Super Visa for parents and regular visitor visa for brother?

[indocan]

Hello,

Both my wife and I have PR status in Canada. I am working full time. My wife is not working and we are currently expecting a baby. We would like to bring my wife's family (from India) on a visitor's visa to stay with us temporarily here in Canada and that they can also be helpful to my wife and the new born.

Now, I understand that we might be able to bring her parents under the 'Super Visa' category but not her brother. She has a brother who is 24 years old/single/completed his studies India and currently looking for employment there. We are worried if there is a higher probability for his Visitor Visa to be denied given his current status (Immigration may think he wants to stay back in Canada when he is absolutely no plan of doing).

What is the recommended way to approach the above scenario? Should we apply for all theirs Visas at same time or it is better to apply for her Parent's 'Super Visa' first, get that sorted out and then worry about her brother's visa?

Hi,

As you have pointed out, the chances of your brother-in-law getting a TRV are quite slim.... unless he can convince the VO that his ties to India outweigh his ties to Canada..... what with most of his immediate family in Canada (including your in-laws)..... and also as your bil is unemployed presently.

I suggest that you apply for your in-laws' Super Visas first..... and then handle your brother-in-law's TRV. If in the interim your bil gets an offer of employment and/or starts working then this will strengthen his case.

Other points which can also help his application are: Property Ties/ Immediate Family in India/ Previous Travel History, etc


Hope this helps. All the best
