Please how much is the visa app fee as of now?

To say that someone is on apprenticeship or owns his own company, which one can serve as home tie?

To use my chequing accounts or savings acct, which is better?
(Note most of my debit, and credit happen here including my income)



I need your help Mr.Jawa.

for visa fee-http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/result.asp?countrySelect=NG&lob=trv

You can put both of your account statements.
Saying you own a company is good a home tie but you have to all your registration documents and tax papers.

Sarang:


Tax papers how do I get those?
But if an just like a student visits someone are they not more sure to come back?

Since you have a company you should be able to know what a tax clearance is. You should get them from FIRS. If you are going as a student, please go to https://www.nairaland.com/3649314/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/286

Good day all, please I need an advice in filling my application form.
Am applying to attend a convention of my club in Toronto. The club is a non profit making organisation. Will this fall under Tourism or Business?

Hi folks, have an aunt planning to visit some friends in Canada and asking me lots of questions. Since I don't have the answers maybe someone here can help. First, she's been denied visa to Ireland recently, will that affect this application? And what should she particularly keep in mind. Thanks.

Nah am not a student. It's for my friend who is an apprentice and just recently opened his company.

I will rephrase the other question. Being an apprentice, is it not more satisfying as a hometie just like a student in Nigeria going for a visit in Canada?
He opened a shop recently for electrical jobs, not a big company, and am sure he hasnt paid for any tax lately

Jawa:


Hi sarang, I see you are taking time with this application. It is wise.
Home tie is a combination of different factors. First be honest about his circumstances. Only then can you vet the application yourself unbiased. To answer your question, it actually depends. If he owns his own company, and have all documents to show for it and money inflow and outflow, a VO will be impressed especially if he has people employed. If he is an apprentice, he can easily decide to not come back unless this apprenticeship has significant values to him. If it is in line with his company, then it makes sense. If it is paying him big Money or the apprenticeship document agreement has significant prospects to his career to a VO, he is in luck. I cannot judge this because only you and your friend know his story.
For the account, you can use both if you want, you can never have excess meaningful documents. However, a checkings account takes priority here as a savings means next to nothing abroad. Infact, at TD, they wouldn't open a savings account for me unless I opened a checkings account which has an annoying minimum balance. checkings also helps a VO assess your credit worthiness. You can plan and set aside some money in your savings and mention in your letter of support that this specific amount set aside in your savings on a said date is for this sponsorship. A VO likes an applicant that plans well. Best of luck

Hello All,

I plan to have my baby in US, then fly to Canada a few weeks after having my baby and finally return to Nigeria from Canada.

My question is, with a valid Canada visitor Visa this multi city itinenary shouldn't be a problem at either POE right?
