I submitted a new application for a visitor visa from Saudi Arabia on April 4, and yesterday it was rejected because of 179b. The purpose of the visit was to attend a conference related to my work. I work in Saudi Arabia, and I have a job, family, and children in schools in Saudi Arabia. I submitted their residency papers and submitted an account statement with more than 50 thousand Canadian dollars, It is salaries for a long period, not deposits in a short period, and the account statement has more than 200 transactions over four months. Also, I submitted all the papers that prove that I will leave after the conference. However, the officer says that he is not satisfied with my return; FYI, I submitted an employment letter containing that company confirmed that it guarantees my return after the conference and the invitation letter from the conference. I do not know what I can do. Do I submit a new application knowing that there is no other documents that could be submitted.

I need your advice; what can I do?

Canada's officers are mother fucker.
