My cousin is a Sri Lankan doctor on a 2 year assignment in UK , he applied for a visitors visa to canada from uk and got rejected
, they had highlighted his immigration status, employment status and travel history as reason for rejection, so apparently he hasnt provided documents confirming he has to return back to work in Sri lanka ( which he is bound to do) at the end of the assignment in uk on Nov 2019 and also has not provided much documents on their europe travels and assets in Sri Lanka. he has decided to re apply and this are the cover letters he drafted for him and his wife.
i would be very thankful if someone can check these and let me know if theres anything that needs to be corrected
thank you in advance

Your visit is too close to the end of your training in the UK. It is always hard to get a visa when you are living in a 3rd country because you don’t have strong ties to your home country. The other issue is the fact that your whole family wants to go. If you want to apply again I would apply without your children. If you apply without your wife and children it would be even better.
