Visit Visa Application (Using the new IRCC Portal)

[Shan121]

their bank balances, properties/home in their name etc can also be shown as strong ties…how old is your sister? does she have her own savings? if she is older than 22, she should put through separate application i believe (confirm this with other experienced members here)..you will have to be careful when putting through sister’s application, if she is unmarried(my guess) n doesn’t have a job& savings of her own, it will be considered only if application is strong (when shez travelling with parents n brother already in canada, her ties to home is very less)

Thank you

Hi, Did your parents underwent Medical test

No medical test.

 

[pdhanas]

No medical test.

Medical test is Mandatory right ?

Medical test is Mandatory right ?

Medical exam is not required for regular visitor
visa (visa holder can stay in Canada for 6 months maximum each time). Super visa (for grandparents and parents of PR / citizen to stay for 2 years) requires medical exam.

Parents applying on their own directly for visitor visa or son applying on their behalf -- Which one is better in terms of processing time?

Hello,
I am Permanent Resident applied for Citizenship. My fiance She is doing her Ph.d in India. I applied for her Visitor Visa recently. I applied under her account on February 9th, Biometric completed February 28th, Still waiting for more progress.

anyone else applied for Fiance and got visa? since fiance is not considered as legal spouse.
Also
Why do you need a visa?
To visit other family who are not listed above or friends for less than 6 months

Did I made mistake selecting above answer?

Me too. I applied for my fiance. Didn’t get any response after biometrics.

Did you apply as a representative on their behalf? I guess in such cases files are processed in Ottawa rather than local VOs.
