Travel History Question!!!

[kamee79]

Hi guys,

I am applying for a TRV for my parents, they do not have travel history, my mom visited Saudi for umrah with me in 2011 but my father never visited any where in past 5 years. Should I arrange a short visit for them to Dubai for few weeks before I apply for a TRV? will this help?

My second question is my mom has a bank account and have almost CAD13000 in her account, will this be enough for both of them to support financially? my father doesn't have any bank account.

Also, can I act as their representative while I am here in Canada? we are not applying online, I will fill all their forms and will send it to them via courier and they will apply from their to local VAC.

No travel history is fine. Yes, you can be their representative. If dad & mom travels together, then the 13K in mom's account is enough.

Thanks mate. few more questions.

My mom has a joint bank account with me, will this be an issue? also, they do not have any source income and I am the one who are sending money to them for their needs, what do you suggest here?

Don't show the joint account. The 13K bank account is enough. It doesn't matter if they have no source income.
