Hi,

First, please turn off your caps lock when you reply. It's difficult to read your post.... and it's like yelling at the reader.


Your documents:
1. Is this bank account owned jointly by you and your wife? Or sole account? Personal account?

5. MY AND MY FAMILY PROPERTY PAPERS ( VALUED AT ABOUT 5 MILLION CAD$) CERTIFIED BY A VALUER

1. You can ONLY include property which is owned by yourself/your wife (for your/her TRV applications).... and/or jointly owned with your wife. Property owned by any other family member cannot be included.

2. In addition to the valuation certificate, you must include property ownership documents (translated into English, if required) + latest property tax receipt(s) + supporting evidence from Times Property/Citibank Property report/Cushman & Wakefield (for example) for indicative market rates to support the valuation rate.

Similar documents as the above for your land ownership.... including evidence of any income earned if it is agriculture land/any government permissions for construction.

6. MY AND MY FAMILY WEALTH STATEMENTS ( VALUED AT ABOUT 6 MILLION CAD$) CERTIFIED BY CHARTERED ACCOUNTANT

Again, only financial investments, etc owned by yourself/your wife (for your/her TRV applications).... and/or joint ownership with your wife can be included. Nothing else from other family members.

You must also include copies of for example, FDs, RDs, shares/dividend stubs, PPF, etc..... and not just the Wealth Certificate.

8. FINANCIALS AND 6 MONTHS BANK STATEMENT OF MY CA FIRM EARNING ABOUT 1 CR INR PER YEAR IN WHICH MY FAMILY HOLDS 33%

Again, provide evidence of the income earned by yourself and separately by your wife. You must clearly state the percentage which you own + the percentage which your wife owns in the CA firm.


From your host:
Copies of his/her passport + immigration status in Canada + NOA


Apart from the above, you must include:
1. An explanation/evidence if you are allowed to use company finances to pay for a personal visit

2. A detailed day-by-day itinerary with expense estimates like a typical tourist + for the wedding.... and show you can pay for this itinerary + airfare + incidentals

Will your host provide accommodation/pay for your travel and living expenses? Or will you be staying in a hotel?

3. How long is your visit?

4. You and your wife must provide some must-return-by-XX-date reason with evidence

5. Evidence of any contracts/on-going or future audits

6. Is your wife an active partner in your CA firm? Does she earn a salary through it?

7. Has your wife traveled abroad to countries requiring visas, for example, the UK/Schengen countries, etc?


Cheers

Hi,

Point 2:
No. Individual assets matter. If the property is joint ownership with non-accompanying family members then you must state your percentage share + total indicative market value of the property + value of your share


Point 4:
Also, include your wife's business/company registration documents + evidence to show it is actively trading


Point 8:
Hope your flight tickets are refundable/date change allowed..... even though you have excellent chances to get TRVs


Point 12:
Prepare an Explanation XX: My Travel History.... in a table format list each visa detail + entry/exit stamp dates + duration of each visit + purpose of each visit + scan each visa..... (chronological order, for the last 10 years)..... for yourself and your wife


Point 13:
Credit card statements (hopefully with low dues)


Other points:
1. No last-minute deposits, nothing borrowed for your bank statements. If you transfer any money between your accounts, you must provide an explanation/highlight the transactions

2. Hope you have factored in the current estimated processing time (for India applications) when you booked your tickets. Actual processing can be faster/take longer


Cheers

@Bryanna Thank you for your insight information, I was in Canada last year I flew to Toronto to get married, after the wedding I stayed in Canada for 6 months and got my TRV extended for 1 month and left Canada before my extended status expired, I am planning to apply for TRV again and spend my holiday in Western Canada with my wife, I am afraid they might reject my application because of the extension. I have a valid US visa I have also traveled to UK,JAPAN,SA in recent years.

also i have booked business class will that help??

I'm pretty sure the visa officer wouldn't be impressed with First Class/Business Class tickets arriving into Canada..... s/he would be more impressed with even Economy Class tickets to leave Canada

@alirz23

Does your spouse live in Canada? If yes, what's her immigration status?

When did you leave Canada?

 

[alirz23]
