Hello Nairalanders,

This is my first post in a looong time and I salute everybody in the house.

My parents and brother applied for visitor visa to visit me since last August but no response till now. I am reading here and discovered I might have to apply through the new portal.

The process in the new portal has started and managed all of their application in a group. However, when they completed all the forms, only the following documents were asked to be uploaded.

Parents (compulsory doc)
-National ID card
-Data page
-Marriage cert

Optional
-Consent personal information
-Employment letter (strange, since they are both retired)
-Additional docs


Brother (Compulsory doc)
Data page

Optional
-Consent personal information
-Employment letter (even the description of this letter says "from employer in Canada". Sooo strange)
-Additional docs

I am just a little confused. There is no ask of my invitation letter, my canadian passport, my bank statement (since I will be sponsoring them for flights and staying with me) and other documents that prove ties back to Nigeria. This is the 2nd time I am applying for them and the process was a little different then and more documents and forms were needed to be provided . First time was in 2018, they were all given visas and they only spent 3 weeks here but visas are now expired

Profiles
Parents are retired
Brother is in post grad school in nigeria and also working, he is single and has no national identity card
I am inviting them and I am a Canadian Citizen

Thanks in advance

Greetings...

Guess you are PR/Citizen. IRCC can always get your details, they don’t need to ask.

Secondly, the optional ones is an opportunity to upload all the documents(like you mentioned) you think will aid the application.

The IT apps they upgraded to has made the new portal easier and more concise.

Employment letter in Canada, I think you can use sponsor’s employment letter or CAC documents if in business, whether the person is in Canada or outside.

It will sure end in Praise!

Please reapply ASAP using the new portal. To the best of my knowledge, medicals is not required for visitor visa.

Thank you. But will I have to pay another fee and start the process all over again ?
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by ami213: 8:02am On Mar 13, 2022
You are starting the process all over and you are also paying new application fee except for Biometrics. In your new application do quote your old UCI.

Good afternoon please I would like to know the chances of getting a visiting visa if am going to visit my brother who is a student.
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by ami213: 4:26pm On Mar 13, 2022
No one can say for sure! Whether your application will be approved or refused depends on how well packaged it is.

Hello house

My fiancé is a Canadian citizen and we are getting married in few weeks. The plan is to start processing my relocation immediately after the wedding. Spousal sponsorship for PR takes 12 months minimum, so we want to try the temporary visa route. I have the following questions

1. How soon after the wedding is it okay to apply for a visitors visa? And can we apply for both spousal sponsorship and temporary visa at the same time?
2. What documents do I need to put together to ensure a successful temporary visa application?

Please help. Thank you

Hello everyone, I was recently issued a US tourist visa, while my wife qualifies for the ESTA program. We plan on visiting Toronto since it's closer to our destination in the US. I am a German resident permit holder, but she is a German citizen. What are the chances of me getting the visa? Also, how do I go about it?

Your chance of getting it is high if you package your application well.


Include;
-cover / introduction letter

-your wife passport data page and your German residency card.

- Travel itinerary showing your family proposed US and Canada visit.

-Your marriage certificate & family photos

-Your financial statement

just visit the Canada immigration website and apply. They cant deny you with this kind of profile. No one with residency in Germany will go over stay in Canada

Is like IRCC is not attending to individual visiting application as yet. Family reunion is the common PPRs I noticed.

Let's hope for the best by end of this month. It will end in praise.
