Elders in the house, pls I need your advice.
My family friend plans to invite me to Canada for about 4 months - Visiting visa. I stayed with her for over 7 years before she relocated to Canada.
She currently has a Job in canada and is also a PR.
She said can sponsor me.

The problem is we dont think her letter of invitation, her bank statements would be enough to convince them to give me 6months visiting visa.

I have no links (not married, no one to sponsor me from Nigeria neither do I have the amount needed for the trip in my account) she plans to plan to pay for the trip and all.

So we dont waste money applying for Visa, how best i can be approach this.

Your advice would be appreciated please.

I’m not a guru but:
1- Yes you may put both addresses if your residential address, for example, has no direct post mail information. In any case, if you have a valid email address, correspondence will be through your email. It’s stated in the imm form.

2- my opinion is that you deduct the cost of flight to and fro from the 3.2M and fill in the difference as amount available for your stay during the visit.

Success.

I clearly stated that she's coming to help take care of me and my new born as she has always been my support system; maybe I shouldn't have ��,and also to tour Canada but didn't list the places she will visit. She is 52years. I uploaded receipt of her house rent and shop and stated that it will be renewed when due. I have two siblings, one has completed his hnd at ibadan poly and the baby of the house is awaiting her admission to MITT here in Canada.

I don’t have PR o. Visit visa for birthing.

Hey Zee,

I don't know if you have gotten help to this but I just wanted to point out the reason your mum got rejected, I have read on so many thread and of the reasons for refusal is the fact that you stated YOUR MOM IS COMING TO HELP NANNY YOUR BABY. that singular line is the only reason or one of the reasons she got refused.

Remember, when you are applying for TRV, esp as someone visiting, YOU MUST NOT WORK , so stating that ,triggered that fact, which means when your mum gets to Canada she will be working as a NANNY.

To anybody applying for supervisa, never state in your letter that you are having a baby and your mom will come around to help you with the baby cos then you have to go back to work etc.

Disclaimer: I am no immigration expert, it's only through the research done over the months that I have noticed this pattern of rejection.


Victory is from God alone!

Your assertion is not correct as there is nothing wrong in stating that grandma is coming to take care of the new mum and the little one. People state that in their letters and they are granted Visas. She was denied because of something else. Maybe she did not have sufficient funds in her bank account at the time of application to prove that she can take care of both herself, grandma and little one for the number of weeks grandma will be spending with her.

Sholaystar4me:
Hi ty,

Maybe I didn't put it properly, if she stated in her letter that her mum is coming to Canada to help take care of her baby WHILE SHE GOES BACK TO WORK , this might be a red flag. And again, I might be wrong

ttmacoy:
Inviting you to come for 4 months is a huge red flag. Suggests you don’t have a job in Nigeria are going to hustle if not how many people will leave their busy lives to go stay with a friend for 4 months in another country?

Itsrachel:

So fine, I would say I plan to stay for 2 weeks, which docs can I and my sponsor provide to ensure or give me a good chance of getting a visa if I say I want to stay to 2 weeks

Alutaprophet:
Good day house, i just want to confirm the possibility of Canada VO to decide on an online TRV application within just 3days of submission of the application.
Need expert opinion on this.

Echinedu1:



Actually you are correct but one thing we need understand very well it not only one visa officer looking at numerous application and it does not mean because visa officer A overlook a particular issue officer B will overlook it too ,in canada nanny is classified as work so ur mum Cannot come to canada to take care of your kid taking up the place of nanny but she can come to visit her grandchildren even with a super visa you cannot work.
