I will only invite my parents this time.
1) The application only goes to supervisa if I select stay > 6 months, however my parents can only stay for a month. Can I mention the intended travel duration as 1 month within the application ? Will that make them ineligible for super visa ?
2) As they have already given biometrics last month for VV, they wouldn't have to do it again right ?
3) Approximately how much is considered a good proof of funds to support one month of stay for parents in supervise ?
1. You can say 6 months for a supervisa and they can just come for one month. They need to pass medical and get a year of health insurance.
2. No need to redo.
3. Well you need to meet LICO for all of them plus any children and spouse. Any cash in the bank from them will help their application.

Since they have a rejection they still need to address reasons for refusal.
 
In my VV application I have mentioned that my father cannot be out for more than 1 month as he has his business commitments. Is this not contradicting if I mention 6 months now ? Basically, I just want them to visit me for a month and I am using supervisa only because I want IRCC to consider my funds.

Explain that due to limited personal funds and previous TRV refusal you have opted to apply for a supervisa although they only wish to visit for 1 month.

That is the plan, I am just worried that it should not make the application ineligible and face another rejection. Have you seen any other super visa applications which mentioned less than 6 months in the form or invitation approved ?

Yes they get approved.
 
Thanks. And I should mention this same duration both in the application and invitation letter ?

In order to be considered for a supervisa pretty sure you have to select an over 6 month visit in the application.

I meant the dates where I mention when they will enter and leave after I select the super visa option. That can be less than 6 months right ?
 
  • Category - Supervisa for parents
  • Duration - 1 month
  • I make well above LICO for 4 members (my, spouse and parents) - T4 & NOA around 200k - Do i need to show both ?
  • I have around 50-60k in Canadian savings account that I can show. I also have investments in TFSA, do i need to show that ?
  • Pre-Medical and Health insurance will be done next week.
  • Parents ties to home country
    • My younger brother and step-grandmother stay in the same house and will still be in home country. Parents will need to go back to support aged step-grandmother
    • CA net worth certificate for dad so show assets in the form of land, house, gold (>100k) and some personal liquid funds (less than 5k-excluding business account)
    • My dad runs the family business (owned by my step-grandmother) and cannot leave it unmanaged for long - Statement to show transactions from business account to personal account and letter confirming that my dad manages the business. Since it is within family, there is no formal salary structure.
    • My mom is a housewife and has gold in terms of assets but not liquid funds etc.
  • I will mention in invitation that applying for SV due to limited liquid funds with parents but the duration of visit is still 1 month
In SV, are my proof of funds enough or do parents still need to show proof of funds ? My mom is a housewife, to establish her ties, is her son and mother-in-law being in hometown enough ?
I have explained the details above, any suggestions or concerns are appreciated. Thank you.

Does it help if I post it in a new thread for suggestions from people facing similar situation ? I want to make sure I don't haste and want to avoid rejection this time as it has been very frustrating

NOA and proof of savings is fine for you. Your parents should include proof of their own personal savings. They can include proof of property but not gold. Unless your brother is under 22 he is not a tie neither is your step grandmother but you can mention they live together and provide care for them.

Hey! I went through your post. I am myself in similar kind of situation. I applied for my parents visitor visa on 26th of March. Got the refusal on 9th of April. Stating:

• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as required by paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR (https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/SOR-2002-227/ section-179.html). I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will leave Canada, based on the following factors:

• Your assets and financial situation are insufficient to support the stated purpose of travel for yourself (and any accompanying family member(s), if applicable).

• The purpose of your visit to Canada is not consistent with a temporary stay given the details you have provided in your application.


My parents are both earning. I provided there Paystubs, Employment and NOC letter, ITR, Bank statements (They do not have liquid funds in their savings, but still their combined amount was around 15k, and rest was in Mutual Funds around 35k), Provided CA evaluation certificate for the property and Gold they own. There stay was for 1 month and 10 days. My sister is married lives in india. But she is a PR of Canada (Had to move back to india because of husband and in-laws. She did her post grad from Canada itself). They have the property and job to show their ties to home country. In invitation letter I stated that me and my husband will be taking care of all their expenses during their stay. We both are employed, provided all the related documents. Our combined bank balance was 80k. Not sure what more I could have done.

I do not wish to face the rejection again.

My question for you is did apply for SV? I am also thinking for the same. But if they reject SV as well I have no idea how we will turn the decision around. I have ordered the GCMS notes. Still waiting on them.

Any suggestion any help will be truly appreciated.

Usually a minimum of $10k per person (CASH, not MF) is the baseline for a 2-3 week visit. So funds are too low. Your letter should state that they are visiting you but they can support themselves. Your funds not relevant. 1.5 months is a long time without strong ties as they have no family ties.

Should I go for SV then? So that my income and savings are considered.
What length of stay should I show as both of them are working if applying for SV?

What are the things that I should take care of not face another rejection?

Any help would be appreciated

If eligible for SV meeting LICO (NOA) then may be the better option. They need to pass the medical and purchase one year of health insurance so ask for a 6 month visit.
