TRV to attend sons Master's convocation.

[aniruddhabhatt]

Sounds good!

So, following the insights:

1. I'd wait to receive my work permit (March 10 - ish) and apply for visitor visa of parent. I have also advised them to save more money in salary accounts till then.

2. I'd arrange all possible investments and certificates till then to build a strong case.

I'm also applying for express entry meanwhile. Hope it won't be a problem! I just received my ITA

Really appreciate the insights @Bryanna ..Feel free to post if any related thought crosses your mind any moment !!

No problems. Congrats

Hi @Bryanna, (and other members if you read this!)
Hope you're doing fabulously well!

Time to apply for parent's visitor visa for my convocation (June 11)
trying to do all that was suggested. Please advise if I should add/remove things.

The finances, now look like this (CAD):
Dad: 12K (Salary account) + 4K (LIC) = 16K
Mom: 6K (Savings account) + 10K (FD) + 2K (Salary account) = 18K

In addition, i'd submit the

• property valuation papers from India, to demonstrate economic ties
• grandparent's address proof to demonstrate social ties
• Evidence of parents' government employment (dad's leave approval + pay slips and tax returns for both)
• 4 months of bank statements for both and balance certificate.
• a copy of my PGWP (recently approved, needed?)
• day-by-day visit itinerary with expense estimates, for 3 weeks.
  
• As my documents have my mom's new surname, and her's have her maiden surname: her marriage certificate + my birth certificate + my passport copy (Should I explicitly talk about this in LOE?).
  
• (Needed?) My offer letter and salary?

What do you think? Please let me know if anything I should know or should look into.

Best Regards,
Anir

Hello Bryanna (and people!)

Hope y'all are doing awesome. Not sure if I have been happier than today in a past few months; my parent's TRV for visit got approved today for my convocation as the primary reason

I thought I should share my experience with the process:

Documents Submitted
* I am not sure if that worked, but I paid extra attention to formatting of the documents (with table of contents, proper headings for attached documents, straightforward language, polite tone, including my immediate family tree, consistency and got it proof read by friends)

1. Proof of relationship: Passport copies, marriage certificate and my birth certificate.

2. Means of Financial Support (for both dad and mom):

• Employment letters
• 3 month Salary Slips
• 4 month bank statements
• 2 year tax returns
  
  Demonstrated ~15K CAD readily available for Dad, and ~18K readily available for Mom as follows:
• Savings account certificate
• Salary account certificate
• LIC Investment
  
  * In Form IMM 5257, I wrote ~10K as 'available funds for my stay' in each form.
  ** There were instances of (legit) last minute deposits in both my parent's accounts, and I had explained one of them as maturity of an older family-owned Fixed Deposit). It's not recommended tho I hear.
  
  In addition, ~50K as overall financial situation as follows:
• PPF Investment certificate
• Residential property Evaluation

3. Purpose of travel (Other)
My dad wrote a letter (one page) introducing him and my mom i.e. profession and feasibility of travel. Talked about the purpose (my convocation), a basic tentative itinerary (3 weeks, but didn't mention expected expense).

Attached documents to demonstrate social ties like leave approval letter, grandparent's identity proof to show they live at the same address, Employment letter and my graduation letter.

4. Invitation Letter
I wrote this letter (1 page) explaining my basic information, one paragraph about inviting my parents to convocation, parent's information, and attached copies of my Work permit, Job Offer Letter and Graduation Letter.

Timelines
Online Application Submitted: March 17
Received Biometrics Letter: March 18
Biometrics submitted: March 28
Biometrics confirmation: March 29
Application reached IRCC office (through VAC): March 31
Approval received: April 2
