Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by josephb(m): 12:28pm On Mar 22, 2023
Hi,

In my own opinion, it's best to use both accounts, while you demonstrate funds in your savings account as the means of sustenance (to fund your visit), the company account(s) and documents can stand as tie to your country.

Hi,

I guess your Eligibility just started not quite long, it's okay to wait a little more since you have waited for more than a year and a half.

Hello,

Follow the process as highlighted on the IRCC portal. I will assume they are coming purposely to visit you, so their visa application will be under the category of a family visit. And as you are a temporary resident in Canada, you will need to present the following documents:

Letter of invitation - A letter written by you to your parents. Details of expected info are below:
Travel History - A clear copy of 1 or more of the following: Your parent's previous passports and/or visas (used within the last 10 years to travel outside Nigeria), Entry and exit stamps, Study and/or work permits that indicate their duration outside Nigeria, Expired or Valid visas.
Itinerary - Copies of any of the following: flight details and hotel reservations - Very Important.
Account statement of your parents - I want to believe that your dad will be the main applicant and mum will be his spouse, Bank name and contact of his account (Just give MBS for this), Proof it is their account - Their name and address on the statement show that the account is theirs, Account details - At least 6 months of account details, including balances, helps IRCC understand their financial situation.
Employer information - If dad and/or mum still working, A letter from his/her employer can confirm that they have a stable job and will return to it. It can also show that his/her employer supports his/her visit to Canada. The letter should be printed on his/her employer’s official letterhead.
A clear color copy of his & her valid passport or travel document that he/she'll use to travel to Canada.
A completed IMM 5476- Use of a representative (IMM 5476)form - I believe you will be the one that will apply on behalf of the applicant. You need to complete this form.
A completed IMM 5645 form - This is where you will specify that his spouse, your mum will be accompanying him.

You need to scan all the pages of the passports both current and expired and join them together to attach them to the section. Also, please, let them show the financial capacity to take care of their trip themselves even if you are the one planning to house them. Tie to the home country is key, show more interest on the letter for them to come back home to. There is a section for additional document, this is where the letter of explanation will come in and if there are property documents/ business occupying their attention back home, you want to put them there together. Make sure the main applicant is any one of them that has a higher range in terms of finance/travel experience. Then your mum will be his accompanying spouse. Your letter of explanation should also be detailed and clear with purpose of visit detailed.

Alternatively is for them to visit as a tourist, on this, you do not need to issue any letter of invitation. Here, travel history, itinerary, account statement, passport, Filled use of a representative (IMM 5476) form, Authority to release personal information to a designated individual (IMM 5475) form and completed Family information (IMM 5645) will suffice.

The guru's in the house can add what I might've missed.

Good luck!


Let me quote this so I can always come back to this very important information. Thanks 🙏

Good morning,

I will suggest you use your personal account that has your name as it is on your passport. 10M naira(equivalent to > 25,000 cad officially) is more than enough if you are a tourist/Visitor for just 1 month, depending on your planned stay. I am not sure if you are the single signatory to your company account but know that it is a separate entity to you. However, on the additional documents, you can include the company account also to show a strong tie to your home country. If your statement is busy and shows a consistent business transaction, you pay tax, and have all related company registration documents, it is more than enough tie to bring you back to your country in addition to your family.

Nevertheless, make sure you clearly explain in your letter of explanation. You scan the letter of explanation on the first page and list the sequence of documents in it.

They are not required for Visiting/Tourist. However, if you have them and they are cool, you can add them to the additional document section.

Your application is in the final stage because your application status shows that your eligibility has started. Also, they started processing your background check.

Because your application is nearing completion, you might want to hold off on submitting a new one, but if you are willing to submit a new one, don't cancel or withdraw your initial application.

Yes it's not listed on the webpage in the link. I was surprised at the simplicity as compared to when I applied some years back so I logged into my IRCC account and saw that the detailed instructions are still there. That's where he got the document list he's referring to:

Temporary Residents
If you are visiting Canada, you must prove that you can support yourself and the family members who will be with you while you are in Canada. Provide as many of these documents as you can:

your bank statements for the past four months
a bank draft in convertible currency
pay stubs
an employment letter
proof of assets or business
proof of payment of tuition and accommodation fees
tax reports, declarations or statements
proof of a student/education loan from a financial institution
a letter from the person or institution providing you with money
proof of funding paid from within Canada, if you have a scholarship or are in a Canadian-funded educational program
proof of a Canadian bank account in your name if money has been transferred to Canada
