I have a few questions regarding applying for my mother-n-law's supervisa. I applied last year around November for a regular tourist visa but it got refused. Reasons provided were:
-not satisfied officer that she would leave at end of stay related to the following factors:
-immigration status in country of residence (lives in the United States under the Temporary Protected Status of which she is allowed to exit the USA but with a valid exit travel visa (for which she did apply { cost about 350.00} and got approved and it was sent with the application). People living in the US with TPS cannot leave the country and legally reenter without first applying for this travel authorization. So my mother-n-law applied for it which took 3 months for her to get approved and get her exit visa. This was uploaed to her application to show she can legally reenter the USA after her visit with us here.
-family ties in Canada and in country of residence (makes no sense, she is visiting her son here but she still has her husband and 3 other children and grandchildren back home she needs to go back to)
-length of proposed stay in Canada (put in application greater than 6 months, since she does not work she can travel for a bit)
-purpose of visit (family visit)
-employment prospects in country of residence (unemployed housewife, but husband works)
- personal assets and financial status ( no income on her part but her husband who was not planning on coming with her does work) we put we were financing her entire trip and stay so she can spend time with her son and our kids, her grandchildren.
So now my next step is to apply for a supervisa for her as I believe this is based on my husband's income and not her's, right?
Questions I have now regarding this application are:
1. In the online application itself there is really no where to click supervisa as the steps prompt to a regular visa pathway. I did notice though once you finish and they give you a list of requirements that on the visa appication (IMM 5257 Application for visitor visa) towards the middle there is a question that asks purpose of visit and there is drop down menu and I see super visa. But at the very top of that application there is no option under box 3 where it asks the type of visa you are requesting to choose supervisa. So I chose visitor visa, but I am scared that they will miss that this is a supervisa application not a regular visa. I am scared the officer might make a decision based on that and with the previous visa being refused, I am concerned. So is there a way to choose supervisa maybe I missed it?
2. One of the requirement the system automatically asks me to upload are her personal financial paperwork like bank accounts, pay stubs and such, but I thought a supervisa looks at the son's (our case) finances and lico requirements. I am scared to provide her information as that was a reason she was refused the first time too I guess because she is a housewife and does not make income. There is no mention to upload any of my husband's financial information which is needed for a supervisa. Please advice.
Thanks in advance
