I applied twice with an invitation latter from my friends, but they reject my visa, so whatever you write on latter, 5 out of 100 gets visa
i observe if anyone have invitation from some multinational company and applicant also in sound company then possible,
another example, one of my friends who is financial consultant in multinational company applied visa with invitation latter from Canadian breakage house, got visa within 15 days,

You don't really much to write in sample of invitation letter. Are you a Canadian citizen ?  Do you have 9 to 5 job ? If yes, since when ? Do you have own place to live?

thanks everyone for your reply.
Sarabi so you mean the chances are very small for my friend to get a visa if send him an invitation letter , can you tell me why??
Ashokcan , yes i am a canadian citizen , what do you mean 9 to 5 jobs , i have just 1 job and i am renting an apartment

While an invitation letter may help, it's really up to the person applying for the visit visa to qualify independently. To qualify, they must demonstrate that they have strong ties to their home country and have no plans to remain in Canada long term. This can be demonstrated through showing proof of asses, property, full time employment, family ties, school enrollment, etc.

They should also demonstrate that they have sufficient funds in their bank account to support themselves while here on vacation.
