Hi,

Please advice me. I am an Indian Citizen. I came to Canada on a Student Visa and studied for 2 years and now having a valid 2 and half year work permit and currently working at IBM full time. I tried to take my wife on a temporary resident visa and the visa officer rejected it saying they need proof that she will go back and so and so. Am i not eligible to take my wife here. Please advice me what is the right way to do it. I want to bring her here because we could only live together for 4 days after marriage. Please Advice me with this.
 
Establish the ties she had at home. Eg, if you have a child, leave child with grandparents. If she has work, provided letter from employer and show she only suspends her work. Visa officer has to first set up the tone that she is NOT going back to India and your docuemtns have to make it the other way.
 
Hi,

In addition to what the previous person has advised, also try to show financial ties to India, any land documents in your wife's name would go a longway in establishing this. Also try to show her bank accounts etc, this should prove that she will fend for herself and not be a burden on the canadian government, any fixed deposits that will mature in a year or two will also prove this point very well.

Hope you are successful this time and all the best.

Regards

Jai
 
Hi,

Did you apply for Spouse Open work permit or tourist visa? I think there are more chances of OWP getting approved than TRV. I applied for OWP and got first stage approval..Maybe you can also try that.
 
Thanks a lot for the advices. I really appreciate your help. One more quick question, Once rejected then when can i reply. how long do i need to wait to reply.
 
There is no official time between applications. The circumstances that can prove ties to home are the deciding factor. So unless things changed or you remembered something significant that you did not include in the previous application, it is best to wait until you can address the VO's reason(s) for refusal. Good Luck.
 
IF you plan to buy a return ticket, make sure it is refundable in case the the visa is again refused. I don't think having a return air ticket will do much to convince a VO of your ties to your home country. They figure you would either get a refund or walk away from the second half of the ticket. The real ties are property, spouse/children/, well paid, permanent job in your home country, savings and previous pleasure travel out of the country which shows you are established enough to afford holidays.

Yes, it really does not help to show home ties. In fact, it makes it more obvious that you are so desperate.
