something that is unique to one embassy though... can it?
