Hello, I hope you guys are doing well, actually my brother is graduating this November and its really a big moment for us, he already has his convocation date decided which is in November and has invited me and my dad to join it, me and my dad both want to attend it and visit Canada at the same time for like 2 months, my dad is a retired govt officer with lot of properties in his name. funds and bank statement also won't be an issue.
The thing it that m dependent on my dad as m still a student and currently studying acca in Pakistan, my age is 22 years old and I don't have any major travel history to work with, all I can show is the institute I am currently studying at and my willingness to visit my brother convocation. moreover my dad is like 62 years old and he needs to be look after cuz of his medical conditions as well, he can't stay alone in anyplace at any time, so its literally impossible for him to travel alone as well. what I want to know is how I can make sure that both our visit visas get accepted and what extra steps I can take to make the probability of our visa getting rejected as low as possible.
Any insight from someone who has a little exp in this matter would really be appreciated as this matters a lot to me, if my visa get rejected than my father can't go as well even if he get his visa so any help would mean a lot to me. Thank you, Stay blessed.
 
If you are 22 then you are not a dependant. So you show your own funds, travel history, ties to return (registration and paid tuition to school) and valid reasons to travel. Two month visit is way too long.

Your dad needing to be looked after is not a valid reason. In fact, if this is stated then IRCC may wonder how much care he needs and his medical history.

  • Keep visit to two weeks
  • Show your own bank statements to show that you can come to Canada
  • Brother provides invitation letter saying he hopes that you both can come for his convocation
  • Don’t mention that your dad needs care or has medical condition
