Tips for Visitor Visa of Parents
By:

It is quite easy to get Visitor Visa for parents. If you provide enough documents from your side and your parent show proper documents from their side, usually they will get Visa.

What you (sponsor) need to provide?


  • Last Year’s Income-tax assessment notice or T4 for yourself

  • Last Year’s Income-tax assessment notice of T4 for your spouse (please provide this even though you have more than enough income, they sometimes asks for this even though you might be earning 100,000 per year!)

  • Current years latest pay slip for yourself
    Current years latest pay slip for your spouse

  • Photocopy of your lading papers and passport

  • One of your utility bills, just for showing your place of resident

  • One sponsor letter (not necessarily be notorized, but you can do it. (Format for sponsor letter is given below)


What your parent should provide?


  • Their income statements

  • If farmer – copies of 7/12 and 8A (or whatever)

  • Copies of property they own

  • Job records if any.

  • Passport (of course!)



What is best method for applying?

Sending all papers and passport by post! For many people this sounds weird but it is true. For senior citizens Canadian government takes lot of care and they are not suppose to visit the embassy. They can, but it is not required and anyway not going to change their decision. So it is my humble advise to send application by post.

A lease would have helped.
The phone and Internet bill don't prove anything.

However, that is not the only thing that they will look at.
They will also look at other things like how long you have been in Canada, your assets, job, overall financial standing, etc.
If everything else is ok, your lease may not be a big factor.

Of course, in your invite letter you will have to say that your relatives will be living with you at your address.

I cannot say whether or not it will be a problem - the only way to know is to apply.
If everything else is satisfactory, then it it should not be an issue.
Even if they have questions about where your relatives will stay in Canada, they will probably ask the applicant (your relatives) to provide a written explanation.
It is highly unlikely that they will refuse the case outright just because a lease is missing.
But then Canadian consulates are very uncaring and inconsiderate at times - so there is no telling what they will do.
The only way to know is to apply !
