Visitor visa was refused

[Xavier Mexpal V]

Hi I'm Mex from Srilanka and I live in Hong Kong as a dependent status. I have applied the visitor visa for Canada and my visa was refused as these reasons based on travel history, purpose of visit and personal asset and financial status. Although I have visited several Asian countries including Japan, I have submitted my 3 months bank statement and company letter too. Please feel free to feed back what should I do in this moment for reapply?

What is your purpose of visit to Canada?

Main purpose to celebrate my 3rd year wedding anniversary and annual leave myself and my wife

Sadly 2k is not enough. With barely any other assets or family to tie you to Hong Kong or Sri Lanka, your chances of obtaining a tourist visa to Canada are very slim. You need to be financially established before you can take a trip for pleasure, your current situation makes you look like a possible overstay risk or asylum claimant even though you don't have such intentions.

I don't have those intentions, by the way I have shown my wife bank statements and her asset in Hong Kong

Agreed. Your finances aren’t enough to cover airfare for the 3 of you. Rule of thumb is $1000/week each plus airfare.

If I show up about 15K CAD for one month my ban

Agreed. Your finances aren’t enough to cover airfare for the 3 of you. Rule of thumb is $1000/week each plus airfare.
