Hey everyone,

In the past, I applied twice for a Canadian visa and was refused on the grounds of insufficient ties to India. That was a fair assessment back then. However, things have changed significantly in my life since those applications.

my earlier posts or threads explains more about my past immigration history with Canada. I’ll be honest—I was quite naive and inexperienced when I made some of those earlier decisions. I’ve made mistakes, and I completely acknowledge that.



Today, I’m well-settled in India. I’m in a committed relationship, I’ve purchased a house, and I’ve established and am running a growing food business. I also have passive income from rentals and other responsibilities that tie me deeply to my current life here. While I’m not married, I’m emotionally and practically grounded where I am.



Right now, I’m only looking to visit Canada briefly—about 10 to 14 days—to see my mother. With everything going on here (my business, rental management, house-related matters), relocating is not even an option for me.


I understand that some people may have strong opinions based on my past. Some even felt I tried to take advantage of the system. I want to clarify that nothing was done with bad intent—only out of confusion and desperation at a difficult time in life. I’ve learned a lot since then and have built a more stable and responsible life.


That said, I’m not very up to date on how visa approvals are going these days. If anyone has advice, insights, or just honest input, I’d really appreciate it.


Thanks for reading.
 
Do you have a family in India? A committed relationship is really hard to demonstrate as a tie.
I don’t have family in India. My sister younger brother and mother in Canada. I live here and my gf lives in Germany. I have travel history to turkey, Germany and uae
 
Is it worth a try considering change in circumstances. Very briefly. I have a business house and rental income. Travel history and been 5 years and 7 months in India

You can apply and may be approved but you are single with no family ties. Your mom lives in Canada. Committed relationship is not married. Good luck.
 
Thanks a bunch
All rejections have same reasons that you dont have a tie. I have seen people ith no ties or even lesser tie compared to you and still gets visitor visa. Its all about thier quota . in 2024 it was a highest rejection ratio then before. May be they are open to give more visas after the elections or in 2025. Keep trying and you will definitely get it. Prepare a truthful strong letter to describe purpose of vist and strong reason to return back like comitment in business and assets and other strong reasons like if you have grandparents and you have to take care of them etc. all the best

@CanGoldDigger @Naturgrl How much is a general guideline for showing proof of funds when you are visiting for 12-14 days and you have a sponsor who will help with food accommodation and stay during the stay in canada
$10k cash in your own personal bank account with statements showing that for last 4 months. There is no sponsorship for a TRV.
