Hi folks,
Here's the situation:
me:
1.40 yrs old, born Canadian, lived in Toronto my entire life
2.Finance executive, professional designation, 10 years+ stable employment, v.good salary
3.Never married, no kids, no dependents, parents deceased
4.Never applied/sponsored anyone before
5.Heavily involved in the arts (ie I'm not just some numbers geek)
Applicant:
1.Russian lady, 25, born and lived in St.Petersburg (large city) her entire life
2.works 2 jobs, has letters from employers she's asked for a 2 week vacation
3.never married, no kids, but close ties to extended family in St.Pete's area.
I met her in Russia (while travelling on business), would like to sponsor her Temp Visitor visa application for a 2-week vacation to Canada.
I'm well aware of the many abuses in the system, and I'm entirely confident that she'll return to home at the end of her vacation. At the same time (obviously) I've got a "personal" interest in her, but she is not my fiancee and I entirely trust that she will return home. (and I am not a naive man
My question for you based upon your experiences/knowledge:
Is this:
A)a slam dunk denial?
B)a likely approval?
C)no way to know?
VOTE NOW!!!
thx
