I got approved for a tourist visa, visa validity is from October 30, 2012 to January 5, 2013. The invitation letter I submitted in the embassy stated that I am planning to stay in canada from Dec. 3 to 23, 2012. Is it possible to stay longer than the date stated in the invitation letter. Because I am planning to get a return ticket on dec. 27 instead of dec. 23.
Hello,
I tried sending you a private mail but can't figure out how to. I just have a few questions and hopefully you can help me out.
First, I am inviting my sister to visit Canada. I will be giving birth in April 2013 and would want my sister to help me with the baby while I finish my studies. I am a permanent resident, married to a Canadian. We would want her to come from March to July. She is a university student in the Philippines, 22 year old, never been married, and have not work because she goes to school. I wonder if she, also, will be approved for the visa. What do you think? We will be paying for her entire expenses. My husband and I make decent money to be able to afford her accommodations and other expenses. My most important question is: WHAT AMOUNT TO PUT IN THE "FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR MY STAY (CAD)? it is one of the question from the application. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you declare? What was your source/s for this fund? Was it your own savings or assets? or is it from your invitee? If we know what amount and we will put it on the application, will the visa office ask my sister for proof of this fund? or is it enough that we will swear on our letter that we will pay for her expenses?
I hope you can help me answer all these questions. I will also appreciate any suggestions that you think will be helpful in our process. Thank you so much!!!!
