Hello,

We recently applied for visiting visas for my family to visit us here in Canada. They approved my parents' application, but rejected my brother's application. Parents are retired and brother is working in India. Also, he is 27 years old and a bachelor. We had given all supporting documents from his employer - salary certificate, leave granting letter etc.

I really would like to get my brother's visa approved as well, so is there a way we can appeal this decision? I understand that in the past, people have had some success by requesting their MPs in Canada to contact the High Commission in Delhi to approve a visa.

Can someone with experience guide me on how to go about getting this done? Thanks in advance.

Congratulations on your parents visa...bad luck on brother's. What worked for me in the past 1) notarized letter from you stating that you do not have any intentions to immigrate your brother
2) Affedavit on say Rs 100 stamp paper from your brother stating he will not stay beyond granted period in Canada.
Also they must have sent the reasons they rejected your brother's visa e.g. Potential immigrant, not enough funds etc. so taking actions on those points accordingly may help as well.
Did you apply for single entry or multiple?

Good luck!

No need to notarize your invitation letter but writing a invitation letter stating that the person wont immigrate is a very good to have.

Affadevit will not help ur application.. instead ur brother should write a simple letter requesting visitor visa and also state no intention to migrate and should attach employment letter, property documents showing ties to india
