Hello everyone,
I’ve looked up many threads but couldn’t find any info relating my situation so I wanted to ask.
What are the chances for me to get a tourist visa to visit my Permanent Resident husband in Canada?
About me:
I work in Turkey (my home country), I have a steady job that pays well. I travel all around the world because of my job. I have traveled all Europe, Canada, USA, UK, etc... so I have a good travel history. I own a house in my home country. All my family lives in Turkey. I have enough money in my bank account to show. I had Canadian tourist visa before but its expired now. I have stayed in Canada before about 10 months (I went there to visit my husband and applied to extend my stay while I was in Canada it was approved and they sent me a visitor record) I left Canada around 5 months before my visitor record has expired.
Now my only intention is to visit my husband again. We will apply for spousal sponsorship later since he’s about to be a citizen in Canada, we thought it might be better to apply after he’s a Citizen. Until then I just want to visit him, I also have visited him before around five times but I got the visa when we weren’t married so it was easy to get the visa back then.
What do you think? Would I be able to satisfy the officer that I have strong ties to my home country so I won’t stay in Canada? Anyone else had similar situation? What else would you recommend me?
Thank you very much in advance!
