Discrmination - Come on give me a break.

My father in Law was here with us last year. Eventhough he has not been working for many years and my mother in law passed away, he was able to get a visa. No problems. He was the best case to be denied a visa. No job, no income, no family ties and still got a visa.

Key : You need to present your case properly. I have said this before on CD.

You need to prove that you ( the person in Canada ) has a good salary + you need to tell the consulate that you are taking full responsibilty of the person who is coming. You will bear all expenses whether it is housing / food and most important medical. This is something like a legal undetaking.

Hope that makes sense.

In my experience, it is six of one and half a dozen of another.

Facts :

a. Both myself and my wife own a house in Canada , earn $ 100 k togeather .

b. My mother is a house wife and my father is retired, he used to have a business. They rent a house.

c. My mother in law is a house wife and my father in law is a retired govt official. They own a house.

d. All are Senior citizens over 65.

e. Exactly same documents provided to both these couples.

End Result : My parents got single entry visa with a stipulation of medical.
My inlaws got 5 years multiple entry visa with no stipulation for medical.

My 2 cents on the issue : a. High Commission knows that the boy's parents are more likely to immigrate than the girl's parents.

b. My parents who did not have physical property are also liable to stay back though the fact of the matter is my parents who have been here twice only come for summer and would never want to stay here permenantly.

Does giving a declaration / affidavit/ notary help if we state that these guys will not immigrate, but please spare them the trouble of applying for a visa every 6 months.

All comments welcome.
