To Leon and the others:
I am a Canadian citizen living in Toronto and I am about to apply for a supervisa for my father. My mother passed away 6 months ago, and my father is all alone in Pakistan. I want to make sure I send the right documents so I hope someone can guide me as I want to submit the form ASAP.
1. I have already prepared the letter of invitation.
2. I have gathered my 2012 Notice of Assesment showing income of 50,000 as proof of income.
3. I have sent my father copies of my canadian citizenship card and passport as proof of nationality.
4. I am enclosing a copy of my national ID card in pakistan showing my father's name as my parent.
5. I have begun gathering health insurance quotes for my father from insurance companies. I will buy
the insurance as soon as I can.
As always, there is a complication in my case. Firstly, I was laid off from work late last year and have spent the time since then
initially on EI and now I am going to school to finish a few courses for my Bachelors degree.
However, my notice of assesment is dates september 15th 2013, and my 2012 assesment shows the income amount of 50,000. I will however not be able to provide a job letter - is this okay for proof of income??
Please let me know urgently as well as anything else I should send. I really appreciate your help! Also, does anyone know how long islamabad takes for supervisa applications???
