Hello guys.

Exactly a month ago, I was preparing documents to mail in my TRV application to VFS in Malaysia for my mum and I as we are travelling to visit my uncle (mum's brother) who is a citizen in Canada.

2 weeks later, mum's visa got approved and mine got rejected.

Reasons:
We cannot satisfy them that we will leave Canada at the end of my stay.
[x] Purpose of visit
[x] My family ties in Canada and also in my home country
[x] Current employment status
[x] My financial status

This is what I did.

Purpose of visit - I got an invitation from my uncle stating that he is inviting me and my mum over for a visit and the expenses will be on him.

My family ties - I am not married and I am under my mum's business employment. I do have a separate freelance business that generates about USD$10k a year but I didn't submit the details as I didn't think it was relevant.

Current employment status - I submitted my Employee Provident Fund (EPF) to prove that I am under my mum's business employment.

My financial status - I have more than RM20k in my bank account in Malaysia and I printed a certified true copy statement to show them.

Then the next 2 days, I prepared more documents to reapply again.

This time, my mum tried to help me by writing them a letter that I will be leaving Canada at the end of my stay by coming back to Malaysia to take over her business and assets.

I printed all the asset documents that belong to my mum like shops, houses, trading licenses and even investments like fixed deposits.

In addition, I tried to convince them that I am accompanying my mum to Canada as her visa got approved. I also sent them a copy of my mum's valid visa.

As if the docs seemed to be insufficient, I even printed all my financial statements of my freelance business.

Of course, as you already know, it was refused again for the 2nd time.

This time, their reasons given were:-
[x] Travel history (Now I am confused as this reason didn't appear in my 1st attempt of my visa application).
[x] Purpose of visit
[x] My family ties in Canada... blah.
[x] My financial status

They did approve of my 'Employment status' which appeared to be a reason during my 1st attempt.

About me.

I am under my mum's employment. I also have a freelance business.

Now...

I know they have the rights to refuse and I can definitely accept that even though I am a bit disappointed.

My questions now are (I really appreciate your advice):

[1] We (my mum and I) have a valid itinerary of Air Canada to travel at the end of May (28 May) and do you think there is anything I can do to get my visa approved this time? If yes, what should I do differently from my past 2 attempts?

[2] If I get my uncle (who is a citizen in Canada) to go the immigration department in Canada and convince them that he will be my guarantor that I will leave Canada at the end of my stay, will that work? How should he go about it?

[3] To be honest, I kinda accepted the fate this time round. If my mum takes a year or so to make arrangement for me to take over her business and assets in Malaysia, will that help if I apply for a TRV in the future? By then, I will have business, assets and investment under my name. Do you think they will keep track on a bad record as I have been refused twice?

[4] If I want to apply again at a highest possibility, what should I do?

I know this post is a bit long. But I am providing you as much info as possible so that you can help.

Thank you very much.

Clement

First of all, are you a minor? If you aren't then sending papers proving your mother has money adds little to no value to your application. This is about you not your mother. Also, when refering to money please use a currency we understand, for example CAN. Other currencies are not clear to all of us.

What is a "valid itinerary"? What is provided in there?

Don't do this. First of all I doubt your uncle would be heard. Second, he has done his part, there is nothing else he can do.

Yes. Right now they are your mom's assets.

From what I have seen when you have property under your name (and money) then you will have better chances than now.

Now his circumstances should be changed a lot, only then he can be accepted. because its very big negative mark if u have refused earlier. they have all the record and they match your new application with previous one, and they find similarities then its negative.
