Hello Everyone.

I just want to ask, what other documents you can show purpose of visit (tourism)

TRV was refused due to:
Purpose of Visit
Other Reason: Insufficient Evidence of Valid I-20 and Academic Standing

For the other reason, that was mistake on our part as we forget to submit that but we are able to.

Now for the purpose of visit, what can we submit other that flight and hotel bookings as we are travelling for tourism purposes only.

Also, I am not sure if this is a factor but in the online eligibility checklist, we mentioned that we have a family member that is a CAN Citizen (Brother/Uncle) but we did not provide any documents related to him because he is not living in Canada (he's an investor).

Details:
Nationality: Jordan
Residence: USA (Student) and Qatar Resident
VO: Abu Dhabi

Thank you in advance.

Did you submit a daily agenda if you say your purpose of visit was tourism?
No, I did not.

I only submit the flight bookings and hotel bookings showing that I will be in Montreal from this date to this date (1 week) and in Toronto from this date to this date (10 days).

Then that's one reason why they weren't convinced of your purpose of visit. Prepare a daily agenda of your trip.

Thank you. I will do that.
What else do you suggest I should add?

For flights and hotel, does it have to be a ticketed bookings?or the bookings are fine? What i submit was just booking and I was planning to purchase all once I have a confirmation of visa approval.

Also, is an invitation letter really a must or an added points (if you put it that way :) )? I have a friend in Canada but I will not be visiting her because her residence is far that's why I did not ask for an invitation from her. Do you think I should ask her now?
Thanks

Bookings are fine. You are not advised to purchase flights or hotels until the visa is approved.

Invitation letters are optional. If you won't be visiting that friend, you don't have to.

I have nothing else to add, honestly. I've seen some cases where they just added the daily agenda when they reapplied after getting refused and they got approved.

I applied for a visitor visa online. I will be heading to the US on a Student visa, and from there I intend to travel to Toronto for a week and return to US as my classes will start. In my visa application, I have included my US visa scan, my flight tickets to US, my university I-20 and acceptance letter which also states the date classes commence. I will be staying in Toronto with a friend who is studying there and I got an invitation letter from him along with his university related documents, study permit and passport scan. His address and contact details are mentioned in the invite letter and in my cover letter. Since I did not provide any daily agenda as I am going to visit my friend, do you think it could be a problem? Will the other documents I provided suffice?

Since you had already applied, you can only wait and see if it will be approved.
