Unaseem : Please help regarding my TRV application.
My Husband is studying in canada as an international student, while he was visiting Pakistan, we had our nikah done on 14th oct and applied for the TRV on Nov 21st 2011. Later we got married (on Nov 25th). We applied with full documentation from CHC islamabad and i received a letter on 20th Jan 2012 stating that my application was denied due to three reasons:
"you have not satisfied me that you would leave canada at the end of your stay as a temp.resident. in reaching this decision i considered several factors including":
marked reason # 1 : length of stay in canada.
2: insufficient funds including income or assets to carry out stated purpose in canada or to maintain yourself while in canada and to effect your departure.
3: income required for 2 persons (low income cutoff)for 2011 is $27674
My husband also left on jan 20th and i got to hear this bad news very same day.
my husbands study permit is valid till jan 2013 and my proposed length of stay was 1 year(as long as his study permit). we showed almost $23000 CAD. i showed $12000CAD in my personal bank and my husband showed the same amount with his monthly income letter. I am also employed in pakistan so i have a strong tie in my home country. but they only marked 3 reason mentioned above.
Please advise as to what should be our next step? should i reapply by showing more funds? or reduce the length of stay?
all replies are appreciated.
Regards,
