Below is my experience and few cents for those who are applying/thinking to apply for their's spouse's TRV when her/his PR application is in process.''

Background:
  • Rejected TRV before marriage for following reasons:
  • Travel history
  • Strong ties to home country
  • Current status of employment
  • No T4 slips or IT documents of host (came to know after applying for GCMS notes)
Steps I took later:
  • Got married after few months of TRV rejection.
  • I was thinking of doing a court marriage and then immediately applying for PR but later dropped this idea as NDVO is pretty rigid about traditional norms followed while getting married.
  • So got married in a a traditional manner.
  • After applying for PR I thought that NDVO will process and finalize applications in ~ 6 months(at-least hoping for background check get started) but I was wrong.
  • I am still waiting for my wife's PR application to get finalized.
  • After applying for spousal PR I waited for 4 months and then decided (finally convinced my wife) to apply for TRV again.(Trust me this was really tough having 1st TRV rejection in place and Spousal PR also in process.
  • Plus many applicants on canadavisa forum were little hesitant to apply again rather applying for TRV itself.
  • But as they say H.O.P.E.(Hold On till Pain Ends) is the thing which drives you through tough phase there were some members who encouraged idea of applying again with strong inputs).
Documents from the applicant:
  • NOC letter from her employer.
  • Leave approval letter from immediate manager/boss
  • Aadhar Card copy
  • Company employee ID
  • Income tax return documents for last 2 years.
  • Salary slips for last 6 months.
  • Car ownership document.
  • Home ownership document(index 2 copy and agreement between buyer and seller)
  • Notarized affidavit stating :
  • Financial assets (such as gold jewelries, fixed deposits and total balance in saving account till date)
  • Commitment that applicant is coming back after proposed stay.
  • Previous air travel boarding pass and eticket scanned copy (to prove travel history in the past)
  • Passport scanned copy showing immigration stamps.
  • Purpose of travel : wedding reception party
  • Proposed stay (I have mentioned 2 months)
  • Bookings such as hotels, reception dinner party event details (including invitation card and guest list with their contact details)
  • Return ticket booking.
  • Travel itinerary showing date to date planning when my wife will be in Canada (from airport pickup --> weekend trip details --> airport drop off :))
  • Based on points mentioned on this link "http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/temp/visa/processing/index.asp"""I have drafted a letter which has my stand for every point mentioned in above URL. The points were :
  • Purpose of visit
  • Length of proposed stay in Canada
  • Travel history
  • Strong ties (Family, Job, assets like real estate property, car) to home country(India)
  • Current employment situation + Personal assets and financial status to carry out my stay in Canada
  • Immigration status (In-Process PR application and approved Sponsorship)
  • Understanding of liability towards CIC rules and regulations.
  • Travel itinerary
A Strong letter of explanation mentioning our relationship history, how we got married and explaining strong ties to home country such as :
  • Commitment towards Job,
  • Parents and In laws still in home country,
  • PR application (with file number) is still in process and wont do anything which will put PR application at risk.
  • Marriage certificate for the proof of relationship plus scanned copies of photos (10 photos) of our marriage ceremony and few honeymoon pics.
  • Proof of medical exam ( attached same document which I attached to PR application as it was not old)
Supporting letter for previous TRV refusal which includes:
  • Tabular representation of each refusal reason and how the situation is improved while applying again.
  • Declaration about understanding of CIC's TRV regulations and its impact on future life in Canada.
  • Medical health insurance purchase receipt. (A health insurance plan for 2 months from manulife)
Documents from host:
  • PR scanned copy
  • Sponsorship approval document (very important)
  • Scanned passport showing immigration stamps (in case if visa office matches with my wife's passport)')
  • Marriage certificate
  • T4 copies (this was mentioned in GCMS notes of previous TRV application of my wife)
  • Salary slips of last 4 months
  • Letter from employer showing status of job, base salary start date etc.
  • Lease copy of rented apartment
  • Letter from landlord stating about my stay.
  • Reception dinner party hall booking confirmation with exact date and time and # of guest attending.
  • Photos of applicant and forms filled correctly.
Application Details:
  • Date I applied : 10th April 2017
  • The official processing time was 22 days.
  • But it took more than that (almost 45 days. Pretty lengthy... yeah!)
  • I contacted local MP for delay after processing time has passed. I must say that the local MP office was pretty helpful and I truly appreciate their help throughout the process. they had sent inquiry to NDVO office as well.
  • Finally after long wait I saw the "original passport request" from CIC. I cant describe this moment in words :)
I am really thankful to all members here who helped me throughout the process.

I applied myself. My case was pretty straightforward but the only tricky part was previous TRV refusal and currently ongoing spousal PR application.

Hi,

Can you tell me the dox you gave for TRV to convince CIC about the strong ties to home country.
I am in a similar situation where my PR is in process and I plan to apply for TRV next month.


Thanks!

Rejected TRV while spouse sponsorship is already applied (yet to receive AOR). Reason for rejection: Family ties in Canada / Financial / Travel History (even though sufficient financial information and travel history was provided).
Is it advisable to re-apply TRV? Can that impact/affect PR file?

That’s sad. After how many days of PR application you applied for TRV? And what supporting documents you included?
