Like the precious advice from Ifegy get married or he can apply for PR. Sometimes they deny visitor application because they believe the person is a potential PR and want to force a rethink. So getting married and applying for reunion or Permanent Residency application are his best bet for now. Even if it is a provincial nominee program. I heard Saskatchewan and Manitoba are dishing out Nominee like water. So consider those options.

Aduke02:
His case is a bit complicated - He had applied for a couple of study permits in the last 3 years that were denied due to proof of funds, limited employment prospects etc. His ties to Canada would be me, as we are dating and disclosed that in the application. He has been to the US and UK in the last 2 years on visits and returned back to his job which he has been employed at for about 6 years now - not a spectacular paying job, but not bad by nigerian standards. We struggled with the decision of disclosing our relationship and there were many conflicting posts on Nairaland and Canadavisa. In the end, we opted for the truth. I work in the same profession in Canada with a six-figure salary and i am a Canadian citizen. I provided a strong letter of invitation and supporting documents like my payslips, employment letter, lease and my Canadian passport. I knew his previous refusals may play a role in the outcome of this application but i was hoping for the best.

I'm wondering what you'd advise us to do as per next steps. Reconsideration/appeal? Or just see the relationship play out and when we are married, apply for the spousal visa? I'd appreciate your input on this.

I also got the mail yesterday but today, I got another mail of rejection.

The reason given is that they re not convinced I will leave Canada base on my purpose of visit.

It is appalling though, cos I attached both old and renewed US Visa with my application.Would I not prefer to stay in the US than Canada if my intention is not to return.

Please guru, what do u think went wrong?

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Markab: 11:32pm On Feb 08, 2020
I don't think airlines will allow you board with a one-way ticket on a tourist visa to any western country. I may be wrong though

Whichever way you go, why will you come back home if you are granted the visa?
