TRV Reapplication reasons

[aninanda]

My status : work-permit

My girlfriend had applied for a TRV application in March requesting to visit me in July. She lives in the US on a H1-B visa.

But given the backlog and post Sept-7 changes...we are thinking on reapplying the visa as we think the visa is in a backlog.

Reason for previous application:

1. Visiting boyfriend during Christmas
2. Mental health of both of us being affected as we both have been in a long -distance relationship since a year.( We plan to have letters from both our therapists to acknowledge that)
3. H1-B renewal. Her H1b renewal and stamping is due and she intends to go back to US for her job. She works as an research scientist for Amazon.

My question:

Can some one advice if these reasons (especially mental health and H1b renewal) as valid reasons for a new applications?

Information around re-application is scarce and so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Have you met in person before? What is your status in Canada? When does her status in the US expire?

So she was declared on your application and has been included on your PR application as common law?

hey @canuck78 No i am in Canada on a work-permit. So didnt need to declare here on that application

Yes you needed to declare your common law on your WP application or update your application before you landed if you hit the 1 year mark of living together continuously before landing,

 

[aninanda]

No I could declare common law, as we hadnt lived continuously for a year. Hence that wasnt eligible

Did you live together for a year before you landed in Canada?

 

[aninanda]
