Wow, you do present a strong case. It's hard to find a fault. If I am being picky, I'd ask you, did you submit:

a) Proof of company ownership?
b) Bank account statements (not just an affidavit)?
c) The scanned pages of US, UK and Schengen visas to support your history claim?

Ajit,


Suggest you get in touch in with some visa specialists/consultants. Don't pay them straight away, but just discuss what possibly went wrong in your application. Tourist visa they grant to almost anybody not sure what's happening in your case.

so how should i proceed now.
Ajit, to be honest with you, there is no strong or weak application that can turn the decision. The mind set of the officer wwhen he/she starts to read your application is important. If he starts your application with a particular mind set then it is very difficult that any of your submitted documents can change it. Coming to your case, while dual intent is allowed, but many of the TRV applications are rejected because of this reason (officer thinking that you will not return). You himself mention the reason categorically that you wanted to set up a business and then like to apply for entrepreneurship program and need a TRV to determine the suitability by visiting Canada. If I am your officer, I have two questions in my mind: i) The reason provided is not very strong and ii) to apply for business category, you must take risk. For example, if Mr A wants to leave his job in XYZ country and wanted to apply for permanent immigration in skilled worker category, will he ask for TRV so that he can visit Canada see the job opportunities and then coe back and apply for PR. Whether you have a business or very good/high level job, you have to decide before visiting there. I know there are many answers that you can give and argue. But, One thing that we all forget is: "Temporary resident visas is a privilege not a right", as mentioned by CIC, we cant argue this statement, as mentioned by CIC.
I would encourage you to re apply, as you may find new officer and new mind set, with a more strong case. Good luck

Hi Ajit,

I agree with hsp402 that your purpose of visit is not a compelling reason to visit Canada.

Each visa application is evaluated on what is called 'the balance of probabilities'.... although there are no guarantees/sureties that an applicant with a strong case will return home.

The visa officer assesses the probability of whether an applicant is likely to return to his/her home country.... based on documentation/evidence submitted, the personal situation, the purpose of visit, the financial situation, and also through phrases that giveaway the intentions.

For example: we want to visit there from which we will come to know how business will work there & know about the system before migrating there. = intention to remain long-term in Canada = possibility to overstay your visit.

A visa officer will not refuse a TRV because s/he has a bad day or due to bad weather. The onus is on the applicant to prove that s/he has compelling reasons to return home.


I think your TRV application lacked evidence to support your statements. IMO this has resulted in TRV refusals for yourself and your wife.


For example:
1. If your annual profit is INR 5-600,000 = CAD 10-12,000 (not deducting personal expenses)..... then this does not add up to your CAD 50,000 bank balance.... as I think no one would park CAD 50,000 for 4 years in a checking account (assuming you saved every cent for 4 years).... without investing any of it.

So was any of this bank balance transferred between your bank accounts or borrowed for the TRV applications?
Or was the CAD 50,000 balance in your company bank account?
If it is a company bank account then are you allowed to spend company finances on a personal trip? Do you draw a salary?
Did your wife show any finances of her own.... or would you be paying for her visit?


2. For your company/employment: You should have provided tax returns for your company + audit statements + proofs of ongoing orders + payments received from customers + Professional Tax paid for yourself and your employees to prove you have 10-12 employees (if applicable in New Delhi), etc etc


3. For your property: Property ownership documents + latest property tax receipts + maintenance bills (if it is a housing society), etc etc


.... similarly, you should have submitted other documents/evidence to prove your finances, your property valuation (not just a CA's assessment), your wife's self-employment, etc


Cheers

It's not like job. In job their no risk involved. U do not loose anything. In business high risk is involved.u have go with what u had submitted In Businesses plan. It's really hard to uproot urself and to root their , in new place. Until unless u go visit and search ,explore the work ideas. One cannot jump right way. BC/Manitoba give points for visit .

Bank balance, apart from business I have other source of income also. All the amount declare r in proper way and that include my working limit, saving a/c my wife and mine.

Cheer's ,
nice
Whether u go or not.
Thanks

Personally, I would agree with what Bryanna wrote earlier.

Your only income claim, which is the profit you take from the business, comes up to 12,000 CAD per year. It is difficult to accept a net worth of 2.4 million and 50,000 in the bank based on that income.
I think you will,need to provide more proof to back up those numbers, like Bryanna suggested. If you have other sources of income that you failed to mention in your application, then I would include them next time.

Also, you focused a lot on wanting to establish a business in Canada which I would think is not necessarily the best way to apply for your first TRV to Canada, since it clearly gives the impression that you intend to work in Canada in the future.

I think both of those things combined made a less favorable impression on the officer and could very well explain why you were rejected.

So I would make sure you include as much information as you can regarding your finances and maybe you could also include an invitation for an appointment with Idea Immigration, since that appears to be the main part of your visit, based on the cover letter.

The actual market value of properties,gold, fixed deposits,bonds. Say I bought a property 10 years back for 50000cad & it is now 500000cad . what proof u will provide for that. The bank statement I shown have no current deposits .
I think it's just the luck that works. But I will reapply with more effort on papers. Again need advice is it worth to go for Atip orgo for trv once again. Thanks

A person is applying for a TRV for the purpose of "evaluating the prospects of settling in Canada as businessman in future", is very difficult to get "Approved". Any neutral person who is working in Canada Law studies/department in immigration will tell you upfront, will have similar opinion. Still, as I mentioned there are many things that visa officer looks into consideration. My overall suggestion as make your application as complete and as strong as you can and rest leaves it on your luck.

Hi Ajit,

Use the 'Modify' button to delete/change any personal information


This is what I suggest:
1. Take a few steps back and re-look at your TRV application.... look for gaps in documentation/evidence.... do you seem like a short-term visitor or someone who wants to remain long-term in Canada?

2. Do re-read all the advice posted on this thread in response to your queries.... it will help you when you reapply.

3. Perhaps you want quick results.... without reviewing/understanding what documents/proofs/explanations should be submitted for a TRV to be approved..... do go through this forum for similar cases like yours.

4. IMO, your TRV application seems like a haphazard compilation of documents/evidence.... please hire a good immigration consultant to put your TRV application together.... I believe if you work hard, you can prepare a solid application yourself

5. If you need any advice then post your queries here.... we'll help


All the best :)
